Also, this is a 38-minute video rebuttal that refutes David Wood's video, which he called "The Three Stages of Jihad" or "3-Stage Jihad".  I also uploaded the video-rebuttal to my Youtube Channel:

Allah Almighty sent a Prophet and a Messenger to the Arabs because they were fresh and had no previous Prophets before.  They also had no corrupt scriptures like the Jews and Christians had.  The pagan Arabs were ready for a new Prophet and a new Divine Religion.  This is why Prophet Muhammad was sent.  He was sent:

1-  To move the Arabs and mankind from the worship of idols to the worship of the True One Living and Sovereign GOD Almighty of the Universe, and to associate no partners with Him.

2-  To restore the original Faith, which is Islam, after the Jews and Christians had corrupted it and invented their own lies and man-made conjectures and alterations of scriptures.

Furthermore, after Islam prevailed and ruled over the disbelievers, Allah Almighty Commanded the Muslims to:

1-  Be Just to all of the disbelievers and all people in general.
2-  Show Mercy and Forgiveness to all disbelievers.
3-  Show the Love of Allah Almighty to all disbelievers.

I've provided ample Noble Verses from the Glorious Quran that proved this.  And these Noble Verses came AFTER Islam became victorious over the disbelievers, not before.  So after the hostile times ended, Allah Almighty Commanded the Muslims to go back to the roots of Islam, which is Justice, Mercy, Kindness, Forgiveness and to show the Love of Allah Almighty to all:

On Justice:

"O ye who believe! stand out firmly for God, as witnesses to fair dealing, and let not the hatred of others to you make you swerve to wrong and depart from justice. Be just: that is next to piety: and fear God. For God is well-acquainted with all that ye do. (The Noble Quran, 5:8)"

"God does not forbid you from showing kindness and dealing justly with those who have not fought you about religion and have not driven you out of your homes. God loves just dealers. (The Noble
Quran, 60:8)"

".....Help ye one another in righteousness and piety, but help ye not one another in sin and rancour: fear God: for God is strict in punishment. (The Noble Quran, 5:2)"

"God doth command you to render back your Trusts to those to whom they are due; And when ye judge between man and man, that ye judge with justice: Verily how excellent is the teaching which He giveth you! For God is He Who heareth and seeth all things. (The Noble Quran, 4:58)"

"O ye who believe! stand out firmly for justice, as witnesses to God, even as against yourselves, or your parents, or your kin, and whether it be (against) rich or poor: for God can best protect both..... (The Noble Quran, 4:135)"

On Islam being "Jew Hating" (David Wood made this claim):

"Of the people of Moses there is a section who guide and do justice in the light of truth.  (The Noble Quran, 7:159)"

"It was We who revealed the law (to Moses): therein was guidance and light. By its standard have been judged the Jews, by the prophets who bowed (as in Islam) to God's will, by the rabbis and the doctors of law: for to them was entrusted the protection of God's book, and they were witnesses thereto: therefore fear not men, but fear me, and sell not my signs for a miserable price. If any do fail to judge by (the light of) what God hath revealed, they are (no better than) Unbelievers. (The Noble Quran, 5:44)"

"Those who believe (in the Quran), and those who follow the Jewish (scriptures), and the Christians and the Sabians,- any who believe in God and the Last Day, and work righteousness, shall have their reward with their Lord; on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve. (The Noble Quran, 2:62)"

On Mercy and Forgiveness:

Let's see Islam's Golden Rule and the Noble Verses that deal with Forgiving and Forgetting the faults of others:

"Those who spend (freely), whether in prosperity, or in adversity; who restrain anger, and pardon (all) men;- for God loves those who do good;-  (The Noble Quran, 3:134)"

"Hold to forgiveness; command what is right; But turn away from the ignorant.  (The Noble Quran, 7:199)"

"We created not the heavens, the earth, and all between them, but for just ends. And the Hour is surely coming (when this will be manifest). So overlook (any human faults) with gracious forgiveness.  (The Noble Quran, 15:85)"

"But because of their breach of their covenant, We cursed them, and made their hearts grow hard; they change the words from their (right) places and forget a good part of the message that was sent them, nor wilt thou cease to find them- barring a few - ever bent on (new) deceits: but forgive them, and overlook (their misdeeds): for God loveth those who are kind.  (The Noble Quran, 5:13)"

"Quite a number of the People of the Book wish they could Turn you (people) back to infidelity after ye have believed, from selfish envy, after the Truth hath become Manifest unto them: But forgive and overlook, Till God accomplish His purpose; for God Hath power over all things.  (The Noble Quran, 2:109)"

"Let not those among you who are endued with grace and amplitude of means resolve by oath against helping their kinsmen, those in want, and those who have left their homes in God's cause: let them forgive and overlook, do you not wish that God should forgive you? For God is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.  (The Noble Quran, 24:22)"

"Tell those who believe, to forgive those who do not look forward to the Days of God: It is for Him to recompense (for good or ill) each People according to what they have earned.  (The Noble Quran, 45:14)"

The Love of Allah Almighty:

"They perform (their) vows, and they fear a Day whose evil flies far and wide. And they feed, for the love of God, the indigent, the orphan, and the captive,- (Saying),"We feed you for the sake of God alone: no reward do we desire from you, nor thanks. "We only fear a Day of distressful Wrath from the side of our Lord."  (The Noble Quran, 76:7-10)"

"But he hath made no haste on the path that is steep. And what will explain to thee the path that is steep?- (It is:) freeing the bondman; Or the giving of food in a day of privation To the orphan with claims of relationship, Or to the indigent (down) in the dust.  Then will he be of those who believe, and enjoin patience, (constancy, and self-restraint), and enjoin deeds of kindness and compassion.  (The Noble Quran, 90:11-17)"

"It is not righteousness that ye turn your faces Towards east or West; but it is righteousness- to believe in God and the Last Day, and the Angels, and the Book, and the Messengers; to spend of your substance, out of love for Him, for your kin, for orphans, for the needy, for the wayfarer, for those who ask, and for the ransom of slaves; to be steadfast in prayer, and practice regular charity; to fulfil the contracts which ye have made; and to be firm and patient, in pain (or suffering) and a dversity, and throughout all periods of panic. Such are the people of truth, the God-fearing.  (The Noble Quran, 2:177)"

"They ask thee what they should spend (In charity). Say: Whatever ye spend that is good, is for parents and kindred and orphans and those in want and for wayfarers. And whatever ye do that is good, -God knoweth it well.  (The Noble Quran, 2:215)"

"And render to the kindred their due rights, as (also) to those in want, and to the wayfarer: But squander not (your wealth) in the manner of aspendthrift.  (The Noble Quran, 17:26)"

On Wife Beating in Islam:

The Glorious Quran commands the beating of the NASHIZ (loose, flirty, unjustly defiant) wife after the 2nd warning was given to her.  After that, they must sit with elderlies from her side and his to decide on whether the marriage should continue or not.  By the way, the Arabic word DARABA also means to "leave".  It doesn't just mean to "beat", and I've provided several Noble Verses where the word DARABA was used for leaving and traveling abroad from the Glorious Quran.

For normal women who fear Allah Almighty and aren't loose or flirty or unjustly defiant, Allah Almighty and Prophet Muhammad commanded the husbands to:

1-  Never beat their wives.
2-  Never mistreat or bully their wives.
3-  Always speak kind words to their wives.
4-  To provide for their wives peace, love and harmony.

This is a very long topic to discuss here.  I've provided ample Noble Verses and Hadiths in the following link: http://www.answering-christianity.com/beating.htm.  I've also proven from David Wood's Bible that wife-beating is allowed to evil wives.

For all of the points that I discussed earlier, there are many more Noble Verses that I could provide for all of the points that I discussed above.  The Noble Verses that I displayed in this video were only a select few that I chose.
