If Islam is violent as they claim

"A priest’s testimony:

“If Islam is violent as they claim, no Christian or Jew would have survived the early muslim conquest!”

In this touching and peaceful message, Father Elias Zahlawi, a Christian priest from Damascus, Syria, speaks from the heart about the true face of Islam. He reminds the world that what many in the West call “Muslim terrorism” has nothing to do with Islam — a faith that has always promoted coexistence, compassion, and respect for all humanity.

Born and raised among both Christians and Muslims, Father Elias shares his personal experience of friendship, harmony, and brotherhood in the land where these faiths have lived side by side for centuries. This short speech is not just a statement — it’s a testimony of truth and peace from a man who has lived it.

Quran 60:8
As for those who have not fought against you for your religion, nor expelled you from your homes, God does not prohibit you from dealing with them kindly and equitably. God loves the equitable.

Quran 5:82-83
82. You will find that the people most hostile towards the believers are the Jews and the polytheists. And you will find that the nearest in affection towards the believers are those who say, “We are Christians.” That is because among them are priests and monks, and they are not arrogant.

83. And when they hear what was revealed to the Messenger, you see their eyes overflowing with tears, as they recognize the truth in it. They say, “Our Lord, we have believed, so count us among the witnesses.”"
