Religion of Warlords

Muhammad has been often criticized outside of the Islamic world for his treatment of the Jewish tribes of Medina.  An example is the mass killing of the men of the Banu Qurayza, a Jewish tribe of Medina. The tribe was accused of having engaged in treasonous agreements with the enemies besieging Medina in the Battle of the Trench in 627. [b]Ibn Ishaq writes that Muhammad approved the beheading of some 600-900 individuals [/b]who surrendered unconditionally after a siege that lasted several weeks. (Also see Bukhari 5:59:362) (Yusuf Ali notes that the Qur'an discusses this battle in verses [Quran 33:10]). They were buried in a mass grave in the Medina market place, and the women and children were sold into slavery.

"The massacre of Ayyadieh occurred on 20 August 1191. It was perpetrated by Richard Coeur de Lion, better known as Richard the Lion Heart, during the Crusades to recover the holy land from the saracens under the command of Saladin."

"Over 3,000 men, women and children, were beaten to death, axed or killed with swords and lances."

You guys talk about 627 as if it were yesterday. But, someone mentions the Crusades -- the third of which was over 500 years later -- it's "ancient history".

Muhammad is Islam's prophet, delivering what in their belief is the final and perfected message of God. That is why his actions still have relevance.[/quote]
