The Translation of the Holy Quran to English
By Dr. Thomas B. Irving (Al-Hajj Ta’lim ‘Ali)
The commands of God (Quran) is in our hands.
Why are we listening to the point of view and obeying the orders of people?
In your point of view, what is this called?
Dear friends, There are some people who have never read the Holy Quran
and without having a minimal level of understanding of this Book and its structure,
they are constantly looking for some verses in the Holy Quran to prove their false point of view.
They make allegations against Quran by taking some verses
completely out of its context.
Such deliberate misinterpretations are nothing but a cheap shot.
In Islam not only normal friendship with non-Muslims is not prohibited, but also Muslims are specifically encouraged
to deal justly and compassionately with those who do not fight with them and who do not drive them out of their homes and lands.
As a matter of fact, One can come to the conclusion that,
Islam does condemn
violence against innocent non-Muslims who don’t initiate an attack
against Muslims:
“God does not forbid
you, with regard to those who do not fight you for (your) faith, nor drive you
out of your homes;
from dealing
kindly and justly with them; for God
loves those who are just.
God only forbids you, with
regard to those who fight you for (your) faith, and drive you out of your
homes,
and support (others) in driving you out, from turning to
them (for friendship and protection).
Whoever seeks such
protection, they are the unjust.” (Ch.60, V8, V9).
I strongly suggest these people read the articles written by
Mr. Bazargan and Dr. Gilani
