... and this statement differs how from Crusader texts? To quote from Christain Crusader texts as a source decrying the use of violence within Islam is profoundly hypocritical - or do you believe that the Crusaders didn't adovacate violence, forced conversions, wholesale slaughter of populations, destruction of all non-Christian sites... and in the case of some: desicatration of dead, rape, and even canabalism as valid tactics?
