    Posted: 07 April 2010 at 5:06pm
Hello, I'm fourteen years old and I am from America and I don't really have a religion, however I wouldn't exactly call myself an athiest either.
 
But I would like to ask this question: Why did Muslims cause 9/11?

Is it because NYC has a large Jewish population?

Exactly why do Muslims hate Jews so much?

Does the religion of Islam teach to kill others that do not follow the religion?
 
I also heard that if a Muslim converts to another religion then they must be killed.
 
Please explain this, thank you.

Waffle: Hello, I'm fourteen years old and I am from America and I don't really have a religion, however I wouldn't exactly call myself an atheist either.
 
But I would like to ask this question:

Waffle: Why did Muslims cause 9/11?
Semar: That's Osama bin Laden. We Muslims condemned the attack, no matter what his reason was.

Waffle: Is it because NYC has a large Jewish population?
Semar: No, in NYC there are a lot of Muslims too.

Waffle: Exactly why do Muslims hate Jews so much?
Semar: Muslims do not hate Jew or any other race or human being. Muslims might not agree to what the Israeli Government does to the Palestinian people in Palestine, but muslims do not hate the Jews people.

Waffle: Does the religion of Islam teach to kill others that do not follow the religion?
Semar: No, Islam do not allow to kill Innocent people for any reason. In the Quran says "Taking one life is like killing the whole humanity and saving one life is like saving the whole humanity, Quran 5:32.
 
Waffle: I also heard that if a Muslim converts to another religion then they must be killed.
Semar: No, we are not allowed to kill anybody just because their religion. The Quran says "Your religion is yours and my religion is mine", Quran 109:6 and "No compulsion in religion", Quran 2:256

Waffle: Please explain this, thank you.

Peace,
 
KKK killed black people for Jesus (please be upon him).  A rober, robed and killed for his young children.
So in these cases are Jesus fault and the children fault?
Salam/Peace,

Welcome Waffle.  Brother Semar pretty much summed up what Islam actually teaches.  I would just like to add that many Muslims died on 9/11 also, murdered by fanatics.  I can attest to this because I attended a memorial service at a local mosque for a brother who died in the WTC.  It was during Friday prayers and the mosque was packed. 
Say: "Truly, my prayer and my service of sacrifice, my life and my death, are (all) for Allah, the Cherisher of the Worlds. (Surat al-Anaam: 162)
