Nozzi: I have not encouraged you to fight. I have shown it is the Koran which encourages Muslims to slaughter pagans

Nozzi, you write:

>>Now I ask you a few simple questions: Should muslims preach to non-muslims? Should muslims fight with non-muslims? Muslims should preach to non-Muslims only if they are willing to be preached to by them.

Muslims should not fight with non-Muslims except in self-defence. So too for non-Muslims.

>> As you have told me earlier to slaughter non-muslims as and when we see them, how could we preach to them?<<

I have told you nothing of the sort. Show me where. I have shown you that Allah and His prophet want you to slaughter the non-Muslims (9:28, 9:111 and 8:67).

Regards

Plato
