For god's sake? God needs people running around killing each other?
God's sake= everything that is good. Including justice. If that means someone committed a crime so bad that his punishment is death, so be it, that is justice, for God's sake.

So, basically, Muslims have to have their courtrooms judged by God, but it is okay for everyone else in the world to have a human judge?
Just because our laws are designed by God, doesn't mean he has to be the one who judges by them.
I'm pretty sure the guy who originally wrote the laws that Britain runs by isn't the one who still judges all the court cases.
Why should it be any different with Muslim? The only difference is that our law was written by God, and is handled by humans, while all other laws were written by humans and are handled by humans.
Seriously, why the double standards?
Oh, and don't worry, God will set up up his own court- the ultimate court, on the Day of Judgement. Any injustice that occured in this life will be fixed up then.
.Where the hell did I say I was talking about OBL?
I was talking about capital punishment.
We can only respond to what you actually write. You wrote that killing in the name of God is justice. That sounds pretty scary to me. You made no reference to capital punishment or anything like that. I'm glad that you specified after the fact though. You're not as scary as you made yourself appear.
But when you go casually saying things like "KIlling for God is Justice" is it any wonder that Islamophobia runs rampant?

LOL. Nice to know.
Sorry, you are right, I need to be a little bit more careful. I thought what I meant was pretty obvious... I guess not... at least not to non-Muslims anyway.
Satan was an angel who was given a beautiful name "bringer of light" but selfishly wanted things that were not for him, and would do any horrible thing to get what he wants...
Iblis was the chief of the angels formerly known as Azazil (Lucifer), there are arguments saying that Iblis himself is not an angel, but a jinn. His descendants are known as "Shaytan" (Satan).
Angels are made from the light, satans from fire, jinns from smoke and humans from clay.

Iblis is of the jinn.
Behold! We said to the angels, "Bow down to Adam": They bowed down except Iblis. He was one of the Jinns, and he broke the Command of his Lord. Will ye then take him and his progeny as protectors rather than Me? And they are enemies to you! Evil would be the exchange for the wrong-doers!

My tears testify that i have a heart
yet i feel me and shaytan never part
