Bible Note: Mist, We are all seeking the truth, but we and your Muslim contacts are willing to say from what position we stand in our search. You are not willing to tell us where you stand or what your point of reference is as you search. It is not your search for truth that irritates your contacts on both sides but you lack of transparency about what you believe. You must believe something. Everyone does. "As for Christians, we know quite well that Muhammad never encountered any at the time before Hijra (before going to Madina). Jews were concentrated in Madina also." How do we know this quite well? Was not Mohammed a caravan trader? Did he not travel far and deal with many communities including Christians and Jews? It is extremely unlikely he dealt only with local pagans in his trade.
