Does this mean that the Muslims have to kill me? I am very  frightened and confused. Can you please explain?<\/p>\n<h3>Answer<\/h3>\n<p>I  am afraid you have not understood the correct Islamic view on this  issue. It is merely because of misconceptions that some Muslims hold  that they are obliged to prepare themselves and force the non Muslims  into accepting Islam or paying <em>jizyah<\/em>. They are not actually out  to kill people except some of the groups we are well aware of. Majority  Muslims are not in favor of war like for example some extremist Muslim  groups have waged against some of the non Muslim countries. However  learned among the upholders of the above view also know that Islam does  not allow any kind of terrorist activities. They intend to establish  themselves and they declare war openly before taking any action.<\/p>\n<div>This  is how the different groups of the Muslims believe but much is needed  before taking any action. We live in a world where the intention and  preparation of any such groups cannot remain hidden. Non Muslims can  take any measures of security they deem appropriate on the basis of  sound information and likely threats.<\/div>\n<p><strong>Answered by:<\/strong> Tariq Mahmood Hashmi<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:<\/strong> 2015-01-22<\/p>\n<button class=\"simplefavorite-button\" data-postid=\"6306\" data-siteid=\"1\" data-groupid=\"1\" data-favoritecount=\"0\" style=\"\">Favorite <i class=\"sf-icon-star-empty\"><\/i><\/button>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am a Christian living here in America with  my family.
