If the Christians were to follow the Bible as they should, there would be many parts where most governments would ban the Christians, like the law that says the victim of rape must marry the rapist.

As for Jizya, it is a very just law. Many people in Singapore, regardless of religion, would be happy if our government institutes a similar form of tax on us, where we don't have to serve NS if we pay a special tax.

I think the main context is the mistranslation of the Quran about Jizya ...it has nothing to do with Singapore

Should Muslims Levy an Extra Tax on Non-Muslims?

Verse 9:29 is mistranslated by almost every translator. Shakir translates the Arabic word jizya as “tax,” Pickthall as “tribute.” Yusuf Ali, somehow does not translate the word at all. He leaves the meaning of the word at the mercy of distortions:

! Disputed passage: The meaning of the Arabic word jizya (reparation/compensation) has been distorted to mean extra tax for non-Muslims.
