Zubair Khan,

If you are correct in your assessment that the Koran has not changed over the last 1400 years, then there is really a problem with a book that talks of hatred and killing. Are you saying that the Koran has always told its followers to kill in the name of God? Can it be so that the loving God of Islam says to kill? ... The veil is not only covering muslim women, it is covering all those that are covered in the darkness of Islam. To be a muslim one must commit to the book, but to do so means you actually know what it says and that you are familiar with its contents. I challenge you to read it in its entirety (in your own language - not Arabic, unless that is your native language) and read it with an open mind. Think about how it speaks of hatred, killing, the abuse of women and children and how it never uses the word "Love" in conjunction with the word "God". Allah is not the loving God who created you and I, he will not be the one to accept you as a wonderful, peaceful,loving being into eternity, be deceived no longer.

Make a stand Zubair and help others to understand that the truth will set them free. I tell you these things because I have read the koran and know what it says (no immam need translate for me as I am literate). The great satan is not in America, it is right here in the middle east.
