nice too nice - "What i tried to say that the person who doesn't follow the teachings of islam and his actions are accounted on islam which is not correct. Take the terrorist activities. Islam never allow any one to kill innocents, but you can see that most of the terrorist activities are counted on islam. Those so called muslim who doesn't follow islam in proper way as it taught and cause trouble for the entire muslim community. Can you call those terrorists are muslim? For me they are not muslim. They are terrorist and nothing to do with Islam.
Almighty is Merciful and we don't know about our status in front of him on the day of judgement. He is the one to decide and without his blessings and mercy no one can enter to the Paradise."
Good point. Glad that there are many like you. And yes, Islam has gotten really bad press due to some of these actions.
/But having said that, there are "terrorists" in other religions as well. Just downplayed and/or manipulated. It's a matter of communication to and education of as many people as possible, to broaden people's minds. Train people to think critically about whatever they hear, verify facts and not accept everything unquestioningly. Eg. my background / education system was rote learning - that does not train people to think. Things are changing but slowly.
