Faith and practice: Islamists do not understand the reality of Islam

Because of the distortion of their hearts, today's Islamist clerics wrongly interpret some of the verses of the Holy Qur’an, equate Islamic Jihad to rebellion, and associate self-concocted imprudent beliefs to Islam. [Ahmadiyya Gazette USA]

Islam portrayed as a religion of extremism and terrorism by these suicide

By Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (as) (1835 - 1908) | Excerpt

Contrary to the portrayed beliefs:
“Islam is such a religion, which does not need the support of sword for its propagation. Rather, the inherent excellences of its teachings, its truth, enlightenment, reasoning, arguments, and the active assistance of God the Exalted, the signs, and His personal attention are such matters that always drive its progress and propagation…The message of Islam does not need any compulsion for its propagation…

"To mention that the Ghazis (Islamic veterans of wars) of the Frontier Region raise rebellion in the name of Jihad is an absurd thought, and it is nothing but foolishness and ignorance to call these rebellious people by the name of Ghazi. If an ignorant Muslim harbors even the least amount of sympathy for these people considering them performing Jihad, I tell the truth, that the one who calls a rebellious person ghazi, and praises those who bring a bad name to Islam is an enemy of Islam…


"In England, France and other European countries, Islam is very harshly criticized to have been spread by the use of force… The real truth is that this rebellion has been spread by the Maulvies (Islamic clerics), who are the unwise friends of Islam. They did not understand the reality of Islam, and provided an opportunity to others to raise objections because of their concocted beliefs. The beliefs concocted by them greatly aided the Christians. If they had not deceived others about jihad or misunderstood the meaning of jihad, no one would have taken advantage of the opportunity to criticize Islam."
(Malfoozat, volume 3, p. 176, 177)
