Original Note:
The Islamic faith was not established by 567 so couldn't be a 'muslim massacre'. In that year a purging of Jewish residents was ordered by an Arab Christian. In 628, Muslim forces battled with Jewish inhabitants and won. Though 'massacre' isn't a usual description of the event. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Khaybar
