I don’t know of any other religion today, that needs to be told not to kill people, but I guess this is a good start for the religion of peace and tolerance.
Sheikh Tahir ul-Qadri has issued a 600 page fatwa telling Muslims it is un-Islamic to kill people and that Muslims must stop using suicide bombing and other terror tactics to kill the Infidels. The Sheikh is not the first to issue such a fatwa.
In 2001, the grand Mufti Aal al-Shaykh of Saudi Arabia, delivered a fatwa stating that Islam forbids suicide terrorist attacks.
Within days Fatwa’s were issued against the grand Mufti Aal al-Shaykh
While it is highly unlikely that a fatwa against killing people will do a fat lot of good, it is encouraging to see at least 2 Islamic scholars have brain cells that work. Of course the Quran does not support fatwas against killing the Infidels, as there are over a hundred ayats that say the Infidels must be killed.
It is an undisputable fact that Muslims are NOT to take any non Muslim as a friend or trust them....now how can Muslims be at peace with people they are not to trust? At the end of the day, the Quran wins and both Muslims and non Muslims lose.
People don't trust people who don't trust them.
And yes you can argue that Muslim men can marry Christian or Jewish women...but they can't ever really trust them, because of her family.
And there's the other contradiction, that all food and laws of the people of the book are lawful to Muslims. That doesn't help as Muslims believe all of the original people of the book are dead.
There are ayats that tell Muslims to leave the non Muslims alone and not seek to harm them for their badness. And there are other ayats that say to kill them...which aya to follow, that is the question.

Allah's Apostle said, "Recite and study the Qur'an as long as your hearts are in agreement as to its meanings, but if you have differences as regards its meaning, stop reading it then."
Perhaps some should stop reading it
Other famous fatwas
Tehran, 19 Feb.(AKI) - A 70-year-old man has been sentenced by an Iranian judge to four months in jail and 30 lashes for going out on the street with his dog. He was later charged by an Islamic judge for "disturbing the public order".
Muslim cabdrivers at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport, England, Australia and Norway have refused to take passengers who are carrying alcohol, saying it is against their religion.
Because
The Messenger of Allah cursed ten types of people with regard to wine: the one who presses the grapes, the one for whom it is pressed, the one who drinks it, the one who carries it, the one to whom it is carried, the one who pours it, the one who sells it and consumes its price, the one who buys it and the one for whom it is bought.”
Muslim leaders had issued a fatwa, "Transportation of alcohol for Muslims is against the Islamic faith, and therefore forbidden."
Then the non Muslim employer issued a fatwa saying they’d be fired.
For Hanefi, Safi'i and Maliki sects, masturbation is a sin. For Safi'i and Maliki sects, wives' masturbation is not a sin, on the condition that she does it with her hand.
For clarification, the word ‘sin’ is Hebrew for ‘mistake’. So it would be a mistake if she used a vibrator.
