There are no records of the numbers of European Jews who were exterminated in the Nazi camp system - worked to death, liquidated, dead of disease, dead of exposure, dead of brutality, dead by mischance - whatever.
How do we know that about six million died? Because when the war was over they did not find their way home or into displaced persons camps. The war swallowed them up.
If there were any banu Qurayzah alive after the time of Muhammed, why did none of them return home? Why do they cease to appear in any records or myth?
Because they are gone.
Please note this was a clan or sept of Arabian Jews, and the whole numbers we are discussing are probably no more than a hundred or two hundred. They are just a blip on the record of the past. But tribes of the time were small.
Regards,
Scott

I never said Banu Qurayzah were still around.
But Scott said they were definitely gone.
All I said is that he doesn't have a basis for saying that.
In a situation like that, the best thing is to say we don't know.
That's all I'm trying to get across.
Peace
Gilberto
