If you seen conflicting views, don't you think you will get more conflicting views here?

I trust you guys. You tend not to give a lot of conflicting views.

So the assumption is that during the time of the Prophet Muhammad alayi salatu wa salaam, the jews and christians killed by saying the name of Allah first? Even though they were at that time worshipping Jesus, commiting shirk, and belying the messengers? If you say that the christians and jews at that time were upon the real religion of their messengers, then this would essentially eliminate the need for Allah to send down the Qur'an(in theory not in reality), Because these people would still be following their respective religion according to how Allah had willed, and how their messenger had taught them. However this is incorrect, because there were amongst them, who took jesus as God, and who took him as the son, and this can be found in the story of the first hijra, like wise Allah says so himself in numerous ayat, and proof enough against the theory that they were upon the truth(meaning worshipping allah correctly, ie: udhihiya.) is the verses in surah Alfatihah.

For the most part kosher is not halal according to the Sunnipath. However, I have seen for example tea bags that have both halal and kosher labels. Also, when I buy potatoe chips I rely on the ones that say kosher because most cheese products (i.e.Doritos) can not be traced, is not halal nor does it have a kosher symbol.

And Allah Knows Best

I'm not talking about kosher products, because yes they may use non halal ingredients.I'm talking specifically about the meat of ahlul kitab, Jews(which would essentially be kosher meat), and christians.

For a good explanation see the Ma'ariful Qur'an commentary on the initial ayats of Surah Maidah (chapter 5) on www.islamibayanaat.com
