170. In the Holy Books is fighting against People of the Scripture encouraged?
the Bible No
Yes the Quran
the Bible's Perspective
Romans 12:18If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men.
1 Peter 3:14-17But even if you should suffer for righteousness’ sake, you are blessed. “Don’t fear what they fear, neither be troubled.” But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts. Always be ready to give an answer to everyone who asks you a reason concerning the hope that is in you, with humility and fear, having a good conscience. Thus, while you are spoken against as evildoers, they may be disappointed who curse your good way of life in Christ. For it is better, if it is God’s will, that you suffer for doing what is right than for doing evil.
the Quran's Perspective
Al-Tawba (Repentance) 9:29Fight against such of those who have been given the Scripture as believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, and forbid not that which Allah hath forbidden by His messenger, and follow not the Religion of Truth, until they pay the tribute readily, being brought low.
Al-Ahzab (Confederates) 33:26And He brought those of the People of the Scripture who supported them down from their strongholds, and cast panic into their hearts. Some ye slew, and ye made captive some.
