JIHAD:

Qur’an 2:216 “Jihad (holy fighting in Allah’s Cause) is ordained for you (Muslims), though you dislike it. But it is possible that you dislike a thing which is good for you, and like a thing which is bad for you. But Allah knows, and you know not.” [Another translation reads:] “Warfare is ordained for you.”
Qur’an 4:95 “Not equal are those believers who sit at home and receive no injurious hurt, and those who strive hard, fighting Jihad in Allah’s Cause with their wealth and lives. Allah has granted a rank higher to those who strive hard, fighting Jihad with their wealth and bodies to those who sit (at home). Unto each has Allah promised good, but He prefers Jihadists who strive hard and fight above those who sit home. He has distinguished his fighters with a huge reward.”

Muslim:C28B20N4631 “I heard Muhammad say: ‘I would not stay behind when a raid for Jihad was being mobilized unless it was going to be too hard on the believers. I love that I should be killed in Allah’s Cause; then I should be brought back to life and be killed again.’”
Qur’an 9:111 “Allah has purchased the believers, their lives and their goods. For them (in return) is the Garden (of Paradise). They fight in Allah’s Cause, and they slay and are slain; they kill and are killed.”

Perpetual death what a concept in futility

Firstly. I will give the URL to the Online Koran translation I have used for some time. It is:

http://www.hti.umich.edu/k/koran/

I tend to check things out I see posted based on this translation. Looks pretty much identical.

Hope other that do not have access to an English translation take advantage of the above site. It is very easy to browse, go to a particular sarah, query on verses etc..

Yea, this stuff is very troubling. At least the western world is starting to get an idea as how dangerous Islam is.
Some of the statements the authored expressed has been on my mind for a long time. People look strange at me when I make statements that the Islamic radicals are actually trying to obey their cult's writtings. And those that practice peace are not obeying allah and his prophet.
The main problem as I see it, is simple. The Islamic world must come to the conclusion their religion is actually a cult created by a quite screwed up group of individuals. Of course, this is impossible. The problem will not go away.
