Jan 18, 2017 at 15:45 comment added Syedah Jesus peace be upon him said "Do not think that I came to bring peace on Earth .I did not come to bring peace ,but a sword"(Matthew 10:34) biblehub.com/matthew/10-34.htm so it would not be correct to conclude that the religion preached by him was about war and violence for these relate to some occasions.In Gita the holy book of hindus considered for moral values along with it is the exhortation of Krishna to Arjuna encouraging to fight as well (Gita 3:30) bhagavad-gita.org/Gita/verse-03-30.html.
Jan 18, 2017 at 15:28 comment added G. Bach @Faqirah They also don't call it oppressive towards homosexuals, but it is. The point is, of course scholars of Islam will not call Islam negative in any aspects, but that doesn't mean it isn't.
Jan 18, 2017 at 15:27 comment added Syedah But the scholars never mentioned Islam as non peaceful.
Jan 18, 2017 at 15:17 comment added G. Bach @Faqirah Quite a few countries don't kill adulterers, gays, witches, and dissenters, don't cut the hands off thieves or flog teenagers for having sex, and don't make war on other countries for having different religious convictions, yet have quite peaceful societies. In any event, that question is irrelevant to the question of whether or not Islam is peaceful. I didn't cite my own opinion, I cited acclaimed works of highly regarded Islamic scholars, and substantial polls by reputable centers of inquiry.
Jan 18, 2017 at 15:12 comment added Syedah So according to one perspective you assume it as non peaceful but infact these laws are made for betterment to bring peace.
Jan 18, 2017 at 15:10 comment added Syedah Just seen your answer and it shows your research work providing with some references nicely but I would like to ask a question from you as you have answered it according to your own perspectives ,Suppose you are given a Kingdom ,would you be able to bring peace over there by not punishing the rule breakers or corrupt people ,assuming you are not going to punish them what would be the output no peace at all no system or You have a classroom and you have not made any rules for punishments what would happen in the end no peace.
