People of the West nowadays are addicted in a sense to this propaganda that Islam is a religion of terrorists, or maybe, THE religion of terrorists. And they refer to the word Jihad accusing the Muslims of killing innocent people in the name of Allah. The interesting fact is, about 45%-60% of the Americans have never spoken to a Muslim about Islam. They only see what they are shown, believe what they are told to, and of course, speak what they are instructed to. Now on the basis of what am I saying that? I must be living on Mars these days, as a result, I do not know about the 9/11 or ISIS ..read more

So here we are, back with another post. This post is linked with the previous post, so I am giving the Hadith to check it out HERE in full.
