Response to Sardar

Submitted by John M. (United States), Feb 17, 2006 at 01:28

Dear Mr Sardar: How can muslims not respect biblical prophets since Mohammed claimed to be one of them and sent by the same God? However they insult all other Gods and call them fake. Quran calls for the death of their adherents (9.5). Only concession is to people of the book who can live as second class dhimmies after giving protection money,called Jizya.
However quran blasphemes all religions:

Gods of all other religions shall be the fuel of Hell (21:98-100)
All Gods except Allah are created , dead and false, they all lead to hell ( 16:20-21,25:17-19, 29:41-42,37:22-25)
Jesus was a muslim and a slave/servant of Allah, and not his son (3:52, 4:171-172,4:172, 5:115-117, 5:111-112)
Crucification of Jesus is a lie (4:157)
Doctrine of trinity is infidelity and disbelief, a painful doom awaits for those disbelievers who believe in trinity(5:73)
Christians corrupted the true message (5:14,15)
People of the book (jews and Christians) are evil doers, some of whom were converted into apes and swines for their disbelief (5:59-60)
Jews say Ezra is son of God and Christians say Jesus is son of God, they are liars and perverts, May Allah destroy them (9:30)

Quran also calls all non muslims evil (2:99), diseased (2.10), cursed (2:88), losers(5:53), liars (16:39), worst beasts (8:55) , lowest creatures (58.20), deaf dumb and blind (2.171), decendants of apes and swines (5.60) and perverts (9:30), and who are considered dirty (9:28) like urine, feces, pigs and dogs touching of whom defiles a muslim and requires ablution.
