Terrorist attack in Mumbai

[dangerstat]

So what do you want us to do about it? This isn't Pokémon, crying wont bring them back.

Perhaps my showing some respect, and not replying with "This isn't Pokémon". My point is that (as I'm sure I have some support in saying), reactions that judge Muslims rather than just the people that conduct these attacks cause more harm than good

 

[ihatelag]

The kid at the train station with the AK looks like he's Indian...also his wristbands are not the usual thing a "islamist" terrorist would wear.

Anyway...whoever is responsible for the attacks are pretty sick minded and I hope India can find the people behind these attacks.

 

[fraps]

whoever did these actions are not behaving as Muslims by definition even if they may call themselves such

I've never heard of the 'Deccan Mujahedeen'?!

This could be a conspiracy

True

I've never heard of the 'Deccan Mujahedeen'?!

Any group can call themselves anything, theres thousands of groups you have never heard of.

Pretty ground shaking revelation for all the worlds religions.

Why exactly do you think all religions believe in the same god? despite very different stories histories and even numbers of gods.

Is Apollo Jesus?

Because in Islam they are the SAME god!

if you study islam you will see that Jesus was one of gods prophets, just like the prophet muhammed and every other prophet before him. They are all the same; moses, jesus, muhammed. Moses brought judaism, Jesus brought Christianity. All prophets are regarded in the same esteem in islam; none are better than the other or more sacred, all prophets are the same and equal.

To put it in simple and layman terms; god sent all the prophets before prophet muhammed to spread the word of god...they all tried to spread the correct word. Unfortunately, each time a prophet was sent the word of god and religion deviated from what god intended. So god sent more prophets, until muhammed, who spread the correct word of religion / god. So muhammed was gods last messenger and therefore the word he spread was the correct version. That is as simple as i can make it. In islam we are taught to respect all religions; christianity, judaism, etc...that is because really Islam contains parts of all of them, and why there are so many similarities between them; because they came before islam. So any reference to god means it is the same god, as it was the same god who in essence created all these religions. So when people say Allah as being anyone different, its not because it is the same. Allah is just arabic for god, nothing else, not some super being different to any other god worshiped in religion.

No, they are not Muslims according to your definition of Muslim. Just as they would say you are not a Muslim, because you interpret it differently.

 

[Tefal]

Because in Islam they are the SAME god!

, for all you ignorant people out there, the same god that everybody who believes in a god worships, be they christian/muslim etc.. its the SAME god)...
n.

So everyone who isn't a Muslim is ignorant :/

Just because your religion is cobbled together from it's neighbours (or does it also contain relics of Shinto/native American religion/every other one?), and so says it;s god is actually the god behind all of them, that makes it true?

prety ignorant way to look at it isn't it?

My truth is the only truth and all that...

 

[fraps]

No, they are not Muslims according to your definition of Muslim. Just as they would say you are not a Muslim, because you interpret it differently.

but their interpretation in such a case cannot even be described as an interpretation - it's like me saying I interpret 'do not kill' as 'kill'

 

[Azagoth]

Blah blah blah

Why do you people always try to justify these things by saying "Oh, but they're not real Muslims"? You know what, they're killing in the name of Allah and pray towards Mecca, so what does that make them then?

To me Islam is the excrement that clings to and stinks up this World. The sooner it's wiped away the better!

9:123 "O you who believe, fight those of the unbelievers near you and let them see how harsh you can be. Know that Allah is with the righteous." (Fakhry’s translation)


looks like it says start a fight to me.

Off course not; ignorance lies in not studying about the religion in the first place but making comment on it when all the facts aren't known. And lets be honest most of the people in here dont know anything about islam. But they just make blind assumptions which are completely false. So to all those people who start mocking Allah or mention Allah as being something wierd and wonderful being- comments like that show ignorance, as all it means is god in another language, thats all. Allah is no different to god because it MEANS god. I have seen so many comments like that which are born out of plain ignorance!!

I dont see how that is an ignorant way of looking at it?? Surely if you practice a religion then you follow its beliefs?? I follow mine, and my religion tells me to respect other religions...how is that a bad thing??

If someone believes in a native american religion then thats fine, I and we as muslims (should) respect that, i definitely do. I may not agree with it but i respect it.

Tefal, can i ask, do you believe in god? I ask because with your last comment seems a little strange to me. If you believe in god and what a religion teaches then 'my truth is the only truth' is correct, if it wasnt then you wouldnt be following that religion. Anyway, this is getting off topic,

lets just hope they get all these scumbags/cowards.

BRILLIANT!

Anywho, I digress. These attacks are sickening and it doesn't really matter who it is carrying them out, whether that be in the name of religion or just for ****s and giggles. Fact of the matter is that innocent lives are being taken and with that, my thoughts are with those who have lost anyone in these awfully tragic events.

Thanks for backing up my statements, you are a legend!

I agree, doesnt matter, innocent people are being hurt and i just hope no more do. im getting worrying info that this is going on down the street from my uncle so to say im worried is an understatement

You believe that crap, you even believe in that their is a GOD that created this universe.

The fact is Christians have moved on, they dont believe in going to other countries and blowing its people to bits, where as Islam does no matter how you look at it, show me a christian suicide bomber in this world, the Muslim/Islamics seem to think they are due something instead of going out there and doing something about it in a non violent way.

All they do is kill innocent people do you think people in Britain have not suffered over the past 90 years?

If it wasn't WW1 it was WW2 or the cold war then it was the IRA now fanatic Muslims

Oh the joy.

 

[MikeHunt79]

Sometimes I wish they had a real life version of Rainbow 6, even then I doubt it would be much of a deterrent...

Indeed, must be worrying times for you. And i don't want you to think I was picking you up on using "Muhammed" in your text above.

Well, I suppose I was actually... But, for all I care, it could have said Moses, Jesus or, hell, even Harry Potter. To me, they are all the same.

EDIT: Except Harry is QUALITY at Quidditch. The other two, not so...

 

[Azagoth]

And there it is

Oooh, someone with a different outlook to you! Shocking hey?

 

[Tefal]

No, and i don't believe there isn't one.

I don't believe that I posses the wisdom to decide the answer to that question either. So i will sit and observe, till i feel I've gained it, or more likely I reach the point where the answer will be made clear, for better or worse.

 

[Naan_H]

You believe that crap, you even believe in that their is a GOD that created this universe.

I will believe that there is a god. From what you have said, i would be worried about the state of christianity if christians didnt believe in god.

The fact is Christians have moved on, they dont believe in going to other countries and blowing its people to bits.

America has taken care of that; iraq / afghanistan anyone?

it in a non violent way.

The likelihood of this happining is next to nothing. When have fanatics of whatever cause every done anything in a non-violent way?? When you see whats happened in palestine its not hard why you see people turn to violence.

All they do is kill innocent people do you think people in Britain have not suffered over the past 90 years? If it wasn't WW1 it was WW2 or the cold war then it was the IRA now fanatic Muslims. Oh the joy.

Dont forget it was Britain who went round the world terrorising a while back, including where these attacks are happening today. If people just go invading countries and start wars (america, israel in palestine), there is only going to be one result - a fight, a retaliation. Its not rocket science. Its just the way humans are.

I am no advocater of violence, be it from a muslim or whoever. Its just not right but its going to take more than just berating islam or these fanatics around the world to make it stop, it is going to have to involve EVERYBODY sacrificing, including the likes of america, britain, israel etc..

EDIT: Except Harry is QUALITY at Quidditch. The other two, not so...

Lol Id have to agree with you there!!
