This is an incredibly detailed FAQ source on Islam, the religion of peace <\sarcasm>. For example, here is their take on killing non-Muslims:
Question:
I've read that in Islam it is a greater sin to kill a Muslim than a non-Muslim. However, on death a Muslim will be in Paradise whereas the non-Muslim will be in Hell.To kill a non-Muslim is to deny them forever the chance of becoming a Muslim, and condemns them to Hell. Is this not then a greater sin?
Praise be to Allaah.
Killing a non-Muslim when he is a muaahid (one of those who have a peace treaty with the Muslims) is a sin, one of the major sins. Al-Bukhaari narrated that Abd-Allaah ibn Amr ibn al-Aas (may Allaah be pleased with them both) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: Whoever kills a muaahid will not smell the fragrance of Paradise, even though its fragrance may detected from a distance of forty days. But with regard to non-Muslims who are at war with the Muslims and do not have a peace treaty with the Muslims or are not living under Muslim rule, then Muslims are commanded to kill them, because Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
Fight those of the disbelievers who are close to you, and let them find harshness in you [al-Tawbah 9:123]
But this should be in the case of jihaad under the leadership of one of the leaders of the Muslims, or his deputy
Mohammed was a goober, as well as a goathumper. Ever since 9-11, I've been using the Koran for toilet paper. Keeps me regular. Makes taking a dump into a rewarding and even artistically satifying experience.
LOL...
