Yes, they ruled Spain for 800 years, and perhaps they didn't force, however, all those who wanted to stay with their faith had to pay a special tax. Furthermore, it was the Inquisition that wiped out most of the Jews, especially the conversos.
In the history of Judaism if there were any supporters of Jews they were the Muslims. For example, when Spain had kicked out the Jews, they were the Muslim rulers who brought them back to Spain and created all facilities for them to prosper alongside with the Muslims. The golden era of Jews in Europe was the era of Muslim Spain.

Please provide some historical references so I can check the authenticity of the statement about supressed Indians under Muslim rulers in India.
Quote:Impact of Islamic conquest on Hindu religion[edit]
Medieval invasions on India led to killings of millions of Hindu men and women[29][27] and left a deep impact on social aspects and religions customs of Hindu population.
Until end of first millennium Hindu philosophy and traditions enjoyed a significant amount of flexibility and adaptability.[107] Research and representation of sex (viz. Kama Sutra and Khajuraho) was not a taboo. Debates of different religious and philosophical aspects were organized and cherished. Hindu sciences and research in Yoga, Ayurveda, Spiritual research, Mathematics[108] and Philosophy achieved great heights in this golden age.[109][110]
The invasions, wars, conversions, massacres and destruction of temples and universities led to social insecurity and political instability. With fall of Hindu kings, research of sciences and philosophy faced some setback due to lack of funding, royal support and open environment.[111][112] Many rituals and customs were restricted as a natural reaction of self defense and survival. The religious sects lost facility of debates and exchange of ideas.
Idols in numerous temples were unarmed, temples were desecrated.[113] Several ancient temples that were considered architectural masterpiece of those times were demolished.[114][115] This altered the architecture of the temples in the north and central India. The temples built in this era are found to be smaller, simpler, low cost and at times have adopted some Islamic architectural shapes as well.[116][117]
It is speculated that the flexible varna system that existed in India for centuries, slowly converted into the modern caste system by 15th century. The medieval era Islamic Sultanates in India utilized social stratification to rule and collect tax revenue from non-Muslims. Richard Eaton[118] states that, "Looking at Bengal's Hindu society as a whole, it seems likely that the caste system - far from being the ancient and unchanging essence of Indian civilization as supposed by generations of Orientalists - emerged into something resembling its modern form only in the period 1200-1500".
While Sanskrit language and research on Vedantic philosophy faced a period of struggle,[111][112] vernacular regional languages based on Sanskrit thrived. A lot of Vedantic literature got translated into these languages between 12th to 15th centuries.[119] The new customs that took place of age old rituals were mostly specific to local regions, languages and caste thereby dividing the Hindu community.
Do I really need to carry on? The bolded part is mine. So, Hindus were open to ideas, flexible and were leading the world in most things. However, when the muslim invaders came, that all changed and from that, was born a rotten system that is still used today. Are you still going to sit there and tell me that Islam is a "peaceful religion?"

Your Mohammed is simply a warmongerer and if Jesus was real, Mohammed was the devil incarnate, or Shei'tan.

It takes 10,000 muslims to kill 21 Sikhs. Shows how bad they really were in their wars. Moral of the story, if you are a muslim, don't piss off a Sikh.....:-D
