the Ishmaelites today, ...According to the Rambam: <br /><br />the Ishmaelites today, all of them, women and children, have ceased to believe in idolatry and their mistake is . . . in other things . . . however in attributing Oneness to God—they have no mistake at all."<br /><br />(Responsa #448).<br /><br />(See also Mishneh Torah, Hilchot Avodat Kochavim chapter 8;S.A., YD 146:5;Rama Responsa Melamed Le'hoil, part 2:55;Responsa Ateret Paz (part 1, vol. 2, Yoreh De'ah 7) which quotes the Ritva (commenting on Talmud Avodah Zarah h 64b) "the Ishmaelites do not worship idolatry, they cannot abolish it." And there are many more). <br /><br />Islamic law (Sharia) is based upon Jewish law and there are very few (ritual) differences between the two. <br /><br />To state the Muslims are "backward" would be to infer that Jews are also backward.<br /><br />That being said, the King of Morocco who is a great friend to the Jewish people has retracted his pardon because he was not aware of the circumstances of this case. The perpetrator has been arrested in Spain.
