It has come to my attention that Mohammed once had a Jewish Wife, who he called "the most beautiful thing he'd ever see." I hate Jews, so let me get to the predicament and point.
I have been a Muslim now for 2 months and I was happy until this point. I thought it was nice because of the low amount of Jewish adherents in Islam. I have been a Sufi and have been praying about five times a day most days. It will be hard to continue knowing that the Prophet married a Jew and thus brought Jewish influence into Islam.
I might continue with Islam if someone can explain things to me, but I can no longer respect the Prophet.
Salam brother. I am generally skeptical with such kind of quotes attributed to Rasulullah a.s. However, it is true that he married to a jewish woman. What you need to learn something about Islam is there is no place for any kind of racism or hatred to adherents of the followers of a religion in Islam. Quran warns us to be careful about our interactions with the adherents of other religions but tells us to be kind to them and especially to be wise to jews and christians.
Also, sufi Islam is a very peaceful understanding of Islam. I wonder how can you be a sufi and hate jews at the same time..
Brother, I do not understand the hostility and enmity you have with the Jewish religion. Our history with them hasn't been particularly friendly but you can't paint them all with one big black brush. They are People of the Book and we are taught to respect them as well as Christians. Racism or hatred has no place in Islam.
While I do not know which hadith you have quoted from, the Prophet (PBUH) did marry two Jewish women Juwayriyya bint al-Harith (ra) and Safiyyah bint Huyayy (ra), who actually did convert to Islam. Their backgrounds do not matter as they became Muslim and among the Mothers of the Believers. Actually when Safiyyah was taunted for her Jewish heritage the Prophet (pbuh) supported her and defended her.
I don't see why this would make you think that way or the point of making this statement. The tolerance and respect of the Prophet (pbuh) for other religions made me love and respect him even more.

yes, we might have had a bad history with Jews, that doesn't mean we paint all jews with the same brush.
It'd be no difference from what many people do to us muslims, ie. label us all terrorists because of some extremists.
Should we all remind Germans of how bad they are, of their nazi regime and history? no, why? Because the todays germans has no accountability for the nazis.. It is like blaming a child for what their grandfather did to them...........
To each man, their own deed.
And may Allah forgive me if I said anything wrong. Ameen.
