The Qur'anic Attitude towards those who do not believe its message is crass, hateful and bigoted to say the least..
The Qur'an has a wide range of imagery and insults for those who refuse to believe in Islam. They are likened to cattle (camels, cows, sheep), a goat-herd, dogs, asses, etc. (cf. Surah 25:44, 2:171, 7:175-177, 62:5), but in some passages it is much worse than that:
According to the Koran, a non-Muslim is less than nothing: "To Allah, there are no animals viler than those who DO NOT BELIEVE and remain unbelievers" (Sura 8:55). That is why it is necessary to Islamize them by force and by humiliation. And those who resist Islam and its founder must be chastised, according to the Koran: "Here is the fate of those who fight Allah and his messenger: you will put them to death or you will make them suffer the torture of the cross; you will cut their hands and their feet alternately. They will be driven from the country" (Sura 5:33).
Mind you, Q8/55 vilifies and attacks non muslims just for NOT BELIEVING in islam or its inventor, muhammad! Not because these people were literally fighting muslims or islam. There are numerous other verses like this one, too!
And, since the Muslims are realists, they take into account circumstances and make, accordingly, temporary peace or war: "Do not display cowardice, and DO NOT CALL THE INFIDELS TO PEACE WHEN YOU ARE SUPERIOR TO THEM." (Sura 47:35).
In a word, as the Koran is the word of Allah for all Muslims, it holds for all times and all peoples until the end of the world. It must be applied according to the indications that Allah himself gives to his believers. This logically explains what is today happening in the Sudan, in Algeria, and in numerous Islamic countries. To idealize Islam is the greatest wrong that one can do to the Muslims themselves.
Many muslims, bahais and their derivatives hide behind exaggerated "hate speech" victimhood to avoid the disclosure to the rabid hate quran expressed against non muslims, Christians abd Jews. This is so shameful and hypocritical.
