The History of Jewish Betrayal

Islam has never been about war, terror, murder, oppression and any other negative aggressive words you can think of. It is in fact about peace. The word Islam itself means 'peace'.

Looking back at the history of Islam since the day the Quran was revealed to our beloved prophet s.a.w, Islam has in fact been oppressed since. 13 years in Makkah trying to propagate Islam has never been easy. People died, tortured, murdered and lost the will to fight during those tumultuous 13 years.

That is why they moved to Madinah. They were offered a good state of living. Muhammad s.a.w. was offered the role of a leader, despite his status in Makkah. He was entrusted to govern a state that is multi-ethnic, multi-religious - a state that is divided not by the color of their skin, but by the differences of their belief and also linkage.

Having moved to Madinah, the Muslims from Makkah (Muhajireen) had to accomodate themselves to an already factional state. It comprises of different tribes of non-believers, Christians and Jews.

Muhammad s.a.w. being a diplomatic individual that he is, conjured up a very diplomatic agreement that would take into consideration the different tribes of Madinah -- to which each tribe could and would agree upon. Remember, he was brought to Madinah not on his own request but by the request of the main tribes in Madinah.

I actually wanted to talk about the jews in Madinah. There were 3 Jewish tribe, bani Qainuqa', bani Nadir and bani Qurayzah (if I am mistaken with the name of any of the 3 tribes then I stand corrected).

The treaty of Madinah had actually incorporated the role, rights and liabilities of each tribes of Madinah including these 3 Jewish tribes.

Islam at that stage was already gaining momentum. It was starting to spread and people were starting to accept the beauty of Islam. But, the Makkan people was still in a state of war with Islam, hence Madinah.

During one of the earlier wars with Makkah, to which Islam was victorious (even though pretty much over powered in terms of size and artilleries), the first Jewish tribe, i.e. bani Qainuqa', challenged the Muslims of Madinah by stating that it was easy for them to defeat the Makkans but the Jews of bani Qainuqa' are better and won't lose as easily.

Having heard this, Muhammad s.a.w. and the fellow Muslims did not retaliate with brutality, but they surrounded the tribe's premises. This went on for days (more than 10) and they finally gave up. They were banished from Madinah due to their arrogance without any blood spilt.

The second Jewish tribe, bani Nadir, had different ideas. They planned the murder of Muhammad s.a.w. The plan was actually to call on Muhammad s.a.w. to their premise and they would drop a stone on top of his head. When Muhammad reached their place he decided to turn back. He sent one individual to declare banishment of bani Nadir from Madinah. They refused. The Muslims of Madinah surrounded bani Nadir as they did bani Qainuqa' and several days later (less than 10) they moved. Without any blood spilt again.

The third Jewish tribe's (bani Qurayzah) misdeed was different and much more treacherous. During one of the war with the Makkans (if I'm not mistaken it is the Khandaq war), the Muslims had dug the surrounding areas of Madinah so as to act like a buffer. The Makkans did not have any way to attack Madinah and were left depleted after several days. The Jews however, provided the Makkans with aids and sustenance. This however could not help them in the long run and they decided to turn back.

The Jews were left wanting. They helped the enemy in war. They were disloyal to their own state. Of course, in any jurisdiction in the modern world, the tribe would be subjected to heavy punishment.

Muhammad s.a.w. initially had no intention to punish them. But then he received a revelation. He decided that the best person to determine the punishment was one of bani Qurayzah's former leader -- who had professed Islam. His decision was beheading the male and able and banishing the rest. Remember, this is their own former leader who decided so. In any country in this modern world such treacherous deeds would not be left unpunished.

These stories are historical and factual, and it shows the diplomacy in Islam. The Jews only had themselves to blame for their problems. What Muhammad s.a.w. and Islam did was only prudent. Even when the Muslims wanted to take back Makkah, they did not do it with an act of aggression. It was a bloodless victory that won them Makkah.

The Zionist Jews of Israel however is of a totally different composition. They plunder, kill and commit acts of brutality to gain what was originally not theirs anyway. They sidelined the people of Palestine, rightful owners of the land they live in. They want people to recognize their state, having bulldozed through it in the beginning.

They were located there and supported by the Europeans so that there are non-Arabs in the Arab land (the middle east) in 1948. Now they reign supreme in the land that belong to others. They expect us to recognize them having witnessed continuous acts of aggression, oppression and crime. They blame Hamas for what is happening right now when Hamas only did those things because they were pushed to the limits. Can anyone stand by and watch their family members, relatives, friends and so on, get pummeled and killed day by day?

The people of Palestine have endured many heartaches and losses that it is not fair at all to say, they deserve what is being done to them. Are we forced to recognize terror in the form of Israel? Israel does not even exist prior to 1948. Jews existed, but not Israel. Zionism is the cause of it all. No, the Palestinians did not initiate anything, they weren't even retaliating, the Palestinians were just defending themselves.

There are thousands of pictures and images which shows the brutality of Israel, are we too ignorant to recognize them? We cannot rely on the UN, they are puppets of bigger entities. But we can rely on individuals who hates aggression and torment. That is what the Israelis are doing, and have been doing since they illegally occupied Palestine. This is not something that has been happening in a matter of days or months, this has been going on for years. Don't blame Hamas for launching missiles, blame Israel for their acts which caused the missile launching.

Islam as I have said has never been about war, terror, murder, oppression and any other negative aggressive words you can think of. It is in fact about peace. We do accept peace treaties. But can we ever trust the Israelis? History has taught us otherwise. If they are sincere I'm sure no one in Hamas, Fatah, Hizbullah, JI, PAS or any other Muslim organization would refuse a peace treaty. But they have constantly betrayed Muslims' trust and violated international criminal laws.

Boycott them, and their proxies.
