Why do Muslims make it a point to kill other Muslis in the name of Islam?

    The problem goes back to a dispute over who had spiritual authority over the Muslim community after the death of the prophet Muhammad in what is called the “fitna” which translates as temptation or trial and caused all the discord within Muslim community.

    Shi’ite Muslims believe that authority was vested in his family; the Sunnis look to the sayings and actions of Muhammad as well as the Koran.

    All the Muslim on Muslim violence is based on that split!

    Over 550,000 Muslims have been slaughtered by Muslims in Syria alone with almost daily beheadings, burnings and other executions!

    Isis and al Qaeda is turning Islam into a death cult that will be unacceptable in any civilised country. Whatever fighting may do it cannot save Islam from self destructing only the real Muslims can do that and there is little sign yet of Islam tackling the problem!

    Sunni vs Shi'a.. Each side calls the other one 'fake Muslims'..each side got terrorists at their disposal.. The fight was started 1400 years ago after Muhammad died..some Muslims followed Aisha and some Muslims followed Ali

    There are many sects among Islam, each sect believe the other sect isn't following 'real Islam'.

    Unlike most non Muslim, Muslims think solution of all problems is murdering ppl.

    That's what religions do.

    It's just the same with Sunnis and Shiites as Catholics and Protestants.

    Because other Muslims help the invaders in killing Muslims.

    From what I've learned they believe that it pleases their deity Allah when they remove who they believe are infidels/apostates from the faith.

    Jesus Christ teaches that murder for any reason will send a soul to hell forever.

    Buddhists in Korea and Vietnam killed each other in wars over a doctrinal difference.

    destroyed most of their countries and killed millions so it seems freedom of religion would solve most of mankinds wars.

    Plenty of Christians have done the same, and still are.
