I was impressed that an Arab country is allowing such tolerance. It certainly is not the norm in that part of the world. What was your impression?

It would be helpful if you quoted the words of the verse you reference. I'll do it for you. Whoever disbelieves in Allah after his belief… except for one who is forced [to renounce his religion] while his heart is secure in faith. But those who [willingly] open their breasts to disbelief, upon them is wrath from Allah, and for them is a great punishment. Quran 16:106 I see nothing here saying it is all right to lie or to comply anyone to lie. It does say that Allah {God} will bring punishment. I think you interpretation is not accurate. To me it is like the Bible saying that God will punish those who do not believe. But that is off topic. Did you watch the video? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muslims can show tolerance on outside, but inside still hate the non Muslim, as they expect still Allah to destroy us all in end! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that works both ways. There are many American christians [notice little c] who may show tolerance but hate the Muslim on the inside. Both the muslim and the christian are wrong when they do this as both are violating an important tenet of their religion. However, did you watch the video?

There are passages in the Koran that tells Muslims that Allah states that they are to smile and talk peace on outside, but to keep Jihad in their hearts, as Allah will one day destroy all unbelievers!

Members SureWord Posted August 1, 2020 Members Share Posted August 1, 2020 Taqiya is the practice of dissimulation within mostly in Shia Islam although Sunnis (Muda'rat) can also under certain situations. Kitman, Tawriya, Muruna are also other terms used for justified lying around anyone who isn't Muslim. These are touched on in the Quran but are mostly all taught in the Hadith i.e. the sayings of Muhammad which Islamic jurisprudence is built upon. And also, Christians do not want to lie to and murder Muslims and send them to hell like the other way around. This is not considered a good thing to do to "infidels" like it is in Islam.

From the research I have done this does not appear in the Qur'an. It appears in Ibn Kathir's writings. He lived in the 14th century. Ibn Kathir was an influetncial historian. So, if my research is correct it is an error to attribute this verse to the Qur'an. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
