quran ( not koran)


I've seen people spell both ways, so I did a search. And this is what I got.

Wikipedia wrote:
The Qur'an (Arabic: القرآن al-qur'ān, literally "the recitation"; also called Al Qur'ān Al Karīm or "The Noble Qur'an"; or transliterated Quran, Koran, and less commonly Alcoran) is the holy book of Islam. Muslims believe that the Qur'an is the literal word of God in Arabic and the culmination of God's revelation to mankind, revealed to Muhammad, the final prophet of Islam, over a period of 23 years through the angel Jibril (Gabriel).


It seems spelling it both ways is correct, as the original word is in Arabic Wink

i dont know how is in USA but i can tell you that here in Romania, my country, if we see a Muslim, we think that he can be a terrorist:). I dont know why is like this. I really have nothink with other peopels, i would like to speak with a muslim, but in my country arent a lots. I think that this image, that a muslim is a terroris, is made by the last events from history.

Maybe I jumped the gun manizzle. For that I apologize. I dispise the works of racism and prejudice. I hate it with a passion. But I do not hate the people that practice it (alright maybe a little but I am working on that.) Work

People hate what they do not understand ...
They do not understand because they are uneducated ( not because they are "Dumb")

I am glad to hear that you are pursuing an education and that you are doing a good job.

I don't hate you ... I don't even know you.

I would never use Religion or someone's belief as a basis for Hate.

I have a sikh friend, and because the turban has become the symbol for "terrorism", he gets harrassed on routine. Now, I'm probably not the "all american boy", but I am big, so when I'm around, they tend to leave him alone. But, I have seen him stick up for himself, and it makes me wonder, do the people making fun of him actually realise how blatantly stupid they are?

Anyway, I don't hate Muslims, or Jews, or Atheists. Honestly, I don't care what religion my friends are. So long as they're not tearing at my own beliefs.

Now, the whole prejuidice against muslims in the United States is probably due to the fact of the Turban. The Turban is associated with muslims, hence Osama bin Laden wore a Turban, therefore muslims are bad. That is America's logic at the current moment. I shun it absolutely.

I don't hate muslims, as long as they don't threaten people who don't believe or believe in something else. I hate fundamentalists, and I realize that not every muslim is a fundamentalist.

Sucks huh. Sometimes this is how it is when someone from your own religion goes out of his/her way to act like a fool. I too also live in India like thunder, and am surrounded by muslims. The thing is, most of them are actually nice people. If you for example have been living in a place for sometime and some outsider tries to come and mess with you, they stick up for you. However, I must admit that there seems to be more muslim radicalists than in any other religion. I wonder why. Maybe they misinterpret their religion or just want publicity. In India, most muslims actually don't go around bombing up themselves. However, in neighboring pakistan that seems to be more of a probability. Now this begs the conjecture that maybe it's the environment that people are brought up in.

If people hate you without really knowing you, then there not really worth the worry of asking "WHY?" Unfortunately, history will always come into play on how individuals of today perceive other groups of people. A recent topic I had the pleasure of reading proves just that. This is not to say that these emotions are right, but then again, they may not necessarily be wrong either. Unexplained hatred is generally a result of fear. Take away the fear and people might risk actually becoming imeshed with another culture beside their own.

i dont have any friends that are muslim, but i dont thing you are terrorist. i would have to say anyone that thinks that need to get there facts right. although they do have a reason. they feel threaten by having some that looks like someone of a terrorist nature around them. i would have to say if i were on a plane that had a muslim looking person i would be a little worried. it isnt right to think that way but sometimes it cant be helped.

It's all stupid interpretations. Just like how hitler took to blaming my people for the great depression, religion has been used to use people since it has started. Muslim might be a peace loving religion but these terrorist groups use it as an excuse to kill.
Everyone has his own religion and each should be tolerating, to think badly of someone just because of his religion isn't just bad its pure racism!

I think is not a religion problem, the US have serious racist problems in a lot of states, in my country we don't have that kind of problems, no matter the religion, what the people is wearing, the color of the skin or anything like that.

I think that some people judge before knowing, just like in the Shrek movie. I do not hate you, I do not know you, but if I were leaving on the same street I would like to get to know you not hate you.
