A couple of points to clarify as well.
Jihad:
Jihad doesn't neccessarily mean war. The word mean struggle, and it can refer to just an inner struggle, like a struggle with addiction. But Jihad can and frequently does mean a physical struggle such as war or other violent act. A violent phsical stuggle again non Muzlims can and often is what is.meant by jihad, but not always. The Koran clearly does use this second , violent meaning of the word at times but sometimes it just means inner struggle. Koran says in 4:95 that Allah has higher regard for Muslims who strive than those who sit at home, and Koran 2:216-217 states "Fighting is prescribed for ye, and ye dislike it. But it is possible ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing that is bad for you. Allah knows and you do not know." From the context we know it refers to physical fighting, not a spirtual struggle.
Sharia:
Sharia technically means just guidance. This "guidance" sharia is derived from the Koran, the Hadiths, consensus of Muslims, and reasoning by analogy from other practices. Since many of the verses and practices dictated by the Koran and explanations and interpretations by thd Hadiths are considered bias and bigoted by modern standards and sensibilities, laws and legal systems base on sharia are intoleranr and not meeting morldern standandards of decency. The Koran dictates that women inherit less than their brothers, and it takes.2 women equal the legal testimony of.one man.
Hadiths historically regarded as authentic by Muslims have specified death for those who leave Islam and death or other severe penalties against those who commit blasphemy or insult Islam or Muhammad. Merely challenging the truth of Islam or questioning the truth or accuracy of the Koran could be considered to be insulting Islam or being guilty of apostacy. The Egyptian Quranic scholar Nasr Abu Zayd was declared an apostate because.of his views on ths Koran, and the courts dissolved his marriage, because non Muslim men are not allowed to marry Muslim women per sharia. While there may be Muslims with a more liberal understanding of Sharia, todate countries that have implemented sharia as the basis of their legal system have all fared poorly in issues of human rights and religious freedom.
Non Muslims status under Islam:
Islam allows restricted rights for some non Muslims, but throughout history and in current practice non Muslims are not treated as full equals ro Muslims, and have restrictions imposed on thrm that are not imposed on Muslims. In almost all countries which Islam dominates, non Muslim men cannot marry Muslim women, but Muslim men can marry non Muslims, for example, and it typically took the testimony of 2 non-muslims to equal that of one Muslim. While Islam freely allows non-Muslims to convert to Islam, it does not allow Muslims to convert to other religions or otherwise leave Islam, apostacy from Islam being punished by death or penalties. The Koran frequently expresses negative views of Kafirs (unbelievers, i.e .non-Muslims) . Koran 4:101 warns Muslims that unbelievers are always the enemy of Muslims, for example.
