Why might Jews Muslims and Christians cause a problem in the same country?
Jews and Christians get along well as seen in the USA and Israel today. However, the teachings of Islam via the Saudi textbooks and some of the Koran and Hadith verses make it quite plain that both Jews and Christians are hated by many in Islam. The final vision for most Muslims is a world with only Muslims: Here is just one writing illustrating the intolerance of Mohammed and the Muslim movement toward the Jews and the Christians: Hadith, Sahih Muslim, Book 019, Number 4366, narrated by 'Umar b. al-Khattib: He heard the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) say, "I will expel the Jews and Christians from the Arabian Peninsula and will not leave any but Muslim."

How are Muslims perceived by Jews and Christians?
Answer 1They are perceived by a very small minority of Jews and Christians as unbelievers and as their enemies although the vast majority of educated Jews and Christians will simply view them as fellow humans worshipping the same God according to their own beliefs and traditions. Muslims view Jews and Christians as " people of the book" as Muslims believe in their holy books; The Bible and the Torah; and their prophets; Jesus and Moses. Refer to questions below.Answer 2The Jewish perception of Muslims depends on whether you are asking from a religious perspective or a political perspective. Religiously, Jews accept that Islam is a valid religion for non-Jewish people and the famous Rabbi Moses Maimonides (Rambam) said over 900 years ago that Islam was part of the Divine Plan to make Knowledge of God a worldwide phenomenon. Jews support Muslims' right to pray and see their rituals and ceremonies as valid and proper, just not for Jews (who are obligated to follow Jewish Law).Politically, Jews and Muslims have a number of unresolved issues. During Mohammed's life and the Caliphate period, Jews saw Muslims as preferable overlords than the Christians since Muslims permitted Jewish practice whereas Christians often did not. However, this tolerance is viewed by Muslims as being peaceful and harmonious, whereas Jews see it as a second-class citizenship. Additionally, Muslims circulated numerous Anti-Semitic hadiths and, in the modern period, embraced many Anti-Semitic books and pamphlets from Europe. Jews are immensely bothered and angered by the positive reception that many Muslims gave such derisive nonsense. Most recently, the united Islamic opposition to the State of Israel and its internationally confirmed Right to Exist infuriates Jews because Muslim politicians continually try to deny both the political validity of Israel as well as the religious connection that Jews have to the land. The Jewish perception is that these Muslim leaders and many Muslims in Muslim-majority countries are unwilling to even consider the Israeli or Jewish points of view while demanding that their political will be enacted.
Can Muslims make friends with Christians?
Yes, of course. They are already friends except when Muslims get attacked by Christians then Muslims have to defend themselves.

It's not the Christians doing the attacking, but groups like ISIS.

How can you make a free pilgrimage to Jerusalem?
