Jew had the worse treatment under the Vatican, but it was gone when chaliphate rule over spain and Jarusalem. So if Muslim culture dominate it will not bring any harm to other culture.

the caliphates from back then were progressive, secular, multicultural and respected religious freedom - the total opposite of the so called "caliphates" radicals want to install these days

Actually the same principals is still the same, (bringing the Syariah law) but the way current faction  do is different nowdays, at least the terorisme is the wrong way to achieve it.

caliphate never promote secularisme for "Muslim" but they given the freedom for other religion living under their culture, and yes they were multy culture and respected other religious movement.


Well, technically speaking, people of other faiths weren't given the freedom to practice as they saw fit, they had to pay a tax for it, dhimma I believe it was called?  Still, it was certainly far more progressive than most relations back in the day.
