it's not against the quran, but illegal in many countries -- not all -- that's the law those countries have decided to enact and enforce. that repression is conducted against their own citizens, too, which is one of the many reasons people choose to emigrate to the west. |
Sura 9, verse 29:
29. Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.
This is the essence of dhimmitude.
Refer to the last words: "and feel themselves <the non-Muslim dhimmis> subdued". What are the historic precendents and methods used by Muslim rulers to achieve this feeling of subjugation?
