AB - It's really hard to know, because on one hand we hear from lovely peaceful Muslim people who tell us this violence is contrary to their core religious beliefs. The man in Glasgow who has been murdered belonged to a sect within Islam that preaches peace and wishes to reach out to other religions, I think they would be a minority and are clearly reviled by those who do not wish to get along with their neighbours, the ones who would say that it is their duty to kill the "Kuffir" non Muslims, apostates, stone adulterers, chuck homosexuals off a mountain, which version does the lay person believe. Personally I have no desire to wade through their scriptures, but I understand the Haddith is full of violent directives. A recent article by journalist Yasmin Allibah Brown, herself a Muslim, stated that as many as 30% of young Muslims would not condemn indiscriminate killing of innocent people, so it's very hard to weigh up how Muslims in the west are lined up. Manifestly, at the moment it does not come across as a religion of peace anymore than Christianity did in the Middle ages.
