Allah (swt) says:
“We have sent you not but as a mercy for all creatures.” (TMQ al-Anbiya: 107)
“We have sent you but as a Messenger to all mankind, giving them glad tidings, and warning them against sin, but most men know not.” (TMQ Saba: 28)
These Ayahs are very clear that the Prophet (saw) was sent for the whole humanity and not just for the Muslims. Furthermore, the Prophet (saw) applied Islam on the non-Muslims in the Islamic State. Thus, the non-Muslims were subjected to the same Islamic system of ruling, economics, punishments and judicial processes as Muslims were without any discrimination. However, the performance of prayer, fasting, etc. is only accepted from the Muslims since the prerequisite for performing these acts of „Ibadah (worship) is to be a Muslim.
Finally, based on Islam, the Non-Muslims are allowed to practice their own religion, marital, divorce affairs according to their beliefs. Furthermore, they are treated in the matters of food and clothing according to their religion, within the rules of the Shari‟ah.
