A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF ISLAM AND BIBLICAL CHRISTIANITY
Islam is the second largest religion in the world, next to Roman Catholicism. Islam will have will gain massive worldwide expansion and will play as the chief antagonists against Israel during the Tribulation after the Rapture of the Church Age believers. Islam claimed that Allah is the same God who was revealed in the Bible, is incorrect. The Word “Allah” was not invented or revealed for the first time in the Quran but was well known long time before Muhammad was born.[1]Allah was already well known in the pre- Islamic Arabia. Allah is a pure Arabic word from a compound word al-ilah. The “al” is the definite article “the” and “ilah” is an Arabic word for god. [2]Allah is the moon god married to sun- goddess. Allah has three daughters: Al-lat, al-Uzza, and manta. Allah is not from Allelujah, because Allelujah is not a compound word, but a single word which means “Praise to Yahweh.” Allah is pure Arabic not Hebrew.[3] Allah, the moon god, came from the Arabian astral religions. The symbol of the worship of the moon god in the 6th and 7th Arabian culture was the crescent moon.[4] Allah is merely a revamped and magnified Arabian moon deity.[5] Let’s make a brief survey of the essential differences between the Allah of the Quran and the biblical God. 1) Knowable vs. Unknowable The Bible reveals God, and Jesus Christ came into this world that we might know God. (John 17:3). Man can come into a personal relationship with God. (John 1:12-13). In the Quran, Allah is so transcendent and exalted that no man can ever personally know him. Allah is so distant, so far off, and so abstract, that no man could know him. 2) Personal vs. Non-personal The God of the Bible is spoken of as a personal being with infinite intellect, infinite wisdom, emotion, will. Allah is not to be understood as a person, this would put him lower that the level of man, which is beast. 3) Spiritual vs. Non-spiritual “God is Spirit,” is the cornerstones of His Attributes. (John 4:24) According to Muslim Theology, [6] the idea that Allah is a person or a spirit is blasphemous because it would demean or degrade the “exalted one.” 4) Trinity vs. Unitarian The God of the Bible is one God in three persons; this Trinity is not three gods but one God. The Father is God, (Rom. 1:17). The Son is God, (Heb.1:8). The Holy Spirit is God (acts 5:3-4). The Father is all the fulness of the Godhead invisible (John 1:18). The Son is all the fulness manifested, (John 1:14-18). The Spirit is all the fullness of the Godhead manifested upon the creature, (1 Cor. 2:10). The Quran say that God is not a Father, and Jesus is not the Son of God of God. Neither is the Holy Spirit to be viewed as God. 5) Limited vs. Unlimited The Biblical God is limited by His own immutable and unalterable nature. Thus cannot do anything and everything He wants. For example, God is Holy, and therefore He can not lie (Titus 1:2). He will never act in such a way that it will contradict His divine nature. (2 Tim. 2:13). The Allah of the Quran is not limited by anything. He is not even limited by his own nature. Allah can do anything anytime, anyplace, anywhere with no limitations. 6) Trustworthy vs. Capricious The God of the Bible is limited by His own Righteousness and Holiness and there are certain things He can not do for He is completely consistent and trustworthy. The Action f Allah in Quran is totally capricious, mutable and trustworthy. Allah is not bound by his nature or by his word. The mind of Allah is temperamental. 7) Love vs. No Love God is Love, and Love is His primary attribute. He loves righteousness that He even gave His Son to purchase the righteousness which man can not have by their power, resources or ability. God revealed Himself as Love. (John 3:16). The chief attribute of Allah is transcendence. Allah does not have “feelings” towards men. The “love of Allah” is foreign to Muslims and blasphemous to Allah. Love is just another word for sex to the Muslims. 8) Active in History vs. Non- active God is active in history, in which God himself enters History though Incarnation and acts to bring about man’s Salvation. He has perfect knowledge of all that transpire in human history. (Ex. Is Exodus 3:7) According to Islamic theology, Allah does not personally enter into human history and he is not a historical agent for Allah deals with the world through his Quran, angels, prophets and genies. 9) Attribute vs. No Attribute The Bible gives us the attribute of God: Omnipotence, Omniscience, Omnipresence, God is Holy, God is Righteous, God is Just, God is Just, God is Sovereign, God is Love, Veracity, and Immutability, God is Eternal. The Quran tells us in negative way that Allah is not in terms of his nature. The so-called “ninety nine” (99) attributes of Allah are all in negative form signifying what Allah is not but never telling what Allah is. 10) Grace vs. Works The Bible speaks much about the grace of God in providing a free salvation for man through a Savior who acts as an intercessor between God and man. (1 Tim. 2:5) The Quran has no concept of grace of Allah. There is no Savior or intercessor. The divine plan of grace is unknown to the Quran.
The God of the Bible and the god of the Quran are two different personality with no point of similarities. Every muslim professes to believe in Jesus. The Jesus (Isa) of the Quran is only one of the 124,000 prophets of Islam. according to the Quran, Isa was sent only to the Jews, He was not the Son of God, born to the virgin Mary whose father was the angel Gabriel. The Quran denies the deity of Christ and His atoning death. The muslin do not accept Christ as the Sayyidna al Fudi (Our Lord the Redeemer) or Sayyidna al Masih (Our Lord Christ). 11) Conversion To repeat the words "La illaha illa Allah, wa Mohammed Rasul Allah" ("I witness that there is no God but Allah, and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah) is to become a Muslim. Although this "witness" should be recited with conviction, the Muslims will rejoice to if they can even pursuade a non-Muslim to merely say this statement. Anyone who is converted to Genuine Christianity is a person who:
The cult of moon god which worshipped Allah was transformed by Muhammad into a monotheistic faith. Allah is not Biblical word; it is not Hebrew or Greek but Arabic word. Allah is not from Allelujah, Allah is not from Eli. It’s impossible for the writers of Bible to confuse Allah because they wrote long time ago before Muhammad was born. Up until the 7th century, Allah was the name of an obscure pagan deity, when Muhammad made Allah into the “only” God. Allah can not be another name for God. Islam claims that both Muhammad and Jesus of Nazareth were both Muslims and both prophets were sent by Allah. Thus both of them must coincide in all points and never contradict each other. It is only logical to assume that their messages, ministries and even life can not in principle contradict each other. Otherwise, Allah would be contradicting himself! It would be highly instructive to make a comparative outline of the life of Muhammad to the life of Jesus. Let us restrict ourselves to the founding documents; the life of Jesus will be drawn from the Bible and the life of Muhammad from Quran. Prophecy The birth, life, death, resurrection, ascension of Jesus was clearly prophesied in the Old Testament. On the very day Jesus died, not less than 33 prophecies were fulfilled. Muhammad coming was not predicted by pagan soothsayers, or by any Old or New Testament prophets or apostles. Births The birth of Jesus was miraculous because He was conceived by the Holy Spirit in the womb of a virgin girl. Muhammad was the natural product of the sexual union of his father and mother. Sinlessness Jesus lived a perfect and sinless life, (2 Cor. 5:12). His enemies have to invent charges because no one could find anything against Him. Muhammad was a normal human being fully engaged in the same sins which afflict all of us. He lied, he cheated, he lusted, he failed to keep his word, etc. In Sura 18:110, he was commanded by Allah, “Say I am but a man like yourselves.” In Sura 40:55 Allah told Muhammad “Ask forgiveness of thy sins.” Miracles Jesus did many mighty miracles: He healed the sick; He raised the dead, cast out demons. He ruled the wind and waves. He fed four thousand and five thousand. There are many places in Quran as in Sura 17:91-95 which clearly point out that Muhammad did no miracle. Love Jesus was the greatest manifestation of Love, and He was the greatest example of God’s love. (John 3:16). There is no record in Quran that Muhammad mentioned anything about love of Allah. Allah’s love for man or man’s love for Allah has no significant role in the preaching of their prophet Muhammad. They can not point to anything that reveals the love of Allah. Human and Divine Nature Jesus was unique in that He was Divine as welll as human. This is why Jesus is called God in John 1:1, 18, John 20:28, Acts 20:28, Romans 5:9, Titus 2:13, 2 peter 2:1, etc. Muhammad was only a man. On Beauty of Speech Jesus was the greatest speaker that ever lived; even His enemies had to confess that no man ever spoke as He spoke. He is the greatest teacher as well. The speeches of Muhammad are ecstatically confusing, and there nothing outstanding, there is no beauty or substance, but only disorganized thoughts of a mentally subnormal man. A High Moral example The way Jesus lived and the way He was willing to die for sinners, gave us a high moral example to follow. Muhammad was involved in many acts which must be deemed as immoral and unjust. Killing and Robbing Jesus never killed or rubbed anybody. If He had done so, this surely would have been brought up during His trial.
Coercion Jesus never used physical violence to force people to believe His message or to accept Him as the Messiah. (Matthew 26:51-54). Allah commanded Muhammad to punish or kill those who refuse or resist Islam. (Sura 9:5, Sura 5:33). Directing Disciples to Kill Jesus never instructed His followers by way of command, example, or precept to kill in His name, to rob in His name, or to subdue His enemies in His name. Muhammad taught his disciples by example, by command and precept that they could and should kill, rob, destroy in the name of Allah, and force people to submit to Islam. Coveting another man’s Wife Jesus did not take any man’s wife. He had only four wives in Quran but had twenty two wives yet two of his wives in Quran were wives of another man. One was wife of his adopted son whom he killed, and another was wife of his servant. Child Abuse Jesus can not be described as child molester or who was sexually involved with young children. Muhammad took an eight years old child to be his wife, and he was involved with many women, wives, concubines, even devotees and slaves.[7] Unclean Foods Jesus relinquished Jewish dietary laws for His followers and made all food clean. (Mark 7:14-23). Muhammad enforced the 7th century pagan dietary laws and brought it within the context of Islamic Laws. Death Jesus died for the sins of His people in order to deliver them from wrath of God. (1 Corinthians 15:3-4). He death on a cross is unique. Muhammad died for his own sins. Resurrection Jesus did not remained dead but conquered death, hell, sin, and rose again on the third day for the justification of His children. Muhammad died a mysterious death in AD 632 and remained dead, while Jesus is alive forever more. Ascension Jesus ascended bodily into heaven which was witness by the disciples in Acts 1:9-11. The Quran did not say that Muhammad ascended to heaven for he remained dead. Heavenly Intercession Jesus is now in heaven as our intercessor, and Savior, the only Mediator between man and God. Muhammad is not an intercessor or a savior. The Quran clearly states that there is no intercessor or Savior, (Sura 6:51, 70, 10:3, etc). You have to save yourself, for Allah is not a Savior. Worship Jesus was worship as a Living Savior. (John 20:28). The Quran never speaks of worshipping Muhammad for he is just a man. Personal Relationship Man can have personal relationship with Jesus as He enters into their hearts through the Spirit at conversion. There is no possible relationship with Muhammad for he is dead. Returning to Earth Jesus will return to resurrect and judge all men. Even the orthodox Muslims will often admit that this is clearly true. The Quran says that Jesus will return to earth to reign for 40 years which is contrary to biblical doctrine of 1000 years of millenial reign. There is no teaching in the Quran that says Muhammad will return one day or that he will resurrect or judge anyone for he will remained dead until Jesus judge him to the lake of fire.
To any rational mind who examinees the differences between the biblical Jesus and the quranic Muhammad, it is obvious that they are not either from Allah or from God. They did not live or preach like each other, from the minute to the most essential issues they were pole apart. There is only One True God, and definitely that God can not be Allah- the moon god. J. R. Cherreguine Bible Doctrine Minstries
THE MOON GOD RELIGION Islam is not a word invented by Muhammad or revealed by Allah from heaven. It is originally an Arabic word which refers to the attribute of manliness, that one has to be heroic and brave in the battle even unto death. A secular concept, denoting a sublime virtue in the eyes of the primitive Arab, defiance, death, heroism, to die in the battle[8] How could Islam meant submission to the word of God? Muhammad was raised in the Quraysh tribe, who were known for moon god cult, Allah. Muhammads father was named Abdullah (lit. Abd-Allah). And his uncle Obeidullah, (lit. Obeid-Allah) proves not only the used of the name Allah but those they were deeply involved with the cult. Muhammad took the 7th century political laws and religious laws of the moon god cult and made them laws of Allah. Islamic laws recognize no civil rights of any individual, for the Quran is above the law. Muslims are required to pray five times a day, the quranic iterate and illiterate prayer toward Mecca. Muslims are required to make a pilgrimage to Mecca, Saudi Arabia once in his life time. Mecca contained the Kaaba or Kabah in which place the black stone, the object of worship. The Kabah contained 360 representatives of gods.[9] Muslim observes the 7th century Arabian domestic and even dietary laws. Muslim women are mandated to wear the veils of nomadic, illiterate tribeswoman of the 7th century. Muslim women don’t have the status of independent persons and their husband is their “Allah” in the house. There is no separation of the mosque and the state. Their leaders are both political and religious leaders. Incarceration without due process of law is accepted by the Muslim as legal. A mere allegation could mean an instant dead for the accused. Muslim practice and believe in magic, enchantment and they believe in genies as it is written in Quran, (Sura 55:72, 113-114). The Quran has numerous errors, has endless contradictions, and borrowed or copied materials. Islam claims that the Bible is corrupt, but how come the prophet Muhammad copied so many things from the Bible? Quran cannot pass the scientific examination or even critical literary examination. The Quran claims that it is a continuation of the Bible and it will not contradict itself. (Sura 2:136). We have to remember, that the Bible is much older than the Quran, and both science and history do not contradict the Bible. The older verifies the new, so let’s bring the Quran under examination using the Bible base on the premise that “the Quran is the continuation of the Bible and it do not contradict itself.”
Scientific problems in the Quran Sperm comes from the chest of a man: "Now let man but think from what he is created! He is created from a drop emitted-Proceeding from between the backbone and the ribs," (Quran 86:5-7). This obviously says sperm comes from the chest. The verse refers to a "drop". A drop is separated from a larger body of liquid. Drops are not in the human body, but outside of it. Therefore, the verse is not about testicles, but the semen or sperm mixture that has left the body during sexual intercourse. This is an obvious and blatant error. Gentleman, now please tell me, Is your testicles located in your chest? In Islam, if ONE thing is wrong in the Quran, then Islam is false because the Quran is supposed to be perfect according to Allah, But, since the Quran teaches that sperm comes from a man’s chest (Quran 86:5-7), then this proves that Islam is false. The sun set in murky water: "Until, when he reached the setting of the sun, he found it set in a spring of murky water: Near it he found a People: We said: "O Zul-qarnain! (thou hast authority,) either to punish them, or to treat them with kindness," (Quran 18:86). Birds can talk: "And Solomon was David’s heir. He said: "O ye people! We have been taught the speech of birds, and on us has been bestowed (a little) of all things: this is indeed Grace manifest (from Allah.)" (Quran 27:16). "And Solomon was David’s heir. And he said: O mankind! Lo! we have been taught the language of birds, and have been given (abundance) of all things. This surely is evident favour," (Quran 27:16, Pickthall, trans.). Ants can talk: "At length, when they came to a (lowly) valley of ants, one of the ants said: "O ye ants, get into your habitations, lest Solomon and his hosts crush you (under foot) without knowing it," (Quran 27:18). "Till, when they reached the Valley of the Ants, an ant exclaimed: O ants! Enter your dwellings lest Solomon and his armies crush you, unperceiving," (Quran 27:18, Pickthal, trans.). Shooting stars are for driving away evil spirits: "And we have, (from of old), adorned the lowest heaven with Lamps, and We have made such (Lamps) (as) missiles to drive away the Evil Ones, and have prepared for them the Penalty of the Blazing Fire," (Quran 67:5). That is not what shooting stars are for. They aren’t "for" anything. They are small objects in space burning up in our atmosphere. There are 7 heavens and 7 earths! "Allah is He Who created seven Firmaments and of the earth a similar number. Through the midst of them (all) descends His Command: that ye may know that Allah has power over all things, and that Allah comprehends, all things in (His) Knowledge," (Surah 65:12).
Historical Problems in the Quran The origin of crucifixion: "Pharaoh said: Ye believe in Him before I give you leave! Lo! this is the plot that ye have plotted in the city that ye may drive its people hence. But ye shall come to know! 124 Surely I shall have your hands and feet cut off upon alternate sides. Then I shall crucify you every one," (Quran 7:123-124). Crucifixion was invented by the Phoenicians after 600 B.C. The Egyptians didn’t crucify anyone because it hadn’t been invented yet. Muhammad didn’t get this right when he made up this verse. Virgin Mary is the sister of Aaron and Moses: "Then she brought him to her own folk, carrying him. They said: O Mary! Thou hast come with an amazing thing. 28 O sister of Aaron! Thy father was not a wicked man nor was thy mother a harlot (Quran Mary was not the sister of Aaron. Aaron was Moses’ brother who lived several hundreds of years before Mary. Muhammad misunderstood the Bible very well when he made that verse up. The following statements from the Quran are contradiction from what is written in the Bible. The Quran says that God created the world in eighty days, (Sura 41:9-12). (Six days- Gen. 1:31) The Quran says that only two sons of Noah were saved from the flood, (Sura 11:32-48), and the Ark rested on top of Mt. Judi, (Sura 121:44) (all of the three were saved, the Ark rested on Mt. Arayat). The Quran says that the father of Abraham was Azar. (Suar 6:74), and that Abraham lived in the valley of Mecca, (Sura 14:37), and Abraham sacrificed Ismael, (Sura 37:100-112). Abraham had two sons, and he had two wives. (The father of Abraham was Terah, he had eight sons and three wives, and Isaac was intended for sacrifice). The Quran says that Abraham built that Kabah, (Sura 2:125-127). Abraham lived many centuries before Muhammad, how could the dead Abraham built the Kabah in the 7th century Quran says that Nimrod threw Abraham into a fire (Sura 21:68-69, 9:69) Nimrod lived many centuries before Abraham was born. The Quran says that the man who bought Joseph, the son of Jacob, was Aziz. (Sura 12:21). (Potiphar- Gen. 37:36) The Quran says that Moses was adopted by the wife of Pharaoh’s daughter, (Exodus 2:5). Quran says that the Noah’s flood occurred during the time of Moses. (Sura 7:136, 7:59f). (not so) Quran says that Haman worked for Pharaoh during the time of Moses in building the tower of Babel, (Sura 27:4-6, 28:38, 40:23-24, 36-37). (Haman lived in Persia during the time of Ahaserus). Quran says that crucifixion was used during the time of Moses. (Sura 7:124). Quran says that the father of Mary, the Mother of Jesus was Imram, (Sura 66:12), and Mary gave birth to Jesus under the palm tree. (Sura 19:22) Quran says that Gideon tested his men on their drinking manner from a stream of water after David defeated the giant Goliath. (Sura 2:249-250).
Contradictions in the Quran Can Allah have a son? Yes, according to Quran 39:4, "If Allah desire to take a son to Himself, He will surely choose those He pleases from what He has created. Glory be to Him: He is Allah, the One, the Subduer (of all)," No, according to Quran 6:101, "Wonderful Originator of the heavens and the earth! How could He have a son when He has no consort, and He (Himself) created everything, and He is the Knower of all things," (Quran 6:101). Adam’s Height: Hadith - the deeds and sayings of Muhammad says Adam was made 90 feet tall. Allah made Adam 60 cubits high (generally a cubit was 18 inches. Therefore, Adam was 90 feet tall) The Prophet said, "Allah created Adam, making him 60 cubits tall. (Hadith, Volume 4, Book 55, Number 543, Narrated Abu Huraira.) Muhammad is ordered by Allah to fight all people until they worship Allah. "Allah’s Apostle said: "I have been ordered (by Allah) to fight against the people until they testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah." (Hadith, Vol 1, Book 2, No. 24) Narrated Ibn ‘UmarDon’t pass wind while praying: "Allah’s Apostle said, ‘The angels keep on asking Allah’s forgiveness for anyone of you, as long as he is at his Mu,salla (praying place) and he does not pass wind (Hadath). They say, ‘O Allah! Forgive him, O Allah! be Merciful to him." - (Hadith, Vol. 1, Book 8, No. 436) A man slept through prayer time and the devil peed in his ear: "It was mentioned before the Prophet that there was a man who slept the night till morning (after sunrise). The Prophet said, ‘He is a man in whose ears (or ear) Satan had urinated.’" (Hadith Vol. 4, Book 54, No. 492)
Muhammad Magic worked on Muhammad. How can that be if he is a prophet? "Magic was worked on the Prophet so that he began to fancy that he was doing a thing which he was not actually doing," (Hadith, Vol. 4, Book 54, No. 490). Muhammad was a white man: "While we were sitting with the Prophet in the mosque, a man came riding on a camel. He made his camel kneel down in the mosque, tied its foreleg and then said: "Who amongst you is Muhammad?"…We replied, "This white man reclining on his arm." The an then addressed him, "O Son of ‘Abdul Muttalib." (Hadith Vol. 1, book 3, No. 63) Muhammad owned a black slave: "I came and behold, Allah’s Apostle was staying on a Mashroba (attic room) and a black slave of Allah’s Apostle was at the top if its stairs. I said to him, "(Tell the Prophet) that here is ‘Umar bin Al-Khattab (asking for permission to enter)." Then he admitted me," (Hadith, Vol. 9, Book 91, No. 368). Muhammad had people killed: "Allah’s Apostle entered Muhammad was a sinner: "The Prophet said, "I say, O Allah! Set me apart from my sins (faults) as the East and West are set apart from each other and clean me from sins as a white garment is cleaned of dirt (after thorough washing). O Allah! Wash off my sins with water, snow and hail," (Hadith Vol. 1, Book 12, No. 711).
Jihad - Holy Struggle The Qur’an tells muslims to kill and go to war to fight for Islam: Surah 9:5; 2:191; 2:193; 3:118; 4:75,76; 5:33, 8:12; 8:65; 9:73,123; 33:60-62. Fight for Allah: "And kill them wherever you find them, and drive them out from whence they drove you out, and persecution is severer than slaughter, and do not fight with them at the Sacred Mosque until they fight with you in it, but if they do fight you, then slay them; such is the recompense of the unbelievers, (Quran 2:191). Muslims are to battle for Allah: "Those who believe do battle for the cause of Allah; and those who disbelieve do battle for the cause of idols. So fight the minions of the devil. Lo! the devil’s strategy is ever weak," (Quran 4:76). Kill those against Islam: "The only reward of those who make war upon Allah and His messenger and strive after corruption in the land will be that they will be killed or crucified, or have their hands and feet on alternate sides cut off, or will be expelled out of the land. Such will be their degradation in the world, and in the Hereafter," (Quran Beheading: "When thy Lord inspired the angels, (saying): I am with you. So make those who believe stand firm. I will throw fear into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Then smite the necks and smite of them each finger. 13That is because they opposed Allah and His messenger. Whoso opposeth Allah and His messenger, (for him) lo! Allah is severe in punishment," (Quran Allah urges war: "O Prophet! urge the believers to war; if there are twenty patient ones of you they shall overcome two hundred, and if there are a hundred of you they shall overcome a thousand of those who disbelieve, because they are a people who do not understand," (Quran 8:65). Slay non-muslims: "Then, when the sacred months have passed, slay the idolaters wherever ye find them, and take them (captive), and besiege them, and prepare for them each ambush. But if they repent and establish worship and pay the poor-due, then leave their way free. Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful," (Quran 9:5). Allah urges war: "O Prophet! strive hard against the unbelievers and the hypocrites and be unyielding to them; and their abode is hell, and evil is the destination," (Quran 9:73). "O you who believe! fight those of the unbelievers who are near to you and let them find in you hardness; and know that Allah is with those who guard (against evil)," (Quran 9:123). Allah urges killing: "…the hypocrites and those in whose hearts is a disease and the agitators in the city do not desist… 61Cursed: wherever they are found they shall be seized and murdered, a (horrible) murdering. 62 (Such has been) the course of Allah with respect to those who have gone before; and you shall not find any change in the course of Allah, (Quran 33:60-62). Beheading: "Now when ye meet in battle those who disbelieve, then it is smiting of the necks until, when ye have routed them, then making fast of bonds; and afterward either grace or ransom till the war lay down its burdens…" (Quran 47:4). Allah loves those who fight for him. "Truly Allah loves those who fight in His Cause in battle array, as if they were a solid cemented structure," (Surah 61:4). Kill the Muslim who leaves Islam: "…for the Prophet said, ‘If somebody (a Muslim) discards his religion, kill him,’" (Hadith Vol. 4, Book 52, No. 260). Lying is okay "Muhammad bin Maslama got up saying, "O Allah’s Apostle! Would you like that I kill him [Ka’b bin Al-Ashraf]?" The Prophet said, "Yes," Muhammad bin Maslama said, "Then allow me to say a (false) thing (i.e. to deceive Kab). "The Prophet said, "You may say it," (Hadith Vol. 5, Book 59, No. 369). Jihad gets you paradise: "Allah’s Apostle said, "Allah guarantees (the person who carries out Jihad in His Cause and nothing compelled him to go out but Jihad in His Cause and the belief in His Word) that He will either admit him into Don’t take Jews and Christians as friends: "O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people," (Quran 5:51). The soul exits through the collar-bone when leaving the body. "Yea, when (the soul) reaches to the collar-bone (in its exit), 27And there will be a cry, "Who is a magician (to restore him)?" 28And he will conclude that it was (the Time) of Parting," (Surah 75:26-28). Drink Camel Urine as medicine: Some people from the tribe of ‘Ukl came to the Prophet and embraced Islam. The climate of Quran says that it is free from any contradiction; therefore, just one contradiction is sufficient to shows that it is God’s Word. Example: The Quran gives four conflicting accounts of how Muhammad received the Quran from Allah.
Which version is true? - The Quran contains many contradiction about the person of Jesus Christ, (Sura 4:157, 5:19,75, 9:30). Jesus was not the Son of God, he did not die for our sins. He was not crucified. He was not God as well as human. He is not the Savior. The Quran commited serious mistakes about the Trinity. Muhammad mistakenly thought that Christians worship three gods, namely the Father, Mary, the mother, and Jesus, the Son (Sura 5:73-75, 116).[10] The Quran makes the mistake of saying that Christians believe that Jesus is the Son of God in the sense that God the Father has a male body and had sexual relation with Mary, (Sura 2:116, 6:100-101, 10:68, 16:57, 19:35, 23:91, 37:149, 157, 43:16-19).
Final Conclusion: there are hundreds of contradictions in the Quran, a high level of falsification of events and doctrines, mixed with invention of speeches and dialogue between Muhammad and Allah. Allah is not the same God of the Bible. There is no salvation in the name of Allah, Muhammed, buddha, Joseph Smith, Charles Taza Russell, Lon hubbard, the Dalai Lama, the Grand Mufti, the Pope, Bishop Desmond tutu, Mary Baker Eddy, Zoroaster, Krishna, Confucius, Zen, Carma, Nirvanna, any Rabbi, any Shaman, any so-called prophet, any cultic leader or self-claimed angel.
Some Questions For the Muslims: "…and He sent down the Law (of Moses) and the Gospel (of Jesus)…"; (Quran, 3:3). "…there is none that can alter the words (and decrees) of Allah…" (Quran, The Muslims will say the Bible is valid when it agrees with the Quran but they will say it is wrong when it contradicts the Quran. The fact is that Muslims don’t believe what Jesus said about Himself. They say the Bible is corrupt, but who corrupted it and when was it corrupted? If you don’t know, then don’t say it. Why is it that the Muslims continue to repeat the same old stuff that has already been answered so many times? Are they not interested in the truth? Or, are the just interested in repeating the same old errors? What is the real Quran? "Hudhaifa was afraid of their differences in the recitation of the Qur’an…Uthman sent to every Muslim province one copy of what they had copied, and ordered that all the other Qur’anic materials, whether written in fragmentary manuscripts or whole copies, be burnt. (Hadith, Vol. 6, Book 61, No. 510) If there were so many other copies that were destroyed, then we have no way of knowing what the real Quran said. Voluptuous women await Muslim men in paradise. "Verily for the Righteous there will be a fulfillment of (the heart’s) desires; Gardens enclosed, and grapevines, and voluptuous women of equal age," (Quran, 78:31-33). It is okay to beat wives: "As to those women on whose part ye fear disloyalty and ill-conduct, admonish them (first), (Next), refuse to share their beds, (And last) beat them (lightly)…" (Quran, Muslim men may marry up to four women, but no such provision is made for Muslim women: "Marry women of your choice, Two or three or four; but if ye fear that ye shall not be able to deal justly (with them), then only one, or (a captive) that your right hands possess, that will be more suitable, to prevent you from doing injustice," (Surah 4:3). Is marrying four women not injustice? For further study on Islam, please visit www.chick.com
