Is Islam a religion of Peace?

[BADecker]

I dont believe islam is a religion of peace most terrorist in the middle east were muslims and their religion is islam.

Blankly you can't say all terrorist in the middle east are terrorist. Sometimes people might be resembling same like the Muslims in their attire.

Islam is based on Koran and Hadiths.

Koran and Hadiths say to punish backsliding Muslims, and maybe execute them.

Backsliding Muslims are those who will not kill the infidels (people of other religions) after giving them a chance to convert to Islam, because the Koran and Hadiths say to kill the infidels.

Things like the Ankara attack is the strong Muslims weeding out the backsliders.

Islam teaches peace and tranquility. all religions teach it all. if there's no denying he is a person who has no faith and religion. he was not able to feel how the religious peace.

No. Absolutely no religion teaches peace. It's only that older religions like Judaism and Christianity had the time to evolve a bit and they're less violent today, while Islam is still young and violent. But all religion are basically: obey me or go to hell, kill the ones that don't believe in the same god or go to hell. That's all what religions are about.

Islam teaches peace and tranquility.....

Does Islam teach peace and tranquility if I am Muslim and decide that for my own peace and tranquility I am going to leave Islam?

I haven't read other replies, so sorry if somebody has said something similar to this.

I consider myself a Muslim, although I do not pray. I find almost all Muslims only pray to ask Allah for things. I don't want to ask him for worldly things, I only want to be accepted into paradise and everyone who deserves it be rewarded it.

I have similar views to Neil deGrasse Tyson, I believe in Allah (he'd use the word god) but I don't make my whole life about religion.

The one thing that confuses me about religion and Islam is that the people in the time of the prophets would have had an unfair advantage. They would know with certainty after seeing the miracles that god is real and they should be good to go to paradise. People today grow up only believing in something if they see it. Although I believe it is said every human being is given the chance to learn about Islam, and if not (say they die just after they're born) then they'll go to paradise so it doesn't matter.

One thing I can say and that I hope for is Shari'a law to be established everywhere completely accurately, then I know without a doubt no bad things will happen. There will be no such thing as a thieve or murderer.

I'd like to hear your guys opinions on what I've said, I'll reply to all of you.

Sure.  You'll just kill off all the thieves, murderers, adulterers, apostates, and how many others to establish your "peace on earth?"  Killing people would certainly be a growth industry in such a world of sharia law.

Historically, across the world in many cultures, such policies have not worked out well at all. 

Oh, by the way.  No, people in the 7th century who thought they say miracles will not automatically go to paradise.  This is utter nonsense.  I do not think you understand the teachings of your own religion regarding miracles.

I am an atheist, so it is nothing to me what you choose to believe.

If today's terrorist attack on Ankara was in Paris, Berlin or London, you would have seen the world leaders competing on who condemns first.

That shows double standart of western civilisation.
Western civilisation blames muslims to be terrorists but they created terror in where they have profit from chaos.
They founds a terrorist organisation with ignorant muslims who think that fighting in name of Islam. Then they gets made some terrorist attacks in cities. They hit two birds by one stone. First, they design target state's politics by that attack.  And second, they provoke islamophobia among people. France attacks could be shown as examples for that.
France declared that it will recognise Palestine as state. Few days later Paris Charlie Hedbo attack happened and terrorists were killed in a kosher shop. Could you get the, hint?  Who made that attack? Muslims. Why the eve of French recognition of Palestine? If you can look beyond of event you may see the main perpetrator.

The answer is that all religions are in their basics the religion of peace. But the problem is that people always have their own views on religious  teaching and they see the religious values as they wish the are and that is often used in a wrong way and for bad intentions.

Absolutely right!
None of religion orders nor advices violence. Christianity, Judaism and Islam never order killing people. Anyway, Islam word means peace in arabic language.
In Quran Allah orders fighting but only with who attacks you. To kill civilians, to kill unarmed people, even  to kill soldiers given up is strictly forbidden in Islam.
Do defend your homeland against enemy invade  makes you unpeaceful?  Ask yourself if one enemy attacks your country, what, do you do?  I hope you will find the answer

No. Who said we will kill them? I never said that and you're already assuming it, maybe go learn about Islam before telling me I don't know it.

Name one example.

I never said people who saw miracles would automatically go to paradise. I said they'd have an unfair advantage because they would have had proof of Allah and feared him more to be good and attain paradise. You may have to read this a few times to understand it before you reply.

Yes, I can tell you're an atheist, and if it is nothing to you what I choose to believe why did you reply to me? That's like saying I think nothing of a PS4 but I still own one. Maybe I should contact your family and ask them to get you professional help?

Don't care what some of people say. They don't know anything about islam but hearsays. Therefore, they think that islam kills everyone who does bad things.
An Atheist can't imagine serenity of belief in Allah. Just talks prejudiced

No matter what religion you are in it still depend on the people.
People are killed every day by gun or what ever.
Criminals who are in jail have religion to but they think of what religion they are when they did what they did.
So it really depend on the people and not on religion.

You wrote true.
Violence depends one's mentality and character.
I tried telling that maybe 1000 times but i think  they have a concealed thought about islam.

Yes it is, we are just bound to the common notion from the islamic terrorists. Because some other religions started wars too. I know IS is inhumane but not all islam community is Bad.

Problem is they use religious scripture (in this case Quran) as an excuse to kill.

Guys like you should stand against Quran, hell, all humanity should stand against it.

Remember, Muslims are prepared (and in most cases ready) to kill in the name of their religion.  That is what is fundamentally wrong with this religion.

Well if you look at the past most religion are ready to kill just defend what they believe in.
So islam is just being pressured as evil hence every one knows that its the mind of people not the religion.
