The Sword of Islam
American Christian, Did you know:
Islam is a religion that was founded and established by violence and still believes in violence as a principal and as a way of life. The relationships between Islamic countries themselves and the relationships between them and all other nations have always been based on terror and still is!
I would not have you to be ignorant brethren, if Islam is a religion of "Peace," why is it the number one instrument of persecution of Christians in other Countries? And if it's just isolated sects of radicals, why isn't the passive Muslims speaking on behalf of Christians who are martyred by the Islamic religion? The point I want to bring out is, that in America we're being deceived by Muslim leaders who may be deceived themselves and many others into thinking that Islam is a religion of peace! The word where they get "Islam" from may in one way be interpreted "peace," but out of the same root word comes the interpretations "to be saved or to escape from danger", "the stinging of a snake", "the tanning of the leather" AND "submission!" That why it isn't surprising that Muhammad, the founder and authority in Islam, unveils the true face and pure tense of Islam! Muhammad used to send letters to the kings and leaders of the surrounding countries and tribes, inviting them to surrender to his authority and to believe in him as the messenger of Allah. He always ended his letters with the following two words: "Aslem, Taslam!" which means "surrender and you will be safe", or in other words, "surrender or face death."
Just historically take a look at the Nations in the Middle East, Africa, Indonesia, Sudan, etc. If America wasn't strong Militarily, and didn't have the laws and freedom that it has, Islam would do exactly what they have done in all the other countries around the World, seize it by the Sword of Islam! And whether you know it or not, or want to hear it or not, the goal of Islam to have their flag flying over the White House by 2010!
Let's take a look at the "Koran," and other Muslim holy books:
The Qur'an states clearly that those who go back from Islam are to be punished by death: "But if they turn renegades seize them and slay them wherever ye find them and (in any case) take no friends or helpers from their ranks. Al-Nisaa 4:89."
Muhammad also said, as narrated by Al-Bukhari, "If somebody - a Muslim - discards his religion, kill him."
The Qur'an not only ordered the killing of those who embraced Islam and afterwards decided to renegade, but also commanded the followers to fight all nations until they either believe in it, pay the Jizya or face death:
"Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the last day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and his apostle nor acknowledge the religion of truth of the people of the Book (the Jews and the Christians) until they pay the Jizya with willing submission and feel themselves subdued. Surat At-Tauba 9:29"
And in the same Sura, verse 5, the Qur'an also states: "Fight and slay the pagans wherever ye find them and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem ..."
[5.33] The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His apostle and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides or they should be imprisoned; this shall be as a disgrace for them in this world, and in the hereafter they shall have a grievous chastisement,
Islam a religion of peace? ...
[2:190-192] And fight in the cause of Allah with those who fight with you, and do not exceed the limits, surely Allah does not love those who exceed the limits. And kill them wherever you find them, and drive them out from where they drove you out, and persecution is severer than slaughter, and do not fight with them at the Sacred Mosque (in Makkah) until they fight with you in it, but if they do fight you, then slay them; such is the reward of the unbelievers. But if they desist, then surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. And fight with them until there is no persecution, and religion should be only for Allah, but if they desist, then there should be no hostility except against the oppressors.
From the study of the Sunnah called Sahih Bukhari, we find that,
[4:52:65] Narrated Abu Musa: A man came to the Prophet and asked, "A man fights for war booty; another fights for fame and a third fights for showing off; which of them fights in Allah's Cause?" The Prophet said, "He who fights that Allah's Word (i.e. Islam) should be superior, fights in Allah's Cause."
[2:179] And there is life for you in (the law of) retaliation, O people of understanding, that you may guard yourselves.
[3:85] And whoever desires a religion other than Islam, it shall not be accepted from him, and in the hereafter he shall be one of the losers.
