How about many groups of the KKK who say they just following what bible teaches. How about anti abortion activists who are murdering doctors?>>>

As long as they are violent, they must be hunted and destroyed...Still Muslem Radical Movements are the threat to countries, to the World not just individuals, that is huge difference in response/action required

Good points. However, I believe the Hadiths are a very big part of Islam, which were the recorded sayings and deeds of Mohammed. Is this an incorrect assumption? Every discussion of Islam I've ever read works with both the Qur'an and the Hadiths, not to mention the Al-Qiyas and the Ijma, which are the interpretations of Islamic law handed down by scholars throughout the centuries. What is your understanding, Mani?
-------------
Islamic law is derived from four sources:
a) Qur'an (read or recite): The sacred book of Muslim community containing direct quotes from Allah as allegedly dictated by Gabriel.
b)Hadith (narrative): The collections of Islamic traditions including sayings and deeds of Muhammad as heard by his contemporaries, first, second, and third hand.
c) Al-Qiyas (analogy or comparison): The legal decision drawn by Islamic Jurists based on precedent cases.
d) Ijma' (consensus): The interpretations of Islamic laws handed down by the consensus of reputed Muslim scholars in a certain country.
