inside the quran: hatred and violence
According to Islamic Doctrine, non-Muslims are considered subordinate to Muslims. Non-Muslims are to be fought until they are either killed or forced to acknowledge their inferior status by either converting to Islam or paying a tax. If they choose to pay the tax they are then forced to accept the second place standing of their own religion. There are no human rights in Islam. No human rights or equality can exist because the Quran is laid out explicitly stating that people are not equal.
64% of the Quran is about non-Muslims and continuously makes a distinction between non-Muslims and Muslims -- pointing out the inferior status of non-Muslims.
19% of the Quran is devoted to the violent conquest and subjugation of non-Muslims.
The Quran contains well over 100 verses that call Muslims to war (jihad) with non-Muslims for the sake of Islamic rule and stresses the implementation of Islamic Law on all people. The Quran warns that Allah will send Muslims to Hell if they do not participate in the implementation of Islamic Law.
If Muslims follow the ideology laid out for them in the Quran and the teachings of Mohammad, they will be following an un-peaceful and violent system of war against non-Muslims.
The following are examples of Quran verses that teach hatred and violence -- in order as they appear in the Quran.

The following are examples of Quran verses that teach hatred and violence -- in order as they appear in the Quran.
Quran 2:62-65
And those who follow the Jewish (scriptures)
And the Christians and the Sabians* …
And well ye know those amongst you ...
We said to them “Be ye apes, despised and rejected”
*Sabians were a religious community well known in Basra, Iraq at the time of Mohammad and are also known as Christians of St. John. This verse states that Jews, Christians and Sabians are "apes, despised and rejected". Apes, not being human, means "less than human".
Quran 2:244
Fight in the cause of Allah
Quran 2:216
Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it.
But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you,
… Allah knoweth, and ye know not.
This verse is often used to incite violence, stating that violence is virtuous and that "it is good for you".
Quran 3:28
Let not the Believers (Muslims)
Take for friends, nor for helpers, unbelievers (non-Muslims).
Ye Believers: if any of ye do that,
Nothing will Allah help thee with;
Quite clearly it is stating here that Muslims should not make friends with non-Muslims.
Quran 3:56
As to those who reject faith (those who do not convert to Islam),
I will punish them with terrible agony
In this world and in the Hereafter,
Quran 3:65-71
It is the wish of the People of the Book*
To lead you astray
But they shall lead astray not you, but themselves.
Ye People of the Book!
Why do ye clothe truth with falsehoods
And conceal the Truth?
*Jews and Christians are People of the Book
Quran 3:116
Those who reject Faith (i.e. reject Islam)
Neither their possessions nor their numerous progeny
Will avail them
They will be companions of the Fire (hell)
And will dwell there forever
Quran 3:151
Soon shall we cast terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers (non-Muslims)
… their abode will be the fire
Quran 4:47
O People of the Book! (i.e. Jews and Christians)
Believe in what We have now revealed,
Confirming what was already with you before,
We change the face and fame of some of you beyond all recognition*
And turn them hindwards or curse them as we cursed the Sabbath breakers
For the decision of Allah must be carried out.
*In a Quran written in Arabic, an Arabic idiom is used here: “Before we obliterate some features or faces and turn them front to back or back to front”. The face is an expression of a man’s real essence and his reputation and distinction. According to the Quran, the People of the Book had at one time been favored by God with revelations from their prophets. But if they prove themselves unworthy, by not following the last prophet--Mohammad--they will “lose face” and will no longer be reputable (they must convert to Islam and accept that Mohammad is the last Prophet). If they don’t convert and accept Mohammad as the last prophet, they will be degraded and Muslims will take their place. “The first shall be the last and the last shall be the first”. It doesn't translate well into other languages, but the meaning is clear. Muslims are the true believers and one day all people on earth will be Muslims.
Quran 4:51-56
Hast thou not turned thy vision to those
Who were given a portion of the Book?
They believe in Sorcery and Evil …
They are men whom Allah hath cursed
And those who Allah hath cursed, thou wilt find have no one to help …
Those who reject our signs we shall soon cast you into the Fire
As often as their skins are roasted through
We shall change them for fresh skins.
That they may taste the penalty,
For Allah is exalted in Power and Wise
Again, non-Muslims are seen as bad people--they believe in Sorcery and Evil, and Allah has cursed them. Allah is very vengeful, he will set them on fire until their skins are burnt through.
Quran 4:144
O ye who believe! Do not take for friends unbelievers …
Do ye wish to offer Allah an open proof against yourselves?
Yet another verse instructing Muslims not to take non-Muslims as friends.
I jump to Quran 5:60-63 to make a point:
O ye who believe! (Muslims)
Take not for friends* those who take your religion
For a mockery (i.e. who don’t take it seriously or think Islam is not the one and only true religion)
Whether among those who received the scripture before you (Jews and Christians)
Or among those who reject Faith (reject Islam).
Shall I point out to you something much worse than this,
By the treatment it received from Allah?
Those who incurred the curse of Allah and his wrath*
Those of whom some he transformed into apes and swine
*Regarding the “curse of Allah”, most Imams and Islamic scholars will say that it is in the Bible that Jews received the curse of God (Deuteronomy 27-28) and that Jews provoked God’s wrath (Matthew 3:1-7). Who forsook God and worshiped evil? This is yet another lesson to Muslims that Jews and Christians are bad and evil.
To understand fully about Jews being apes and swine we go to a previous verse, Quran 2:63-65, which states that:
Remember we took your covenant and we raised above you
Saying: “Hold firmly to what We have given you and bring to remembrance what is therein";
But ye turned back thereafter had it not been for the grace of Allah you had surely been lost
And still you know those amongst you who transgressed
We said to them: “Be ye apes, despised and rejected”.
So we have verses 5:60 and 2:63-65 in which Muslims believe Jews were cursed and turned into apes. Even Mohammad Morsi, (member of the Muslim Brotherhood and president of Egypt for one year) called Jews pigs and apes in several of his speeches. Al-Qaeda leaders use the phrase, too. Pigs are particularly hated in Islam and considered filthy and dirty and the lowest of all animals. They are inhuman and deserve to be treated as such.
Quran 4:74
Let those who fight in the cause of Allah
Who sell the life of this world for the Hereafter,
To him who fight in the cause of Allah,
Whether he is slain or whether he gets victory
Soon shall we give him a reward of great value.
Those who die for Allah and the implementation of Islam and Islamic Law are the opposite of Christians (who were led meekly to the slaughter). Muslims attempt to inflict death and destruction for Allah. Extremists use this verse as the basis for suicide bombings.
Quran 4:76
Those who believe will fight in the cause of Allah…"
Quran 4:89
They but wish that ye should reject Faith (Islam),
As they do, and thus be on the same footing as they:
But take not friends from those until they flee in the way of Allah
But if they turn renegades, seize them and slay them wherever ye find them;
and take no friends or helpers from them.
Once again, Muslims are told not to take non-Muslims as friends.
Quran 4:95
Not equal are those believers who sit (at home) and receive no injury (who do not fight for Islam),
But to those who strive and fight in the cause of Allah with their goods and their persons
In this verse, we see that Allah hath granted a grade higher to those who strive and fight with their goods and persons (body) than to those who sit (who do not fight). Those who strive and fight has He distinguished above those who sit (do not fight) by a special reward. This passage is clearly stating that those who remain "peaceful" and who do not join in the fight for Islam are less worthy of reward from Allah. It also destroys the myth that "Jihad" is a “spiritual” struggle or that “fight” doesn't mean holy war. Not only is the Arabic word used in this passage for fight as in war, but it is very obviously not referring to anything spiritual.
Quran 4:101
… the unbelievers are your open enemies …
This is quite clear: unbelievers, or non-Muslims, whether Christian, Jew or other, are your enemies.
Quran 5:32
Allah told the people of Israel if you kill one Muslim, unless for corruption of the land,
It is as if you killed the entire Muslim community.
If you save one Muslim life, the whole Muslim community is saved.
Our messengers came to the Israelites with clear messages and signs of Allah’s supremacy,
But many Israelites continued to commit mischief and corruption on the land.
The punishment for those who wage war against Allah or Mohammad,
or who strive for mischief or corruption,
is Beheading, or Crucifixion, or the cutting off the right hand and the left foot.
Here, Jews are being warned that if they kill a Muslim, it is a crime of such magnitude that it is the same as if they killed the entire Muslim community (or a village). A Jew is not allowed to kill a Muslim -- it is a crime of great magnitude.
According to Islamic Doctrine, “mischief” or “corruption” of the land is when someone disobeys the laws of Islam.
The only time a Muslim can be "lawfully" killed is when it is according to Islamic Law, such as for apostasy, or when a Muslim kills another Muslim (an eye for an eye). A non-Muslim is not allowed to kill a Muslim under any circumstances. But if a Muslim kills a Jew or a Christian (or any non-Muslim), it is not considered unlawful, so there is no punishment.
This verse clearly defines the punishment for when a Jew, or any non-Muslim, violates Islam. When a non-Muslim commits “corruption on the land” the punishment is crucifixion, beheading or cutting off a hand and a foot. But "corruption" is a very broad term in Islamic Doctrine.
Corruption on the land, sometimes translated as "mischief on earth" or "mischief on the land", consists of an enormous category of offenses including: criticizing or questioning Islam; calling for a change in Islamic traditions; prejudice against Muslims; jokes about Islam or Mohammad (jokes are altogether banned in strict Muslim countries—whether about Mohammad or not); an attempt to undermine the goals of Islam; or, an attempt to undermine the interests of Muslims.
It is interesting to note here that currently in Christian villages in Africa, extremists have been using this verse to enter a Christian village and “cut off hands and feet from “opposite sides” of the men. This is the verse used to condone this atrocity. And we see clearly that by this time, when reading the Quran chapter by chapter, Muslims have a clear dislike of non-Muslims, even taught to not take them as friends, but this verse is telling Muslims to execute or crucify them. In Syria, the rebels crucify Christians almost daily. This is happening elsewhere, too, wherever radicals can find Christians. This is happening in Syria, Iraq, Egypt, Iran, etc.
Quran 5:51
O ye who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians for friends.
They are friends one to another. He among you who taketh them for friends is one of them.
This is saying that anyone who takes a non-Muslim as a friend could be accused of being an unbeliever as well. And in 5:17 Christians are included in the ranks of "unbelievers": They indeed have disbelieved who say: Lo! Christ is the Messiah, son of Mary.
Quran 5:80-81
O People of the Book!
Exceed not in your religion the bounds of what is proper;
Trespassing beyond the truth, nor follow the vain desire
Of people who went wrong in times gone by—who misled many
and strayed themselves from the right way.
Curses were pronounced on those among the children of Israel who rejected faith
by the tongue of David and of Jesus, the son of Mary
because they disobeyed and persisted in excesses
… evil indeed were the deeds which they did …
This verse is used to make Muslims feel that the People of the Book, both Christian and Jews, are less than Muslims because they did not follow the right path--and that Muslims are placed above them in superiority because they follow the true and right path. The statement that People of the Book have been cursed by Allah is also very important because it is used to emphasize that Jews and Christians are evil—and they have been cursed by Allah.
Quran 5:83
Thou see many of them turning in friendship to the unbelievers (non-Muslims)
Evil indeed are the works which their soul has sent forward before them
With the result that Allah’s wrath is on them
And in torment will they abide.
Again we see that a Muslim should not make friends with non-Muslims or they will have Allah’s wrath upon them.
Quran 5:84
If only they had believed in Allah, and in the Prophet (Mohammad)
And in what hath been revealed to him
Never would they have taken them for friends and protectors
But most of them are rebellious wrong doers.
This verse clearly states that those who don’t follow the revelations of Mohammad (the Quran) or who take friendship of non-Muslims are “rebellious wrong doers”.
Quran 7:165-167
We visited the wrong doers with a grievous punishment because they were given to transgression
When in their insolence they transgressed all prohibitions
We said to them: Be ye apes, despised and rejected ...
Behold! The Lord did declare that He would be against them on the Day of Judgment
They will be afflicted with grievous penalty.
Allah is quick in retribution.
There are several verses in the Quran that call non-Muslims apes or pigs, this is one of them. And again Allah says non-Muslims will not do well on the Day of Judgment and they will be penalized.
Quran 8:12
I will cast terror into the hearts of the unbelievers (non-Muslims).
Strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them.
The meaning is clear here. Non-Muslims will be terrorized and will have their heads and every fingertip cut off.
Quran 8:15-16
O ye who believe!
When ye meet the unbelievers in battle,
Never turn your backs to them.
If any do turn his back to them on such a day,
Unless it be in a strategy of war,
Or to retreat to a troop (of his own)
He draws upon himself the wrath of Allah
And his abode is Hell -- an evil refuge indeed.
This is saying that when “in battle” and face the non-Muslims, you must not turn or run away from them--you must fight them--unless it’s a strategy of some sort, such as regrouping to attack. In other words, you must fight them.
Quran 8:39
And fight with them until there is no more fitna (unbelief in Allah)
And there prevail justice and faith in Allah altogether and everywhere.
The important part of this is that Muslims must fight until there are none left who are unbelievers (non-Muslims). Only those left are those who are the believers (Muslims) … everywhere (throughout the world).
Quran 8:57
If ye gain mastery over them in war
Deal with those who follow them,
So as to strike fear in those who are behind them,
And that they will remember.
Today, when we hear of the atrocities committed by Muslims on Christian villagers, we see videos of the carnage left behind: beheadings, hands or feet cut off, torture, to name just a few things done to non-Muslims. This is a strategy in war as per the Quran.
In 8:12 we saw that Allah wants Muslims to terrorize non-Muslims by cutting off heads and fingers. In this verse it continues the theme of terrorizing non-Muslims so that afterwards “they will remember”. Non-Muslims will remember the carnage and be fearful. Here we clearly see that the Quran is not “peaceful”. It is filled with war strategy and commands Muslims to commit atrocities. This verse is often used to promote jihad to gain mastery over non-Muslims and the west.
Today, with cell phones that take videos, Islamists commit atrocities and film it and place the videos on the internet to instill terror. And it works. Christians in countries with a Moslem majority are very, very afraid. They know exactly what is done to other Christians.
Quran 8:59-60
And let not the unbelievers think that they can get the better of Allah's Purpose.
Lo! They cannot escape.
Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power,
Including armed steeds of war to strike terror into the hearts of the enemies of Allah,
And your enemies and others besides whom ye may not know.
Quran 8:65
O Prophet, Rouse the believers to fight
If there are twenty amongst you
Conquer two hundred;
If a hundred amongst you,
Conquer a thousand of the unbelievers
For these are a people without understanding of Allah.
Many Muslim commentators say that odds of ten to one may sound appalling but this number does not daunt Moslem men of faith. It does not matter whether they die in these battles because their cause prevails. But they are sure to win because they have divine aid and have taken up arms in righteousness.
Quran 9:5
When the sacred months are over,
Fight and slay the infidels (non-Muslims) wherever you find them.
Capture, besiege and ambush them.
In every strategy of war
Here we clearly see that non-Muslims are to be “slayed wherever you find them”.
Quran 9:14-17
Punish infidels with your hands (kill, hurt)
Cover them with shame (rape, sodomize)
To do so will help you achieve victory over them
In fire shall they dwell
In 9:5 we saw a verse that says 'when the sacred months are over, slay the infidels'. Both 9:5 and 9:14-17 were used in the atrocities the Muslim Brotherhood carried out in July and August 2013 (as well as many times in the past). During that July, the Muslim Brotherhood posted videos on Facebook and YouTube and were even on TV telling their followers to kill Christians and set them on fire (in fire shall they dwell). The Moslem Brotherhood did just that. Christian homes and shops were burned to the ground, many Christians were injured and some were killed. 80 churches were torched, over 40 burned to the ground and were un-repairable--some were historical monuments. The atrocities conducted by the Muslim Brotherhood is just one example, these same tactics are done by most all Islamists who attack Christians and Jews.
Quran 9:20
Those who believe and suffer exile and strive with might and main in Allah’s cause
with their goods and their persons
Have the highest rank in the eyes of Allah.
They are the people who will be triumphant.
This verse is very clear: those who fight for Allah have the highest rank in the eyes of Allah and they are the ones who will be triumphant. This verse encourages Moslems to fight, even if they suffer.
Quran 9:29
Fight those who do not believe in Allah, nor the Last Day,
Nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Prophet,
Nor acknowledge the religion of Truth (Islam), even if they are of the People of the Book,
Until they pay the Jizya in acknowledgement of superiority and that they are in a state of subjection.
Jizya is a tax placed on non-Muslims. Christians and Jews in countries where Islamic Law is in place must pay a tax until they convert to Islam. In some places the tax is made so high that people cannot afford it. They are then told they must convert or be killed. Today, currently, in villages that have been attacked by Rebels in Syria and in villages in various countries in Africa where Islamists have attacked Christian villages, the Christians that are left alive must pay a tax. And again, if they can’t, they are given the choice: convert or be killed. Some of these killings, of people who would not convert, are filmed and shown on YouTube to further terrorize Christians in the region.
This verse was one of the final "revelations" made to Mohammad and was the start of his military expansion and in which his followers continued until two-thirds of the Christian world was conquered in approximately 100 years. Islam is a political and war strategy intended to dominate all other people and faiths.
Quran 9:30-31
The Jews call Uzair a son of God and the Christians call Christ the Son of God.
That is a saying from their mouth.
Allah’s curse be on them: How they are deluded away from the Truth (Islam).
They take their priests and their anchorites to be
Their lords in derogation of Allah
And they take as their Lord Christ the son of Mary
Yet they were commanded to worship but One God
There is no God but He
Praise and glory to Him
Far is He from having the partners they associate with Him
This verse is used to create hostility and hatred towards Jews and Christians.
Quran 9:36
Surely the number of months with Allah is twelve months
Since the day when He created the heavens and the earth,
Of these four being sacred; that is the right reckoning;
Therefore be not unjust to yourselves regarding the sacred,
and fight the unbelievers all together as they fight you
Once again, Muslims are instructed to kill non-Muslims.
Quran 9:38-39
O ye who believe! What is the matter with you
That when ye are asked to go forth in the cause of Allah,
Ye cling heavily to the earth?
Do ye prefer the life of this world to the Hereafter?
But little is the comfort of this life, as compared with the Hereafter.
Unless ye go forth to fight, He will punish you with a grievous penalty.
This verse is used as a warning to those who do not want to fight non-believers. It is used to threaten them that they will be punished with Hell if they do not “go forth” and fight in the name of Allah.
Quran 9:73
O Prophet! Strive hard against the unbelievers and the hypocrites (those who do not join in the fighting for Islam)
And be firmly against them; their abode is hell, and evil is their destination.
This verse is used to dehumanize non-Muslims by making them “evil” and doomed to hell. Throughout the Quran the idea that non-Muslims are meant for hell—that there is no alternative than hell for non-Muslims reinforces the idea that non-Muslims must be eliminated—that they are “evil” and should be terminated so as not to further the evil in this world. In this way it is easy to justify killing them. By citing these verses, today's Muslims are taught to have no regard for those outside the faith. Also, the term hypocrites is used throughout the Quran. This term is used to make those who do not “fight” for Islam almost as bad and as the evil as the non-Muslims.
Quran 9:88-89
But the Prophet and those who believe in him,
Strive and fight with their wealth and their persons.
… those who fight …
Allah hath prepared for them
Gardens under which rivers flow, to dwell therein…
Those who fight and kill non-Muslims are promised Paradise when they die. This is another major theme throughout the Quran. Muslims are taught that if they die in the process of killing non-Moslems, they are promised Paradise. Most people fear death and what comes after. This solves the problem of fearing the after-life and makes extremists have no fear of death when they die during their endeavors against non-Muslims. They feel extremely self-righteous because they are quite sure they will go to Paradise for killing non-Muslims.
Quran 9:111
Allah hath purchased of the Believers
Their persons and their goods
For theirs in return is the Garden of Paradise
They fight in His cause and slay and are slain
A promise binding on Him in truth through the Law
Who is more faithful to his promise than Allah?
So rejoice in the bargain which ye have concluded.
This is the achievement supreme.
Here the Quran defines a true believer by the fact that they whole-heartedly (in person and in goods) fight and kill non-Muslims in return for Allah’s promise that those who fight and kill are achieving their most true purpose on earth (“achievement supreme”) and will go to the “Garden of Paradise”.
Quran 9:123
O ye who believe!
Fight the Unbelievers who are around you
And let them find harshness in you
And know that Allah is with those who keep their duty.
In commentaries and teachings by Islamic scholars, this verse is taught with the idea that fighting is inevitable and that when an Imam says to fight or kill, then you must obey. Many verses are used in this way. Ali (1968) in his commentary on this verse is an example: “Where a call is made by the Imam to fight it should be obeyed.”
Quran 17:16
When we decide to destroy a population,
We first send a definite order to those among them
Who are given the good things of this life …
And yet transgress so that the word is proved true against them.
Then it is. We destroy them utterly.
First, note that this verse clearly states: “When we decide to destroy a population.” Destroying a population refers to Jewish or Christian communities in which the idea here is to either kill or convert them. Ali (1968) is often referred to when interpreting this verse. Ali says “Those who are highly gifted from God, it may be with wealth or position, or it may be with talents and opportunities, are expected to understand and obey.”
Many Muslims take this to further mean that if you have wealth or position, you should further the Islamic cause with your money or position. For example, the Muslim Brotherhood will use their powerful funding organizations to further Islam by using their money to place well-trained young Muslims into universities where they can promote Islam’s goals. This is only one example of what one can do with money—arms are also bought with wealth.
Other Islamic scholars have interpreted this verse as:
When We wish to destroy a town,
We send Our commandment to the people of it (instructions to convert),
But if they transgress therein (if they won’t convert to Islam), the word of Allah is that We destroy it with utter destruction.
The punishment for not converting is utter destruction of the town; this means massacre the entire town.
Quran 18:65-84
There are 104 lines in the story within verses 18:65-81. To summarize, it tells a story of a boy who was about to bring dishonor to his parents. He was killed for this. This story in these verses in the Quran is how honor killings are rationalized. If a family member dishonors your family, this verse tells you that it is best to kill that person. Your family honor is everything. Ridding your family of this disgrace will put you back in favor with the community.
There are many commentators who have various slight interpretation differences, but all agree that Allah wanted the boy killed because the boy would have brought dishonor to the parents. Today we see “honor” killings primarily done to females. But this verse allows family members to kill other family members who might bring dishonor to the family.
Another verse in the Quran that is used for honor killing is 4:34-35. It states that men are in charge of women and are their protectors and maintainers. Because of this the Muslim community believes that it is the duty of men to control their wives and daughters since men are the “maintainers” (provide for them). In order to keep the honor of the family, it is believed via Islam and cultural tradition, that if the strain of controlling a woman becomes so great (i.e. the wife is constantly disobedient and brings shame, or if a daughter is behaving too ‘free’ in an immigrant society residing in the west), all agree that murder is the only answer.
Quran 22:19-21
(This verse talks about those who are fit for punishment or those who defy Allah’s will--those who do not follow Islam):
Those who deny their Lord,
For them will be cut out a garment of fire; and
Over their heads will be poured boiling water.
With it will be scaled what is within their bodies,
As well as their skins.
In addition there will be
Maces of iron to punish them.
This verse is often used as examples of how to punish non-Muslims.
Quran 25:52
Therefore listen not to the Unbelievers,
But strive against them with the utmost strenuousness.
“Strive against” is usually interpreted as jihad.
Quran 33:60-62
If the hypocrites, and those in whose hearts is a disease, and the alarmists in the city do not cease,
We verily shall urge thee on against them, then they will be your neighbors in it but a little while.
Cursed, they will be seized wherever found and slain with a fierce slaughter.
This passage sanctions the slaughter (most often a killing that is "merciless" or a "horrible murder" in other translations) against three groups: Hypocrites (Muslims who refuse to "fight in the name of Allah" [see below*] and hence are not behaving as Muslims should); those with "diseased hearts" (Jews and Christians [see below**]); and, "alarmists" or "agitators who include those who merely speak out against Islam. It is worth noting that the victims are to be sought out by Muslims, which is what today's terrorists do.
* 3:167 And the hypocrites, they were told: Come, fight in the way of Allah, Or at least drive the foe from the city.
** 5:52 And if they turn away, be assured that for some of their crimes it is Allah’s purpose to punish them.
Quran 40:69-72
Seest thou not those that dispute concerning the signs of Allah
How they are turned away from reality? (reality being Islam)
Those who reject the book (Quran) and the revelations (of Mohammad)
But soon they shall know when the yokes shall be around their necks
And the chains they shall be dragged along in the boiling fetid fluid
Then in the Fire shall they be burned.
These verses are often used to teach Muslims that Christians and Jews are non-believers and that they are bad people. The lines about “yokes around their necks” and “chains that they shall be dragged”, we see done currently today as well as the past. Imams cite these verses in the mosque and Muslims leave the mosque filled with hatred and attack Christians and either hang them or many times (it is shown on YouTube quite often) Muslims are seen dragging Christians who are bound at the feet by ropes and dragged behind motorcycles or cars until they have pavement burns or are tortured to death by mobs on the streets clubbing them as they are dragged along.
Quran 47:3-4
Those who reject Allah follow vanities,
While those who believe follow the truth from their lord.
Thus does Allah set forth from men their lessons by similitude.
Therefore when you meet and fight the unbelievers (non-Muslims) in battle,
Smite at their necks until you have overcome them
Those who reject Allah (Islam) are to be subdued in battle. The verse goes on to say the only reason Allah doesn't do the dirty work himself is because Allah is testing the faithfulness of Muslims—they must fight and kill in order to show their faith. Those who kill pass the test.
Quran 47:35
Be not weary and faint-hearted, or cry for peace,
When ye should be uppermost (have the upper hand) for Allah is with you (when you fight for Allah).
Quran 48:17
There is no blame for the blind, nor is there blame for the lame, nor is there blame for the sick, that they go not forth to war.
And who so obeyeth Allah and His messenger, He will make him enter Gardens underneath which rivers flow;
And for those who turn back (from war), Allah will punish with a painful doom.
This verse says that those who do not fight in jihad will suffer a painful punishment.
Quran 48:29
Mohammad is the messenger of Allah.
And those who are with him are ruthless against the disbelievers (non-Muslims)
But compassionate amongst each other (fellow Muslims).
This verse is often used to point out that people are not equal; that Muslims are superior to all others, and therefore others should never be treated equally. The word used for ruthless in this verse shares the same root as a word translated as 'painful’ in a previous verse.
Buddhists in Thailand, Jews in Israel, Christians in Indonesia, Hindus in India: Why is Islam at war with every major world religion when none of these religions are at war with each other or with Islam? Part of the reason is that the Quran is specific about the inferiority of other faiths:
Quran 48:28
It is He who has sent his apostle Mohammad with guidance
And [brings] the Religion of truth to proclaim it over all religions...
Thou will see them (members of other religions) bow and prostrate themselves.
Quran 58:14-17
Avoid those who turn to you in friendship (Christians or Jews who try to befriend you)
To do such will have the wrath of Allah.
They are neither of you nor of them and they swear to falsehood knowingly.
They will be the companions of the Fire, to dwell therein.
The Quran says that no true Muslim would ever love anyone who resists Islam--who doesn't submit, even if it is a family member:
Quran 58:22
Thou will not find any people who believe in Allah loving those who resist Allah and His Messenger,
Even though they were their fathers or their sons, or their brothers, or their kindred.
Quran 61:4
Surely Allah loves those who fight in His way …
61:9 … He it is who has sent His Messenger (Mohammed) with guidance and the religion of truth (Islam)
to make it victorious over all religions even though the infidels (non-Muslims) may resist.
The full verse explicitly refers to physical conflict. Infidels who resist Islamic rule are to be fought "His" way--with physical conflict=harm/jihad.
Quran 61:10-12
O You who believe!
Shall I guide you to a commerce that will save you from a painful torment?
That you believe in Allah and His Messenger (Mohammad )
and that you strive hard (jihad) in the Cause of Allah with your wealth and your lives,
that will be better for you, if you but know!
(If you do so) Allah will forgive you your sins, and admit you into Gardens under which rivers flow,
and pleasant dwellings in Gardens of 'Adn - Eternity ['Adn = Eden = Paradise],
That is indeed the great success.
The Arabic root for jihad is used here but translates into "strive hard".
Quran 66:9
O Prophet! Strive against the disbelievers and the hypocrites.
Hell will be their home, a hapless journey's end.
Again the Arabic root word for "Jihad" is used here, but translates as “strive against”. The context is holy war and those who are being jihad against is broadened to include "hypocrites". A hypocrite is the word used for Muslims who do not join the fight for Islam.
In 83:34 the Quran tells Muslims that they will spend eternity laughing at unbelievers and mocking their suffering as they are tortured in Hell:
And the dwellers of the garden [paradise] will call out to the inmates of the fire [hell]:
Surely we have found what our Lord promised us to be true;
Have you too found what your Lord promised to be true?
They will say: Yes.
Quran 98:6
Those who reject Truth (non-Muslims)
Will be in hell fire to dwell therein
For they are the worst of creatures.
This verse is used in some Hadith and Sunna to teach hate towards and to not befriend Christians and Jews.
Hadith Bukhari 8:427 states that one of the last things Mohammad ever said on his deathbed was:
"May Allah curse the Jews and Christians.”
Verses in the Quran that say Muslims should not take Jews or Christians for friends:
Quran 5:51 O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them
Quran 5:80 You will see many of them befriending those who disbelieve; certainly evil is that which their souls have sent before for them, that Allah became displeased with them and in chastisement shall they abide."
Muslims who befriend unbelievers will be chastised.
Quran 3:28
Let not the believers take for friends or helpers unbelievers rather than believers:
If any do that, in nothing will there be help from Allah:
except by way of precaution, that ye may Guard yourselves from them…"
The last part is usually said to mean that the Muslim is allowed to feign friendship if it is of benefit. Renowned scholar Ibn Kathir states that "believers are allowed to show friendship outwardly, but never inwardly."
Quran 3:118
O you who believe! do not take for intimate friends from among others than your own people, they do not fall short of inflicting loss upon you; they love what distresses you; vehement hatred has already appeared from out of their mouths, and what their breasts conceal is greater still; indeed, We have made the communications clear to you, if you will understand."
This verse not only warns Muslims not to take non-Muslims as friends, but it establishes the belief and fear that non-Muslims are evil out to get them.
Quran 9:23
O ye who believe! Choose not your fathers nor your brethren for friends if they take pleasure in disbelief rather than faith. Who so of you taketh them for friends, such are wrong-doers"
Even family members are not to be taken as friends if they do not accept Islam. This is the mildest interpretation of this verse from the 9th Sura, which also advocates "slaying the unbeliever wherever ye find them".
Quran 53:29
Therefore shun those who turn away from Our Message and desire nothing but the life of this world."
Quran 3:85
And whoever desires a religion other than Islam, it shall not be accepted from him, and in the hereafter he shall be one of the losers."
Quran 3:10
(As for) those who disbelieve, surely neither their wealth nor their children shall avail them against Allah, and they it is who are the fuel of the fire."
Those who do not believe in in Islam's message are but fuel for the fire of Hell (also 66:6, 2:24. 21:98).
Quran 7:44
The Companions of the Garden will call out to the Companions of the Fire:
"We have indeed found the promises of Allah is true: Have you also found Your Lord's promises true?"
They shall say, "Yes"; but a crier shall proclaim between them: "The curse of Allah is on the wrong-doers"
Muslims in heaven will amuse themselves by looking down on non-Muslims in Hell and mocking them while they are being tortured (see 22:19-22)
Quran 1:5-7
Show us the straight path, The path of those whom Thou hast favored;
Not the (path) of those who earn Thine anger nor of those who go astray"
This is a prayer that Muslims are supposed to repeat each day. "Those who earn Thine anger" specifically refers to Jews and "those who go astray" refers to Christians (see Hadith Bukhari 12:749)

Although Islam does teach loyalty to fellow Muslims, Islam does not teach love or kindness towards anyone else. In the Quran Muslims are valued above all else and there is no empathy for non-Muslims. During Mohammad’s lifetime and during the “revelations” made to Mohammad, supposedly from God, Mohammad and his followers continuously attacked or rounded up non-Muslims and executed them. Basically, the Quran is a journal of Mohammad’s battle against non-Muslims with the goal to subjugate all non-Muslims with the end result of converting those left to Islam so that in the end, all people on earth are under Islamic rule. This is the end goal of Islam: to conquer and implement Islamic Rule on all societies.
The Quran makes it clear that Islam is not about universal brotherhood, but only about the brotherhood of Muslims (believers are Muslims; unbelievers are non-Muslims):
Quran 49:10 The Believers are but a single Brotherhood
Quran 16:75-76 Slaves and the handicapped are not equal to healthy free men.
According to Islamic Law, non-Muslims may be owned as property by Muslims, but, in keeping with Islam's supremacist message, a fellow Moslem should never be a slave. Christians and Jews are not considered fully equal in that the penalty for killing one of them is limited to one-third of the compensation due for killing a Moslem.
Quran 2:178 The Quran introduces the “Law of Equality” which establishes different levels of human value when considering certain matters, such as restitution for murder. Because of this inequality a Muslim who kills a non-Moslem can often go without punishment, but a non-Muslim who kills a Moslem gets the most horrific sentence.
Quran 3:110 The Quran tells Muslims they are the favored race, while those of other religions are “perverted transgressors”: Ye are the best of peoples, evolved for mankind … If only the People of the Book [Christians and Jews] had faith … most of them are perverted transgressors.
Quran 48:29 Mohammad is the messenger of Allah. And those with him are hard (ruthless) against the disbelievers and merciful among themselves
Quran 9:30 … the Jews say Ezra is the son of God and the Christians say Christ is the son of God ... Allah (Himself) fights against them. How perverse are they!
Quran 56:12-40 As we’ve already seen, Allah condemns non-Muslims to Hell based merely on their unbelief--not being Moslem, while in these verses we see that Muslims are rewarded with the finest earthly comforts in the hereafter, including never-ending food, wine and sex.
Quran 1:6-7 As we have also seen, much of the Quran is devoted to differentiating Muslims from non-Muslims and attacking the non-Muslims (or unbelievers). The first sura of the Quran (1:6-7) is an example of this. It is in the prayer that is repeated by Muslims each day and ends with these words: Keep us on the right path. The path of those upon whom Thou hast bestowed favors. Not the path of those whom Thy wrath is brought down upon.
Mohammad was once asked if these words pertained to Jews and Christians. Mohammad’s response was, "Whom else?" (Hadith: Bukhari 56:662). What this means is that five times a day a Moslem says a prayer that distinguishes him from a Jew or Christian and verifies to him that they have God’s wrath and therefore are evil-doers (as mentioned in various verses or the Quran).
Quran 48:29 Since Allah makes such a strong distinction between Muslims and non-Muslims, it is only natural that Muslims use different standards of treatment towards others in their daily lives. The Quran tells Muslims to be compassionate with other Muslims but ruthless to the non-Muslim (disbelievers): Muhammad is the messenger of Allah. And those with him are hard against the disbelievers and merciful among themselves …
Allah intends for Muslims to triumph over unbelievers:
Quran 4:141 And never will Allah grant to the unbelievers a way to triumph over believers [“any way of success”]
To Muslims, the only acceptable position of non-Muslims is subjugation under Islamic rule:
Quran 9:29 Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, even if they are of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.
Jizya is the tax money that non-Muslims must pay to their Muslim rulers in an Islamic state. A common criticism of Muslims is that they are often arrogant toward others. This is why:
The Quran Dehumanizes Non-Muslims and Says that They are Vile Animals
The Ayatollah Khomeini said that non-Muslims rank somewhere between "feces" and the "sweat of a camel that has consumed impure food." This is because the Quran dehumanizes non-Muslims and describes them as “animals” and beasts:
Quran 98:6 Those who reject Truth (Islam) among the People of the Book … They are the worst of creatures.
Quran 8:55 Surely the vilest of animals in Allah's sight are those who disbelieve (the unbelievers=non-Muslims)
Quran 7:176 compares unbelievers to "panting dogs" with regard to their idiocy and worthlessness.
Quran 7:179 says non-Muslims are like "cattle" (and worse).
Many are the Jinns (evil spirits) and are men we have made for Hell;
They have hearts wherewith they understand not; eyes wherewith they see not;
They are like cattle—nay, they are more misguided;
Quran 5:63 says that Allah transformed Jews of the past into apes and pigs
Shall I point out to you something much worse,
By the treatment they received from Allah?
Those who incurred the curse of Allah and His wrath,
Those of whom He transformed into apes and swine …
(This is repeated in verses 2:65 and 7:166)
Quran 2:65
Those amongst you who transgressed in the matter of the Sabbath;
We said to them “Be ye apes, despised and rejected”.
Quran 7:166
When in their insolence they transgressed all prohibition
We said to them “Be ye apes, despised and rejected”
Hadith Bukhari 54:524 says that Mohammad believed rats to be "mutated Jews". This is confirmed by Hadith Sahih Muslim 7135 and 7136
Quran 8:55 Surely the vilest of animals in Allah's sight are those who disbelieve
The Quran Says that Allah does NOT Love Unbelievers
Christianity teaches that God loves all people, but hates sin. The Quran never says anything remotely like this and instead it explicitly declares that Allah does not love Non-Muslims (or unbelievers):
Quran 30:45 Allah does not love the unbelievers
Quran 3:32 Allah loveth not those who reject the Faith (Islam)
Quran 22:38 Allah loveth not any that is a traitor to the faith
Quran 11:118-199 says that Allah does not bestow mercy on everyone. He chooses not to guide some people (people are unequal).
For those whom Allah does not love, there will be the most terrible of torments, including eternal burning:
Quran 4:56 Those who reject our Signs, We shall soon cast into the Fire: as often as their skins are roasted through, We shall change them for fresh skins, that they may taste the penalty: for Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise.
Quran 2:98 Allah is the enemy of the unbelievers.
Non-Muslims are Destined for Eternal Torture in Hell
There are over 400 verses that describe the torment that he has prepared for non-Muslims:
Quran 3:85
And whoever desires a religion other than Islam, it shall not be accepted from him, and in the hereafter he shall be one of the losers.
Quran 3:10
Those who reject Islam;
Neither their possessions nor their progeny will avail them.
They are themselves but fuel for the Fire (according to Shakir, they are the “firewood of hell”)
In Christianity, punishment in the hereafter is directly tied to sin and wickedness. Little is said about Hell, but the emphasis is on personal suffering for selfish or cruel deeds. In Islam, Hell is a punishment for merely not believing in Islam--for not being Muslim. In contrast to the Bible, every 12th verse of the Quran speaks of Hell and vividly describes Allah’s wrath on unbelievers (non-Muslims):
Quran 22:19-22
As for those who disbelieve, garments of fire will be cut out for them;
Boiling fluid will be poured down on their heads,
What is within their bellies, as well as their skin, will be scalded;
And for them are iron rods to punish them
Every time they wish to get away from the anguish
They will be force back therein
And it will be said: “Taste the penalty of Burning”
Allah Prevents Non-Muslims from Understanding:
Allah never gives the people he hates an opportunity to avoid his wrath. The Quran says that Allah deliberately puts obstacles in the way of unbelievers to keep them from accepting the truth. Then, for not accepting the Truth he punishes them.
If Allah wished, he could provide guidance to every soul:
Quran 32:13
If We had so willed, We could certainly have brought every soul its true guidance.
But, instead Allah sets a veil over the hearts and coverings over their ears:
Quran 18:57 Verily We have set veils over their hearts lest they should understand this, and over their ears, deafness, if thou callest them to guidance, even then will they never accept guidance.
Quran 17:46
We put coverings over their hearts and minds so they should not understand the Quran;
And deafness into their ears when thou dost commemorate they Lord and Him alone—in the Quran.
They turn their backs fleeing from the Truth.
Allah even uses barriers to prevent unbelievers from believing:
Quran 36:7-10
The word is proved true against the greater part of them;
For they do not believe.
We have put yokes round their necks right up to their chins
So that their heads are forced up and they cannot see.
And we have put a bar in front of them and a bar behind them,
And further, we have covered them up so that they cannot see.
And whether you warn them or warn them not: they do not believe.
For the same purpose, Allah also fills the hearts of unbelievers with doubt:
Quran 10:100
No soul can believe except by the Will of Allah
And He will place doubt on those who will not understand …
Quran 4:88 (regarding the hypocrites—those who turn their back on jihad)
About the hypocrites?
Allah hath upset them for their evil deeds.
Would ye guide those whom Allah hath thrown out of the Way?
For those who Allah hath thrown out of the Way never shalt thou find the Way.
Allah Causes Non-Muslims to Sin on purpose:
Not only does Allah prevent non-Muslims from knowing the Truth (which is enough to condemn them to Hell) the Quran says that a hateful Allah also causes unbelievers to commit the very sin that he will later punish them for:
Quran 16:93
If Allah so willed it, He would certainly make you a single nation,
But He leaves straying who He pleases and He guides whom he pleases,
but ye will certainly be called to account for all your actions
It is Allah who causes non-Muslems to err.
Quran 4:143 and 74:31
… Whom Allah causes to err—never will find a way for him.
Quran 74:31
And we have set none but angels as guardians of the Fire
And we have fixed their numbers …
Only as a trial for Unbelievers in order that the People of the Book may arrive
... and that those in whose hearts is a disease and the Unbelievers may say:
What symbol doth Allah intend by this?
Thus Allah leaves those to stray whom He pleases and He guides whom He pleases
Allah intentionally sends the people that he hates astray:
Quran 45:23
…and Allah sendeth him astray purposely, and seals up his hearing and his heart …
Allah sends demons to inspire non-Muslims to commit further bad deeds (that he can later hold against them).
According to verse 3:54 Allah plots and schemes against non-Muslims using deceit (the Arabic word makara is used which means deceit). Translators use the English word planners but it is literally interpreted as Allah is the best of deceivers (or lying). Either way, Allah is a plotter and schemer against non-Muslims. It depends on the translator or interpreter. Some say Allah is the best at deceiving. Here’s the verse:
Quran 3:54
And the unbelievers plotted and planned
And Allah, too, planned (or deceived)
The best of planners/deceivers is Allah
Elsewhere in the Quran it explains that Allah tricks non-Muslims into thinking that they are doing good deeds, when they are actually deepening their own eternal punishment with bad deeds:
Quran 27:4
As to those who do not believe in the Hereafter (as per the Quran)
We have made their deeds pleasing in their eyes,
So that they blindly wonder on.
Repeatedly Allah states that he chooses not to guide non-Muslims to the right path. But he also repeated damns non-Muslims to torture and suffering because they don’t follow the right path. The passages directing them to suffering are included in the first section of this page, but the following shows how he chose to let them wonder and be unguided and doomed to suffer.
Quran 39:23
Such is the guidance of Allah that He guides therewith whom He pleases,
But such as Allah leaves to stray, they can have none to guide them.
Quran 6:39
Who Allah wills He leaves to wander.
And who Allah wills He places on the path that is Straight.
Quran 35:8
Who is rightly guided?
Allah leaves to stray who He wills,
And He guides who He wills.
Quran 13:27
The unbelievers say: Why is not a sign sent down to him from his Lord?
Say (to them): Truly Allah leaves to stray whom He wills
Quran 14:4
Now Allah leaves straying those whom He pleases,
And He guides whom He pleases,
And He is exalted in Power.
Allah recruits Satan to join Him into fooling non-Muslims into thinking that they are doing good:
Quran 6:43
Satan made their (sinful) acts seem alluring to them.
The joke is on non-Muslims who will protest on Judgment Day that they did everything they thought was right yet they are sent to hell anyway:
Quran 16:28-29
Then would they offer submission with the pretense "We did no evil knowingly."
The angels will reply, "Nay, but verily Allah knows all that ye did; so enter the gates of Hell to dwell therein.
Those outside of Islam are in actuality helpers of evil against Allah: Quran 25:55 The Misbeliever is a helper of Evil against his own Lord!
The Quran says that "hostility and hate" will exist between Muslims and infidels (non-Muslims) "forever" until the infidels "believe in Allah alone." Quran 60:4
The Quran specifically addresses Christians, Jews, Polytheists (Hindus) and atheists:
Christians are disbelievers (98:6-7) and blasphemers (5:16-21) (5:73) who have invented a lie about Allah (10:68-69) by ascribing partners to Allah (i.e. the Trinity). Inventing a lie about Allah is the worst of sins (7:37) (29:68) and for this reason Christians are condemned to Hell (10:70).
Although one verse seems to say that righteous Christians will go to heaven, this is abrogated (cancelled) by later verses that make it very clear that Christians must cease being Christian (ie. reject the Trinity) or suffer eternal torment for their beliefs (5:72-73).
Jews are also cursed by Allah (5:13) in one of his final pronouncements. The Quran goes on to assure Muslims that Jews are wicked (4:160-162); so wicked that they have somehow managed to do the impossible (18:27) and alter the word of Allah (2:75). Jews are “fond of lies” and “devour the forbidden” (5:42).
The Quran assures believers that Jews and Christians have “diseased hearts” (5:52). Allah even takes credit for the enmity between them (5:14). Only Jews and Christians who submit to Islamic subjugation and pay the Jizya (tax for not being Moslem) are protected in this world (9:29) (Hadith Ibn Ishaq 956).
Hindus are considered to be polytheists. Although Mohammad didn’t know any Hindus (and neither did Allah, apparently) the Quran still manages to lay the groundwork for the 1000 year ethnic cleansing campaign against the Hindu people that is estimated to have taken tens of millions of innocent lives. In Islam, polytheists are worse than all other religion. Those who join idols (14:30) or false gods (11:14) to Allah also invent a lie about Him (29:17) and will burn in Hell. Even believing in other divine entities along with Allah is an unforgivable crime (4:48) (40:12). The Quran, speaks of Jihad instead: Listen not to the unbelievers, but strive (Jihad) against them with the utmost harshness (25:52).
What is the point in hearing anything a non-Moslem has to say or even talk with them for Allah has already sealed their hearts and condemned them to Hell: As for the Disbelievers, Whether thou warn them or thou warn them not it is all one for them; they believe not. Allah hath sealed their hearing and their hearts, and on their eyes there is a covering. Theirs will be an awful doom (2:6).
The Quran Says that People of Other Religions are to be Violently Punished in This World
Allah himself fights against the unbelievers (9:30) so why should Muslims not fight in his cause rather than in the cause of evil (4:76). About 19% of the Quran is devoted to the violent conquest and subjugation of non-Muslims: Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power, including steeds of war, to strike terror into (the hearts of) the enemies of Allah and your enemies and others besides, whom ye may not know (8:60). Strive hard (Jihad) against the Unbelievers and the Hypocrites, and be firm against them. Their abode is Hell--an evil refuge indeed (66:9) (See also 9:73).
Unbelievers should be punished in this life as well: …He whom Allah sends astray, for him there is no guide. For them is a penalty in the life of this world, but harder, truly, is the penalty of the Hereafter… (13:33-34).
There are at least two places in the Quran where the violent death of non-Muslims is referred to as Allah's reward for unbelief (2:191) (9:26), as in "such is the reward for unbelievers." Verse 3:56 states that "those who reject faith" will be "punished with terrible agony in this world" (a vow that Mohammad and his companions personally took it upon themselves to fulfill).
The Quran tells Muslims that Allah uses them to violently punish others: Fight them, Allah will punish them by your hands and bring them to disgrace... (9:14).
In the end all beings on heaven and earth will be forced to bow down to Allah either willingly or by force: And unto Allah falls prostrate whosoever is in the heavens and the earth, willingly or unwillingly (13:15).
Muslims are told that Allah "loves those who fight in his way" to make Islam "victorious over all other religions, even though the disbelievers resist" (61:4-11). Those who do resist Islam will be humiliated: Those who resist Allah and His Messenger will be among those most humiliated (58:20). The context for this verse is the eviction of the Jewish tribes of Medina and the confiscation of their wealth, land, and children by Mohammad).
Non-Muslims are to be fought until religion is only for Allah: And fight them until there is no more ftna (unbelief, worshipping others beside Allah), and religion is all for Allah… (8:39). Some translate the word "fitna" as “persecution”, but in this context it means resistance to Islam – defined in the prior verse as an unwillingness to believe (see verse 38). This passage was “revealed” following a battle that Mohammad deliberately provoked. Verse 2:193 essentially says the same thing and was also “revealed” at a time when the Muslims were not under physical attack.
Those with "diseased hearts" - which include Christians and Jews according to (5:52) are to be "seized wherever found and slain with a (fierce) slaughter" (33:60-62) along with "hypocrites" (Muslims who are judged not to be true believers by their associations with unbelievers or their unwillingness to engage in Jihad).
Non-Muslims are to be encroached on, pressured and punished by the Muslims: See they not that We gradually reduce the land (in their control) from its outlying borders? (13:41) (see also 21:44). We shall punish them gradually from directions they perceive not (68:44).
And He made you heirs to their land and their dwellings and their property, and (to) a land which you have not yet trodden, and Allah has power over all things (33:27) (see also Hadith Bukhari 53:392).
Allah will grant Muslims authority and power over all other people:
Allah has promised, to those among you who believe and work righteous deeds, that He will, of a surety, grant them in the land, inheritance (of power), as He granted it to those before them; that He will establish in authority their religion... (24:55). (Mohammad's companions continued to self-fulfill this prophecy with an aggressive and senseless military expansion that left a trail of bodies from Spain to India).
Allah provides instructions to Muslims for dealing with unbelievers who are unwilling to accept Islamic rule: Remember thy Lord inspired the angels (with the message): "I am with you: give firmness to the Believers: I will instill terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers: smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off them." This because they contended against Allah and His Messenger: If any contend against Allah and His Messenger, Allah is strict in punishment (8:12-13).
Remember that the Quran says that not all men are equal according to Islam. This even applies to Muslims with regard to their aggressiveness toward unbelievers. Those who kill or are killed on behalf of Islam are more pleasing to Allah: Not equal are those of the believers who sit at home... and those who strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allah with their wealth and lives (4:95).
According to the Quran, non-Muslims: Eat like beasts 47:12 Are apes 7:166, 5:60, 2:65 Are swines 5:60 Are asses 74:50 The vilest of animals in Allah's sight 8:55 Losers 2:27, 2:121, 3:85 Have a disease in their hearts 2:10, 5:52, 24:50 Are hard-hearted 39:22, 57:16 Impure of hearts 5:41 Are deaf 2:171, 6:25 Are blind 2:171, 6:25 Are dumb 2:171, 6:35, 11:29 Are niggardly 4:37, 70:21 Works shall be rendered ineffective 2:217, 47:1, 47:8 Are impure 8:37 Are scum 13:17 Are inordinate 5:68, 78:22 Are transgressors 2:26, 9:8, 46:20 Are unjust 29:49 Make mischief 16:88 Are the worst of men 98:6 Are in a state of confusion 50:5 Are the lowest of the low 95:5 Focus only on outward appearance 19:73-74 Are guilty 30:12, 77:46 Sinful liars 45:7 Follow falsehood 47:3 Deeds are like the mirage in a desert 24:39 also... Allah does not love them 3:32, 22:38 Allah forsakes them 32:14, 45:34 Allah brought down destruction upon them 47:10 Allah has cursed them 2:88, 48:6 Allah despises them 17:18 Allah abases them 22:18
Since 9/11 terrorism in the name of Allah occurs in:
India and the Sudan and Algeria and New York and Pakistan and Israel and Russia and Chechnya and the Philippines and Indonesia and Nigeria and England and Thailand and Spain and Egypt and Bangladesh and Saudi Arabia and Turkey and Morocco and Yemen and Arkansas and France and Uzbekistan and Gaza and Tunisia and Kosovo and Bosnia and Mauritania and Kenya and Eritrea and Syria and Somalia and California and Kuwait and Virginia and Ethiopia and Georgia and Jordan and United Arab Emirates and Louisiana and Texas and Tanzania and Illinois and Australia and Pennsylvania and Belgium and Denmark and East Timor and Qatar and Maryland and Tajikistan and the Netherlands and Afghanistan and Chad and Canada and China and Nepal and the Maldives and Argentina and Mali and Angola and the Ukraine and Uganda and North Carolina and Germany and Arizona and Lebanon and Iran and Kazakhstan and Sweden and Azerbaijan and Iraq and Scotland and Macedonia and Bulgaria and Cameroon and Massachusetts ... and pretty much wherever Islam is taken seriously: "O ye who believe! Fight those of the disbelievers who are near to you, and let them find harshness in you, and know that Allah is with those who keep their duty ( 9:123).
This is not a complete list of all verses teaching violence and hatred, but long enough to clearly see that Moslems are taught to dislike, distrust and hate non-Muslims and that Muslims are instructed to execute non-Muslims. These types of verses can be found throughout the entire Quran.
And those who follow the Jewish (scriptures)
And the Christians and the Sabians* …
And well ye know those amongst you ...
We said to them “Be ye apes, despised and rejected”
*Sabians were a religious community well known in Basra, Iraq at the time of Mohammad and are also known as Christians of St. John. This verse states that Jews, Christians and Sabians are "apes, despised and rejected". Apes, not being human, means "less than human".
Quran 2:244
Fight in the cause of Allah
Quran 2:216
Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it.
But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you,
… Allah knoweth, and ye know not.
This verse is often used to incite violence, stating that violence is virtuous and that "it is good for you".
Quran 3:28
Let not the Believers (Muslims)
Take for friends, nor for helpers, unbelievers (non-Muslims).
Ye Believers: if any of ye do that,
Nothing will Allah help thee with;
Quite clearly it is stating here that Muslims should not make friends with non-Muslims.
Quran 3:56
As to those who reject faith (those who do not convert to Islam),
I will punish them with terrible agony
In this world and in the Hereafter,
Quran 3:65-71
It is the wish of the People of the Book*
To lead you astray
But they shall lead astray not you, but themselves.
Ye People of the Book!
Why do ye clothe truth with falsehoods
And conceal the Truth?
*Jews and Christians are People of the Book
Quran 3:116
Those who reject Faith (i.e. reject Islam)
Neither their possessions nor their numerous progeny
Will avail them
They will be companions of the Fire (hell)
And will dwell there forever
Quran 3:151
Soon shall we cast terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers (non-Muslims)
… their abode will be the fire
Quran 4:47
O People of the Book! (i.e. Jews and Christians)
Believe in what We have now revealed,
Confirming what was already with you before,
We change the face and fame of some of you beyond all recognition*
And turn them hindwards or curse them as we cursed the Sabbath breakers
For the decision of Allah must be carried out.
*In a Quran written in Arabic, an Arabic idiom is used here: “Before we obliterate some features or faces and turn them front to back or back to front”. The face is an expression of a man’s real essence and his reputation and distinction. According to the Quran, the People of the Book had at one time been favored by God with revelations from their prophets. But if they prove themselves unworthy, by not following the last prophet--Mohammad--they will “lose face” and will no longer be reputable (they must convert to Islam and accept that Mohammad is the last Prophet). If they don’t convert and accept Mohammad as the last prophet, they will be degraded and Muslims will take their place. “The first shall be the last and the last shall be the first”. It doesn't translate well into other languages, but the meaning is clear. Muslims are the true believers and one day all people on earth will be Muslims.
Quran 4:51-56
Hast thou not turned thy vision to those
Who were given a portion of the Book?
They believe in Sorcery and Evil …
They are men whom Allah hath cursed
And those who Allah hath cursed, thou wilt find have no one to help …
Those who reject our signs we shall soon cast you into the Fire
As often as their skins are roasted through
We shall change them for fresh skins.
That they may taste the penalty,
For Allah is exalted in Power and Wise
Again, non-Muslims are seen as bad people--they believe in Sorcery and Evil, and Allah has cursed them. Allah is very vengeful, he will set them on fire until their skins are burnt through.
Quran 4:144
O ye who believe! Do not take for friends unbelievers …
Do ye wish to offer Allah an open proof against yourselves?
Yet another verse instructing Muslims not to take non-Muslims as friends.
I jump to Quran 5:60-63 to make a point:
O ye who believe! (Muslims)
Take not for friends* those who take your religion
For a mockery (i.e. who don’t take it seriously or think Islam is not the one and only true religion)
Whether among those who received the scripture before you (Jews and Christians)
Or among those who reject Faith (reject Islam).
Shall I point out to you something much worse than this,
By the treatment it received from Allah?
Those who incurred the curse of Allah and his wrath*
Those of whom some he transformed into apes and swine
*Regarding the “curse of Allah”, most Imams and Islamic scholars will say that it is in the Bible that Jews received the curse of God (Deuteronomy 27-28) and that Jews provoked God’s wrath (Matthew 3:1-7). Who forsook God and worshiped evil? This is yet another lesson to Muslims that Jews and Christians are bad and evil.
To understand fully about Jews being apes and swine we go to a previous verse, Quran 2:63-65, which states that:
Remember we took your covenant and we raised above you
Saying: “Hold firmly to what We have given you and bring to remembrance what is therein";
But ye turned back thereafter had it not been for the grace of Allah you had surely been lost
And still you know those amongst you who transgressed
We said to them: “Be ye apes, despised and rejected”.
So we have verses 5:60 and 2:63-65 in which Muslims believe Jews were cursed and turned into apes. Even Mohammad Morsi, (member of the Muslim Brotherhood and president of Egypt for one year) called Jews pigs and apes in several of his speeches. Al-Qaeda leaders use the phrase, too. Pigs are particularly hated in Islam and considered filthy and dirty and the lowest of all animals. They are inhuman and deserve to be treated as such.
Quran 4:74
Let those who fight in the cause of Allah
Who sell the life of this world for the Hereafter,
To him who fight in the cause of Allah,
Whether he is slain or whether he gets victory
Soon shall we give him a reward of great value.
Those who die for Allah and the implementation of Islam and Islamic Law are the opposite of Christians (who were led meekly to the slaughter). Muslims attempt to inflict death and destruction for Allah. Extremists use this verse as the basis for suicide bombings.
Quran 4:76
Those who believe will fight in the cause of Allah…"
Quran 4:89
They but wish that ye should reject Faith (Islam),
As they do, and thus be on the same footing as they:
But take not friends from those until they flee in the way of Allah
But if they turn renegades, seize them and slay them wherever ye find them;
and take no friends or helpers from them.
Once again, Muslims are told not to take non-Muslims as friends.
Quran 4:95
Not equal are those believers who sit (at home) and receive no injury (who do not fight for Islam),
But to those who strive and fight in the cause of Allah with their goods and their persons
In this verse, we see that Allah hath granted a grade higher to those who strive and fight with their goods and persons (body) than to those who sit (who do not fight). Those who strive and fight has He distinguished above those who sit (do not fight) by a special reward. This passage is clearly stating that those who remain "peaceful" and who do not join in the fight for Islam are less worthy of reward from Allah. It also destroys the myth that "Jihad" is a “spiritual” struggle or that “fight” doesn't mean holy war. Not only is the Arabic word used in this passage for fight as in war, but it is very obviously not referring to anything spiritual.
Quran 4:101
… the unbelievers are your open enemies …
This is quite clear: unbelievers, or non-Muslims, whether Christian, Jew or other, are your enemies.
Quran 5:32
Allah told the people of Israel if you kill one Muslim, unless for corruption of the land,
It is as if you killed the entire Muslim community.
If you save one Muslim life, the whole Muslim community is saved.
Our messengers came to the Israelites with clear messages and signs of Allah’s supremacy,
But many Israelites continued to commit mischief and corruption on the land.
The punishment for those who wage war against Allah or Mohammad,
or who strive for mischief or corruption,
is Beheading, or Crucifixion, or the cutting off the right hand and the left foot.
Here, Jews are being warned that if they kill a Muslim, it is a crime of such magnitude that it is the same as if they killed the entire Muslim community (or a village). A Jew is not allowed to kill a Muslim -- it is a crime of great magnitude.
According to Islamic Doctrine, “mischief” or “corruption” of the land is when someone disobeys the laws of Islam.
The only time a Muslim can be "lawfully" killed is when it is according to Islamic Law, such as for apostasy, or when a Muslim kills another Muslim (an eye for an eye). A non-Muslim is not allowed to kill a Muslim under any circumstances. But if a Muslim kills a Jew or a Christian (or any non-Muslim), it is not considered unlawful, so there is no punishment.
This verse clearly defines the punishment for when a Jew, or any non-Muslim, violates Islam. When a non-Muslim commits “corruption on the land” the punishment is crucifixion, beheading or cutting off a hand and a foot. But "corruption" is a very broad term in Islamic Doctrine.
Corruption on the land, sometimes translated as "mischief on earth" or "mischief on the land", consists of an enormous category of offenses including: criticizing or questioning Islam; calling for a change in Islamic traditions; prejudice against Muslims; jokes about Islam or Mohammad (jokes are altogether banned in strict Muslim countries—whether about Mohammad or not); an attempt to undermine the goals of Islam; or, an attempt to undermine the interests of Muslims.
It is interesting to note here that currently in Christian villages in Africa, extremists have been using this verse to enter a Christian village and “cut off hands and feet from “opposite sides” of the men. This is the verse used to condone this atrocity. And we see clearly that by this time, when reading the Quran chapter by chapter, Muslims have a clear dislike of non-Muslims, even taught to not take them as friends, but this verse is telling Muslims to execute or crucify them. In Syria, the rebels crucify Christians almost daily. This is happening elsewhere, too, wherever radicals can find Christians. This is happening in Syria, Iraq, Egypt, Iran, etc.
Quran 5:51
O ye who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians for friends.
They are friends one to another. He among you who taketh them for friends is one of them.
This is saying that anyone who takes a non-Muslim as a friend could be accused of being an unbeliever as well. And in 5:17 Christians are included in the ranks of "unbelievers": They indeed have disbelieved who say: Lo! Christ is the Messiah, son of Mary.
Quran 5:80-81
O People of the Book!
Exceed not in your religion the bounds of what is proper;
Trespassing beyond the truth, nor follow the vain desire
Of people who went wrong in times gone by—who misled many
and strayed themselves from the right way.
Curses were pronounced on those among the children of Israel who rejected faith
by the tongue of David and of Jesus, the son of Mary
because they disobeyed and persisted in excesses
… evil indeed were the deeds which they did …
This verse is used to make Muslims feel that the People of the Book, both Christian and Jews, are less than Muslims because they did not follow the right path--and that Muslims are placed above them in superiority because they follow the true and right path. The statement that People of the Book have been cursed by Allah is also very important because it is used to emphasize that Jews and Christians are evil—and they have been cursed by Allah.
Quran 5:83
Thou see many of them turning in friendship to the unbelievers (non-Muslims)
Evil indeed are the works which their soul has sent forward before them
With the result that Allah’s wrath is on them
And in torment will they abide.
Again we see that a Muslim should not make friends with non-Muslims or they will have Allah’s wrath upon them.
Quran 5:84
If only they had believed in Allah, and in the Prophet (Mohammad)
And in what hath been revealed to him
Never would they have taken them for friends and protectors
But most of them are rebellious wrong doers.
This verse clearly states that those who don’t follow the revelations of Mohammad (the Quran) or who take friendship of non-Muslims are “rebellious wrong doers”.
Quran 7:165-167
We visited the wrong doers with a grievous punishment because they were given to transgression
When in their insolence they transgressed all prohibitions
We said to them: Be ye apes, despised and rejected ...
Behold! The Lord did declare that He would be against them on the Day of Judgment
They will be afflicted with grievous penalty.
Allah is quick in retribution.
There are several verses in the Quran that call non-Muslims apes or pigs, this is one of them. And again Allah says non-Muslims will not do well on the Day of Judgment and they will be penalized.
Quran 8:12
I will cast terror into the hearts of the unbelievers (non-Muslims).
Strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them.
The meaning is clear here. Non-Muslims will be terrorized and will have their heads and every fingertip cut off.
Quran 8:15-16
O ye who believe!
When ye meet the unbelievers in battle,
Never turn your backs to them.
If any do turn his back to them on such a day,
Unless it be in a strategy of war,
Or to retreat to a troop (of his own)
He draws upon himself the wrath of Allah
And his abode is Hell -- an evil refuge indeed.
This is saying that when “in battle” and face the non-Muslims, you must not turn or run away from them--you must fight them--unless it’s a strategy of some sort, such as regrouping to attack. In other words, you must fight them.
Quran 8:39
And fight with them until there is no more fitna (unbelief in Allah)
And there prevail justice and faith in Allah altogether and everywhere.
The important part of this is that Muslims must fight until there are none left who are unbelievers (non-Muslims). Only those left are those who are the believers (Muslims) … everywhere (throughout the world).
Quran 8:57
If ye gain mastery over them in war
Deal with those who follow them,
So as to strike fear in those who are behind them,
And that they will remember.
Today, when we hear of the atrocities committed by Muslims on Christian villagers, we see videos of the carnage left behind: beheadings, hands or feet cut off, torture, to name just a few things done to non-Muslims. This is a strategy in war as per the Quran.
In 8:12 we saw that Allah wants Muslims to terrorize non-Muslims by cutting off heads and fingers. In this verse it continues the theme of terrorizing non-Muslims so that afterwards “they will remember”. Non-Muslims will remember the carnage and be fearful. Here we clearly see that the Quran is not “peaceful”. It is filled with war strategy and commands Muslims to commit atrocities. This verse is often used to promote jihad to gain mastery over non-Muslims and the west.
Today, with cell phones that take videos, Islamists commit atrocities and film it and place the videos on the internet to instill terror. And it works. Christians in countries with a Moslem majority are very, very afraid. They know exactly what is done to other Christians.
Quran 8:59-60
And let not the unbelievers think that they can get the better of Allah's Purpose.
Lo! They cannot escape.
Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power,
Including armed steeds of war to strike terror into the hearts of the enemies of Allah,
And your enemies and others besides whom ye may not know.
Quran 8:65
O Prophet, Rouse the believers to fight
If there are twenty amongst you
Conquer two hundred;
If a hundred amongst you,
Conquer a thousand of the unbelievers
For these are a people without understanding of Allah.
Many Muslim commentators say that odds of ten to one may sound appalling but this number does not daunt Moslem men of faith. It does not matter whether they die in these battles because their cause prevails. But they are sure to win because they have divine aid and have taken up arms in righteousness.
Quran 9:5
When the sacred months are over,
Fight and slay the infidels (non-Muslims) wherever you find them.
Capture, besiege and ambush them.
In every strategy of war
Here we clearly see that non-Muslims are to be “slayed wherever you find them”.
Quran 9:14-17
Punish infidels with your hands (kill, hurt)
Cover them with shame (rape, sodomize)
To do so will help you achieve victory over them
In fire shall they dwell
In 9:5 we saw a verse that says 'when the sacred months are over, slay the infidels'. Both 9:5 and 9:14-17 were used in the atrocities the Muslim Brotherhood carried out in July and August 2013 (as well as many times in the past). During that July, the Muslim Brotherhood posted videos on Facebook and YouTube and were even on TV telling their followers to kill Christians and set them on fire (in fire shall they dwell). The Moslem Brotherhood did just that. Christian homes and shops were burned to the ground, many Christians were injured and some were killed. 80 churches were torched, over 40 burned to the ground and were un-repairable--some were historical monuments. The atrocities conducted by the Muslim Brotherhood is just one example, these same tactics are done by most all Islamists who attack Christians and Jews.
Quran 9:20
Those who believe and suffer exile and strive with might and main in Allah’s cause
with their goods and their persons
Have the highest rank in the eyes of Allah.
They are the people who will be triumphant.
This verse is very clear: those who fight for Allah have the highest rank in the eyes of Allah and they are the ones who will be triumphant. This verse encourages Moslems to fight, even if they suffer.
Quran 9:29
Fight those who do not believe in Allah, nor the Last Day,
Nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Prophet,
Nor acknowledge the religion of Truth (Islam), even if they are of the People of the Book,
Until they pay the Jizya in acknowledgement of superiority and that they are in a state of subjection.
Jizya is a tax placed on non-Muslims. Christians and Jews in countries where Islamic Law is in place must pay a tax until they convert to Islam. In some places the tax is made so high that people cannot afford it. They are then told they must convert or be killed. Today, currently, in villages that have been attacked by Rebels in Syria and in villages in various countries in Africa where Islamists have attacked Christian villages, the Christians that are left alive must pay a tax. And again, if they can’t, they are given the choice: convert or be killed. Some of these killings, of people who would not convert, are filmed and shown on YouTube to further terrorize Christians in the region.
This verse was one of the final "revelations" made to Mohammad and was the start of his military expansion and in which his followers continued until two-thirds of the Christian world was conquered in approximately 100 years. Islam is a political and war strategy intended to dominate all other people and faiths.
Quran 9:30-31
The Jews call Uzair a son of God and the Christians call Christ the Son of God.
That is a saying from their mouth.
Allah’s curse be on them: How they are deluded away from the Truth (Islam).
They take their priests and their anchorites to be
Their lords in derogation of Allah
And they take as their Lord Christ the son of Mary
Yet they were commanded to worship but One God
There is no God but He
Praise and glory to Him
Far is He from having the partners they associate with Him
This verse is used to create hostility and hatred towards Jews and Christians.
Quran 9:36
Surely the number of months with Allah is twelve months
Since the day when He created the heavens and the earth,
Of these four being sacred; that is the right reckoning;
Therefore be not unjust to yourselves regarding the sacred,
and fight the unbelievers all together as they fight you
Once again, Muslims are instructed to kill non-Muslims.
Quran 9:38-39
O ye who believe! What is the matter with you
That when ye are asked to go forth in the cause of Allah,
Ye cling heavily to the earth?
Do ye prefer the life of this world to the Hereafter?
But little is the comfort of this life, as compared with the Hereafter.
Unless ye go forth to fight, He will punish you with a grievous penalty.
This verse is used as a warning to those who do not want to fight non-believers. It is used to threaten them that they will be punished with Hell if they do not “go forth” and fight in the name of Allah.
Quran 9:73
O Prophet! Strive hard against the unbelievers and the hypocrites (those who do not join in the fighting for Islam)
And be firmly against them; their abode is hell, and evil is their destination.
This verse is used to dehumanize non-Muslims by making them “evil” and doomed to hell. Throughout the Quran the idea that non-Muslims are meant for hell—that there is no alternative than hell for non-Muslims reinforces the idea that non-Muslims must be eliminated—that they are “evil” and should be terminated so as not to further the evil in this world. In this way it is easy to justify killing them. By citing these verses, today's Muslims are taught to have no regard for those outside the faith. Also, the term hypocrites is used throughout the Quran. This term is used to make those who do not “fight” for Islam almost as bad and as the evil as the non-Muslims.
Quran 9:88-89
But the Prophet and those who believe in him,
Strive and fight with their wealth and their persons.
… those who fight …
Allah hath prepared for them
Gardens under which rivers flow, to dwell therein…
Those who fight and kill non-Muslims are promised Paradise when they die. This is another major theme throughout the Quran. Muslims are taught that if they die in the process of killing non-Moslems, they are promised Paradise. Most people fear death and what comes after. This solves the problem of fearing the after-life and makes extremists have no fear of death when they die during their endeavors against non-Muslims. They feel extremely self-righteous because they are quite sure they will go to Paradise for killing non-Muslims.
Quran 9:111
Allah hath purchased of the Believers
Their persons and their goods
For theirs in return is the Garden of Paradise
They fight in His cause and slay and are slain
A promise binding on Him in truth through the Law
Who is more faithful to his promise than Allah?
So rejoice in the bargain which ye have concluded.
This is the achievement supreme.
Here the Quran defines a true believer by the fact that they whole-heartedly (in person and in goods) fight and kill non-Muslims in return for Allah’s promise that those who fight and kill are achieving their most true purpose on earth (“achievement supreme”) and will go to the “Garden of Paradise”.
Quran 9:123
O ye who believe!
Fight the Unbelievers who are around you
And let them find harshness in you
And know that Allah is with those who keep their duty.
In commentaries and teachings by Islamic scholars, this verse is taught with the idea that fighting is inevitable and that when an Imam says to fight or kill, then you must obey. Many verses are used in this way. Ali (1968) in his commentary on this verse is an example: “Where a call is made by the Imam to fight it should be obeyed.”
Quran 17:16
When we decide to destroy a population,
We first send a definite order to those among them
Who are given the good things of this life …
And yet transgress so that the word is proved true against them.
Then it is. We destroy them utterly.
First, note that this verse clearly states: “When we decide to destroy a population.” Destroying a population refers to Jewish or Christian communities in which the idea here is to either kill or convert them. Ali (1968) is often referred to when interpreting this verse. Ali says “Those who are highly gifted from God, it may be with wealth or position, or it may be with talents and opportunities, are expected to understand and obey.”
Many Muslims take this to further mean that if you have wealth or position, you should further the Islamic cause with your money or position. For example, the Muslim Brotherhood will use their powerful funding organizations to further Islam by using their money to place well-trained young Muslims into universities where they can promote Islam’s goals. This is only one example of what one can do with money—arms are also bought with wealth.
Other Islamic scholars have interpreted this verse as:
When We wish to destroy a town,
We send Our commandment to the people of it (instructions to convert),
But if they transgress therein (if they won’t convert to Islam), the word of Allah is that We destroy it with utter destruction.
The punishment for not converting is utter destruction of the town; this means massacre the entire town.
Quran 18:65-84
There are 104 lines in the story within verses 18:65-81. To summarize, it tells a story of a boy who was about to bring dishonor to his parents. He was killed for this. This story in these verses in the Quran is how honor killings are rationalized. If a family member dishonors your family, this verse tells you that it is best to kill that person. Your family honor is everything. Ridding your family of this disgrace will put you back in favor with the community.
There are many commentators who have various slight interpretation differences, but all agree that Allah wanted the boy killed because the boy would have brought dishonor to the parents. Today we see “honor” killings primarily done to females. But this verse allows family members to kill other family members who might bring dishonor to the family.
Another verse in the Quran that is used for honor killing is 4:34-35. It states that men are in charge of women and are their protectors and maintainers. Because of this the Muslim community believes that it is the duty of men to control their wives and daughters since men are the “maintainers” (provide for them). In order to keep the honor of the family, it is believed via Islam and cultural tradition, that if the strain of controlling a woman becomes so great (i.e. the wife is constantly disobedient and brings shame, or if a daughter is behaving too ‘free’ in an immigrant society residing in the west), all agree that murder is the only answer.
Quran 22:19-21
(This verse talks about those who are fit for punishment or those who defy Allah’s will--those who do not follow Islam):
Those who deny their Lord,
For them will be cut out a garment of fire; and
Over their heads will be poured boiling water.
With it will be scaled what is within their bodies,
As well as their skins.
In addition there will be
Maces of iron to punish them.
This verse is often used as examples of how to punish non-Muslims.
Quran 25:52
Therefore listen not to the Unbelievers,
But strive against them with the utmost strenuousness.
“Strive against” is usually interpreted as jihad.
Quran 33:60-62
If the hypocrites, and those in whose hearts is a disease, and the alarmists in the city do not cease,
We verily shall urge thee on against them, then they will be your neighbors in it but a little while.
Cursed, they will be seized wherever found and slain with a fierce slaughter.
This passage sanctions the slaughter (most often a killing that is "merciless" or a "horrible murder" in other translations) against three groups: Hypocrites (Muslims who refuse to "fight in the name of Allah" [see below*] and hence are not behaving as Muslims should); those with "diseased hearts" (Jews and Christians [see below**]); and, "alarmists" or "agitators who include those who merely speak out against Islam. It is worth noting that the victims are to be sought out by Muslims, which is what today's terrorists do.
* 3:167 And the hypocrites, they were told: Come, fight in the way of Allah, Or at least drive the foe from the city.
** 5:52 And if they turn away, be assured that for some of their crimes it is Allah’s purpose to punish them.
Quran 40:69-72
Seest thou not those that dispute concerning the signs of Allah
How they are turned away from reality? (reality being Islam)
Those who reject the book (Quran) and the revelations (of Mohammad)
But soon they shall know when the yokes shall be around their necks
And the chains they shall be dragged along in the boiling fetid fluid
Then in the Fire shall they be burned.
These verses are often used to teach Muslims that Christians and Jews are non-believers and that they are bad people. The lines about “yokes around their necks” and “chains that they shall be dragged”, we see done currently today as well as the past. Imams cite these verses in the mosque and Muslims leave the mosque filled with hatred and attack Christians and either hang them or many times (it is shown on YouTube quite often) Muslims are seen dragging Christians who are bound at the feet by ropes and dragged behind motorcycles or cars until they have pavement burns or are tortured to death by mobs on the streets clubbing them as they are dragged along.
Quran 47:3-4
Those who reject Allah follow vanities,
While those who believe follow the truth from their lord.
Thus does Allah set forth from men their lessons by similitude.
Therefore when you meet and fight the unbelievers (non-Muslims) in battle,
Smite at their necks until you have overcome them
Those who reject Allah (Islam) are to be subdued in battle. The verse goes on to say the only reason Allah doesn't do the dirty work himself is because Allah is testing the faithfulness of Muslims—they must fight and kill in order to show their faith. Those who kill pass the test.
Quran 47:35
Be not weary and faint-hearted, or cry for peace,
When ye should be uppermost (have the upper hand) for Allah is with you (when you fight for Allah).
Quran 48:17
There is no blame for the blind, nor is there blame for the lame, nor is there blame for the sick, that they go not forth to war.
And who so obeyeth Allah and His messenger, He will make him enter Gardens underneath which rivers flow;
And for those who turn back (from war), Allah will punish with a painful doom.
This verse says that those who do not fight in jihad will suffer a painful punishment.
Quran 48:29
Mohammad is the messenger of Allah.
And those who are with him are ruthless against the disbelievers (non-Muslims)
But compassionate amongst each other (fellow Muslims).
This verse is often used to point out that people are not equal; that Muslims are superior to all others, and therefore others should never be treated equally. The word used for ruthless in this verse shares the same root as a word translated as 'painful’ in a previous verse.
Buddhists in Thailand, Jews in Israel, Christians in Indonesia, Hindus in India: Why is Islam at war with every major world religion when none of these religions are at war with each other or with Islam? Part of the reason is that the Quran is specific about the inferiority of other faiths:
Quran 48:28
It is He who has sent his apostle Mohammad with guidance
And [brings] the Religion of truth to proclaim it over all religions...
Thou will see them (members of other religions) bow and prostrate themselves.
Quran 58:14-17
Avoid those who turn to you in friendship (Christians or Jews who try to befriend you)
To do such will have the wrath of Allah.
They are neither of you nor of them and they swear to falsehood knowingly.
They will be the companions of the Fire, to dwell therein.
The Quran says that no true Muslim would ever love anyone who resists Islam--who doesn't submit, even if it is a family member:
Quran 58:22
Thou will not find any people who believe in Allah loving those who resist Allah and His Messenger,
Even though they were their fathers or their sons, or their brothers, or their kindred.
Quran 61:4
Surely Allah loves those who fight in His way …
61:9 … He it is who has sent His Messenger (Mohammed) with guidance and the religion of truth (Islam)
to make it victorious over all religions even though the infidels (non-Muslims) may resist.
The full verse explicitly refers to physical conflict. Infidels who resist Islamic rule are to be fought "His" way--with physical conflict=harm/jihad.
Quran 61:10-12
O You who believe!
Shall I guide you to a commerce that will save you from a painful torment?
That you believe in Allah and His Messenger (Mohammad )
and that you strive hard (jihad) in the Cause of Allah with your wealth and your lives,
that will be better for you, if you but know!
(If you do so) Allah will forgive you your sins, and admit you into Gardens under which rivers flow,
and pleasant dwellings in Gardens of 'Adn - Eternity ['Adn = Eden = Paradise],
That is indeed the great success.
The Arabic root for jihad is used here but translates into "strive hard".
Quran 66:9
O Prophet! Strive against the disbelievers and the hypocrites.
Hell will be their home, a hapless journey's end.
Again the Arabic root word for "Jihad" is used here, but translates as “strive against”. The context is holy war and those who are being jihad against is broadened to include "hypocrites". A hypocrite is the word used for Muslims who do not join the fight for Islam.
In 83:34 the Quran tells Muslims that they will spend eternity laughing at unbelievers and mocking their suffering as they are tortured in Hell:
And the dwellers of the garden [paradise] will call out to the inmates of the fire [hell]:
Surely we have found what our Lord promised us to be true;
Have you too found what your Lord promised to be true?
They will say: Yes.
Quran 98:6
Those who reject Truth (non-Muslims)
Will be in hell fire to dwell therein
For they are the worst of creatures.
This verse is used in some Hadith and Sunna to teach hate towards and to not befriend Christians and Jews.
Hadith Bukhari 8:427 states that one of the last things Mohammad ever said on his deathbed was:
"May Allah curse the Jews and Christians.”
Verses in the Quran that say Muslims should not take Jews or Christians for friends:
Quran 5:51 O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them
Quran 5:80 You will see many of them befriending those who disbelieve; certainly evil is that which their souls have sent before for them, that Allah became displeased with them and in chastisement shall they abide."
Muslims who befriend unbelievers will be chastised.
Quran 3:28
Let not the believers take for friends or helpers unbelievers rather than believers:
If any do that, in nothing will there be help from Allah:
except by way of precaution, that ye may Guard yourselves from them…"
The last part is usually said to mean that the Muslim is allowed to feign friendship if it is of benefit. Renowned scholar Ibn Kathir states that "believers are allowed to show friendship outwardly, but never inwardly."
Quran 3:118
O you who believe! do not take for intimate friends from among others than your own people, they do not fall short of inflicting loss upon you; they love what distresses you; vehement hatred has already appeared from out of their mouths, and what their breasts conceal is greater still; indeed, We have made the communications clear to you, if you will understand."
This verse not only warns Muslims not to take non-Muslims as friends, but it establishes the belief and fear that non-Muslims are evil out to get them.
Quran 9:23
O ye who believe! Choose not your fathers nor your brethren for friends if they take pleasure in disbelief rather than faith. Who so of you taketh them for friends, such are wrong-doers"
Even family members are not to be taken as friends if they do not accept Islam. This is the mildest interpretation of this verse from the 9th Sura, which also advocates "slaying the unbeliever wherever ye find them".
Quran 53:29
Therefore shun those who turn away from Our Message and desire nothing but the life of this world."
Quran 3:85
And whoever desires a religion other than Islam, it shall not be accepted from him, and in the hereafter he shall be one of the losers."
Quran 3:10
(As for) those who disbelieve, surely neither their wealth nor their children shall avail them against Allah, and they it is who are the fuel of the fire."
Those who do not believe in in Islam's message are but fuel for the fire of Hell (also 66:6, 2:24. 21:98).
Quran 7:44
The Companions of the Garden will call out to the Companions of the Fire:
"We have indeed found the promises of Allah is true: Have you also found Your Lord's promises true?"
They shall say, "Yes"; but a crier shall proclaim between them: "The curse of Allah is on the wrong-doers"
Muslims in heaven will amuse themselves by looking down on non-Muslims in Hell and mocking them while they are being tortured (see 22:19-22)
Quran 1:5-7
Show us the straight path, The path of those whom Thou hast favored;
Not the (path) of those who earn Thine anger nor of those who go astray"
This is a prayer that Muslims are supposed to repeat each day. "Those who earn Thine anger" specifically refers to Jews and "those who go astray" refers to Christians (see Hadith Bukhari 12:749)

Although Islam does teach loyalty to fellow Muslims, Islam does not teach love or kindness towards anyone else. In the Quran Muslims are valued above all else and there is no empathy for non-Muslims. During Mohammad’s lifetime and during the “revelations” made to Mohammad, supposedly from God, Mohammad and his followers continuously attacked or rounded up non-Muslims and executed them. Basically, the Quran is a journal of Mohammad’s battle against non-Muslims with the goal to subjugate all non-Muslims with the end result of converting those left to Islam so that in the end, all people on earth are under Islamic rule. This is the end goal of Islam: to conquer and implement Islamic Rule on all societies.
The Quran makes it clear that Islam is not about universal brotherhood, but only about the brotherhood of Muslims (believers are Muslims; unbelievers are non-Muslims):
Quran 49:10 The Believers are but a single Brotherhood
Quran 16:75-76 Slaves and the handicapped are not equal to healthy free men.
According to Islamic Law, non-Muslims may be owned as property by Muslims, but, in keeping with Islam's supremacist message, a fellow Moslem should never be a slave. Christians and Jews are not considered fully equal in that the penalty for killing one of them is limited to one-third of the compensation due for killing a Moslem.
Quran 2:178 The Quran introduces the “Law of Equality” which establishes different levels of human value when considering certain matters, such as restitution for murder. Because of this inequality a Muslim who kills a non-Moslem can often go without punishment, but a non-Muslim who kills a Moslem gets the most horrific sentence.
Quran 3:110 The Quran tells Muslims they are the favored race, while those of other religions are “perverted transgressors”: Ye are the best of peoples, evolved for mankind … If only the People of the Book [Christians and Jews] had faith … most of them are perverted transgressors.
Quran 48:29 Mohammad is the messenger of Allah. And those with him are hard (ruthless) against the disbelievers and merciful among themselves
Quran 9:30 … the Jews say Ezra is the son of God and the Christians say Christ is the son of God ... Allah (Himself) fights against them. How perverse are they!
Quran 56:12-40 As we’ve already seen, Allah condemns non-Muslims to Hell based merely on their unbelief--not being Moslem, while in these verses we see that Muslims are rewarded with the finest earthly comforts in the hereafter, including never-ending food, wine and sex.
Quran 1:6-7 As we have also seen, much of the Quran is devoted to differentiating Muslims from non-Muslims and attacking the non-Muslims (or unbelievers). The first sura of the Quran (1:6-7) is an example of this. It is in the prayer that is repeated by Muslims each day and ends with these words: Keep us on the right path. The path of those upon whom Thou hast bestowed favors. Not the path of those whom Thy wrath is brought down upon.
Mohammad was once asked if these words pertained to Jews and Christians. Mohammad’s response was, "Whom else?" (Hadith: Bukhari 56:662). What this means is that five times a day a Moslem says a prayer that distinguishes him from a Jew or Christian and verifies to him that they have God’s wrath and therefore are evil-doers (as mentioned in various verses or the Quran).
Quran 48:29 Since Allah makes such a strong distinction between Muslims and non-Muslims, it is only natural that Muslims use different standards of treatment towards others in their daily lives. The Quran tells Muslims to be compassionate with other Muslims but ruthless to the non-Muslim (disbelievers): Muhammad is the messenger of Allah. And those with him are hard against the disbelievers and merciful among themselves …
Allah intends for Muslims to triumph over unbelievers:
Quran 4:141 And never will Allah grant to the unbelievers a way to triumph over believers [“any way of success”]
To Muslims, the only acceptable position of non-Muslims is subjugation under Islamic rule:
Quran 9:29 Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, even if they are of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.
Jizya is the tax money that non-Muslims must pay to their Muslim rulers in an Islamic state. A common criticism of Muslims is that they are often arrogant toward others. This is why:
The Quran Dehumanizes Non-Muslims and Says that They are Vile Animals
The Ayatollah Khomeini said that non-Muslims rank somewhere between "feces" and the "sweat of a camel that has consumed impure food." This is because the Quran dehumanizes non-Muslims and describes them as “animals” and beasts:
Quran 98:6 Those who reject Truth (Islam) among the People of the Book … They are the worst of creatures.
Quran 8:55 Surely the vilest of animals in Allah's sight are those who disbelieve (the unbelievers=non-Muslims)
Quran 7:176 compares unbelievers to "panting dogs" with regard to their idiocy and worthlessness.
Quran 7:179 says non-Muslims are like "cattle" (and worse).
Many are the Jinns (evil spirits) and are men we have made for Hell;
They have hearts wherewith they understand not; eyes wherewith they see not;
They are like cattle—nay, they are more misguided;
Quran 5:63 says that Allah transformed Jews of the past into apes and pigs
Shall I point out to you something much worse,
By the treatment they received from Allah?
Those who incurred the curse of Allah and His wrath,
Those of whom He transformed into apes and swine …
(This is repeated in verses 2:65 and 7:166)
Quran 2:65
Those amongst you who transgressed in the matter of the Sabbath;
We said to them “Be ye apes, despised and rejected”.
Quran 7:166
When in their insolence they transgressed all prohibition
We said to them “Be ye apes, despised and rejected”
Hadith Bukhari 54:524 says that Mohammad believed rats to be "mutated Jews". This is confirmed by Hadith Sahih Muslim 7135 and 7136
Quran 8:55 Surely the vilest of animals in Allah's sight are those who disbelieve
The Quran Says that Allah does NOT Love Unbelievers
Christianity teaches that God loves all people, but hates sin. The Quran never says anything remotely like this and instead it explicitly declares that Allah does not love Non-Muslims (or unbelievers):
Quran 30:45 Allah does not love the unbelievers
Quran 3:32 Allah loveth not those who reject the Faith (Islam)
Quran 22:38 Allah loveth not any that is a traitor to the faith
Quran 11:118-199 says that Allah does not bestow mercy on everyone. He chooses not to guide some people (people are unequal).
For those whom Allah does not love, there will be the most terrible of torments, including eternal burning:
Quran 4:56 Those who reject our Signs, We shall soon cast into the Fire: as often as their skins are roasted through, We shall change them for fresh skins, that they may taste the penalty: for Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise.
Quran 2:98 Allah is the enemy of the unbelievers.
Non-Muslims are Destined for Eternal Torture in Hell
There are over 400 verses that describe the torment that he has prepared for non-Muslims:
Quran 3:85
And whoever desires a religion other than Islam, it shall not be accepted from him, and in the hereafter he shall be one of the losers.
Quran 3:10
Those who reject Islam;
Neither their possessions nor their progeny will avail them.
They are themselves but fuel for the Fire (according to Shakir, they are the “firewood of hell”)
In Christianity, punishment in the hereafter is directly tied to sin and wickedness. Little is said about Hell, but the emphasis is on personal suffering for selfish or cruel deeds. In Islam, Hell is a punishment for merely not believing in Islam--for not being Muslim. In contrast to the Bible, every 12th verse of the Quran speaks of Hell and vividly describes Allah’s wrath on unbelievers (non-Muslims):
Quran 22:19-22
As for those who disbelieve, garments of fire will be cut out for them;
Boiling fluid will be poured down on their heads,
What is within their bellies, as well as their skin, will be scalded;
And for them are iron rods to punish them
Every time they wish to get away from the anguish
They will be force back therein
And it will be said: “Taste the penalty of Burning”
Allah Prevents Non-Muslims from Understanding:
Allah never gives the people he hates an opportunity to avoid his wrath. The Quran says that Allah deliberately puts obstacles in the way of unbelievers to keep them from accepting the truth. Then, for not accepting the Truth he punishes them.
If Allah wished, he could provide guidance to every soul:
Quran 32:13
If We had so willed, We could certainly have brought every soul its true guidance.
But, instead Allah sets a veil over the hearts and coverings over their ears:
Quran 18:57 Verily We have set veils over their hearts lest they should understand this, and over their ears, deafness, if thou callest them to guidance, even then will they never accept guidance.
Quran 17:46
We put coverings over their hearts and minds so they should not understand the Quran;
And deafness into their ears when thou dost commemorate they Lord and Him alone—in the Quran.
They turn their backs fleeing from the Truth.
Allah even uses barriers to prevent unbelievers from believing:
Quran 36:7-10
The word is proved true against the greater part of them;
For they do not believe.
We have put yokes round their necks right up to their chins
So that their heads are forced up and they cannot see.
And we have put a bar in front of them and a bar behind them,
And further, we have covered them up so that they cannot see.
And whether you warn them or warn them not: they do not believe.
For the same purpose, Allah also fills the hearts of unbelievers with doubt:
Quran 10:100
No soul can believe except by the Will of Allah
And He will place doubt on those who will not understand …
Quran 4:88 (regarding the hypocrites—those who turn their back on jihad)
About the hypocrites?
Allah hath upset them for their evil deeds.
Would ye guide those whom Allah hath thrown out of the Way?
For those who Allah hath thrown out of the Way never shalt thou find the Way.
Allah Causes Non-Muslims to Sin on purpose:
Not only does Allah prevent non-Muslims from knowing the Truth (which is enough to condemn them to Hell) the Quran says that a hateful Allah also causes unbelievers to commit the very sin that he will later punish them for:
Quran 16:93
If Allah so willed it, He would certainly make you a single nation,
But He leaves straying who He pleases and He guides whom he pleases,
but ye will certainly be called to account for all your actions
It is Allah who causes non-Muslems to err.
Quran 4:143 and 74:31
… Whom Allah causes to err—never will find a way for him.
Quran 74:31
And we have set none but angels as guardians of the Fire
And we have fixed their numbers …
Only as a trial for Unbelievers in order that the People of the Book may arrive
... and that those in whose hearts is a disease and the Unbelievers may say:
What symbol doth Allah intend by this?
Thus Allah leaves those to stray whom He pleases and He guides whom He pleases
Allah intentionally sends the people that he hates astray:
Quran 45:23
…and Allah sendeth him astray purposely, and seals up his hearing and his heart …
Allah sends demons to inspire non-Muslims to commit further bad deeds (that he can later hold against them).
According to verse 3:54 Allah plots and schemes against non-Muslims using deceit (the Arabic word makara is used which means deceit). Translators use the English word planners but it is literally interpreted as Allah is the best of deceivers (or lying). Either way, Allah is a plotter and schemer against non-Muslims. It depends on the translator or interpreter. Some say Allah is the best at deceiving. Here’s the verse:
Quran 3:54
And the unbelievers plotted and planned
And Allah, too, planned (or deceived)
The best of planners/deceivers is Allah
Elsewhere in the Quran it explains that Allah tricks non-Muslims into thinking that they are doing good deeds, when they are actually deepening their own eternal punishment with bad deeds:
Quran 27:4
As to those who do not believe in the Hereafter (as per the Quran)
We have made their deeds pleasing in their eyes,
So that they blindly wonder on.
Repeatedly Allah states that he chooses not to guide non-Muslims to the right path. But he also repeated damns non-Muslims to torture and suffering because they don’t follow the right path. The passages directing them to suffering are included in the first section of this page, but the following shows how he chose to let them wonder and be unguided and doomed to suffer.
Quran 39:23
Such is the guidance of Allah that He guides therewith whom He pleases,
But such as Allah leaves to stray, they can have none to guide them.
Quran 6:39
Who Allah wills He leaves to wander.
And who Allah wills He places on the path that is Straight.
Quran 35:8
Who is rightly guided?
Allah leaves to stray who He wills,
And He guides who He wills.
Quran 13:27
The unbelievers say: Why is not a sign sent down to him from his Lord?
Say (to them): Truly Allah leaves to stray whom He wills
Quran 14:4
Now Allah leaves straying those whom He pleases,
And He guides whom He pleases,
And He is exalted in Power.
Allah recruits Satan to join Him into fooling non-Muslims into thinking that they are doing good:
Quran 6:43
Satan made their (sinful) acts seem alluring to them.
The joke is on non-Muslims who will protest on Judgment Day that they did everything they thought was right yet they are sent to hell anyway:
Quran 16:28-29
Then would they offer submission with the pretense "We did no evil knowingly."
The angels will reply, "Nay, but verily Allah knows all that ye did; so enter the gates of Hell to dwell therein.
Those outside of Islam are in actuality helpers of evil against Allah: Quran 25:55 The Misbeliever is a helper of Evil against his own Lord!
The Quran says that "hostility and hate" will exist between Muslims and infidels (non-Muslims) "forever" until the infidels "believe in Allah alone." Quran 60:4
The Quran specifically addresses Christians, Jews, Polytheists (Hindus) and atheists:
Christians are disbelievers (98:6-7) and blasphemers (5:16-21) (5:73) who have invented a lie about Allah (10:68-69) by ascribing partners to Allah (i.e. the Trinity). Inventing a lie about Allah is the worst of sins (7:37) (29:68) and for this reason Christians are condemned to Hell (10:70).
Although one verse seems to say that righteous Christians will go to heaven, this is abrogated (cancelled) by later verses that make it very clear that Christians must cease being Christian (ie. reject the Trinity) or suffer eternal torment for their beliefs (5:72-73).
Jews are also cursed by Allah (5:13) in one of his final pronouncements. The Quran goes on to assure Muslims that Jews are wicked (4:160-162); so wicked that they have somehow managed to do the impossible (18:27) and alter the word of Allah (2:75). Jews are “fond of lies” and “devour the forbidden” (5:42).
The Quran assures believers that Jews and Christians have “diseased hearts” (5:52). Allah even takes credit for the enmity between them (5:14). Only Jews and Christians who submit to Islamic subjugation and pay the Jizya (tax for not being Moslem) are protected in this world (9:29) (Hadith Ibn Ishaq 956).
Hindus are considered to be polytheists. Although Mohammad didn’t know any Hindus (and neither did Allah, apparently) the Quran still manages to lay the groundwork for the 1000 year ethnic cleansing campaign against the Hindu people that is estimated to have taken tens of millions of innocent lives. In Islam, polytheists are worse than all other religion. Those who join idols (14:30) or false gods (11:14) to Allah also invent a lie about Him (29:17) and will burn in Hell. Even believing in other divine entities along with Allah is an unforgivable crime (4:48) (40:12). The Quran, speaks of Jihad instead: Listen not to the unbelievers, but strive (Jihad) against them with the utmost harshness (25:52).
What is the point in hearing anything a non-Moslem has to say or even talk with them for Allah has already sealed their hearts and condemned them to Hell: As for the Disbelievers, Whether thou warn them or thou warn them not it is all one for them; they believe not. Allah hath sealed their hearing and their hearts, and on their eyes there is a covering. Theirs will be an awful doom (2:6).
The Quran Says that People of Other Religions are to be Violently Punished in This World
Allah himself fights against the unbelievers (9:30) so why should Muslims not fight in his cause rather than in the cause of evil (4:76). About 19% of the Quran is devoted to the violent conquest and subjugation of non-Muslims: Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power, including steeds of war, to strike terror into (the hearts of) the enemies of Allah and your enemies and others besides, whom ye may not know (8:60). Strive hard (Jihad) against the Unbelievers and the Hypocrites, and be firm against them. Their abode is Hell--an evil refuge indeed (66:9) (See also 9:73).
Unbelievers should be punished in this life as well: …He whom Allah sends astray, for him there is no guide. For them is a penalty in the life of this world, but harder, truly, is the penalty of the Hereafter… (13:33-34).
There are at least two places in the Quran where the violent death of non-Muslims is referred to as Allah's reward for unbelief (2:191) (9:26), as in "such is the reward for unbelievers." Verse 3:56 states that "those who reject faith" will be "punished with terrible agony in this world" (a vow that Mohammad and his companions personally took it upon themselves to fulfill).
The Quran tells Muslims that Allah uses them to violently punish others: Fight them, Allah will punish them by your hands and bring them to disgrace... (9:14).
In the end all beings on heaven and earth will be forced to bow down to Allah either willingly or by force: And unto Allah falls prostrate whosoever is in the heavens and the earth, willingly or unwillingly (13:15).
Muslims are told that Allah "loves those who fight in his way" to make Islam "victorious over all other religions, even though the disbelievers resist" (61:4-11). Those who do resist Islam will be humiliated: Those who resist Allah and His Messenger will be among those most humiliated (58:20). The context for this verse is the eviction of the Jewish tribes of Medina and the confiscation of their wealth, land, and children by Mohammad).
Non-Muslims are to be fought until religion is only for Allah: And fight them until there is no more ftna (unbelief, worshipping others beside Allah), and religion is all for Allah… (8:39). Some translate the word "fitna" as “persecution”, but in this context it means resistance to Islam – defined in the prior verse as an unwillingness to believe (see verse 38). This passage was “revealed” following a battle that Mohammad deliberately provoked. Verse 2:193 essentially says the same thing and was also “revealed” at a time when the Muslims were not under physical attack.
Those with "diseased hearts" - which include Christians and Jews according to (5:52) are to be "seized wherever found and slain with a (fierce) slaughter" (33:60-62) along with "hypocrites" (Muslims who are judged not to be true believers by their associations with unbelievers or their unwillingness to engage in Jihad).
Non-Muslims are to be encroached on, pressured and punished by the Muslims: See they not that We gradually reduce the land (in their control) from its outlying borders? (13:41) (see also 21:44). We shall punish them gradually from directions they perceive not (68:44).
And He made you heirs to their land and their dwellings and their property, and (to) a land which you have not yet trodden, and Allah has power over all things (33:27) (see also Hadith Bukhari 53:392).
Allah will grant Muslims authority and power over all other people:
Allah has promised, to those among you who believe and work righteous deeds, that He will, of a surety, grant them in the land, inheritance (of power), as He granted it to those before them; that He will establish in authority their religion... (24:55). (Mohammad's companions continued to self-fulfill this prophecy with an aggressive and senseless military expansion that left a trail of bodies from Spain to India).
Allah provides instructions to Muslims for dealing with unbelievers who are unwilling to accept Islamic rule: Remember thy Lord inspired the angels (with the message): "I am with you: give firmness to the Believers: I will instill terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers: smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off them." This because they contended against Allah and His Messenger: If any contend against Allah and His Messenger, Allah is strict in punishment (8:12-13).
Remember that the Quran says that not all men are equal according to Islam. This even applies to Muslims with regard to their aggressiveness toward unbelievers. Those who kill or are killed on behalf of Islam are more pleasing to Allah: Not equal are those of the believers who sit at home... and those who strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allah with their wealth and lives (4:95).
According to the Quran, non-Muslims: Eat like beasts 47:12 Are apes 7:166, 5:60, 2:65 Are swines 5:60 Are asses 74:50 The vilest of animals in Allah's sight 8:55 Losers 2:27, 2:121, 3:85 Have a disease in their hearts 2:10, 5:52, 24:50 Are hard-hearted 39:22, 57:16 Impure of hearts 5:41 Are deaf 2:171, 6:25 Are blind 2:171, 6:25 Are dumb 2:171, 6:35, 11:29 Are niggardly 4:37, 70:21 Works shall be rendered ineffective 2:217, 47:1, 47:8 Are impure 8:37 Are scum 13:17 Are inordinate 5:68, 78:22 Are transgressors 2:26, 9:8, 46:20 Are unjust 29:49 Make mischief 16:88 Are the worst of men 98:6 Are in a state of confusion 50:5 Are the lowest of the low 95:5 Focus only on outward appearance 19:73-74 Are guilty 30:12, 77:46 Sinful liars 45:7 Follow falsehood 47:3 Deeds are like the mirage in a desert 24:39 also... Allah does not love them 3:32, 22:38 Allah forsakes them 32:14, 45:34 Allah brought down destruction upon them 47:10 Allah has cursed them 2:88, 48:6 Allah despises them 17:18 Allah abases them 22:18
Since 9/11 terrorism in the name of Allah occurs in:
India and the Sudan and Algeria and New York and Pakistan and Israel and Russia and Chechnya and the Philippines and Indonesia and Nigeria and England and Thailand and Spain and Egypt and Bangladesh and Saudi Arabia and Turkey and Morocco and Yemen and Arkansas and France and Uzbekistan and Gaza and Tunisia and Kosovo and Bosnia and Mauritania and Kenya and Eritrea and Syria and Somalia and California and Kuwait and Virginia and Ethiopia and Georgia and Jordan and United Arab Emirates and Louisiana and Texas and Tanzania and Illinois and Australia and Pennsylvania and Belgium and Denmark and East Timor and Qatar and Maryland and Tajikistan and the Netherlands and Afghanistan and Chad and Canada and China and Nepal and the Maldives and Argentina and Mali and Angola and the Ukraine and Uganda and North Carolina and Germany and Arizona and Lebanon and Iran and Kazakhstan and Sweden and Azerbaijan and Iraq and Scotland and Macedonia and Bulgaria and Cameroon and Massachusetts ... and pretty much wherever Islam is taken seriously: "O ye who believe! Fight those of the disbelievers who are near to you, and let them find harshness in you, and know that Allah is with those who keep their duty ( 9:123).
This is not a complete list of all verses teaching violence and hatred, but long enough to clearly see that Moslems are taught to dislike, distrust and hate non-Muslims and that Muslims are instructed to execute non-Muslims. These types of verses can be found throughout the entire Quran.
