Religion of Peace & Love

Is Islam a Religion of Peace? Is Islam a Religion of Peace – Short Speech by a British Political Journalist Mehdi Hasan

Full Speech length is 13:48

Muslim journalist Mehdi Hasan, political editor of the Huffington Post, warns Anne-Marie Waters that her “astonishing claims” might endanger her future as a Labour Party candidate, but assured her “don’t worry, the BNP will take you”.

Hasan asks why, if Islam is “responsible for killing,” such a tiny percentage of believers actually participate in violence. He asks the audience if they really believe that 1.6 billion people are all “followers, promoters and believers in a religion of violence”. Hasan urges them not to “fuel the arguments of the phobes and bigots and legitimise hate”, but to “trust the Muslims that you know and that you hear.”

MOTION: HOUSE OF THE OXFORD UNION SOCIETY (est. 1823) BELIEVES ISLAM IS A RELIGION OF PEACE.

Does Islam really order the killing of the non-believers? Mufti Menk clarifies the misconception. Allah says in Quran 2:190 “And fight in the Way of Allah those who fight you but transgress not the limits. Truly, Allah likes not the transgressors.” https://quran.com/2/190

Quran 5:32 whoever kills a soul unless for a soul or for corruption [done] in the land – it is as if he had slain mankind entirely. And whoever saves one – it is as if he had saved mankind entirely. https://quran.com/5/32

was really Muhammed violent while Jesus was peaceful? Waseem Razvi clarifies it the right way.
Luke 19:26 ‘I tell you that to everyone who has, more will be given, but from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away. 27 But as for these enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and slaughter them before me.’” 28And when he had said these things, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem. https://biblehub.com/esv/luke/19.htm
