The main thing is the inhumane killing of innocent people, neglecting our rights and the feeling of being controlled. I believe that even if maybe we're only indirectly affected, there will come a day when we will be the direct victims and it will be my family and friends at stake. These general reasons affect us all personally and we are all one (Middle East , Muslims and the world). If one of us is hurt , we all cry.

He was hated by all those people in Mecca who didn't want to believe him, and then he went to another city to get away from all the 'kufar' (people who didn't believe him and wanted to kill him) as they were torturing Muslims badly and stopping him from spreading his message. He went to the other city and stayed there for 2 years, during which he made a peace settlement with the kufar. After a while the kufar contradicted what they had agreed upon, so prophet Muhammed decided to 'open' Mecca, meaning to go into it with the army and all.. When they got there, the kufar got scared and didn't keep together, so the Muslims entered Mecca without any fighting. Then Muhammed stood in front of the 'keeba' (the black mosque Muslims go to in Mecca) to state what he was going to do with the kufar. They all expected him to kill them or ask for really high ransoms, but he said, "Go, for you are now free." I think this is proof of his not being violent, for these people had tortured him and his followers beyond belief and killed lots of people, and he just let them go. I know I wouldn't have done that.

Name : noha, Gender : F, Sexual Orientation : Straight, Religion : Muslim, Age : 16, City : cairo, State : NA Country : Egypt, Occupation : student, Education level : High School Diploma, Social class : Middle class, this is me again ,i told you about the prophet entering mecca ,first ,i said i'll tell you the exact incident were the 'kufar ' didn't do what they had agreed upon here goes: in the agreement,they had agreed that any tribe to be in any of either the muslim's or the kufar's protection enters the peace agreement and neither party should attack the other,then two tribes that were at war together ,one entered muslim protection and the other entered kufar protection,the tribe of the kufar took advantage of this peace agreement and decided to attack the other one at night ,helped by some members of the kufar themselves and they did,so next day when prophet muhamed knew the kufar sent a messenger to try to talk to prophet muhamed but he wouldn't talk to him and he started to get ready to go open mecca. this is the story when the kufar didn't go with their peace agreement. secondly , i just wanted to ask you about those specific incidents that Rev. Jerry Fallwell related his statments about prophet muhammed to so that i can answer you back on those specificly because i didn't watch the show as i don't have that channel.thanks again for caring enough to ask:)
