The ‘no compulsion in religion’ lie: by Circe

Part A : Historical context

What does this much ‘quoted in part’ sura 2.256 really mean?    Well, not islamic tolerance/equality of others that’sBhai Taru Singh for sure!  Strangely, muslims don’t mention that the sura has been completely over-ruled – abrogated according to islam’s LAW of ABROGATION - by later, violently intolerant text (part B)! 

The Koran lacks context or chronological order.    A supposed (I think fake) historical context  and ‘order’ is found in Ibn Hisham’s (early 9th century) version of Ibn Ishaq’s Sirat Rasul Allah - the first biography of mohammad (‘lost’),  written around 750 (mohammad died in 632!).   The claimed historical context is actually irrelevant because koranic text applies forever but knowledge of the ‘order’ is critical to know which text is ignored and which over-rules!
