toty5 wrote:: the Quran describes how Mary, the mother of Jesus, was approached by an angel from God, bringing her tidings she had never imagined: that she will give birth to a son, a Messiah, who will be of the righteous and will be a prophet of God, calling the Children of Israel (the Israelites) to the straight path of God.

“(And mention) when the angels said, ‘O Mary, indeed God gives you good tidings of a word from Him, whose name will be the Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary – distinguished in this world and the Hereafter and among those brought near (to God). He will speak to the people in the cradle and in maturity and will be of the righteous.” (Quran 3:45-46)

Naturally, for Mary, this news was both strange and seemingly impossible.

“She said, ‘My Lord, how will I have a child when no man has touched me?’ (The angel) said, “Such is God; He creates what He wills. When He decrees a matter, He only says to it, ‘Be,’ and it is. And He will teach him writing and wisdom and the Torah and the Gospel.” (Quran 3:47-48)

The very nature of Jesus is so special, that God compares the uniqueness of His creation to that of the first man and prophet, Adam.

“Indeed, the example of Jesus to God is like that of Adam. He created him from dust; then He said to him, ‘Be,’ and he was.” (Quran 3:59)
Jesus and His Miracles

Jesus became one of the greatest prophets of God, and was sent to the Children of Israel in order to confirm the teachings of his predecessor, the Prophet Moses. His birth was a miracle, and, like all prophets of God, he was granted several miracles. He approached his people, telling them:

“And (make him) a messenger to the Children of Israel, (who will say), ‘Indeed I have come to you with a sign from your Lord’ in that I design for you from the clay (that which is) like the form of a bird, then I breathe into it and it becomes a bird by permission of God. And I cure the blind (from birth) and the leper, and I give life to the dead – by permission of God. And I inform you of what you eat and what you store in your houses. Indeed in that is a sign for you, if you are believers. And (I have come) confirming what was before me of the Torah and to make lawful for you some of what was forbidden to you. And I have come to you with a sign from your Lord, so fear God and obey me. Indeed, God is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. That is the straight path.” (Quran 3:49-51)
Jesus’s Followers

The Quran continues the story of Jesus by relating several incidents of his life and his disciples.

“But when Jesus felt (persistence in) disbelief from them, he said, ‘Who are my supporters for (the cause of) God?’ The disciples said,” We are supporters for God. We have believed in God and testify that we are Muslims (submitting to Him.) Our Lord, we have believed in what You revealed and have followed the messenger (i.e., Jesus), so register us among the witnesses (to truth).” (Quran 3:52-53)

In another incident, after which an entire surah (chapter) of the Quran is named, the disciples of Jesus asked him for another miracle.

“(And remember) when the disciples said, ‘O Jesus, Son of Mary, can your Lord send down to us a table (spread with food) from the heaven?’ (Jesus) said, ‘Fear God, if you should be believers.’ They said, ‘We wish to eat from it and let our hearts be reassured and know that you have been truthful to us and be among its witnesses.’ Said Jesus, the son of Mary, ‘O God, our Lord, send down to us a table (spread with food) from the heaven to be for us a festival for the first of us and the last of us and a sign from You. And provide for us, and You are the best of providers.’” (Quran 5:112-114)

God sent them the table they had asked for, but not without a warning.

“God said, ‘Indeed, I will sent it down to you, but whoever disbelieves afterwards from among you – then indeed will I punish him with a punishment by which I have not punished anyone among the worlds.’” (Quran 5:115)
The End of the Story?

The story of Jesus never really ends in the Quran, as we are told that Jesus was not killed, but that rather, God raised His beloved prophet up to Him.

“(Mention) when God said, ‘O Jesus, indeed I will take you and raise you to Myself and purify (i.e., free) you from those who disbelieve and make those who follow you (in submission to God alone) superior to those who disbelieve until the Day of Resurrection. Then to Me is your return, and I will judge between you concerning that in which you used to differ. And as for those who disbelieved, I will punish them with a severe punishment in this world and the Hereafter, and they will have no helpers.’ But as for those who believed and did righteous deeds, He will give them in full their rewards, and God does not like the wrongdoers.” (Quran 3:55-57)

The Quran also points out that Jesus was neither killed nor crucified. Speaking of the Children of Israel, God faults their accusations against Mary as well as their claim that they killed Jesus.

“And (We cursed them) for their disbelief and their saying against Mary a great slander. And (for) their saying, ‘Indeed, we have killed the Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, the messenger of God.’ And they did not kill him, nor did they crucify him; but (another) was made to resemble him to them. And indeed, those who differ over it are in doubt about it. They have no knowledge of it except the following of assumption. And they did not kill him, for certain. Rather, God raised him to Himself. And ever is God Exalted in Might and Wise.” (Quran 4:156-158)

The Quran confirms that Jesus was raised up by God, and the Prophet Muhammad, may the mercy and blessings of God be upon him, reassured us that Jesus will be sent down to earth once again before the Day of Judgment. In a saying of Prophet Muhammad, narrated by Abu Hurairah, the Prophet said:

“By the One in Whose hand is my self, definitely the son of Maryam will soon descend among you as a just judge, and he will break the cross, kill the pig, and abolish the jizyah (tribute), and wealth will be so abundant that no one will accept it, until a single prostration will be better than the world and everything in it.” (Saheeh Al-Bukhari)

So why did Jesus preach peace and Muhammad preach hate?

toty5 wrote:: A Mercy for the Believers

Sure a couple examples of that... He had followers and their families burnt alive in their homes for missing prayer. Honor killings of Muslim women and children.

toty5 wrote:: A Mercy Towards his Enemies

Some examples of that... Beheaded his enemies. 900 Jewish men at one massacre. Had Jewish boys as young as 13 years old beheaded after pulling down their pants and inspecting groin for pubic hair. Ordered the murder, torture, terrorization of Christians and Jews if they did not convert to Islam. Forced Christians and Jews from Saudi Arabia in a mass exile. Assassinated people for insulting him or Islam. Ordered the extermination, torture and terrorization of kafirs. Instigated 60 massacres and personally participated in 27 of them. Murdered prisoners of war. Forced conversions to Islam. Allowed his companions to execute, behead, rape and enslave.

toty5 wrote:: A Mercy for Women

Very merciful, although he routinely molested his SIX YEAR OLD WIFE Aisha, he never actually penetrated her until she reached the ripe old age of NINE. Advocated sex with baby girls. Raped a retarded woman. Murdered a woman. Had sex with his dead aunt. Captured women and raped them. Kept women as sex slaves. Forced sex during their menstruation. Subjugated and oppressed Muslim women. Required them to cover their faces. Married his daughter inlaw. Approved prostitution. Encouraged the rape of women in front of their husbands. Stoned a woman to death after she had given birth. Determined that a woman’s testimony only counted as half that of a man. Ordained that men could beat their women if they were disobedient.

Muhammad forced a 17 yr old Jewish girl called Safiyyah to marry him and raped her on the same day he had her husband, brother and father beheaded. What a merciful way to treat her and her family.

toty5 wrote:: A Mercy for Children
Allaah’s Messenger was particularly compassionate towards children.

Yep, once again... Although he routinely molested his SIX YEAR OLD WIFE Aisha, he never actually penetrated her until she reached the ripe old age of NINE. Advocated sex with baby girls. Hit his wife – Baby Aisha. Beat children who didn’t pray. Abolished adoption. Honor killings of Muslim children. One of Baby Aisha’s wifely duties was to clean semen stains from the prophet’s clothes.

toty5 wrote:: A Mercy for Slaves

Kept women as sex slaves, that's merciful. Enslaved women and children. Treated his black slaves as beasts of burden.

toty5 wrote:: A Mercy for Animals
His compassion encompassed not only human beings, but also animals.

Well then, I feel bad for the animals too.

toty5 wrote:: The love and compassion of Allaah’s Messenger for all kinds of creatures was not of the kind claimed by HUMANS.

There, I fixed that sentence for you.

Very good article, and entirely true. The only thing the author left out is that the entity known as Allah is not in fact the God of Judeo/Christians, but rather is the entity they call Satan. That explains why he choose one of the most evil men ever, Muhammad, to be his representative on Earth. I'm just surprise he didn't recruit Hitler to be his next prophet. But then again Muslims do love Hitler and Nazis Germany.

OK Toty, which denomination/sect/adherent of Islam do you practice/believe in? And don't bother with "true" Islam.

Subject: Re: who is this man?........................ Sun Apr 27, 2014 5:01 pm

Random acts? I guess I have a different understanding of the word Random,in which case I can understand why all the peaceful Muslims never really denounce any of the atrocities perpetrated by the non-peaceful Muslims.
Maybe those enlightened Muslims should share their peaceful faith with the Muslims who are honor killing their family members or marrying children as part of Islamic dogma. I have a feeling the Christians in Syria,Egypt,and Libya would appreciate the love these days.
But what do I know since I Not studying Arabic and Islamic law

Well see that's just it, if we'd study Arabic and Islamic law, then we'd know there is nothing wrong with any of those things you mentioned since those "laws" say those actions are all good.

You do realize that this crap you are spouting is blaspheme to the Christian church and yet you are allowed to babble on and not get thrown in prison for insulting Christianity?

So you know nothing about Islam, and nothing about Christianity. You just know how to read and post YouTube videos. Anything else?

Just so I do not get confused again, what exactly do you mean? Is it topic specific, or do we just have to guess when you lose interest?
