Never commented on the youtube video. Very informative and I think it just further addresses the point that extremism is caused by taking the Qur'an's words and twisting them.

That's the whole point I think you're missing, anyone can twist religion to justify violence, yet...Shari'ah Law demands violence, it's in accordance with the Qur'an - no twisting whatsoever. Shari'ah Law is on the side of extremism, don't take my word for it though, examine Shari'ah Law for yourself - The principle source of Shari'ah is the Qur'an itself. It is the Islamic source material for the muslims Law, confirmed by any number of ulema.

This book pretty much covers Shar'iah, it is the book I quoted from in my previous posts - The Reliance of the Traveller: A Classic Manual of Islamic Law - get one here:

For the muslim, "
it is imperative for every muslim to mold his or her life according to the teachings of the Qur'an. Our Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "None of you can become a true believer until his desires become subordinate to what I have brought." and the true believers consider "
the pathetic and disastrous condition of the Muslim Ummah throughout the world is due to the abandoning of the Qur'an by the Muslims. The attitude of indifference that we constantly show towards the last of the Allah's Revelations, along with our hypocritical lip-service, is tantamount to ridiculing it. Instead, we must clearly understand our responsibilities towards the Qur'an and try our very best in fulfilling them."

I'm not sure if you've read Qutb, but if you want to talk about a little bit of crazyness, here ya go.

The
last of the Allah's Revelations (Medina) are what extremists are abiding by - Sayyid Qutb barely scratches the surface, if you really interested in reading the craziness, check out the writings of: Ibn Ishaq, Ibn Sa’d, Wakidi, and Ibn Taymiyyah. Qutb's ideas came from the early ulema:
