The fourth most common question or misconception that has been in the
minds of non Muslims is that why was Islam spread by the salt?
Islam comes from the root word Salam which means peace. It is
also derived from the Arabic word sin, which means to submit your
will to the will of Allah subhanaw taala. Thus, Islam means peace
acquired by submitting your will, to the will of Allah subhanaw
taala. Islam is the religion of peace. Each and every human being
in this world is not in favor of maintaining peace, there are many
who would want to disrupt it for their own personal gain. This is
precisely the reason why we have the police that needs to use for
sometimes, so that peace and justice will prevail in the
country. Islam exalts its followers towards peace, but
sometimes force has to be used in order for peace and justice to
prevail. So Islam is the religion of peace, but sometimes force has
to be used so that peace and justice will prevail in the
country. And the best reply to the misconception that Islam was
spread by the sword is given by the famous historian de Blasio,
Larry, in his book Islam at the crossroad on page number eight he
says that history makes it clear that the legend of fanatical
Muslims should be across the world, forcing Islam at the point
of the sword is the most fantastically absorbed myth that
historians have ever repeated. We Muslims, we ruled Spain for 800
years. We Muslims ruled Spain for a long duration of time. Yet today
there are many non Muslims who are available in Spain. Later on.
The non Muslims came and they wiped out the Muslims. There was
not a single Muslim who could openly give the other and that is
a call for prayer. We Muslims who are the Lord of Arabia, we will
Arabia for 14 years. For a few years. The French came for a few
years the British came but all Muslims rule Arabia for 14 years.
Yet today in Arabia, there are no less than 9 million items are
Coptic Christians, these 9 million items are Coptic Christians. They
are bearing witness that Islam was not spared by the assault. If you
wanted, you could have converted all of these people at the point
of assault. We didn't do it.
We Muslims with all India for about 1000 years. Yet today, in
India 80% of the Indians, approximately they are non
Muslims. They are bearing witness that Islam was not spared by the
sword. Which Muslim army went to Indonesia, which has the maximum
percentage of Muslims more than 200 million Muslims, which Muslim
army went to Malaysia, which has 63 to 64% Muslims today, which
Muslim army went to the east coast of Africa, which on the reply is
given by Thomas Carlye. In his book, heroes and hero worship this
war indeed, but where will you get your swan? Every new idea
originates in the mind of one, one man against the whole world that
he will propagate his message. You must pick up your swan and
propagate.
What Sorts Thomas Carlyle talking about is he talking about the
swarm of metal and steel. He's talking about the swarm of
intellect, the swirl of reasoning. Even if you had the sword of metal
and steel, we cannot use it. Allah subhanaw taala says in the
Glorious Quran in surah baqarah chapter two verse number 256 law
it could not have been cut who rose to Middle High to stands out
clear from error.
Let there be no compulsion in religion to stands out clear from
error. Allah subhanaw taala says in the Glorious Quran and Sunnah
* chapter 16 verse, Psalm 120 5020 Isla Sebelius applicable
Hikmah Well, the Moria local Hasina, which had the humility
acid in why to do the dialogue with wisdom and beautiful
preachings and argue with them and reason with them in the ways that
our best and most gracious, we cannot force anyone to accept
Islam at the point of the sword or at the point of the gun. And there
was an article published in the Reader's Digest almanac yearbook
1984,
and was reprinted in the plain truth magazine,
which showed the increase of the major world religions from 1934 to
1984. And number one religion was Islam, which increased by 230 5%.
Christianity only 47% Which war took place between 1934 to 1984,
which forced millions of people to accept Islam, which soared. Today,
the fastest growing religion in America is Islam. The fastest
growing religion in Europe is Islam, the fastest growing
religion in the West and Islam. You know, the media says that
Islam subjugates the woman do you know out of those people accepting
Islam, two thirds of them a woman who is forcing these American and
European woman to accept Islam? Why are they accepting Islam?
because they know that Islam has a solution to the problems of
humanity. The more the media malign Islam, the faster it grows.
Dr. Adam Pierson said
that people are worried that one day nuclear weaponry will fall in
the hands of the Arabs. They fail to realize that the Islamic bomb,
the bomb of the religion of peace has already been dropped. It fell,
the day of Muhammad peace be upon him was born.
