9:111 is in the Qur'an

Reader comment on item: Symposium: Holiday Jihad?

Submitted by jennifer solis (United States), Dec 16, 2007 at 15:37

I would be curious as to what Daniel Pipes, Bruce Teft, and Robert Spencer think of this:

The verse, 9:111, in the Qur'an, is the verse describing the surest, truest way of salvation (eternity in Paradise) for the Muslim: to die by killing the infidel.

A pivotal issue in both Islam and Christianity is salvation. Christianity (the West) sates it is received only through faith in Christ. Islam (Islamism) states it is undeniably given to those Muslims who kill infidels, and are killed doing so. The "Five Pillars" are a maybe-yes maybe-no.

Therefore, is the Qur'an 9:111 and 9/11/01 connection or coincidence?
