Explain to me how Islam is a peaceful religion

[Empire]

Well you better watch that Video It Will Help Alot Of Understanding Muslims....
These Rumors Around The World Is All Fake.... You Didn't Watch Real Muslims On Youtube How They Act And What They Do...
You Just See a Fake Pictures... Andd.. Who Said all muslims is terrorists?

In United States There are Alot Of Killers That Means All US Is Killers? Nope
There are Alot Of Good Jews That Means All Jews Is good? Hell No

Kind of irrelevant to the topic but to address this very simply:

Islam is not a religion of peace because it promotes war.

Terrorism is an entirely different topic but also simplified:

If people use a religion for their actions people will always look at the confirmation through that religion.

If there is evidence then that is proof. Learning how things work does not mean that God doesn't create it. Islam says God created everything and has told Muslims to go learn about how things work. Islam teaches heavily the importance of seeking knowledge:

"Are those who have knowledge and those who have no knowledge alike? Only the men of understanding are mindful. " (Quran, 39:9)

"Verily, the reward is equal to intellect."

"The most perfect of men in intellect is the best of them in ethics."

"Intellect is the pillar of man."

"Intellect is the guide of the believer."

"The perfection of intellect is in three (things): humbleness for Allah, good certainty, and silence except for good."

"Ignorance is in three (things): Haughtiness, the intense of dispute, and the ignorance in Allah."

"To consider knowledge very much opens intellect."

"Knowledge is a shield, truthfulness is might, ignorance is abasement, understanding is glory, generosity is success, good behavior causes friendship, he who has knowledge about his time, ambiguous things do not attack him, and determination is mistrust."

"Whoever attacks a matter without knowledge cuts off his own nose."

"Verily, knowledge is a lock and its key is the question."

Imam Jaffar Al Sadiq

Big Bang Theory - Proposed by Georges Lemaître, a Roman Catholic priest who was an astronomer.
Theory of Evolution - Proposed by Charles Darwin, who was a Christian at the time.
Invention of the first vaccine - Edward Jenner, a Christian.
Invention of the first antibiotic - Alexander Fleming, a Christian.
Discovery of Gravity - Isaac Newton, considered to be the greatest mathematician of all time and also was a Christian.

The idea that religious people are anti-science and they can't learn how things work because they believe God creates everything, is just atheistic propaganda spread by people such as Richard Dawkins. I repeat, learning how things work does not disprove that God created it.

I'm not saying God didn't create stuff, I'm saying the nature of science is God is too simple of an answer. You clearly didn't read anything that I wrote. You're anti science when you settle for God. Science isn't about finding answers, it's about movement. It's a pascal wager, which has much higher yielding results than religion does. It's pointing yourself in a direction and walking down the line infinitely similar to religion. The moment you stop moving and claim that God is the answer to something that hasn't been figured out yet, you've stopped following scientific doctrine. If you've noticed all the examples of religious scientist you've posted are pretty fucking old. The philosophy has science has been upgraded since the 20th century.

If I'll say Jesus Christ mean that I'm christ? hell no.


Nowadays words " Allah huakbar" used by many religion. It's doesn't mean they're Muslim.

Interesting.
What about the Russian terrorists who disguised themselves as Chechen back in the days and terrorised Russian politicians using the term 'Allahu Akbar' and 'La illahi illalah' constantly? This did not even get enough media attention.

Secondly, if they decapitated a person, and started screaming Jesus all day long, would that make them Christians?
They might be Christians, yes, but their actions are never close to being allowed in Christianity, and thus they shouldn't use the Christian name for that, but they did, does not make them nor their action accepted by Christianity.

First off I want to say(for the thousandth time) you are misunderstanding the premise.

Person A follows X religion.(is labeled accordingly)

Person A commits a crime, going against said religious doctrine.

Person A still follows X religion though, so they are still labeled accordingly.
-------------------------------Now here is where what you don't understand----------------

Person B follows follows X religion.

Person B commits a crime in the name of said religion.

Person B is still a follower of said religion
----------------------------------------

Now if there was a Christian doing things in the name of Christianity, we would look at that, still label them a Christian terrorist or in a negative light(like the crusades are), and then proceed to analyze the legitimacy of his claims.

Now if there was a Muslim doing things in the name of Islam, we would look at that, still label them an Islamic terrorist or in a negative light, and then proceed to analyze the legitimacy of his claims.
====================


That clear enough for you? Just because someone commits a crime does not mean they do not follow said religion. It's the "no true scotsman" fallacy and you really should look at why you keep getting told that it is.
