Let's take the Jews in Yathrib of the time of Prophet Muhammad صلي الله عليه وسلم for example. Who were they? They were the enemies of Jesus, the people who tried to get him killed. Ergo, they were the enemies of God. Does it follow that they will also be against another prophet of God?
Yes, they were enemies of Jesus from the very beginning..but are they enemies of Muhammad in the first place? No, they welcome him , they accepted Islam and promised him that if he comes to Yathrib they will support and defend him as they support and defend their families and children...He had good relationship with the jews
He even adopted some Jewish customs and practices. However, this relationship became strained and ultimately fractured as Muhammad's teachings and expectations diverged from Jewish beliefs, and he began to criticize their rejection of his prophethood.....
They were not enemies of Islam initially
