3Islamic Basics
- 5 Pillars of Islam15
- Witness (Shahadah)
- Witness or testimony that Allah is god and
Muhammad is his messenger. - Worship (Salat)
- Worship of ritual prayera set sequence of
motions and prostrations, performed facing in the
direction of the Kabah in Mecca. - Fasting (Sawm)
- Muslims must fast during the month of Ramadan
from daybreak until sunset refraining from
eating, drinking, smoking, etc. - Tithing (Zakat)
- All Muslims must pay a specified share of their
income or property. - Pilgrimage (Hajj)
- A Pilgrimage to Mecca during the 12th month of
the Muslim year. - There is a 6th pillar of Islam called Jihad or
Struggle in the way of God which is Islams
holy war against other religions and their
expansion of territory controlled by their ummah.
4Islamic Basics
- Sacred Texts15
- Muslims argue that God is revealed by the words
placed in the mouths of certain righteous people
called prophets. These words have been turned
into books such as the Torah (first five books of
the bible) the Gospels of the Christians, and the
Quran. - Muslims also believe that Gods earlier
revelations, in the form that we know them, were
corrupted ahd had to be corrected by the Quran. - Muslims believe the Jews altered the Torah to
depict themselves as Gods chosen people. Also
the Christains rewrote the gospels to prove the
divinity of Jesus Christ.
5Islamic Basics
- Sacred Texts15 continued
- Muslims believe however that the Quran is Gods
perfect revelation. - Islam begins with the profession of faith as
described in the 5 pillars. Muslims also are
fearful of judgment day so it is important to
know the rules such that their behavior is
pleasing to God. - These rules or laws have been organized into a
law code called the Shariah which is Arabic
meaning way.
6Islamic Basics
- Sacred Texts15 continued
- The Shariah is taken from a variety of sources
- Quran
- Hadiths, Sunnah of Muhammad (Bukhari)
- Interpretation by analogy
- Consensus of the ummah
- Radical judgment (for some Muslims).
- Strictly speaking, only the Quran and the Hadiths
are tangible sources.
7Islamic Basics
- Sacred Texts15 continued
- For the following comparison we will take
strictly from those tangible sources which are
available today - Quran
- Hadiths, Sunnah of Muhammad (Bukhari)
- Various Surah and quotations from the Bukhari
will be used as supporting evidences for what is
taught in Islam
8Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- The following comparison will describe the
tremendous differences between the behavior,
teaching, and life of Jesus Christ and Muhammad.
9Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Christ is the Prince of Peace (Isaiah 96-7).
- Muhammad was the prophet of war.
- Sura 929. Fight those who believe not in Allah
nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which
hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger. - Bukhari 124. Narrated Ibn 'Umar - Allah's
Apostle said "I have been ordered (by Allah) to
fight against the people until they testify that
none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and
that Muhammad is Allah's Apostle.
10Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Christ's disciples were killed for their faith
(Acts 122 2 Timothy 47) - Muhammad's disciples killed for the faith.
- Bukhari Vol.9 Number.57, Narrated 'Ikrima Some
Zanadiqa (atheists) were brought to 'ALI AND HE
BURNT THEM. The news of this event, reached Ibn
'Abbas who said, "If I had been in his place, I
would not have burnt them, as Allah's Apostle
forbade it, saying, 'Do not punish anybody with
Allah's punishment (fire).' I would have killed
them according to the statement of Allah's
Apostle, 'Whoever changed his Islamic religion,
then kill him.'"
11Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- The first in the series of assassinations that
the prophet ordered was an old Jewish man named
Ibnul-Ashraf. His crime was writing poetry
against Muslims. "The apostle said, WHO WILL RID
ME OF IBNUL-ASHRAF?" One of his followers
volunteered said, "I will deal with him for you,
O apostle of God, I will kill him." AND THE
PROPHET RESPONDED BY SAYING, "DO SO IF YOU CAN."2
12Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- The prophet also explicitly gave his assassins
permission to lie and use trickery in order to
accomplish their mission. The report goes on to
describe how the prophet's followers deceived the
old man out of his house in the middle of the
night and jumped on him with swords and daggers
and brutally murdered him. After completing their
mission, the followers reported back to the
prophet that they "had killed God's enemy." The
author concludes this incident by writing, "OUR
ATTACK UPON GOD'S ENEMY CAST TERROR AMONG THE
JEWS, AND THERE WAS NO JEW IN MEDINA WHO DID NOT
FEAR FOR HIS LIFE" (pp. 367-368)2.
13Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Christ forgave and converted the chief persecutor
(1 Timothy 113-15). - Muhammad promoted persecution against the
"infidels" - Sura 95. But when the forbidden months are past,
then fight AND SLAY THE PAGANS WHEREVER YE FIND
THEM, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in
wait for them in every stratagem (of war) BUT IF
THEY REPENT, and establish regular prayers and
pay Zakat, then open the way for them for Allah
is Oft- forgiving, Most Merciful.
14Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Christ was the giver of life (John 1027-28).
- Muhammad was the taker of life.
- "When the apostle heard what she had said he
said, "Who will rid me of Marwan's daughter?"
Umayr b. Adiy al-Khatmi who was with him heard
him, and that very night he went to her house and
killed her." - FROM THE SIRAT RASUL ALLAH, by Ibn
Ishaq3
15Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- After Muhammad and his men captured Khaybar,
Muhammad ordered his men to torture the Jewish
chief of this settlement who was named Kinana. He
had him tortured in order that the Jew would tell
where the community treasure was buried. Ibn
Ishaq's Sirat Rasulallah gives the details-
(...) so the apostle gave orders to al-Zubayr b.
Al-Awwam, 'TORTURE HIM UNTIL YOU EXTRACT WHAT HE
HAS,' so he kindled a fire with flint and steel
on his chest until he was nearly dead. Then the
apostle delivered him to Muhammad b. Maslama and
he struck off his head, in revenge for his
brother Mahmud.3
16Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Christ murdered none but saved many (compare John
1248). - Muhammad and his fellow warriors murdered
thousands. - "Hormuz wanted to cut the fight short by
murdering Khalid treacherously. So, no sooner
were the two armies engaged in battle than he
challenged Khalid to fight a duel. Khalid at once
dismounted and before long his foe was killed and
Khalid cut off his head and held it by the
forelock. The Persians dashed up at full gallop
to prevent their captain's death, but the Muslims
were ready for them. The Persians took to their
heels AND A MASSACRE FOLLOWED." - (This was
during the ruthless conquest of Persia)4
17Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Christ's aim was voluntary CONVERSION (Acts
319). - Muhammad's method was COMPULSION.5,6,7
- Here is the text of the message the Prophet
Mohammad sent to the Julanda brothers through the
intermediary of his Messengers, 'Amr bin al-'As
al-Sahmi and Abu Zaid al-Ansari.
18Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- "Peace be upon the one who follows the right
path! I call you to Islam. Accept my call, and
you shall be unharmed. I am God's Messenger to
mankind, and the word shall be carried out upon
the miscreants. If, therefore, you recognize
Islam, I shall bestow power upon you. BUT IF YOU
REFUSE TO ACCEPT ISLAM, YOUR POWER SHALL VANISH,
MY HORSES SHALL CAMP ON THE EXPANSE OF YOUR
TERRITORY AND MY PROPHECY SHALL PREVAIL IN YOUR
KINGDOM." - Sura 973 Prophet, make war on the unbelievers
and the hypocrites and deal rigorously with them.
Hell shall be their home, and evil fate
19Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Christ preached FAITH (John 629,35).
- Muhammad practiced FORCE.
- Sura 929. Fight those who believe not in Allah
nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which
hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger - Bukhari, Number24. Narrated Ibn 'Umar - Allah's
Apostle said "I have been ordered (by Allah) to
fight against the people until they testify that
none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and
that Muhammad is Allah's Apostle,
20Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Christ is a DELIVERER (Col. 113 1 Thessalonians
110). - Muhammad was a WARRIOR.

Apostle said "I have been ordered (by Allah) to
fight against the people until they testify that
none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and
that Muhammad is Allah's Apostle,
21Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Christ conquered his enemies with another kind of
sword, the sword of the Spirit which is the Word
of God (Hebrews 412 Acts 237). - Muhammad conquered his enemies with the sword.
- Prior to Muhammad's conquest of Khaibar, he had
just been stopped by the Meccans from performing
a pilgrimage to Mecca. Outside of Mecca, he also
signed a humiliating treaty with the Meccans - a
treaty that a number of his leading followers
didn't like. To placate them Muhammad claimed to
have a "revelation" that God would give them the
possessions of the Jews of Khaibar. Six weeks
later he marched on Khaibar with the intent to
conquer and plunder.3
22Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Christ said, "Believe and live!" (John 647
1125-26). - Muhammad said to the masses, "Convert or die!
- BUT IF YOU REFUSE TO ACCEPT ISLAM, YOUR POWER
SHALL VANISH, MY HORSES SHALL CAMP ON THE EXPANSE
OF YOUR TERRITORY AND MY PROPHECY SHALL PREVAIL
IN YOUR KINGDOM. (The letter to the Julanda
brothers)
23Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad

many. (Ephesians 17, Romans 315-17). - Muhammad was swift to shed blood.
- Muhammad said "Torture him until you extract
what he has.3 - Muhammad said "If you gain a victory over the
men of Jews, kill them." - Abu Dawud Bukhari Book
19, Number 2996
24Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- "The apostle said, "KILL ANY JEW THAT FALLS INTO
YOUR POWER" - Alfred Guillaume (Biography of
Prophet Mohammad Published by Oxford University
Press (page 369) - Muhammad said "WHO WILL RID ME OF MARWAN'S
DAUGHTER?" Umayr b. Adiy al-Khatmi who was with
him heard him, and that very night he went to her
house and killed her.3
25Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Christ prayed "Father, forgive them, for they
know not what they do" (Luke 2334). - Muhammad preached "Death to the infidels!
- Muhammad said "WHOEVER CHANGED HIS ISLAMIC
RELIGION, THEN KILL HIM." - Bukhari 957 - If anyone desires a religion other than Islam,
never will it be accepted of him - Qur'an 385
(This last verse doesn't command the Muslims to
kill the infidels, but it does show that the only
accepted religion is Islam.)
26Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Christ achieved a holy victory on Calvary's cross
(Colossians 214-15) and His followers share in
that victory (John 1633). - Muhammad declared a holy war (Jihad) against
infidels. - Sura 929. Fight those who believe not in Allah
nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which
hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger,
nor acknowledge the Religion of Truth.
27Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Christ constrained people by love (2 Corinthians
514). - Muhammad constrained people by conquest.
- See the letter Muhammad sent to the Julanda
brothers - "Peace be upon the one who follows
the right path! I call you to Islam. Accept my
call, and you shall be unharmed. I am God's
Messenger to mankind, and the word shall be
carried out upon the miscreants. If, therefore,
you recognize Islam, I shall bestow power upon
you. BUT IF YOU REFUSE TO ACCEPT ISLAM, YOUR
POWER SHALL VANISH, MY HORSES SHALL CAMP ON THE
EXPANSE OF YOUR TERRITORY AND MY PROPHECY SHALL
PREVAIL IN YOUR KINGDOM."
28Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Christians derive their inspiration from the One
who said, "Blessed are the peacemakers" (Matthew
59). - Modern terrorists derive their inspiration from
Muhammad and carry out their despicable
atrocities in the name of his god. - "Praise be to Allah, who revealed the Book,
controls the clouds, defeats factionalism, AND
SAYS IN HIS BOOK "But when the forbidden months
are past, THEN FIGHT AND SLAY THE PAGANS WHEREVER
YE FIND THEM, seize them, beleaguer them, and lie
in wait for them in every stratagem (of war)"
AND PEACE BE UPON OUR PROPHET, MUHAMMAD
BIN-'ABDALLAH, WHO SAID I HAVE BEEN SENT WITH
THE SWORD BETWEEN MY HANDS TO ENSURE THAT NO ONE
BUT ALLAH IS WORSHIPPED, Allah who put my
livelihood under the shadow of my spear and who
inflicts humiliation and scorn on those who
disobey my orders."
29Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- (Statement from Osama bin Laden and his
associates purports to be a religious ruling
(fatwa) requiring the killing of Americans, both
civilian and military.9
30Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Modern day Disciples of Christ are deeply grieved
at past atrocities carried out by those who were
"Christians" in name only (the Crusades, the
Spanish Inquisition, etc.). - Modern day disciples of Muhammad respond to the
terrorist attacks by cheering in the streets. - "When young armed Palestinians patrolling the
streets of a refugee camp in Jenin heard the news
from New York and Washington, THEY CHUCKLED WITH
GLEE. ONE OF THEM THANKED GOD FOR HIS MIGHTY
REVENGE AGAINST THE UNITED STATES, Israel's ally
and main weapons supplier.10 - "After the two terror attacks, dozens of young
Palestinians marched through the darkened streets
of Gaza, cheering and raising their hands in
victory"11
31Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Side Note
- This is true, as seen in the Coptic site -
"First, a word about my personal view of the
Crusades. I believe that the murderous and
pillaging acts of the Crusaders when they entered
Jerusalem were barbaric, unchristian. This is
particularly so as those barbaric acts were
carried on in the name of a religion of peace,
love, and forgiveness. I believe that the vast
bulk of thinking Christians agree with me. I CITE
AS EVIDENCE THE LARGE NUMBERS OF CHRISTIANS WHO
HAVE RECENTLY TAKEN LONG PILGRIMAGES IN THE
FOOTSTEPS OF THE CRUSADERS, REPENTING FOR THE
CRUSADER'S ACTS, SEEKING FOR FORGIVENESS, AND
GIVING PENANCE FOR THE CRUSADER'S BARBARIC, AND
UNCHRISTIAN ACTS."12
32Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Side Note continued
- "A question occurs to me here. How many Muslim
groups have taken long pilgrimages in the
footsteps of the Muslim conquest repenting,
seeking for forgiveness, and giving penance for
the Muslims imperialist, colonialist, and bloody
conquest of Palestine, Egypt, Syria, North
Africa, and Spain?12
33Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Many Christians are peaceful and peace-loving
because they do strictly follow the teachings of
their Founder (Romans 1217-21). - Many Muslims are peaceful and peace-loving
because they do not strictly follow the teachings
of their founder. - See all of the previous references for evidences
supporting this premise.
34Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- The Bible is authoritative in many languages
around the world, for God knows all things and
can inspire His Word in more than one language. - Muhammad said the Quran is authoritative only in
Arabic, and only in his dialect. - First of all, I think all Muslims agree that only
the ARabic Qur'an is authoritative. - Second, the 2nd Caliph clearly stated to the men
involved in gathering the Qur'an on one
manuscript that if they difered, then the dialect
of Muhammad should be taken in first place
35Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- "Uthman ordered Zayd ibn Thabit, Said ibn
al-As, Abd Allah ibn al-Zubayr, and Abd
Al-Rahman ibn al-Harith ibn Hisham to copy them
into volumes. He said "If you all differ with
Zayd concerning the Arabic, THEN WRITE IT IN THE
DIALECT OF QURAYSH, for truly the Quran was only
revealed in their dialect." - Bukhari Volume 6,
Book 61, Number 507
36Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Jesus and His disciples sang hymns, and the
Apostle commanded the Lord's Church to sing.
(Matthew 2630, Ephesians 519, Colossians 316) - Muhammad hated music.
- Sahih Al-Bukhari Volume 7, Book 69, hadith 494v
Narrated Abu 'Amir (raa) or Abu Malik Al-Ash'ari
(raa) that he heard the Prophet (sallallaahu
alayhi wa sallam) saying, "From among my
followers there will be some people who will
consider illegal sexual intercourse, the wearing
of silk, the drinking of alcoholic drinks, and
the use of musical instruments ma'aazif as
lawful. And (from them), there will be some who
will stay near the side of a mountain, and in the
evening their shepherd will come to them with
their sheep and ask them for something, but they
will say to him, 'Return to us tomorrow.' Allah
will destroy them during the night and will let
the mountain fall on them, and Allah will
transform the rest of them into monkeys and pigs
and they will remain so till the Day of
Resurrection." note Here Rasulullah (sallallaahu
alayhi wa sallam) has mentioned music with
drinking of alcohol and fornication (zina) which
are a MAJOR (Kabair) sin!13
37Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Sunan Abu-Dawud Book 41, Hadith 4909 Narrated
Abdullah ibn Mas'ud(raa) Salam ibn Miskin(raa),
quoting an old man who witnessed AbuWa'il in a
wedding feast, said They began to play, amuse
and sing. He united the support of his hand round
his knees that were drawn up, and said I heard
Abdullah (ibn Mas'ud) say I heard the apostle of
Allah (SAW) say SINGING PRODUCES HYPOCRISY IN
THE HEART.
38Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- The Bible requires that a leader in the Church of
the Lord Jesus Christ must be above reproach, and
when this is not true, Christians demand such a
fallen leader be removed from leadership. (1
Timothy 31-7, 519-20) - Muhammed allowed that a Mullah, Imam, or Mufti of
Islam can be a terrorist and moral animal like
Osama bin Laden. - Volume 1, Book 11, Number 626 Narrated Abu
Huraira The Prophet said, "No prayer is harder
for the hypocrites than the Fajr and the 'Isha'
prayers and if they knew the reward for these
prayers at their respective times, they would
certainly present themselves (in the mosques)
even if they had to c awl." The Prophet added,
"Certainly I decided to order the Mu'adh-dhin
(call-maker) TO PRONOUNCE IQAMA AND ORDER A MAN
TO LEAD THE PRAYER AND THEN TAKE A FIRE FLAME TO
BURN ALL THOSE WHO HAD NOT LEFT THEIR HOUSES SO
FAR FOR THE PRAYER ALONG WITH THEIR HOUSES."
39Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- The Bible calls on the Christian to submit to the
total change of his life by the Spirit of God--
NO area of life and thought is the choice of the
follower. (Romans 121-2) - Islam calls on its followers to observe Five
Pillars, while all other aspects of life can be
vulgar and not affect the Muslim's prospects in
Paradise. - Volume 4, Book 54, Number 445 Narrated Abu Dhar
The Prophet said, "Gabriel said to me, 'Whoever
amongst your followers die without having
worshipped others besides Allah, will enter
Paradise (or will not enter the (Hell) Fire)."
The Prophet asked. "EVEN IF HE HAS COMMITTED
ILLEGAL SEXUAL INTERCOURSE OR THEFT?" He replied,
"Even then."
40Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- The Bible believing Christian looks forward to
being with Jesus Christ and is delighted with
that. (2 Corinthians 58) - The Muslim looks forward to eternity in Paradise
where there will be virgins who are used for
eternal perpetual copulation. - "Verily, for al-Muttaqoon, there will be a
success gardens and grapeyards and young
FULL-BREASTED MATURE MAIDENS of equal age."
Sura 7831-33 - "Verily, We have created their companions of
special creation, AND MADE THEM VIRGIN-PURE and
undefiled, beloved by nature, equal in age."
Sura 5635-37
41Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- "...whom no man or jinn has touched before them."
Sura 5556 - "And there will be HOURIS WITH WIDE LOVELY EYES
as wives for the pious, Like unto preserved
pearls." Sura 5622-23 - "In them will be maidens restraining their
glances, whom no man or jinn has touched before
them, Then which of the favours of your Rabb will
you deny? Like unto rubies and coral." Sura
5556-58
42Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- The Bible teaches that a husband is to love his
wife and be willing to die for her. (Ephesians
525) - Muhammad said the witness of a woman was half the
value of the witness of a man and Muhammad said
a women goes to Paradise because she satisfies
her husband sexually. - Bukhari Vol.3 Number.826. Narrated Abu Said
Al-Khudri The Prophet said, "Isn't THE WITNESS
OF A WOMAN EQUAL TO HALF OF THAT OF A MAN?" The
women said, "Yes." He said, "This is because of
the deficiency of a woman's mind."
43Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Muslim Book.008 Number.3368. Abu Huraira (Allah
he pleased with him) reported Allah's Messenger
(may, peace be upon him) as saying When a man
invites his wife to his bed and she does not
come, and he (the husband) spends the sight being
angry with her, the angels curse her until
morning. - (We have to ask ourselves if a woman dies right
after she has refused the husband's "invitation"
will she go to hell? Clearly, seeing that she had
been the object of the angels' curse, that seems
a pretty plausible scenario. We logically have to
conclude that if a woman refuses the husband's
invitations, she will not go to heaven)
44Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Jesus said, "My kingdom is not of this world if
My kingdom were of this world, then would My
servants fight . . .but now is My kingdom not
from here" (John 1836). - Muhammad called upon his servants to fight.
- Sura 929 Fight those who believe not in Allah
nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which
hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger.
45Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Christ ordered that the gospel be preached "to
the Jew first" (Romans 116). - Muhammad ordered death to the Jews.3
- Muhammad said "If you gain a victory over the
men of Jews, kill them." - Abu Dawud (hadith)
Book 19, Number 2996 - "The apostle said, "KILL ANY JEW THAT FALLS INTO
YOUR POWER"3
46Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- The Bible says, "we wrestle not against flesh and
blood" and "the weapons of our warfare are not
carnal" (Ephesians 612 2 Corinthians 104). - The Quran says, "Fight in the cause of Allah
- Sura 2244
- Hadith literature say Bukhari 124. Narrated Ibn
'Umar - Allah's Apostle said "I have been
ordered (by Allah) to fight against the people
until they testify that none has the right to be
worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is Allah's
Apostle.
47Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Christ said, "Preach the gospel to every
creature" (Mark 1615). - The Quran says, "Fight and slay the Pagans
wherever ye find them" - Sura 95. But when the forbidden months are past,
then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find
them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in
wait for them in every stratagem (of war) but if
they repent, and establish regular prayers and
pay Zakat, then open the way for them for Allah
is Oft- forgiving, Most Merciful.
48Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Jesus says to Love your enemies and pray for them
(Matthew 5 43-47) - The Quran says, "I will inspire terror into the
hearts of unbelievers" (Qu'ran 812) - Sura 812. Remember thy Lord inspired the angels
(with the message) "I am with you give firmness
to the Believers I will instill terror into the
hearts of the Unbelievers smite ye above their
necks and smite all their finger-tips off them."
49Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- The Bible is a missionary manual to spread the
gospel of peace to all the world (Romans 1015). - The Muhammads Qu'ran is a terrorist manual which
condones fighting, conflict, terror, slaughter,
and genocide against those who do not accept
Islam. - See previous references for evidence to support
this premise.
50Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Christ's mission was to conquer sin's penalty and
power by substitutionary atonement (2 Corinthians
521 1 Peter 318). - Muhammad's mission was to conquer the world for
Allah. - "I have been ordered (by Allah) to fight against
the people until they testify that none has the
right to be worshipped but Allah and that
Muhammad is Allah's Apostle" - Bukhari 124
51Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Christ pronounced Muhammad to be a false prophet
(John 1010 Matthew 2411). - Muhammad considered Christ a good prophet.
- Sura 931. They take their priests and their
anchorites to be their lords beside Allah, and
(they take as their Lord) Christ the son of Mary
yet they were commanded to worship but One God.
there is no god but He. Praise and glory to Him
(Far is He) from having the partners they
associate (with Him).
52Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Jesus Christ claimed that He was God (John
1030-31 John 858-59 John 518 John 149). - Muhammad claimed Allah is God.
- Bukhari 124 Allah's Apostle said "I have been
ordered (by Allah) to fight against the people
until they testify that none has the right to be
worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is Allah's
Apostle, and offer the prayers perfectly and give
the obligatory charity, so if they perform a
that, then they save their lives an property from
me except for Islamic laws and then their
reckoning (accounts) will be done by Allah."
53Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Jesus Christ is the center of all Christian
worship and fellowship, for He is "in the midst"
where his saints meet anywhere on earth. (Matthew
1820, John 422-23) - Islam is geocentric that is the whole universe
is centered on the Kaaba in the Grand mosque in
Mecca in Arabia, and all Muslims pray facing that
direction.14 - Sura 2144 "We have seen the turning of your face
for guidance to the Heaven, and now we have made
you turn your face (in prayer) toward the
direction which is dear to you. So from now on
turn your face toward the Kaaba. And O Muslims
wherever you may be turn your face in prayer
toward it.
54Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Christ's tomb EMPTY! (Matt179, Mark166,9)
- Muhammad's tomb OCCUPIED!
- All Muslims agree that the body of Muhammad is
buried in Arabia. However, Muslims also agree
that Jesus was raised to heaven. - Who will you serve? The Living One (Jesus) or the
dead (Muhammad)?
55Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- The Faith offered by Jesus Christ is for
"whosoever will" to receive, and all men are
permitted to reject it. (Revelation 2217, John
316) - Islam must be received, or you can be killed for
rejecting it. - See the letter to the Julinda brothers, where
Muhammad commanded them to accept Islam or "face
the consequences"
56Jesus Christ Versus Muhammad
- Those who leave the true Church of Jesus Christ
are allowed to do so with no revenge. - Those who leave Islam are killed in most Islamic
nations. - Muhammad said 'WHOEVER CHANGED HIS ISLAMIC
RELIGION, THEN KILL HIM.' Bukhari Vol.9
Number.57
57Summary
- Christians believe by faith according to Jesus
Christs example, Muslims are required to do
works of service according to Muhammads example. - Islam teaches killing, stealing, and murder is ok
if done for religious reasons. Jesus Christ
taught that we are to forgive our enemies. - Allah is a false god as defined by the Quran.
Allah could not be the same God as defined by the
Bible because of the drastically different
theology and teachings between the Bible and the
Quran.
58Conclusion
- Now, is a Muslim submitting to Allah and Islam
because he loves Allah? - The answer is NO!
- The Muslim dare not leave Islam, his loyalty is
purely out of fear!
59Conclusion Cont.
- The true Bible believer is loyal to Jesus Christ
purely out of love. - (1 John 418 There is no fear in love but
perfect love casteth out fear because fear hath
torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in
love. We love him (Jesus), because he first
loved us.)
