What do you think about these verses in the Quran?
The reasons why jihad is necessary -Jihad to protect the oppressed people -Jihad when people are driven from their homes -Jihad when people (Muslims, Jews & Christians) are under attack
004.075 And why should ye not fight in the cause of God and of those who, being weak, are ill-treated (and oppressed)?- Men, women, and children, whose cry is: "Our Lord! Rescue us from this town, whose people are oppressors; and raise for us from thee one who will protect; and raise for us from thee one who will help!" 022.039 To those against whom war is made, permission is given (to fight), because they are wronged;- and verily, God is most powerful for their aid;- 022.040 (They are) those who have been expelled from their homes in defiance of right,- (for no cause) except that they say, "our Lord is God". Did not God check one set of people by means of another, there would surely have been pulled down monasteries, churches, synagogues, and mosques, in which the name of God is commemorated in abundant measure. God will certainly aid those who aid his (cause);- for verily God is full of Strength, Exalted in Might, (able to enforce His Will).

All the major faiths have been heroicized by relativistic dominions/false Gods/avaricious idiots. Mohamed would not have said all others are the enemy. Just like moses would not have said this: Pharaoh's genocide decree between 1391–1271 BCE, alleges the prophet Moses commands the murder of approximately 100,000 young males and, roughly, 68,000 helpless women.
Gandhi defeated the British empire with peace, so it's time to wake up to the truth about heroicized religions. Enlightened beings do not say these things I can assure you.
Heroicized and monotheised religion deluded and appeared to tell its troops they were the chosen ones, and that all others are the enemy. Possibly the parables and the words of enlightened beings perverted for purposes of acquiring false pervasive power over others, who then tells the uneducated, the desperate, the poor thus the easily suggestible how things should be(False priests/the rendering of False reality), then with force and enslavement to capitalism > deludes & subjugates. Pharaoh's genocide decree between 1391–1271 BCE, alleges the prophet Moses commands the murder of approximately 100,000 young males and, roughly, 68,000 helpless women. From 1379 BC The Heretic Pharaoh Akhenaten (Amenhotep IV) pervades the minds of the masses with monotheistic delusion, Aten the Sun God was prophesied to be the main deity and used to take on Tuthmosis IV. Soon after Akhenaten become pharaoh of Egypt. The Persians used this with an abused form of Zoroastrianism along with force to rule half the known world (500 BCE) So did the Roman Empire with Catholicism 44 BC to 1453 AD The decline of the Roman Empire led to the Spanish Inquisition > People deluded by heretics accusing people of being heretics, which lead to the worst torture of human beings imaginable. In 1209, Louis VIII of France through Pope Innocent III in Bezier raised Catholic forces and massacred 20,000 Gnostic’s who made every effort to follow the teachings of Jesus. They believed that there were two "gods" — one malevolent in charge of all visible and material things held responsible for all the atrocities in the Old Testament, and a benevolent god responsible for the message of Jesus. So did the Ottoman Empire (1301-1922) Islam, all others are the enemy! So did the British Empire. So did the Spanish and Portuguese, in South America 1494 which went on for 400 years, All which fell, all which will fall. All threatening a version of the truth and reality held by the empowered, a threat to castle insanity/false empires, war breaks up the family home = no learned moral parameters. The trouble is, dictatorships are given rise to result of cultural moral decay (More immoralities committed upon each other)
I discover it ridiculous that you just even point out that a verse may also be deleted from the Quran. The Quran was once created through Allah, for the men and women, and we are not able to contact it. I'm amazed you do not know that. And quite, like all Muslim must recognize, The Quran is the one sacred textual content that has no longer been tampered with, considering the textual content was once handed on through the sa7aba and it remained intact. Besides, in case you wanna recognize my opinion approximately it, I consider the Shia Sunni feud is ridiculous, on account that we're Muslims however.
fight those who neither believe in allah nor the last day, who do not forbid what allah and his messenger have forbidden, and do not embrace the religion of the truth, being among those who have been given the book (bible and the torah), until they pay tribute out of hand and have been humiliated[9:29]
believers, fight the unbelievers who are near you. let them find firmness in you. know that allah is with those who are cautious[9:123]
they ask you about the spoils (of war). say: 'the spoils belong to allah and the messenger. therefore, have fear of allah and set things right between you. obey allah and his messenger, if you are believers[8:1]
and know that one fifth of whatever you take as spoils belong to allah, the messenger, kinsmen of the messenger, the orphans, the needy, and the destitute traveler; if you believe in allah and what we sent down to our worshiper on the day of victory, the day when the two armies met. allah has power over all things[8:41]
allah has promised that you take many spoils. he has hastened this to you, and restrained the hands of people from you so that he makes it a sign to the believers and to guide you on a straight path[48:20]
and there were (other spoils) which you were unable to take. allah has encompassed it already, allah is powerful over all things.[48:21]
and (forbidden to you) are married women, except those whom your right hand owns. such allah has written for you. lawful to you beyond all that, is that you can seek using your wealth in marriage and not fornication. so whatever you have enjoyed from them give them their obligated wage. and there is no fault in you in what ever you mutually agree after the obligation. allah is the knower, the wise[4:24]
The reasons why jihad is necessary -jihad to expand mohammed's territories -jihad when there are properties of infidels which Allah has promised to give them to muslims -jihad to attain beautiful women of other tribes
I think people have many different opinions as to what oppression is. Muslims feel oppressed if alcohol is sold or if women show their hair. So, I'm not impressed. Besides the later revelations of the Quran abrogate the earlier and seemingly nicer ones. Now Muslims can jihad because:
Quran (3:151) - "Soon shall We cast terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers, for that they joined companions with Allah, for which He had sent no authority".
Quran (4:76) - "Those who believe fight in the cause of Allah…"
Quran (4:95) - "Not equal are those believers who sit (at home) and receive no hurt, and those who strive and fight in the cause of Allah with their goods and their persons. Allah hath granted a grade higher to those who strive and fight with their goods and persons than to those who sit (at home). Unto all (in Faith) Hath Allah promised good: But those who strive and fight Hath He distinguished above those who sit (at home) by a special reward,-"
Quran (5:33) - "The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His messenger and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides or they should be imprisoned; this shall be as a disgrace for them in this world, and in the hereafter they shall have a grievous chastisement"
Quran (8:12) - "I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them"
Quran (8:39) - "And fight with them until there is no more fitna (disorder, unbelief) and religion should be only for Allah"
Quran (9:5) - "So when the sacred months have passed away, then slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captives and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush, then if they repent and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate, leave their way free to them."
Quran (9:29) - "Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued."
