Simillarities Between Islam And Christianity by dareabiola98(m): 3:26pm On Sep 18, 2013
Al-Qur'an 3:64
Say (O Muhammad SAW): "O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians): Come to a word that is just between us and you, that we worship none but Allah (Alone), and that we associate no partners with Him, and that none of us shall take others as lords besides Allah. Then, if they turn away, say: "Bear witness that we are Muslims."

More than many times do we fight and debate our difference Allah(SWT) commanded that we should come to common terms...Only by that shall people know the teachings of the prophets!!!

Every time a christian knocks on my door..I tell Him..let us come to common terms,and let's star doing what Jesus Practised..If u aren't,then I love Jesus More than you do...Most people leave Immediately!!!

[b]But Seriously,Let's come to common terms[/b

The are Five Basic Pillars in Islam

1. IMAN

The main core of the Iman Is believing That there is no other God But Allah,Eloha..and he's one
Every prophets sent to this world preached this Message
Say! He Allah(God) is One,He begets none nor is He begotten(Qur'an 112 vs 1-2) and in the bible Deuteronomy 6:4 Hear, O Israel: the LORD our God, the LORD is one. Mark 12:29 AND JESUS ANSWERED HIM THE FIRST OF ALL THE COMMANDMENTS IS HEAR O ISRAEL THE LORD OUR GOD IS ONE LORD

Shirk Recognised as the Biggest Sin

It is Mentiones in the qur'an
Verily, Allah forgives not that partners should be set up with him in worship, but He forgives except that (anything else) to whom He pleases, and whoever sets up partners with Allah in worship, he has indeed invented a tremendous sin.
And in the Bible
2 I am the LORD thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Thou shalt have no other gods before Me.
3 Thou shalt not make unto thee a graven image, nor any manner of likeness, of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth;
4 thou shalt not bow down unto them, nor serve them; for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate Me;
5 and showing mercy unto the thousandth generation of them that love Me and keep My commandments. {S}
Deuteronomy 5:7-9
7 Thou shalt not make unto thee a graven image, even any manner of likeness, of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
8 Thou shalt not bow down unto them, nor serve them; for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the third and upon the fourth generation of them that hate Me
9 and showing mercy unto the thousandth generation of them that love Me and keep My commandments. {S}


C. Jesus (pbuh) not God. He never claimed Divinity
In the Qur'an Surely, disbelievers are those who said: "Allah is the third of the three (in a Trinity)." But there is no ilah (god) (none who has the right to be worshipped) but One Ilah (God -Allah). And if they cease not from what they say, verily, a painful torment will befall the disbelievers among them.Al-Qur'an 5:72
In The bible
John 14:28YE HAVE HEARD HOW I SAID UNTO YOU
I GO AWAY AND COME AGAIN UNTO YOU. IF YE LOVED ME
YE WOULD REJOICE BECAUSE I SAID I GO UNTO THE FATHER- FOR MY FATHER IS GREATER THAN I.
John 10:29 MY FATHER WHICH GAVE THEM ME IS GREATER THAN ALL AND NO MAN IS ABLE TO PLUCK THEM OUT OF MY FATHER'S HAND.
Mathew 12:28 BUT IF I CAST OUT DEVILS BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD THEN THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS COME UNTO YOU.
Luke 11:20 BUT IF I WITH THE FINGER OF GOD CAST OUT DEVILS NO DOUBT THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS COME UPON YOU.
John 5:30 I CAN OF MINE OWN SELF DO NOTHING- AS I HEAR
I JUDGE- AND MY JUDGMENT IS JUST BECAUSE I SEEK NOT MINE OWN WILL
BUT THE WILL OF THE FATHER WHICH HATH SENT ME.
Acts 2:21 YE MEN OF ISRAEL HEAR THESE WORDS JESUS OF NAZARETH A MAN APPROVED OF GOD AMONG YOU BY MIRACLES AND WONDERS AND SIGNS WHICH GOD DID BY HIM IN THE MIDST OF YOU AS YE YOURSELVES ALSO KNOW

The truth of the matter is that heaven is not far from the true Christians. We hear from there on regular basis. Many faults of the early churches were told them by Jesus in the Book of Revelations. Jesus would not leave His own alone. He gets in contact with us. Apart from what the Bible says, credible reports were being sent to us through God's people. We are kept abreast of the happenings in heaven. Many Christians are already there in heaven, no cause for alarm for the true believers in Jesus Christ. Thank you.
