fROM Waseem:
 [quote] “And slay them wherever ye find them …” [Baqarah (2): 191] [/quote]

The above unfortunately is often quoted by non Muslims. Regrettably, without citing the full context is a mischievous misrepresentation of the Quranic message. Unfortunately amny Muslim buy into this nonsense. You can take anything out of a text and give it a opposite meaning the intended one. The full context makes it abundantly clear that such slaying is sensible only when the Muslims are at war with a non-Muslim group. Although I have already gone through this before here is the full verses giving this full context are as follows:
“Fight in the way of God against those who fight against you, but initiate not aggression. Verily God loveth not aggressors. And slay them wherever ye find them, and drive them out of the places wherefrom they drove you out, for persecution is worse than slaughter. And fight not with them at the Sacred Mosque until they first attack you there, but if they attack you (there), then slay them. Such is the reward of disbelievers. But if they desist, then verily God is Ever Forgiving, Most Merciful. And fight them until there is no more persecution, and religion is for God. But if they desist, let there be no hostility except against the wrongdoers.” [Baqarah (2): 190-193]

I am surPrised that you should accept this anti Quranic propoganda. READ THE WHOLE TEXT AGAIN.[/quote]
