As a Muslim, Jewish-Muslim solidarity is essential

Muslims aren’t meant to argue with followers of earlier revelation in an unkind way. I’m so so so tired of seeing Muslims and Jewish people argue with each other as a Muslim myself. The Prophet (peace be upon him) felt no hatred towards Jewish people. Some Muslims take verses referring to Prophet Muhammad’s PBUH struggle with three rebellious Jewish tribes to justify prejudice, which I despise. By taking these verses out of context the message of the Qur’an is very distorted and does NOT reflect the attitude of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) who felt no hostility towards Judaism.

“Do not argue with the followers of earlier revelation otherwise than in a most kindly manner—unless it be such of them as are bent on evil-doing—and say: “We believe in that which has been bestowed from on high upon us, as well as that which has been bestowed upon you;for our God and your God is one and the same, and it is unto Him that we [all] surrender ourselves” -Quran 29:46

Jewish-Muslim solidarity is essential. Please do not act like we should be divided! I despise antisemitism and islamophobia. I love my Jewish brothers and sisters and my Muslim brothers and sisters. We’re stronger united than divided
