Islam Teaches Muslims to be kind and Compassionate.
Mohammed the Prophet was born at Mecca in 570 A.D. in the respected House of Abdullah of the Hashmites, of the tribes of the qurasish.At the age of forty Mohammed began gaining a spiritual experience while visiting Mount Hills three miles from Mecca. .
As a result of a whole month of rich spiritual experience, he was under believe that he has a mission to fulfil, namely to guide his countrymen and a mankind along a path leading to everlasting peace. A vision is said to have announced to him that he was the Prophet of Allah.

Prophet Mohammed therefore, began to preach his doctrines of Allah or the one true God. God’s message thro Mohammed to mankind is incorporated in Holu “Koran”. His new faith was named as “Islam” literally meaning “Surrender”. Those who surrender to God are called Mussalmans or Muslims.

The teachings of Islam is as under:-

1. Oneness of God or strict monotheism “There is no god, but Allah, and Mohammed is his Prophet.
2. Prayers to God at least five times a day.
3. All mankind is a brotherhood.
4. The faithful must help their brethren according to their means, and charity must become a habit with a true Muslim.
5. Respect for women.
6. Surrender of oneself to Allah.

Islam also enjoins fasting in the month of Ramzon and vist to the places of faith viz., Mecca, Medina, etc., at least once in a life time. Islam also calls upon the faithful not to drink wine, consume pork, gamble, steel, and slander others or commit murder. It expects all Muslims to be kind and compassionate to the poor, sick, the orphans and the widows.

From the above, we can understand that Islam teaches mankind to all in the world. Particularly Muslim terrorists, if they want to follow the principals of the Islam, they must stop their killing activities in Jammu and Kashmir and also in other parts of the World. True Muslim who follows the footstep of Allah must come forward to preach the teachings of Mankind to the world.
