There happen to be people who unfortunately relish in promoting ignorance and hatred towards Muslims. They play on the ignorance of others, by giving false information. For this reason it is always important to find out about Islam from true Islamic sources.
These people often misquote the Quran. An example is when they quote the following verse out of context:
And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out. And Al-Fitnah [2:191]
However, they do not quote the verse in its entirety and without establishing the facts surrounding these verses.
And fight in the Way of Allâh those who fight you, but transgress not the limits. Truly, Allâh likes not the transgressors.
And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out. And Al-Fitnah [Trials, Persecution] is worse than killing. And fight not with them at Al-Masjid-al-Harâm (the sanctuary at Makkah),[unless they (first) fight you there.
But if they attack you, then kill them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers.[2:190-191]
Allah and his Prophet forbid peopel from going to extremes.
The Messenger of Allaah (SAW) said, "I warn you of extremism in the Religion for indeed those that came before you were destroyed due to their extremism in the religion." Reported by an-Nasaa'ee (5/268), ibn Maajah (no. 3029), Ahmad (1/215, 347) with a saheeh sanad
"Thus have We Made of you an Ummah justly balanced" [Al-Baqara 2:143] "Ummatan Wasata"
Allah almighty says in the Quran:
Thus We have made you* a Wasat (just) (and the best) nation, that you be witnesses over mankind. [Al-Baqara 2:143]
"Ummatan Wasata" Means Nation that is the best, the just, the balanced, and the fair. Not one which goes to any extremes.
[*true Muslims are the real believers of Islâmic Monotheism, true followers of Prophet Muhammad SAW and his Sunnah (legal ways)]
