Omar, can you counter this;
Qualification:
Do not blame Muslims per-se for any terror, evils and violence. The are not the primary cause. Rather the root cause is the Islamic ideology as reflected in the Quran and Ahadith.
This information [The Mirror extracted from ISIS’s magazine] is critical because the reasons are primarily theological and religious differences justified from the Quran and not political [which is secondary]:
mirror.co.uk/news/world-news … ns-8533563
1. Because you are disbelievers
“We hate you, first and foremost, because you are disbelievers; you reject the oneness of Allah – whether you realize it or not – by making partners for Him in worship, you blaspheme against Him, claiming that He has a son, you fabricate lies against His prophets and messengers, and you indulge in all manner of devilish practices.”
2 . Because you are liberal
“We hate you because your secular, liberal societies permit the very things that Allah has prohibited while banning many of the things He has permitted, a matter that doesn’t concern you because you Christian disbelief and paganism 32 separate between religion and state, thereby granting supreme authority to your whims and desires via the legislators you vote into power.”
3. Because some of you are atheist
“In the case of the atheist fringe, we hate you and wage war against you because you disbelieve in the existence of your Lord and Creator.”
4. For your crimes against Islam
“We hate you for your crimes against Islam and wage war against you to punish you for your transgressions against our religion.”
5. For your crimes against Muslims
“We hate you for your crimes against the Muslims; your drones and fighter jets bomb, kill, and maim our people around the world, and your puppets in the usurped lands of the Muslims oppress, torture, and wage war against anyone who calls to the truth.”
6. For invading our lands
“We hate you for invading our lands and fight you to repel you and drive you out. As long as there is an inch of territory left for us to reclaim, jihad will continue to be a personal obligation on every single Muslim.”
The article concludes that while foreign policy is an issue, the main reason they are hell bent on destruction is because they don’t like the West very much.
It reads:
"What’s important to understand here is that although some might argue that your foreign policies are the extent of what drives our hatred, this particular reason for hating you is secondary, hence the reason we addressed it at the end of the above list.
“The fact is, even if you were to stop bombing us, imprisoning us, torturing us, vilifying us, and usurping our lands, we would continue to hate you because our primary reason for hating you will not cease to exist until you embrace Islam.”
As one who is VERY familiar with the Quran I can confirm the above is as per what is reflected in the verses of the Quran. The ethos of hate and contempt is fanned by the verses of the Quran.
Most Muslims will insist the followers of ISIS and other extremists interpreted the Quran wrongly. This is misconception. The followers [as Muslims] of ISIS are terrified of Allah [all powerful] and Hell, and there is no way they will twist the words of Allah for any personal benefit.
The majority of the points above are literally represented in the Quran while some may be dualistic, i.e. ambiguous and either way is true. Note the Duck-Rabbit dualistic truth example.
Another critical point is no one on Earth can judge which Muslim is interpreting the text correctly, especially the marginal ones till they meet up with Allah on Judgment Day.
Therefore as long as the Quran and Muslims exist there will always be evil and violence committed by SOME [not all] Muslims who are unfortunately born with an active evil tendency and zealously doing what is necessary as their divine duty to please Allah.
