Garudaman:
Ibn Kathir gives the definition of surah 9.30 which rests on the incorrect assumption that the Jews took a renowned Jewish scholar as “the son of Allah “together with the Christians who take Jesus as “the son of Allah” the penalty of which is to be fought against, to be brought into submission to Allah’s laws.
This proves that Allah cannot be the God of the Bible, as the God of the Bible does not prescribe warfare against anyone who does not believe in him.
This means Islam is based on a false assumption, i.e.a lie, because Allah claims to be the same God who gave Jesus His authority to preach, as all previous Bible prophets did, to repent from sin and to obey Yahweh’s Commandments, not Allah’s commands.
Ironically, it is an alleged prophet of Islam, Jesus the Messiah, who claimed to be the Son of God, for which He was condemned to death, as to do so was seen as blasphemy to the Jews, proving Ezra could not have been called “the son of god “ by the Jews,because anyone doing so would have lost his life.
Mark 14:61-65New International Version (NIV)
61 But Jesus remained silent and gave no answer.
Again the high priest asked him, “Are you the Messiah, the Son of the Blessed One?”
62 “I am,” said Jesus. “And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven.”
63 The high priest tore his clothes. “Why do we need any more witnesses?” he asked. 64 “You have heard the blasphemy. What do you think?”
They all condemned him as worthy of death. 65 Then some began to spit at him; they blindfolded him, struck him with their fists, and said, “Prophesy!” And the guards took him and beat him.
The Quran is therefore wrong when it says the Jews take Ezra as a “son of Allah “they don’t, the Quran proves by its own admission it cannot come from a divine source, as an omnipotent being would not turn such a fundamental error into a religious “truth “and by doing so, not only has mis led countless millions to believe something which is not true, but has advocated and condoned violence towards Non Muslims, for the sole reason of their not accepting Allah as the only god, thereby violating the commands of the very god it claims to represent.
Ibn Kathir 9.30
Fighting the Jews and Christians is legislated because They are Idolators and Disbelievers
Allah the Exalted encourages the believers to fight the polytheists, disbelieving Jews and Christians, who uttered this terrible statement and utter lies against Allah, the Exalted. As for the Jews, they claimed that `Uzayr was the son of God, Allah is free of what they attribute to Him. As for the misguidance of Christians over `Isa, it is obvious. This is why Allah declared both groups to be liars,
