The Jews in the Qur’an are called the strongest of all people in enmity toward the Muslims (5:82); they fabricate things and falsely ascribe them to Allah (2:79; 3:75, 3:181); they claim that Allah’s power is limited (5:64); they love to listen to lies (5:41); they disobey Allah and never observe his commands (5:13). They are disputing and quarreling (2:247); hiding the truth and misleading people (3:78); staging rebellion against the prophets and rejecting their guidance (2:55); being hypocritical (2:14, 2:44); giving preference to their own interests over the teachings of Muhammad (2:87); wishing evil for people and trying to mislead them (2:109); feeling pain when others are happy or fortunate (3:120); being arrogant about their being Allah’s beloved people (5:18); devouring people’s wealth by subterfuge (4:161); slandering the true religion and being cursed by Allah (4:46); killing the prophets (2:61); being merciless and heartless (2:74); never keeping their promises or fulfilling their words (2:100); being unrestrained in committing sins (5:79); being cowardly (59:13-14); being miserly (4:53); being transformed into apes and pigs for breaking the Sabbath (2:63-65; 5:59-60; 7:166); and more. They are under Allah’s curse (9:30), and Muslims should wage war against them and subjugate them under Islamic hegemony (9:29).
A hadith depicts Muhammad specifying the punishment for homosexual activity: “The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, ‘Whoever you find doing the action of the people of Loot, execute the one who does it and the one to whom it is done.’” (Sunan Abu Dawud 4462)
“After four years in prison in Turkey, Fabien Azoulay speaks in his release in France,” translated from “Après quatre ans de prison en Turquie, Fabien Azoulay se confie à sa libération en France,” La Depeche, November 6, 2021 (thanks to Medforth):
At the microphone of BFM TV, Fabien Azoulay said he was “relieved” and “happy” to have been reunited with his loved ones.
Three days after his release, Fabien Azoulay confided his relief in an interview broadcast Friday on BFMTV. He had been sentenced to almost 17 years in prison in Turkey and then five years in Paris.
The 43-year-old man was arrested in Instanbul [sic] in 2017 in possession of GBI, a solvent classified as “narcotic” and banned in Turkey, but listed in France only as “poisonous substance.” Ingested in small quantities, it can be used as a sexual stimulant.
Fabien Azoulay was accused of having bought a bottle of GBL on the Internet; it was delivered to his hotel while he was in Turkey to perform hair implants. He was unaware, according to his lawyers, that this product was banned in that country. “I bought a two-liter can – that was the minimum order quantity, for fun,” he explained on BFMTV.
Fabien Azoulay was then placed in detention for four years. He was allegedly the victim of violence during his detention, due, according to his lawyers, to his Jewish religion and his homosexuality. “An inmate assaulted me, who had arrived two days earlier in the cell. He threw a kettle of hot water on my body, face, shouting Allahu akbar. Clearly, someone had told him that I was Jewish or gay,” he said.
“I feel relieved, happy to be with my loved ones”
Today, “I feel much better than when I was imprisoned. I feel relieved, happy to be with my loved ones, my family, my friends,” he said. “I do not yet fully realize it. It’s like a soft landing. ”
After an exchange between Macron and his Turkish counterpart Erdogan, on the sidelines of the NATO summit on June 14, the transfer of the tourist was obtained and he arrived in prison on August 17 before being released on Tuesday due to a penalty adjustment.
From now on, for Fabien Azoulay, the objective is to “do everything” so that his name “is cleared of all accusations.” He feels he needs to “rebuild” himself, and “to try to appreciate the little things in life, the autumn leaves, the Parisian cold. It’s a rebirth for me. And at one time or another. to another, go home to New York.”

– “Jews and Christians are filthy. Their lives and property can be taken in jihad by the Muslims.” –Dr. Abu Ammaar Yaser Qadhi, Tennessee
Note that the actual physical life of Jews and Christians are not worth preserving.
This hatred of the lives of the kafirs is canonical, normative Islam, rather than an aberration.
Killing kafirs for Allah?
– “Killing a Kafir who is fighting you is OK. Killing a Kafir for any reason (e.g. criticism of Islam), you can say, it is OK – even if there is NO REASON for it. You can poison, ambush and kill non-believers. You must have a stand with your heart, with your tongue, with your money, with your hand, with your sword, with your Kalashnikov. Don’t ask shall I do this, just do it.”Abu Hamza al-Masri (Egyptian born British Cleric)
– from a lecture given by Sheikh Abdullah al-Faisal (H.A.): “The implication of al-Baraa is that one HATES for the sake of Allah (SWT)…Al-Baraa means to recognize who your enemies are and to HATE THEM and EXTERMINATE THEM in their Endeavour to get rid of your Deen, al-Islam…Al-Baraa is to HATE the people who propagate Baatil (falsehood)—the Muslim should HATE them and (at least desire to) KILL THEM when the time comes.”
(Note that Al-Faisal says : not ‘if the time comes’, but ‘WHEN the time comes.)
– “Act like you are his friend (the kafir). Then kill him.” – Sheikh Muburak Gilani

Abu Hamza al-Masri, “Hook hands”, is now in prison in USA. He had been conspiring to set up a jihadi training camp in USA. He was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

”(The Jews) claim that Allah’s power is limited (5:64).” It is limited because Allah is the Arab version of Satan as they ascribe to God.—Consider this, which religion has a deity who explicitly calls for the destruction of otherwise thinking? You are right! An exception is polytheistic religions such as Hinduism with the great destructor Shiva.

To be a non-muslim in a muslim prison your in for a hard time, but to be gay and Jewish on top of that, must be a nightmare.
