seyicodes:
Brother Let's take one question at a time.

INJESUSNAME:
Too many problems...

INJESUSNAME:
Ok

seyicodes:
First Question ?

INJESUSNAME:
I have raised too many already, pick them one by one.

seyicodes:
I understand your concerns. But we should judge Islam by the Qur’an and authentic teachings of the Prophet ﷺ, not by the actions of some Muslims. The Qur’an forbids forced conversion, commands justice toward non-Muslims, and the Prophet ﷺ showed mercy even to his enemies. If some Muslims behave wrongly, that is their failure — not Islam’s teaching.

1. “Islam forces people to convert” ?

NO

This is directly contradicted by the Qur’an:
“There is no compulsion in religion.” (Qur’an 2:256)
When the Prophet ﷺ established the Muslim community in Medina, Jews and others lived there without being forced to accept Islam. The Constitution of Medina guaranteed religious freedom.
The Prophet ﷺ never forced tribes to convert. Even when Mecca was conquered, he did not force conversion. Many accepted Islam later willingly.
Forcing conversion is against the Qur’an and against the Sunnah.

2. “Islam claims superiority and spreads backwardness”

NO

Islam claims that its message is the final revelation — yes. But that does not mean Muslims must oppress others.
The Prophet ﷺ said:
“The best of you are the best in character.”
Islam historically encouraged:
Literacy (first revelation: “Read”)
Science (early Muslim civilization preserved and advanced knowledge)
Justice even toward enemies
The golden age of Islam — under the Abbasid Caliphate — produced advancements in medicine, mathematics, and astronomy.
If some Muslim societies today struggle, that is due to politics, corruption, colonial history, and governance — not because Islam teaches backwardness.


3. “Islam hates other religions”

NO

The Qur’an commands justice:
“Allah does not forbid you from being kind and just to those who do not fight you because of religion.” (Qur’an 60:
The Prophet ﷺ stood up in respect when a Jewish funeral passed by him. When told it was a Jew, he replied:
“Was he not a human soul?”
That is not hatred.


4. “Violence by many adherents”

NO

Islam does not equal the behavior of every Muslim.
The Prophet ﷺ strictly forbade:
Killing women
Killing children
Killing monks
Destroying crops
Destroying places of worship
If Muslims commit violence outside Islamic law, they are disobeying Islam — not representing it.
5. “How can someone 600 years later know better?”
Islam teaches that the Prophet ﷺ did not invent the message — he received revelation from Allah.
The Qur’an repeatedly says the Prophet ﷺ was unlettered and did not study previous scriptures.
Muslims believe:
Muhammad ﷺ received revelation.
Isa (Jesus) was a prophet.
Musa (Moses) was a prophet.
Islam does not claim the Prophet ﷺ “figured it out.” It claims divine revelation.
So the issue becomes: do you believe in revelation or not?


6. “Killing blasphemers, apostates, non-believers”

NO

This issue is complex in Islamic law and cannot be reduced to slogans.
Important points:
The Prophet ﷺ did not execute people merely for disbelief.
Many non-Muslims lived under Muslim rule peacefully.
Apostasy in classical law was tied to political treason during wartime — not private belief.
Islamic rulings were applied within a state system with strict judicial process — not mob violence.
Modern chaos done in the name of religion is not the same as classical Islamic jurisprudence.

INJESUSNAME:
Thank you bro. I am already used to all these twisting Quran to make it look like a harmless book. I have been listening to muslim apologists for many years now. Internet has changed everything, we can now access Islamic materials freely. The real muslims are the people that follow the footsteps of the prophet. Since we know many of what he did, we are not surprised at the action of his real followers. My comment will be deleted if I start to write what I know about the prophet.

seyicodes:
My brother please feel free to write about what the Prophet Muhammad ( Peace Be Upon Him ) did that is wrong 🙂 he is the best of all creatures.
