Quote:you state that islam preaches jihad as its highest path. you base this upon your personal interpretation of islamic dogma as well the extremist interpretations. you willfully ignore the interpretations of the majority of muslims by avoidance and obfuscation.
Can you tell us how the jihadists misinterpret the following?
qur'an 4.95:
Not equalare those believers remaining [at home] - other than the disabled[] -
and the mujahideen, [who strive and fight] in the cause of Allah with their wealth and their lives. Allah has preferred the mujahideen through their wealth and their lives over those who remain [behind], by degrees. And to both Allah has promised the best [reward]. But Allah has preferred the mujahideen over those who remain [behind] with a great reward -
qur'an 3.157: And if you are
killed in the cause of Allah or die - then forgiveness from Allah and mercy are better than whatever they accumulate [in this world].
qur'an 3.158: And whether
you die or are killed, unto Allah you will be gathered.
qur'an 3.169: And never think of those who have been
killed in the cause of Allah as dead. Rather, they are alive with their Lord,receiving provision,
qur'an 4.74: Let those
fight in the cause of Allah who sell the life of this world for the other. Whoso fighteth in the cause of Allah, be he slain or be he victorious, on him We shall bestow a vast reward.
qur'an 4.76: Those who believe
fight in the cause of Allah, and those who reject Faith Fight in the cause of Evil: So fight ye against the friends of Satan: feeble indeed is the cunning of Satan.
qur'an 4.95:
Not equal are those believers who sit (at home) and receive no hurt, and those who strive and fight in the cause of Allah with their goods and their persons. Allah hath granted a grade higher to those who strive and fight with their goods and persons than to those who sit (at home). Unto all (in Faith) Hath Allah promised good: But those who strive and fight Hath He distinguished above those who sit (at home) by a special rewardqur'an 9.20: Those who believe, and have left their homes and striven with their wealth and
their lives in Allah's cause are of much greater worth in Allah's sight. These are they who are triumphant.
qur'an 9.111: Lo! Allah hath bought from the believers their lives and their wealth because the Garden will be theirs:
they shall fight in the way of Allah and shall slay and be slain. It is a promise which is binding on Him in the Torah and the Gospel and the Qur'an. Who fulfilleth His covenant better than Allah? Rejoice then in your bargain that ye have made, for that is the supreme triumph.
qur'an 61.11: Ye should believe in Allah and His messenger, and should
strive for the cause of Allah with your wealth and your lives. That is better for you, if ye did but know.
All of the above teach that killing is the duty of muslims, those who die while carrying out this islamic slaughter will definitely enter paradise. (hence the love of suicide missions for islamic terrorists)
However most importantly the islamic killers who do the actual killing are a grade higher than other muslims.
muhammad even gave himself permission to carry out mass slaughter with the following:
qur'an 8.67:
It is not for any prophet to have captives until he hath made a great slaughter in the land. Ye desire the lure of this world and Allah desireth (for you) the Hereafter, and Allah is Mighty, Wise
You claim misinterpretation as your excuse for islamic terror, can you explain how jihadists have got the above and many more such verses wrong?
