LagosShia: My father was a christian. Muhammad's father was a pagan. He believed in sacrifice. Prophets before him did not. |

LagosShia: go and read the bible. The Quran does not describe God as the God of isreal". |
| Re: Why Do All Muslims Pray In Arabic?? by LagosShia: 1:26am On Aug 07, 2012 |
MacDaddy01:i have.
Holy Quran 2:136 "Say, [O believers], "We have believed in Allah and what has been revealed to us and what has been revealed to Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob and the Descendants [/b]and what was given to Moses and Jesus and what was given to the prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and we are Muslims [in submission] to Him." [b]Holy Quran 29:46 "And do not argue with the People of the Scripture except in a way that is best, except for those who commit injustice among them, and say, "We believe in that which has been revealed to us and revealed to you. And our God and your God is one; and we are Muslims [in submission] to Him." |

Up until recently, all Catholics read prayers in Latin. |

LagosShia: The above quotes do not refer to Allah as the God of isreal. However, the bible does. 1) The descendants of Abraham does not = Isreal. 2) Not all christians were Jews in the times of Jesus. People of the scriptures would mean christians. And so, that description would be beyond Isreal. You keep failing. Jesus was not a muslim. Jews and christians say that Moses and Jesus were religious Jews, yet you claim that they were muslims. Only one of you guys can be correct. Why should anyone learn about Jesus/Moses from Arabs and their Arabic Quran when they lived with Jews with Jewish laws. |

odumchi: Up until recently, all Catholics read prayers in Latin. What does this have to do with anything? Remeber that the bible was in Hebrew and Greek originally. |

MacDaddy01: I have heard a pastor describe himself as a Muslim, Muslim = one who submits to the will to God, . . ., hence we understand that Moses etc. We believe the prophets of God whether in the bible or Qur'an all brought the same message, but man later corrupted the messages that is the bible is filled with many mumble jumble, . . . the word Jew originated from the word Judah etc this was just a religion coined from a name of person to mean both a religion and an ethnicity any case . . . we believe all prophets shared the same principles . . . the worship of one God . . . |
| Re: Why Do All Muslims Pray In Arabic?? by MacDaddy01: 12:10pm On Aug 07, 2012 |
vedaxcool:@ bold part; Either you heard a liar or you're a liar. By your definition, Christians and Jews and other monotheists are muslims. Your definition fails. Why dont you guys admit it? Will someone stone you to death if you admit something is wrong? vedaxcool: This is funny. Do you know how insulting your whole religion is if you believe that? To call Jewish prophets muslim and then go around saying that their religion is corrupted when you borrowed from their religion, is kind of blasphemous and ungrateful to the Jews. |

MacDaddy01: didn't you see the name of Jacob (as) in the verse i presented? hope you know "Israel" refers to Jacob (as).
"people of the book" refers to jews first and christians secondly. i am not doing your exam and you're not my teacher.stop your ego.that is why i sometimes do not reply you.
many of what is "jewish law" is also Islamic law and can even be found in the Holy Quran. |
| Re: Why Do All Muslims Pray In Arabic?? by MacDaddy01: 12:26pm On Aug 07, 2012 |
LagosShia: There were christian converts from other nations apart from Isreal. The God of People of the book does not mean the same thing as God of isreal. Jacob is not isreal. Alcohol is not forbidden in Judaism and Christianity. So explain how Jewish laws were similar to Islamic laws. Jesus also converted water into wine. |

MacDaddy01: Genesis 32:28 "Then the man said, "Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel, because you have struggled with God and with men and have overcome." Isaiah 43:1 "But now, this is what the LORD says--he who created you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel: "Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine".
we are talking here about judaism and christianity,what is forbidden by them or not.we are talking about prophets God sent and what was revealed to them.upon examining the bible,you see a contradictory and confusing stance on the issue of consuming alcohol.you would not know whether to consume or not to consume.but there are clear verses prohibiting the use of alcohol.i am concerned with what these verses say and not with what ordinary jews and christians believe or interpret them to mean. in Islam,the early Muslims used to drink before the explicit verse totally forbidden alcohol was revealed. Proverbs 23:31-32 Do not gaze at wine when it is red,when it sparkles in the cup,when it goes down smoothly!32 In the end it bites like a snake and poisons like a viper. Luke 1:15 15 For he will be great in the sight of the Lord; and he will drink no wine or liquor, and he will be filled with the Holy Spirit [a]while yet in his mother’s womb. Leviticus 10:8-10 Then the LORD said to Aaron, “You and your sons are not to drink wine or other fermented drink whenever you go into the tent of meeting, or you will die. This is a lasting ordinance for the generations to come, so that you can distinguish between the holy and the common, between the unclean and the clean, 11 and so you can teach the Israelites all the decrees the LORD has given them through Moses.” Judges 13:4 Now see to it that you drink no wine or other fermented drink and that you do not eat anything unclean Proverbs 20:1 Wine is a mocker and beer a brawler; whoever is led astray by them is not wise. Deuteronomy 29:6 You ate no bread and drank no wine or other fermented drink. I did this so that you might know that I am the LORD your God.” Isaiah 5:11 Woe to those who rise early in the morning to run after their drinks, who stay up late at night till they are inflamed with wine. Isaiah 5:22 Woe to those who are heroes at drinking wine and champions at mixing drinks, Romans 14:21 It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor any thing whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak. |

LagosShia: Sorry, honest mistake. Was wrong about Jacob. LagosShia: LMAO, are you forgetting that a) Yes there are restrictions on wine when in holy places. But it is not forbidden? b) There are bible passages supporting wine c) Alcohol is not forbidden in Jewish law. So how is Jewish law the same as islamic law. Did the prophet drink alcohol? |
| Re: Why Do All Muslims Pray In Arabic?? by LagosShia: 1:46pm On Aug 07, 2012 |
MacDaddy01:i hope to see more of such admission.
the bible verses i provided certainly deemed alcohol as something "unholy" and "unclean".also,the verse in romans clearly says it is good to avoid it.in luke,it is said that John the Baptist (as) was great in the sight of the Lord and on par with that it is stated he drank no strong drink. obviously,God does not view alcohol as something good or clean that we should consume.the christians and jews can interpret anything from these verses and the others too which in a contradictory fashion in the confused,distorted and corrupt bible,praise consumption of wine.that is why i said,i do not follow what jews or christians believe but what God reveals. the Quran has made it easy by issuing an explicit verse putting a total prohibition on consuming alcohol.the Prophet (sa) did not consume alcohol. |

MacDaddy01: Lol! you are the liar, I heard him say on national TV, A.M Express, where he describes himself as a Muslim with a a small "m" because he has submitted to God, the fact that you suffer chronic inability to understand and perpetually ignorance hangover, the definition is valid, the prophets' all submitted to God and preach the truth, that men later on twisted to make tales of lies, the word Jew is more of an ethnicity than a religion (Jew from the word Judah), the word Christians comes from Christ, meaning the anointed, again that hardly sounds like a name of religion, this names were concocted by men, not by the prophets, this fact will remain impossible for an atheist bigot of unrestrained fanaticism to simply understand!MacDaddy01: we have proven our case from the bible countless times, . . . ungrateful is term god calls those who lie in morning and live in denial all their life . . . or do you now admit that the bible is a coherent literature? the mind of atheist is like a basket, truths they believe yesterday becomes blasphemous and ungrateful to jews . . . Hypocrisy is the one defining characteristics of an atheist . . . Jewish is a term for an ethnicity than a religion . . . a concpet that men evolve over time just like Christianity that Jesus never mentioned all his life . . . didn't Allah ask are the blind and the seeing alike? possibly to mr. annony and people like "logic"boy . . . ![]() |
| Re: Why Do All Muslims Pray In Arabic?? by MacDaddy01: 2:39pm On Aug 07, 2012 |
vedaxcool: When Vedaxcool is debunked, he becomes more abusive. ![]() What case did you prove from the bible? Huh? That Moses and Jesus were not Jewish by religion? Why cant you guys admit that you copied 2 other religions? |
| Re: Why Do All Muslims Pray In Arabic?? by MacDaddy01: 2:43pm On Aug 07, 2012 |
LagosShia: So you agree that the bible is different because it has no explicit ban of alcohol. Different Jewish laws |
| Re: Why Do All Muslims Pray In Arabic?? by vedaxcool(m): 2:51pm On Aug 07, 2012 |
MacDaddy01: When "logic"boy have been refuted he throws in red herrings to save face . . . the fact that you could not even answer the points raised in my post goes to show the flimsy logic you live by . . . as for the "insults" I never knew being ignorant is an insult . . . but the heart of it remains . .. they best describe who you really are . . . lol ![]() |
| Re: Why Do All Muslims Pray In Arabic?? by MacDaddy01: 3:55pm On Aug 07, 2012 |
vedaxcool: What points did you raise? Can you repeat any of them? You can call you partner ignorant or your Imam ignorant and see how it goes. When it comes to atheists and christians, it seems Vedaxcool has different rules. What points did you raise? The overall point is that anyone who believes that Arabic is necessary to fully understand the Quran is debuking the religion. The other point is that Moses and Jesus were eligious Jews that never spoke or understood Arabic. For you to say that Moses and Jesus were muslims is to say that muslims existed before Islam itself. The Quran is the revelation of God to Muhammed. How could there be muslims before the revelation because Jesus's and Moses revelations are opposing to Muhammeds. Jesus turned water into wine.....Muhammad believed that alcohol was banned by God Moses believed in a God of isreal- God's chosen people.....The Quran has directions for Arabs and then everyone. |
| Re: Why Do All Muslims Pray In Arabic?? by vedaxcool(m): 4:33pm On Aug 07, 2012 |
MacDaddy01: Whenever you can address the points raised four posts back then you would truly have saved face but to engage in red red herrings sort of argument will only deface you further . . . like I did say previously . . . vedaxcool: And truly the points towers high above you to understand indeed . . . |

vedaxcool: Vedaxcool, you have some mental problems. 1) Read my comment again, I said that you were either lying about the pastor-muslim or the muslim-pastor is a liar. What kind of pastor calls himself a muslim? I might as well call myself a 2) Jesus was a Jew by religion. He was not a muslim. Jesus referred to the Jewish scriptures in his teachings. Fact. |
