Guys, you must know it. When muslims behave badly this never means that Islam taught them to behave like this. Why don't you see other muslims who are so civilized and educated and so creative and productive around the world.
And yes my friend it is a clear form of barbarism and never blongs to pure Islam
Have a nice day everyone
