Re: [mukto-mona] Re: Talibanisation reaches Dhaka Airport

Rosaline Costa:
 
[But Islam says to respect other religions. Islam does not say anywhere in the Quran to kill people with bombs if they do not accept "the rule of Allah" but Muhammad repeatedly said to show respect toward people of other religions.
 
Comment: I do not participate in the deliberations on this site due to a personal reason, but the above comment has forced me to break my silence. I demand that Rosaline must produce some evidence from the Quran to prove herself correct.
 
It is true that Allah has not asked Muslims to kill others with bomnbs, but He has surely asked them to kill Mushriks with sword. Don't you  believe me?
 
Read these verses from the Quran:
 
1. 9:28:  [O ye who believe! Truly the Pagans are unclean; so let them not, after this year of theirs, approach the Sacred Mosque. And if ye fear poverty, soon will Allah enrich you, if He wills, out of His bounty, for Allah is All-knowing, All-wise..]
 
Comment: Allah's creation is unclean?
 
2. 9:5: [But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war); but if they repent, and establish regular prayers and practise regular charity, then open the way for them: for Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.]
 
Comment: The Quran does not say that this verse is no more operative in our time!
 
47:4: [So when you meet in battle those who disbelieve, then smite the necks until when you have overcome them, then make (them) prisoners, and afterwards either set them free as a favor or let them ransom (themselves) until the war terminates. That (shall be so); and if Allah had pleased He would certainly have exacted what is due from them, but that He may try some of you by means of others; and (as for) those who are slain in the way of Allah, He will by no means allow their deeds to perish.]
 
Conclusion: Rosaline is an ignorant person. She is saying things about which she knows nothing, and that is her problem as well as ours. It is persons like her who have been giving, without considering its consequences, wrong impression about Islam to the world. They must be stopped, if we wish to see knowledge traveling from one end of the earth to the another. Failure to do so will be very harmful for mankind.
