Al-Baqara 256

According to all the theories of language elaborated by Muslim legal scholars, the Qur’anic proclamation that ‘There is no compulsion in religion. The right path has been distinguished from error’ is as absolute and universal a statement as one finds,[13] and so under no condition should an individual be forced to accept a religion or belief against his or her will according to the Quran.[14]

on the same WIKI page... a telling attribute of true islam in action and koranic! But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war); but if they repent, and establish regular prayers and practise regular charity, then open the way for them: for Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful. — Qur'an, 9:5 In other words, Islam is the religion of peace... and they will kill to prove it!
