THE EVOLUTION DECEIT
            22


            sion, tolerance and peace can be experienced all over the world. In Surat al-
            Baqara verse 208, Allah addresses the believers as follows:
                 You who believe! Enter absolutely into peace [Islam]. Do not follow in the
                 footsteps of Satan. He is an outright enemy to you.
                 As the verse makes clear, security can only be ensured by 'entering
            into Islam', that is, living by the values of the Qur'an.


                 Allah Has Condemned Wickedness
                 Allah has commanded people to avoid committing evil; He has for-
            bidden disbelief, immorality, rebellion, cruelty, aggressiveness, murder
            and bloodshed. He describes those who fail to obey this command as "fol-
            lowing in Satan's footsteps" and adopting a posture that is openly revealed
            to be sinful in the Qur'an. A few of the many verses on this matter in the
            Qur'an read:
                 But as for those who break Allah's contract after it has been agreed and
                 sever what Allah has commanded to be joined, and cause corruption in the
                 earth, the curse will be upon them. They will have the Evil Abode. (Surat
                 ar-Ra'd: 25)
                 Seek the abode of the hereafter with what Allah has given you, without
                 forgetting your portion of the world. And do good as Allah has been good
                 to you. And do not seek to cause mischief on earth. Allah does not love
                 mischief makers.' (Surat al-Qasas: 77)
                 As we can see, Allah has forbidden every kind of mischievous acts in
            the religion of Islam including terrorism and violence, and condemned
            those who commit such deeds. A Muslim lends beauty to the world and
            improves it.


                 Islam Defends Being Understanding and Freedom of Speech

                 Islam is a religion which provides and guarantees freedom of ideas,
            thought and life. It has issued commands to prevent and forbid tension,
            disputes, slander and even negative thinking among people.
                 In the same way that it is determinedly opposed to terrorism and all
            acts of violence, it has also forbidden even the slightest ideological pres-
            sure to be put on them:
                 There is no compulsion in religion. Right guidance has become clearly dis-
                 tinct from error. Anyone who rejects false gods and believes in Allah has
                 grasped the Firmest Handhold, which will never give way. Allah is All-
