Religion Of Peace And Children

Thank you to The Religion Of Peace, found in my links section, for this picture:
After this Muslim Morrocan six-year old girl stumbled and accidentally stepped on her teacher's prayer rug while he was praying, he calmly finished his prayers and proceeded to teach her a lesson...
Namely, that a ratty piece of sheep's wool is more valuable than she is as a human being.
"Religion of Peace" indeed.
Now let me counter with the Christian view of the value of children:
Luke 17:2
"It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than he should offend one of these little ones."

And here's a question for the Islam scholars out there. Is Allah a purely retributive being or is he supposed to be merciful and loving? I am completely confused about the character of this god.
