Peace Eximan,

I don't quite understand the question. If you don't mind clarifying... Are you asking about Israelites currently?.. in the world today?.. Or during the time of quran revelation, or after the time of moses, but before muhammad?

Thanks and welcome to the board. )

Peace.

I am asking about Israelites mentioned in those verses. They were under Prophet Moses and held responsible for killing other prophets. Since their prophet was Moses, they can't (Didn't) kill any prophets. Still poverty and disgrace imposed upon them by their God. (I hope you have absorbed my accusation of Qur'an being contradictory here.)

Hello Friends,
lol
I am new to this forum. However I have gone through several posts. I find some intelligent folks around. So, I raise a question in hope you may please answer.

Qur'an says to Israelites
"Those are a people who have passed away. Theirs is that which they earned, and yours is that which ye earn. And ye will not be asked of what they used to do." Chapter 2/ 134.

Yet we see Israelites are being punished for what they haven't done.

"And humiliation and wretchedness were stamped upon them and they were visited with wrath from Allah. That was because they disbelieved in Allah's revelations and slew the prophets wrongfully. That was for their disobedience and transgression. " Chapter 2/61

That was because .......and slew the prophets wrongfully" Qur'an here speaks of those Israelites under Prophet Moses. They haven't killed any prophets, but their ancestors might have done so. But why did Allah hold them responsible and impose humiliation and wretchedness upon them? Doesn't Allah being contradictory here? ?
Eximan.
