Direct quotes from the Koran in relation to September 11: possible justification used by Islamic militants for 9/11 and other acts of terror

"O thou Prophet! strive strenuously against the infidels and the hypocrites, and be harsh against them; for their resort is hell, and an ill journey shall it be" Sura 9:73

"But when the sacred months are passed away, kill the idolaters wherever you may find them; and take them, and besiege them, and lie in wait for them in every place of observation; but if they repent, and are steadfast in prayer, and give alms, then let them go their way; verily, Allah is forgiving and merciful." Sura 9:5

"When you meet the unbelievers, smite their necks, then when you have made wide slaughter among them, tie fast bonds... and those who are slain in the way of Allah, He will not send their works astray, He will guide them... and admit them to Paradise..." Sura 47:4-6

"There is no compulsion in religion; the right has been distinquished from the wrong, and whoso disbelieves in false deities and believes in Allah, he has got hold of the firm handle in which is no breaking off; but Allah both hears and knows"
Sura 9:73

"... whoever repents after his wrongdoing and makes amends Allah will relent toward him. Lo Allah is forgiving, merciful." Sura 5:39-40
