Fanaticism, violence, rigidity is condemned and rejected because God says:
“Let there be no compulsion In religion: truth stands out Clear from error:”(Qur’an;2:256)
“Your Lord has decreed mercy upon Himself. If anyone among you commits evil because of ignorance and thereafter repents and mends his ways; you will find Allah Forgiving, Merciful."(Qur’an;6:54)
“If you avoid the great sins which you have been forbidden, We will do away with your small sins and cause you to enter a place of great honor (paradise).”(Qur’an;4:31, similarly at 53:32).
“Invite (all) to the way of Thy Lord with wisdom and preaching; and argue with them In ways that are best and Most gracious:”(Qur’an;16:125)
“..if they surrender (to God) they shall be rightly guided but if they turn back, you need not worry, because your sole responsibility is to convey the Message. God is watching all His servants very closely.”(Qur’an3:20).
“As for such [of the unbelievers] as do not fight against you on account of [your] faith, and neither drive you forth from your homelands, God does not forbid you to show them kindness and to behave towards them with full equity: for, verily, God loves those who act equitably. God only forbids you to turn in friendship towards such as fight against you because of [your] faith, and drive you forth from your homelands, or aid [others] in driving you forth: and as for those [from among you] who turn towards them in friendship; it is they, they who are truly wrongdoers! (Qur’an;60:8-9)
Study of Religion is incomplete without knowing 'The Message of The Qur'an', The Last Testament:
