Muslim women here in Canada are not subject to the same lifestyle as they would be in Islamic countries. They choose to follow the Islamic faith only in ways they feel are applicable to them and what they want personally. Not what the faith demands of them. There is a great difference.

chapter 5 verse 32 in the quran tells us this \n\nSahih International: Because of that, We decreed upon the Children of Israel that whoever kills a soul unless for a soul or for corruption [done] in the land – it is as if he had slain mankind entirely. And whoever saves one – it is as if he had saved mankind entirely. And our messengers had certainly come to them with clear proofs. Then indeed many of them, [even] after that, throughout the land, were transgressors.\n\nPickthall: For that cause We decreed for the Children of Israel that whosoever killeth a human being for other than manslaughter or corruption in the earth, it shall be as if he had killed all mankind, and whoso saveth the life of one, it shall be as if he had saved the life of all mankind. Our messengers came unto them of old with clear proofs (of Allah's Sovereignty), but afterwards lo! many of them became prodigals in the earth.\n\nYusuf Ali: On that account: We ordained for the Children of Israel that if any one slew a person - unless it be for murder or for spreading mischief in the land - it would be as if he slew the whole people: and if any one saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of the whole people. Then although there came to them Our messengers with clear signs, yet, even after that, many of them continued to commit excesses in the land.\n\nShakir: For this reason did We prescribe to the children of Israel that whoever slays a soul, unless it be for manslaughter or for mischief in the land, it is as though he slew all men; and whoever keeps it alive, it is as though he kept alive all men; and certainly Our messengers came to them with clear arguments, but even after that many of them certainly act extravagantly in the land.\n\nMuhammad Sarwar: For this reason, We made it a law for the children of Israel that the killing of a person for reasons other than legal retaliation or for stopping corruption in the land is as great a sin as murdering all of mankind. However, to save a life would be as great a virtue as to save all of mankind. Our Messengers had come to them with clear authoritative evidence but many of them (Israelites) thereafter started doing wrong in the land.\n\nMohsin Khan: Because of that We ordained for the Children of Israel that if anyone killed a person not in retaliation of murder, or (and) to spread mischief in the land - it would be as if he killed all mankind, and if anyone saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of all mankind. And indeed, there came to them Our Messengers with clear proofs, evidences, and signs, even then after that many of them continued to exceed the limits (e.g. by doing oppression unjustly and exceeding beyond the limits set by Allah by committing the major sins) in the land!.\n\nArberry: Therefore We prescribed for the Children of Israel that whoso slays a soul not to retaliate for a soul slain, nor for corruption done in the land, shall be as if he had slain mankind altogether; and whoso gives life to a soul, shall be as if he ha given life to mankind altogether. Our Messengers have already come to them with the clear signs; then many of them thereafter commit excesses in the earth.

What makes you muslims so attracted to the west ??? you hate our way of life, we hate your way of life, you bring what you are running from with you, why ? You should look at how we live before you come here. If you did, you would determine that this is NOT a place for you. Why do you not go to a country who shares your values i/o coming here and trying to change what makes Canada great.....you are selfish, inconsiderate and extremely arrogant !!!!

The full niqab - what a great outfit for robbing banks or hiding bombs - there is no way men would be able to conceal themselves this way and there is no way women should be allowed to conceal their identity. And to boot there is nothing in the Koran saying women should wear the niqab - it is a much older tribal custom.

Funny how so many liberals choose to lump Christianity and Judaism with Islam. Nice try. In fact there are NO Islamic leaders EVER who have spoken out against the extremes of their own.\nAnd the other two? How about Moses and Christ? Charlemagne ? Bishop Odo? Luther? Chesterton? C.S. Lewis? Adam Smith? Lincoln? Tutu? King? Uh-huh.\nOh and it was Mormons, Quakers, and the Amish who spoke out against injustice towards natives. And the old liberal axiom that religion 'causes' wars? Gee no shit huh? You mean compared to the secular record of warfare and that of pagan empires and atheist dictators? Gawd. Where would we start? Rome? Babylon? Attila? Khan? Two World Wars?\nAnd finally, thank you all on the Left for your constant search for 'harmony' and perfection. Total peace of course meaning lock-step and dissent branded as 'hurtful' or 'intolerant'. Indeed.\nAnd so an ideology that has given us Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Castro, Chavez, the National Socialist German Workers Party, and countless others. Why, I'm sure the world greatly appreciates a form of mind that worships on the alters of the self and the state.

You come to Canada for whatever reason then you Should convert yourself to be Canadian !!\nWe Canadians take take Great Offensive when you want Canadians to bend to your will and that will never Work !!!!\nthere's a lot of other countries that would accept you're ideology ...But Canada will not !!!!\nbe a Canadian we are not in Your Country YOU'RE IN OURS !!!! \nassimilate to our country or leave !!!!

I'm tolerant, liberal individual, I'm qualified and speak English fluently, always wanted to move to Canada but they make it really difficult for me, oh boy if only I was an Islamic fanatic who believes those who question my religion should be beheaded, then they would open the doors wide for me as it seems.\n\nSame goes to the UK, they let everybody that they shouldn't let, in, those who would try to absorb the culture and make it better, they don't let them in, great policy.

Funny there religion is so great but they do what ever they can to leave there own country then the others follow and they have to follow out of fear, they drink, smoke, weed and lie cause in there home land they would be punished, but they know rest of the world uses common since so they try to get educated from other countries and learn the truth, which scares them even more, cause they are a shame like there religion

Great Britain is not an Islam country so I don't believe they can enforce there law upon our people. I am happy with Muslims worshiping there god at there mosque as religious believers should be entitled to go to a place for worship but these kind of beliefs are outrageous ! I would not have anyone tell me what I can do in my home country. I am absolutely against Religion and these things actually push why I hate it! I am not against religious people (as some can be accepting and ok people) but I am against what it can do to people and what it has caused. 

It would be a GREAT idea.

No, no it wouldn't be a race war. It's about Islam not their ethnicity. There are Arab Christians who take great pride in being British and they would oppose these thugs. Actually it wouldn't be a war. It would be simply cleaning up the neighborhoods of Islamic bullies and cowards. I live very close to the main mosque in Denver and there are a lot of Muslims. Not once have I had any challenge me and I'm a 65 year old disable man. They need to know their limits in no uncertain terms.\nThomas

you never would have been born if your great grandparents who had the good sense to keep the Muslims out had talked like that. your betraying them and all future generations\n

Hahaha That's what they wanted You would also invite them to their home country at all let you give them benefits and build their mosques: D: D: D France, Germany and Great Britain are Muslim countries
