13 Reasons Why I Am A Muslim – Emmanuel Adebayor by Anasko(m): 7:55pm On Aug 01, 2015
BY ANTHONY ON JULY 31, 2015 SPORTS
In the past few months, Togolese footballer, Sheyi
Emmanuel Adebayor has been releasing online
family issues and how he has been dealing with
them as well as vice versa. As days, weeks,
months stretched on, he was reported to have
dumped his Christian faith and converted to
islam. His ‘conversion’ was also published online
with a YouTube video showing him in a gathering
of muslim faithfuls.
In his expected usual self, he released the
reasons why he converted to Islam.
Check out his reasons
I GOT 13 VALID REASONS WHY AND HOW
MUSLIMS ARE LIKE JESUS (PBUH) AND TRUER
FOLLOWERS OF JESUS THAN MOST CHRISTIANS
BELIEVE:
1. Jesus (pbuh) taught that there is only One God
and Only God should be worshipped as taught in
Deut 6:4, Mark 12:29. Muslims also believe this
as taught in the Qur’an verse 4:171.
2. Jesus (pbuh) didn’t eat pork as taught in
Leviticus 11:7 , and neither do Muslims as taught
in the Qur’an verse 6:145.
3. Jesus (pbuh) greeted with the words “as
salaamu alaikum” (Peace be with you) in John
20:21. Muslims also greet each other this way.
4. Jesus (pbuh) always said “God
Willing” (inshallah), Muslims say this too before
doing anything as taught in the Qur’an verses
18:23-24.
5. Jesus (pbuh) washed his face, hands, and feet
before praying. The Muslims do the same.
6. Jesus (pbuh) and other prophets of the Bible
prayed with their head to the ground (see
Matthew26:39). Muslims do too as taught in the
Qur’an verse 3:43.
7. Jesus (pbuh) had a beard and wore a throbe.
It is Sunnah for Muslim men to do the same.
8. Jesus (pbuh) followed the law and believed in
all the prophets, (see Matthew 5:17). Muslims do
too as taught in the Qur’an verses 3:84, and
2:285.
9. Jesus’ mother Maryam (pbut) dressed
modestly by fully covering her body and wearing a
headscarf (hijab) as found in 1 Timothy 2:9,
Genesis 24:64-65, and Corinthians 11:6. Muslim
women modestly dress the same as taught in the
Qur’an verse 33:59.
10. Jesus (pbuh) and other prophets of the Bible
fasted up to 40 days (see Exodus 34:28, Daniel
10:2-6. 1Kings 19:8, and Matthew 4:1-Muslims
do so also during the month of Ramadan.
Muslims are required to fast the full obligatory 30
days (see Qur’an 2:183), and others take it a step
further by fasting an additional 6 days to increase
their rewards.
11. Jesus (pbuh) taught to say “Peace to this
house” when entering it (see Luke 10:5), and to
also greet the people in the house with “peace be
unto you”. Muslims do exactly what Jesus did
and taught. When we enter our homes and the
homes of others we say “Bismillah” and also
greet with “as salaamu alaikum” (peace be upon
you) as taught in the Qur’an verse 24:61.
12. Jesus (pbuh) was circumcised. Circumcision
is 1 of the 5 fitrah in Islam, so Muslim men are
required to be circumcised. According to the Bible
in Luke 2:21, Jesus was eight days old when he
was circumcised. In the Torah, Allah/God stated
to the Prophet Abraham (pbuh) that it is an
“Everlasting covenant” (see Genesis 17:13). In the
Qur’an verse 16:123 Muslims are required to
follow the religion of Abraham. The Prophet
Muhammad (saws) said, “The Prophet Abraham
circumcised himself when he was eighty years
old.” (see Sahih hadith Bukhari, Muslim, and
Ahmad).
13. Jesus (pbuh) spoke aramaic and called
God”Elah”, which is pronounced the same as
“Allah”. Aramaic is an ancient, Biblical language.
It is one of the Semitic languages that also
include Hebrew, Arabic, Ethiopic and the ancient
Assyrian and Babylonian language of Akkadian.
The Aramaic”Elah” and the Arabic “Allah” are the
same.
The Aramaic “Elah” is derived from the Arabic
“Allah”, and it means “GOD”. “Allah” in Arabic also
means”GOD”, the Supreme GOD Almighty. You
can easilysee the similarity in their pronunciation
so this concludes that the God of Jesus is also
the God of the Muslims, of all mankind, and all
that exist.
Now tell me who is the real follower of jesus
(pbuh)? Obviously Muslims. Now I believe am a
true follower of Jesus PBUH

Brainwashed!!

He must have been a norminal Christian who has no proper training in God's word.

As a pointer to his ignorance, he said it is muslims that follow Jesus. How? Do must follow Jesus or Muhammad?


He didn't understand islam's true nature before he jumbed into it. He has joined the number of the deceived.

May God deliver him.
