THE PEOPLE OF THE BOOK HAVE A DUTY TO ACCEPT OUR PROPHET (SAAS). There is only one true Book, the Qur’an. EVERYONE MUST ABIDE BY THE QUR’AN. If Christians say, “We are followers of Muhammed,” then the Prophet Jesus (as) will be very pleased. The Prophet Jesus (as) will come as a follower of the Qur’an, insha’Allah.

The global secret state wants war between Muslims and the People of the Book. We do not want a bloody war against the People of the Book. We have a duty to speak the gentlest words to the People of the Book. ALLAH WANTS CHRISTIANS TO SAY “LA ILAHA LA ILALLAH”.

Our brothers must have nothing to do with the corruption of bigots and fanatics who want to “slaughter the People of the Book.” It is the way of the dajjal that encourages them in that perverse way of thinking. CHURCHES AND SYNAGOGUES ARE UNDER ALLAH’S PROTECTION. That is in a verse from the Qur’an. OUR MUSLIM BROTHERS MUST MAKE UP FOR THE OPPRESSION OF JEWS AND CHRISTIANS BY TREATING THEM WITH LOVE.

I have a duty to support the innocent, let it be Christians or Jews, I am responsible for the protection of the People of the Book. This is something the Qur’an commands me. It is Allah’s command. Allah does not tell us to kill the People of the Book wherever we find them. They are entrusted to us by Allah.

The behavior recommended to all Muslims in the Qur’an is to treat the People of the Book with love, respect, affection and compassion, to protect and watch over them and to meet their needs in the finest manner. The pronouncement of the Qur’an regarding the People of the Book is crystal clear, and is also clear from the Sunna of our Prophet (saas). The people of the Book are our La Ilaha IllaAllah (there is no god but Allah) brothers.

The People of the Book are responsible from the Qur’an. Some of them say Prophet Jesus (as) is “Allah” (Allah is beyond that). 99 percent of the Christians are thus faithless. What is the point of being adrift in such misery while there is the true religion of Islam emanating light?

Compassion for the People of the Book is a very vital issue. It is the morality of our Prophet (saas), it is a commandment of the Qur’an.

Israelis are the People of the Book. By forging an alliance with the devout people of Israel, we need to strive to annihilate irreligiousness from the face of this World. Living in peace with the Israelis, living brotherly, friendly with them; backing them up and having them back up the Palestinians would be the best move. And that would be made possible with the Unity of Islam, with the system of the Mahdi, with the appearance of the Moschiah.

We should protect and watch over the People of the Book, we should protect and watch over Christians. We should approach them with compassion. We will altogether annihilate the system of the antichrist (dajjal) spiritually. Hand in hand with the Christians and hand in hand with the Jews, insha'Allah. They also say that "Allah is One".

Let us embrace our Christian brothers and sisters fervently with love. Our brothers should protect and watch over them everywhere. In the streets, in the malls, they should love and respect them everywhere. They should thus keep their bonds of neighborhood strong. Allah wants us to treat Christians compassionately. Allah wants us to treat the People of the Book compassionately; so we should treat Jews compassionately as well.

Time will come for the People of the Book to come to believe in the Jesus Messiah altogether, insha’Allah.

In Egypt, a policy of compassion should be adopted towards Israel as well. An attitude that would make Israel uneasy is not compliant with religion. Showing compassion to the People of the Book is the command of the Qur'an.

Within the radical mindset there are some people who give a so-called sanctity to hatred towards Jews. Jews are People of the Book, God would not consent their being persecuted.

We used to live together with Jews, Armenians and Greeks as brothers. They are the People of the Book and are entrusted to us by God. Again with the establishment of the Turkish Islamic Union we will insha’Allah embrace all of them with love.

It’s wrong to call Christians and Jews ‘infidels’. They are the People of the Book, with whom Muslims are allowed to marry and socialize.

God commands Muslims in the Qur’an to approach People of Book with love, respect and compassion.

God commands Muslims in the Qur’an to approach Christians and Jews with love and compassion. Muslims should act accordingly.

Ruthless enmity against Christians and Jews does not befit Muslims. God teaches that they are People of the Book and they should be shown compassion.

The provisions of the Qur'an are valid until the Day of Judgment. Those who allege that the verses about mercy and compassion have been annulled commit a great persecution. Claiming that the verses about love and mercy had been annulled, some bigots ban approaching Christians with compassion. None of the verses the Qur'an had been annulled. God decrees us to approach the People of the Book with compassion and mercy.

Ehl-i Kitap'a gavur denilmez, bu çok çirkin bir söz. Allah Hristiyanlar ve Musevilerin Ehli Kitap olduğunu bildirmiştir.

God commands Muslims to approach the People of the Book with compassion and love, not with hatred.

It is only natural that there are similarities between the People of the Book and Muslims; they are all divine religions. The Mahdi movement can be found in all divine religions.

God explains in the Holy Qur’an that there are sincere believers among Jews and Christians.

God does not tell Muslims to be hostile to Christians and Jews. On the contrary, God advises us to socialize and have good relations with them.

We love all innocent Christians and Jews. According to the Qur’an they are the People of the Book and are under the protection of Muslims.
