"THEY believe man's only rightful freedom is to worship Allah and to behave as prescribed in the Koran."

There's a bit of a contradiction there because the Qur'an gives people the freedom to worship other Gods, as has nearly ever Muslim-ruled state.

That's a given or allowed freedom under Islamic law (with attached conditions and restrictions), but it's not considered really rightful, in their view. They believe that all infidels, including Jews and Christians, have turned away from Allah and are therefore doing wrong, and will pay a supreme penalty for their willful departure from Allah's will.

It is also questionable whether the restricted "freedom" you speak of applies to those such as Hindus who are not "people of the Book."
