THE REASONS OF KNOWING ISLAM WRONGLY: 1- Unfortunately, Most of human exactly does not know Islam according to Islam. Most of mankind has lost its own sense faculties because those people are in comfort, amusement, has the passion of earn much money. Most of human is in being drunk of amusament, football, music, secularism, ideologies. Sustanance and blessings are not favour of Allah. They are all handle of trial. Satan shows evil to Islam to Non-Muslims. By going through the teachings of Islam, it is clear that such a religion has only come to benefit mankind - not to destroy it. So why is there so much hatred for this noble religion in the West? The answer is simple, the media. It is the Jewish influenced media of the West which has portrayed Islam to be something that it is not. Those are who wanted to deceive human beings, always attack Islam. With regret, some people knowingly change translations of Holy Qur'an. This unkind behavior causes that some people can misunderstand Holy Qur'an. Learn Islam from true sources. Islam have illuminated universe. Islam is the soul of universe. Some people can not understand Qur'an and completely can not profit by Qur'an since they have not belief in hereafter. Belive hereafter acoording to Islam.

Your Allah is One Allah, Allah is alone worthy of worship). But for those who believe not in the Hereafter, their hearts deny (the faith in the Oneness of Allah), and they are proud.(16; 22)

Had We sent down this Qur'an on a mountain, verily, thou wouldst have seen it humble itself and cleave asunder for fear of Allah. Such are the similitudes which We propound to men that they may reflect. (Al-Hasr, 21)

2- Most of men approached with prejudices, glasses of horse and in a deviation. However If they had not approached with prejudice, bigotry and idea obsession. they would have understood Islam. Some of men understand completely way of life is a great problem. This idea is not valid for Islam. This idea is a conjecture and fictitious. Islam presents Divine Laws that guide all aspects of life by distinguishing right from wrong."

3- Deeds of hypocrites who are the one of the greatest enemy of Islam.

4- Most of men confuses with Muslim and Islam. Islam is excellent. There is no fault in Islam. Muslim is a Human being. The Human being can mistake. Islam doesn't want to commit a sin, make a mistake. Mistakes, crimes, sins never attribute Islam. There is no a community of representation in Islam. Communities never represent Islam. Muslims only serve Allah with utmost sincerity.

5- Muslims exactly did not submit Islam with a great sincerity. Most of governments usually did not govern according to Islam. The effect of Islam had not showed in Europe in spite of paths of tasawwuf (Sufism, mysticism). Tasawwuf is a false way and Bid'ah (innovation). Tasawwuf is not existing in Islam. Non-Muslims and partisans have affected these countries for destroying Islam with their all powers. At the other side Non-Muslims countries, especially Imperialists, missionaries and Zionists powers, exploit for own self benefits As countries Which Muslims lived have wealths.
