Judaism in Islam is considered as one of the most significant monotheistic religions, and many verses of Quran are dedicated to describing the fate of the followers of this religion. In different verses of the Holy Quran, when Allah wants to mention people of Moses, He calls them “Children of Israel” (Bani-Israel). The reason for which is that they were the generation of Prophet Jacob or Israel (PBUH), who at the time of Prophet Joseph (PBUH), migrated to Egypt and settled there for years [1].

After Pharaohs gained power in Egypt, they started violence against the immigrant generation of Israel by “slaughtering their sons and sparing their women” (28: 4).

Then after so many years, during which Bani-Israel were waiting for a deliverer, Moses was appointed to save them and deliver them from Egypt to the holy land: “O my people, enter the Holy Land which Allah has ordained for you, and do not turn your backs, or you will become losers’” (5: 21). They did not accept to enter the holy land as they were afraid of the people of that land. Therefore, they lost their opportunity and were wandering in the deserts for years. There was no promise that if children of Israel do not act according to God’s orders, they will still inherit the holy land. 

What happened to Jews after Moses?

“We dispersed them into communities around the earth: some of them were righteous, and some of them otherwise, and We tested them with good and bad [times] so that they may come back” (7: 168).
Like any other monotheistic religion that has good or bad followers, the followers of Judaism are either virtuous or sinful according to the above verse of the Holy Quran. 

The bad Jews, mainly known to be Zionists, are those who are committing great sins and have huge racist beliefs. Since they believe they are the higher race and others are somehow their properties. Zionism is not a religion, but a political branch that tries to gain power using any tools, even the religion of Jews. 

Judaism in Islam and Quran

The Holy Quran introduces all prophets as Muslims [2]. Quran strongly defends Jewish believers like the believers of other religions; “Indeed the faithful, the Jews, the Christians and the Sabaeans - those of them who have faith in Allah and the Last Day and act righteously—they shall have their reward from their Lord, and they will have no fear, nor will they grieve” (2: 62).

Quran confirms the book of Moses and says: “We sent down the Torah containing guidance and light” (5:44). And in another verse, it says: “Yet before it, the Book of Moses was a guide and mercy, and this is a Book in the Arabic language, which confirms it…” (46: 12).

Muslims Should Act Respectfully towards Jews

Although Quran confirms that all the prophets were from God and they had the same message, the problem, according to the Quran, is that the book of Moses was distorted by those ignorant and arrogant followers of him.

Accordingly, Islam was sent down to the followers of all prophets and the people of all nations and lands as a final and most complete religion, which was fundamentally the same as their religion. But all true believers and true followers of prophets should now be united in the way of worshipping One God and follow the book of Muhammad (PBUH), who has been mentioned in their books (7: 156-7).

God also warns Muslims that when they wish to convey His messages to the followers of other prophets, they should be respectful towards them: “Do not argue with the People of the Book except in a manner which is best, except such of them as are wrongdoers, and say, ‘We believe in what has been sent down to us and in what has been sent down to you; our God and your God is one [and the same], and to Him do we submit’” (29: 46).

As mentioned in the article on monotheism, from the Islamic point of view, the followers of other religions should realize the perfectness of Islam “despite the distorted image of Islam” in today’s world. They need to reach complete faith based on a firm understanding of Islam as the last and the complete way of life [3].

Respecting the Rabies 

Since Jews were waiting for the last prophet and when some of them found him rise from among Arabs and not from amongst themselves, they denied him, since they had this thought that Islam must belong to a specific land or specific people, and it cannot be a complete universal religion for all lands at all times.

God mentions the rabbis with so much respect in the Quran and expects them to enlighten their people in worshipping one God and not to be fighting against each other while they worship the same God: “We sent down the Torah containing guidance and light. The prophets, who had submitted, judged by it for the Jews, and so did the rabbis and the scribes, as they were charged to preserve the Book of Allah and were witnesses to it...” (5: 44).

Conclusion

Going through the story of Prophet Moses (PBUH) and explaining it in details in the Quran had two major reasons:

1. Since when Muhammad was assigned as a prophet, Jews annoyed him in every possible way, God kept sending revelations regarding their past actions and their behavior towards Prophet Moses from whom they had seen many miracles. 

2. The story of Jewish people and how they saw the miracles of their prophet and yet, they kept denying him, is repeatedly explained in the Quran, to be a lesson for Muslims. Muslims should remember that they had hard times, too, like the Jews, and they should not become arrogant because the last prophet was raised amongst them. Muslims should not make complaints against God’s orders, and by remembering the history of Jews, they should keep in mind that if they decline Allah’s commands, they will lose their opportunities since blessing is given to those who are God-wary: 

“If the people of the towns had been faithful and God-wary, We would have opened to them blessings from the heaven and the earth. But they denied; so We seized them because of what they used to earn” (7: 96).

Life is a journey full of twists and turns. Without a guide in this deceptive path, one can become lost, forfeiting something that cannot be regained - the precious gift of redemption. That is why Islam emphasizes the need for Muslims to never be without a leader. Prophet Mohammad (PBUH&HP) is the best example of a Muslim within Islam.

There has certainly been for you in the Messenger of Allah an excellent pattern for anyone whose hope is in Allah and the Last Day and [who] remembers Allah often. (The Holy Quran 33:21)

O you who have faith! Obey Allah and His Apostle, and do not turn away from him while you hear [him]. (The Holy Quran 8:20)

These Quranic verses firmly establish that no one surpasses Prophet (PBUH&HP) as the ideal role model, guiding us to emulate his actions and lifestyle for our salvation. When we follow someone as a model in our life, we inherently respect his beliefs and ideas. 

From this, we deduce that if our model is devoted to Islam, religion, and the path of Allah's pleasure, we will also try to align ourselves with that path and potentially attain spiritual ascension. Our model here is not an ordinary person but our dear Prophet. Therefore, there is no disputing the goodwill of this revered figure. An important thing that we must learn from the Prophet (PBUH&HP) as the supreme model for Muslims is to know whom to love and whom to dislike.

The question is: how does understanding Prophet’s feelings towards individuals would help us? 
The answer lies in this: “By following the Prophet as an example, we can accurately discern these people, subsequently progressing toward Allah’s satisfaction and eternal happiness.” 

Two figures whom the Prophet constantly favored were Imam Hassan and Imam Hussein (as). Imam Hussein (AS) was born on the third of Sha'ban in the fourth year of AH.

Since the great Prophet passing in the tenth year of AH, Imam Hassan and Imam Hussein (AS) spent their childhood with their dear grandfather.

Before delving further, let us know more about our third Imam. Imam Hussein (as) is also called Aba-Abdillah and Sayyid al-Shuhada among the Shias. He is the third Imam for the Shias, martyred in the course of Ashura. He is the second child of Imam Ali (AS) and Fatemeh Zahra (AS), and the grandson of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH&HP). Following his brother Imam Hassan’s (AS) leadership, he took charge of leading the Shias for ten years. Both Shia and Sunni historical records confirm that the Prophet of Islam (PBUH&HP) announced his martyrdom at his birth and chose the name "Hussein" for him. (1)

The Prophet held deep affection for Imam Hassan and Imam Hussein and recommended everyone to love them. Imam Hussein (AS) is one of the of Prophet’s Ahl al-Bayt and also one of the recipients of the verse of purification*.

Numerous narrations from Prophet Mohammad (PBUH&HP) extol Imam Hussain’s virtue. A famous narration quotes the Prophet (PBUH&HP) on Imam Hussain (AS): “Hussain is from me and I am from Hussain. Allah loves who loves Hussain.” (2)

Through this narration, the Holy Prophet (PBUH&HP) show other Muslims the sacred position of Imam Hussein (PBUH) and imparts the exceptional stature of this lineage. In an era where falsehood and hypocrisy infiltrate the Muslim community, this saying compels believers to rid themselves of hypocrisy and misguidance. 

Regrettably, despite its resonance, this profound message did not deter the brutal martyrdom of Sayyid al-Shuhada (PBUH), which transpired in the Karbala before thousands of seemingly Muslim individuals.

The Prophet’s (PBUH&HP) adoration for Imam Hussein (AS) served a dual purpose: it conveyed not only his love for his grandson, but also aimed to engender affection towards Imam Hussein as the Imam of the Ummah, rallying people to follow him. Therefore, the Holy Prophet of Islam consistently introduced the Imam Ali, Fatima Zahra, Imam Hassan and Imam Hussein (AS) as his family and Ahl al-Bayt. He equated them with the Quran on numerous occasions,  underscoring the necessity for Muslims to accept their leadership and guidance for spiritual elevation. The Prophet also said this in the hadith of the thaqalayn: 

"Indeed, I am leaving two things among you, to which if you hold yourself, you will never astray: the book of Allah –who is almighty and great- and my Ahl al-Bayt (household), my 'itra (family). O people hear! And I have announced to you that indeed you will enter my presence and I will ask you about what you did to the thaqalayn (two weighty things) and the thaqalayn are the book of Allah and my Ahl al-Bayt."(3)

Conclusion: 

These narrations illuminate Imam Hussein’s (AS) lofty status in the the Prophet’s (PBUH&HP)eyes and the Prophet’s responses to him serves as a guide. Not only are Muslims, as followers of the Holy Prophet, must praise and love Imam Hussein, but we must also adopt his behavior, thoughts, and ethics, and follow his path in our lives. Furthermore, the Prophet's interactions with Imam Hussein underscore that those who harbor hostility or animosity towards him today are not true Muslims. This group should not be regarded as part  of the Prophet’s (PBUH&HP) religion.

*The Verse of Purification is the 33rd verse of Al-Aḥzāb in the Quran (33:33). The verse has special importance for Shia Muslims due to giving information about Ahl al-Bayt of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH&HP). Shias reportedly believe it to designate the "Ahl al-Bayt" being infallible.
