Do you have a source for that/
Thx
Yes, the Qur'an.

I hope you can do better than that general reference because the history of Islam... especially when the prophet was alive... is much more tolerant... and in fact, I had read several time that he instructed his followers to respect any "people of the book"... as such, you have remaining Christina groups even in Iraq which is near the center of even the caliphate.
