dhimmi: Letter to Julanda brothers fact or fiction?
Reader comment on item: [The Islamist-Leftist] Allied Menace
in response to reader comment: Islam and its origin
Submitted by Plato (India), Jul 12, 2008 at 01:21
Hello dhimmi no more,
You wrote:
>>The only sources we have about the origin of Islam from Muslims are literary sources written by non-Arabs in distant Mesopotamia in the 3rd century of islam. There are no coins, papyri, epigraphy or anyhting that is extant and can tell us about this religion. Nothing. Not a thing.<<
There is supposed to be a letter written by Muhammad to the Juland brothers kept in a fort in Sohar. Have you heard of it? How genuine do you think it is? http://www.answering-islam.org/Muhammad/oman.htm
Warm regards
Plato
