Islam does not change it is people who follow it
that make the decision.
The rules of Islam is very simple,it is written specifically in
the Quran.
Aggression is allowed only when attacked and even then
forgiveness is better if they fear Allah.
So in short,we are allowed to retaliate if a person does harm,an
eye for an eye,an arm for an arm,,and so on.
But only to the person who does the harming not to others.
Inshallah we will all get what we deserve,our sin are our
own.
No other can bear the other.
For muslim one and all who fear allah and fear the fire,would
seek HIS pleasure and do what is right.
I shall give an example of aggression in Islam.
Once 2 warriors fought,blood lust rose and they fought till one
is overcome,but at the last moment the winner did not kill.
When asked why,he simply said,if i had taken your life it is due
to anger and not for Allah sake.
So in islam we are commanded to do the best we can for Allah and
not for ourselves.
Greetings of peace to you too, Zulkiflim.
It would be an honour and priviledge to meet a person of your
calibre and understanding in the battlefield, for you understand
the concept of 'noble warrior'. But let us NEVER meet under any
circumstances in the battlefield, this and the generations to
come.
Being able to comprehend such concepts, thus i am assured that
the terrorists whom claimed affinity to your religion who slays
innocents are only worth contempt in your mind and against the
religious doctrines you had been taught, not worthy of any
support, funds or even sympathy for their actions.
But it is not enough that you know all these, you must help
ensure others understand this as well, and make them promise or
even swear to help others understand this.
For too long, many heads of state had failed both religion and
society to eradicate the oppression of terrorism. It is up to us, the masses whom are closer to the
ground, to effect such changes.
The past is past. The dead is dead. But there is much we can do
for those living, and those yet to come as well as honour those
whom had needlessly die in order that we remember we are humans
after all. I hope you will consider my words. Thanks.
