Note to players: Description acceptable. These people are predicted to fall for 40 years after being made to stand for 50,000 years. Another passage states that these people “stick their fingers in their ears at the sound of every thunder-clap.” An ethnic slur from South Africa originates from the “K-word” that describes this religious group. A command to “kill, capture, and besiege” these people “once the Sacred Months have passed” appears in the (*) Sword Verse. The world was filled by only these people during the Age of Ignorance, which ended in the year 610 AD. These people and “hypocrites” are attacked in “The Cow” surah. Revolutionary Salafism calls for attacks on these people, who have historically been subject to the jizya tax. For 10 points, describe these people who reject a religion founded by the prophet Muhammad. ■END■
ANSWER: nonbelievers of Islam [accept murtadd; accept Kafir; accept unbelievers or rejectors or infidels or pagans or polytheists or apostasy or other descriptions in place of “nonbelievers”; accept Shias or Sunnis, or Muslims in place of “Islam”; prompt on answers without “Islam” with “according to what faith?”]
