Background of the Quote!

Verse 29 of chapter 9 of the Qur'an is notable as dealing with the imposition of tribute (ǧizya) on non-Muslims who have fallen under Muslim rule (the ahl al-ḏimma).

"Fight those who do not believe in Allah or in the Last Day and who do not consider unlawful what Allah and His Messenger have made unlawful and who do not adopt the religion of truth from those who were given the Scripture - [fight] until they give the jizyah willingly while they are humbled".

"If one wants to live in an Islamic country, S/he has three options,1.Convert to Islam,2.Leave the country,3.Pay Protection money, better Known as 'Gunda Tax' and in legal terms,'Jizyah' to Muslim authorities as penalty for refusing to accept Islam and in the name of protection of their lives and property and their religion unmolested. The tax is to be paid in person and in humble way to remind them for their lower status. Allah created humankind from single pair of male and female to live in peace and harmony not that ye may despise each other. Had the God of Quran been lord of creatures and merciful, He would have never commanded to 'put the infidel to sword', as such there is no connection of Islam with God "

Now I learnt that both my favorites are somehow related to the cow! Surprised? I share my research  with you, as follows :- ladybugs/ lady birds called "God's cows" in some languages (such as Russian, French, Hebrew, etc.) The creature beloved in many countries. In Russian, we call it “God’s cow”. Yep, something like this. Ladybugs smell with their feet and antennae. The farmers began to call the Ladybugs “the Beetles of Our Lady” and eventually they were known as Lady Beetles. The Ladybug's red wings are said to represent the Virgin's cloak and the black spots her joys and sorrows. The Ladybug is widely...
