Bismillah
Welcome to the board, and thankyou for joining us, and for your contribution. Well Islam is spreading as u can see in spite of all this wrong concepts about it, and without any holy wars. On the contrary it is bush who is leading a holy war against Islam. Just today I heard on Tv that a whole tribe in china embraced Islam in the 1990's because of a small community of muslim
hui's.
If most of u non muslims, search or read about Islam from the right sources and not what is in media, u will know that Islam is not as pictured.
Prophet Muhammad(PBUH) was sent as mercy to all humanity
:bismillah:
107. And We have sent you (O Muhammad ) not but as a mercy for the 'Alamîn
21, Surat Al-Anbiya'
28. And We have not sent you (O Muhammad ) except as a giver of glad tidings and a warner to all mankind, but most of men know not.
34, Surat Saba'
104. Let there arise out of you a group of people inviting to all that is good (Islâm), enjoining Al-Ma'rûf (i.e. Islâmic Monotheism and all that Islâm orders one to do) and forbidding Al-Munkar (polytheism and disbelief and all that Islâm has forbidden). And it is they who are the successful.
3, Surat Al-Imran
The above is just a few of many verses showing that Islam is not but mercy to all human kind, but sorry to say that mankind do not know th truth about it because of the wrong propaganda spread about it.
Anyways, consider this a begining, it is late for me now to write more, by will of Allah(SWT) I will try to explain more in the future along with my brothers ans sisters, and maybe insha'Allah u will then know how respond to others defending Islam and not against :).
Again welcome to the forum, and any other questions do not hesitate to ask, but I hope u would do some search on our topics, maybe u will find your answers.:)
Peace
