Jesus and Muhammad
(peace
be upon them)
Holy Prophets and
Messengers of God (Allah)
God (Allah) created all the people with the faculty of the mind
to use it properly.
People are 2 types:
1. Accountable: People who are
sane, pubescent and heard the call of Islam
2. Non-Accountable: Any person
either insane, or not pubescent, or never heard the basic call of Islam.
IF the person was accountable, and
disbelieved in God, how could he/she be admitted to Paradise?
Now if that person was not
accountable, say a women who lived in Africa, and never heard the call of
Islam, and used to help the poor, and treat people nicely, she does not go to
hellfire, she will go to Paradise. Now say a child and a crazy person, who
lived all his life worshipping a rock, and they died on that situation, one
died as a child (before puberty and the other died insane) they don't go to
hellfire. Because they are not accountable.
But the one was accountable, that is
he was sane, pubescent, and he heard the call of the religion, and rejected
that call, he does not go to Paradise, he goes to hellfire. Say one lived at
the time of Prophet Jesus, or at the time of Prophet Muhammad, and they were
accountable, and they disbelieved, they don't go to Paradise because they died
as accountable disbelievers.
It's easy to become a believer:
One becomes a Muslim by believing in
the Two Testifications of Faith and uttering (saying)
them with the intention of leaving out blasphemy. The Two Testifications
of Faith In English are:
“I bear witness that no one deserves
to be worshiped except Allah and I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger
of Allah”. That also includes believing in Jesus as a Prophet of God.
God gave humans intellect to know the
truth and differentiate between it and falsehood.
The truth is Islam is the religion
that we believe Adam, Noah, Isaac, David, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad
(peace be upon them all) had. Why do I say so? Because Islam is an Arabic word
that means: Submission to one God. And we believe all the Prophets believed in
One God, but they had different laws from God.
Jesus, in Islam, is among the most
respected men. He is a Prophet and not the son of God. Christians
say that only through Jesus there’s salvation, but to show you that it’s not
true, the fact that the nations before Jesus, there was believers who believed
in God although they did not believe in Jesus because he was not born yet.
So the claim that Jesus said salvation is only through me would render the
nations before Jesus disbelievers; thus dwell in hell! but
that's only because people misquoted Jesus in the bible.
Trinity is another belief that Christians
introduced to their faith, to explain their claim that Jesus, for being a man
without a father, they said he is the Son of God, or God himself. We, Muslims, say that God is able to do anything he wills and he
is not in need of any of his creations and that he is clear from any
imperfection. He is not in need of a son, he has no
partners in Godhood. We believe that Jesus was holy, but not a part of God, or
God himself. His holiness and his miracles proved his Prophethood
and that he is truly a messenger from God to people. Those who don’t believe in
God, and in Jesus as a Prophet are considered
disbelievers. All the Prophets had miracles, not only Jesus, and none are parts
of God nor Sons of God. Prophet Adam had no father and
no mother, yet he is not a God nor part of God.
We know for sure that trinity did not
exist when Jesus was not born, therefore after Jesus was born, we know that
Trinity was introduced into religion claiming that he is one of 3 Gods that
make up one God.. and on top
of all of that, they claim that this human being who came from Mary, (Jesus) is
God, and that he was killed by the Jews for people’s sins!. But that cannot be
true for the many reasons:
1.
Firstly because God
created Jesus, and he existed before Jesus and before all the creations God
existed.
2.
Secondly, God created
Jesus from virgin Mary as a miracle showing people that Jesus is the messenger
from God, so obey his orders, not worship him! Rather worship his creator and
his God (Allah).
3.
Thirdly, how would be
sound to claim that Jesus was killed for people’s sins? When every human is
accountable for his own deeds?
4.
Fourthly, would it be
fair to claim that God killed Jesus because of my Sins? Would you be a fair
person to punish your daughter because of your sons
mistakes? No, and certainly God is just and fair. God does not need to kill in
order to forgive sins. God orders for something to be and it is.
The claim that Jews killed God (Jesus)
shows that God is weak! Such attributes cannot be attributed to God. There are
more reasons to show that whatever is written in the bible today has been
tampered by man. The true belief is that God existed when there was nothing, he existed before time and before place and before
humans. He created the humans with an intellect to know the truth. He sent the
Prophets to warn people from the evil and falsehood and giving good tidings for
those who believe properly in God and in his Prophets, that their reward would
be in Paradise.
If one believed and said that: God is
one, he has no partners, and he is the creator of all creations, and that Moses
and Jesus and Muhammad are Prophets of God (Allah) then you are a Muslim. And
so I advise you sincerelyto do become a Muslim, a
believer, not only in Jesus as a Prophet, but in all the Prophets of God
starting with Prophet Adam, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and ending with Muhammad
peace be upon them.
I ask God to guide us to the correct path.
Ameen.
