o, you're confused. Firstly you're referring to two separate surahs - 9 and 5, not surah 9 ayat 5.
No, I was referring to Surah 9 verse 5, which states:
"And when the sacred months have passed, then kill the polytheists wherever you find them and capture them and besiege them and sit in wait for them at every place of ambush. But if they should repent, establish prayer, and give zakah, let them [go] on their way. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful."

Secondly, surah 9 deals only with the polytheists, not the christians or jews.
So, murdering polytheists is acceptable then, is it?
