    I did read the article. There is no specific reference to lying to defend Islam, unless you can point one out. Reference 13 that charlesmartel quoted refers to impudence or rudeness being undesirable. It does not give a green light to lying about Islam.

    @BlackDog,

    From the link you provided:

    Quote
    Shia authority, Ayatollah Sistani describes the concept of taqiyya as follows:

    1) Taqiyah is done for safety reasons. For example, a person fears that he might be killed or harmed, if he does not observe Taqiyah. In this case, it is obligatory to observe Taqiyah.
    2) Reconciliatory Taqiyah. This type of Taqiyah is done when a person intends to reconcile with the other side or when he intends to soften their hearts. This kind of Taqiyah is permissible but not obligatory.

    The reference that I quoted was from probably the number one site of shias, and the author, in order to prove that Sunnis can't disclaim taqiyya, was referring to Muhammad's behavior as practicing taqiyya. And what was Muhammad's behavior? Was it necessitated by some kind of threat to his life? The reference proves that taqiyya is nothing but deception, and for any reason, as long as one can justify it.

    Taqiyya is generally considered to be a shia doctrine, and if Shia themselves understand it as deception or lying, why should we think otherwise?

    Even if Muslims were lying in order to deceive non Muslims to advance their religious agenda, it would be erroneous to call it Taqiyah, because, as so many people have pointed out to you, that is not what Taqiyyah is!


    Quote
    My interpretation has to be true because I back myself with logic and proofs. Read the link and refute my claim that islam sponsors terrorism if you  can.I have provided quran as well as hadiths to back my claims so there is no excuse for any muslim to claim that islam doesn?t sponsor terrorism.If  I am refuted I will stand corrected.



    How does it "have to be true"? You just create a link with no real evidence. In your opinion, the Qur'an and Hadith give legitimacy to terrorism. Muslims you speak to say this is not true. Therefore, in your opinion, these Muslims are lying in order to deceive non Muslims. You fail to take any other factors into account. You fail to take into account that the Muslims you speak to may actually be telling the truth about what they believe. You fail to take into account that different Muslims interpret the Qur'an and Hadith differently, in order to fit in with their fundamental beliefs. You fail to take into account that the verses and hadiths in question are taken by a lot of Muslims in the context of their time and circumstances. And most importantly, you fail to take into account that many Muslims do not know about these verses and hadiths. So your assertion that your interpretation "has to be true" is absolutely farcical.

    @All

    Those who disagree with me lets just go to any islamic forum and open a  thread titled "Does islam sponsor terrorism". Lets provide them all the convincing proofs in this world from islamic scriptures to prove that islam sponsors terrorism.I shall write in a way that none can disagree even if he has enmity with me . After that lets take a poll as to how many agree that islam does indeed promote terrorism.SOme might think that I am sending people on wild goose chase. ACtually we dont even need to go there and do this. We all know how many people would agree that islam promotes terrorism. Atleast 95 % of muslims would say "No" Islam doesnt promote terrorism.There lies the answer to whether they lie or not!


    Here's a wild thought. Could it be that maybe they truly believe that Islam does not sponsor terrorism?

    @OSMANTHUS

    Quote from: Aliadiere
    , could you please respond again once you understand Taqiyyah.

    If you ask Sunni Muslims, the vast majority of them would not know what it is. It is not a Sunni Muslim concept, it is a Shia concept. And even then, the whole point of taqiyya is to conceal faith when under threat. The purpose of Taqiyyah is not to conceal your faith in a covert bid to deceive people about Islam in a bid for world domination.

    So to say that Muslims are using Taqiyyah in an effort to take control of the west is farcical.

    By the way, I have also heard a Sunni Muslim saying that Shias are using Taqiyyah in the same way that your lot say that Muslims use Taqiyyah; i.e. a sinister bid to deceive in order to promote their religious agenda. This leads me to conclude that an accusation of Taqiyyah is a useful tool to use in order to attack your opponent


    YA I checked it . Here is what I found on WIkipedia.

    Quote from: Wikipedia
    The word "al-taqiyya" literally means: "Concealing or disguising one's beliefs, convictions, ideas, feelings, opinions, and/or strategies at a time of imminent danger, whether now or later in time, to save oneself from physical and/or mental injury." In political terms, it is used by critics of Islam to describe what they see as intentional concealment of Islamic doctrines in order to gain influence and deceive so-called "enemies of Islam". A one-word translation would be "dissimulation." [4][citation needed]


     http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taqiyya


    What is meant by "Mental Injury" here? .I see losing of islam  as a mental injury for muslims.When islam loses credibility isnt it a mental injury for muslims? They do feel bad and thats why I see  Taqiyya does mean  lying for protecting integrity of islam. . Also see the last sentence that I have bolded.



    Btw its just not me who thinks Taqiyya is lying about islam . Here are a few articles making the same claim:


    http://www.islam-watch.org/Warner/Taqiyya-Islamic-Principle-Lying-for-Allah.htm

    Yes, it truly IS awesome. The al-islam site thinks that Muhammad practiced taqiyya. Do you disagree with them? You should take up the issue with the shia site I quoted Smiley.

    Sure you can find articles making that same claim on sites you favour. I'm not going to be flabbergasted by that revelation. Also note that Wiki does not say that your definition of taqiyya is a valid one. It basically just says you have nicked the word and put your own spin on it. That would be fine if you were just talking about your own opinions, but you are trying to make a case that this is an Islamic doctrine justified by the relevant texts. That is an entirely different kettle of fish.

    In any case, taqiyya is still only a Shia concept and not a Sunni one. Shia are only a minority of Muslims, so taqiyya is still not relevant to the vast majority of Muslims.

    Do you truly think you asked me a great question? Anyway, I will answer your question in a straightforward manner.

    1. Yes, I do sometimes what Muhammad did in that example. How often, I truly don't know.
    2. That does not have some divine sanction for me.
    3. The deception I carry out has no chance of becoming life/freedom threatening to the person deceived, while the Islamic taqiyya with respect to kuffar is intended to lull them in a false sense of security and comfort till the Allah's religion is established in their land. And kuffar ARE lulled; majority of them not seeing Islam as the threat it is is ample proof of this. This is the main reason of my worries. Who would worry about some one pretending to be nice merely for courtesy's sake?

    I hope I have answered your question to your satisfaction. By the way, what do you now say about Islamic taqiyya being meant only for preventing the danger?

    Even this site claims the same definition.Btw I didnt use a spin because what I said perfectly is acceptable as per the definition so lying for the sake of islam does constitute  Taqiyya. YOu can find the definition on so many sites .Here is one of the muslim site that tells us the same definition.

    http://www.al-islam.org/Encyclopedia/chapter6b/1.html

    I aint denying your definition of Taqiyya. My claim is that Taqiyya also includes lying for the sake of islam in addition to what you said.

    Also I have addressed this that its A shia concept.SEe again ..

     Even If we assume that  Taqiyya isnt found in Sunni islam it doesnt matter. IF a sunni islam does what Shia muslim does when he/ she practices Taqiyya dont we get the right to accuse the sunni muslim of playing Taqiyya. The concept of Taqiyya originates in Shia but if the concept is followed by a sunni he should be accused of playing Taqiyya.ITs just a concept. A sunni muslim too plays TAqiyya when he does exactly what Taqiyya is supposed to mean!

    Aliadiere its clear that you havent read the link . I have posted undeniable proofs which without doubts establish that islam promotes terrorism.

Proofs speak for themselves.You claim that there  could be different interpretation then please show me one . Please read the link I gave and try  refuting it.Show me that a interpretation other than what I say is possible.Also I said that I cant blame the muslim for lying if he is unaware.

    Also, you still haven't shown me anywhere that it says you are specifically allowed to lie about Islam. Being polite is not the same thing. If you want to make a case that Shia (not Sunni) doctrine allows specifically telling lies about Islam then produce the evidence.

    Not to be rude but read your own link . The verse does not say anything about lying for the sake of Islam. I even highlighted it for you. Yes I did read your previous posts you said that Jihad unquestionably permits offensive fighting and terrorism. Once again many Muslims have different interpretations on the Qur'an such as which verses abrogate which and so on. Not even Muslims scholars are in agreement about this issue.
