For Sohail and asbab al-nuzul v. al-nasikh wa al-mansukh

My dear Sohail, your reply betrays your total confusion about the genre of Asbab al-nuzul which I'm not even intereted in, in our case here and the doctrine of al-nasikh wa al-mansukh

Let me repeat it one more time: any aya revealed in surat al-tauba will abrogate another previous aya in another chapter of the Qur'an and in this case:

1. Ayat al-sayf will aborgate the :la ikrah fi al-deen (oh you do not know Arabic, but again Islam is the religion of the Arabs only).

2. Q9:29 where _unconditional_ war is declared against ahk al-kitab whatever this might be.

You are either not very focused , or you think that we infidels do not know what we are talking about.

As for Mahmud of ghazni who brutalized your ancestors, we are told that some of his officers were horrified with the atrocities committed against the people of India and when he was told about it his reply was: "But it says in the book of Allah to slay the polytheists (Q9:4 or Ayat al-sayf or the sword verse and why says that islam was not spread by violence) therefore kill the polytheists."

So you see my dear Sohail, Mahmud of ghazni was following your Allah's commands.

As for you, why not get a job in Pakistan and be among other Muslims? Let me guess, Pakiland is a basket case.
