What you need to know about Islam #13

To grasp what we have been talking about let’s look at the 5 pillars of Radical Islam which comes from the teachings we have previous ly looked at from Muhammad and his followers who claim Allah has revealed these revelations to them. This is very important to grasp!

Pillar 1: No law but Islamic law

Islamic law is viewed as a direct command from Allah. It began with Muhammad. In disputes he would receive a revelation from Allah or make a decision himself and his decision was final! Islamic law is considered to be a main part of the worship of Allah.
Pillar 2: Infidels are everywhere

Infidels are those who are any who oppose or do not follow correctly the message of Islam. Islam means submission and you must submit to Islamic law or you are an infidel. Here is the verse they refer to:

Sarah 4:65. But no, by your Lord, they can have no Faith, until they make you (O Muhammad ) judge in all disputes between them, and find in themselves no resistance against your decisions, and accept (them) with full submission.

In Islam it is either all or nothing in their faith.

Pillar 3: Islam must rule

Islam wants the caliphate (A caliphate is an Islamic state. It's led by a caliph, who is a political and religious leader who is a successor (caliph) to the Islamic prophet Muhammad. His power and authority is absolute.) and Islam to rule the entire world.
They don’t want partial rule they want one government and one religion all under Islam.

Tomorrow we will cover the other 2 pillars.
