What's to misunderstand?
I would submit that they should be more concerned with stopping the killers in their midst, THEN we can adress predjudice against Islam..
Killing people for no other reason than they don't agree with your religion is very hard for American's to swallow also!
Unfortunately for CAIR, Islam is very well understood. That's what they don't like.
If Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson, etc. were calling for the mass-murder of non-Christians and every weekend there was a new David Koresh story, the author might have a point.
Yeah... I don't understand how they can cut an innocent human being's head off for the fun of it. They need to clarify this most sacred part of Islam so the we understand it better.
Ever since 9-11 we have kept our eyes on the actions of Muslims. I think we all KNOW what Islam stands for and what Muslims want to do to Americans. They would like us dead or converted to Islam, so they can have America.
HMMM ... Let me see
1. Your "messiah" was a pedophile.
2. Beheadings and bombings are approved.
3. Women are slaves..
4. Jews and Christians are infidels.
What's to misunderstand?
And this is the same council that tells Muslims to lie when they take the oath of citizenship. This council wants Muslims to take over our country.
Actually, I agree, Islam is the most misunderstood religions in America. A large number of people believe it is a religion of peace, and that is a gross misunderstanding of Islam.
If there's anything Nihad Awad and I can agree on, it's that Islam is misunderstood.
In public schools and colleges, it is taught that Islam is a "religion of peace." The media sees that Islam is a "religion of peace" and that only a small amount of Muslims are terrorists. In fact, most people in Western countries believe Islam is a "religion of peace." Even Bush once said that Islam is a "religion of peace."
However, it is interesting how these never get talked about:
Bukhari:V4B52N50 “The Prophet said, ‘A single endeavor of fighting in Allah’s Cause is better than the world and whatever is in it.’”
Koran 9:88 “The Messenger and those who believe with him, strive hard and fight with their wealth and lives in Allah’s Cause.”
Koran 9:5 “Fight and kill the disbelievers wherever you find them, take them captive, harass them, lie in wait and ambush them using every stratagem of war.”
Koran 9:112 “The Believers fight in Allah’s Cause, they slay and are slain, kill and are killed.”
Koran 9:29 “Fight those who do not believe until they all surrender, paying the protective tax in submission.”
Ishaq:325 “Muslims, fight in Allah’s Cause. Stand firm and you will prosper. Help the Prophet, obey him, give him your allegiance, and your religion will be victorious.”
Koran 8:39 “Fight them until all opposition ends and all submit to Allah.”
Koran 8:39 “So fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief [non-Muslims]) and all submit to the religion of Allah alone (in the whole world).”
Ishaq:324 “He said, ‘Fight them so that there is no more rebellion, and religion, all of it, is for Allah only. Allah must have no rivals.’”
Koran 9:14 “Fight them and Allah will punish them by your hands, lay them low, and cover them with shame. He will help you over them.”
Ishaq:300 “I am fighting in Allah’s service. This is piety and a good deed. In Allah’s war I do not fear as others should. For this fighting is righteous, true, and good.”
Ishaq:587 “Our onslaught will not be a weak faltering affair. We shall fight as long as we live. We will fight until you turn to Islam, humbly seeking refuge. We will fight not caring whom we meet. We will fight whether we destroy ancient holdings or newly gotten gains. We have mutilated every opponent. We have driven them violently before us at the command of Allah and Islam. We will fight until our religion is established. And we will plunder them, for they must suffer disgrace.”
Koran 8:65 “O Prophet, urge the faithful to fight. If there are twenty among you with determination they will vanquish two hundred; if there are a hundred then they will slaughter a thousand unbelievers, for the infidels are a people devoid of understanding.”
Ishaq:326 “Prophet exhort the believers to fight. If there are twenty good fighters they will defeat two hundred for they are a senseless people. They do not fight with good intentions nor for truth.”
Bukhari:V4B52N63 “A man whose face was covered with an iron mask came to the Prophet and said, ‘Allah’s Apostle! Shall I fight or embrace Islam first?’ The Prophet said, ‘Embrace Islam first and then fight.’ So he embraced Islam, and was martyred. Allah’s Apostle said, ‘A Little work, but a great reward.’”
Bukhari:V4B53N386 “Our Prophet, the Messenger of our Lord, ordered us to fight you till you worship Allah alone or pay us the Jizyah tribute tax in submission. Our Prophet has informed us that our Lord says: ‘Whoever amongst us is killed as a martyr shall go to Paradise to lead such a luxurious life as he has never seen, and whoever survives shall become your master.’”
Muslim:C34B20N4668 “The Messenger said: ‘Anybody who equips a warrior going to fight in the Way of Allah is like one who actually fights. And anybody who looks after his family in his absence is also like one who actually fights.”
Koran 9:38 “Believers, what is the matter with you, that when you are asked to go forth and fight in Allah’s Cause you cling to the earth? Do you prefer the life of this world to the Hereafter? Unless you go forth, He will afflict and punish you with a painful doom, and put others in your place.”
Koran 9:123 “Fight the unbelievers around you, and let them find harshness in you.”
Koran 8:72 “Those who accepted Islam and left their homes to fight in Allah’s Cause with their possessions and persons, and those who gave (them) asylum, aid, and shelter, those who harbored them—these are allies of one another. You are not responsible for protecting those who embraced Islam but did not leave their homes [to fight] until they do so.” [Another translation reads:] “You are only called to protect Muslims who fight.”
Indeed, the American public needs to learn more about Islam.
I think I've got a pretty good handle on it.
If they are not Islam, kill them. What's so hard about understanding that?
DO ISLAMIC INDIVIDUALS UNDERSTAND FREEDOM?
CAIR would like all of us non-Muslims to just SUBMIT to Islam, and all will be well.
Islam teaches killing and murder. Islam teaches world take-over and rule.
World rule is why people left Europe and why wars were fought. CAIR thinks we don't read history books. We know about tyrants and Islam is one big Tyrant.
Half or your responses are going to be "I learned all I need to know about Islam on 9/11"
