Various teachings of Islam/
Fight and kill those who believe not in Allah nor in the Last Day, for forbid that which has been forbidden by Allah and his messenger (Mohammed), and those who acknowledge not the religion of the truth (Islam) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), fight and kill them until they pay the Joiah (tax), with willing submission and feel themselves subdued." (9:29)
"Then kill the infidel wherever you find them, can capture them and besiege them and lie in wait for them in each and every ambush." (2:191)
"O, you who believe! Take not the Jew and the Christian as friends and protectors; they are not but friends of each other." (5:51)
