In another post @hasanhh posted the following The "Just Ends" of Allah -(سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى). is "to gather" everything on His -(سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى). Last Day where it is revealed He -(سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى) has "prescribed" Mercy for Himself -(سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى).(Ayat 6:12) --not "love." I am interested in this idea of God prescribing mercy and not love. Some people tell me that the Christan focus on God's love is equivelant to the Muslim focus on God's mercy. In the comment above it would seem that some people see them as different. Is God's love the same as God's mercy? If they are different how and why? If they are the same do …

Can People of Book go to heaven when they die?

Can People of Book (Jews and Christians) go to heaven when they die? What is the traditional Shi'a view? I have been told the traditional Sunni view is that all people of the Book go to hell when they die, as punishment for their failure to convert to Islam. Do Shi'a agree with that? (I especially am interested in what the traditional view is, not what some modern liberal Shi'a would say.) If a Jew or Christian tries their hardest to do good deeds and avoid evil, and to love and worship and pray to God, and they have heard of Islam (they probably don't know a lot about it, but they've heard some of the basics), but they are never convinced that Islam is tru…

All four Gospels record Jesus as saying, "Blessed are the peace-makers; they will be called sons of God." Bible says that God is not man ‘God is not a man’ (Numbers 23:19) ‘For I am God, and not man’ (Hosea 11:9) Jesus is called a man many times in the Bible ‘a man who has told you the truth’ (John 8:40) ‘Jesus the Nazarene, a man attested to you by God with miracles and wonders and signs which God performed through Him in your midst, just as you yourselves know.’ (Acts 2:22) ‘He will judge the world in righteousness through a man whom He has appointed’ (Acts 17:31) ‘the man Christ Jesus’ (Tim. 2:5) The Bible says th…

Assalamu aleikoum Brothers & Sisters, i think that many people would be probably shocked of this info. This Church (mother of the other Christian Churches, except Nestorian and partly Tewahedo) is in fact pagan bloodthirsty worship of the sun - go google photos ,,Christianity Sun worship". The Latin Church after Constantine's accepting of Christianity many pagan traditions became part of that faith and the Roman Empire started never-ending war against the ,,pagans" and heretics, for example war against Christian Arianism faith or later crusades against the Muslims, Orthodox (Eastern) Christians, Christian Albigensians and later against the northern and …

Hello ladies, I am a follower of Jesus, and I am looking for another lady who can help me understand the culture and the faith of my muslim friends. The teachings of the Injeel, God has called us to love everyone because He is love. There seems to be so much misunderstanding in the world, and I believe we are all looking for truth. Maybe we can come to a greater understanding of each other when we share our own culture, traditions and faith.

I wanted Ben Shapiro to reply to Harris by telling him his morals are meaningless and subjective under atheism and that Ben’s morals are objective under theism. I also want Ben Shapiro to debate Mehdi Hasan one day on Israel or Islam.

Salaamun Alaykum, What does “glorify Me together with Yourself“ and “with the glory which I had with You before the world was“ mean? I was thinking 2 refers to Nur e Muhammad, where Jesus (عليه السلام) is a manifestation of Muhammad (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) and Ali ((عليه السلام)). “'I am the one who spoke through the utterance of Jesus when he was still in the cradled.I am Noah. I am Abraham. I am Sálih Who possessed the She-Camel as His Sign.' - Imam Ali (عليه السلام). Note here that Jesus (عليه السلام) judging the world (In MAtthew) could mean Imam Ali ((عليه السلام)) Judging the world. But I’m unsure about Point 1. Full Quote

Hello I recently came across this verse as I read the Qur'an Qur'an an-Nahl 16:90 Indeed, Allah orders justice and good conduct and giving to relatives and forbids immorality and bad conduct and oppression. He admonishes you that perhaps you will be reminded. It made me think of some of Jesus the Messiah's teaching in the Injil Luke chapter 6 32 ‘If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them. 33 And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do that. 34 And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend …

I am probably the first ever non-Muslim to defend the Islamic view of Christ’s crucifixion, namely that someone else was made to look like Jesus and it was this substitute who was crucified instead. To be more precise, both the Islamic and Christian stories of Christ’s crucifixion can be linked to the rituals of the ancient Israelite ‘Day of Atonement’. In particular, these rituals involved using two goats which had to be identical - hence the idea of Jesus’ face being copied to another person. Therefore, this ‘substitution theory’ is shown in all probability to have come from the apostles of Christ (+1 to Islam). However, to keep a balance, the Quranic account of Jesus b…

I had another paper published in the Iranian journal, Religious Inquiries, earlier this year, 2020. Here is the summary: The Quranic statement that Jesus predicted Muhammad by name is examined in light of the expectation of what the “kingdom of God” was. The concept of the kingdom of God as being the light or fire of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost is contrasted with the Sufi concept of the “Light of Muhammad.” Pentecost could be the Light of Muhammad coming upon the apostles of Christ; the Light is the same, but known under a different name. However, on the other hand, it is shown that some Jewish Christians could have been looking for an earthly “kingdom of Israel” to…

There's a hadith that christians like to use a lot, claiming the prophet "didn't know weather he'll be going to heaven": when the prophet ((صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم)) going to visit a house where the body of a Muslim who had died still lay. A woman addressed the dead body, saying: “May Allah have mercy on you. I testify that Allah has honored you. Muhammad ((صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم)) asked the woman, “How do you know that Allah has honoured this man? “I know, by Allah,” she said. Muhammad ((صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم)) replied, “This man, death struck him and I wish him the best in the name of Allah. By Allah, although I am the Messenger of Allah, I know not what will ha…

In the first three centuries of Islam, many unique stories and sayings about Christ Jesus son of Mary (عليه السلام) were gathered and included in the major compilations of hadith. Some of the sayings resembled Biblical stories, while others were original. Prophet Muhammad (s) indeed relayed some of these accounts, while others came from the milieu, reported by the early generations. Some narrations may come lost, early Christian sects that have since died out. The Jesus of the Islamic tradition was a spiritual, ascetic prophet who came to reform the spirit of the law. He spoke of humility, living simply, good character; and against scholars for dollars and feigned righ…

Hello, my friends! My name is Tony, and I am new to this site. I am a follower of the teachings of Isa, and I am not here to convince you my religion is better than yours. I am here for friendly, open, and honest dialogue. I do believe the media and social media has created many false representations of both Christians and Muslims. I have many Muslim and Christian friends, and their character is different than the portrayal in the media. I am a lifelong learner, hence my reason for joining this site. I want to continue to learn more about my Muslim friends, beliefs, and culture. I believe the most significant divide between followers of Isa al Masih and Muslims, is t…

Al-Salaam Alaikum, From the book, among the most important messages in my opinion are: ------------------------------------------ - (World War 3 ) They aim to destroy Islam as world power, because if it is not destroyed, it would undoubtedly line up with Christianity against communism. In this event the balance of power would go to Christianity and Islam, and it would be highly unlikely that Christianity and Islam would exterminate each other. - What does it matter if devils incarnate kill our bodies provided we prevent them deceiving us in losing our eternal souls Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be …

Hi There I heard this today - a song sung by a Christian and a Muslim. The lyrics are a Moroccan sufi poem Al-Fiyashiyya الفياشية writen by Sidi Bahloul Charki It has a Christian hymn sung in the background "All creatures of our God and King, Lift up your voice and with us sing, Alleluia! Alleluia!, O praise Him! O praise Him! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!" The word "Alleluia" or "Hallelujah" (from Hebrew הללויה) literally means "Praise the Lord" or "Praise to God" What do you think? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4NRDX_Px-c

https://www.miracles-of-quran.com/pharaoh.htm Pharaoh For centuries it was thought that all Egyptian rulers were referred to as Pharaohs. Actually the Christian Bible insists that Abraham and Joseph interacted with Pharaohs. However modern discoveries show that this cannot be true. Pharaoh is a title given to rulers in the Egyptian New Kingdom, not before. Before the New Kingdom the word "Pharaoh" meant "Great House" and it referred to the buildings of the court or palace but not to the ruler. So there were no Pharaohs at the time of Abraham or Joseph. They were just kings. But the Quran didn't do this mistake. The Quran correctly addressed t…

Tulsi Gabbard calls out the US dirty war on Syria that Biden, aides admit to AARON MATÉ·MARCH 5, 2021 As Tulsi Gabbard criticizes former Congressional colleagues for ignoring the ongoing US dirty war and sanctions on Syria, a look at the comments of Joe Biden and top aides show that they have admitted to the same underlying, horrific facts. Gabbard only stands apart — and is even vilified — for being willing to call it out. While Joe Biden has faced some mild Congressional pushback for bombing the Iraq-Syria border, Tulsi Gabbard says her former colleagues are ignoring the larger issue: the US ongoing dirty war on Syria. After a decade of proxy warfare that empowered Al Qaeda and ISIS, the US is now occupying one-third of Syria and imposing crippling sanctions that are crushing Syria’s economy and preventing reconstruction. While Gabbard has been vilified for her stance on Syria, many top White House officials — including Joe Biden himself — have already acknowledged the same facts that she has called out. Aaron Maté plays clips of Biden and some of his most senior aides admitting to the horrific realities of the US dirty war on Syria, and argues that Gabbard only stands apart in being wiling to criticize it. Two ways to listen: https://m.soundcloud.com/pushbackshow/tulsi-gabbard-calls-out-the-us-dirty-war-on-syria-that-biden-aides-admit-to

I joke, but it recently dawned on me that most likely (statistically speaking) I'll be marrying out of my race and culture and I don't know what to make of that tbh. I like to think I don't care about (non-Islamic) traditions but like, it's nicer if things are easy I don't know. Inshallah I'll figure it out.
