The reader should understand that among the laws of the Mahomedans is one, that to all questions about religion put to them by Christians they should answer by the sword. This rule is followed most rigorously in Turkey, Arabia, in the realm of the Mogul, also in Balq (Balkh), Bocara (Bukhara), among the Osbeques (Uzbaks) and Patanis (Pathans). Thus it is impossible for anyone to utter a word there against the Mahomedan superstition without the chance of losing his head. But in Persia you may use arguments, make inquiry, and give answer in matters of religion without the least danger. - [Previous: 39.1.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.39.1.2) - [Next: 39.1.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.39.1.4) - [Up: 39.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.39.1) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.39.1.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.39.1.3) · Pramāṇa
