Re: Why is Islam fastest growing religion?
If I have correctly understood Islam...the Prophet somewhere warned the beleivers....Beware of fake beleivers
How can they include fake Muslims in the grwoing population list of Islam if they really honor the Prophet???
Good point
Re: Why is Islam fastest growing religion?
Indian brain, most Indian like most muslims, I myself have a good number of Indian Muslim friends, but they are nothing like some of you guys???
Watch US media - esp Fox News - that Bill O’Rielly guy (BTW I do not agree with all he chants), it is the most watched cable tv news talk show. US has gotton the real taste of some muslims since 9/11 and see how they have reacted.
Even today they caught 7 in Florida - http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,11069-2240240,00.html. I just cannot believe it, how come mostly Muslims get into this, there must be some answer.
Re: Why is Islam fastest growing religion?
Narayan bhai, Surah talaq is chapter 65 of the quran. Read it carefull, forget about what the news is come up with me. If you want the truth you have to hear it from horses mouth. Thats the Quran, you read it yourself but without any prejudice.
Re: Why is Islam fastest growing religion?
Narayan, I just got a feeling you live in US. You know they dont mind keeping mistresses, they can have 10 sweethearts no one is desperate then only Muslims you find as desperate.
Look please read the Quran and then talk i agree not the news. I can quote so many our own Ministers are they not desperate, can I call them Hindus adn they are desperate.
Common sense yaar.
Re: Why is Islam fastest growing religion?
I am not saying that Quran is bad, what I am saying that people probably mis-interpret it in the ways I listed above and get a reason to convert.
Re: Why is Islam fastest growing religion?
There is no connection of these guys to “Islam” except that they sought Alqaeda help and perhaps have innovated a religion their own by combining Christianity and Islam (read at anther news site)
Re: Why is Islam fastest growing religion?
So if you remove these type of muslims who are not true muslims, then Islam fails to be the fastest growing religion.
When muslim leaders say Islaam is the fastest growing religion they do count these people, but when these people are caught doing something wrong then they say they are not true Muslims.
PS - can anyone give me a link to a site that gives the figure in terms of growth in population of different religion.
Re: Why is Islam fastest growing religion?
They r muslims just misguided ones, so they still muslims unless of course they do shirk.
Re: Why is Islam fastest growing religion?
Immigration and High Birth rates account for most of the growth of Islam in Western countries, while high birth rates alone are the cause in Thirld World countries.
If you claim that growth through converson is highest for Islam then you need to produce some evidence to support this claim.
Here is some data from the World Christian Encyclopedia that shows that Christianity still outconverts Islam by more than 2 to 1.
Re: Why is Islam fastest growing religion?
You are the ppl who are giving us the bad publicity. We are getting a bad name when none of the Pakistani men behave like that..
1. Abortion is a crime- it is killing a life. Life comes as soon as a woman learns she is pregnant. Hence abortion is anti-life! As long as the head of the family can feed his kids, he shud be allowed to have as many kids/wife, he pleases- we have that freedom in Islam- no religion has that!
2. Give me atleast one instance.
3. If you are treating all wives equally, you are allowed to have multiple wives- but remember dont treat one wife better than the other just cuz one is better looking than the other etc.
4. Even muslim men in Pak are little hesistant to say the talaq word three times.. divorce rate is higher in the west than Pakistan!
Re: Why is Islam fastest growing religion?
It is a false propaganda.. :mad: authors of this web-site are no.1 badmash.. we are no.1- there is no doubt!
Re: Why is Islam fastest growing religion?
Perhaps you are right.
But I have NEVER seen any muslim present ANY evidence about actual conversion rates. It’s all hearsay.
Re: Why is Islam fastest growing religion?
We are talking of Islaam and not Pakistan.
Re: Why is Islam fastest growing religion?
Even muslim men in Pak are little hesistant to say the talaq word three times.. divorce rate is higher in the west than Pakistan!
Abortion is crime: Thats good. But no one is talking of abortion here. But family planning is not abortion if thats what you thought.
One instance of what?? If you are talking of abortion, then every religion is against it.
Thats convinient. BTW no one can treat any 2 human beings equally, thats impossible. Only machines might be able to do so.
Ya I know.
Re: Why is Islam fastest growing religion?
There is no doubt in your mind.
But one thing is sure, in US the most conversions to Islaam are happening in prison.
Re: Why is Islam fastest growing religion?
To prove it false you have to give couter evidence dont just say its propaganda.
As per your observation I would not call them badmaash they are biased.
Good you have no doubt.
Now lets prove it as well that we are number 1.
Re: Why is Islam fastest growing religion?
Perhaps…but that’s rathery crappy since Islam has no real missionary activity per se besides downtown Dawah centers in major cities.
Re: Why is Islam fastest growing religion?
The best reply to the misconception that Islam was spread by the sword is given by the noted historian De Lacy O’Leary in the book "Islam at the cross road" (Page 8):
History makes it clear however, that the legend of fanatical Muslims sweeping through the world and forcing Islam at the point of the sword upon conquered races is one of the most fantastically absurd myth that historians have ever repeated."
14 million Arabs are Coptic Christians
Muslims were the lords of Arabia for 1400 years. For a few years the British ruled, and for a few years the French ruled. Overall, the Muslims ruled Arabia for 1400 years. Yet today, there are 14 million Arabs who are Coptic Christians i.e. Christians since generations. If the Muslims had used the sword there would not have been a single Arab who would have remained a Christian
Thomas Carlyle.
The famous historian, Thomas Carlyle, in his book "Heroes and Hero worship", refers to this misconception about the spread of Islam: "The sword indeed, but where will you get your sword? Every new opinion, at its starting is precisely in a minority of one. In one man’s head alone. There it dwells as yet. One man alone of the whole world believes it, there is one man against all men. That he takes a sword and try to propagate with that, will do little for him. You must get your sword! On the whole, a thing will propagate itself as it can."

Increase in the world religions from 1934 to 1984.
An article in Reader’s Digest ‘Almanac’, year book 1986, gave the statistics of the increase of percentage of the major religions of the world in half a century from 1934 to 1984. This article also appeared in ‘The Plain Truth’ magazine. At the top was Islam, which increased by 235%, and Christianity had increased only by 47%. May one ask, which war took place in this century which converted millions of people to Islam?
