"The strong man is not the good wrestler; the strong man is only the one who controls himself when he is angry."
-Prophet Muhammad, from Sayings of Muhammad by Prof. Ghazi Ahmad

Islam is NOT a religion ...
... that preaches violence and the Prophet Mohamed (pbuh) was not a man that advocated for war and blood shed. These are stereotypes passed along, virally and hatefully, to the masses. Do not believe the words of the ignorant, fear-mongers. Please read books and make up your own mind.

That's almost exactly what the Talmud says!
"Who is strong? He who suppresses his evil inclinations, as it is written (Proverbs 16:32) 'Better is a patient man than a strong man, and one who rules over his spirit than one who captures a city.'" (Ethics of the Fathers 4:1)
