Why Biblical genocide and terrorism is relevant to the topic
of
Why Islam is a religion of peace?
As
we saw in the Is Islam a religion of peace debate, Sam
Shamoun ran away when confronted with the genocide and terrorism of the Bible,
and falsely claimed that it was off topic. The topic of the debate is not
"let's criticize Islam", but rather is "Islam a religion of peace".
Nadir Ahmed is free to produce evidence to support his case from whatever
source he sees fit, from Archaeology, history, hadith, Quran or the Bible. The
Christian ministry has no right to restrict Nadir Ahmed on where he can produce
his evidence.
Nadir
Ahmed pointed out the reason and purpose of why Jihad verses were revealed in
the Quran - to correct Biblical terrorism and genocide. If this argument was
incorrect, then Sam Shamoun should have argued, "no,
these Quran verses do not point to the Bible's verses for correction or should
have argued the Quran is wrong, the Bible does not promote terrorism and
genocide. But he did not.
Many
Quran verses were revealed to correct the teachings of the Bible. One of the
most important aspects of Jihad in Islam, is that it provided a more humane
code of ethics and rules of war time engagement than that of the Christians and
Jews during the life of Prophet Muhammed(P). Sam Shamoun is well aware that
verses of the Quran were revealed to address Biblical teachings. Muslims
should be free to argue this case to show the peacefulness of Islam.
