DANISH CARTOONS
\n<\/span>& CHRISTIAN CRITICS<\/span><\/p>\n

Mohammad a terrorist<\/i><\/strong> 1<\/span><\/sup>:<\/i> Mohammad slaying enemies to end persecution and aggression could hardly be terrorism; even without measuring it against the Biblical slaying of \u201cboth man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass,\u201d to occupy their lands\u2013(Joshua 6:21; Deut; 7:1-2; Josh. 10:40; 12:6). Significantly, Joshua and the Israelites were not persecuted by these Canaanites, etc; nor forced into exile as Mohammad and his followers were. From the inception Mohammad and his followers were victims of persecution and aggression. There is hardly a person, be he victim or villain, that would not take the upper hand against his enemy when the opportunity arises. To wield the blade against perpetrators of injustice is not terrorism. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Unlike Jesus who prayed that his enemies be forgiven, Mohammad actually forgave his enemies, as evidenced upon his triumph at Makkah. He forgave even the horrid Hind, the woman of stark hatred, who cut open the body of his loving uncle, Hamza, as he lay martyred on the battlefield of Uhud, pulled out \u201chis liver\u201d and \u201cbegan to chew\u201d it.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Mohammad who taught\/practiced dealing justly (Qur\u2019an 2:279, 5:8); not to rob men their dues (26:183); to give justice even if it be against one\u2019s self, parents, kins, or whether he be poor or rich (4:135; 4:58; 5:8), encourages feeding the needy and the poor, free the captives, help those in debt, care for the orphans, the wayfarer, and to free slaves (9:60, 2:177), not to act corruptly in the earth or make mischief (26:183); not to transgress, or aid in sin and aggression (2:190; 5:2), to restrain anger and forgive (3:133), to fight on behalf of the oppressed (4:75); because All\u0101h loves the just, and because He commands justice and the doing of good, and forbids injustice (60:8, 16:90)\u2013could not<\/i> be a \u201cterrorist\u201d or \u201cdevil.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Mohammad who liberated woman\u2013(2:187; 4:19-22); exalts her\u2013(4:1; 9:71-72); gives her equality with man in financial, property, moral and spiritual matters\u2013(4:32, 7-10, 176-177; 3:195; 33:35; 4:124; 16:97; 43:70); honors her\u2013(4:1); made her a gar-ment to man and he is her garment\u2013(2:187); given her rights similar to those against her\u2013(2:228); made her a protector of man as he is her protector\u2013(9:71); and established her as a source of peace, comfort,\u00a0\u00a0 love and compassion\u2013(7:189; 30: 21)\u2013could not be a \u201cterrorist\u201d and \u201cdevil.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 If Mohammad was a \u201cterrorist\u201d and \u201cdevil\u201d the world can greatly benefit from his \u2018terrorism\u201d and \u2018evil.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

Mohammad\u2019s example of love opposite to that of Jesus and Moses <\/strong><\/i>2<\/span><\/sup>While all prophets were righteous, and taught according to their time and circumstances. (Biblically). Moses\u2019 \u201ceye for an eye,\u201d relegating woman and daughter to servility and bondage, and enslaving heathens; and Jesus\u2019 selling garments to buy swords; ordering that his<\/i> enemies be slain; viewing non-Jews as \u201cdogs\u201d and \u201cswine\u201d and speaking in parables<\/i><\/strong> to keep them in darkness and destruction are hardly examples (or religions) of \u201clove\u201d but rather examples (and religions) of naked hate. (Gen. 3:16; Ex. 21:7; Lev. 25:44; Matt. 5:39; Luke. 22:36; Matt. 5:44, 18:22; Luke 19:27; Matt. 10:34; Matt. 7:6; 15:26; Mark 4:10-12).<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Unlike Jesus who prayed for forgiveness for his enemies, Mohammad not only prayed for but forgave his enemies; and gave liberty, justice and God\u2019s Message clearly <\/i><\/strong>to all.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0That Mohammad\u2019s example was \u201copposite\u201d of love is not borne out by his precepts and practice (already noted above). <\/span><\/p>\n

Mohammad forgave his captive enemies!
\n<\/span>Jesus ordered that his enemies
\n<\/span>be brought and slain!<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 There is none that can equal Mohammad\u2019s \u201cexample of love,\u201d peace, and forgiveness. Mohammad who brought to mankind truth, knowledge, wisdom, and reason; peace, love, hope, and mercy; and moral, spiritual, and intellectual ascendancy is man\u2019s Benefactor, as All\u0101h, God, instructed him to inform us in His Qur\u2019an 7:158:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSay: O mankind, surely I (Mohammad)<\/i> am
\n<\/span>the Messenger of Allah to you all,
\n<\/span>of Him, Whose is\u00a0\u00a0 the kingdom of the heavens
\n<\/span>and the earth.
\n<\/span>There is no god but He;
\n<\/span>He gives life and causes death.
\n<\/span>So believe in Allah and His Messenger (Mohammad),
\n<\/i><\/span>the Ummi <\/span>(unschooled)<\/i> Prophet who believes
\n<\/span>in Allah and His words, and
\n<\/span>follow him so that you may be guided aright.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Mohammad (as noted elsewhere) is the Benefactor of Jesus also, having cleared him and his mother of the \u201ccalumnies\u201d against them. <\/span><\/p>\n

(Jews and Christians who consider Ishmael as being of tarnished birth, because his mother, Hagar, is viewed as a \u201cbondswoman,\u201d must [as noted under ISHMAEL<\/span>] consider the lineage of the prophets and son of God, respectively, which they follow. The Bible says that Jesus came through David who came through Judah who came through Jacob who came through Isaac who came from Abraham and Sarah; and as the Bible says, David committed adultery with Bathsheba; Judah committed adultery with his daughter-in-law, Tamarr; Jacob \u201cwent in unto\u201d his wife\u2019s handmaids, Bilhah and Zilpah; and Isaac\u2019s mother, Sarah, was also his father\u2019s step-sister; and according to the Bible such a union as that between Abraham and Sarah, through which Isaac was born, is an unholy union).\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 That the Bible\/Christianity is the religion of love is fanciful. We often hear such musical Christian claims as \u201cuniversal\u201d brotherhood, love, spirit, values, teachings, tolerance, mercy, forgiveness, and egalitarianism. Belief is not to be confused with facts. As noted, t<\/span>he religion that stamps others \u201cdogs\u201d and \u201cswine,\u201d enslaves \u201cheathen,\u201d views woman as transgressor and defiler of man, subjugates wife and views her as an object of carnal release, relegate daughters into bondage, commands enemies be brought and slain, vilifies opposers as enemies, and prevents others from knowing God \u201clest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them<\/i><\/strong><\/span>\u201d<\/strong><\/span> is on no moral or spiritual throne to make such lofty claims\u2013(Matt. 7:6; 15:26;<\/span> Lev. 25:44; 1 Tim 2:11-14; Rev. 14:4; Gen. 3:16 and 1Cor, 7:1-2; Ex. 21:7.; Luke 19:27; Matt. 12:30; Mark 4:9-12). <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Whatever fruits of bliss the Christian woman is enjoying did not come from any tree planted by Christ, but from the crops of modern culture. Jesus had nothing to say on behalf of the Slave, the Woman and the Orphan. That, he left for the Comforter, Mohammad the magnanimous, to do. Mohammad extricated Woman from the bog of degradation and sat her aloft on the throne of honor and left her nothing for which to strive; Mohammad liberated the Slave from the shackles of servitude and placed in his grasp the scepter of regality; Mohammad raised the Orphan from the dust of despair and sat him on the cushion of hope. Mohammad is the only Benefactor Woman, Slave, and Orphan have known. <\/span><\/p>\n

(Commenting on Christian claim that Jesus \u201chas given to the world the grand doctrine of universal brotherhood,\u201d Khwaja Kamal-ud-Din notes in his Open Letters To The Bishops of Salisbury & London<\/i>:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe quotation reminds me of the oft-repeated phrases- \u201cChristian spirit,\u201d \u201cChristian morals,\u201d \u201cChristian teachings,\u201d etc.\u2013which always come to the aid of the adherents of Christianity when they seek to claim such of these things for themselves as appeal to them for the time being, though they fail to find them in their Scriptures. Jesus was a Prophet, and can be believed to have possessed good and noble qualities and to have taught those things. But it is, after all, a belief, and should not be confused with facts. His teachings, as narrated in the Bible, cannot be taken as supplying a complete religion. Moreover, he himself admits that he did not give the whole truth\u2013(St John xvi). On the other hand, if the Christian spirit is that which can be inferred from the spirit of Christ’s Church, it is not such as to do credit to that Church\u2019s founder. The beautiful of yesterday is the ugly of to-day; which things being so, it is hard to define the Christian spirit. The phrase, as used from time to time, seems to be sufficiently plastic to accord with any and every condition. Whatever appears to be desir\u00adable for the time being is at once claimed under one or other of these convenient phrases. The spirit of Christ may be taken to comprehend everything: but his own Church, though filled with the Holy Ghost, as they believe, has ever remained too dense to appreciate it. Her spirit has, throughout the ages, been anything but meekness, mercy and long-suffering. For about seventeen centuries the Creed of Saint Athanasius has been sung and said on the Holy Feasts, under the authority of the Church. Does that Creed reflect the spirit of Christ, when it evinces a universal, damnatory spirit at its very outset, where it says: \u201cwithout doubt he shall perish ever-lastingly\u201d? To-day the laity come forward to denounce it and demand its elimination from the Book of Common Prayer. The new house of laity of the Church of England met recent-ly at Church House, Westminster, to conclude its deliberations on the proposed measure for the revision of the Prayer Book. Among other things\u00ad\u2013 <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMr. C. Marston moved an amendment to leave out the words \u2018which faith, except everyone do keep whole and undefiled, without doubt he shall perish everlastingly,\u2019 from the Athanasian Creed. He said he did not propose to eliminate the Creed altogether, but he wanted to take out of it the most terrible sentence which he believed had ever appeared in all history\u2013and this in a book which pretended to supply the gospel of salvation of sinners. The Athanasian Creed was com\u00adposed in an age that was comparatively reckless of human life; and it was put into our Prayer Book in its present form at a time when recklessness of human life was still very much to the front.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSir George King said he thought most of the members in charge considered that it was no business of the House to alter the creeds. There was a great deal to be said by way of explanation on matters which apparently were misunderstood by some people. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSir Edward Clarke said the Athanasian Creed. had spoiled the happiness of services for him on the great festivals of the Church for years and years. \u2018I have never said it,\u2019 he added, \u2018and would never dream of saying it. It has been a distress to me to hear choirs singing at the top of their voices these awful words, which I do not believe, and which I am sure ought not to be in our service.’<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSir Robert Williams said he thought it was quite time the laity \u00admade their protest against the use of these damnatory clauses.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMr. Marston\u2019s amendment was carried. The question, however, remains open, and will come up before the House for final approval.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The damnatory clause is doomed now, seeing that the protest against it comes from influential quarters among the laity. Similar protests got rid of a certain notorious psalm in the days of the war. But is it the spirit of Christ, or the spirit of modern civilization, that cries out against such cruel expressions? If it is the former, it has remain-ed dormant for centuries, and its revival is simply to pamper the spirit of all-sufficiency. Candidly speaking, there is very little in the teachings of Jesus to meet the ups and downs of life. To make it elastic to suit every-thing and anything is simply to fish out authority for our deeds, no matter what their merits may be. But for such free interpretations the world would have been saved from the countless cruelties committed by the Church in the name of Jesus.<\/span><\/p>\n

In fact, nothing could in decency be claimed as Christian verity if it be not laid down in clear terms in the sayings of Jesus. If the offending phrase in the Athana-sian Creed has been allowed to remain for centuries in the Book of Common Prayer, is not a man of indepen-dent views justified in classing the spirit of Christ as identical with that of indifference to human life? (pp.78-86).<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Jesus says \u201cLove thine enemies\u201d\u2013(Matt. 5:44), but it was Mohammad who gave shape to \u201clove thine enemies.\u201d After decades of persecution he forgave his rabid enemies on his triumph at Makkah. Jesus was in no commanding position to forgive\u2013he called on God<\/i> to forgive\u2013(Luke 23:34). Love also has a stern face. Forgiveness to incorrigible offenders is not love and mercy: it is stupidity. If governments were to turn the other cheek society would be over-run by criminals. Wise people know there are times to give the other cheek and times to take an eye.<\/span><\/p>\n

(Regarding the adulteress\u2013(John 8:3-11)\u2013Jesus did not forgive her: she did not do any wrong to Jesus to need his forgiveness. All he said was he did not \u201ccondemn\u201d her. As Jesus was the one \u201cwithout sin\u201d he \u201cfirst\u201d should have \u201ccast a stone at her.\u201d In letting her go Jesus violated the law that adulteress be stoned, See <\/span>JESUS-& THE ADULTERSS<\/span>). <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 That Jesus loves \u201cus\u201d is a stretch, marathon-long. Jesus loved his <\/i>people, Jews. It is not love, mercy, and forgiveness to slay enemies opposed to rule, view others as \u201cdogs\u201d and \u201cswine,\u201d and to speak in parables so they would not understand and be forgiven. <\/span><\/p>\n

It is Mohammad, being mercy to all creatures\/nations, as he demonstrated, is the one who loves \u201cus.\u201d Mohammad forgave thousands of his captives upon his victory at Makkah; Jesus had no captives to forgive. <\/span>Jesus never prayed for the forgiveness of the deceased: he tells people to let their dead bury the dead\u2013(Matt; 8:22. Jesus raising Lazarus is not \u201cpraying\u201d for him\u2013John 11:41-44). Mohammad not only prayed for the deceased Muslim, but prayed for the idolater; saying : \u201cif I knew that if I asked forgiveness for him more than seventy times, he would be forgiven, I would ask it for more times than that\u201d\u2013(Qur\u2019an 9:84, 113. Bokhari Vol. 6, # 193, 194). Such is the expanse of the mercy and magnanimity of this wonderful man Mohammad. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 There is none in history to equal Mohammad\u2019s love, mercy, tolerance, and forgiveness. There never will be. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 The expanse of All\u0101h\u2019s love, mercy, and compassion is molded in one compact statement: <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSay: O My servants who have sinned
\n<\/span>against their souls,
\n<\/span>despair not of the mercy of All\u0101h;
\n<\/span>surely All\u0101h forgives sins altogether.
\n<\/span>He is indeed the Forgiving, the Merciful\u201d
\n<\/span>(Qur\u2019an 14:10; 39:53).<\/span><\/p>\n

It is Islam that is the \u201cReligion of Love\u201d<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Mohammad and the Beauty Contestant<\/i><\/strong>3<\/span><\/sup>: (Regarding the Miss World Beauty Pageant of December 2002, one Nigerian paper is reported to have \u201cspeculated\u201d that the Prophet Mohammad \u201cwould likely\u201d have taken one of the beauty contestants as \u201chis wife.\u201d Wonder if the writer had thought that perhaps Jesus, or Moses, or Solomon \u201cwould likely\u201d have taken one of the contestants as \u201chis wife.\u201d Seems that after more than 1400 years, Christians are ever obsessed with Mohammad\u2019s \u201cparticularly active sex life\u201d).<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cBefore Islam, Woman was treated as a chattel. No religion or civilization had as yet raised her to the status that should have been her birthright. She was regarded as an evil but necessary appendage, and she received the worst treatment of all from Christianity\u201d4<\/span><\/sup>.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Islam extricated Woman from the pit of degradation in which Paganism, Hinduism, Judaism, and Christian had her mired in and sat her aloft on the pinnacle of honor.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 The teachings of Islam that Woman is of the same essence as man, is his garment as he is hers, has the same rights on him as he has on her, that she has three degrees of excellence over man, and is the symbol of purity and the gateway to Paradise, is the most highly decorated crown Woman can have. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 If Mohammad would have married a World Beauty Contestant <\/span><\/p>\n

Mohammad would not only have
\n<\/span><\/i><\/span>been capable enough to husband
\n<\/span><\/i>a World Beauty Contestant,
\n<\/span><\/i><\/span>he would have rendered to her
\n<\/span><\/i><\/span>the supreme and invaluable service
\n<\/span><\/i>of robing her a Muslim.<\/span><\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

(That the Bible\/Christianity ameliorates the lot of woman is fanciful.\u00a0<\/span>Whereas All\u0101h says that He created women to be our mates and has put love and compassion between us, and that men and women are friends and protectors of the other, Christianity says that man was not created for the woman but that woman was created for the man: \u201cNeither was the man created for the woman; BUT THE WOMAN FOR THE MAN\u2013(1 Cor. 11:9). And that woman is an object for sex: \u201cIt is GOOD for a MAN NOT TO TOUCH A WOMAN. Nevertheless, TO AVOID FORNICATION, let every man have his own wife\u201d\u2013(1 Cor 7:1-2). <\/span><\/p>\n

Christianity condemns Woman to a life of subjection to her husband: \u201cUnto the woman He (God) said \u2026.thy desire shall be to THY HUSBAND, and HE SHALL RULE OVER THEE\u201d\u2013(Gen. 3:16). <\/span><\/p>\n

Christianity condemns woman as the transgressor: \u201cAnd Adam was not deceived BUT THE WOMAN BEING DECEIVED WAS IN THE TRANSGRESSION\u201d\u2013(1 Tim. 2:14. All\u0101h tells us that both Adam and Eve were deceived; and that they were forgiven\u2013Qur\u2019an 2:36-37; 20:115-122). <\/span><\/p>\n

Christianity sells woman into bondage: \u201cAnd if a man SELL HIS DAUGHTER to be a maidservant\u201d\u2013(Exod. 21:7) <\/span><\/p>\n

Christianity says that only man is the glory of God: \u201che is the IMAGE AND GLORY OF GOD: but the WOMAN IS THE GLORY OF THE MAN. For the man is NOT of the woman; but the WOMAN OF THE MAN\u201d; \u201cNeither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man\u201d\u2013(1 Cor. 11:7-9). But All\u0101h tells us man and woman were created from the same essence and for the other\u2013Qur\u2019an 4:1; 30:21; has <\/span>estab-lished marriage between them\u201325:54; 16:72; 24:32; has put love and compassion between them, and that she is a source of peace and comfort\u20137:189; 30:21; that they are friends and garments to the other (to protect, comfort, beautify, and conceal faults)\u20139:71; 2:187; and that they have mutual rights on the other\u20132:228).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Christianity demands that wives submit to their hus-bands, and reverence their husbands as they reverence God: \u201cWIVES, SUBMIT YOURSELVES UNTO YOUR OWN HUSBANDS, AS UNTO THE LORD\u201d \u201cAs the Church is subject unto Christ, SO LET THE WIVES BE TO THEIR OWN HUSBANDS IN EVERY THING<\/span><\/i><\/strong>\u201d \u2013 \u201cAnd the wife see that SHE REVERENCE<\/span> <\/i><\/strong>HER HUSBAND\u201d\u2013(Ephesians 5:22-23, 33). <\/span><\/p>\n

Christianity mandates that servants obey their masters as they obey Christ (there are no provisions for their emancipation): \u201cServants, be OBEDIENT to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with FEAR AND TREMBLING, in singleness of your heart, AS UNTO CHRIST\u201d\u2013 \u201cServants OBEY IN ALL<\/span> <\/i><\/strong>THINGS your masters, according to the flesh, not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God\u201d \u2013(Ephesians 6:5; Colossians 3:22). <\/span><\/p>\n

Christianity demands that wives learn in silence and subjection: \u201cLet the woman learn in SILENCE with ALL<\/span> <\/i><\/strong>SUBJECTION. But I suffer not a woman TO TEACH, NOR TO USURP AUTHORITY OVER THE MAN but to be IN SILENCE\u2013(1 Tim. 2:11-12); <\/span><\/p>\n

And here is the classic woman-hater. Christianity condemns woman as the \u201cDEFILER\u201d of men.<\/span><\/i> Speaking about the 144, 000 who will sit with Jesus (who will be JEWS<\/span><\/span>\u2013non-Jews note well<\/span>\u2013and will all be MEN<\/span><\/span>) the Bible says: \u201cbut the hundred and forty and four thou-sand, which were redeemed from the earth. These are they which were NOT DEFILED WITH WOMEN<\/span><\/span><\/i>;<\/span> for they are VIRGINS\u201d\u2013(Rev: 14:3-4. This is the lunacy Christians are clamoring to enthrone above Islam; and praying for Muslims and the world to accept. God created man and woman to \u201cfill the earth\u201d and instilled in them passions for companionship to effect this; but Christians view this Divine scheme as sacrilege.).<\/span><\/p>\n

Surely, to place women in subjection and bondage, to view her as an object of sex, as the transgressor and as \u2018defiler of men\u2019 are not expressions of \u201clove.\u201d And Christ as he declared, came NOT TO CHANGE THE LAW but TO FULFIL<\/span><\/strong> IT\u2013(Matt. 5:17).\u00a0(See\u00a0Christianity-women<\/a><\/span>). <\/span><\/p>\n

As stated, Christianity which relegates woman and daughter to servility and bondage, enslaves heathens, views non-Jews as \u201cdogs\u201d and \u201cswine,\u201d establishes woman as \u201ctransgressor\u2019 and \u201cdefiler\u201d of man, and speaks in parables to keep non-Jews in darkness and destruction is not a religion of \u201clove\u201d but a religion of naked hatred of women and non-Jews.<\/span><\/p>\n

As stated, whatever lofty status the Christian Woman is enjoying is due only to the dictates of modern culture. Whereas, as already pointed out, Islam has ennobled Woman, liberated her, and given her rights unparalleled in the history of religions. She has nothing more for which to strive. <\/span><\/p>\n

Islam is the Great Liberator of Woman!
\n<\/span>Islam is the only Liberator Woman has known!<\/span><\/p>\n

All\u0101h\u2013a different God from the God of Christians<\/i><\/strong> 5<\/span><\/sup>: That All\u0101h is not the same God as that of Christians, in one respect this is an accurate view. All\u0101h is the God Who was not<\/i> in the womb and came out the vagina; All\u0101h is the God Who does not <\/i>need \u201csome satisfaction\u201d to forgive sins; All\u0101h is the God Who does not <\/i>use a scapegoat (Jesus) to give sinners a free ride into Paradise. The Christian\u2019s God is not only incomparable to the Merciful God of Muslims, the Christian\u2019s God is even mercy-less<\/i> than the Hindu God. Whereas the God of karma and reincarnation gives one exactly what his deeds merit: \u2018an equal and opposite reaction;\u2019 the God of inherited sin and vicarious atonement is doubly unjust: loading the sin of one man (Adam) onto the backs of all men (even onto the still-born) then shifting the sins of all men onto the head of one innocent and sinless man (Jesus). A devilish, despicable scheme.\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

That All\u0101h is the same God of the (original) Bible, \u2018Abdul Ahad Dawud (the former Rev. David Benjamin Keldani) ex-plains in his Muhammad In The Bible<\/i>: \u201cIf the Christian priests and theologians knew their Scriptures in the original Hebrew instead of in translations as the Muslims read their Qur\u2019an in its Arabic text, they would clearly see that All\u0101h is the same ancient Semitic name of the Supreme Being who revealed and spoke to Adam and all the prophets\u201d\u2013(pp. 12-13). The Qur\u2019an speaks of hundreds of prophets\u2013seeing that All\u0101h raised up prophets among all peoples\u2013(4:164; 10:47; 16:36)\u2013though only a few are named. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 As Christians believe Jesus is God, it is Christians that do not worship the God of Abraham. <\/span>Christians and Jews use the same Old Testament. If All\u0101h is a different God from that of Christians because Muslims do not accept Jesus as God or son of God, Christians may as well throw their Bibles into the fire, because Jews not only reject Jesus as God, son of God, and prophet of God but regard him as \u201cbastard,\u201d and regard his mother, Mary\u2013the Christian\u2019s Mother of God\u2013as \u201cadulteress.\u201d (The Prophet Mohammad repudiated these \u201cJewish calumnies\u201d).<\/span><\/p>\n

Islam\u2013\u201ca very evil and wicked\u201d religion<\/i><\/strong>6<\/span><\/sup>. If violent acts by some Muslims make Islam a \u201cvery evil\u201d and \u201cwicked\u201d religion, then, for its followers who were Crusaders, Colonialists, and Fascists Christianity is the most violent, \u201cvery evil\u201d and \u201cwick-ed\u201d religion: having colored Jerusalem red with the blood of Jews and Muslims; instituted Inquisitions; \u201cmassacred\u201d Ethiopia; savaged Libya; slaughtered one another in World War II; killed \u201csix million\u201d Jews; decimated the natives; enslaved the Africans; slaughtered Bosnians and Kosovars; massacred Protestants on St. Bartholomew\u2019s Day; ravaged the intellectuals\u2013Galileo, Bruno, Hypatia and Vanini\u2013and committed \u201csexual abuse\u201d of children.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Islam which teaches that all men are created equal (Qur\u2019an 95:4), we are made into different tribes and nations that we may know one another (49:13), we are to be judged not by our race, color or nationality but by our deeds (6:133), the noblest ones are those who are righteous (49:13, 98:7), to return evil with that which is better\u2013(23:96), because All\u0101h God loves the just, and because All\u0101h is aware of what you do (5:45, 4:135)\u2013could not be a \u201cvery evil and wicked religion.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Islam, the religion that stands on the firmament of peace and goodness, could not be a very \u201cevil and wicked religion.\u201d In fact, Jesus\u2019 teaching can be shown to be very \u201cevil and wicked;\u201d only a few of his teachings need mentioning: <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 (1) Jesus demands: \u201cthose mine enemies which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me\u201d\u2013(Luke 19:27). If such a decree was to be implemented, given that about eighty percent of the world does not believe Jesus to be God, Son of God, and vicarious atoner, and presumably would oppose his rule under such dictates, some four billion people today would have to be slain. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 (2) Jesus instructs: \u201cAgree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison\u201d \u2013(Matt. 5:25). So if a Christian\u2019s adversary has the option of sending him to prison, threatens him to agree with him to frame an innocent person for murder, the Christian is to \u201cagree\u201d with his adversary \u201cquickly\u201d and send this innocent person to the gallows. Those Christian nations that feared Hitler and even supported the Germans, were only following Jesus\u2019 precept to \u201cagree\u201d with their \u201cadversary\u201d. And those Christian individuals that handed over the Jews to be exterminated, should be honored for obeying Jesus\u2019 instructions to \u201cagree\u201d with their adversary \u201cquickly\u201d. (A doctrine that encourages supporting evil for self-protection could not be one of truth and justice).<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 (3) Jesus regarded Gentiles as \u201cdogs\u201d and \u201cswine\u201d\u2013(Matt. 7:6, 15:26); and he says: \u201cHe that is not with me is against me\u201d (sounds familiar today?)\u2013(Matt. 12:30)\u2013here we have people, who are the \u201cimage\u201d of God, some of whom may be God-fearing and otherwise humanitarian, are insulted because of their nationality. Jesus excludes them from his circle as being \u201cdogs\u201d and \u201cswine,\u201d then he expects them to be with him; and when they are not with him, not by choice but by rejection, they are further castigated as being \u201cagainst\u201d him\u2013they are forced to be against him and are then charged as being \u201cagainst\u201d him (talk about being victim of a vicious circle: a real \u201ccatch 22\u201d). That a person \u201cis not\u201d with Jesus does not necessarily mean that that person is \u201cagainst\u201d him. There are perhaps millions\u2013atheists, for example\u2013who do not believe in Jesus as a man from God, yet they are not against him (in the sense that they would ridicule him). A person or country can be neutral. As noted above, Jesus required that his enemies be brought to him and slain\u2013(Luke 19:27). If such a view \u2013 \u201cHe that is not with me is against me\u201d\u2013was to be implemented, the Jews, of whom the majority do not believe in him, as well as the atheists who do not believe in him, and are not allowing his rule, these would logically be considered as being \u201cagainst\u201d him and thus, his \u201cenemies;\u201d and since Jesus directed that all his \u201cenemies\u201d be slain, the Jews and atheists would all have to be slain. Add Muslims, who would not submit to his rule as God\/son of God, to this bizarre list and the earth will be rivers of blood of some two billion people, or more.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 (4) Devils about to be exorcised by Jesus request that they be cast into \u201can herd of many swine feeding;\u201d Jesus obliged the devils, \u201cand, behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently down a steep place into the sea, and perished in the waters\u201d\u2013(Matt. 8:28-33)\u2013here, Jesus not only showed disregard for the property (the swine) of the swine herders, but caused the death of dumb, innocent animals. (Not to mention the wholesale slaughtering in the Old Testament, which is an inheritance of Christians, where not even the \u201cass\u201d was spared from \u201cthe edge of the sword\u201d\u2013Joshua 6:21. And as Jesus is claimed to be \u201cGod,\u201d Jesus could hardly then be eulogized as Prince of Peace, a \u201cransom\u201d for sins and meek and mild.<\/span><\/p>\n

(The above is not to deride Jesus; but to dispel myths and misconceptions about Islam, and, seemingly, bigotry).<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 It is Christianity that is the \u201cevil and wicked religion.\u201d Christianity -Trinity, inherited sin and vicarious atonement-<\/span> has no Divine foundation, no prophetic foundation, no logical foundation, and are repugnant to reason; Christianity is evil, intolerant, and backward; Christians lie on God, lie on Jesus, they blame the Devil. (See\u00a0<\/span>Christianity-a fake<\/a>;\u00a0Christianity-lies, evil, hate<\/a>;\u00a0Jesus-inherited sin to ascension<\/a><\/span>).<\/p>\n

Islam\u2013can become theologically evil <\/i><\/strong>7<\/span><\/sup>:<\/i> \u201c\u201cIslam becomes theologically evil when its leaders do not give those they control the liberty to explore for themselves the truth about God.\u201d\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

(It is doubtful that Christian shepherds give the flocks they control \u201cthe liberty to explore for themselves the truth about God,\u201d but rather require their sheep to follow Church dogmas without question.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Significantly, Pope Benedict XVI, to appease Jewish objection, \u201cordered\u201d Bishop Richard Williamson to recant his anti-holocaust statement: the Bishop is reported as saying, \u201c\u201cI believe that the historical evidence is strongly against \u2013is hugely against\u2013 6 million Jews having been deliberately gassed in gas chambers as a deliberate policy of Adolph Hitler\u2026I believe there were no gas chambers.\u201d\u201da<\/span> <\/sup>[Notably, the Bishop believes \u201chistorical evidence\u201d<\/span> is against the popular view on the holocaust\u201d].<\/span> The Bishop is also reported as saying that \u201conly 200,000 to 300,000 Jews were killed during the war and that none had been gassed.\u201db<\/span><\/sup><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 If Christians are not allowed to have (and voice) their views on secular matters consider how much more they would be restricted in Divine matters (especially those that oppose Christian teachings).<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 On a secular note, rather than the Pope trying to shut the Bishop up, the civilized and intelligent (and democratic) approach would be to have the Bishop substantiate his views; as well as those who claim that \u201c6 million Jews\u201d were gassed to provide their proof and let the public decide who is truthful and who is liar). <\/span><\/p>\n

That \u201cIslam becomes theologically evil when its leaders do not give those they control the liberty to explore for themselves the truth about God.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Muslims have the Qur\u2019an and Sunnah<\/i> of the Prophet \u201cto explore for themselves the truth about God.\u201d Leaders can bondage the body of the people but not the mind. Islam which teaches not to rob men of their dues (Qur\u2019an 26:183); to deal justly (2:279, 5:8); give justice against self, parents, kins, poor or rich (4:135; 4:58; 5:8); not to act corruptly or make mischief (26:183); not to help in sin, nor incite transgression (5:2); instead of retaliation reconcile, be patient and forgive (42:39-43; 24:22; 3:133); men are created equal, the noblest being the righteous (4:1; 95:4; 49:13, 98:7); return evil with better (23:96); for All\u0101h loves the doer of good and the dutiful (2:195; 3:75)\u2013cannot become \u201ctheologically evil.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 But Christianity that destines woman to servility\u2013(Gen. 3:16; 1Tim. 2:11); frames her as transgressor and defiler of man\u2013(1 Tim. 2:14; Rev. 14:4); makes her wife \u201cto avoid fornication\u201d\u2013(1 Cor. 7:2); enslaves \u201cheathen\u201d\u2013(Lev.25:44); bondage daughters \u2013(Ex. 21:7); regards disagreers as enemies\u2013(Matt. 12:30); slay opposers to rulership\u2013(Luke 19:27); and speak in parables lest Gentiles be forgiven and saved\u2013(Mark 4:11-12), is \u201ctheologically evil.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Regarding the First World War, Khwaja Kamal-ud-Din points out: <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThough the war was engrossing enough to claim all at-tention, yet the general slaughter and sanguinary devastations of humanity aroused, in many a mind, feelings of hatred and contempt towards certain portions of the Church service. This human slaughter was, after all, only a materialization of some of the Psalms which are sung in the Church, and which form a part of the Book of Common Prayer. <\/i>It aroused a spirit of revolt in many quarters against the inclusion of such Psalms in the Prayer Book; clergy and laity alike made strenuous demands that these Psalms be expunged from the Prayer Book<\/i>. \u2026The committee lately formed for that purpose, in order to bring it up to modern requirements, have proposed the introduction of some new prayers\u2013one for industrial peace, one for election time, one for troubled consciences, one for good weather; in addition to which six of the Ten Commandments have been shortened. And what is the process by which these revisions and additions are to become part and parcel of Christianity? They have to pass through the House of the Bishops, the House of Clergy, the House of Laity, and finally to receive Parliamentary sanction, when they will attain full-fledged religious sanctity. This is how religion is coined in the West. Manufactured in the human mint, it is stamped with Divine authority. Such has been the history of Christianity all along.<\/span> A thing of human origin, it has failed to stand the test of time and experience, and has, of necessity, had to change its form from time to time, to readjust itself to changed conditions<\/i>.\u201d<\/span> 8<\/span><\/sup>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

It is Christianity that can, and did, become \u201ctheologically evil.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

Islam\u2013a violent religion <\/i><\/strong>9<\/span><\/sup>: Islam, <\/i>rooted in peace and submission to God, <\/i>and which teaches not to take a greater recompense than the injury suffered (Qur\u2019an 2:194; 16:126; 42: 40); instead of retaliation reconcile, be patient and forgive (42:39-43; 24: 22; 3:133); to return evil with better (23:96); to be merciful and forgiving (3:133); to fight only as long as there is persecution (2:193), and to make peace when the enemy desires (4:90; 8:61); for All\u0101h loves the doer of good, and the dutiful (2:195, 3:75)\u2013could not be a \u201cviolent\u201d religion. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 But Christianity that declares it came \u201cnot to send peace, but a sword\u201d\u2013(Matt. 10:34); instruct followers to sell garments and buy swords\u2013(Luke 22:36); view opposers as enemies\u2013(Matt. 12:30); and orders that enemies be slain\u2013(Luke 19:27)\u2013is a \u201cviolent\u201d religion. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Can Christians be \u201cloyal\u201d to God (to truth and justice?) <\/i> In Matthew 5:25 Jesus taught his followers to: \u201cAgree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison<\/i><\/strong>.\u201d It is doubtful that one who would \u201cagree\u201d with his \u201cadversary\u201d in unjust act(s) or situation(s) to save himself from being impri-soned could be \u201cloyal\u201d to truth and justice. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 God commands in the Bible: \u201cThou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour\u201d\u2013(Exodus 20:16); and Jesus says to \u201cagree with thine adversary quickly\u201d (which may include bearing false witness against your neighbor) lest \u201cthou be cast into prison.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0 Christians would then be in a dilemma in such a situation with an adversary, whether to abide by Jesus\u2019 teaching to \u201cagree with thine adversary\u201d and bear false witness, or to obey God\u2019s com-mand and be \u201cloyal\u201d to truth and justice (not to bear false witness). (If Jesus is God, as some Christians believe, God\/Jesus is giving contradictory instructions). <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 A Christian\u2019s Confession (of murder) to his priest is held to be confidential; yet God says that the killer is to be executed\u2013(Gen. 9:6; Ex. 21:12). This confidentiality is not in keeping with God\u2019s decree that the killer be executed.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Can Christian then be loyal to God? Clearly not.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 The religion whose followers cannot be loyal to God is the religion that can be a \u201cviolent religion.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

All\u0101h requires Muslims to send their sons \u201cto die\u201d for Him, whereas the God of Christianity sends His son to die for you<\/i><\/strong>10<\/span><\/sup>:<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Khwaja Kamal-ud-Din notes in his excellent book Open Letters To The Bishops Of Salisbury & London<\/i>:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI read in Dean Farrar\u2019s famous Life <\/i>that Christianity \u201cen\u00adnobled man, elevated woman, and lent a halo of innocence to the life of the child.\u201d When and where did Christianity accomplish these things before the modern times? Modern ideas and ideals have come from sources other than Christian\u00adity. A religion that teaches that every child is born in sin rather robs him of innocence than lends him a halo. These writers should know better and respect history more. They should think twice on the implications of the doctrines of their own religion before making such assertions. The Christian tenet of original sin involves an assumption which ennobles neither man nor child, neither can the principle of the Immaculate Conception elevate motherhood.\u201d (p. 71). <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 (It may be submitted that instead of lending the child a \u201chalo of innocence,\u201d the doctrine of inherited sin has fastened onto the child two little horns on his forehead and a barbed tail on his\/her behind).<\/span>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 All\u0101h is Omnipotent, Omniscient and Owner of the heavens and earth and everything within. There is nothing man can do to benefit God. Muslims give their lives in the service of All\u0101h, God. All\u0101h does not need the sons of Islam to die for Him; only that these sons are to be fearless Davids of honor against the cowardly Goliaths of injustice. All\u0101h does not need human blood (or animal\u2019s) in order to forgive sins as Christianity does. That Jesus died for sins is, as shown, a colossal myth.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 The God that would \u201csend\u201d an innocent person \u201cto die\u201d \u2013to be scape-goat\u2013<\/span> for sinners is a cruel and unjust God. All\u0101h, God, is \u201cgracious and merciful\u201d (expressed at least 113 times in the Qur\u2019an, at the beginning of every chapter, except the ninth).\u00a0\u00a0 It is the nature of All\u0101h, God, to be merciful: He has ordained mercy on Himself\u2013(Qur\u2019an 6:12); His mercy encompasses all things\u2013(Qur\u2019an 7:156); and He instructs His last and final Prophet, Mohammad to inform all men\u2013(Qur\u2019an 39:53):<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSay, O My servants who have sinned against
\n<\/span>their souls, despair not of the mercy of Allah;
\n<\/span>surely, Allah forgives all sins.
\n<\/span>Verily, He is Most Forgiving, Ever Merciful\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 All\u0101h, the God \u2013the Creator, Nourisher and Sustainer of all\u2013 Who addresses His servants in such noble, loving and com-passionate words hardly needs any reflecting on to grasp the expanse of His love and mercy and compassion. All\u0101h is the God of mercy and forgiveness, the God Who forgives without the need for any \u201csatisfaction.\u201d All\u0101h is so merciful that instead of punishing man (or an innocent one) for his sins, He invites man to forgive him those sins\u2013(Qur\u2019an 14:10) and rewards him for every good deed up to seven hundredfold\u2013(Bokhari, Vol. 1, ch. 32; and # 40). <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Compare All\u0101h to the God that requires some \u201csatisfaction\u201d\u2013the crucifying of an innocent man\u2013in order to forgive sins. Such a God is devoid of mercy and forgiveness. In fact, the God of vicarious atonement<\/i> is poorer in mercy than the God of karma<\/i>, Who gives to sinners an equal and opposite reaction\u2013though devoid of mercy and forgiveness, He does not need to be ap-peased, nor yet punish the innocent for the sinners. Khwaja Kamal-ud-Din points out in his Open Letters To The Bishops Of Salisbury & London: <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cJesus was the last of the series, brought on the pagan altar to popularize Christianity amongst the pagan world. \u00a0<\/i>The period of God-Incarnate is over. Christianity has proved the last chapter in the history of the Mystery cult. But a very poor one. The former cults had the beauty of originality in conception, the nicety of the flight of imagination. But the Church aped the old cult most slavishly and boorishly. She went so far as to steal word by word the whole pagan terminology. Almost all the names given to Jesus in the Church theology have been taken from the same source\u2013<\/i>(Khwaja has noted in his book The Sources of Christianity <\/i>some of these names, such as \u201cGod\u2019s First Begotten Son, the Intermediary between God and man;\u201d \u201cThe Good Shepherd;\u201d \u201cThe Bread of Life;\u201d \u201cSeated next to God;\u201d etc, p. 78). The Alpha and Omega of Bacchus was put into the mouth of Jesus to suit the theory of Logos\u2013another piece of literary larceny from Philo and others of the Alexandrian philosophy. The Qur\u2019an exposed it at a time when no other suspected it. It said: \u201cThe Christian says the Messiah is the son of God; these are the words of their mouth; they imitate the sayings of those who were pagan before; Allah destroyed them, now they are turned away\u201d (Qur\u2019an 9:30). Yes, God destroyed paganism through His Messengers, of whom Jesus was one, but it lived again through his followers; and lo! those who gave the name \u201cheathens\u201d to others became the same themselves.\u201d (pp. 25-26).<\/span><\/p>\n

Mary was not the consort of God
\n<\/span>so that her son, Jesus, should be son of God.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 To beget is to procreate. Those who ascribe the act of begetting to God\u2013(John 3:16)\u2013are ascribing the act of procreation to God. To ascribe the act of procreation to God \u2013moreover with a mortal whom He created\u2013 is blasphemy. Jesus says in Mark 3:29:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201che that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost
\n<\/span>hath never forgiveness,
\n<\/span>but is in danger of eternal damnation\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Allah, the God Who is so just and merciful as to invite us to forgive us our sins without need for any \u201csatisfaction\u201d would not punish an innocent man for the sins of others; much less would He require human blood sacrifice for the forgiveness of sins. Abdul Haque Vidyarthi notes:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe doctrine of the trinity was first introduced into the Christian church by a clergyman of Antioch named Theophilus. The doctrine so taught by that clergyman, and which since has been followed by others, is in brief, that there are three gods in one, to wit, God the Father, God the son, and God the holy ghost, all three in power, substance and eternity.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe clergy have ever held to this senseless God-dishonouring doctrine. \u2026 If you ask a clergyman what is meant by the trinity he says: \u201cThat is mystery.\u201d He does not know, and no one else knows, because it is false. Never was there a more deceptive doctrine advanced than that of the trinity.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt is a noticeable fact that in the church system the name of Jesus has been made more prominent than that of Jehovah God. The clergy have induced the people to pray to Mary the mother of Jesus and to worship her, thus giving woman honour equal with God. The names of Mary and Jesus are more often mentioned in the ecclesiastical systems than that of Jehovah God.\u201d11<\/span><\/sup> <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Catholics say Jesus is God<\/i> but Jehovah\u2019s Witnesses say Jesus is only the son of God<\/i>. Most Christians say that Jesus died for inherited<\/i><\/strong> sin but the Mormons say Jesus died only for committed <\/i><\/strong>sin. Yet Christians want everyone to follow Jesus. How can people follow Jesus when his followers themselves do not know whether he is God or only son of God, and whether he died for inherited sin or for committed sin? How can anyone follow such doctrines that has no Divine foundation, no prophetic foundation, no logical foundation, and are repugnant to reason? How can any one follow a man\/religion of such vague status? Khwaja Kamal-ud-Din points out\u00a0<\/i>in his revealing book, The Sources of Christianity<\/i>:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cthe religion now passing under the name of Jesus was never taught by him. Even the words of Jesus reported in the Gospel conform to this Qur\u2019anic truth (that Jesus would deny any claim to Divinity, Qur\u2019an 5:116-117, shown further on). He never claimed to be God. He would not allow his followers to be called after his name \u2013the name \u201cChristian\u201d was taken in the third century in the Council at Nice. He observed all the laws given through Moses and the patriarch of the house of Jacob.<\/span><\/p>\n

If we study the Gospel without reference to the writings of St. Paul, the words of Jesus do not substantiate the teaching of his Church to-day.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe deliberators of the Cambridge Conference of 1918 came to the same conclusion. They could not see the hand of Jesus in the superstructure of the Church so erected by St. Paul and his followers.\u201d(pp. 15, 16). <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 All\u0101h, God, admonishes Christians in the Qur\u2019an 4:171:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cO People of the Book, exceed not the limits
\n<\/span>in your religion nor speak anything about
\n<\/span>Allah, but the truth.
\n<\/span>The Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, is only
\n<\/span>a messenger of Allah and His word which
\n<\/span>He communicated to Mary and a mercy
\n<\/span>from Him. So believe in Allah and
\n<\/span>His messengers.
\n<\/span>And say not, Three (Trinity).
\n<\/span>Desist, it is better for you.
\n<\/span>Allah is only one God.
\n<\/span>Far be it from His glory to have a son.
\n<\/span>To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens
\n<\/span>and whatever is in the earth.
\n<\/span>And sufficient is Allah as having charge
\n<\/span>of affairs\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Christians are entombing the God Incarnate. Khwaja Kamal-ud-Din wrote: <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAccording to Modernism \u201cwe must absolutely jettison the traditional doctrine that Christ\u2019s personality was not human, but Divine\u2026\u201d Elsewhere we are told that Jesus believed in the Divinity of all men. The proposition here propounded appears to be that all men are Divine; Jesus is a man, therefore Jesus is Divine. He shares the Divinity of the race because he is human.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cImbue yourselves with Divine attributes,\u201d said the Last Teacher of Islam, and he made this dictum the watchword for moulding our lives on Islamic lines. We Muslims, no doubt, avoid words like \u201cIncarnation\u201d in our theology, inasmuch as they are misleading and tend to encourage polytheistic tendencies, but we believe in the infusion of moral influence by the Deity into men. We look to every man as a potential manifestation of God. The Divine influence is a universal dispensation! Every human being can become its recipient. \u2026. Thus it will appear that the Modernists are casting their belief in the Islamic mould.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cModernism has acquired a remarkable ascendancy in Germany. It has claimed the pick of the culture and ability of the Anglican Church. America is welcoming it, and in no long time it will rule Christendom. The traditional Christianity then will stand corrected of its biggest blunder. But the credit of the correction will go to Islam. To-day it is an established verity that Church theology was only an assimilation of Paganism;<\/span> what an irony of fate, that those who called others heathens should have turned out to be heathens themselves in their beliefs!<\/span> But the Qur\u2019an was the first to point it out to the world, when it said: \u201c\u2026and the Christians say: The Messiah is the son of Allah; these are the words of their mouths; they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before; Allah destroyed them; how they are turned away\u201d\u2013(Qur\u2019an 9:30).\u201d\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cTo-day, the Christian world has begun to realize that Jesus was only a man and one of the Chosen Ones of God who, from time to time have exhibited the Divine influence in the mould of their character; and the Qur\u2019an said the same some thirteen hundred years ago: \u201cThe Messiah, son of Mary, is but an apostle; apostles before him have indeed passed away\u201d\u2013(Qur\u2019an 5:75).\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cThe last Conference of Modernism (August, 1925) has dealt its final blow to the Church dogmas in rejecting the theory of \u201csin in nature,\u201d inasmuch as the doctrine of \u201csin by heritage\u201d is the very bed-rock of the Church faith, and if it is rejected, its sequel\u2013the Doctrine of Atonement, the Grace of the Blood, the Divinity of Jesus \u2013must, ipso facto<\/i>, go too. And in this respect\u2026.here again Islam was the first to deny the Christian doctrine, when it said that every child, when born, comes into the world with a pure and untainted nature.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 They must be on a fool\u2019s errand who seek to induce us to accept things rejected by their best men, and to reject those doctrines now accepted by their intellectually ad-vanced people<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

This all reminds me of Canon Gairdner\u2019s remark: \u201cIslam is the only one (religion) that definitely claimed to correct, complete and supersede Christianity.\u201d\u201d12<\/span><\/sup><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Jesus commanded his followers to follow the Comforter, the one to give \u201call truth.\u201d The Qur\u2019an is the indisputable proof that Mohammad is the Comforter. The Good News<\/i> of Jesus is the coming of the Prophet Mohammad, who will guide mankind into \u201call truth.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cPraise be to Allah! Who revealed the
\n<\/span><\/span>Book (Qur\u2019an) to His servant (Mohammad),
\n<\/span>and allowed not therein any crookedness,
\n<\/span>Rightly directing to give warning of severe
\n<\/span>Punishment from Him and to give good news
\n<\/span>to the believers who do good that theirs
\n<\/span>is a goodly reward, Staying in it for ever;
\n<\/span>And to warn those who say:
\n<\/i><\/strong><\/span>Allah has taken to Himself a son.
\n<\/i><\/strong>They have no knowledge of it, nor had their fathers.
\n<\/span>Grievous is the word that comes out of their mouths.
\n<\/span>They speak nothing but a lie<\/i><\/strong>.\u201d
\n<\/span>(Qur\u2019an 18:1-5).<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Jesus prophesied and All\u0101h, God, confirms:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMany will say to me (Jesus) in that day,
\n<\/span>Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name?
\n<\/span>and in thy name have cast out devils?
\n<\/span>And in thy name done many wonderful works?
\n<\/span>And then I (Jesus) will profess unto them,
\n<\/span>I never knew you:
\n<\/i><\/strong>depart from me, ye that work iniquity<\/i><\/strong>\u201d
\n<\/span>(Matt. 7:22-23)<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAnd when Allah will say: O Jesus, son of Mary,
\n<\/span>didst thou say to men, Take me and my mother
\n<\/span>for two gods besides Allah?
\n<\/span>He (Jesus) will say: Glory be to Thee!
\n<\/span>It was not for me to say what I had no right to (say).
\n<\/i><\/strong><\/span>If I had said it, Thou wouldst indeed have known it.
\n<\/span>Thou knowest what is in my mind,
\n<\/span>and I know not what is in Thy mind.
\n<\/span>Surely Thou art the great Knower of the unseen.
\n<\/span>I said to them naught save as Thou didst command me:
\n<\/i><\/strong><\/span>Serve Allah, my Lord and your Lord;<\/i><\/strong>
\n(see Mark 12:29)
\n<\/span>and I was a witness of them so long as I was among
\n<\/span>them, but when Thou didst cause me to <\/span>die
\n<\/i><\/strong>Thou wast the Watcher over them.
\n<\/span>And Thou art Witness of all things\u201d
\n<\/span>(Qur\u2019an 5:116-117)<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Messiah, son of Mary, was only a
\n<\/span>messenger; messengers before him had indeed
\n<\/span>passed away.
\n<\/span>And his mother was a truthful woman.
\n<\/span>They both used to eat food.
\n<\/span>See how We make the messages clear to them!
\n<\/span>then behold, how they are turned away\u201d
\n<\/span>(Qur\u2019an 5:75)<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSurely whoever associates (others) with All\u0101h,
\n<\/strong><\/span>All\u0101h has forbidden to him the Garden
\n<\/strong>and his abode is the Fire.
\n<\/strong><\/span>And for the wrongdoers there will be
\n<\/strong>no helpers\u201d
\n<\/strong><\/span>(Qur\u2019an 5:72)<\/span><\/p>\n

(As they make the difference between Hell and Heaven, doctrines such as karma, reincarnation, Divine sonship, inherited sin and vicarious atonement that are articles of faith are to be clearly expressed, they are not to be left to the function of interpretations).<\/span><\/p>\n

~<\/span><\/p>\n

Danish cartoons:<\/i><\/strong> The Prophet Mohammad is cartooned in a Danish paper\u2013Jyllands-Posten<\/i>\u2013as terrorist; devil; etc; (noted below), and at heaven\u2019s gate telling \u201csuicide bombers\u201d: \u201cStop. Stop. We have run out of virgins.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Bomb-shaped turban<\/strong><\/i>13<\/span><\/sup>: <\/i>Mohammad unleashed the bomb 1400 years ago: the bomb of Knowledge, Truth, Wisdom, Reason, Peace, Love, Hope, Mercy, and Justice. And its \u201ccloud\u201d of intellect is spreading inexorably across the globe. With the wise of all colors and on various rung of the economic ladder rushing for refuge under its glorious and eternal shade. <\/span><\/p>\n

Wielding sword <\/i><\/strong>14<\/span><\/sup>:<\/i> The only sword Mohammad wielded was the sword of defense and justice. Contrast Mohammad\u2019s \u201csword\u201d with those of Biblical Fathers, and present-day nations that take up swords for aggression, occupation, and exploitation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Crazed knife-wielder <\/i><\/strong>15<\/span><\/sup>: <\/i>This \u201ccrazed\u201d Bedouin has presented the world with a Book\u2013the Qur\u2019an\u2013unrivaled in the history of religions and demonstrated the highest act of mercy to enemies that is yet to be equaled by the most sane cartoonist and states-man. The world sorely needs this \u201ccrazed\u201d Bedouin.<\/span><\/p>\n

Heaven out of virgins <\/i><\/strong>16<\/span><\/sup>: <\/i>(This might have been a chuckler if it wasn\u2019t inane). As All\u0101h is Omniscient and Creator of what He wills heaven can never be out of \u201cvirgins.\u201d In response to this cartoon one may have reposted:<\/span> URGENT! MARTYRS SORELY NEEDED! 1000\u2019s<\/span> OF VIRGINS WAITING!\u00a0<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

Mohammad\u2013sprouting horns<\/strong><\/i>17<\/span><\/sup>: <\/i>There is nothing in Islam glorifying evil. Mohammad who informs us that All\u0101h has cursed the devil\u2013(Qur\u2019an 4:117-118; 15:32-35); the devil is our enemy\u2013(35:6); and to seek All\u0101h\u2019s protection from the devil\u2013(16:98), could not<\/i> be a \u201cdevil.\u201d To depict Mohammad as \u201cdevil\u201d is infantile.<\/span><\/p>\n

What would Mohammad drive? <\/strong><\/i>18<\/span><\/sup>. One cartoonist depicted the Prophet as driving a Ryder rental truck similar to the one used by Timothy McVeigh, the convicted Oklahoma City bomber, under the headline: \u201cWhat would Muhammad Drive?\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 All\u0101h created everything for our use; and for Muslims to fight injustice. In his battle against the perpetrators of injustice Mohammad, likely, would have driven whatever was available. Mohammad was no terrorist!<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cIn America we don\u2019t apologize for opinions,\u201d the paper notes this cartoonist as saying. Whereas one should not apologize for speaking the truth or buckle under bullying, opinions are to be grounded on facts and reason. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 The paper also notes this cartoonist as having received \u201cthreats\u201d (from Muslims) and \u201cdeath threats\u201d (probably for anti-Christian cartoon[s]). Wonder if this cartoonist would consider himself a terrorist, or agree with others \u2018opinion\u2019 that he was a terrorist, for vanquishing those who threatened him before they could carry out their \u201cthreats\u201d and \u201cdeath threats?\u201d (His leader would probably call his acts \u2018pre-emptive\u2019 strikes). <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 In the Middle East, Muslim newspapers may lampoon Jews and Christians; but don\u2019t Christian and Jewish publications lampoon Muslims and Arabs? <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Middle-eastern newspapers may carry cartoons about Christians and Jews; but can anyone show of any such Middle-eastern newspapers lampooning Moses and Jesus or any other Biblical figures?<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 The umbrella of \u201cfreedom of speech\u201d and \u201csatire\u201d does not cover libel. Satire and freedom of speech must be grounded on facts. <\/span><\/p>\n
