Mr. Ausal,
You don't need to regret about my ignorance at all. What I said was on the basis of Holy Koran, sahi hadiths, Al Siraat a rasul and islamic history recorded by all famous Muslim historians and not on the basis of some sanitized history written by some western infidel with utter ignorance and having no support from Koran and hadiths. In India alone, Muslim invaders slaughtered 2 millions Hindu Kaffirs and destroyed hundreds of thousands of Hindu temples. You want history I can give you. In Arab peninsula Prophet Muhammad fought at least 78 battles and Prophet himself participated in about 27 battles. Tens of thousands of Pagans were slaughtered and rest were converted quickly only to save their lives. You can deny everything but these western historians you have mentioned never can support their assertion by hadiths and Koran at all. This was their wishful beautifications of Islamic history without any support from Hadiths or Koran.
Below is the article written on the basis of Holy Koran, Sahi hadiths and all famous Muslim historians who recorded actual drama of Islamic jihad that were staged in Arab peninsula alone. Please read the article:
Islamic battles (Terrors) to propagate Islam.
http://www.islam-watch.org/AbulKasem/RootsTerrorism/RootsTerrorism0.htm
This long write-up will open your closed eyes only to tell you how exactly Islam was established in the 7th century period by our peaceful Prophet and his peaceful disciples. Please read and deny these if you can. If you deny this then you will deny Koran and hadiths too!

Mr. Ausal, you can not convince any sane person that the above references simply lied about islamic propagations in 7th century time. Please read the write-ups and learn yourself about islamic history. You don't need to learn from some western infidels about islamic peaceful face. You can learn about islamic jihad right from Koran and hadiths.
