Dhimmi No More,,
tthank you for your reply.
I am not a historian nor a scholar, so i would not be able to write much on this subject.

However, how about the jewish tribes which Mohammed fought with?

What area is it ? How about the Jewish merchants mentioned in Koran or Islamic books ?

Mohammed never travelled much distance from Mecca & Medina and he certainly met and dealt with Jewish people.

So there has to be Jewish people present in those areas.

If there were Jewish people, someone should be able to find some more details.
