Shariah law allows the wives of Muslim men to keep their faith of Judaism or Christianity.........
If Islam was out to CONVERT everyone by FORCE then Shariah law would not allow this type of marriage.
Obviously if Islam can co-exist with Christians and Jews in the HOME then outside the home would be even easier !
Muslims are to be examples to all the world……….. people who are impressed with the Islamic way of life must Voluntarily submit themselves to the Lord of Abraham.......if they were forced to submit then their TEST would be Null and Void.
Islam encourages Muslims to live in peaceful co-existance around non Muslims so others can see the Islamic way of life.
FORCED CONVERSIONS would make everyones test NULL and VOID , therefore by definition it is Impossible for Muslims to spread Islam by force.

This is why Muslims do not go door to door.
Our way of life is our message....

The emphasis in Islam is helping fellow Muslims become better examples.
That is where the effort is to be made.

"In the eyes of history, religious toleration is the highest evidence of culture in a people....It was not until the Western nations broke away from their religious law that they became more tolerant, and it was only when the Muslims fell away from their religious law that they declined in tolerance and other evidences of the highest culture. Before the coming of Islam it (tolerance) had never been preached as an essential part of religion... –Marmaduke Pickthall
