More Muslims replace the Muslims that were blown up.
In fact our religion is sweeping the world even thou Islam's enemies have been at work 24-7 for 100s of years but no matter how weak we get -- we will never collapse because this what our beloved prophet (pbuh) informed us just as he informed us that we were not going to lose against Rome (which we didn't) and that we were going to conquer constantinople (which we did) and that there will come a time when shepherds build high-rise buildings.

Islam doesnt encourage people to kill each other,this i what the media wants everyone to see islam.those ppl who kill are paid from foreign organisations.islam is very wise and we respect everyone
If you do not believe in God then who do you worship? And I agree, muslims do comit vile acts as do people of other faiths but Islam as taught and followed by the Prophet and his companions and those who follow their way, it's the most perfect and balanced methodology. We are not too extreme so to we cause harms to others, nor are we too soft so we allow people to run all over us. We commited to the family structure and taking care of the community. We hate oppresion and injustice.
I agree, people can choose when they are of age and live their life how they please. I was a Sikh, I converted to Islam 9 years ago and I did so because for something to be true, it has to proven with evidence. Islam answered my questions did so without any room for debate or argument due to the evidence. So if you do not believe in any creator, how did you come in to existence because before you were born, you were nothing, and that which is nothing can create anything, so who gave you life?
You have not answered my question, who gave you life? the flowers you mentioned, who put them there? the world we live in, who created it. Who placed the sun where it is? Who causes the night to follow the day? why do various other species look the same yet humans all look different? What is rhe purpose of human life?
If I said to you the car I drive or the pen that I write with were not created but a consequence of the nature of the universe, you would call me mad, or would you? The reason I asked you for the purpose of human life is because everything is created for a purpose, and I wanted to know why you think humans were in existance. Flowers e.g sunflowers all look the same, roses all look the same yet no 2 humans look the same unless they are identical twins.
I'm just trying to get across to you the absurd argument that we are on earth by chance, not created. For you to say we humans are not created hence have to purpose which are existance requires us to have, you have made a pen or even toilet roll more valuable then human life for these were created for a purpose. Yet humans who are far superior to these things, according to you, are not created and have no purpose. We live and we die and that's it.. So I question your intelligence of lack of..
You claim Hindus are wise. Where is the wisdom in making something with your own hands and claiming it's god? Where is the wisdom in marrying a man to a dog with the hope this mariage will send them rain? Where is the wisdom of the caste system?
You said in an earlier post that Muslims took their wisdom from the hindus & buddhists. You know of Islam that which you hear on news channels and nothing of the religion as taught by the Prophet. You think all muslims kill people unjustly. Well, who's killed the most people unjustly in the 20th century...? Christians, that's who. But you attack Islam for things which Islam is free from so shame on you. Ignorant people should remain quiet so please do not reply/
And what is your source? CNN? BBC? and all those kafir newsstations that are not standing on our side ! and we should believe them. If you want to find out what is truly happening go and look for yourself because every time u post a comment its abour 100 mil muslims are killed 500 mill there. WE DONT BELIEVE AND WE DONT TAKE UR WORD. ur waisting ur worthless time
Repeating again dumbass lets put things in perspective and we'll notice who the real terrorist are. Go and study that. But the thing is you dont want to do that. Because what lets you start this accusation isnt about how many muslims have been killed by what you're claiming by other muslims. It is your hatred against islam. And thats why its useless to discuss against you. And the reason why im responding to it is to make it clear to others about you Open your eyes cause you are the blind man!
The statistic is proof that Islam is not the reason for terrorist attacks. The statistic still has merit because you are noting it about something static, i.e. religions are static.
It is you who is either clouding the issue, or too stupid to understand my actual point.
Therefore, you're either stupid or ignorant.
So far, you demonstrated yourself to be both.
lol and ur telling me how to conduct a proper discussion -- no comment about that.
Your heart is like a stone towards islam, and your words are filled with hatred and arent proving anything except how much hate you have for islam. I mean look at your comments :/ The only thing you can say is Islam is terrorisme. Like i said previos which you havent comment on. GO AND STUDY those who have Stolen all the goods from Africa, from the middle east and MANY more. You leave them in a clear daylight and you are saying islam is always in the dark ages? GET YOUR MIND STRAIGHT
Confused man? I live my own life, and do not let anyone manipulate me. i dont care what they think about islam. It doesnt make me weaker it makes me stronger. I know what i want and i put my effort behind it. Thats not something we can say about you.
Throbule: But i do not go to the past to decide on the future.
Well thats a hypocritical statement. In this case you arent doing that, but about islam you do :/
LIKE I SAID BEFORE GET YOUR MIND STRAIGHT YOU IGNORANT FOOL
and im from Africa im born in Africa my family lives in Africa. So how can you even say you know more about Africa then me. When you dont even know ANYTHING about me:/
go and life your pathetic live full with hatred towards islam. When you reach your last moments in this live you will notice that you didnt evovle form a monkey LOL
And about your "discursive powers" if you look you will notice you havent come further than that you are now. You havent prove anything. I even told to look in perspective but you didnt want to do that. Then it ends because you look only at one line. While there are hundreds
This guy is a stupid confused prick who is living in the future . you say dont talk about the past so its lyk u have done nothing ure a fool. even in the present more muslims are killed than any 1 else . YOU NEED TO GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT
And lets put things in perspective if we look how many muslims have been killed by you KAFIRS IT OUTWEIGHSSSS our actions. If we look how many muslims have been killed in: Afgahnistan, chechnya, Pakistan, Iraq, Iran, Somalia Only in iraq the SANCTIONS that are put on them have killed OVER a Million. should i go on?
subhanAllah, one of the best tilawats i have ever heard. another great gem in the collection of Qari Basit. Allah continue to shower blessings on him! be sure to listen to all 3 parts.

throbule..pls look at the ppl or factions doing the killing then come back
and say if most of the killing is done the name of allah..you will find that its not true muslims
if you had any idea of the true islam hich is following the quran believing in one Allah and the sunah
then everthing you saying is irrelevant..you seem to be very angry and i pry you find peace within yourself

go look at 1996 federal department statistics:
Islam was the 6th ranking religion attributed to terrorist attacks, and Sikhism was 1st.
Its called Divide and Conquer. Religions don't change overnight.
And, yes undeniably it was the Americans who blew up Iraq.
Had it been Islam, Iraq would have been blown up long time ago.
You have no facts so it is really you who is the joke.

Very interesting.
Let us not ask about the men who blow up the buses, let us look at the men who blow up the countries.
Those numbers even over time. Do they add up to how much civilians died in WWII
50 million.
Who blew up 2 entire cities with 2 nuclear bombs, was it the Muslims ?
Who colonized and humiliated almost every country on the face of the earth, was it the Muslims ?
