Monu. The Hadith elaborates on these points. I'm sorry but I don't have the references at the moment. I'll gather and send them. Your points about sex aren't consistent. Many of the prophets and figures of the Bible were polygamous for instance. Do you condemn them? Does God? Also, no where in the bible does it declare sex before marriage a sin. I don't see this in the ten commandments. "Adultery" is cheating on your mate. You can't do this if you aren't married. Jesus was not known to be married and he had friendships with prostitutes. He was a man. He enjoyed food and wine. Why not sex? It isn't dirty or immoral, only adultery is. Islam takes a much more relaxed view towards sex. Mohammad had lots of wives. So what? So did many figures in the Bible. That isn't adultery. The fixation on sex is a very Christian thing, not found in most other religions. I have studied Jesus for years, as well as the other prophets. I use to be a Christian, as did my group of friends. But Mohammed was the seal of the prophets, and Allah made his word known in the Qu'ran. Billions have seen this light. Islam is the world's fastest growing religion. Just as the old Christian middle east and north african states were converted, so it will be for America and the rest of the world. Truth always triumphs in the end, Allah be praised.
