Jesus (pbuh) was born a Jew so he did not eat pork.

It does not say you can eat pig (pork) in the Bible, Some folks just say it does.

I still say make me a tree, not plant one make me one out of nothing.

Who said anything about Jesus?

I said make a blade of grass not grow one from seed.

God has been around and created the world and all life on it long before he sent us Prophets.

There is but one God.

Tell your friends to make a blade of grass or a tree out of nothing.

Allah created us in that manner we are all children of God.

This is what happens when you change from one language to another, sometimes folks miss what the intent was by the original writer.

You may believe as you wish.

I was just pointing out these folks tried to prove there was no soul and proved the that there was.

Maybe you should look up when some folks tried to prove there is no soul. The findings surprised them.

Very true FirmBeliever you say It much better than I do.

Have fun and stay in peace

I did not know that Jesus was in the old testament thought he was the reason for the new.

Muhammad did not view what he brought to the world a new religion but just being a prophet in a long line...

Ahhhhh was wondering about that.

The points Firmbeliever brings up do need checking on as I know from my studies that Jews and Christians in Mecca and Medina followed Muhammad.

It was not until...

Was the writer of Revelation a prophet?
The reason for this was Jesus was in heaven and the source in the book was an angel.
I thought that Jesus was the last prophet according to Christians (or...

Well just a quick question.

Where in the Bible does Jesus claim to be God?

This is the largest difference between the Islam and Christianity.

By and large all media in the western world has a viewpoint that all of Islam is the same.
This would be like saying all Christians are the same.

There are 2 major sects in Islam and about 6 or...

Yes you should it will be up to God not man to decide on your final fate.

Most of the Sharia schools are Wahabi sect in origin and I am not sure that they follow the entire Holy Qur'an at times.

Ok maybe I missed something where do the followers of Islam deny the what Jesus (pbuh) teach? Some of them do but not all where the difference is Islam does not believe that Jesus is God. I have...

Choux
You do not see the wars or the terrorist attacks coming from most of Islam. The most populist Islamic countries are in Asia not the Middle east.

You will also find that these countries...

Just putting down what history shows. A lot of science came out of the middle east before the crusades not sure why it stopped.

Stay in peace

The Holy Bible and The Holy Qur'an are the words of God from his prophets. (pbut)

The problem is when people take verses out of context or just ignore parts of either.

Most of the problems...

One of the things to remember that Islam is about the same age as the Christian church was in the dark ages. I hope as I am sure Firmbeliever is that is does not take as long for Islam to get out of...

Maybe I missed something as or are you saying that the God in the Old Testament is not the same as the one in the New Testament?

I have said that the Old Testament,New Testament and Qur'an are all...

Yup that's what I said Talaniman. Don't see how that could be taken any other way.
And to look at it the Christian way to me would be schitzophrenic.

That's good Marily It's a lot better for folks to get along than be cussing at one another.

Stay in peace

That one is easy Jesus is a prophet of the one true God.

It has been almost 50 years when I last looked this up. Yes it comes from the tribes of Arabia and was in place when The Prophet started to bring the word of God to that area.
Will have to go back...

You have to go back but the full head to toe covering was from the tribes.
It is also in the Bible that women are to have their hair covered so it is not just from the Quor'an.

It is a holdover from some of the tribes that later converted to Islam. A burqa is not required by the Holy Quor'an.
Hope that helps even though question was not aimed at me.

Many places in the Quor'an he is held in high esteem by anyone who is a true Muslum.

A Muslum is someone who follows the will of God. It says in the Holy Quor'an that Jews, Christians and followers of Islam that follow the will of Allah (God) are Muslums.
Jesus was a Muslum so was...

I don't think they are being racist, I think they are just saying they believe something and if you believe something else you don't count.
Race has nothing to do with that attitude.

Stay in...

It also states in the Holy Quor'an that Mary was a virgin. So yes the followers of Islam believe that as well as Christians.

Jesus was a prophet of God not God in the flesh. That is where many Christians and Islam go their separate ways. As I said before some Christians believe the way Islam does that Jesus was a prophet.

That is what the problem is Jews Christians and Islam all come from Abraham and like most things in this world you just can't get folks to get along.

Not all Christian sects believe that Jesus was God but believe the way that Islam does that he was a Prophet of the one true God.

Salaam aliekum al-mukhleseen
Its been a long time from the last time I was in South Africa it was very beautiful when I was there in 1963.

Stay in peace (wish I could remember how the Zulu's...

The problem is that the "media" seems to like discord I sometimes think it picks the most radical views it can find and says this is mainstream Islam.

There are many places on the web and in...

But as Quor'an points out if you submit to the will of God you are a muslim. I know at times I do not express it well.

The best translation that I know of is by Maulana Muhammad Ali if you can...

aghamajid going back to the question that started this thread on sura 2 verse 62 it says very clearly that those who follow Allah and do good (follow the will of God) will have there reward.
As for...

There is only one God there are Christian religions that believe the way that the followers of Islam do that Jesus was a prophet of God and that being the "son" was in spirit.

The Quo'ran says...

magprob the Quo'ran speaks on this issue keep going in chapter 2 starting at verse 135 or 134 if I remember right.
The Quo'ran covers this in many suras give a few days to look up all of them and I...

Portland Oregon gets well over 100 inches of rain a year. It is part of the northwest rain forest the same as Seattle Washington.

Portland Oregon gets over 100 inches of rain a year it is in the northwest rain forest area.

The teachings say that a Muslim is a person who submits themselves to the will of God and from the way it is stated in the Suras that includes Jews and Christians.
Hope that helps.

Yes, just be sure none of your fingerprints are on it.

MrsDead the teachings of the Holy Quo'ran are that a muslem (muslim depends on where the english was taught) is a person who submits themselves to the will of God.

Sounds like your parents...

The cow is name of chapter 2 in english or Al-Baqarah question was not about "a cow"

Yes he can do this does not mean he will win.

That is not the only place in the Quo'ran that says that anyone who submits themselves to the will of God is a muslim. Yes the problem is the people reading the book I think they like to leave parts...
