I am part of a muslim newsletter in work, I joined it a year ago as I was always very interested in their beliefs, and it is very enlighting, however I have to say that some things that are said within this newsletter are, not inciteful - in a hatred sort of way - or anything like that, but they are extreme in some beleifs/ideas, now if they are extreme in these ideas, does that mean others ( followers )can be as extreme, in ideas related to non muslim followers i.e. infidels.
just to give an example of something that i thought was strange, they were organising a fundraiser for the society, for whatever reason it was cancelled, and a sentence read something along the following:
"for those who have helped, it will not be felt or seen on the outside, but on the inside, and come the day of reckoning he will not stand in the shade but out of the shade, he will be judged superior when presented before allah for his actions"
now the words, actions, superior, shade and reckoning were all used, and in the sort of context above, i am unable to remember it word for word, I just thought that it was an extremely sensitive( for use of a much better word) piece to write, for such a small thing, but yet inciting at the same time.
basically what im trying to say is that if they feel, and use words like above to describe such small things, then surely some can interpret certain things within islam to justify their actions/what they do in relation to those of non muslim faith.
