An Analysis of and Response to the Most Important Doubts Regarding the Conflict between Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and Bani-Quraytha Jews

The present paper analyses the doubt regarding the massacre of Bani-Quraytha Jews by the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). It has been carried out by analyzing the historical and Quranic data in a "technical" way. Citing various evidence and reviewing different viewpoints, the paper proves that the war men of the above-mentioned tribe were executed because of their betrayal, hypocrisy, casting doubts, frequent violation of treaties, helping idolatrous enemies and trying to destroy the incipient Islamic system. Of course, the exaggerated statistics about the number of deaths are not accepted. This study explains the great crime of Bani-Quraytha, their dubious and false claims about being the victims of injustice, the Prophet’s (pbuh) violence and the innocence of his opponents. This way we can take away from the opponents the pretext for full scale propaganda invasion in this regard and provide a context for constructive interaction and more understanding and sympathy with the followers of other religions. Moreover, ancient historical narrations about the captives are not correct, including the narration which claims, based on the historical narratives, the captives were moved to the Levant. Understanding the truth in this regard requires thorough and in-depth research.
