Evidence from the  Noble  Quran and Sunnah  The Quran was revealed by God to the Prophet Muhammad over 1400 years   ago. Not a single letter has changed as one of the miracles of the Quran   is that it will be preserved for all time. It is the perfect message   for All humanity to follow and abide by. We recommend you learn   about the true teachings of Islam and to learn from a true Muslim   source. That way you will not be taught false information about Islam or   Muslims. We are here simply to represent the Truth, to help people   accept Islam as salvation and to build bridges to encourage   understanding between all people.The hatred some people might show towards Islam and the   ill-practices of some Muslims should not hinder a Person from seeking   the truth.   Islam strictly forbids killing of innocents. Nobody can ever be   justified in killing any innocent man, woman or child. It is indeed a   grave sin. Infact, all forms of oppression are outlawed and Muslims are   encouraged to help others no matter what their religion or background   is. Terrorism does happen, it happens in all societies where various   elements of ignorance, helplessness, sense of injustice and oppression   are present. It happens by individuals, groups, and even States some   perhaps closer to home then you might have though! Have an eye-opener. Extremists/Terrorists   do not follow True Islam, their motivations and inspirations are  driven  from elsewhere..So who are the terrorists? Learn more  about  what "Terrorism" REALLY is here. Islam, is free from imperfections, a message for all mankind and for   all time.   Islam is very simple and easy to follow. A Muslim is simply someone who   believes in Allah as the only God worthy of worship without having any   partners. And, to believe in all his messengers which include Musa   (Moses), Ibrahim (Abraham) Isa (Jesus) and the last and final messenger   sent to mankind Muhammad <img src="http://www.turntoislam.com/forum/images/smilies/saws.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />. May Allah's peace and  blessings be upon them  all. Learn More about Islam..Islam is not at fault, the Quran was revealed by God to all humanity to   follow. It shall stand the test of time and not change. Its message is   universal. Contrary to common ignorant beliefs, the Quran does   not sanction the use of violence, terrorism, or oppression of any sort   against any innocent men, women or children. Rather, it upholds the sanctity of life. It encourages human rights and   supports resolution to peace. There are Many non-Muslims in the West  who  after researching and looking at Islam, have totally shed their  past  prejudices about Islam and accepted Islam. They realised that what  they  had percieved about the religion previously was completely  untrue. They  found that the Quran upholds women's rights, and is  against all forms of  racism and oppression. These are people who have had family members die on 9/11,   <a href="http://www.turntoislam.com/forum/showthread.php?t=21" target="_blank">journalists</a>, academics, American Pioneers of Human   Rights, T<a href="http://www.turntoislam.com/forum/showthread.php?t=13" target="_blank">exans</a>, <a href="http://www.turntoislam.com/forum/showthread.php?t=18" target="_blank">British people</a>, Australians, even Christian   Preachers. They all found Islam appealing and based their lives upon it.   You can Watch many of the video testimonies from them all here at   TurnToIslam website, We really recommend you watch for yourself and see   how these people have found true Islam.Allah says in the Quran: Certainly, We have brought to them a Book  (the Qur'ân) which We have  explained in detail with knowledge, - a  guidance and a mercy to a  people who believe. (7:152)The Quran tells us not just how to lead our lives, but the best way to   lead our lives. It provides us with guidance, inspiration, hope and the   attainment of justice. - No place in the Quran calls for the forced conversion of others,   oppression of women or any of the other false claims people make   regarding Islam - Unfortunately, in todays climate of War, State Terror   and Media bias, the true teachings of Islam seldom get mentioned. This page contains sources and evidence from the Quran and Sunnah,   showing the justice and perfection of Islam. These are only a select few   verses and hadith, its truly recommended that you read the Noble Quran   yourself to learn about Islam and to get a good teacher, someone who  is a  Muslim with sound understanding of the Quran and Sunnah. You can  ask  any questions and get help on this website! Jihad in Islam  Jihad does not mean "holy war". (Thats something the Christians did in   the Middle Ages). The Word Jihad actually stems from Juhd, to   strive/struggle. This is encouraged and can be for anything to please   God. It is a jihad to get  up in the morning to go to pray and to go to   work, it is a jihad to go school in the rain. etc. Personal Jihad: The most excellent jihad is that of the soul. This   jihad, called the Jihadun-Nafs, is the intimate struggle to purify the   soul of satanic influence--both subtle and overt. It is the struggle to   cleanse one's spirit of sin. This is the most important level of jihad.  Verbal Jihad: On another occasion, the Prophet said, "The most excellent   jihad is the speaking of truth in the face of a tyrant." He encouraged   raising one's voice in the name of Allah on behalf of justice. Physical Jihad: This is combat waged in defense of Muslims against   oppression and transgression by the enemies of Allah, Islam and Muslims.   We are commanded by Allah to lead peaceful lives and not transgress   against anyone, but also to defend ourselves against oppression by   "fighting against those who fight against us." This "jihad with the   hand" is the aspect of jihad that has been so profoundly misunderstood   in today's world. In the Quran, Jihad is not used in a sense to mean fighting. The Word   Qitaal is used when mentioning warfare. The Quran makes it clear: "Fight in the cause of Allah those who fight you, but do not do   aggression, for Allah loves not the aggressors. Fight in the way of   Allah against those who fight against you, but begin not hostilities.   Lo! Allah loveth not aggressors. And slay them wherever ye find them,   and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out, for   persecution is worse than slaughter. And fight not with them at the   Inviolable Place of Worship until they first attack you there, but if   they attack you (there) then slay them. Such is the reward of   disbelievers. But if they desist, then lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.   And fight them until persecution is no more, and religion is for  Allah.  But if they desist, then let there be no hostility except  against  wrongdoers." (Al-Baqarah 190-194) Jihad can be defensive. Such as protecting our homes, people, land and   way of life. It can be Liberating, helping free others from tyranny and   oppression and it can be preemptive which is launched only when Muslims   know for sure that there is treason against their peaceful treaties  with  the enemy, when the enemy has a serious plan to attack them. <ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">No  Such thing as Forced Conversions</li> </ul>Muslims are encouraged to invite people  to learn about Islam and  possibly to accept Islam as the one and only  way to live their lives. It  is the greatest gift a person could ever  give to another. To have an  understanding of why they were created, and  to be able to have ultimate  success in this life and an eternity of  bliss in the next. For the  ultimate reward for Muslim is not tangible  one, it is spiritual  satisfaction, i.e. knowing the purpose of our  lives, having complete  ease and peace. Allah (most  glorified and most high) says in the Quran:   Invite  (mankind, O Muhammad SAW) to the Way  of your Lord (i.e. Islâm) with  wisdom (i.e. with the Divine Inspiration  and the Qur'ân) and fair  preaching, and argue with them in a way that is  better. Truly, your  Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path,  and He is the Best  Aware of those who are guided. [16:125] and Allah says:  There is no compulsion in  religion. Verily,  the Right Path has become distinct from the wrong  path. Whoever  disbelieves in Tâghût (false worship or idols)and  believes  in Allâh, then he has grasped the most trustworthy handhold  that will  never break. And Allâh is All-Hearer, All-Knower [2:256] It is forbidden to  force anyone to become Muslim. And under ISlamic law,  forced conversion  is not seen as carrying any legal status. i.e. it is  invalid. Infact,  any forced action is seen as invalid. For every action  in Islam is  judged by the Intention and it is only Allah who knows what  lies in our  hearts.   This forbidden use of force is also seen in  marriage. Men and Women can  not be forced to marry each other. Women  have the complete right to  choose their spouses. Likewise, if a man and  a woman are forced to marry  each other, under Islamic law the marriage  is seen as invalid.  I would like to remind the reader  that the actions of one person or a  group can not be used to pass  sweeping judgements against Islam. Islam  is free from all of these  accusations and slurs.   <ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Killing   innocent Men, Women and Children is Forbidden </li> </ul>The use of Force is allowed in Islam.  However, Islam lays down  clear guidelines as to how warfare is carried  out. It is not for anyone  to take the law into their own hands. Allah says in the Quran:  {Because of that We  ordained for the Children  of Israel that if anyone killed a person not  in retaliation of murder,  or (and) to spread mischief in the land - it  would be as if he killed  all mankind, and if anyone saved a life, it  would be as if he saved the  life of all mankind. And indeed, there came  to them Our Messengers with  clear proofs, evidences, and signs, even  then after that many of them  continued to exceed the limits (e.g. by  doing oppression unjustly and  exceeding beyond the limits set by Allâh  by committing the major sins)  in the land!.}    [ 5 : 32]It is narrated by Ibn 'Umar  that a woman was  found killed in one of these battles; so the Messenger  of Allah (may  peace be upon him) forbade the killing of women and  children.   (Sahih Al Bukhari  Chapter : Prohibition of killing women  and  children in war.) Narated By Rabah ibn Rabi' :  When we were with  the Apostle of Allah (pbuh) on an expedition, he saw  some people  collected together over something and sent a man and said:  See, what are  these people collected around? He then came and said:  They are round a  woman who has been killed. He said: This is not one  with whom fighting  should have taken place. Khalid ibn al-Walid was in  charge of the van;  so he sent a man and said: Tell Khalid not to kill a  woman or a hired  servant. (Sunan  Abu Dawood) Ibn `Umar (May Allah bepleased with them)  reported: Messenger of Allah  (PBUH) said,  "A believer  continues to guard his Faith (and thus hopes for Allah's  Mercy) so long  as he does not shed blood unjustly". [Al-Bukhari].    <ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Beware of Enemies of Islam Hiding the Truth</li> </ul>There happen to be people who  unfortunately relish in promoting  ignorance and hatred towards Muslims.  They play on the ignorance of  others, by giving false information. For  this reason it is always  important to find out about Islam from true  Islamic sources, such as  this website. These people often  misquote the Quran. An example is when they quote the  following verse  out of context:   And kill them wherever you find them,  and  turn them out from where they have turned you out. And Al-Fitnah     [2:191] However, they do not  quote the verse in its entirety and without  establishing the facts  surrounding these verses.  And fight in the  Way of Allâh those who fight  you, but transgress not the limits.  Truly, Allâh likes not the  transgressors.   And  kill them wherever you find them, and turn  them out from where they  have turned you out. And Al-Fitnah [Trials,  Persecution] is worse  than killing. And fight not with them at  Al-Masjid-al-Harâm (the  sanctuary at Makkah),[unless they (first)  fight you there.    But if they attack you, then kill them.  Such is the  recompense of the disbelievers  .[2:190-191] Allah and his Prophet   <img src="http://www.turntoislam.com/forum/images/smilies/saws.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />  forbid peopel from going to  extremes. The Messenger of  Allaah (SAW) said,    "I warn you  of  extremism in the Religion for indeed those that came before you were   destroyed due to their extremism in the religion." Reported  by an-Nasaa'ee (5/268), ibn Maajah (no.  3029), Ahmad (1/215, 347) with a  saheeh sanad </blockquote>
