Islam is against unprovoked aggression, war, murder, invasion etc.

Most Non Muslims and even some Muslims today believe that Islam is a violent religion, commanding Muslims to fight, slay, and kill all Non Muslims, this view has mainly come about because of the negative stereotyping, a propaganda war against Islam, and the actions of a few deranged "Muslims". However, when we look at the religion itself, it becomes clear that Islam is not a violent religion commanding unprovoked violence, but actually commands the opposite, quite explicitly. How ever i will state now that Islam is not a pacifist religion, people who attack you or your country, in according with Islam, are to be put down with force, and force is allowed to free oppressed and persecuted people. However, it is not permitted to commit unprovoked violence. God hates this.
The following verses from the Qur'an will explain this.

2:190 - And fight in the cause of God against those who fight you, but do not aggress, God does not love the aggressors.

2:193 - And fight them so there is no more persecution, and so that the system is for God. If they cease, then there will be no aggression except against the aggressors.


2:194 - The restricted month may be met with in the restricted month, and what is unlawful may be met with retaliation. Whoever attacks you, then you shall attack him the same as he attacked you; and be aware of God, and know that God is with the righteous.


4:91 - You will find others who wish to make peace with you, and also with their people. However, as soon as war erupts, they fight against you. Unless these people leave you alone, offer you peace, and stop fighting you, you may fight them when you encounter them. Against these, we give you a clear authorization.

5:87 - O you who believe, do not make unlawful the good things that God has made lawful to you, and do not aggress; God does not love the aggressors.


7:33 - Say, "My Lord prohibits only evil deeds, be they obvious or hidden, and sins, and unjustifiable aggression, and to set up beside God powerless idols, and to say about God what you do not know." 

8:61 - And if they seek peace, then you also seek it, and put your trust in God. He is the Hearer, the Knowledgeable.

9:13 - Would you not fight people who violated their treaties, tried to banish the messenger, and they are the ones who started the war in the first place? Are you afraid of them? God is the One you are supposed to fear, if you are believers.

42:42 - The wrong ones are those who treat the people unjustly, and resort to aggression without provocation. These have incurred a painful retribution.

49:9 - If two groups of believers fought with each other, you shall reconcile them. If one group aggresses against the other, you shall fight the aggressing group until they submit to God's command. Once they submit, you shall reconcile the two groups equitably. You shall maintain justice; God loves those who are just.


60:8-9 - God does not prohibit you from befriending those who do not fight you because of religion, and do not evict you from your homes. You may befriend them and be equitable towards them. God loves the equitable. God prohibits you only from befriending those who fight you because of religion, evict you from your homes, and band together with others to banish you. You shall not befriend them. Those who befriend them are the transgressors.
