PROPHET MUHAMMAD ACTIVELY INVOLVED IN PREACHING IN THE PAST

If you refer to the history of Prophet Muhammad, you should have discovered that Prophet Muhammad actively involved in preaching Quran to the Pagans. He did not slaughter the pagans in the first three years of his mission. He preaching to his wife, cousin, friend and associates for their conversions during his first three years. He not only did not kill the pagans, he also did not perform vandalism, riots and/or etc. to the public.

He started to preach to the public after the first three years. The pagans started to persecute him and then he fought back. As you see, he even actively preached after the first three years reaching out to his wife, friends and associates.

His muslim followers began to conquer many places after his death. However, places, like, North America and Spain, in which they went through, there were non-muslims left behind or else these countries would become muslim countries nowadays. As there were non-muslims survived during the war between pagans and muslims, it proves that Allah's message to muslims is to demand non-muslims for their repentance and that he is willing to wait patiently for them to back to Allah.

However, muslim extremists abuse the Holy Quran for violence, havoc, riots &/or etc. I ponder how Allah, Prophet Muhammad and his immediate followers would think of these people that abused Quran for violence.
