		<description>THOU SHALL NOT KILL, PERIOD. 

All followers of the three (3) great Abrahamic religions, Judaism, Christianity 
and Islam believe in the Ten (10) Commandments. In our humble opinion, 
if anyone killed another innocent human being or himself, he is neither a Jew,
nor a Christian, nor a Muslim, because he disobeyed one of the most important 
Commandments of Almighty God (Allah): Thou Shall Not Kill (MURDER)!
 ……..

Given below are some of the verses from the Holy Qur’an and Holy Bible
in support  thereof, referring to the number of Surah (Chapter) first followed 
by the number of Ayah (Verse), later (from an English translation of the
Holy Qur’an by Mr. Muhammad Marmaduke Pickthall).

Yet ye (Children of Israel) it is who slay each other and drive out a
 party of your people from their homes, supporting one another against
 them by sin and transgression, and if they came to you as captives ye
 would ransom them, whereas their expulsion was itself unlawful for you.
 Believe ye in part of the Scripture and disbelieve ye in part thereof?
 (2:85)

Lo! those who disbelieve the revelations of Allah (God Almighty), 
and  slay the Prophets wrongfully, and slay those of mankind who 
enjoin  equity: announce them a painful doom. (3:21)

O ye who believe! eat not up your property among yourselves in  
vanities: but let there be amongst you traffic and trade by mutual 
good-will: nor kill (or destroy) yourselves (commit suicide): for verily 
Allah hath been to you Most Merciful. (4:29)

Never should a believer kill a believer; but (if it so happens) by mistake 
(compensation is due): if one (so) kills a believer, it is ordained
 that he should free a believing slave and pay compensation to the
deceased&#039;s family, unless they remit it freely. If the deceased belonged 
to a people at war with you and he was a believer, the freeing of a
 believing slave (is enough). If he belonged to a people with whom ye have 
a treaty of mutual alliance, compensation should be paid to his family
 and a believing slave be freed. For those who find this beyond their
 means (is prescribed) a fast for two months running: by way of repentance
 to Allah: for Allah hath all knowledge and all wisdom. (4:92)

If a man kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell to abide 
therein (for ever): and the wrath and the curse of Allah are upon him
and a dreadful penalty is prepared for him. (4:93)

For that cause We decreed for the Children of Israel that whosoever
 killeth a human being for other than manslaughter or corruption in the
 earth, it shall be as if be had killed all mankind, and whoso saveth the 
life of one, it shall be as if he had saved the life of all mankind. Our 
messengers came unto them of old with clear proofs (of Allah&#039;s 
sovereignty), but afterwards lo!  many of them became prodigals in 
the earth. (5:32)

They are losers who besottedly have slain their children without
 knowledge, and have forbidden that which Allah bestowed upon them, 
inventing a lie against Allah. They indeed have gone astray and are not 
guided.  (6:140)

Say: &quot;Come I will rehearse what Allah hath (really) prohibited you from&quot;: 
join not anything as equal with Him; be good to your parents: kill not your 
children on a plea of want; We provide sustenance for you and for them; 
come not nigh to shameful deeds whether open or secret; take not life, 
which Allah hath made sacred except by way of justice and law: thus doth 
He command you that ye may learn wisdom. (6:151)

O Prophet! when believing women come to thee to take the oath of                 
 fealty to thee that they will not associate in worship any other thing
 whatever with Allah that they will not steal, that they will not commit
adultery (or fornication), that they will not kill their children, that they 
will not utter slander intentionally forging falsehood, and that they
will not disobey thee in any just matter then do thou receive their
fealty and pray to Allah for the forgiveness (of their sins): for Allah
is Oft-Forgiving Most Merciful. (60:12)

Kill not your children for fear of want: We shall provide sustenance
 for them as well as for you: verily the killing of them is a great sin.
 (17:31)

And slay not the life which Allah hath forbidden save with right. 
Whoso is slain wrongfully, We have given power unto his heir, but let 
him not commit excess in slaying. Lo! he will be helped. (17:33)

And those who cry not unto any other god along with Allah, nor take 
the life which Allah hath forbidden save in (course of) justice, nor
commit adultery and whoso doeth this shall pay the penalty; (25:68)

THOU SHALL NOT MURDER (Holy Bible).

Numbers 35:20-22 (in Context) Numbers 35 (Whole Chapter) 
8.        Numbers 35:25

The assembly must protect the one accused of murder from the avenger of blood and send him back to the city of refuge to which he fled. He must stay there until the death of the high priest, who was anointed with the holy oil.

Numbers 35:24-26 (in Context) Numbers 35 (Whole Chapter) 
9.        Numbers 35:27

and the avenger of blood finds him outside the city, the avenger of blood may kill the accused without being guilty of murder.

Numbers 35:26-28 (in Context) Numbers 35 (Whole Chapter) 
10.     Numbers 35:30

&quot; &#039;Anyone who kills a person is to be put to death as a murderer only on the testimony of witnesses. But no one is to be put to death on the testimony of only one witness.
