A follower of Islam; someone who surrenders their life to worship the one and only god, Allah, the same god Christians worship; someone who is not a terrorist

Muslims are quite possibly the most misunderstood people on the planet. Media outlets erroneously depict them as radical, women-beating, West-haters. While these misguided “Muslims” exist, do not forget that the KKK prides itself on being "Protestant." Yet most Protestants reject the Klan’s intentions. Likewise, most Muslims reject the extremist’s intentions.
In reality, Islam promotes peace and friendship amongst both Muslims and non-Muslims. The vast majority of Muslims are non-violent and peaceful. They try to express disgust publicly for the actions of bin Laden, the Taliban, etc. Unfortunately, the media silences them. Portraying Muslims as terrorists gives the government a great excuse to invade Muslim nations and steal the abundant oil.
In Islam, men treat women with great respect and compassion. Although many Muslim women choose to wear a scarf, the Quran (Muslims’ Holy Book) does not explicitly state the need to cover one’s head. Doing so is to preserve modesty and prevent unwanted attention from men. (Ladies, do you really like creepy men following you around and trying to spit game to you? Have you noticed that the less clothing you wear, the more common this is?)
Now about violence: The Quran only permits combat as an act of self-defense. Muslims should fight back to defend themselves if others jeopardize their safety. Fighting must be a last resort, when peace talks fail and danger is imminent. In the Prophet Muhammad's time, Arabs would torture and kill Muslims. The seventh-century Arabs wanted to eradicate Islam because of its differences to their mainstream culture. That is why the Quran told early Muslims to defend themselves. After all, America rightfully defended herself after 9/11, Pearl Harbor, etc.
Terrorist "Muslims" are radical idiots who normal Muslims detest. While normal Muslims do not fully understand their motives, it is clear that they follow a falsification of the noble religion of Islam. Very few “Muslims” are terrorists, obviously. With nearly two billion Muslims, they could easily take over the world if they wanted. Nevertheless, the true Muslims do not and that is why they will not.

“God does not forbid you from showing kindness and dealing justly with those who have not fought you about religion and have not driven you out of your homes. God loves just dealers.” (60:8).
“Fight in the path of God those who fight you, but do not aggress. Surely, God does not love the aggressors.” (2:190).
Surah Al-Anfal states, “And if they incline to peace, so you must incline to it.”
I am a “normal” Muslim living in the United States. I love America but I oppose the war. I am a normal person who loves to play football, lift weights, make money, go out with my friends on weekends, race people in my GT Mustang, and go to the beach. I also love to pray to God (Allah) and I sometimes pray for peace in the Middle East. Most of my friends are Christians and Muslims, but I also have friends of other religions. I really do not like Bush because of the damage he has done in the Middle East and to our economy. If you want to know what Islam is really like, then take a good look at the lives of the real Muslims, such as myself. Do not base my religion on the cowardly actions of a crackhead like Osama bin Laden.

Someone who is thought of by fools like captain Brit of the 21st centuryas an immigrant. They don't know that most Muslims live peacefully in their home countries and sometimes get invaded by others including Brits.
Muslims follow Islam which requires them to be kind and friendly. They worship God, though they name Him Allah, which is the Arabic name of God. There are fundamentalist extremist Muslims, as there fundamentalist extremist Christians and Jew. These fundamentalists try to defame Islam and Muslims.

A person who follows the religion of Islam. Often has to face prejudice and bigotry because of people not being educated enough to know what Islam means. A Muslim will great with Asalamu Alaikum, which means “peace upon you”. A Muslim is often very kind and open. Although occidental people are not always used to the different culture a Muslim brings with him, he is not very different from them. He will share everything with you and welcome you in his house and make you feel home. Muslims seek to be like the Prophet and have a good heart. You can trust a Muslim, don’t believe everything you see, most of is just garbage. In a world full of conflicts, try to make peace. Don’t be a Trump supporter and shake hands with a Muslim. :))
terrorists have nothing to do with Islam. Killing is the biggest sin in Islam. Terrorists are NOT Muslims, no matter what they say. If they have ideas of killing people, they are not Muslim. Don’t blame those actions on an entire religion but on the people who do them.
Killing one person is considered to be as bad as killing the entire humanity. Think about this.

The term for followers of the Islamic religion. Sadly, in light of recent worldly events have een given a horrible name. A few radical "followers" of the religion scewed it for their own personal benifits and have ruined the lives/ increases the racism towards true muslims. The religion is one of peace, actually, and head covering is a choice. Also to wear an entire body veil (burka) is a government run thing, not a religious rule. Saudi Arabia can be blamed for that. There are many good muslim countries (Ex. Lebanon, dubai, jordan, turkey) that are a great mix of westernized and cultural. Very family oriented people, most of the males are inclined towards math/science. Most woman are poetry writers or doctors. Very hard working and driven. Most pretty relgious.
Boy 1: Look at that muslim! He must be a terrorist!
Girl 1: No, that is a very small minority, and a political idea rather than a religious one.
Boy 1: Wow... I feel ignorant now.

A person who has read the Koran or has learned from others that:
1. To please God do good deeds.
2. To show proper fear of God, avoid doing his prohibited acts.
3. Have strong faith in our munificent Allah.
