Jewish Under Islamic Rule in the Middle Ages

Jews were welcome most time to live there under Islamic rule. The Prophet
Muhammad gives Jews the political and cultural exactly as Muslims. They are also
granted their freedom of religion. Thereafter, ‘Umar gives non-Muslim, including
Jews their safety. The status of the Jews under Muslim rule is better than Goths
during the Medieval Period. In Iberia, Muslims respect Jews. Abd al-Rahman III
hired a Jewish man, Hasadai Ibn Shabrot. Samuel ibn Naghrillah is the most
politically influential Jew in Muslims land in al-Andalus.
