Koraani,2/256: "Uskonnossa ei ole mitään pakkoa,"
http://edu.vantaa.fi/vasamanet/sisalto/historia123/lahikriisit1.htm
"Turkin ottomaanit olivat muslimeja. Vaikka sulttaani oli Muhamedin laillinen seuraaja, hän ei pakottanut ei-islamilaisia islaminlakiin. Ottomaanit sallivat kristittyjen, juutalaisten ja muihin uskontoihin kuuluvien harjoittaa uskoansa rauhassa. Arabit, persialaiset, kurdit ja armenialaiset säilyttivät oman kulttuurinsa ottomaanien valtakunnassa."
A HISTORY PREDATING 1492
The history of the Jews in Anatolia started many centuries before the migration of Sephardic Jews. Remnants of Jewish settlement from the 4th century B.C. have been uncovered in the Aegean region. The historian Josephus Flavius relates that Aristotle "met Jewish people with whom he had an exchange of views during his trip across Asia Minor."
Ancient synagogue ruins have been found in Sardis, near Izmir, dating from 220 B.C. and traces of other Jewish settlements have been discovered near Bursa, in the southeast and along the Aegean, Mediterranean and Black Sea coasts. A bronze column found in Ankara confirms the rights the Emperor Augustus accorded the Jews of Asia Minor.
Jewish comunities in Anatolia flourished and continued to prosper through the Turkish conquest. When the Ottomans captured Bursa in 1324 and made it their capital, they found a Jewish community oppressed under Byzantine rule. The Jews welcomed the Ottomans as saviors. Sultan Orhan gave them permission to build the Etz ha-Hayyim (Tree of Life) synagogue which remained in service until 50 years ago.
Early in the 14th century, when the Ottomans had established their capital at Edirne, Jews from Europe, including Karaites, migrated there. (1) Similarly, Jews expelled from Hungary in 1376, from France by Charles VI in September 1394, and from Sicily early in the 15th century found refuge in the Ottoman Empire. In the 1420s, Jews from Salonika then under Venetian control fled to Edirne. (2)
Ottoman rule was much kinder than Byzantine rule had been. In fact, from the early 15th century on, the Ottomans actively encouraged Jewish immigration. A letter sent by Rabbi Yitzhak Sarfati (from Edirne) to Jewish communities in Europe in the first part of the century "invited his coreligionists to lease the torments they were enduring in Christiandom and to seek safety and prosperity in Turkey". (3)
When Mehmet II "the Conqueror" took Constantinople in 1453, he encountered an oppressed Romaniot (Byzantine) Jewish community which welcomed him with enthousiasm. Sultan Mehmet II issued a proclamation to all Jews "... to ascend the site of the Imperial Throne, to dwell in the best of the land, each beneath his Dine and his fig tree, with silver and with gold, with wealth and with cattle...". (4)
In 1470, Jews expelled from Bavaria by Ludvig X found refuge in the Ottoman Empire.(5)

A HAVEN FOR SEPHARDIC JEWS
Sultan Bayazid II's offer of refuge gave new hope to the persecuted Sephardim. In 1492, the Sultan ordered the governors of the provinces of the Ottoman Empire "not to refuse the Jews entry or cause them difficulties, but to receive them cordially";. (6) According to Bernard Lewis, "the Jews were not just permitted to settle in the Ottoman lands, but were encouranged, assisted and sometimes even compelled".
Immanual Aboab attributes to Bayazid II the famous remark that "the Catholic monarch Ferdinand was wrongly considered as wise, since he impoverished Spain by the expulsion of the Jews, and enriched Turkey". (7)
The arrival of the Sephardis altered the structure of the community and the original group of Romaniote Jews was totally absorbed.
Over the centuries an increasing number of European Jews, escaping persecution in their native countries, settled in the Ottoman Empire. In 1537 the Jews expelled from Apulia (Italy) after the city fell under Papal control, in 1542 those expelled from Bohemia by King Ferdinand found a safe haven in the Ottoman Empire.(8) In March of 1556, Sultan Suleyman "the Magnificent" wrote a letter to Pope Paul IV asking for the immediate release of the Ancona Marranos, which he declared to be Ottoman citizens. The Pope had no other alternative than to release them, the Ottoman Empire being the "Super Power" of those days.
By 1477, Jewish households in Istanbul numbered 1647 or 11% of the total. Half a century later, 8070 Jewish houses were listed in the city.

Koraani, 7/179: "Heillä on sydämet, joilla he eivät ymmärrä, heillä on silmät, joilla he eivät näe, ja heillä on korvat, joilla he eivät kuule; he ovat karjan kaltaisia, ei, he kulkevat vielä pahemmin harhaan; he ovat välinpitämättömiä."
Koraani,2/256 : "Uskonnossa ei ole mitään pakkoa, oikea tie on selvästi erotettu harhateistä, ja se, joka hylkää saatanan ja uskoo Jumalaan, hän pitää kiinni mitä lujimmasta kädensijasta, joka ei murru. Jumalahan on kuuleva, tietävä."
Koraani, 2/62: ” (Koraaniin) uskovat ja myöskin ne jotka ovat juutalaisia, kristittyjä, saabalaisia, jos he uskovat Jumalaan ja Viimeiseen päivään ja elävät hurskaasti, saavat totisesti palkkansa Herransa luona; ei mikään pelko valtaa heitä, eikä heidän tarvitse murehtia
