Why Muslims Are Violent
www.offgridblogger.wordpress.com ^ | November 18, 2015 | Off Grid Blogger

Islam is the most violent religion in the world. Indeed, Islam has been spread by violence since its inception. What explains this?

This is pretty straight forward folks. There are peaceful Muslims, but there is no such thing as peaceful Islam. Violence is not an aberration in Islam—it is DOCTRINE. Dozens of passages in the Quran exhort Muslims to hate or kill or terrorize infidels (non-Muslims) wherever they find them. For examples, see Suras 2:190-193, 2:216, 2:244, 3:56, 3:142, 3:151, 4:24 (rape of captive women); 4:56, 4:74 (beheading), 4:76, 4:84, 4:89, 4:91, 4:95, 4:104, 5:51 (take no Jews or Christians as friends); 5:32-38, 7:96-99, 8:12-15 (beheading), 8:39, 8:57-60, 8:65-67, 9:5, 9:14, 9:20-30, 9:38-41, 9:73, 9:88, 9:111, 9:123, 17:16, 18:65-81, 21:44, 22:18-22, 25:52, 33:60-62, 47:3-4 (beheading), 47:35, 48:16-17, 48:29, 61:4, and 66:8-12. These are the passages that jihadists quote in defense of their horrible atrocities. Unlike the Old Testament, violence in the Quran is mostly open-ended, that is, not restrained by the historical context of the surrounding events.

While there are passages that Muslims point to that might suggest peaceful solutions (Suras 2:190, 2:256, 5:8, 5:28, 5:32, 8:61, 29:46, 41:34, 109:6), these are overwhelmed by the violent ones. Indeed, the peaceful passages were abrogated (Sura 2:106), i.e. superseded, by the violent commands because the violent ones were written later, after Muhammad moved to Medina (from Mecca). Anyone who wants to commit acts of violence has perfect justification for doing so from the Quran. There is nothing in the Quran comparable to the teachings of Jesus to TURN THE OTHER CHEEK and to LOVE EVEN YOUR ENEMIES.

Take the time to look these passages up for yourself. Below is a site that has three translations of the Quran side-by-side. (Note: English translators of the Quran sometimes try to soften the true Arabic meaning of some of these passages. For example, to "fight" really means to kill in Arabic.)

Here is a short video on the Quran and its violent message:

In addition to the Quran are the hadiths. These are collections of sayings and actions of Muhammad. Indeed, Muhammad was one of the most violent men in history, setting the example for all Muslims to follow. See this link:

http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/quran/023-violence.htm

Muslims have been spreading their religion by violence since the inception of the religion, not only because of the commands in the Quran, but also because of the example of Muhammad. Here is a list of modern terror attacks by Muslims:

Muslims are “frustrated” generationally and they take their frustrations out by killing people.

They're "Frustrated" because the host country hasn't implemented Shariah Law, yet.

Here is a very short video of muslims describing why they are all extremists.

Excerpts from a muslim “peace” conference in Norway, Oct. 2013.

Here they all admit that all muslims are radicals and extremists!

“Obama says that it is OUR fault. We cause them to be violent”

This is exactly what a muslim would say. They believe that we cause them to be violent because we are either:
1) not a muslim, or
2) not a dhimmi.

Once we become one or the other above then the violence will stop.

Until then, we will cause muslims to be violent.

I have a 3rd way. This isn’t the muslim way though - exterminate muslims. No muslims, no violence.

It sounded like what I read when I open my Bible. I was slightly amazed, however I knew what I was listening to was only a small portion of the koran, and that those portions are eclipsed by the other portions that convince young people to strap on explosive vests.

When Muhammed was in Mecca and started Islam, and was getting messages from Allah thru the angel Gabriel which were writen down and started the Koran, the religion was somewhat tolerant of Infidels and their beliefs.

Muhammed aggravated a lot of Kafirs (Unbelievers) in Mecca, and after losing his family's protection from harm by the Infidel Meccans he moved his operation to Medina.

When he got to Medina (after about 10 years in Mecca) he had only about 150 Muslim followers.
Then Muhammed started a new approach to us Infidels .
No more nice tolerant guy, he instructed his followers in Medina to subjugate ,convert or kill anyone who does not believe there is only one God (Allah) and Muhammed is his prophet.

Those Koran chapters written in Medina are violent and supersede the earlier softer Koran chapters.
if there appear to be a conflict in the Koran you go by the later chapter on that subject. - Tom

Can anyone show me any passage in the Koran or Hadiths which teach empathy (do unto others, treat the least of you as you would yourself)? I’d like to know.

Bombing isn’t what stopped the Nazis;it was soldiers with M1 rifles ,tanks, and machine guns killing so many that they finally gave up.And Americans were only a part -the Russians did most of the killing and dying fighting Nazism.

Mohammedanism is a world view. It is an entity and a system of ideas, based on irrational mysticism, with an identity and a nature.Since it has a nature, it possesses its own unique distinctive characteristics that can't be ignored. One of those characteristics is historical determinism,which captures the essence of the mohammedan approach to history.It teaches that one day mohammedanism will span the globe with all peoples and nations being mohammedan.And jihad is a divine institution of warfare to extend mohammedanism into the dar al-harb, the non-mohammedan territories which are described as the abode of struggle, or of disbelief, or to defend mohammedanism from danger.

Its the Whabist branch of Islam thats so Violent—It was an anti-Imperialist movement started in the days of the great empires. SUfi Moslems are not violent. Sad that Saudi Arabia has been promoting Whabist Radiacals.

Child's play compared to what has occurred under the banner of Islam since the 7th century. Go educate yourself and others about Islam.

Nothing in the history of mankind compares to Islam when you count the numbers of people beaten, maimed, enslaved, raped, and slaughtered.

Thanks for the links! We've need to educate Americans about this cult called Islam before it's too late. It may already be too late for western Europe:

With Open Gates: The forced collective suicide of European nations

It's not the people we should be against, it's a 7th century satanic mindset called Islam which is our enemy. We will rarely if ever be able to change the minds of its most evil adherents. For those, there is only one recourse when/if they choose to follow their prophet Mohammed's directives to the letter. Others will have their eyes opened and turn away from this evil, as many thousands and perhaps millions already have.

Long before Mohammed, Isaiah warned: Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness; Who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!

Dozens of passages in the Bible KORAN exhort Muslims to commit all sorts of violent actions against their enemies or those who sinned against them.

There are peaceful Muslims.

Sure as soon as they are disarmed and only as long as they remain disarmed.
