Islam, religion or terrorism?

Recently, within the last year we have had a very sad, and tragic terrorist attack. All of us were very terrified and confused on why all this was going on. No one knew whom to blame, or what to do, everyone just tried to cope with it the best they could. September 11th 2001, was the most tragic incident the United States has seen since Pearl Harbor. But for some reason before anyone was sure who did it or who was behind the terrorist attack everyone said that it was Muslim terrorism. But the fact is, Islam in no way permits, promotes, or approves any form of terrorism. Many people think of terrorist when they think of the religion of Islam.

If their countries laws allow it women of the Islamic religion are free to dress and behave like women of any other religion. There has always been respect for women in Islam. Back in the 7th century Islam said men and women are equal. Women had the right to won and inherit property, seek divorce, gain an education, and retain a family name. Before this women had little or no rights. The treatment of women has 4 main rules. First paradise is under the feet of the mother. Second a good wife is half a mans religion. Third men are ordered to “treat them in good ways”. Lastly, The best of you is the one who is best to his wife. The religion of Islam isn’t one that promotes violence.
