 Islam at opensource encyclopedia
The cornerstone of Islamic faith is a strict belief in monotheism.
Islamic teaching holds that life is given by Allah and should not be taken lightly, but it allows severe punishment, up to and including capital punishment, for certain kinds of crime; these include, in strict interpretations, all extramarital sexual relations (zina') by both men and women—though only married adulterers may be punished with death.
According to Islamic tradition, Muhammad was illiterate; the revelations to Muhammad were later gathered by his companions and followers in book form.

 Islamism - encyclopedia article about Islamism.
This exhortation was followed by the Egyptian Islamic Jihad organisation, responsible for the assassination of Anwar Sadat, but with a twist: Egyptian Islamic Jihad focused its efforts on "apostate" leaders of Islamic states, those who were secular and introduced Western ideas and practice to Islamic societies.
Their views were outlined in a pamphlet written by Muhammad Abd al-Salaam Farag, which said: "…there is no doubt that the first battlefield for jihad is the extermination of these infidel leaders and to replace them by a complete Islamic Order…"
With that perspective, Muslims view the Qur'an as corrective of Jewish and Christian scriptures.

 Islam Online - Fatwa

 USC-MSA Compendium of Muslim Texts
Marriage in Islam has aspects of both 'ibadah (worship) of Allah and mu'amalah (transactions between human beings).
The special permission for men and women to see each other with a view to matrimony does not contravene the code of conduct for believing men and women to lower their gaze and be modest which is laid down in the Holy Qur'an.
Imam Abu Hanifa, Imam Shafi'i, and Imam Malik, all hold the view that it is a sin to put a proposal of marriage against the proposal of another Muslim brother.

 Family Planning, Contraception and Abortion in Islam page 3
Pervading this argument is the view that sexual morality is dictated to from external constraints.
I would like to reiterate that while the views of the learned scholars may be illuminating and helpful (or not !), in Islam the individual believer retains the right to make her own decisions on the basis of being a moral agent (khalifah).
It is noteworthy that the majority of contemporary Islamic leaders who are well educated in the Islamic legacy and are aware of social needs, with few exceptions, state the religious permissibility of contraception.

 Michael L. Fitzgerald, M.Afr. - Some Notes on the Islamic View of Women
With regard to impediments to marriage mention could be made of the impediment of mixed religion.
In concluding this short paper on Islamic views of women it is necessary to emphasise again the fragmentary nature of this study.
Because of this impurity women, in some parts of the Islamic world, have been totally excluded from the mosque and thus from an important segment of the Islamic way of life.

 The islamic fundamentalist view of life as a perennial battle
Qutb views jihad as both defensive and offensive, stating that jahiliyya is always evil in whatever form it manifests itself and jihad by force (bil saif) must be used to annihilate evil jahili regimes, replacing them by Islamic systems.
Against the views held by traditionalists of Jews and Christians as protected "dhimmis" and "people of the Book," fundamentalists link contemporary Western supremacy to the historic opposition of Jews and Christians to Muhammad in the 7th century, and also to texts in Quran and Hadith with anti-Christian and anti-Jewish implications.
For Islamic fundamentalists separation usually means emulating the Prophet's hijra from Mecca to Medina interpreted as a temporary separation from the jahili environment in order to consolidate the community's strength and eventually return in power to destroy the evil system and establish God's rule.

The Islamic view is that while marriage between cousins is permissible, it is certainly preferable to choose a marriage partner from outside one's family.
That testifies to the wisdom of the Islamic approach.
That is certainly unacceptable from the Islamic point of view.

 Islam Online - Fatwa
In an Islamic marriage, the woman is not a plaything in the hand of the man, but she is a spiritual and a moral being who is entrusted to him on the sacred pledge to which Allah is made a witness.
Ash-shighar marriage means that two men (for example, two brothers) marry two women (for example, two sisters) from the other family under the condition that there is no mahr (dower paid to the woman).
Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that Allah's Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) “has forbidden ash-shighar, which means that one man says to another: Marry me your daughter and I will marry you my daughter; or marry me your sister and I will marry you my sister." (Reported by Muslim).

 Q689
It simply means that when she wants to get married, she has to have her marriage done properly, which means, from the Islamic point of view, that the marriage contract must be attended by her guardian.
Imam Abu Hanifah is of the view that it is valid.
Similarly, an argument may be made that the second verse addresses the Muslim community as a whole and makes it obligatory on the Muslim community not to allow a marriage between a Muslim woman and a polytheist.

 Q371
It is sufficient that the mother declares her approval of the marriage for it to take place.
She made it clear that she was willing to accept the Prophet's proposal because it was sufficient for her as a recommendation of the bridegroom that the Prophet himself made the offer.
Seek, then, the woman of faith if you want to be prosperous." On the other hand, the Prophet tells parents and guardians of girls of marriageable age to accept the proposal of a person whose honesty and faith is of good standards.

 Dowry - Wikpedia
Mehr means dowry in Arabic, and is an important part of an Islamic marriage.
In societies where payment of dowry is common, unmarried women are seen to attract stigma and tarnish the household's reputation, so it is in the bride's family's interest to marry off their daughter as soon as she is eligible.
The tradition of giving dowries is perhaps most well-known in the country of India, where it is still very common, especially in rural areas, despite being prohibited by law as of 1961.

 Islamset - Islamic View on Cloning: Human Cloning: Introduction, Defining Cloning, Discussion
The risks include the infringement on the individuality and identity of the person, undermining the stability of the social order, and the destruction of the bases of blood relationships and established age-old family ties, recognised by the Islamic Shari'ah and all other religions as the foundation of the family and of social order.
Based on these unanimously agreed considerations, some participants were of the view that human cloning was not permissible in any w.ay, shape or form.
Ordinary human cloning, in which the nucleus of a living somatic cell from an individual is placed into the cytoplasm ofan egg devoid of its nucleus, is not to be permitted.
