Islam brings hope and comfort to millions of people. Islam quotes

1. I am not a Muslim in the usual sense, though I hope I am a “Muslim” as “one surrendered to God,” but I believe that embedded in the Quran.

And other expressions of the Islamic vision are vast stores of divine truth from which I and other occidentals have still much to learn, and ‘Islam is certainly a strong contender for the supplying of the basic framework of the o­ne religion of the future. ― William Montgomery Watt

3. The Ariyans and some other sects had disturbed the tranquility of the east by agitating the question of the nature of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. Muhammad declared that there was none but one God who had no father, no son and that the trinity imported the idea of idolatry. ― Napoleon Bonaparte

4. I am a Muslim, because it’s a religion that teaches you an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.

It teaches you to respect everybody, and treat everybody right.

But it also teaches you if someone steps on your toe, chop off their foot. And I carry my religious axe with me all the time. ― Malcolm X

7. The future must not belong to those who slander the Prophet of Islam. ― Barack Obama

14. Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen: all know how to die: but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. ― Winston Churchill

15. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. 

It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome. ― Winston Churchill

16. Islam doesn’t need reform, we need to reform the Muslim mind. ―Tariq Ramadan

19. Absolutely. If a Muslim who has-who is a practicing Muslim who believes the word of the Koran to be the word of Allah, who abides by Islam, who goes to mosque and prays every Friday.

Who prays five times a day-this practicing Muslim, who believes in the teachings of the Koran, cannot be a loyal citizen to the United States of America. Brigitte Gabriel

20. I become more than ever convinced that it was not the sword that won a place for Islam in those days. 

It was the rigid simplicity, the utter self-effacement of Hussein, the scrupulous regard for pledges, his intense devotion to his friends and followers and his intrepidity, his fearlessness, his absolute trust in God and in his own mission.

These and not the sword carried everything before them and surmounted every obstacle. Mahatma Gandhi

21. My love of truth and honesty forces me to notice that the liberal intelligentsia of Western countries is betraying itself where Islam is concerned. Richard Dawkins

23. If you are insecure, guess what? The rest of the world is too.

Do not overestimate the competition and underestimate yourself. If you are moving forward in your life. — Cherry Nguyen

even when you get exactly what you want, you still suffer because you can’t hold on to it forever. ― Dan Millman

25. No pain, no palm; no thorns, no throne; no gall, no glory; no cross, no crown. ― William Penn
