muslim

A person who practices the religion of islam.

Although many people believe islam is a religion of hate, suicide bombers, terrorists, and sexism, this is far from true.

In truth, muslims, who stay true to the Quran are very peaceful. The Quran preaches tolerance and that discrimination based on faith is wrong. Muslims believe that the Christian god, Jesus was a prophet, and thus do not hate him or condemn Christians. Both jews and christians are seen as brothers to muslims, and the religions are connected.

Jihad is not a call to war, but refers to an internal struggle with oneself to do the right thing.

It is not sexist. Actually, during the time of its revelation it provided the most equality. Women cover up based on personal choice, so that people will judge them on their mind, not their bodies. Women were encouraged to have jobs and keep their own money. They were independent from their husbands.

These terrorists you see on the news are NOT muslims. They have twisted the religion into something hateful, similar to what many religious fanatical groups have done with other religions. They are ignorant and are in no way representative of the assimilated and kind muslims throughout the world.

Guy: did you see those crazy muslim terrorists on the news?

other dude: no. those people aren't muslims. Muslims abide by the Quran.
