In order to write a fair article about this subject and be truthful I do have to put my prejdouse a side and my religion a side . I want to put my affiliation aside and I'm not even affiliated with any organization .The one thing I'm affiliated with is the human race . I am a Muslim who wants to bring us togoether . A Muslim who wants us to understand each other and love one another .So as I stated from the beginning to the end of this article I am no longer a Muslim. I'm no longer from the east . I'm only a human who is telling a story about how we end up here . I am going to start  from the beginning of time because this problem didn't start yesterday , or on the horrible event of September 11 . It started 1000's of years ago . Like I said , I am going to be truthful and neutral to the best of my knowledge . After U read this UR  thought and comments are welcome.
This is one of the most interesting subjects in recent time .Muslims and Christians . This subject  has been given many names .We and Them. The East and the West. The Good and the Evil .The Terrorist and freedom defenders. Enemy of civilization and democracy . And  I  could go on all day and the list wouldn't end. The story of Islam started when a man named Mohammad born in 570 ad in the middle east . This land is Suadi Arabia in our modern day's. In Saudi Arabia, Mohammad's tribe went by the name Quriash . Of course, Mohammad was a  uneducated  young man who lived and worked in the desert as a shepard.He took care of animals .At the age of six , he lost his parents. Then  he was raised by his uncle and the tribe. At the age of 25 years old he worked as salesman in modern day's. Every one loved Mohammad and trusted him before he became a prophet.. Although there were other religion came before Islam such as  Judaism and Christianity, some people still worshiped rock's or idols .In addition, the father of all religions Ibrahim (or in English U call him Abraham ) was born in Iraq to the people who lived in that part of the world . Some of this tribes whom lived in that region became Christian .Others became Jewish . The Islam still weren't  there yet . The whole region was called the Arabian benancella.There were jesus , Moses , Noah and salmon .Ibrahim , on the other hand, refused to belive in worshiping idols or rock's that were sculped as human shape and were givin the name of God . The story of religion ( some people call it in our modern day's as organized religions) started with Ibrahim refusing the worshiping of rock's .From the day he started the journey  of searching for the real God until the day he was told there is a God ,  angel  informed  him about God and instructed him to build house of God  which called  nowadays  kaba . Kaba is built  in  mecca, Suadi Arabia. So, Ibrahim started  the religion . Now every name U could think off in religion it has to come from the middle east .Every original Christian or oreginal jewish look like the middle eastern looks .He wouldn't look like a  westerner . My point here t, is the Christians wasn't  from the west . The Christian were Arabs.  Until this day, we have alot of Arab Christian and Jewish lets go back to muhammed (saa). In the desert , Mohammad received the message from an angel  telling him he is from the chosen ones .Like Moses ,Ibrahim and Jesus and so on .But what was different about his message that it stated there will be no more messages to human kind ,and no more religions after Islam . It was the end of miracles time and the prophets times. Islam closed the door for all religions . That 's it . God sent us so many prophets and we killed so many of them. It's up to us to believe .Mohammed (saa) who was born to arabic tribe in the dessert ,who was uneducated, who worked with animals. His religion spread  all  over the world in about twenty years until he died at age of 62 . Islam became the biggest religion and the biggest  Islamic empire known in history of the human kind. Islam ruled basically the world for over 1000 years . In the beggining it build that empire in faith,  in  justice for all ,and equality . The teaching of Islam we are equal no mater what. No one is better than the other in the eye of God. But  the one who follows God's teaching and instructions,here is what I think from my reading and researching. .The story begins to go bad between Christian and muslim when the Islamic Empire concored the whole world up to the 16th century . The mulsim ruled the world and the Islamic leaders were fair to all people of the world. They let the Christian to be Christian and allowed the christians and the Jewish to worship freely . The Islamic faith started in Saudi Arabia with one man then ,300 men , 500 men , 10000 men , and within fifty years it was the largest and most powerful faith in the face of the Earth. Now, over billion followers took over Africa ,east Europe , Spain , Itlay,India ,and china .hengry, Bulgaria name in modern time.Muslims even tried to invate some western country like Vienna in modern time . of course, including all the middle east too. That is were the religion strated any way. Here is what i think went wrong. When the Egyption governonr of Jerusalem burnt a church , he rovoked alot of christian people . Europe got fed up with this empire taken over the world .So, in 1099 ad, the pope the second call on the European country to mobilize an army of 100000 soliders call them self the crusaders.They attack Jerusalem and they killed most the Moslem in Jerusalem including kids, women ,old people ,and christian too. Of course that was forbidden in the Islamic faith to kill women, kids, or olderly . Muslim were shocked by that . And the crusaders took over jerusalem for 3 years. .But after that the moslim fought with them and kicked  them out since that  time  'til  1948   jerusalem stayed with the muslim . Wether  the reason was political  ,over power ,or over religion really I don't care. I could go all day taking about the history of it . Since then ,the west viewed  the east as the enemy .And the east viewed the west as their enemy. That's onley applied to the leaders  of  the west  and the leaders of the  east  as states and government .But as people they lived  together for 1000's of years as neighbor peacefully with no problem .Taken in concederation they are the same people as original Christian.
Let say your  friend Mike become a Moslem .Are U going to kill him ? Of course u r not going to do that, he still is American, and he still  is ur  friend. And that's how it use to be for 1000's of years. Things become more political like I said, it never has been religous fight it has that cover as religous fight, but it's over power who is going to rule the word . Is it  the moslem or the Christian.? ..Is  it we or hem ?.I blame intellecual in both side ,to abuse and miss lead  our people and ur people in believing  that the fight is over religion..One could argue that is the truth. .Then why the fight with french ,the English ,the German spanish they all Christian what about ww1, ww2 non of them is moslem they all Christian. .About 35 milion die under the name of the cross .like Isaid before we have been miss lead to beieve  that  moslim is the enemy, and Christian is the enemy . The enemey is the one who wants us to kill each other . If bin ladin want us to kill u he his the enemy.And doesn't represent over bilions of muslim. If ur leader wants u  to  kill  us he is the enemy.let's try to tell our enemy we got U figured out we always' lived in peace and harmony  for 1000's of years ,and still can do.If our older or ur older want to fight let them do it their self .We the people ,and that smart people not going to do it because the Muslim faith doesn't ask me to kill u ,and ur faith doesn't ask u too.I think we have extremist on both side . the fight is over money ,oil,lands, and power.don't get us involved in it.  Most muslim and i speak for my self  view Christian as nice ,giving ,caring.and really good people ,naive too .Because they really believed  that ,the fight over religions but not over power , money and oil. Now from my experience, majorities of Christian ,view  Muslim as backward people anti civliazation,opressed their women,terrorsist
oil producer .Non of the western world have given any credit for Moslems and arab for there contribution to civilization. Ever known to humanity and had been made by muslin and Arab. And if u have any doubt  there  is more than 500 books  about  these subject, new generation should understand the Muslim not fear them .We should build  together not destroy .We  should love one another .Let our differences be learning lesson for our kids, remember we can learn from the west . And the  west can learn from us. When the west was over 1000's years in the dark they even didn't have running  water in there houses the Muslim helped  them to build .Showed them to get water to their houses.  We  teached Europe every thing they know. The islamic empire has fallen .the Muslim people didn't .They are behind know but the gap is not that big .I WISH  IN  THE  END THERE  WILL  BE MORE PEOPLE LIKE ME AND U TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN OUR LIVE AND THE WHOLE WORLD. it doesn't matter if  ur  christian,muslim or jewish..as long ur human.
