Here is the complete exact translation of that verse:

"(189) Fight in the cause of Allah those who fight you but do not transgress limits; for Allah loveth not transgressors. (190) And slay them wherever ye catch them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out; for tumult and oppression are worse than slaughter; but fight them not at the Sacred Mosque, unless they (first) fight you there; but if they fight you slay them. Such is the reward of those who suppress faith. (191) But if they cease, Allah is Oft-Forgiving Most Merciful. (192) And fight them on until there is no more tumult or oppression and there prevail justice and faith in Allah; but if they cease let there be no hostility except to those who practise oppression. (193) The prohibited month―for the prohibited month―and so for all things prohibited there is the law of equality. If then anyone transgresses the prohibition against you, transgress ye likewise against him. But fear Allah and know that Allah is with those who restrain themselves." -surat albaqara

doesn't that make more sense? You only fight those who fights you, and if they stopped you stopped because Allah is merciful.

"Did you ever wonder that maybe you think some parts of the Quran contradict each other to you because Arabic is not your first language"

Would you care to reconcile "kill them wherever you find them" with a concept of preciousness of human life (both items are found in the Koran).

MAS,
Did you ever wonder that maybe you think some parts of the Quran contradict each other to you because Arabic is not your first language, maybe if you tried harder to understand it, or asked someone to help you with it it would make more sense to you?
From what I have read of what you believe, you seem to take only small verses and judge, when you're not reading the whole story.

MJ,

We agree with Five Pillars part. Articles of Faith part is a little more complicated. Not only some parts of the Koran contradict each other, but there are some parts of the Koran that contradict the Bible.

It so sad how some people cant even perform the five basic pillars of Islam.

They should be grateful we aren't praying 50 times a day. -Props to Prophet Musa (asws)-
