Thats a great video except for one part when they call us arabs terrorists. The truth is so simple: The real terrorists are those who stole the land, killed innocent people, and kicked them out of their land (Zionists) And what arabs are doing is called #Resistance which is the way to go for anyone when their lands are being invaded. - Arab/Muslims are not terrorists - Islam is a very practical religion. It is not just about fake ideals that do not work. It is a religion that is meant to be implemented 100% in all actions of the Muslims life, and it is meant to promote peace and justice in the world. Therefore, Islam does allow Muslims to go to war, as mentioned in certain circumstances. This includes self-defence, and to remove aggression and injustice that has befallen people and to save them from their oppressors. The verses that tell Muslims to fight those who fight them were mentioned earlier. Below is the verse in the holy Quran that allows Muslims to fight against injustice. Permission [to fight] is granted to those who are being persecuted, since injustice has befallen them, and God is certainly able to support them [with victory]. They were evicted from their homes unjustly, for no reason other than saying, Our Lord is God. If it were not for Gods supporting of some people against others, monasteries, churches, synagogues, and mosques - where the name of God is commemorated frequently - would have been destroyed. Absolutely, God supports those who support Him. God is Powerful, Almighty. (Surah 22, Verses 39-40). This verse gives permission to those Muslims who fall under oppressive, unjust rule, and those Muslims who are being persecuted to fight to remove this oppression. Does Islam Permit Killing Civilians? Even in times of war, the Muslim must respect his adversaries humanity. Brutal and barbaric atrocities are prohibited in Islam. Islam condemns barbaric killing of any human being. Therefore, Islam does not permit the mutilation of the bodies of the dead enemy soldiers. Also, Islam prohibits the targeting and killing of all civilians, especially women, children, the elderly, and religious clergy. Enemies, even at time of war, must be treated justly. Prisoners of war have basic human rights, as stated in the Shariah (Islamic Law), and must be provided and cared for and not humiliated in any way. The following verses touch on some of these issues: O Prophet! say to those who are captives in your hands: If Allah findeth any good in your hearts, He will give you something better than what has been taken from you, and He will forgive you: for Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. (Surah 8, Verse 70). And they feed, for the love of Allah, the indigent, the orphan, and the captive, (Saying), We feed you for the sake of Allah alone: no reward do we desire from you, nor thanks. (Surah 76, Verses 8-9). In addition, the following were the instructions of Prophet Mohammad (pbuh) to Muslims who are forced to fight a war: Do not kill women or children or non-combatants and do not kill old people or religious people, and he mentioned priests, nuns and rabbis. And he said, Do not cut down fruit-bearing trees and do not poison the wells of your enemies. There are many more sayings and teachings of Prophet Mohammad that instruct Muslims on these issues. In addition to all this, Islam prohibits oppression, revenge or injustice to the people of the enemy in case of victory against them. Nor must there be control over the sources of the wealth of the nation or people, or even establishment of colonial regimes. Justice and freedom must be established. Tolerance towards cultures and peoples is to be respected at all times.
