#1. What's the basic principle behind Islam? The 5 Pillars? That there is no god but Allah? That Muhammad is the last messenger of Allah?

Well of those count and are valid Answers.

BUT, the most basic principle which the above mentioned ones flow from, is that the religion doesn't change, it isn't modified by man, man doesn't add to it, that there aren't multiple versions of the religion, that men don't represent themselves as agents of Allah when they aren't, that men don't do things in the name of Islam that are wrong/contrary to the beliefs of the religion.

It's one thing to do something UnIslamic, it's one thing to commit that act in the name of Islam and encourage other Muslim's to follow suit. When a man does that, he's following his own Belief system, he's no longer a Muslim, he's now a Muslim in name only.

#2. Read post #2.

I think the brotha explained it quite well.


#3. What's the point of this? That Bin Ladin is right? That Muslims should support him? Enlighten us.
