When Jerusalem was conquered by muslims-


* Christians and Jews could not bear arms -- Muslims could;
* Christians and Jews could not ride horses -- Muslims could;
* Christians and Jews had to get permission to build -- Muslims did not;
* Christians and Jews had to pay certain taxes which Muslims did not;
* Christians could not proselytize -- Muslims could;
* Christians and Jews had to bow to their Muslim masters when they paid their taxes; and
* Christians and Jews had to live under the law set forth in the Koran, not under either their own religious or secular law.

In approximately 750, the Caliph destroyed the walls of Jerusalem, leaving it defenseless (they were later rebuilt, in time to defend against the Crusaders). The history of the following three hundred years is too complex and too tangled to describe in a single paragraph. Jerusalem and its Christian and Jewish majority suffered greatly during alternating periods of peace and war. Among the happenings were repeated Muslim destruction of the countryside of Israel (970-983, and 1024-1077) of Jerusalem; the wholesale destruction by the Muslims of Christian churches -- sometimes at the direct order of the Caliph, as in 1003, and sometimes by Muslim mobs; the total destruction of Jerusalem by the Caliph of Cairo in the early 1020s; building small mosques on the top of Christian churches; enforcing the Muslim laws limiting the height of Christian churches; attacking and robbing Christian pilgrims from Europe; attacking Christian processions in the streets of Jerusalem; etc.

christians and jews had to bow? lol, can you get me an authentic source of that, muslims dont bow to each other, nor to respected figures, so can you plz get an authentic source for that, because that has nothing to do with Islam.

I cant give you a source to this because i heard this from my teacher in highschool during lessons about early middle ages.

There is no point arguing who was worse. It was a brutal time in the world. The real issue is that the Crusades do not play a role in the attitutes or beliefs of Europeans or Americans in the vast majority of cases. It is a page from a history book.

Let me give you an advice. Don't do that. Your teacher could be enforcing his/her own speculations and prejudice. And at that, without source. In a court of law your evidence can be thrown out 120 seconds flat.
