Problem of Islam is it has allowed itself to be governed by uneducated religious leaders, who think their way of interpreting their Holy Scripture is the best. There is no room for self evaluation self criticism etc. The so called educated and knowledgeable don't open their mouth because of the fear of fanatics. The educated Muslims should take a stand and throw out ill informed and hate spreading religious leaders. It is a general observation, when Muslims form a minority group in India or elsewhere in the they demand rights and freedom, which they definitely deserve. But in the countries where Muslims are a majority or a slight majority they try to oppress the freedom of religion and expression of all other religious faiths. This duplicity should be eradicated from within. Name one Islamic nation that allows the free religious practice of any other religion. This should change.

There is no mistake in interpreting Koran.
Koran clearly says: 1. Its the duty of real Mulsims to convert or kill all non-believers. 2. Its the duty of real Mulsims to take over the whole world for A11ah. 3. Its the duty of real Mulsims to keep women under purdah, uneducated, slave of men.

1)there r sum people who think knowledge and learning is useless, so they dont learn or study nything... 2) there r some ppl who r hungry and desperate to get to the "REALITY" so they do a deep research and study and learn everything and in the end they speak and make correct decisions... 3) there exists a group of ppl (in huge numbers) who only study or read few lines but they never finish the complete study of a particular thing and everything of their life is incomplete leaving thm with wrong solutions.... my dear friend if u r rilly so much interested in Quran and Islam thn y not put those 3 points of urz on some islamic scholar website ? maybe u r just afraid to hear or listen or read the truth and reality....anywayz, i think u forgot to read tht line of Quran where its metioned "they r deaf, dumb and blind......" and i guess u recognize who....GOD....only u can understand theze type (3) ppl....

Syed, People like you should come out in open and question the super authority of your religious leadership. If you believe in a God who will take care of everything you need not fight a war to save your religion. If it is God's religion He will save. He does not need fighting to propagate and protect a religion.
first try to understand what others are saying before blindly commenting. Will u question the super authorities of ur religion, leave alone religion, will u question ur bosses in ur office??? Religion, immaterial of which it may be, is a sacred and personal affair. Do you know wat Jihad means? Its people like u who have wrongly misinterpreted the most noble religion of the world, ISLAM.

If Islam is so peaceful why there is so much of violence even in Muslim land. Why there is no freedom of religion and choice is Islamic nations. Yes, I question when someone is wrong. If religion is such a personal affair why it is brought in public and fought. Teach your own folk Jihad means peace. Any super authority anywhere whether in religion of politics should be questioned, that is civilization not just blindly following whatever they say. Nobility should not just be in words or on paper it should be in action. There is no other religion that kills man in the name of religion than misrepresented ISLAM. People like you should prove to the world that it is noble.
