The Sukabumi Military District Command in West Java suspects that the Islamic State (IS) movement, also known as ISIS, is disseminating views and recruiting members in its area.
Your comments:
I urge those brainwashed by ISIS to contemplate and compare the teachings of Islam disseminated by ISIS and that taught by the Prophet Muhammad. It is quite different. For example, our Prophet never taught us to rob and kill innocent people.
If we look further at what ISIS has done, much of it was never taught by our Prophet, for example burning enemies. ISIS does not show any mercy and peace at all, ideas supposed to be promoted by Islam.
Therefore, you have to think not twice but hundreds of time if you want to pledge alliance to this extremist group.
They do not represent Islam at all, but tarnish the image of Islam. We have to realize our brothers and sisters in some Western countries have been intimidated because the people in those countries fear that these Muslims will pose a threat for them.
This is because of the action undertaken by some groups of people in the name of Islam. So, let's fix the image of Islam throughout the world and live side-by-side. Finally, let Allah judge what is right and what is wrong.
