will change them for other skins, that they may taste the chastisement;
surely Allah is Mighty, Wise."

[22:19-22] But as for those who disbelieve, garments of fire
will be cut out for them, boiling fluid will be poured down their
heads. Whereby that which is in their bellies, and their skins too,
will be melted; And for them are hooked rods of iron. Whenever, in
their anguish, they would go forth from thence they are driven back
therein and (it is said unto them): Taste the doom of burning.

[8.12] When your Lord revealed to the angels: I am with you, therefore
make firm those who believe. I will cast terror into the hearts of those
who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every
fingertip of them.

[58:5] Those who resist Allah and His Messenger will be crumbled
to dust, as were those before them: for we have already sent down
Clear Signs and the Unbelievers will have a humiliating Penalty

Sahih Muslim
Book 019, Number 4366:
It has been narrated by 'Umar b. al-Khattib that he heard the Messenger
of Allah (may peace be upon him) say: I will expel the Jews and
Christians from the Arabian Peninsula and will not leave any but Muslim.

Sahih Muslim
The Book of Faith (Kitab Al-Iman)
Book 001, Number 0033:
It has been narrated on the authority of Abdullah b. 'Umar that the
Messenger of Allah said: I have been commanded to fight against people
till they testify that there is no god but Allah, that Muhammad is the
messenger of Allah, and they establish prayer, and pay Zakat and if they
do it, their blood and property are guaranteed protection on my behalf
except when justified by law, and their affairs rest with Allah.

[9.29] Fight those who do not believe in Allah, nor in the latter day,
nor do they prohibit what Allah and His Apostle have prohibited, nor
follow the religion of truth, out of those who have been given the Book,
until they pay the tax in acknowledgment of superiority and they are in
a state of subjection.

[9.123] O you who believe! fight those of the unbelievers who are near
to you and let them find in you hardness; and know that Allah is with
those who guard (against evil).

[4.74] Therefore let those fight in the way of Allah, who sell this
world's life for the hereafter; and whoever fights in the way of Allah,
then be he slain or be he victorious, We shall grant him a mighty
reward.

[9:5] But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the
Pagans wherever ye find them, an seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in
wait for them in every stratagem

Quran:
[5.51] O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for
friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes
them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not
guide the unjust people.

Terrorism is a logical outcome of putting the Qur'an into practice.

The Qur'an promotes permanent struggle against non-Muslims - or at
least until non-Muslims are converted to Islam, subjected to Islamic
authority, or killed. Below is a listing of relevant verses in the
Qur'an.

(Q. 2:191), to murder them and treat them harshly (Q. 9:123), slay
them (Q. 9: 5), fight with them, (Q. 8: 65 ) even if they are
Christians and Jews, humiliate them and impose on them a penalty
tax(Q. 9: 29).

It orders its followers to fight the unbelievers until no other
religion except Islam is left (Q. 2: 193).

It says that the non-believers will go to hell and will drink
boiling water (Q. 14: 17).

It asks the Muslims to slay or crucify or cut the hands and feet
of the unbelievers, that they be expelled from the land with
disgrace and that they shall have a great punishment in world
hereafter (Q.5: 34).

As for the disbelievers, it says that for them garments of fire
shall be cut and there shall be poured over their heads boiling
water whereby whatever is in their bowels and skin shall be
dissolved and they will be punished with hooked iron rods
(Q. 22: 9).

Quran takes away the freedom of belief from all humanity and tells
clearly that no other religion except Islam is accepted (Q.3: 85).

It relegates those who disbelieve in Quran to hell (Q. 5:11),
calls them najis (filthy, untouchable, impure) (Q. 9: 28).

Quran prohibits a Muslim to befriend a non-believer even if that
non-believer is the father or the brother of that Muslim
(Q. 9: 23), (Q. 3: 28).

Quran asks the Muslims to strive against the unbelievers with
great endeavor (Q. 25: 52), be stern with them because they
belong to hell (Q. 66: 9).

The holy Prophet demanded his follower to strike off the heads of
the disbelievers then after making a wide slaughter among them,
carefully tie up the remaining captives (Q. 47: 4).

As for women the book of Allah says that they are inferior to men
and their husbands have the right to scourge them if they are
found disobedient (Q. 4:34).

It teaches that women will go to hell if they are disobedient to
their husbands (Q. 66:10).

It maintains that men have an advantage over the women (Q. 2:228).

It not only denies the women's equal right to their inheritance
(Q. 4:11-12), it also regards them as imbeciles and decrees that
their witness is not admissible in the court (Q. 2:282).

A woman who is raped cannot accuse her rapist unless
she can produce a male witness. Muhammad allowed the Muslims to marry
up to four women and gave them permission to sleep with their slave
maids and as many captive women as they may have (Q. 4:3).
He himself did just that. This is why anytime a Muslim army subdues
another nation, they call them kafir and allow themselves to rape
their women.

Pakistani soldiers raped up to 250,000 Bangali women in 1971 after
they massacred 3,000,000 unarmed civilians when their religious
leader decreed that Bangladeshis are unislamic. This is why the
prison guards in Islamic regime of Iran rape the women and then
kill them after calling them apostates and the enemies of Allah.
