+dvancing the faith is a matte! of e#panding 6a! al,Islam y !inging new lands and people unde! Islamic domination. In Surah 3r?>a@d 13.11, +llah p!omises to give the land to -uslims th!ough conquests. In Surah 3t?!au-ah .33, he decla!es the pu!pose of making Islam dominant. 13:11. *ee they not that <e g!adually !educe the land /of dis elieve!s, y giving it to the elieve!s, in wa! victo!ies0 f!om its outlying o!de!s. +nd +ll2h )udges, the!e is none to put ack His Judgement and He is *wift at !eckoning.

.age '1K gives us a vital hint of the me!cena!y motivation of Islam. 'age 111 testifies against the inte!est of Islam y e#posing intent to p!o)ect a false pe!ception of its motivation. They want thei! victims to pe!ceive that they a!e eing attacked fo! the sake of !eligion, not fo! plunde!. +nd, if the p!ey accept the false p!emise, they may capitulate without a fight.

'age &13 displays the me!cena!y mission of Islam to the disce!ning eye. This e#ce!pt clea!ly shows us that the p!ope!ty, widows and o!phans of attack victims a!e plunde! fo! thei! -uslim attacke!s.
