Of course there has been animosity, which has been the norm for minorities throughout history, but not 'war' as was previously stated by someone here. Jews have gotten a bad rap from almost every culture in history, but before the creation of Israel Jews were better off in Arab countries than Christian European ones.
Also, I'd trust the Jewish Library about as much as I'd trust the Muslim Library.
