*Dude, what’s wrong with you? Why would you just randomly add something to one of my posts? We’ve already gone over it a hundred times, the answer is No. You’re just looking for anyway to trash us and by showing how unable you are to accept information, I get it now. Nothing I or anyone says will ever get through to you unless it fits into your world view despite all evidence to the contrary. I am deeply offended by what you just did; don’t ever do that again. *

Fatuma,
Pardon me if you’re offended. I know there are good muslims who condemn suicide bombings and say it’s un-Islamic, and one of them is you. But very few condemns those acts. I haven’t heard of Islamic leaders who are united and cohesive and firm in condemning such murders. Again, very few of them have condemned that in public. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I have heard that in Madrassas such as in Pakistan and other Islamic countries, the students are taught to hate Western countries and brand them as enemies of Islam. They are taught to hate the infidels at a very young age. And worst, suicide bombings is viewed as a “sacrifice” and “an act of martyrdom” and anyone who does that will automatically get to heaven. They even quote from the Quran to prove it.
I may say that there are good acts of martyrdom in Islam, but it is mingled with bad acts. Also, who has the authority in Islam that all muslims must adhere to, especially in interpreting the Quranic texts?
