What are the rights of Christians and Jews in Islam?
Christians and Jews living in an Islamic state are citizens that enjoy the freedom of belief, the freedom of travel and move, work of their choosing and the protection of the state. In religious matters they are subject to their religion’s laws but in legal matters they follow the state’s laws.

How did Islam start?
Islam started with the beginning of revelation of Quran to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), when the Angel Gabriel appeared to him outside a cave on the outer skirts of Makkah. Then, Muhammad (PBUH); the last Messenger of Allah; started calling people to the way of Allah over the next twenty three years.
After his death, his companions carried the message and took it upon themselves to propagate the message of Islam to the world. Till this day each and every Muslim is obliged to call for the way of Allah, each according to his/her knowledge and capabilities.
