Hi Guys/Gals,
I am a muslim member and hence a follower of Islam on here. Although my passion/hobby is cars ( in particular the Starbo's lol ) I obviously follow the teachings of my religion. Getting to the reason why Iv started this topic is that in the modern world, Islam is being continiously condemned / criticised, but for all the wrong reasons. Ever since imo the 9/11 attacks and the so called and yes I believe so called muslim "Al Qaeda" group are reponsible for, Islam has come under such criticism ever after (although Islams teachings have been the same since it started and I say so called muslim "Al Qaeda" group because I like many believe "Al Qaeda are just an imaginary group of "bad muslims") ????
Like every religion, society, or culture there are bad people and due to these the whole crowd in perspective is percieved the same as we all know. Therefore, I being a follower of Islam am hurt that due to a minority of individuals / groups who call themselves "Muslims" too, do the dirty work (be it preaching hate, killing, suicide bombing or other stuff nowadays), & explain it by saying its their religion (when its the totally opposite of what Islam & our holy book "The Quran" teaches!!!
Us Muslims as you know are in the holy month of Ramadhan at this present moment in time, which is now coming to an end. Tonight is a special night for us as this was the date the holy "Quran" was revealed. Throughout the Quran it is reiterated continously about forgiving, having patience, giving charity, being honest and in general creating peace / harmony etc hence my decision to do this write up.
Due to the nature of cultural diversity on this forum I thought it was a good idea just to share this with you guys to help create further peace in between us all and just again bring to your attention that please do not be misled by newspapers, TV news, or other sources that imply Muslims are "bad" which in turn implies that Islam as a religion teaches Muslims to kill and preach hate etc. Thats is b***ocks! (Xcuse my French guys :haha. So lets please not let these bad people OR the people (like provocative journalists) create uncertainty or hate amongst us good people and enjoy life
Also Id also like you to take the time to just quickly read the following 3 write ups on the net, which I found just now via a quick search on google, on the topic of Terrorism and what Islam / Quran teaches its followers about this.
EDIT: 3 Write-ups on the same site. All 3 of these write-ups explain properly what Islam ACTUALLY teaches about probably the 2 most twisted topics in the modern world . . Terrorism and Jihad! Just the way these 2 topics are twisted & emphasised nowadays in relation to Islam is imo a major factor causing so much aggression / fear towards Islam. Please do read these in the this order :
First one to read is ......
http://islam.about.com/od/terrorism/f/terrorism.htm
An the second bit .........
http://islam.about.com/od/terrorism/f/terrorism_verse.htm
And finally, Thirdly, this is the ACTUAL meaning of Jihad as explained in the Quran ........
http://islam.about.com/od/jihad/f/jihad.htm
This further I think explains clearly how teachings of the Quran are twisted and turned just to make the newspaper headline look good but without the thought that what affect all this is having on the world itself !
Thats it guys, its just my peace offering and thought thats led me to do this write-up as thats what Islam teaches and I hope people understand / appreciate my efforts. I have no personal benefit in this as you should be able to see and I am just doing this because this is just a small part of what Islam ACTUALLY teaches us. Thank you.
Back to tuning the 4E-FTE for us all now
Many Thanks
