Is Terrorism a Muslim Monopoly?

Now a days there is a common notion among many people when any terror strikes in any part of the world that it is the work of a "Muslim" and many also think that it is called "Jihad" in the religion of peace, which is Islam

But here today i will try to clarify a few things.. some misconceptions regarding the religion of Peace - Islam

The Meaning of Islam - The literal meaning of Islam is peace; surrender of one’s will, surrendering one’s own pleasure for the pleasure of God, surrendering one's will to god

The first topic on which i would like to talk on today is Jihad

What is Jihad in Islam? Actually first i will try to explain the exact meaning of the Arabic word Jihad as it is the first and the main misconception in many non-Muslims. The meaning of Arabic word "Jihad" is to Strive.. which means that if any hindu, Christan, Jew or any human being strives.. like say for his day to day needs.. like bed and bread that means that he is on Jihad to make the ends meet... and jihad does not mean to fight on religious terms.. so now as it is clear that Jihad doesn't mean to fight only for religion.

The second and again the main thing and the main reason i created this blog is Terrorism

Is terrorism a Muslim Monopoly?

Just to cut the long story short and end this article in one sentence.. i can say that 'no terrorism is not a Muslim monopoly" but i know this will not be convincing to many non-Muslims and also to Muslims .

I would like to ask a simple question to my readers and also to each and every person on this planet about the war of Iraq.. i would like to ask that, just to arrest one person (Saddam Hussein) the great USA broke war on the whole country...technologically speaking as America is so fast and ahead in Technology.. was she unable to arrest a single person with the help of all her satellites and stuff? was that a good act? was that human? was that correct? how many innocent lives she took just to arrest one person.. i don't think it was a right deed.. it was inhuman, cruel, fierce, brutal.. i don't think i can ever get appropriate word to express my feelings on the war of Iraq.. why don't we term it as terrorism? coz it was the work of America?

I candidly say that.. all the terrorism acts taking place in every part of the world and each and every person involved in those heinous acts are not MUSLIMS.. coz Islam dose not give permissions for such kinda activities in any situations

As of the recent terror act on Mumbai some have to say that it was the work of the underworld don Dawood Ibrahim(A muslim by name)... i will again openly say that.. if it was really the work of Dawood then he is not a Muslim and also i can say that he dose not belong to any religion coz as far as my knowledge goes i think that every religion encourages peace and on that terms i said that he is not a Muslim and not a god fearing person..

The second thing we need to give a thought here is that the large part of Muslims live in Arab.. i mean UAE, and i have never heard of any terrorism there or any kind of planning of terror strike coming out of there.. why? and also the crime is less there compared to any other country... It is coz they follow Islamic rules and regulations where a murderer gets death sentence, a rapist get the same..

If Muslims are so terror loving then why is this kinda punishments in Islam?

Please give it a thought and remove all misconceptions about the Peace loving religion Islam by seeing some so called Muslims..Don't see Islam by the deeds of so called Muslims but see it thorough the message of Almighty Allah and you can find the message in the Holy Quran which was revealed on Prophet Muhammad PBUH

Any questions on Islam and Terrorism or anything that comes in your mind similar to this topic is welcomed
