Wooo lot of mis information.
Some Muslim rulers in India were absolutely horrible, to the point where they even killed Muslims who didn't share their EXACT view. I've read about Muslims in India and some extremely sad things were done by rulers CLAIMING to be Muslims. Others were MUCH more tolerant. I don't see how that is the religion itself: rather it is called a "mixed bag of rulers outside the bounds of religion. IF it was the religion you would see that the rulers all would be one side or another, and I said you get a mixed bag.
Also your "examples" are a sad case....Thailand? IT is the Buddhist government ACTIVELY oppressing the Muslims. The government back in the 1800s annexed the land these guys lived on, and since then they have been systematically discriminated against by the government. Anyone with the right mind would be actively resisting. Chechnya is an extremely complex issue on its own, and to boil it down to "Muslims attacking teh infidels" is a simplistic view of the situation. Almost EVERY instance where "Muslims" or a group of people fights back is because an outside force is fvcking with their own business.
And LumbergTech put it right:
eriously.what in the world is this? this reminds me of a hitler propoganda thread..
oh no they will out-reproduce us..
that is the most paranoid and delusional concern i have ever seen..
Have fun dreaming that Muslims want to take over the world. You sound very similar to people down here who think the USA's "whiteness" is threatened by "Mexicans popping out six kids per family".
Most Muslims in Islam controlled India were genocidal brutes. Their genocidal actions were motivated by the Koran, their desire to be a ghzi (slayer of kafirs) If they slayed muslims too for not been islamic enough, then the blame can be placed solely at the altar of Islam. One ruler, Akbar who was least intolerant of the lot was known to slaugther atleast 30000 Hindu Rajputs in one stroke. Bahmanid Sultans had an agenda of slaughtering a hundred thousand hindus (their own subjects) every year to pay homage to Islam's concept of Jihad. The record of these genocides comes from the muslims themselves, paying proud homage to the jihad of the muslim kings. Those who left the hindu live did so by the imposition of Jagizya (infidel tax)
And stop hiding behind the standard excuse saying "these people were not muslims or claiming to be muslims" This excuse of yours is old as Islam itself. Accept them and move on, do not provide excuses. It was Islam which was the primary movtiation for their evil deeds. And yes, it was a clear case of black and white then. Unable to bear these atrocities, Hindus rebelled and gave rise to Kings like Shivaji who always treated their muslim subjects and mosques with benevolence.
And it is funny how you claim the incidents in places like Thailand as a case of muslim oppression. It is funnier considering other communities learn to live in peace while only muslims percive oppression and resume Jihad, thanks to the cover provided by people like the leftists and liberals in this forum.
As for your third point, Jihad is a primary duty within Islam. You would once again claim that the Jihad is 'internal' All the evidence in the world proves this is not the case and the primary goal of Jihad is the Islamification of the world, the establishment of the caliphate and establishment of Dar-ul-Islam.
Do you beleive in conspiracy theories at all? Especially those of which are completely made up?
You have the most twisted view of Jihad.
Jihad is a
violent struggle intended for your
defense when you become threatened both physically and spiritually (ie: prevention of practicing your religion) to
neutralize the threat.
Again. Jihand is a
defensive act where you
protect yourself by
fighting back. An "internal struggle" represents only 1/2 of Jihad, and it is VERY clear that it is violent, and there is no backing down from that. Any Muslim who argues it is PURELY an internal struggly and does not contain violence needs to review some of the Quran.
The goal of Jihad is to PROTECT yourself and YOUR COMMUNITY and YOUR RELIGION. There is no PURELY OFFENSIVE BELIGERENT ASPECT OF JIHAD.
It is NOT to go out and kill people wantonly as you CLAIM it is. It is NOT to go kill the infidel to show your piety. This is NOT Jihad,
rather this is your own desire to attach events and actions to a word based on how you see fit. The definition of Jihad has clearly existed for hundreds of years - if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, it isn't a cow! For you to claim otherwise is ludicrous!
If you disagree, SHOW to me the "real definition" of Jihad. Because apparantly I cannot find anything that shows of Jihad as a "war to turn the world into muslims through violence" and put it under a single "caliphate" in the Quran or the Hadith.
Furthemore, Every religion has aspirations for the world to hold their views: Christianity is clear with this and they do a GREAT deal of prostelyizing(sp?). Jews even wait for the day where the World will come under a single Jewish King IIRC. Are you going to start screaming about how they have secret Agendas? Of course Islam has this as well, but the difference is there is no existance of what you claim to be called "Jihad".
Furthermore to talk about a Caliphate is like talking about secret Chinese organizations aimed at bringing back the Chinese Emporer --> The Caliphate died out 900 years ago; and there was a period when it turned from a position passed down by the close companions of the Prophet Muhammed to a political authority that was only loosely linked to religion. Hard to bring the world under a single caliph when the position simply doesn't exist
I brought up those situations NOT as a justifacation of their actions, but to point out that you twist what is going on, and claim that "THIS IS WHAT IS HAPPENING AND NOTHING ELSE. IT IS THIS WAY REGARDLESS OF WHAT YOU SAY. ACCEPT IT!".
Muslims pay Zakat and Non Muslims pay Jizayah. Don't act as if Muslims do not pay tax. Do you want your tax dollars to fund Muslim activities or do you want it seperated so that it will not directly support Muslim causes? If you want to, feel free to pay Zakat.
The rest of your post is inflammatory, and shows that is is difficult to take ANY opinion from yourself on Islam as serious serious because you have such a hatred and venomous attitude towards it.
