interesting! How does this not face the subject, those are verses to prove to you that sun, stars, moon etc are relevant. And that you determine things with them doesn't mean u worship them. The stars, sun, cloud, moon, etc. All have wat they translate to depending on there appearance and position. Or does it not occur to you there moments people do things depending on the weather change and positions of this components. Swallow some of your pride "Google search, " Biblical astrology" or ask any elderly man close to you about all this things.

Isaiah 47:13
"You are wearied with your many counsels; Let now the astrologers, Those who prophesy by the stars, Those who predict by the new moons, Stand up and save you from what will come upon you.

Moon worship has been practiced in Arabia since 2000 BC. The crescent moon is the most common symbol of this pagan moon worship as far back as 2000 BC.

In Mecca, there was a god named Hubal who was Lord of the Kabah.

This Hubal was a moon god. This moon god was also referred to as "al-ilah". This is not a proper name of a single specific god, but a generic reference meaning "the god". Each local pagan Arab tribe would refer to their own local tribal pagan god as "al-ilah".

"al-ilah" was later shortened to Allah before Muhammad began promoting his new religion in 610 AD.

There is evidence that Hubal was referred to as "Allah".

When Muhammad came along, he dropped all references to the name "Hubal" but retained the generic "Allah".

Muhammad retained almost all the pagan rituals of the Arabs at the Kaba and redefined them in monotheistic terms.

Regardless of the specifics of the facts, it is clear that Islam is derived from paganism that once worshiped a moon-god.

Although Islam is today a monotheist religion, its roots are in paganism which is all about Astrology.
Before you copy and paste, make sure that you are sure it's so. Now "al ilah" means the god, ilah means god
You even believe that there was a "god". Just because the Arabic word for god is Allah that makes it paganic? Na waa o

So you mean islamic calendar does not follow the sequence of days? If the moon comes out on the 27th of March the following day is the 1st of April?

Even with that, following the moon to determine your calendar still shows your allegiance to the moon as there are other means of counting days.

Occultists and people who make charms also have such allegiance to the moon. They would tell you the waxing or weaning moon in doing certain spells. The true God has all days for Himself, moon or no moon. Observance of moon in determining anything is pure occultism and idolatry.

Sunday: Old English Sunnandæg (pronounced [ˈsunnɑndæj]), meaning "sun's day." This is a translation of the Latin phrase dies Solis. English, like most of the Germanic languages, preserves the original pagan/sun associations of the day. Many other European languages, including all of the Romance languages, have changed its name to the equivalent of "the Lord's day" (based on Ecclesiastical Latin dies Dominica). In both West Germanic and North Germanic mythology the Sun is personified as a goddess

I still can't understand how Muslims find time to reply these people. apart from preventing them from misguiding others, words with them is a waste of precious time.

Where was it mentioned that the anti Christ was going to be a christen

Wisen up bro, the antichrist is a Christian. Even though in the right sense he is no a true Christian but a deceptive one. He is like a lamb and will try to claim to be the christ but at the end will deceive all. read below, he is like a LAMB, which means a deceptive Christian or false prophet.

Revelation 13:11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a LAMB, and he spake as a dragon. 13:12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. 13:13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, 13:14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

Stop the insult friend, islamic Allah is not my creator. Allah is Satan disguising as God. If allah and Yahweh are the same, why can't you say "Yahweh Akbar"?

Can you substantiate how Allah is the Satan disguising as God.

Does sun have a particular day it shines?

In Russian the word for Sunday is Воскресенье (Voskreseniye) meaning "Resurrection".[3] In other Slavic languages the word means "no work", for example Polish: Niedziela, Ukrainian: Недiля, Belorussian: Нядзеля, Croatian: Nedjelja, Serbian and Slovenian: Nedelja, Czech: Neděle, and Bulgarian: Неделя.

The Modern Greek word for Sunday, Greek: Κυριακή, is derived from Greek: Κύριος (Kyrios, Lord) also, due to its liturgical significance as the day commemorating the resurrection of Jesus Christ, i.e. The Lord's Day
