Of course Jews are a race. You can spot them by their racial features.

Thankfully most Muslims aren't this stupid.

Confidently saying the dumbest things. If Jews weren't also a race the whole Hitler situation would not make sense. You look at a trans you know he's a trans by his features, you look at a Jew you can tell by his big nose and beady eyes. They look a particular way, just look at Adam Sandler - textbook Jew. Only a complete moron would deny that Jews are a race.

Using another example, the French are not a race even if there is a French race. So for example, someone of French descent who grew up in America and is culturally American is racially French but is not French but rather American. And someone of some other descent who grew up in France and is culturally French is French but is not racially French. The examples I gave in my initial post should have made this distinction clear. So being racially Jewish isn't the same as being a Jew.

Most Muslims understand this because of the many converts from Judaism to Islam. For example Abdullah ibn Salam and Muhammad's wife Safiyya bint Huyayy. These people not only left Judaism but also left the Jewish community and became members of the Muslim community. So even though they were still racially Jewish, they were no longer Jews.

He is a wahabist, its useless talking sense to him

You are right.

Jew has two meanings one refers to a believer of Judaism and the other refers to the race. Nationality isn't a race and you can't tell someone is French by merely looking at them. If you believe the Jews are not a race despite their obvious distinct looks (unless mixed) then you might as well believe trans women are women. According to your logic all the much less than 6 million Jews could have avoided dying if they only said "I give up I'm a Christian now". We know Hitler targeted them based on race. This is just common sense.

A Jew who converts to Islam is a Muslim, and is now our brother/sister, but as a race they are Banu Israel. The tribe of Israel. You don't change your race.
