Muhammad protected Jews

What about the Constitution of Medina?

Only exists within Islamic sources.
What is historical is the complete disappearance of the Jewish tribes around Medina by 627. Mohammed arrived in Medina in 622.
The Banu Qaynuqa and Banu Nadir were both expelled soon after Mohammeds arrival.

That left the Banu Qurayza as the only Jews left.

When an Arab attack force lead by Meccan tribes besieged Medina they had the help of many other Arab tribes and the two Jewish tribes who were expelled.
What supposedly happened was that the Banu Qurayza betrayed Mohammed and after the siege failed their time was over.
They then surrendered to Mohammed.

Every single man was executed, 600-900 men.
All women and girls were taken as slaves.

Not even Islamic sources are sure whether any Jews betrayed Mohammed or not.


The wikipedia page on The Jewish Tribes of Arabia also seems to be missing reference to Mohammed's involvement in the killing of Jews?

So they all just vanished in a couple of years.
Probably vaporised.

In my experience, when a poster resorts to a litany of personal attacks.........Can you continue without resorting to any personal attacks?

I take it, you have strong evidence to back up your outrageous claim there?

As for it being repetitive, it just is.

No wonder why, how's those scholars working out for you? You do know what the word "Qur'an" means right? What was the origin of "book" again? (something about a madman and a recitation)

As for it being totalitarian, again this is self-evident if you've read the book.

Again, you're going to bring hard evidence to that claim because your evidence has been nil so far. All you have is opinions and silly, dried out insinuations.

Islam is not simply a religion, it is a way of life.

So is Buddhism, I'm glad you've opened your eyes :)

Constitution of Medina, document from early Islamic history based upon two agreements concluded between the clans of Medina and the Prophet Muhammad soon after the Hijrah (Latin: Hegira), or emigration, to Medina in AD 622. The agreements established the muhājirūn, i.e., the early Muslims who followed Muhammad, on a par with the eight clans of Medina (called the anṣār, or “helpers”); collectively, the nine tribes formed the first Muslim community (ummah). The agreements also regulated the relations of the Muslims with the Jews of Medina.

On this topic at least, it seems clear we can't have any sort of fruitful exchange, see ya around RF.

More dodging, classy. Full intellectual prowess on display.
Still waiting on that long list of things, when you're ready to be mature about this.

When you stop sea-lioning you might have some interesting discussions on this forum. But as long as that's your tactic, you probably won't.
