Saudi Arabia is a kingdom and it is corrupt. Once again you are equating the corrupt practices of some people to an entire religion held by a billion living persons and perhaps trillions who have passed on. Why? Is it because you are a biggot? Or is it because you are ignorant? It is not because the religion is at fault as you claim...

The Quran:

“O mankind! We created
You from a single (pair)
Of a male and a female,
And made you into
Nations and tribes, that
Ye may know each other
(Not that ye may despise
Each other). Verily,
The most honored of you
In the sight of God
Is (he who is) the most
Righteous of you.
And God has full knowledge
And is well acquainted
(With all things).” [49:13]

“Say ye: ‘We believe
In God, and the revelation
Given to us, and to Abraham,
smail, Isaac, Jacob,
And the Tribes, and that given
To Moses and Jesus, and that given
To (all) Prophets from their Lord:
We make no difference
Between one and another of them:
And we bow to God in Islam.’” [2:136]

“Let there be no compulsion
In religion: Truth stands out
Clear from Error: Whoever
Rejects Evil and believes
In God hath grasped
The most trustworthy
Hand-hold, that never breaks.
And God heareth
And knoweth all things. [2:256]

The Qur’an is filled with verses that urge Muslims to practice tolerance toward non-Muslims. More than that, the Divine Knowledge of the Qur’an embodies principles which are useful to every individual, Muslim and non-Muslim, in developing human relations which can manage human differences and calm religious intolerance in a pluralistic society.

That there are corrupt individuals on the Earth is no surprise...nor is it a surprise to me that you would use their deeds for your own corrupt purposes.
