All the people who don't believe what you do are infidels (unbelievers) from your perspective. To Christians, Muslims are the infidels. ________________________________________________________ Christians and Jews call Muslims infidels. However, Muslims call Christians and Jews as "people of the book" as they are holders of the holy books Torah and the Bible that Muslims believe that these holy books are revelations of God.
Christians and Muslims
Infidels Correction: Muslims called Christians Infidels. Christians called Muslims Saracens.
Quran does not say to kill the infidels. Refer to related link below for more information.
Heaven
He taught to only honor one God, Allah, and basically to respect all life, even infidels. In fact, most Muslims believe that Jesus is a major Prophet of Allah. Later in his life though, Mohammad's tribe was attacked, and his teachings started to become very violent. This is where the extremists find their justification for killing infidels.
Neither Prophet Muhammad nor Muslims killed any infidel except when Muslims got attacked by them, then rules of war apply. However, no mention in history that Muslims (or prophet Muhammad) killed a civilian, a woman, a child, or an old man. Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) forgiving nature and tolerance was very clear when he got control of the infidels of Makkah (Mecca) where he released them all at no condition although they plotted to assassinate him and they forced him to immigrate from Makkah (his birth place).
I think He doesn't.
There is no contradiction for mainly two reasons:When saying to kill the infidels, it is said within the full Quran text that is talking about the infidels who are attacking Muslims and initiating wars against them. Then Quran licensed Muslims in this case to be strong in defending themselves against them even if they are obliged to kill them.Quran is God revelation to prophet Muhammad (PBUH) that remained; and will remain per God will; without single letter change until the resurrection day. God challenges; in Quran; one can find any contradiction in its stories, teachings or rules.
Muslims consider anyone who does not believe in their way an "infidel". Infidel means unbeliever. The term was also used by Christians in the Crusades to refer to Muslims.
The Koran and the hadiths both tell Muslims, Jews have descended from monkeys and pigs and should be killed, as for Christians Allah once sanctified them as the people of the book, but later calls them infidels which to live in a muslin dominated country only if they pay zaket, a tax, otherwise death.
ever since 9/11 people started hating Muslims. It isn't right because not all Muslims are bad only terrorists are the bad people. I am a Muslim and am i a criminal? no. i don't get why everybod hates Muslims like they are devils. In Islam people arent taught to kill people. Islam means peace. so why would they kill?
