Nozzi: Medinan verses trump the Meccan ones. Show us some Medinan ones which are tolerant

Nozzi, you write:

>>…. Quran 36:17 (Yusuf Ali), "And our duty is only to proclaim the clear Message."<<

Verses like the one above were all revealed in Mecca when Muhammad did not have armed men under his command. Read Sura Al Tawba to get a taste of the kinds of verses that were revealed in Median to abrogate the tolerant verses of Mecca.
