- "Fight in the cause of God those who fight you, but do not transgress limits; for God loveth not transgressors. (The Noble Quran, 2:190)"
- "But if the enemy incline towards peace, do thou (also) incline towards peace, and trust in God: for He is One that heareth and knoweth (all things). (The Noble Quran, 8:61)"
- "If thou dost stretch thy hand against me, to slay me, it is not for me to stretch my hand against thee to slay thee: for I do fear God, the cherisher of the worlds. (The Noble Quran, 5:28)"
- "God does not forbid you from showing kindness and dealing justly with those who have not fought you about religion and have not driven you out of your homes. God loves just dealers. (The Noble Quran, 60:8)"
- "And fight them until persecution is no more, and religion is for God. But if they desist, then let there be no hostility except against wrongdoers. (The Noble Quran 2:193)"
- "Let there be no compulsion in religion: Truth stands out clear from error: whoever rejects evil and believes in Allah hath grasped the most trustworthy handhold, that never breaks. And Allah heareth and knoweth all things. (The Noble Quran, 2:256)"
- "Again and again will those who disbelieve, wish that they had bowed (to God's will) in Islam. Leave them alone, to enjoy (the good things of this life) and to please themselves: let (false) hope amuse them: soon will knowledge (undeceive them). (The Noble Quran, 15:2-3)"
- "Say, 'The truth is from your Lord': Let him who will believe, and let him who will, reject (it):......(The Noble Quran, 18:29)"
- "If it had been thy Lord's will, they would all have believed,- all who are on earth! wilt thou then COMPEL mankind, against their will, to believe! (The Noble Quran, 10:99)"
- "Say: 'Obey Allah, and obey the Messenger: but if ye turn away, he is only responsible for the duty placed on him and ye for that placed on you. If ye obey him, ye shall be on right guidance. The Messenger's duty is only to preach the clear (Message). (The Noble Quran, 24:54)"
- "Say : O ye that reject Faith! I worship not that which ye worship, Nor will ye worship that which I worship. And I will not worship that which ye have been wont to worship, Nor will ye worship that which I worship. To you be your Way, and to me mine. (The Noble Quran, 109:1-6)"
Note on the "Jihad" Noble Verses:
The so-called "Jihad" Noble Verses came for specific times and places. They don't apply for all times and everybody! I can't slay you, a non-Muslim, just because you're not a Muslim. The pagan Arabs were very hostile people and only knew the sword as an answer. Many wars were imposed upon the Muslims, and thus, it is only normal and natural to find Noble Verses that deal with these specific hostile situations. But the Ultimate and Overall Message of the Noble Quran is PEACE, as clearly proven in the Noble Verses above.
Please read the relevant articles below for much more proofs and details.
Islam, Jihad, War, Captives and the terrorism LIE:
1- The attack on the US, and terrorism in Islam:
My explanation to the "Attack" on the US from the Islamic perspective. See the debate that I made up between pro and anti Sept. 11 attack on the US using the Noble Quran for both sides. You judge for yourself.
Was 9/11 Prophesized in Islam?
Minister (Sheikh) Qaradawi's Islamic verdict that denounced the attack on the U.S.
If the US bombs a Muslim country with a Nuclear bomb, would Islam then allow for the Muslims to bomb the Americans with Nuclear Weapons?
Is the US being a "Jesus Christ" or a Zionist dog?
Tribute to the United States of America. Tribute to the Wonderful American People.
Islam and the US Constitution. See similarities between Islam and the US Constitution.
Is the suicide bombing in Israel allowed in Islam?
2- Jihad and the laws of war, war times, and the treatment of enemy Civilians and Captives:
What is Jihad and the laws of war in Islam?
Peaceful Jihad through the Noble Quran and preaching Islam.
Jihad (Fighting for the Cause of GOD Almighty) started with the Bible!
Why does Islam have Jizyah (money paid by non-Muslims in the Islamic State) law? How should Muslims treat enemy civilians and innocents.
Does Islam really allow the killing of innocent unbelievers?
Unbelievers: Be persecuted or forgiven?
How did Islamic people handle believers in other faiths during the time period of the Crusades?
How to propagate Islam. Muslims can not transgress the limits when dealing with the enemy.
Can Muslims torture prisoners of war?
Is Ethnic cleansing allowed in Islam?
3- Apostates (renegades) and Human equality:
YES, freedom of Religion is allowed in Islam! Islam totally disagree with Afghanistan's Taliban or any Muslim State that execute any Muslim for deserting Islam! Islam also totally disagrees with killing any non-Muslim Missionaries trying to spread their religion in Muslim States. See the proof for yourself from the Noble Quran.
Believe it or not, freedom of Religion IS NOT allowed in real Christianity!
Human equality in Islam V.S. Christianity. See how the Bible's Old and New Testaments encourage slavery, and how Islam came to end the thousands of years old Pagan and Judeo-Christian slavery.
4- Revenge in Islam?, Tumult and Oppression:
If someone tries to kill you, and fails, are you allowed to kill him back in Islam?
Does Islam really encourage Muslims to take revenge?
Forgiveness and revenge in Islam. There is a difference between being a peaceful person, and a coward hypocrite in Islam.
I am sorry for Mr. Nick Berg. But the US killed MANY IRAQI Nick Berg babies with its Deplete Uranium!!! See pictures...
5- The laws of punishment for Murder:
What does Allah Almighty say about Justice for all in an Islamic State?
6- The Islamic Government and declaration of war:
What is the definition of Democracy in Islam? How does Islam practice Democracy?
Does Islam allow for individuals to make their own verdicts and fight the enemy, or should the government do that? What does Islam say about that?
Prophet Muhammad predicted the coming of the "dictators" and bad leaders.
Muslims are commanded by Allah Almighty to raise the wrath of the fight-seeking disbelievers toward them, and to fight evil with courage.
7- Did Islam spread by the sword?
Why did Muhammad take up arms and Christ didn't? Why did Islam spread by the sword if it were indeed a Religion of Truth, and Christianity didn't? See my response to this misunderstanding. Did you know that even Jesus killed his enemies in the Bible?
What does the Qu'ran say about violence? Why does the Noble Quran contain Verses that command the Muslims to fight? See the justified and good reasons behind it.

{Invite (mankind, O Muhammad ) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom (i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur'an) and fair preaching, and argue with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.}
(Holy Quran-16:125)
{And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in His Oneness)," and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: "I am one of the Muslims."} (Holy Quran-41:33)
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "By Allah, if Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of camels." [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim]
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also said, "Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all."
[Muslim, Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, an-Nasaa'ee, at-Tirmidhee, Ibn Maajah]
