What would I need to know about Islam in a terrorist situation?
The last couple of major terrorist attacks we have seen, specifically in Algeria last year and in Kenya this week, there were reports that the terrorists were trying to let all Muslims go and kill all non-Muslims. They reportedly did so by asking questions that Muslims would be expected to know, and killing those who could not answer.
If, heaven forbid, I should ever find myself in a similar situation, what are the things I would need to know in order to put on a good enough act to save my life?

I heard that one of the questions they asked was for the name of the Muhammad's mother. I'm afraid I do not know the answer off hand (so I'd be toast, then).
I also heard that one man who had a Christian fore-name but a Muslim sounding surname managed to get past them by putting this thumb over his Christian name on his ID card.
Edit: Aminah bint Wahb, apparently.
"Bint" - snigger!

You never know what they could ask.
In Holland they would ask people to say the name of a town called Scheveningen. The Germans speak differently than the Dutch and the Nazi's would not say it correctly.
Or in "Inglourious Basterds" when he asks for 3 more drinks and uses the hand signal incorrectly.
There are lots of things they could ask, you would not be able to know.
I wouldn't worry about it too much, they are crazy to begin with and there isn't any reasoning with them, just try to avoid places like Algeria and Kenya.

You'll need to know that muslim terrorists are not immune to bullets and how to aim and pull a trigger other than that you just need the gun

unfortunately , some Muslims are extremist and brainwashed , so they commit crimes in the name of Islam. Islam doesn't tell us to kill others.
