And Al-Fitnah [disbelief] is worse than killing... but if they desist, then lo! Allah is forgiving and merciful. And fight them until there is no more Fitnah [disbelief and worshipping of others along with Allah] and worship is for Allah alone. But if they cease, let there be no transgression except against Az-Zalimun (the polytheists, and wrong-doers, etc.)" (Translation is from the Noble Quran) Quran (4:89) - "They but wish that ye should reject Faith, as they do, and thus be on the same footing (as they): But take not friends from their ranks until they flee in the way of Allah (From what is forbidden). But if they turn renegades, seize them and slay them wherever ye find them; and (in any case) take no friends or helpers from their ranks."
Also Muhammed got his start in the field of warfare by butchering Jewish villages. |
1- " And kill them wherever you overtake them and expel them from wherever they have expelled you, and fitnah is worse than killing. And do not fight them at al-Masjid al- Haram until they fight you there. But if they fight you, then kill them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers."
The two bolded line clearly shows that this is all an act of self defence.
2- Again, you need to understand the historical fram of the event. "flee in the way of Allah" is a refrence to famous immigration that heppen when muslimes were slaughtered and expelled from their homeland Maka. The Surah is talking about a group of people who pretended to be muslims but they actually fight Islam from within the Islamic soicity. They are recongized by not immegrating to Madina. Again self defence.
3- The prophet actually have let go of the war prisoners, that's why the Surah says that he shouldn't have prisoned and freed them in the first place, because they will just fight you again.
4- Not true
I encourage you to read about the history of prophet Muhammad, He never started a war, not even once. All of the "violent passages" describe a time of war, in which Muslims were always defending themselves.
Edit: How any of that is even comparable to what ISIS is doing ?, they are just killing everone who isn't like them, even muslims.
