No offence, but many Muslims give a really bad image of Islam for non-muslims. Islam is a beautiful religion which does not need to be beautified or decorated for others to love. But whether we like it or not, Muslims are the reflection of Islam, and most people will judge Islam by the actions of Muslims before going to the Quran and learning the real Islam. So before you tell people not to blame Islam for your wrongs, you might as well tell them the things you have done have nothing to do with Islam.
