You who believe! Retaliation is prescribed for you in the case of people killed: free man for free man, slave for slave, female for female. But if someone is absolved by his brother, blood-money should be claimed with correctness and paid in good will. That is an easement and a mercy from your Lord. Anyone who goes beyond the limits after this will receive a painful punishment (Qur'an 2:178)

(...) So we decreed for the tribe of Isreal that if someone kills another person-unless it is in retaliation for someone else or for causing corruption in the earth-it is as if he had murdered all mannkind. And if anyone gives life to another person, it is as if he had given life to all mankind. Our messengers came to them with Clear Signs but even after that many of them committed outrages in the earth. (Qur'an 5:31-32)

Say: Come and I will recite to you what your Lord has made forbidden to you: that you do not associate anything with Him; that you are good to your parents; that you do not kill your children because of poverty-We will provide for you and them; that you do not approach indecency-outward or inward; that you do not kill any person Allah has made inviolate-except with the right to do so. That is what He instructs you to do so that hopefully you will use your intellect. (Qur'an 6:151)

(Believers are) those who do not call on any other god together with Allah and do not kill anyone Allah has made inviolate, except with the right to do so, and do not fornicate; anyone who does that will receive an evil punishment. (Qur'an 25:68)

Fight in the Way of Allah against those who fight you, but do not go beyond the limits. Allah does not love those who go beyond the limits. (Qur'an 2:190)

Fight them until there is no more discord and the religion belongs to Allah alone. If they cease, there should be no enmity towards any but wrongdoers. (Qur'an 2:193)

Fighting is prescribed for you even if it is hateful to you. It may be that you hate something when it is good for you and it may be that you love something when it is bad for you. Allah knows and you do not know. (Qur'an 2:216)

Do you not see those who were told: Hold back from fighting but perform prayer and give the alms? Then when fighting is prescribed for them, a group of them fear people as Allah should be feared, or even more than that. They say, “Our Lord, why have you prescribed fighting for us? If only you would give us a little more time!” Say, “The enjoyment of this world is very brief. The hereafter is better for those who guard against evil. You will not be wronged by the smallest speck.”(Qur'an 4:77)

Permission to fight is given to those who are fought against because they have been wronged-truly Allah has the power to come to their support-those who were expelled from their homes without any right, merely for saying “Our lord is Allah”. (Qur'an 22:39-40)

If two parties of the believers fight, make peace between them. But if one of them attacks the other unjustly, fight the attackers until they revert to Allah's command. If they revert make peace between them with justice, and be even-handed. Allah loves those who are even-handed. (Qur'an 49:9)

Allah does not forbid you from being good to those who have not fought you in the religion or driven you from your homes, or from being just towards them. Allah loves those who are just. (Qur'an 60:8)

Allah merely forbids you from taking as friends those who have fought you in the religion and driven you from your homes and who supported your expulsion. Any who take them as friends are wrongdoers. (Qur'an 60:9)

Mankind! We created you from a male and female, and made you into peoples and tribes so that you might come to know each other. The noblest among you in Allah's sight is the one of you who best performs his duty. Allah is All-Knowing, All-Aware. (Qur'an 49:13)


NOTE: ALLAH MEANS GOD in Arabic.

What all the above mean is that Muslims should not be cowardly, fighting and dying in the process is better than OPPRESSION by the Zionists in Palestine and the White House, even if they have bigger guns, bigger power...that's NOTHING, because what you are fighting for is for the survival of your faith and your rights to your land and your faith!!

SO DON;R EXPECT MUSLIMS TO TAKE IT ALL LYING DOWN, ANOTHER IVASION, MANY MORE INVASIONS...THERE'LL BE NO END TO THE OPPRESSION IF WE TAKE IT, AND KEEP TAKING IT.

Please understand and ask yourself WHAT IS PEACE WITHOUT JUSTICE? IS THERE SUCH A CONCEPT?

IN ISLAM THERE IS NO PEACE WHEN THERE IS NO JUSTICE.
Look back in time, look around you now, is there peace and injustice at the same time? Answer is obvious : NO.

That is why justice is important in Islam.God loves the just, not the oppressor.

Where there is no justice there will be no peace.

When you oppress a people (whatever religion you are) you will not achieve peace. When you invade a place, when you put in government puppets to serve your own agenda while you reside thousands of miles away, when you 'engineer' conflicts to serve your interests, this is called INJUSTICE and OPPRESSION and DECEIPT...and guess what there will be no PEACE, which you then talk about as though it is YOU who are seeking it when it you who are doing your best to avoid it, kill it...TO SERVE YOUR INTERESTS.

There are only two types of peopl in the final analysis, those who have conscience and those who put aside any conscience for the sake of the love of this world.

Mankind! We created you from a male and female, and made you into peoples and tribes so that you might come to know each other. The noblest among you in Allah's sight is the one of you who best performs his duty. Allah is All-Knowing, All-Aware. (Qur'an 49:13)

Therefore be patient with a patience which is beautiful. (Qur'an 70:5)

If you want to retaliate, retaliate to the same degree as the injury done to you. But if you are patient, it is better to be patient. (Qur'an 16:126)

Islam is NOT BLACK OR WHITE. It is subtle. In Islam patience is a great virtue, so for those who want to be thinkers...fighting is a last resort, patience and endurance have their place. God created the children of Adam and has Blessed ALL the children of Adam (Look for reference of this in the Quran). The only distinction btween humanity is truthfulness/deceitfulness, righteousness/oppression, lover of God/hater of God.

Islam is for all peoples of all races, all colours.
