That's the issue. That beginning has no beginning because it is outside time which was created by God.

First off, it was Aisha who narrated how her sheep ate the koran under her pillow as they were running around trying to help Muhammed after he ate poison.

Here is the narration;

Book 008, Number 3424:
' A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported that Sahla bint Suhail came to Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) and said: Messenger of Allah, I see on the face of Abu Hudhaifa (signs of disgust) on entering of Salim (who is an ally) into (our house), whereupon Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) said: Suckle him. She said: How can I suckle him as he is a grown-up man? Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) smiled and said: I already know that he is a young man. 'Amr has made this addition in his narration that he participated in the Battle of Badr and in the narration of Ibn 'Umar (the words are): Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) laughed.


Secondly. As a word gets revealed by allah to jibril to muhammed to whoever else who memorizes it, you stand so solidly to declare that the koran is accurate?

Listen Muslim, i don't care so long as you practice your Islam leaving the Bible out of it.
Oh wait!!!!!, without the Bible, Islam will be dead.

Ask yourself this, Why don't Christians or Jews at least once quote from the accurate and complete koran just for once to buttress their points?

Why always muslims?

Get your accurate and complete koran and get lost.
Girl, you are Fire! shocked shocked shocked

I don't mean to sound as an atheist but this question has always popped up in my mind every now and then. Now, religious-wise nlanders, help me out.

How Did God Come To Be?
The question is flawed not in the sense that is wrong to ask, but in the sense that you do not know the nature of God. God created Time, space and matter. In the Beginning (time), God created the Heaven (space) and the earth (matter). These three must be created at the same time or else if you create matter alone which space will you put it? If you create space alone, what time did you create it? What is time without space and matter?
Now the creator of these three things (time, space and matter) should not be limited by it. If you created your phone, you are not limited by the phone. You are independent of the phone. So someone who created time should not be limited by it. Hence He has not beginning nor end. Instead He is the beginning and the end. He created space so he shouldn't be limited by it. That's why He is omnipresent. He created matter and so not limited to it.
So the question of "who created God" is born out of the fallacious thinking that God is limited by His creation when He is not.

What's the correct point of view?
That God didn't create evil?
That God didn't allow evil?
Cut out the Sir, please. It creeps me out. Makes me feel very old grin grin grin
I will not call you "sir" again, sir grin grin.
Seriously now. Evil isn't a "thing". What do I mean? Evil is simply the absence of Good. Evil can be Moral or Natural. Moral in the sense that people do evil and then we have natural evil like natural disasters, sicknesses, blah blah blah.
Now One of the greatest ethic God has given us is love. Love isn't learnt. It is in built. If it is possible for a baby to grow in isolation, will that baby know how to Love? Yes.
Now we have to ask, how did we get this ability love? Who placed it in us?
I believe God did. And its an ethic implanted in us from birth. But if we have the freewill to love, then we should have the freewill not to love. Moral evil is caused from that decision not to love. If we are all compelled to love, then we are simply robots. God is all powerful, but he has given us that will not to love.
As for natural evil. God made a perfect world in Eden, sin came in and spoilt that world. Now you will ask, why can't an all powerful God stop evil? Humans grade evil, God does not. Its either black or white. Evil or good. Take evil away from the world and we all die. You know why? Cuz we commit evil every single day. Even as small (not small to God cuz he doesn't grade it) as lying.

This is a simple statement. During the time of Jesus (peace be upon him) he was the above.
Now, you tell me I'm wrong. Before Jesus (peace be upon him) was Moses (peace be upon him), right or wrong? Moses commanded the people to pray as he did, fast, or whatever God commanded, right or wrong? Whoever obeyed, was on the right path, to God, and whoever disobeyed, strayed from truth, right or wrong?
So, with the above, it can be said that Moses (peace be upon him) in his time was also the way, truth and life, and no one went to God except through him). But now, it is the time of Muhammad (peace be upon him), and if you do not believe in his teachings, you have also strayed from the path. This is simple and has nothing to do with divinity.
Please, let's be reasonable.


This is simple. When God sends down a new ruling concerning a matter, such that it overrides the previous one, you have an abrogation.
For example, God prohibited drinking of alcohol in steps.
First, He allowed it, but commanded the Muslims that when they were drunk, they should abstain from prayer.
Later, God disallowed it totally by revealing another verse, commanding total abstainance from taking alcohol, hence, the second verse abrogated the first.
You are so wrong on many levels. Moses never accepted worship, Jesus did (Matthew 14:33). Moses never forgave sins, Jesus did (Luke 7:48) up to the point that even the teachers in the synagogue saw it as blasphemy. If it was a normal thing to do, they wouldn't see it that way. Jesus said in John 8:58 - Before Abraham was, I AM. What did God call himself when he revealed himself to Moses?
Matthew 28:19 is an instruction from Jesus telling us to preach the word and Baptise all in THE NAME OF THE FATHER, THE SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT.
Moses never called himself the way, the truth and the Life. Jesus did.
Finally Jesus called Himself the Son of Man that was revealed in Daniel 7:13, and said he will seat at the right hand of God like was written in Psalm 110:1.
In John 10:33 after Jesus said He and the father are one, the Jews accused Him of making himself equal with God. Note that Jesus never denied it.
I could give you more verses but I am late to church grin
Finally on abrogation. Are you saying God changes His mind on laws?

Absolutely.


Countless reasons.
For a book to be the word of God, it must satisfy some criteria, of which are;
*It must not attribute to God, anything against his nature.
*It should not attribute to any created being, anything which pertains only to God.
*No part should contradict another.
By these standards, only the Quran is fitting.
These are some of the very few reasons, sir.


The Qur'an is the pure word of God, nothing less. The hadith is the teachings of the prophet, Muhammad (peace be upon him).
Also, it tells us when, where and under what circumstances the verses of the Quran were revealed, such that with this information, one will not apply for example, a verse revealed in a time of war, in conditions of peace.
So, in Islam, the word of God is kept pure, and separate from words of the prophet (peace be upon him), or other persons.
So how do you explain John 14:16
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
And how do you explain abrogations in the Koran?

Did Jesus Christ celebrate Christmas, New Year and Easter ?
Did Jesus ever no or read the book called bible inspired through Paul ?
Did Christ accept collectiin of tiet ?
Did Jesus swear to Is own beloved lost sheep ? Yes or No
Yes sir. Deeper life can worship in Catholic. I have worshipped in many churches including deeper life and Catholic. We do not hate each other. We disagree on little basics but we do not hate each other. I hear news everyday of the Sunni killing the shia and vice versa. Sir, here is a link that iranians (who are mostly shia) are not allowed for pilgrimage in mecca.
https://newrepublic.com/minutes/127214/iranians-no-longer-allowed-make-pilgrimage-mecca
This is as a result of the intense hate between both parties.
And sit, pilgrimage is not essential in my faith. People do it just mostly for sight seeing and the reflect on the history of out faith. So it doesn't count whether you go to Rome or Jerusalem. There is nothing holy about going for pilgrimage. God hears you wherever you pray.
Did Muhammad read the Hadiths? Jesus couldn't have read the Bible because it was compiled after His death and resurrection.
Jesus couldn't have attended any church because He is the church. I don't expect you to understand this though.
So sir the hatred is actually among you Muslims. Again I ask have you ever heard of one sect in Christianity killing another?

Religion / Re: What Is The Difference Between Christianity And Islam by ilynem(m): 10:04pm On May 20, 2017
Origin:
The difference is Muslims do not insult theirs or others religious belief . They would rather discuss with you with proof.

There are two things:
1. The way God has asked to be worshipped, His approvals, His disapprovals.
2. What humans actually do in respect of 1.


Muslims take 1 seriously and know in their heart that no matter where they are at 2 their aim is still to achieve 1.

Now Christians take 1 as open to numerous interpretations and belief that 2 is actually more important than 1. And that no matter what happens in 2, God would have to accept it.


E.g on matters of religion:
I am God . One. Without Partner.

Muslims: Yes Sir.
Christian: Yes but where will we now put Jesus and holy Ghost. It's the three of them that will be One god. All this people tried for us . We will join them together and they will be three in One.
I take it you are a Muslim ma? If you are can I ask you a simple question?

I've never met a dumb atheist
I've met many dumb theists though
I'll also be fair by saying the two most intelligent persons I know are theist and deist

that's where I made my conclusions from, I'm not saying you should take my word for it but I've observed it takes a certain level of intellect to question what one was brought up with

I'm not one of those that do that, but for those that do it does make sense! if theists especially Christians keep calling their god the four omnis (scient, present, potent, benevolent) they should be able to get such "natural disaster" claim, what's "benevolent" about the Haiti earthquake?

I have asked Christians the question, "If an all-powerful, loving God exists why does he allow children to starve?" I usually get one of two responses. Either they tell me that God's ways are "mysterious" and that children starving are all a part of his greater plan that we won't know about until after we die. Or they smugly turn it around to say, "Why are YOU letting kids starve to death? God works through human hands."
The first answer is a total cop-out and basically says they have no friggin' clue as to why he does things but he MUST have some good reason for it. It's just that we are not privy to that reason.
When they say the second answer I respond by giving the following example. Say I am a father and have a 10 yr old son. The son wants a dog for his birthday. So I buy him a puppy and say that it is his responsibility to feed it. He agrees. After awhile the son ignores the puppy and isn't feeding it. The puppy is starving. I have the power to feed the puppy. All I have to do it put food in its bowl. But I don't because feeding the puppy is my son's responsibility. So I watch the puppy starve to death. Now what do you think of me? Would you think I was a heartless monster? Or would you say it was not my fault the puppy starved since it was my son's duty to feed it?
They usually don't have an answer for that one.


On the whole, proselytizing is a one-way procedure. Atheists don't generally try to "convert" the religious, and are not to be found ringing doorbells and distributing little tracts. Atheists with a scientific bent, however, do not let some of the sillier claims of the theists go unchallenged, nor do we take kindly to the incursions when theists try to bring their religion-of-choice into the public sphere to be imposed upon others. In other words, we tend to play defense, not offense, but you'd never think it from the outraged cries of those who think they're losing a Christian privilege that they should never have claimed in the first place.

you want to be able to tell us to accept Jesus, YOU don't let Muslims worship their Allah, you don't let Catholics worship Jesus the way they deem fit, you criticise those groups a lot and more but somehow you want the privilege of yours not facing the same criticism

They had children and died naturally. In conclusion
Prophet Muhammad was like Prophet Moses.
Ha. And these are lies sir. Read the verse properly without bias and you will realize that there was no way moses meant "from the Arabs".
Now for similarities between moses and Jesus. I hope you can read this long?
At the time when Moses was born, the Egyptians ruled over the Israelites (Exodus 1:8-10). At the time when Jesus was born, the Romans ruled over the Israelites (Luke 2:1-5). Each was born when the Hebrew nation was occupied and at a low point in history.
Pharaoh ordered all the Hebrew sons to be killed upon birth. When this was not executed by the midwives, Pharaoh then ordered all sons to be killed (Exodus 1:16-22). King Herod ordered all Hebrew sons to be killed upon birth (Matthew 2:16).
When Moses was born, his mother hid him for three months in Egypt (Exodus 2:2). Jesus was hid in Egypt for an unspecified amount of time after birth (Matthew 2:13).
Moses was named as such because he was drawn out of the water (Exodus 2:10). Jesus went straightway out of the water after being baptized by John the Baptist (Matthew 3:11). Drawing from the well of water is a symbol of salvation (Isaiah 12:3). The name Jesus means salvation.
Moses was raised by a man, Pharaoh, who was not his natural father (Exodus 2:9-10). Jesus was raised by a man who was not his natural father (Luke 2:33). In this case, Jesus did not have a natural father.
Moses was initially rejected by his people and took a gentile bride, Zipporah (Exodus 2:11-14 and 16-21). Jesus was initially rejected by his people and took a gentile bride, the Church (2 Corinthians 11:2).
Moses saw his brethren being treated unfairly by the Egyptians and had compassion on them (Exodus 2:11). Jesus saw his brethren as needing a shepherd and had compassion on them (Mark 6:34). Moses took his flock to the Promised Land and Jesus promised His flock heaven.
Moses was at a well and was kind to the daughters of the Midian priests. He watered their flock, which was not a common practice at that time (Exodus 2:17). Jesus was at a well and was kind to a Samaritan woman. He offered her water (John 4:9-11). This practice was also uncommon. The water Jesus offered was the water of salvation.
Moses remained in exile in a foreign land until the King of Egypt (Pharaoh) died (Exodus 2:23). Jesus was in exile in a foreign land (Egypt) until King Herod died. (Matthew 2: 19-20)
Moses’ ministry started supernaturally with the burning bush and God speaking to Him (Exodus 3: 2-4). Jesus’ ministry started supernaturally when the dove descended on Him and a voice from Heaven spoke (Matthew 3:16-17). It is at this point when each gave Revelation to the people.
Moses was sent by God to “come down” and deliver His people to the Promised Land (Exodus 3:cool. Jesus was sent by God to “come down” deliver His people to Heaven (Luke 4:18). You can say that Heaven is now the Promised Land.
Moses performed many public miracles following God’s direction (Exodus 4:4-9). Jesus performed many public miracles following God’s direction (John 5:19-20). The specific miracles differed but each occurred only due to God’s power.
Moses liberated the Hebrews so that they may serve God (Exodus 9:1). Jesus liberated mankind so that mankind may serve God (Hebrews 9:14 and 12:28).
Moses used the blood of a lamb to protect the Israelites from death. The blood was also used to free the Israelites from bondage (Exodus 12). Jesus was the Lamb of God who protected mankind from death. The blood was also used to free mankind from the bondage of sin. (John 1:29 and Hebrews 9:11-15)
Moses used a covenant meal (Passover) for Israel to remember their Lord’s deliverance (Exodus 12:25-27). Jesus used a covenant meal (Last Supper) for his disciples to remember their Lord’s deliverance (Luke 22:14-20).
Moses was used to reveal the healing power of God (Exodus 15:26). Jesus was used to reveal the healing power of God (Matthew 4:23).
Moses fed the multitude of Israelites in a supernatural way (Exodus 16:16). Jesus fed a multitude, 5000 people, in a supernatural way (Matthew 14:19-21).
Moses gave the Israelites bread from Heaven called Manna for 40 years (Exodus 16:27-36). Jesus said He was the bread from heaven that gives life to the world (John 6:33).
Moses instructed his people to gather bread (Manna) daily (Exodus 16:20-21). Jesus instructed His disciples to feed their souls with spiritual bread daily (Matthew 6:11).
Moses feared being stoned by the Israelites (Exodus 17:4). The people were ready to stone Jesus (John 10:31). Each was for different reasons but does demonstrate the spiritual condition of the people.
Moses received God’s Law on Mount Sinai (Exodus 19:3). Jesus delivered the Sermon on the Mount with the promise to fulfill God’s Law (Matthew 5:1-17). The mountain Jesus was on is unnamed but the correlation to both Moses and Jesus using a mountain in reveal matters of God’s Law is important.
Moses was the judge for Israel an the final authority for decision making (Exodus 18-22). Jesus will return as the judge for mankind (2 Corinthians 5:10 and 2 Timothy 4:1).
Moses was a mouthpiece for God by speaking the Words God gave Him. (Exodus 19:7-cool. Jesus was a mouthpiece for God by speaking the Words God gave Him. (John 8:28-29)
God came to Moses in a thick cloud (Exodus 19:9 and 24:16). God came to Jesus in a thick cloud (Mark 9:7).
Moses sprinkled the blood of the first covenant on the people (Exodus 24:cool. Jesus used the blood of the new covenant, His own blood, to sanctify the people (Hebrews 13:12).
God gave Moses commandments to teach His people (Exodus 24:12). God gave Jesus commandments to teach His people (John 13:34)
Moses interceded with God on behalf of the people of Israel (Exodus 32:11-14). Jesus interceded with God on behalf of mankind, fulfilling the prophecy of Isaiah 53:12 by being the final sacrifice for sin (Matthew 20:28).

Where was lust mentioned in this narration...... does giving them milk mean he is sucking directly from her breast ? And what was the reason why he was given milk ? Because he was so close to the family & they wanted him to be a mahram..... where did u see lust there ?
Sahih Muslim

Book 008, Number 3424:
' A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported that Sahla bint Suhail came to Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) and said: Messenger of Allah, I see on the face of Abu Hudhaifa (signs of disgust) on entering of Salim (who is an ally) into (our house), whereupon Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) said: Suckle him. She said: How can I suckle him as he is a grown-up man? Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) smiled and said: I already know that he is a young man. 'Amr has made this addition in his narration that he participated in the Battle of Badr and in the narration of Ibn 'Umar (the words are): Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) laughed.
