The unfortunate think about christianity though, is that Jesus (AS) did not pracise that religion, nor did he name his followers (Companions), Christians. In view of this christianity is manmade religion. Jesus practised the same religion as his father in faith, Ibrahiim and the rest of the prophets before him. Could anyone tell me that religion. Judaism was not it. At least, jacob was not a Jew. It was a branch of his children that Judaism was coined out. For all who are not following the line of worship as these prophets, you may have gone far astray. If Moses is the prophet, will the christians and the Muslims follow him to paradise. If Jesus was the chosen prophet will the Jews and the Muslims follow him to paradise. If Muhammad is the chosen prophet will the jews and the christians follow him to paradise? For sure, these three major religions, as of today, if God were to judge the followership, at best only one will go to paradise. Or all could go to Hellfire,not two or all will go to paradise. Are you on the right path, or trying to search for truth? |

@olabowale you dont have to answer to all these posts in ma opinion.U should ask urself: why r all the posts directed at islam?(I knwsome would say some are directed at xtians as well but it is this kind of posts that trigger it).olabowale u shld knw it is anger at what they feel is sooooooooo bad and still commands such influence. so they try to say all sorts of things against it like the overflogged issue of "killing all infidels" and muhammed(SAW) marrying a 6,9 or 8 yr old. |

charlisco: Can the tru honest muslims give an answers to the questions posed above. I truly desire to learn! |
Re: 45 Crucial Issues Or Question You Need To Know In Islam by babs787(m): 9:15am On Mar 05, 2007 |
babyosisi: I have shut my mouth because the questions are senseless and do not need any response. By the way, where is the charlisco guy? Let him come up with whatever he has against Islam and we move from there. The above need no response. Some have been answered in most of the threads. I wonder when Christians start accusing Muslims of Paganism when their religion is being established on fraud, culled from paganism and spread about by pagans. Most of your doctrines are being culled from paganism yet they accuse muslims of same. So I am shutting my mouth because your questions do not need any response. I asked a question then but you never said anything on that rather you labelled me escapist. You christians have been saying that God of the bible preaches love and I have been asking you, if jesus is really God, is God of the OT different from NT? |
