Let's see what the prophet Mohammed -peace be upon him- said about terrorism:

Esa/Jesus a Prophet of Allah/God

Assalaamu alaikum [peace be on to you],

I hear of some people...

... People who claim to be Muslims...

... People who claim to follow the footsteps of the prophet Mohammed -peace be upon him-...

... but what I saw was not Islam... not what prophet Mohammed taught... and not what a sane human would do...

... I saw terrorism.

and it was called "Islamic terrorism"...

Praise be to the One God (Creator), There are no different "versions" of Islam (Submission only to The Creator in Peace). there is only one Islam. except it is falsehood. if you interpret it correctly, you are right, if you don't interpret it incorrectly you are wrong. and the only way to interpret it correctly is by returning to the way the prophet of Islam practiced and taught Islam.

Let's see what the prophet Mohammed -peace be upon him- said about terrorism:
من خرج على أمتي ، يضرب برها وفاجرها ، ولا يتحاش من مؤمنها، ولا يفي لذي عهد عهده ، فليس منى ولست منه
"Whoever comes out of my nation, hits the good and the bad, without avoiding the believers, without keeping a pledge given to someone, then he has nothing to do with me and I have nothing to do with him"

let's ponder:
- "whoever comes out of my nation". he obviously mean the "Muslim nation".
- "hits the good and the bad" means harms everybody.
- "without avoiding the believers" means his harm even reaches the believers.
- "without keeping a pledge given to someone". non-Muslims living in a Muslim country are automatically in a pledge with the Muslims. that's why they're called in Arabic "dhimmi" which means non-Muslims under the protection of the Muslims.
- "then he has nothing to do with me and I have nothing to do with him" means he's not a Muslim and has nothing to do with the prophet of Islam.

I hear in the news of some terrorist groups killing Christians and destroying their churches in Muslim lands. it's too painful. and what makes it more painful is that these terrorists claim they're applying Islam. I don't want to be specific and give names because I want my condemnation to be general for everyone who does such crimes in the name of Islam.

the prophet Mohammed -peace be upon him- said:
مَنْ قَتَلَ مُعَاهَدًا لَمْ يَرِحْ رَائِحَةَ الْجَنَّةِ وَإِنَّ رِيحَهَا تُوجَدُ مِنْ مَسِيرَةِ أَرْبَعِينَ عَامًا
"Someone who unjustly kills one in a pledge (with Muslims) cannot get a whiff of Heaven. However, its fragrance is felt from a distance of forty years"

and

ألا من ظلم معاهداً أو انتقصه أو كلفه فوق طاقته أو أخذ منه شيئاً بغير طيب نفس فأنا حجيجه يوم القيامة
"Whoever wrongs a dhimmi or takes from him [by force] or charges him more than he can, I am his adversary in Judgement day."
You get the idea? these are quotes from the prophet you never hear in the Western Media which always aims to vilify Islam by linking it to the un-Islamic terrorist acts.

Now do you think a person claiming to be a Muslim would go and kill an innocent non-Muslim and become an adversary to the prophet of Islam? do you think a Muslim would go and destroy the houses of worship of non-Muslims and disobey the One God Almighty?
The prophet Mohammed never did or taught such barbaric things. Islam doesn't teach such evil.
These churches existed for long centuries under Islamic rule and were protected by Muslims and nobody harmed the Christians. Why would some people come today with their twisted interpretations of Islam and destroy these churches and want us to believe this is Islam while they're obviously contradicting the core teachings of the Qur'an and the prophet of Islam.
Sadly the Western Media fuels these misconceptions by using words such as "Islamic terrorism" and "Muslim terrorists" which makes one assume these acts of terrorism are inspired from the teachings of Islam.

It's time to learn the facts. terrorism has no religion. it targets people regardless of their creed and color. these terrorists are just terrorists (they could even be with no religion). They just use Islam to justify their agenda. if there was no Islam, they would have used any other religion or available ideology for the same purpose. Islam is obviously innocent from the persecutions done in its name we see in many Muslim and Arab lands achieved by ignorant extremists and backward lunatics. Islam says no to such crimes.

I call my Muslim brothers and sisters to speak up and express their disapproval of the transgressions and oppressions done in the name of Islam. many Non-Muslims don't know Islam. what they see is wrong. and there is no way they know the truth about Islam if we don't talk and let them hear our voices. Islam is ‘deen’ way of life of peace. and peace is what our prophet -peace be upon him- taught.

If I'm right, it's from the God almighty. if I'm wrong, it's from myself.
