Why Did They Become Muslims

contains a comparison of the Bible and the Qur’ân al-kerîm. Please
review that section!
The Holy Bible, which Christians believe in as a heavenly book
revealed by Allâhu ta’âlâ, contains a high number of passages
commanding cruelty and savagery. We will quote an insignificant
number of them only as a lesson to the so-called innocent and
compassionate Christians who call Muslims barbarians and Islam a
religion of barbars.
The twenty-third and twenty-fourth verses of the twenty-third
chapter of Exodus read as follows: “For mine angel shall go before
thee, and bring thee in unto the Am’or-ites, and the Hittites, and the
Per’iz-zites, and the Canaanites, ...: and I will cut them off.” “... but
thou shalt utterly overthrow them, and quite break down their
images.” (Ex: 23-23, 24)
In the beginning of the thirty-first chapter of Numbers “the
LORD” commands Moses to “Avenge the children of Israel of the
Mid’i-an-ites: ...” (Num: 31-2) And the seventh and later verses read as
follows: “And they warred against the Mid’i-an-ites, as the LORD
commanded Moses; and they slew all the males.” (ibid: 7) “And the
children of Israel took all the women of Mid’i-an captives, and their
little ones, and took the spoil of all their cattle, and all their flocks, and
all their goods.” “And they burnt all their cities wherein they dwelt,
and all their goodly castles, with fire.” (ibid: 9, 10) It is written in the
later verses that Mûsâ ‘alaihis-salâm’ was angry with his officers
because they had left the women alive, and that he commanded the
slaughter of the male children of all the women. (ibid: 14, 15, 16, 17) A
later verse, on the other hand, (verse 35) states that the number of girls
unkilled was thirty-two thousand. Just imagine the number of the
people slaughtered!
The initial verses of the seventh chapter of Deuteronomy read as
follows: “When the LORD thy God shall bring thee into the land
whither thou goest to possess it, and hath cast out many nations before
thee, the Hittites, and the Gir’ga-shites, ... and the Am’or-ites, and the
Canaanites, and the Per’iz-zites, seven nations greater and mightier
than thou;” “And when the LORD thy God shall deliver them before
thee; thou shalt smite them, and utterly destroy them; thou shalt make
no covenant with them, nor shew mercy unto them:” (Deut: 7-1, 2)
The twenty-seventh verse of the thirty-second chapter of Exodus
reads as follows: “And he said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God
of Israel, Put every man his sword by his side, and go in and out from
gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother,
and every man his companion, and every man his neighbour.” (Ex:
32-27)
