Again, this condition would be expected from an invading army.

Non-Muslims are considered ''najis'' (نجس‎ impure) like dogs, pigs, and faeces,<ref>(Asad) "O YOU who have attained to faith! Those who ascribe divinity to aught beside God are nothing but impure: and so they shall not approach the Inviolable House of Worship from this year onwards And should you fear poverty, then [know that] in time God will enrich you out of His bounty, if He so wills: for, verily, God is all-knowing, wise!" - Qur’an 9:28</ref><ref>The following ten things are essentially najis [impure, unclean]: 1. Urine 2. Faeces 3. Semen 4. Dead body 5. Blood 6. Dog 7. Pig 8. Kafir [unbeliever] 9. Alcoholic liquors 10. The sweat of an animal who persistently eats najasat - [http://web.archive.org/web/20100119121959/http://www.sistani.org/local.php?modules=nav&nid=2&bid=59&pid=2857 <!-- http://www.webcitation.org/query?url=http%3A%2F%2Fweb.archive.org%2Fweb%2F20100119121959%2Fhttp%3A%2F%2Fwww.sistani.org%2Flocal.php%3Fmodules%3Dnav%26nid%3D2%26bid%3D59%26pid%3D2857&date=2012-01-25 -->Islamic Laws : Najis things » Introduction] - Al-Sistani.org, Internet Archive capture dated January 19, 2010</ref><ref>“...And, that they [the dhimmis] should not enter the pool while a Muslim is bathing at the public baths. ...It is also incumbent upon Muslims that they should not accept from them victuals with which they had come into contact, such as distillates, which cannot be purified. If something can be purified, such as clothes, if they are dry, they can be accepted, they are clean. But if they [the dhimmis] had come into contact with those clothes in moisture they should be rinsed with water after being obtained. ...It would also be better if the ruler of the Muslims would establish that all infidels could not move out of their homes on days when it rains or snows because they would make Muslims impure...” - Muhammad Baqir Majlesi (1616 – 1698 AD) - Lightning Bolts Against the Jews</ref> so this stipulation is hardly surprising. Also recorded in the [[sahih]] [[hadiths]], is the command to not let the [[Qur'an]] fall into enemy hands, as they may "quarrel with you over it."<ref>"''It has been narrated on the authority of Ibn 'Umar that the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: Do not take the Qur'an on a journey with you, for I am afraid lost it should fall into the hands of the enemy. Ayyub (one of the narrators in the chain of transmitters) said: The enemy may seize it and may quarrel with you over it.''" - {{Muslim|20|4609}}</ref> Apparently early Muslims were afraid of non-Muslims scrutinizing their holy book.
