Islamism = Terrorism

Reader comment on item: Not Calling Islamism the Enemy

Submitted by ToTelltheTruth (United States), Apr 14, 2006 at 14:44

Asserting that terrorism is not inherent to Islam is either uniformed or willfully untruthful.

Let's look at what one of Islam's own "holy books" say about the subject. The reports of the Prophet's sayings and deeds are called Hadith. Al-Bukhari's Hadith is second only to the Qur'an in importance to Muslims. It is comprised of the most authentic traditions associated with early Islam and the words of Muhammad.

Bukhari:V4B52N220 "Allah's Apostle said, ‘I have been made victorious with terror. The treasures of the world were brought to me and put in my hand.'"

Bukhari:V1B7N331 "The Prophet said, ‘I have been given five things which were not given to anyone else. Allah made me victorious with terror. The Earth was made for me…. Booty was made lawful for me yet it was not lawful for anyone else.'"

Other Hadith by other authors also go into this, but this one source alone reveals the lie about Islam being a "religion of peace." The Qur'an and other Hadith also say that it is OK to lie and use deceit and trickery against the infidels in the furtherance of the muslim cause, and that's what they are doing when they talk about the "religion of peace."
