- Islam
is the religion of all prophets. Muslims believe that all
prophets were sent to people from God (Allah).
They had the same mission and message: guiding people to
the right path.
-
- The three major
religions, Islam, Christianity, and
Judaism, go back to Abraham. The prophets
of these religions were directly descended from him,
Moses and Jesus from Isaac, but
Muhammad from Ismail. Prophet
Abraham established the settlement which today is
the city of Makkah, and built the Ka'bah
towards which Muslims all over the world face when they
pray.
-
- The Holy
Qur'an portrays of a good Christian:
-
- And nearest among
them in love to the believers wilt thou find those who
say: 'We are Christians': because among these are men
devoted to learning and men who have renounced the world.
And they are not arrogant."
- (Qur'an
5:82)
-
- Muslims believe, that
Jesus was one of the mightiest messengers of
God that he was the Christ, that he was
born miraculously without any male intervention (which
many modern-day Christians do not believe today),
that he gave life to the dead by God's permission and
that he healed those born blind and the lepers by god's
permission. In fact, no Muslim is a Muslim if he or she
does not believe in Jesus!"
-
- in the Holy Qur'an
Jesus is mentioned twenty five times. For
example:
-
- "We
gave Jesus, the son of Mary, clear signs and strengthened
him with the Holy Spirit"
- (Qur'an
2:87)
-
- "O
Mary! God giveth thee glad tidings of a Word from Him:
his name will be Christ Jesus, the son of
Mary.
- (Qur'an,
3:45)
- Christ Jesus
the son of Mary was (no more than) an apostle of
god.
- (Qur'an,
4:171)
-
- And
in their foot steps we sent Jesus the son of
Mary.
- (Qur'an,
5:46)
-
- And Zakariya and
John, and Jesus and Elias: all in the ranks of the
righteous.
- (Qur'an,
6:85)
-
-
- There is a Chapter in
the Holy Qur'an, named Surat Maryam
"Chapter Mary", named in honour of Mary the
mother of Jesus Christ, peace and blessings of
Allah be upon him;
-
- "'Behold'! the
angels said: 'O
Mary! God hath chosen thee and purified thee, and chosen
thee above the women of all
nationsÝ
- (Qur'an,
3:42)
-
- "Chosen thee above
the women of all nations." Such an honour is not to
be found given to Mary even in the Christian
Bible! The verse continues:
-
- "O
Mary! Worship thy Lord devoutly: prostrate thyself, and
bow down (in prayer) with those who bow
down.
- (Qur'an,
3:43)
-
-
- If Muhammad
(peace and blessings of Allah be upon him was the
author of the Holy Qur'an, then he would not have
failed to include in it with Mary, the mother of
Jesus, his own mother Aamina, his dear wife
Khadija, or his beloved daughter Fatima.
But No! This can never be. The Qur'an is not his
handiwork!.
