There are many Islamophobic sites that give half verses or twisted translations to the Quran in order to spread lies and false information.
It seems that there are certain Islamophiles who will use half truths and professed misunderstanding to protect "the true faith."
Please, let us try to make honesty the coin of the realm on the board. Let's not obfuscate.
The Koran divides the world into believers and non-believers.
The duty of the believer is to strive against the non-believer. On numerous occasions the strife is defined as war. It therefore allows death and beheadings for all "kufr" at all times.
"...the foundation of the Islamic faith, the Koran. The Koran’s core theme is about the duty of all Muslims to fight non-Muslims; an Islamic Mein Kampf, in which fight means war, jihad. The Koran is above all a book of war – a call to butcher non-Muslims (2:191, 3:141, 4:91, 5:3), to roast them (4:56, 69:30-69:32), and to cause bloodbaths amongst them (47:4)."

The core theme of the Quran is NOT about the duty of muslims to fight non muslims.
Even a short reading of the Quran would convince you of that.
The central theme of the Quran is the return to worship of the "One God".
All thru the Quran it talks about being kind to our neighbor and helping the poor and orphans. Being sincere in your manner of speech and behavior. Comming to the help of the oppressed and kindness to widows. Giving honor to parents and elders. Raising your children correctly to be good citizens in the society. Treating animals fairly and with compassion.
It says that doing right to all people is the same as worshiping God. And you will be rewarded for all of your good deeds, and punished for the bad.
This is the Quran in the whole.
But all most people see are the cherry picked verses by Islamophobes, that were given during a time of war. And are told this is the Quran.
