I could hardly believe my eyes when i read Mr. Aziz's comments. Islam is not a "missionizing" religion?? Shariah law is not mandatory for all residents to obey in Muslim countries?? First, it is incumbent on every Muslim in Shariah-governed countries to offer Islam to the Kuffar, and if they refuse, they are to be forced to pay the Jizya tax and submit as Dhimmis, or to fight and be killed or driven out. Second, all Dhimmi Kuffars in Muslim-dominated lands must live as second-class citizens; they are not allowed to build new houses of worship or to repair old ones, they must not proselyte, and they must not carry religious books or symbols in public. For a perfect example of the foregoing, observe Saudi Arabia. In that country, Jews, considered to be "apes and pigs", are not even allowed.
