It also contains this command:”Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah; and those with him are ruthless against the unbelievers, merciful among themselves”

Special “conquest” prayers were held across all of Turkey’s 90,000 mosques on Jan. 20 and Jan. 21 for the victory of the country’s military, which launched a cross border operation in Syria’s northwestern Afrin region on Jan. 20 against the Syrian Kurdish People’s Protection Units (YPG).

I am pretty sure that the Kurds are Muslims.

So much for “merciful among themselves”.

“I am pretty sure that the Kurds are Muslims.”

In Iraq they are. Very high percentage.

In Syria, They are not. The Syrian Kurds fight alongside Chrisitans and atheists. They are totally sectarian in outlook. The percentages are not well know. Possibly 1/2 Muslim, 1/4 Atheist, 1/4 Christian?? And some Ezidi. It depends greatly upon which community you look at.
