The Terrorists



The Muslim terrorists are now across the earth
They want peace prosperity happiness and mirth
Their goal is good but path is wrong
In the misled group they belong
They commit sins in exchange of sins
They mislead even innocent teens
They want to become martyrs
But they become murderers
They kill guiltless ones in the name of holy war
On Islam's beautiful face they are like a scar

awesome pal. u see all the muslims are not terrorist but all the terrorists are muslims.maybe they are doing the wrong but i think they had been wrong from the first place.you know they attacked every places to spreaded thier religion.even to the europe(Andalos) and they killed so many innocent people.i do not know who had allowed them.I have read the holy Quran.and i wondered that it has mentioned in it directedly(kill the others who do not accept u r religion) so they attacked to the other countries even my country (Iran) , although we worshiped the God.we had accepted the Zoroastrianism.our prophet was Zoroaster. U know even the slavery is permitted in Islam. I do not want to discuss if it is good or not.all i want to say is that they r just doing what they have been told.all the religions are for knowing the God but as u have said in u r poem (know thyself) we can do it by our minds. Please forgive me if i have insulted to the Islam. It had better not discuss around the matters politics and religions. Any way muchas gracias for sharing and inviting Cheers

Hummm...Salaams, i must be truthful, the poem is an ok 1. i understand wee you are coming from. there are many called muslims and yet ack nothing like it. there is a right way to do war and there is a wrong way, and the ones that go by it all wrong are the ones that gives musilms a bad name.

good work... True representation of ur age... The same problem V face... Islam is the religion o peace, but unfortunately its image has been distorted by such elements.... But one thing is for sure, truth will triumph in the end...!

I like the fact that you chose a topic so sensitive to us Muslims. Terrorism is a warp sense of 'claiming' to be a muslim. It totally contradicts what the Quraan has taught us. You have shed light on this topic in the best possible way. :) Keep writing, you are a good poet

It all turns around the fallacy of being right. No matter how good and great our concept about our Creator, our human brain is far to small to understand the truth about our God. If just more people would realise this and humbly accept that all of us are extremely limited and wrong in our God-concept, the world would look so different. Let us do away with all intellectual arrogance and humbly practice our own religion with full respect for each other. I really like the very iimportant statement that our God is the most gracious and most forgiving. If just more people would be able to internalise the meaning of this phrase, there would be much more peace.
