Answer 6

In Medieval times, the concept of Dar-ul-Islam (Abode of Islam) and Dar-ul-Harb (Abode of War) arose. Dar-ul-Islam meant regions where Muslims were in a majority and could practice their faith freely. In Dar-ul-Harb, Islam and Muslims were considered suppressed--a region dominated by "infidels" who would not allow Islam to spread or who would hinder Muslims from practicing their faith. Against such tyrannies, Muslims were instructed to fight against. However, eventually, the concept of "Dar-ul-Sulah" (Abode of Compromise/ reconciliation) arose to designate countries in which Muslims could live as minorities and practice their religion.

In modern times, Enver Hoxa's Albania or Pol Pot's Cambodia, for example, could be considered "Dar-ul-Harb" because the country didn't allow practice of religion, but in most countries nowadays Muslims can practice their faith freely and proselytize and therefore some of the quotes that are provided by critics of Islam are no longer applicable.

Keep in mind that until only hundred years ago, Muslims in allowed Christians and Jews to practice their faith freely but the same right was not granted to Muslims living in the Christian West.

EDIT:

Other people who have commented have no idea what they are talking about. They are anti-Muslim propagandists. In all the years I lived in the Middle East, I never once heard the expression "Dar-ul-Harb."
