Copied From Quora

1) Islam is the most misunderstood religion in the world today. Yes it is, because lots of “bad guy” do not want it to be understood correctly due to several reasons. Simply we can say that; Islam will restrict all bloodsuckers, killers, chaos generators, weapon sellers, bank interest makers. Today 1% of the world is richer than 99% of the world. Islam will not allow this.

2) There's a term as "Abrahamic religions". Most non-muslim people has an argument as "Islam is a copy of previous religions". So how can you say that "Christianity is not a copy of Judaism, it's completely authentic"? And Judaism can be a copy of a previous religion. But they are not copy of each other. Actually story is simple; Yes they're similar, because they all come from the same source; Allah (God). He says almost same things in all religions. For example He said, "do not kill people without a reason" to Judaists, but they corrupted their religion, even destroyed all original script of their book Torah (Tevrat) and always found a “reason” to kill people. According to Islam they even killed hundreds of prophets, and they always had "good reasons" to do that. So same source (God/Allah) sent same things again at a different time, with a different messenger and different named book but, He said exact same thing: "do not kill people without a reason" again. And same thing repeated many times. Humans corrupted these religions for their personal, political, financial benefits. Allah let the people to change His religions/books to "take photos of them as redhanded". Islam is also from same source; Allah. But this time there's a difference. Previous religions said that a new religion and prophet will come after them but, Islam says no new religion or prophet will be sent again to the end of the world. For this reason "to let this last book to changed by humans again" means leaving them unnotified, unwarned. So He says "no one will be able to change this book this time". Nevertheless, countless people still trying to corrupt this last religion again but, after 1400 years of first appearance of Islam, we still have only ONE original script of Quran. There are millions of Quran books in the world and they are exactly same in original language, even one letter is not different between them. Do you know how many different Bibles around? Or where is the original script of Torah? This is worth to consider.

3) There's a wrong behavior as evaluating Islam by looking at the muslims' life. Unfortunately most of them lives Islam very bad. Islam and Muslim are different terms. First is a perfect system but, I have to confess: latter is a generally bad member, especially for last century.

4) All religions inform their beleivers about the next prophet and religion. The last religion before Islam was Christianity. Over 2000 years passed but according to Christians the new prophet is not arrived yet. Isn’t this weird? Interestingly they experienced same situation by the Judaists. Judaists did not accpet Jesus (Isa) and Muhammad. History just repeats over and over again.

5) Islam does not have any "illegal" subgroups/forks but muslims do. Islam has four accepted major mezhebs (sects). They all accpet each other. So why do they exist? They're all about details. For example; we have a problem; if you bleed your finger, do you have to take a new Abdest (washing, mouth, nose, face, arms, feet etc. before praying)? This is a very specific situation and there's nothing about it in the Quran nor Prophet Muhammad did not say anything about it. So four major Islamic wises comes to scene. They collect all the evidences, compares them, elects them, thinks about other issues and makes a judgement. Different wises has different views about these specific issues. Some of them find their way "more fail-safe", but others find their ways "fail-safe enough and more comfortable". So according to Hanefi Mezheb, you have to take a new abdest after one drop of bleeding. According to Shafi Mezheb you must bleed more. Simply there is no major difference between them.

6) Some people say Islam is outdated. So, when human rights will be outdated? The right to live? Live in peace? Will they be outdated in future? Restrictions to killing people, using alcohol, drugs, cheating your wife/husband, pornography, slavery of women, saying lies, galumny, robbery cannot be outdated. So what about using computers, cars? Are muslims still riding camels? No I have a motor bike and I'm a web developer/graphics designer and I'm not an exception. Islam does not restricts internet, Islam restricts abusing/harming people or himself via internet.

7) Another issue is women. Are women less valuable than men in Islam? Short answer: absolutely no. Long answer: Women are not equal to men in all aspects. This is not comparing a mature apple and an immature apple. They can be compared in terms of taste. You can say mature is better. But this is comparing apple and orange. Both have good tastes but they are different. Women are not just sexual objects to promote a car or a chewing gum. They are not just a sexual slave for public use. They are private, precious. They are our mothers, sisters, daughters, friends of life. Everyone knows there is an industry called pornograpy. Actually pornography satisfies only eyes and ears of men. So watching beautiful and sexy women is a very valuable thing for men. Just watching. So they are different. Unfortunately women are slaves of our century because of their beauty/sexuality. A man has no value sexually but a woman has. A man cannot be raped by a woman but a woman can be. A man has an instict to watch porn but most women doesn't. Beleive or not men rule the world and they use women to make more money. Another question: who wants to be cheated, Man or woman? No one. Islam restricts all illegal (outside of a marriage) sexuality for all men and women, is it weird?

Islam is the only religion in the world that most blamed, most hated and most wanted it to be disappeared by the non-muslim people. Is this just a bad coincidence? Why not Buddhism, why not Judaism or its political fork Zionism? Rest of the world -especially the west- exploited, sucked and ate up all resources of muslim and african countries for more than a century. They assigned presidents, they manipulated economics, drawn the borders of muslim countries with rulers, made them fight each other for decades, sucked all their oil, terrorized these countries with "western founded fake terrorist groups" (like Al qaida and ISIS today) and they blamed muslims for all their dirty works. And finally everyone in the world knows this equation; Islam = Terrorism. The interesting question is that: "So, what is the thing that's so important and has to be hidden from the rest of the world?". This worths to consider too.

9) Allah just informs human beings. Restricts killing people under different names like "To take democracy, freedom, human rights, these are terrorists" etc. What if we think rest of the world are terrorists? That's not the right way. He just informs; "If you kill any single man without a reason, you are like killed all human beings" (Surah Al-ma'idah [5/32] ). He warns, gives time (a lifetime) collects evidences and puhishes real terrorists after judgement day.

10) After all, beleive or not, you're pratically free.

Copied From Quora

I have been studying Islam for several years now and not for one moment have I ever wished that I would follow any other religion. Also, forgive me for not sounding humble, I have been blessed with a pretty good understanding of the world, people and Islam.

One of the things that other religions in general miss out and the advanced world seems to have forgotten is that nothing in this world is created without a purpose. Your life is not a play-field. You are here for a purpose. Islam clearly identifies this purpose as worship of The One Who Created Us. People are biased against Islam saying it provokes war, instills terror etc. But that is not what Islam is all about. Thats not what the Quran or Prophet Muhammed's life was about at all. Islam establishes a way of life, urging you to do good in this world.

How many questions here on Quora have been about "Karma is a ..."? well that's a clear sign of what Islam talks about. It talks about being good in this life coz once this life is done, there is gonna be a day, a day where justice will be done for every single action that we have taken. People on Quora here are educated and understand the corporate lifestyle. Well you must have seen that everything that you do in the office is recorded to be used either against you or to reward you. The same is the case with life as well. and that is what Islam is about. In your corporate world you have your HR policies you need to abide by failing which you are taken to task in some way or the other. the same applies for the Life as well. The Quran is the book of guidance on how to behave in this world. On how to carry yourself. On how to glorify the one who created you and how to be grateful for your existence.

Prophet Muhammad(PBUH) is the person every muslim takes as his or her role model. He is the person who has shown the world what true piety is and what being true to the God is. There can be no one like him neither before nor after. All muslims know and firmly believe him to be the greatest man who ever lived and the person with the best character and manners. His existence gives us an example of how to live life on this world in the best possible way.

While I am writing this answer, there is a lot of debate going on in the news about Dr. Zakir Naik and what he does. and several questions were asked about him on Quora as well. And I remember one such question where the person asked for more details on him and a reply was something like "he is that person who has memorized the Quran and some fancy snippets from other religious books and tries to draw comparisons etc". Personally I don’t subscribe much to Dr. Zakir Naik but the amount of response that particular answer got made me think. Thats exactly whats rampant in Quora and other media platforms as well and reflects in the hypocrisy of the modern society. People take fancy snippets from the Quran, misinterpret them out of context and blow them out of proportions trying to defame Islam.

Islam is a religion which is pure. It gives you mental satisfaction during every walk of your life.

Every trouble you go through, Islam gives you strength to go on promising a reward once this life is over.

Every time you were the victim of injustice, of oppression (and i am not talking about large scenarios like Syria or something but even the smallest possible thing like bias your faculty shows towards his or her favourite students or even less) you can choose to remain patient knowing that your reward is with God.

Life is unfair to you, the world is filled with corruption and crimes. Islam gives you peace that there is a Greater Power watching everything and will soon give you justice.

and there are several more scenarios I can name

You have lived so many years in this world and are going to remain for just a finite number of years. Once that is gone, then what?. Don't you expect some justice to take place? It will. Islam gives you that hope. That sense of peace that whatever good that you do, you will be rewarded, be it removing a stone from the roads. And also simultaneously puts a fear in your heart that whatever wrong you do, be it something as trivial as insulting a person, you will have to answer for it.

However none of this makes any sense if there is no God right? well there is a God. you feel Him in everything. you see His trace in everyone. you hear Him in your heart and fear Him as well. It's His mercy that's reflected in us when we show kindness to each other. His beauty that we see when we see the nature. He exists. beyond doubt. Just look at everything of nature. look at the sky and the universe. do you see any imperfections in the sky? in the universe. how everything is going about so perfectly. We humans can't even design an engine that can work without imperfections.

And just One God who doesn't need any sort of supporting Gods to carry out the affairs of the heaven and earth. This is what Islam believes in. God is the one who is going to ensure justice. He is going to do it one day. One day everyone will answer for their deeds, good or bad, TO HIM.

Just think.... for one moment, leaving all your prejudice, your beliefs, your religious inclinations, leave everything... and just reflect on your life, the things that you have done... and that The Mightiest of All is going to make you stand in front of him and question you about it. No recommendations, no corruption, no bullying, nothing is going to work against Him. .... Just think of yourself in that position. Are you ready?

If not then why not? Millions die every day. It could easily be you tomorrow. It will be you one day.

So you asked my perception of Islam, and I have given you my view. Instead of commenting something stupid, put yourself in my shoes and have my view for a minute. Perhaps you might understand what I am talking about. and if you can't then well it's your call. But don't expect me to answer ridiculous questions about Islam and Allah and my beloved Prophet(PBUH) in the comments. I am one of those who thinks and writes. not writes and thinks.

My point here is that none of the above-mentioned attacks were done by Muslims. These weren't Muslims or neither affiliated with them or their ideas, in fact, they were Catholics. Common people who lived like you and me; but were responsible for such barbaric acts. So who is to blame here for such acts? The entire Christian religion or the people who committed these?

Furthermore,

Even if all terrorist attacks were carried out by Muslims, you still could not associate terrorism with Islam.

There have been 140,000 terror attacks committed worldwide since 1970. Even if Muslims carried out all of these attacks (which is an absurd assumption given the fact mentioned in my above points), those terrorists would represent less than 0.00009 per cent of all Muslims. To put things into perspective, this means that you are more likely to be struck by lightning in your lifetime than a Muslim is likely to commit a terrorist attack during that same timespan.

When a drunk driver causes a car accident, we never blame the car manufacturer for the violent actions of that driver. This is because we understand that we cannot blame an entire car company that produces millions of safe vehicles just because a reckless person who used it to cause harm hijacked one of their cars. So what right do we have to blame an entire religion of over 1.6 Billion peaceful people because of the actions of a relatively insignificant few?

I will not deny that terrorism is a real threat, it definitely is. However, it is extremely incorrect to associate the words “Muslim” and “terrorist” when literally all the facts implore you to do otherwise.

Folks, how more naïve could we possibly be?

There are over 2.2 billion Muslims currently living on this planet. If they all were Jihadi’s or terrorists you’d probably be dead by the time you finish reading this sentence.

Over 1 billion Muslims fast for a whole month to go through the pain of the poor and we call these people terrorists. Revaluate, please?

Islam is 1400 years old, terrorism started 50 years ago after the west started invading Middle Eastern countries. There's your root cause.

It is the Media. They perpetuate stereotypes about people. They want you to believe what they sell. Don’t buy it, folks. Don't buy it.

On February 14, 2018, a gunman opened fire at Marjory_Stoneman_Douglas_High_School in Parkland,_Florida, killing seventeen students and staff members and injuring seventeen others. Witnesses identified nineteen-year-old former student Nikolas Cruz as the assailant, and he was arrested in Coral_Springs,_Florida by the Broward_County_Sheriff's_Officeshortly after he escaped the scene


Florida School shooting

A gunman opened fire on a crowd of concertgoers at the Route 91 harvest music festival on the Las Vegas strip in Nevada. Perpetrator Stephen Paddock, 64, of Mesquite, Nevada, fired more than 1,100 rounds from his suite on the 32nd floor of the nearby Mandalay Bay hotel, killing 58 people and leaving 851 injured from gunfire and the resulting panic.

Last Vega's mass shooting

Let's talk about some other examples.

Right-wing extremists, often white supremacists , were responsible for 115 incidents within the same period. Events like Robert Dear’s killing of three people at a Colorado Planned Parenthood women's health clinic in December 2015 for offering abortion services.


Robert Dear, the culprit for killing three people at a health care centre

Dzhokhar Anzorovich Tsarnaev

Russian? No, Chechen. But he was the person behind the Boston Marathon Bombing. He was an alumnus of one of the elite universities in the world, University of Massachusetts Dartmouth. He was studying Marine Biology. Now, he was not a Muslim and a well-educated student at a prodigious university, but at the end, he was the conspirator of the attacks. He did it. Now, the question arises that why would a well-educated student who is not a Muslim will initiate such a terror attack?

Because a terror attack is not about being a Muslim or following Islam, it just means being vindicated to a particular organisation.

It is about seeking revenge; it's not about any religion — whatsoever.

Let me put some light on what I'm trying to propagate through the following examples:


Boston Marathon Bombing, United States of America

What do you think of Islam?

The primitive and stereotypical reasoning of people has deteriorated the true meaning of Islam. We mistake Islam with terrorism. We run for our lives when we see a Muslim. We run off in trepidation. We are scared of the repercussions that might follow. Stereotypes have taken over our mind.

Nothing of that sort is going to happen.

The word Islam itself, meaning "submission," is a derivative of a Syriac word for "making peace." It is a faith that calls for charity, humility, and service. And it resembles the other great monotheistic religions to a remarkable degree. Like Christians and Jews, Muslims believe they are descended from Abraham. They worship the same God and believe in the prophets. They hold that Jesus was a great prophet, although not the Son of God. In the Koran, there are more references to the Virgin Mary than in the New Testament.

A religion that carries "peace" in its own name cannot be coupled with terrorism.

The volatile state of the Middle East and the current ongoing conflict, which, I last checked, started, over 50 years ago has forged an atrocious image of Islam into our minds. Our minds are embedded with the image of a terrorist annihilating other people. Why? Have we ever asked this question to ourself?

Because this is this way we grew up. This is what we were taught. It is up to us to bring the change and trigger it for good. People hate Islam, because of the ongoing conflict and the atrocities Russia and the US have caused over the past 50 years. They link Islam with terrorism. Whose blemish is it?

Let's put in a perspective, shall we?

Indonesia has the biggest Muslim population on the planet. It represents over 12.5% of the complete Muslim majority of the planet.

When was the last time you heard about a terror attack in Indonesia?

Never, because you were probably too busy to scrutinise the situation in the Middle East than to actually look into the substantial facts and figures. Let me put some light on what I'm trying to propagate through an example.


The religious affiliation of people in Indonesia

We should learn to worship God in the best of our ability and do away with hate

The first image below is a verse from the Holy Quran which is the Muslim scripture. In the images, the Arabic word Allah is underlined in red so that it can be easily identified. Upon comparing the images, one should be able to clearly see that the word Allah appears in both the Qur'anic and Arabic Bible images. Indeed, the word Allah appears throughout Arabic translations of the Bible, since it is simply the Arabic name for Almighty God. For those who are still in doubt, these examples below will help quell the doubts of those who have been duped into believing that Muslims worship a different god either by the hostile media or by Christian missionary propaganda. We hope that this serves as enough documentation for those who still have doubts about this.

Carefully take a look at this:
.

You will definitely think you are in a mosque and you will be surprise when you begin seeing words like "ᴀʟʟᴀʜ" in the Bible.


This Holy Book ( Arabic Bible)is the scripture which is used by Arabic-speaking Christians (of which there are still about 15 to 20 million in the Middle East).

Our God is one but the problem we are facing is language barrier. Do you know that if you should read the Arabic Bible, you must say "Bismillah"?


It will amaze you if you should watch Christian sermon in Arabic and then begin to hear words like:

"Allahu Akbar"

"Bismillah"

"Alhamdulillahi"

It would seem, apparently, that racism is one of the most talked about social vice of our time. Earlier today, an Arabian lady released pictures of her wedding to to a black Sudanese man and the pictures have been making rounds of various Arabian groups and they have been reposting the pictures and laying curses upon the woman and her family for allowing her to be married by a black man.

A particular poster said "he would rather marry his daughter than have her married to a black man".

Another said "...it is the signs of end time and that the master (the Arab woman) is now getting married to the slave" which is funny because all human beings are equal and have equal human rights.









Reading the translation of these posts which were originally written in Arabic just makes me sad as this goes a long way to show how unfairly and second-class black people are treated all over the world.

The person in this last screenshot goes ahead to say "...don't make our genes dirty..."

Goes a long way to show the amount of racism in the world.
