I believe the following "quotes"... speak for themselves. =(
[2:205]
As soon as he leaves, he roams the earth corruptingly, destroying properties and lives. GOD does not love corruption.
[2:206]
When he is told, "Observe GOD," he becomes arrogantly indignant. Consequently, his only destiny is Hell; what amiserable abode.
[2:207]
Then there are those who dedicate their lives to serving GOD; GOD is compassionate towards such worshipers.
[2:208]
O you who believe, you shall embrace total submission; do
not follow the steps of Satan, for he is your most ardent enemy.
[8:73]
Those who disbelieved are allies of one another. Unless you keep these commandments, there will be chaos on earth, and terrible corruption.
[8:74]
Those who believed and emigrated, and strove in the cause
of GOD, as well as those who hosted them and gave them refuge, and supported them, these are the true
believers. They have deserved forgiveness and a generous recompense.
[17:14]
Read your own record. Today, you suffice as your own reckoner.
[17:15]
Whoever is guided, is guided for his own good, and whoever goes astray does so to his own detriment.
No
sinner will bear the sins of anyone else. We never punish
without first sending a messenger.
[17:16]
If we are to annihilate any community, we let the leaders
commit vast corruption therein. Once they deserve retribution, we annihilate it completely.
[17:17]
Many a generation have we annihilated after Noah.
[28:83]
We reserve the abode of the Hereafter for those who do not seek exaltation on earth, nor corruption. The
ultimate victory belongs to the righteous.
Human Rights
Islam protects all noble values and
human rights. Freedom, equality, justice, and the right to life, liberty, and
security of person are of prime concern in Islamic law. "Whosoever kills a
human being for other than manslaughter or corruption in the earth,
it shall be as if he had killed all mankind, and whosoever saves the life of
one, it shall be as if he had saved the life of all mankind..." Qur'an
5:32. Islam places great emphasis on social justice. It opposes all those who
exploit, oppress and deal unjustly with people. " O ye who believe: Be
steadfast witnesses for Allah in equity and let not hatred of any people seduce
you that you deal not justly. Be just; that is nearer to piety". Qur'an
5:8.
And another interpretation:
[5:32]
Because of this, we decreed for the Children of Israel
that anyone who murders any person who had not committed
murder or horrendous crimes, it shall be as if he
murdered all the people. And anyone who spares a life, it
shall be as if he spared the lives of all the people. Our
messengers went to them with clear proofs and
revelations, but most of them, after all this, are still
transgressing.
My question to the honest Muslim is:
Who decides?
Who is the judge of
what qualifies as
"corruption in the earth"?
More QUotes
Qur'an [7:37]
Who is more evil than those who invent lies about GOD, or reject His revelations? These will get their share, in
accordance with the scripture, then, when our messengers come to terminate their lives,
[3:157]
Whether you get killed or die in the cause of GOD, the
forgiveness from GOD, and mercy are far better than
anything they hoard.
Qur'an [2:6-9]
As for those who disbelieve, it is the same for them; whether you warn them, or not warn them, they cannot
believe. GOD seals their minds and their hearing, and their eyes are veiled. They have incurred
severe retribution. Then there are those who say, "We believe in GOD and the
Last Day," while they are not believers. In trying to deceive GOD and those who believe, they only
deceive themselves without perceiving.
=)
[4:93]
Anyone who kills a believer on purpose, his retribution
is Hell, wherein he abides forever, GOD is angry with
him, and condemns him, and has prepared for him a
terrible retribution.
[5:30]
His ego provoked him into killing his brother.
He killed him, and ended up with the losers.
[4:29...]
You shall not kill yourselves.
