Dear maybe you are non muslim but i think the real answer is below and it is God words through Muhammad peace upon on him.\n\nYUSUFALI: Those whom Allah (in His plan) willeth to guide,- He openeth their breast to Islam; those whom He willeth to leave straying,- He maketh their breast close and constricted, as if they had to climb up to the skies: thus doth Allah (heap) the penalty on those who refuse to believe. \nPICKTHAL: And whomsoever it is Allah's will to guide, He expandeth his bosom unto the Surrender, and whomsoever it is His Will to send astray, He maketh his bosom close and narrow as if he were engaged in sheer ascent. Thus Allah layeth ignominy upon those who believe not. \nSHAKIR: Therefore (for) whomsoever Allah intends that He would guide him aright, He expands his breast for Islam, and (for) whomsoever He intends that He should cause him to err, He makes his breast strait and narrow as though he were ascending upwards; thus does Allah lay uncleanness on those who do not believe.

I generally despise Bible quotes as answers, but I think this one might be appropriate:\n\n(Exodus 32:27-29) and Moses told them, "Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: Put your sword on your hip, everyone of you!  Now go up and down the camp, from gate to gate, and slay your kinsmen, your friends and neighbors!"  The Levites carried out the command of Moses, and that day there fell about three thousand of the people.  Then Moses said, "Today you have dedicated to the Lord, for you were against your own sons and kinsmen, to bring a blessing upon yourselves this day."\n\nMoses had 3,000 of his own people executed in one day.  What a wonderful person.  We should all be just like him ...\n\n... or maybe not.

The prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said it was the duty of every muslim to be educated so muslims could believe that by studying and seeking knowledge they are fulfilling an obligation they have to Allah as Muslims so it probably would lead to education.

i really dont know what it is said in your beleifs, but in mine it says the following\n\n\n"The Messiah, son of Mary, was no other than a messenger, messengers (the like of whom) had passed away before him. And his mother was a saintly woman. And they both used to eat (earthly) food. See how We make the revelations clear for them, and see how they are turned away! "\n\n005.075 \n\n\n" They indeed have disbelieved who say: Lo! Allah is the Messiah, son of Mary. Say: Who then can do aught against Allah, if He had willed to destroy the Messiah son of Mary, and his mother and everyone on earth? Allah's is the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them. He createth what He will. And Allah is Able to do all things. "\n\n005.017 \n\n\nThe Holy Qur'an\n\n\nyes he is The Messiah, yes he is a prophet from almighty God and a wise man because almighty God gifted him with wisdom.\n\n\nanswering more of your question, No he didnt die on the cross the people that were after him to kill him found someone that looked alike to Jesus but was never Jesus, almighty God raised Jesus to the upper heavens\n\n\ni quote for you more from the Holy Qur'an\n\n"That they said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah";- but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not:- "\n\n004.157 \n\n\n\ni really hope that answered your question

Muhammad was born around 570 C.E. in Mecca into the powerful Quraysh tribe and the respected Banu Hashim clan.  Muhammad was orphaned at a young age and so he had different caretakers throughout his formative years.  His father, Abdallah ibn Abd al-Muttalib, died before Muhammad was born and his mother Amina died when he was only six years old.  His grandfather Abd al-Muttalib took over his care, but died two years later.  From then on, Muhammad was cared for by his uncle Abu Talib.  \nMuhammad started out as a shepherd, but he eventually became a merchant.  In his twenties, he met Khadija, a wealthy widow, and became the manager of her caravan.  She was impressed with him because of his integrity and success as a merchant, so she proposed to him, and he accepted.  This marriage greatly improved Muhammad’s financial situation and may be considered somewhat of a turning point for him as up until that time he was a humble orphan.\nMuhammad grew to be concerned with some of the practices he observed among his fellow Arabs.  Some of the pre-Islamic Arabs buried infant girls alive, apparently to avert economic hardship and to avoid the risk of the daughter developing a bad reputation, which would be a scar on the family.  As an orphan, it is no wonder that Muhammad felt a special compassion for these infants, other orphans, widows, the poor, and other social outcasts.  \nMuhammad took to retreating on a regular basis to Mount Hira, where he would meditate inside of a cave.  It is here during one of these retreats that Muhammad the Prophet was born.  He began to receive revelations which frightened him terribly at first.  A voice told him that he was the messenger of God and eventually the presence revealed itself as the angel Gabriel.  Gabriel instructed Muhammad, “Recite!”  Muhammad objected that he was unable to recite, but when Gabriel insisted, he asked, “What shall I recite?”  Then Gabriel revealed to him the very first verses of what would come to be known as the Qur’an, meaning “recitation.”  Muhammad thereafter continued to receive verses until he died.\nHis wife Khadija believed in Muhammad’s message, and soon a few others also converted to the new religion of submission to Allah.  But by and large, in the early years of his Prophethood, the people of Mecca were angered by his teachings.  He criticized the religion of their fathers and had it not been for the protection of his uncle Abu Talib, Muhammad may have been greatly persecuted.  In fact the rest of the Muslims, who were mostly of lower classes, were persecuted to the extent that many emigrated to Abyssinia.  \nIn 619, Abu Talib died, leaving Muhammad without a protector.  His supportive wife Khadijah also died this same year.  These challenges and tragedies in his life did not deter the Prophet, and he continued to receive guidance from Allah.  In one of the most celebrated events of Muhammad’s life, he was sleeping near the Ka’ba when he saw the angel Gabriel come.  The angel cut Muhammad open, removed his heart and entrails, washed them in a golden basin, and placed them back into his body.  Then Gabriel brought Buraq, a magical horse, who took Muhammad on a journey through the sky to Jerusalem.  From there he was taken up through the seven heavens where he reached God Himself.  \nSome men from the city of Yathrib came to Mecca for the pilgrimage in 620, where they met Muhammad and were impressed with him.  They needed a strong leader who could arbitrate in their city, where the tribes were at war.  These men embraced Islam and invited Muhammad to be their leader.  In the year 622, several Muslims emigrated to Yathrib, which came to be known as Medina.  Muhammad himself escaped death to travel to Medina in that same year which was so pivotal that it marked the start of the Islamic calendar.  \nThis move was so important because it was in Medina that an authentic Muslim community, the umma could be established away from the danger of Mecca.

But if the murdered Muslim belonged to a people who are at enmity with you, then the expiation shall be the freeing of one believing slave; and if the slain person belonged to a non-Muslim ally of yours, then the blood-money must be paid to his heirs ( 123 ) and a believing slave has to be set free. But if one could not afford a slave, then he must fast two consecutive months. ( 124 ) This is the way enjoined by Allah for repentance; ( 125 ) Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise.

Good question:\n\nMaybe Society or people in general.  Also, if its a quote it could just mean that you dont know who originally said it.

No. To protect the Shiites from getting annihilated by the Sunnies. It was predicted in the Koran by Prophet himself, as revealed to him.

the verse you picked meant that at war times when Muslims were fought by Kuffar (those doesn't believe in Islam and pray for Status considering them as GODs) ..\n\nSo those Kuffar used to kill Muslims wherever they find them .. get them out of their homes .. torture them .. so Allah (GOD in Arabic) tells Muslims not to be merciful with them ..\n\nAs for Christians and Jews in Quran they are called "People of the Scripture" .. not unbelievers ..\n\nAfter all the basics of Islam is to believe in all messengers sent by Allah including Jesus and Moses (as they are considered as messengers in Islam just like Muhammad) .. and to believe in all his sent scriptures (holy books) which are Quran , Bible and Torah (but not the nowadays Bible and Torah as they are considered corrupted now and not containing the original script sent by Allah) ..\n\nI hope i answered your question .. best wishes ..

As salaamu alaikum wa rahmatullah.\n\nInsha'Allah, the answer is simple. By definition, a Muslim leaves Islam when he worships anyone or anything other than Allah. So, the answer is that he is no longer a Muslim once he worships a statue (of anything). We're not allowed to worship MUHAMMAD himself, let alone a statue of him. :)\n\nAnd, so of course, no, we cannot support that individual who made the statue in any sense.

Al-Islam\n\n آمَنَ الرَّسُولُ بِمَا أُنزِلَ إِلَيْهِ مِن رَّبِّهِ وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ كُلٌّ آمَنَ بِاللّهِ وَمَلآئِكَتِهِ وَكُتُبِهِ وَرُسُلِهِ لاَ نُفَرِّقُ بَيْنَ أَحَدٍ مِّن رُّسُلِهِ وَقَالُواْ سَمِعْنَا وَأَطَعْنَا غُفْرَانَكَ رَبَّنَا وَإِلَيْكَ الْمَصِيرُ   Listen to this ayat (verse)\n\n2.285 . The messenger believeth in that which hath been revealed unto him from his Lord and ( so do ) the believers . Each one believeth in Allah and His angels and His scriptures and His messengers We make no distinction between any of His messengers and they say : We hear , and we obey .

It's probably from Aesop's Fables. That's where most quotes like that come from.

No i dont, he never said something that was false he was a messenger from almighty God to all mankind.\n\n\n" And Muhammad is no more than a messenger; the messengers have already passed away before him; if then he dies or is killed will you turn back upon your heels? And whoever turns back upon his heels!s, he will by no means do harm to Allah in the least and Allah will reward the grateful. "\n\nthe Holy Qur'an\n\n\nmore of it replying back on the racist answers here\n\n" Quite a number of the People of the Book wish they could Turn you (people) back to infidelity after ye have believed, from selfish envy, after the Truth hath become Manifest unto them: But forgive and overlook, Till Allah accomplish His purpose; for Allah Hath power over all things. "\n\n002.109 \n\n\n\nNote: asking this question and saying you want only non muslims to answer is really bad because in this case you will see all negative and hater answers, i hope this was not what you wanted to see.
