No, your reasoning is faulty because Islam is based on the Koran which is in itself irrational. It has so many contradictions that it stands for nothing and everything, whatever you want it stand for. You can't justify an irrational ideology that is based on irrational, contradictory rules of morality. You are using circular logic.

I will gladly stipulate that islamowackos are probably not well founded in the Koran. My logic is not circular. I just see that a person who accepts a culture of death and cheapness of human life as their basis for action, logically can blow themselves and 20 innocent other people to smithereens. It is a logical process based on their standards. It is repulsive to you and me, but we do not accept their basis for action. We love life and value all living things, so it would be illogical for you to blow yourself up. (If you want to get technical, we are speaking of moral codes - and in spite of many prostestations there is more than one)

There is no circular reasoning here. You are quite reasonable in saying they are illogical, based on your standards. You can even say that their standards are wrong and you are welcome to try to convince them. But you can't say that they are illogical based on their standards and their standards are what they use to make decisions.
