[2.194] The Sacred month for the sacred month and all sacred things are (under the law of) retaliation; whoever then acts aggressively against you, inflict injury on him according to the injury he has inflicted on you and be careful (of your duty) to Allah and know that Allah is with those who guard (against evil).

i am not like a scholar of Islam or anything but this saying is like the one an eye for an eye...do not go overboard but if someone punches you in the face you have the right to punch him back but only if he downplayed your religion....see in Islam we are not allowed to do anything violent unless someone is acted against God or Gods will....no when they see posters of Muhammed being made fun of or rude sayings of Allah they feel like they must retailate....i think people are naturally stupid because in every religion God is the almighty and he takes care of all the bad behaived so i wish i could just tell those people don't worry about it alot of you are going ot be killed but at least those who fucking killed you are going to get it worse.

I have a question for any Christians though...im half white and half afghan so i understand both religions and i choose the religion of Islam because i feel that it suceeds Christianity but anyways why is it that you can confess your sins and believe that Jesus died on the Cross for any sin that you may commit...u could kill 14 people rape 12 people and burn a bible but as long as you believe in Jesus and confess ur sins you are okay...well at least this is what a friend told me and he stictly believes it...i asked him about all the people in prison who have committed crimes and he said they will go to heaven.....therefor the only thing you have to do "technically" is be christian to go to heaven no matter what you do on earth...at least thats the way i interpreted as... a reply would be great
