The Jews in the Qur’an are called the strongest of all people in enmity toward the Muslims (5:82); they fabricate things and falsely ascribe them to Allah (2:79; 3:75, 3:181); they claim that Allah’s power is limited (5:64); they love to listen to lies (5:41); they disobey Allah and never observe his commands (5:13). They are disputing and quarreling (2:247); hiding the truth and misleading people (3:78); staging rebellion against the prophets and rejecting their guidance (2:55); being hypocritical (2:14, 2:44); giving preference to their own interests over the teachings of Muhammad (2:87); wishing evil for people and trying to mislead them (2:109); feeling pain when others are happy or fortunate (3:120); being arrogant about their being Allah’s beloved people (5:18); devouring people’s wealth by subterfuge (4:161); slandering the true religion and being cursed by Allah (4:46); killing the prophets (2:61); being merciless and heartless (2:74); never keeping their promises or fulfilling their words (2:100); being unrestrained in committing sins (5:79); being cowardly (59:13-14); being miserly (4:53); being transformed into apes and pigs for breaking the Sabbath (2:63-65; 5:59-60; 7:166); and more. They are under Allah’s curse (9:30), and Muslims should wage war against them and subjugate them under Islamic hegemony (9:29).
“Friday Sermon In Yasuj, Iran By Khamenei’s Representative Nassir Hosseini: If You Can Afford To Go On Hajj But Don’t, You Might Die As A Jew,” MEMRI, April 28, 2023:
In an April 28, 2023 Friday sermon delivered in Yasuj, Iran, Nassir Hosseini, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei’s representative in Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad Province discussed the importance of Hajj. He said that according to a hadith, the Prophet Muhammad said that if a person is well-off and healthy enough to afford to go on the Hajj pilgrimage but chooses not to go, “he might die as a Jew.” The sermon was aired on Dena TV (Iran) April 28, 2023.
Nassir Hosseini:”There are those who are wealthy but do not want to go on Hajj. There are those who have real estate, and if they sell off 100, 50, or 10 square meters, they can afford to go on Hajj twice, but they refuse. This will cause them hardship.
“The Prophet said that if a person is rich but does not perform the Hajj, he might die as a Jew. There is such a hadith. A person on his deathbed could die as a member of the Jewish religion. A person who is financially well-off and physically healthy, and does not perform Hajj can be thrown out of Islam. In the last moment, he will die in the Jewish religion, as you see in the hadith.”

Allah’s mandatory field trip.
FYI says
“And verily WE gave the Children of Israel the scripture and the Command and the PROPHETHOOD and provided them with good things and favored them above all peoples”
koran 45:16
So allah acknowledges that the Children of Israel were given the right of Prophethood.
And this is funny when we remember muhammed is NOT associated with the Children of Israel which is why he cannot be in the Bible despite the islamic claim that he is:he’s not qualified to be in it!
The Jews were given that privilege.
Bexarkat says
Calling a Muslim a “Jew” has been and remains today a slur. Muslims so despise Jews they seethe at the idea that Jews are equal to (and very often are superior to) Muslims.

The usual moronic, irrational, meaningless drivel that you get from these islamic preachers and “scholars”. What a bunch of fuckwits they are. So this clown is saying that allah, that foul version of god, will step in and turn a Muslim into a Jew if the Muslim doesn’t spend his money on the pilgrimage. Yeah, right. Sounds like this moron is trying to drum up money, through tourism, for the people at Mecca. He probably gets paid some kind of bribe to spout this bullshit
Mark Spahn says
What a strangely deficient report. Nassir Hosseini says there is a hadith of a certain content, but will not give its number (and “sahih” status), and will not even quote it? Why? If you are rich and healthy but do not go on Hajj, he says you “can be thrown out of Islam.” I did not know that Islam has an excommunication mechanism. Who has authority to throw whom out of Islam? Please cite a few historical examples of Islamic excommunication. And why are deathbed conversions of such people to Judaism, rather than to Seventh-Day Adventism or some other non-Islamic religion?
abu taleb says
Does it matter if the wealth comes from criminal activities? If the victims are non muslims certainly it doesn’t matter as long as the muslims worship Allah.
Luckily, the prophet has beed dead, otherwise, muslims must also give 20% of the criminal activities to the prophet in addition of worshipping Allah.
Rarely says
A very good reason NOT to go on Hajj. It’s no threat but a promise.
dollops says
A mandatory Hajj is typical of the many mandates of Islam. What other religion mandates, under threat of Earthly consequences, any behaviour? Muslims live in a culture of fear – threats of jail, fatwa, stoning, beheading and more. Islam is imposed upon its people by “holy” leaders and cold-hearted bullies/murderers.
tim gallagher says
Well said, dollops. That is definitely true about islam, this vile, barbaric religious ideology, it involves nothing but endless bullying and threats
