In India, this Muslim and others were taught the Golden Rule

By Ted Belman

From time to time I have to seek a techie who can solve all my problems on the internet and on my site. I have found that I get very good value by using people from the east.

One person applied for one of the jobs I needed done. His name is Mohammed and he lives in India. I contracted him though I had misgivings due to the fact that he was a Muslim and my site is very anti-Islam. But I hired him anyway. He was very knowledgeable and very pleasant to work with and over time and many more jobs I contracted for, I came to trust him.

I decided to ask him how he felt about Israel. You will be as surprised with his answers as I was.

[6/2/2016 8:02:00 PM] Ted Belman: I want to talk about something if you have a moment.
[6/2/2016 8:02:41 PM] Ted Belman: I wonder how you feel about Israel and the conflict with the Arabs.
[6/2/2016 8:04:03 PM] Mohammed : actualy in our religion the true muslims are the one wo respect others wether different religion color age or what ever to me my relgion taught me to respect others
[6/2/2016 8:04:22 PM] Ted Belman: Where do you live
[6/2/2016 8:04:33 PM] Mohammed : i actulay live in india
[6/2/2016 8:04:51 PM] Ted Belman: in a Muslim area or Hindu area
[6/2/2016 8:04:57 PM] Mohammed : muslim sir
[6/2/2016 8:06:04 PM] Ted Belman: I am surprised that you have been educated so. The Koran says many bad things about the Jews and calls all Muslims to kill them. In Arab countries Muslims are taught to hate the Jews.
[6/2/2016 8:06:25 PM] Mohammed : actualy quran never said that
[6/2/2016 8:06:32 PM] Mohammed : its never like that
[6/2/2016 8:07:11 PM] Mohammed : its the people
[6/2/2016 8:07:58 PM] Ted Belman: As I understand it the Koran said many good things like you were taught but then Mohammed turn against the Jews and said many bad things. The calls to kill the jews may not be in the Koran . If so they are in the Hadiths I believe.
[6/2/2016 8:08:24 PM] Mohammed : hadith are not from allah
[6/2/2016 8:08:35 PM] Mohammed : those are written by people
[6/2/2016 8:08:54 PM] Mohammed : quran teach us to do good
[6/2/2016 8:08:56 PM] Ted Belman: Does Sharia law applu where you lifve. Are gays hanged like in Iran. Are women beaten like in Afghanistan and so on.
[6/2/2016 8:09:09 PM] Mohammed : no sir
[6/2/2016 8:09:16 PM] Mohammed : its not sharia
[6/2/2016 8:09:23 PM] Mohammed : its are the rules made by people
[6/2/2016 8:10:17 PM] Ted Belman: One last thing but first. I will provide you with links where I get my info. if you don’t mind.
[6/2/2016 8:10:31 PM] Mohammed : sure sir
[6/2/2016 8:10:33 PM] Mohammed : you can
[6/2/2016 8:10:41 PM] Ted Belman: I believe that I am right and if you can show me wrong I would appreciate it.
[6/2/2016 8:11:11 PM] Mohammed : muslims shuld rely only one thing
[6/2/2016 8:11:17 PM] Mohammed : that’s quraan
[6/2/2016 8:11:39 PM] Mohammed : quran is our teacher
[6/2/2016 8:11:49 PM] Ted Belman: As I understood the religion, Mohammed is considered the perfect man and by definition everything he did was good. But everything he did was bad in my terms
[6/2/2016 8:13:33 PM] Ted Belman: The Quran has been interpreted and the interpretations have been the law for 13 centuries and by the doctrine of Abrogation, all bad things abrogated the good things which came first.
[6/2/2016 8:14:07 PM] Ted Belman: Did you study in a Muslim school? Did they teach you your religion or did you learn it in the mosque.
[6/2/2016 8:14:29 PM] Mohammed : i learned in mosque
[6/2/2016 8:14:35 PM] Mohammed : and school too
[6/2/2016 8:15:36 PM] Mohammed : i wont say i am a perfect muslim nor i will go in heaven . but it is said in quran islam will be divided into many
[6/2/2016 8:15:50 PM] Mohammed : out of that only 1 will go heaven
[6/2/2016 8:16:16 PM] Ted Belman: This is very good news for me. I am very surprised. Pakistan is nothing like that. Indonesia and Malaysia are both introducing Sharia law which requires the hands of thiefs to be cut off, wives to be stonned etc
[6/2/2016 8:16:37 PM] Mohammed : i too hate that sir
[6/2/2016 8:17:04 PM] Mohammed : quran never said to hurt people
[6/2/2016 8:18:05 PM] Ted Belman: Finally Islam means submission and requires Jihad. Jihad is the duty to conquer the world for Allah. Islam forces people to convert or they get killed. and so on.
[6/2/2016 8:18:19 PM] Mohammed : never
[6/2/2016 8:18:36 PM] Mohammed : islam never forces
[6/2/2016 8:18:43 PM] Mohammed : islam shows the right way
[6/2/2016 8:18:49 PM] Mohammed : its up to people
[6/2/2016 8:18:56 PM] Mohammed : to choose right or wrong
[6/2/2016 8:19:10 PM] Mohammed : but people in the name of islam does
[6/2/2016 8:19:13 PM] Mohammed : i know that
[6/2/2016 8:19:21 PM] Mohammed : and its going on still
[6/2/2016 8:19:23 PM] Ted Belman: I think I am right about what I am saying but it appears you haven’t been taught that. That’s good.
[6/2/2016 8:20:20 PM] Mohammed : sir i am not saying you are wrong. but people does all bad thigns in the name of islam
[6/2/2016 8:20:44 PM] Mohammed : m so sad to say i have seen that.
[6/2/2016 8:21:19 PM] Mohammed : some people are there bad but they preach others. and these people change the mind of innocents
[6/2/2016 8:22:26 PM] Mohammed : since muhammed s.a.s is good people uses his name stories to attract people
[6/2/2016 8:22:32 PM] Mohammed : and inject bad things
[6/2/2016 8:23:33 PM] Ted Belman: What matters is you have a good value system. I took a chance on you and I am very happy with our relationship.
[6/2/2016 8:23:43 PM] Mohammed : thank you sir
[6/2/2016 8:24:16 PM] Mohammed : i am not a perfect muslim nor i am not sure i will go heaven. if allah wills i wil
[6/2/2016 8:24:25 PM] Ted Belman: Do you mind if I send you stuff that some muslims rely on from the Quran to justify all the bad things. I know what I am saying is in the quaran.
[6/2/2016 8:24:36 PM] Mohammed : but what quran teaches is to respect others and do good
[6/2/2016 8:24:56 PM] Ted Belman: have you heard of the doctrine of abrogation
[6/2/2016 8:25:07 PM] Mohammed : not clear of it
[6/2/2016 8:25:16 PM] Mohammed : i dint understand meaning actualy
[6/2/2016 8:25:44 PM] Ted Belman: It is a doctrine of interpretation and it says all later rules trump earlier good rules.
[6/2/2016 8:26:17 PM] Ted Belman: in other wrds the later bad things are deemed to end the earlier good things
[6/2/2016 8:27:56 PM] Mohammed : still i am not sure of it sir
[6/2/2016 8:28:35 PM] Ted Belman: Would you be interested in me sending you the kind of things about Islam that I read every day?
[6/2/2016 8:28:51 PM] Mohammed : no problem sir
[6/2/2016 8:28:54 PM] Mohammed : you can
[6/2/2016 8:29:07 PM] Mohammed : sir
[6/2/2016 8:29:19 PM] Mohammed : i will tell u one things about isis
[6/2/2016 8:29:26 PM] Mohammed : in our religion
[6/2/2016 8:29:30 PM] Mohammed : its said
[6/2/2016 8:29:44 PM] Mohammed : maytr those who fight
[6/2/2016 8:29:48 PM] Mohammed : will go heaven
[6/2/2016 8:30:10 PM] Mohammed : and you know what
[6/2/2016 8:30:38 PM] Mohammed : i guess the heads of isis are injecting innocents with this
[6/2/2016 8:30:50 PM] Mohammed : and they make them belive they are fightinh the truth
[6/2/2016 8:31:08 PM] Mohammed : our religion never teach to hurt any one
[6/2/2016 8:31:23 PM] Mohammed : weather it be an animal we shuldnt hurt it
[6/2/2016 8:31:31 PM] Mohammed : that’s what our religion teaches
[6/2/2016 8:32:08 PM] Mohammed : but i was shocked to see whats in the flag of isis
[6/2/2016 8:32:11 PM] Mohammed : realy shocked
[6/2/2016 8:32:55 PM] Mohammed : our religion have a special power to attract hearts .
[6/2/2016 8:34:06 PM] Ted Belman: I have to tell you that I have been reading about what Islam stands for , for the last 10 years and I believe you are wrong but I am pleased that you have been taught the good earlier values. But I will show you that the true Islam comes from the Koran and I will show you chapter by chapter what the Koran says. Only if you want me to.
[6/2/2016 8:35:43 PM] Mohammed : As i said you know
[6/2/2016 8:35:59 PM] Mohammed : People are the one who is making things bad
[6/2/2016 8:36:24 PM] Mohammed : I dont belive i what most preachers says
[6/2/2016 8:36:33 PM] Ted Belman: They are following the Koran literally.
[6/2/2016 8:36:55 PM] Mohammed : Yes but not truly
[6/2/2016 8:37:18 PM] Mohammed : They are using the good to do bad things
[6/2/2016 8:37:29 PM] Ted Belman: . Enough for now. The main thing is that you have been taught good things and reject bad things.
[6/2/2016 8:37:51 PM] Mohammed : I am a muslim i read quran but quran never said me to hurt anyone
[6/2/2016 8:37:55 PM] Mohammed : I respect others
[6/2/2016 8:38:02 PM] Mohammed : Other religions
[6/2/2016 8:38:04 PM] Mohammed : Everyone
[6/2/2016 8:38:29 PM] Mohammed : I got two  besties (friends)
[6/2/2016 8:38:32 PM] Ted Belman: That’s great
[6/2/2016 8:38:42 PM] Mohammed : One is cristian and other one is hindu
[6/2/2016 8:39:22 PM] Mohammed : If i was behind what bad preachers say i would be behind them to kill my besties
[6/2/2016 8:39:48 PM] Mohammed : Quran or islam says to respects others
[6/2/2016 8:39:53 PM] Mohammed : And help others
[6/2/2016 8:40:25 PM] Mohammed : But people are the one whos is doing bad
[6/2/2016 8:40:59 PM] Ted Belman: So why are Muslims at war with everyone in Asia or Africa and now in Europe.
[6/2/2016 8:41:28 PM] Mohammed : True muslims are only just 1% among them
[6/2/2016 8:41:34 PM] Mohammed : Rest all is bad
[6/2/2016 8:41:56 PM] Mohammed : Quran itself says this
[6/2/2016 8:42:12 PM] Mohammed : When the end cmes
[6/2/2016 8:42:14 PM] Ted Belman: The good muslims are too few in number.
[6/2/2016 8:42:37 PM] Mohammed : Islam will get split into more than 72
[6/2/2016 8:42:45 PM] Mohammed : I gues 72
[6/2/2016 8:42:45 PM] Mohammed : Out of that
[6/2/2016 8:42:45 PM] Mohammed : I am not sure of the number
[6/2/2016 8:42:57 PM] Ted Belman: Enough for now. Lets finish tomorrow so I can pay you.

[6/2/2016 8:45:02 PM] Mohammed : In ‘private’
[6/2/2016 8:45:13 PM] Mohammed : And outside he shws as if hes fasting
[6/2/2016 8:45:25 PM] Mohammed : This is just an example

Regardless of the literal interpretation of the Koran, he was taught the golden rule.
