To Plato: But forced submission is what Allah and his Rasool want

"But forced submission is what Allah and his Rasool want".

Dear Plato, There is no compulsion in the religion; rectitude has become clear from perversion; so whoso disbelieves in idols and believes in God, has laid hold of the most firm handle, which cannot break; and God is Hearing, Knowing.(Quran 2.256)

Syed Rafey Husain
