being mentioned as the pagan Arabs that were attacking the Prophet Muhammad.

And in the essence of the book, which says to speak softly to the Christian, for they are the closest to you in faith, speak kindly to them, for they are the closest to you in faith.

And amongst them you will find men of knowledge.

So in that essence, I don't want this to be as I've seen, you guys have been mentioning some of these debates and the way people go back and forth.

I want to speak...

kindly to one another.

I know we're not going to agree on everything, specifically topics of divinity, which book might be more authentic, and things of that nature, but my faith does not command me to hate Christians.

My religion does not command me to be aggressive towards Christians.

My prophet, the final prophet we believe, the prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him,

did not command us to have animosity towards Christians.

Actually, on the contrary, he commanded his first followers to seek refuge as they were being oppressed by the infidels during his time, which were the pagan Arabs, which were his tribesmen, which was his own family.

And they were persecuted for a decade.

And at that time, when it became very hostile in Mecca, he commanded his followers to go to the ancient kingdom of Abyssinia and they were saved by a Christian kingdom.

How can we, how can our founder of our faith send us to seek refuge to Christians?

And then the world wants to classify them as infidels on our behalf.

That is 100% historically inaccurate.

And it's not true.

We are not enemies.

And my philosophy is we both believe Jesus Christ is the anointed one.

That's what the word Messiah means.
