No, you're wrong. No offense but you're spouting the same BS as all the other islamic apologists who have never opened the Qu'ran.
The Qu'ran is not being misinterpreted - the hard line islamists and those who fight for islam are the true believers and hold a higher place in heaven according to the Qu'ran (4:95).
Islam regularly challenges other faiths and talks about killing unbelievers (not just that unbelievers will burn in the fire and all the other graphic details of how they will be tortured in hell, it specifically compells muslims to fight them now) -
"
Fight those who do not believe in Allah or in the Last Day and who do not consider unlawful what Allah and His Messenger have made unlawful and who do not adopt the religion of truth from those who were given the Scripture - [fight] until they give the jizyah willingly while they are humbled." (9:29)
This isn't a misinterpreted quote from an anti-islamist, this is a quote from the pro-islam quran.com, and there are many more like it.
Don't fall into the trap of believing the media's politically correct views. Don't say it's just the fault of individuals or extreme preachers, take a look at the book that they're getting it from! It's the Qu'ran that's fundamentally at fault, it reads like a case study for brainwashing an army and is anything but peaceful.
My personal favourite:
"
Indeed, those who disbelieve in Our verses - We will drive them into a Fire. Every time their skins are roasted through We will replace them with other skins so they may taste the punishment. Indeed, Allah is ever Exalted in Might and Wise." (4:56)
And as for women being treated equally... lol!
And bring to witness two witnesses from among your men.
And if there are not two men [available], then a man and two women from those whom you accept as witnesses - so that if one of the women errs, then the other can remind her.
24:31
And tell the believing women to lower their gaze and be modest, and to display of their adornment only that which is apparent, and to draw their veils over their bosoms, and not to reveal their adornment save to their own husbands
4:34
Men are in charge of women by [right of] what Allah has given one over the other and what they spend [for maintenance] from their wealth. So righteous women are devoutly obedient, guarding in [the husband's] absence what Allah would have them guard.
But those [wives] from whom you fear arrogance - [first] advise them; [then if they persist], forsake them in bed; and [finally], strike them. But if they obey you [once more], seek no means against them. Indeed, Allah is ever Exalted and Grand.
Another one of the thousands of quotes creating an "us against them" mentality in the Qu'ran:
4:101 And when you travel throughout the land, there is no blame upon you for shortening the prayer, [especially] if you fear that those who disbelieve may disrupt [or attack] you.
Indeed, the disbelievers are ever to you a clear enemy.
Again note, these quotes are all from quran.com and are not biased against islam or misinterpreted. I feel like I should also find one of the verses that says that a true believer must follow every word of the Quran, just to really put in perspective that it's the moderate muslims who are misinterpreting it.
