    MUSLIMS IN CHRISTIAN COUNTRIES CAN CONVERT CHRISTIANS TO ISLAM. WHY IS IT ILLEGAL IN ISLAMIC COUNTRIES FOR CHRISTIANS TO TRY TO CONVERT MUSLIMS TO CHRISTIANITY? CAN ANY MUSLIM ANSWER THIS?

  • Muhammad Aasim Shamim 10 years ago

    that restriction is wrong in the way it is interpreted. There is difference in opinion among Muslim countries but there is no restriction in changing your religion under normal circumstances.

    Is this a new teaching in islam or it has been there and moslems don't know it or reject it?

  • JCSTWORLD 10 years ago

    See the difference in scripture not in followers. There are more than 100 verses in Koran where Mohammad incited violence, more particularly on infidels. Nothing like this is found from Jesus in Bible. In old testament whatev ...

    Action speaks louder than words! The whole wide world knows Muslems are very intolerant of people as such, no amount of write - ups from people like you will change anything.

  • JCSTWORLD 10 years ago

    This is blatant lie. World can see with its eyes closed as to how much religious tolerance exist in Islamic countries of middle east and elsewhere like Pakistan. The verses quoted are in tits and bits and they are entirely fr ...

    part of what lead to intolerance is u using muslim name though u r not.in the events of bad thing people will think it is muslims.

  • BeeTee 10 years ago

    Stop wasting your time with those verses.We are well aware that most of the verses you quoted were revealed to Muhammed during his time at Medina when he had few followers,All those earlier verses have been abrogated and this ...
