I actually never said a bad word about Islam, I have been asked by the university I work for to write about it and I have been asked by Buddhist monks here to comment on it (the bad things in general) actually I never even spoke of it until there was a post suggesting that Buddhism was part of Islam now I have a really bad attitude. To spite the country where I live monks, school teachers,woman and children in the south are slaughtered in the name of Allah everyday I now have a personal mission and want to expose Islam for what it really is.
I have friends whose families have been destroyed by people who call themselves muslims over the course of the last 160+ years. Muhammed did not do it and the Qur'an did not command it to be done.
Human behavior causes karma--good or ill. But it's human behavior.
Detachment is not just a Buddhist concept:
"Now is the moment in which to cleanse thyself with the waters of detachment that have flowed out from the Supreme Pen, and to ponder, wholly for the sake of God, those things which, time and again, have been sent down or manifested, and then to strive, as much as lieth in thee, to quench, through the power of wisdom and the force of thy utterance, the fire of enmity and hatred which smouldereth in the hearts of the peoples of the world. The Divine Messengers have been sent down, and their Books were revealed, for the purpose of promoting the knowledge of God, and of furthering unity and fellowship amongst men. But now behold, how they have made the Law of God a cause and pretext for perversity and hatred. How pitiful, how regrettable, that most men are cleaving fast to, and have busied themselves with, the things they possess, and are unaware of, and shut out as by a veil from, the things God possesseth!
Say: "O God, my God! Attire mine head with the 13 crown of justice, and my temple with the ornament of equity. Thou, verily, art the Possessor of all gifts and bounties."
Justice and equity are twin Guardians that watch over men. From them are revealed such blessed and perspicuous words as are the cause of the well-being of the world and the protection of the nations."
(Baha'u'llah, Epistle to the Son of the Wolf, p. 12)
Whose minds are well perfected
In the Factors of Enlightenment,
Who without clinging, delight in detachment-
They, the corruption-free, radiant ones,
Have attained Nibbana in the Here-and-Now.
(Buddhist, Dhammapada - Sayings of the Buddha 3 (tr. J. Richards))
