Well said, I have had many muslim neighbours and friends and i live in a city that has a large number of muslims, of which i have found to be among the nicest people you could meet.
I too have Muslim friends, but that does not mean I agree with their religious beliefs and I am convinced that Christ is The Way, The Truth and The Life.
The other side of the coin.
"Dhimmitude and religious persecution"
“The human rights situation of Christians in many Muslim countries has been getting steadily worse ever the past half-century. This deterioration has been directly linked to the world-wide Islamic revival and reinstatement of
Sharia law. Most Muslim nations have taken steps, however small, towards re-implementing **Sharia **,and wherever this happens discrimination against non-Muslims increases. As Muslim women from Jakarta to Cape Town have been putting on the veils also Christians and other non-Muslims have been feeling the brunt of worsening human rights condition.”
“Christians have been killed, subjected to forced conversions,enslavement,their churches destroyed, their property looted, the women raped and their fundamental human rights such as freedom of speech denied. In region after region the worldwide
Sharia revival has been bad news for Christians. Battles are being fought over the return of dhimmitude.The Christians of Sudan have fought for more than 20years at the cost of two million lives, because they refused to be made into
dhimmis through the imposition of
Sharia law by the north.” end of quote from the book
The Third Choice. Islam,Dhimmitude and Freedom.by Mark Durie.
“Dhimma—covenant or pact of surrender, by which a conquered non-Muslim community have agreed to live under Islamic rule, and by virtue of which this community is protected from** jihad.**”
"
Dhimmi—a non-Muslim living under Islamic rule, who is considered to be subject to the condition of a dhimma pact.
