[quote=Muslima][quote=Anonymous]I am a middle eastern Christian.  On the one hand I share a culture with middle eastern Muslims.  With the best of the Muslims, we share our faiths - they come to Christmas and Easter liturgies and we share in their Eids.  On the other hand, we know what it is like to be treated as najis (unclean).

Right now, all I can think of are my brothers and sisters of faith who have fled Mosul.

My consolation is that our God so loved the world that He took on human guise and suffered as my brothers and sisters from Mosul are suffering - persecution and death.[/quote]

And I am standing with you against the persecution of people in Mosul. They might be your brothers in faith but they are my brothers in humanity.  Our Prophet Mohamed Saw would be ashamed of them if He was here today. This is not Islam, so I stand with you and I will march with you agains the injustice dine to your people. This is the promise and treaty that our beloved prophet had 1400 years ago and he would be appalled had he witnessed this today . One proof of that is the Charter of Privileges made to the Christians of Najran by the prophet  Mohamed saw :

"This is a message from [Prophet] Muhammad ibn Abdullah, as a covenant to those who adopt Christianity, near and far, we are with them.

Verily I, the servants, the helpers, and my followers defend them, because Christians are my citizens; and by Allah! I hold out against anything that displeases them.

No compulsion [in religion] is to be on them.

Neither are their judges to be removed from their jobs nor their monks from their monasteries.

No one is to destroy a house of their religion, to damage it, or to carry anything from it to the Muslims' houses.

Should anyone take any of these, he would spoil God's covenant and disobey His Prophet. Verily, they are my allies and have my secure charter against all that they hate.

No one is to force them to travel or to oblige them to fight.

The Muslims are to fight for them.

If a female Christian is married to a Muslim, it is not to take place without her approval. She is not to be prevented from visiting her church to pray.

Their Churches are to be respected. They are neither to be prevented from repairing them nor the sacredness of their covenants.

No one of the nation (of Muslims) is to disobey this covenant till the Last Day (end of the world)."[/quote]
The original letter can be seen to this day in the Topkapi Museum in Instanbul)
