RE: ISIS fighters don't get Islam - and that's really good

in #islam8 years ago

I've heard that there are violent passages in the Qur'an, so I appreciate you posting them. To be fair, though, the Bible has some violent passages in it too, but that doesn't make Christianity a violent religion. Context is important, and it's lacking when just a few verses are shared. The other thing to keep in mind is that an outsider to a religion will have a different perspective than a practitioner of the religion. It would be interesting to speak to a practicing Muslim and ask about where those verses fit into the big picture of the religion.

Sort:  

The context here is ISIS. The official propaganda now says that ISIS fighters don't know shit about Qur'an and Islam which is possible. But it's then only scary what they - already extremely violent as they are - would only be doing if they knew Islam better.

U made a very good point
