Hume On Muslims

From  Hume’s “Of Refinement in the Arts” (Green and Grose, Hume’s Philosophical Works, 3:302)

“I believe every man would think his life or fortune much less secure in the hands of a MOOR or TARTAR, than in those of a FRENCH or ENGLISH gentleman.”

Have the Qur’an and Sunnah, and the attitudes and atmospherics of Islam naturally engendered by them, changed since then?
