Are We Violent People? - Yasser Haddara

-Is the Quran filled with violence? It's usually taken out of context.

-Violence: Unjustifiable violence

-What do you mean by violence?

-If we are on a battlefield and being attacked. Stand steadfast.
-Do not ever wish to meet your enemy but if you do meet them; stand steadfast.

-Violence/fighting is not something thats glorified or celebrated.

-Allah (swt) said: O my servants. I've made injustice forbidden upon you and onto you.

-Where do you think the largest number of suicide bombing take place? Palestine? Iraq? Nope.
The largest number of suicide bombings is the Tamil Tigers in Sri Lanks.

-Suggestion: Don't respond without thinking. Ex: There's 1.3 billion of us in the world so don't mess with us!
