Mozaffar at other|matters writes to Muslims about the Jewish mirror:
If the Prophet -p- has been reported to have said that we (Muslims) and they (the Jewish people) are so alike that we are like two shoes of a pair, then what does that tell you? Further, look at al-Baqarah; our Blessed Creator speaks to us by way of speaking to the Children of Israel, and then (almost immediately afterwards) speaks directly to us. He even repeats some of the same things that He says to them. What does that tell you? As a community, explore all the different personality types we have. Look at our community aspirations and concerns, successes and mistakes. You'll see the exact same thing among the Jewish people. Compare histories; you will see amazing similarities... ...Thus, in terms of Muslims and Jews, we have that collective commonality as two shoes of a pair. Mirror images of each other. If you as a Muslim really want to see yourself, take a good honest look at the Jews. Like it or not, that's the reality.I tried not to excerpt too much, but it was hard. I encourage Muslims to read the whole thing. Anti-semitism is like a cancer eating the umma away from within and we have to get past that. Via thabet.
