hi,
Defending Prophet Muhammad's Indictment of being a Terrorist
Many orientalists have praised the tolerance of Islam, as Zigrid Hunka
did when she mentioned the attitude of Islam towards Christians,
saying "The Arabic deeply rooted tolerance is the motive that made the
conqueror of Egypt Amr Ibn Al-A'as avoid acts of plundering, stealing
and destroying the conquered cities. On the contrary he made sure that
Egyptians practice their inherited culture as was mentioned in the
document of surrender literally. This act shows the real dimension of
such tolerance unknown to Europe".
Tolerance had started as early as the age of Allah's Messenger (PBUH)
and such honorable Islamic behavior continued throughout the ages of
the kings of Islam and their heirs. Gustaf Lobon, in his account on
the results of the Crusaders War, said "Salah El-Din did not want to
act against the Crusaders the same as they did, i.e. with cruelty. So
he did not kill the Christians, instead he just imposed on them a
minimal tax, without taking anything of their properties." (10).
