Islam is itself destiny and will not suffer destiny.
According to Islamic principles, when a man is accused of heresy, he is given the choice between repentance and punishment.
Islam is a religion of success. Unlike Christianity, which has as its main image, in the west at least, a man dying in a devastating, disgraceful, helpless death.
Many Muslims may not seek to kill the infidel, but they don't want to condemn those carrying out the holy book command.
Many Muslims honor people of other faiths and do not kill.
I saw Islam as the correct way to live, and I chose to try to live that way.
My brother thinks it is very, very bad that I left Islam. My half-sister wants to convert me back; I want to convert her to Western values. My mum is terrified that when I die, and we all go to God, I will be burned.
It is not the punishment but the cause that makes the martyr.
Allah will help him who moves in the way of Allah.
The people who abandon Jihad fall a victim to humility and degradation.
