They do. I am not associated with any. If you'd like to research it do so on your own. I give to the local relief shelter rather than hand money out on the highway ramps. The Quran says that we should not give our wealth to them but that we should spend it on their care. From what we know about the ramp guys that should make sense to everyone.

As far as I know, the Islamic Relief services that exist are exclusive to giving aid to Muslims who are refugies or in poverty or what not. Most of them have been accused of political corruption and money laundering for our enemies. I don't know how much of that is true and how much is hype.

Muslim Relief services don't tend to reach out to non-Muslims in need, unlike most of the Christian Relief services, like feed the children. There are lots of ways to understand why but part of the explanation for that is that there is a Missionary component to Christian Relief which does not exist in Islamic organizations.

There is a hard coded rule for Islamic belief that requires people who want to be messengers to non-Muslims, in which you are not allowed to use any sort of coercion to convince people toward the belief. They have to accept the message on its own merits. Of course no one ever would if the saw 'the message' as delivered by you guys alone. That should bring cause for you to question your body of knowledge but I figure it will more likely give you cause to boast even louder.

With regards the no coercion rule, that flies in the face of the concept of Islam being spread by the sword doesn't it. Well, people who hate Islam have their way of justifying that explanation as do the Radical Islamists. As you know, I have always seen you extremists as tools of one another and that's how I explain it. G. ZERO, longnshort, and Darren are the greatest treasure chest of threats to the west a Radical Islamist Extremist could ever hope for.
