Reader comment on item: Is Saudi Arabia Opening Up?
in response to reader comment: Islam is the religion of the Hijazi Arabs only and this is what the Qur'an says part Nth

Submitted by Liam Devlin (Saudi Arabia), Dec 7, 2011 at 03:54

Mate, are you at all familiar with the phrase from Quran which is to be conveyed to people who argue too much about Islam and its vices?

it goes something like, "to you is your religion and to me is mine".

i assure you it is meant for your type.

I am not an expert in arabic, but i have learned long back that a perfect translation from arabic to other languages is near impossible. so, if you think i have i have translated it wrong, don't correct me.

Understand that the duty of a Muslim towards a kafir is to inform him/her about Islam and its tenets, and not to convince or convert them.

i hope you and the dude who is arguing with you gets the point.
