There is no difference between Islam and Christianity....Muhammed only came to complete the work of Jesus and other prophets.

What makes Islam diff from Christianity is the manipulations in both religion. Though, it is much in christainity than Islam.

If not for the manipulations, the teachings would be same.

E.g Jesus never talked about trinity. Yet Christians keep teaching it. If Jesus is God, who was he praying to?

That aside, what is baffling me is, why would a loving God permits slavery. Because neither he nor any of his prophet ever condemned it Quran and Bible.

There is even an hadith that says Allah would not accept salat of any slave that runs away from his master until he returns.

Which means you can even enslave a fellow Muslim. Allahu Akbar!!!

Well I hope both Muslims and Christian serve the same God though I will personally be happy if that is true. I dont hate christainity but I only narrated my personal encounter if I hadn't met that pastor all this might not have happened. We all want to make heaven and I dont want to say things I am not certain of only God can judge us all.

About that hadith I can't confirm that but It is certainly not in the quran

it depends on what they meant by that word because even though Muhammed was a prophet he was still called a slave of God. Even Muslims are called slave of God.. It depends on what they meant by the word "slave" it could mean employee you know. It seems the word 'slave' is also used in islam as a form of respect.

It is obvious Allah didn't permit slavery cos he wants muslims to free slaves with their Zakat.
And also the verse didn't say it is the Muslims that took them as slaves it only says free them with your zakat.

Zakat:
Zakat is an Islamic finance term referring to the obligation that an individual has to donate a certain proportion of wealth each year to charitable causes. Zakat is a mandatory process for Muslims and is regarded as a form of worship

okay I get your question now okay the word 'slave' can have several meaning in islam according to that verses it is the normal slavery.

If Muslims call themselves slaves of God it also means 'servant of God' it is just as form of respect, I know for sure they avoided using the word child of God as the Christians do. Because at the end if u are 'child of God' or 'Slave of God' at the end the aim is just to enter the kingdom of God.
Cos that what caused difference between islam and christainity in the first place cos Christians see Jesus co-equal with God infact God I.e The father is not greater than him( when jesus actually said my father is greater than I) and also as son of God and son of Man while muslims only see him as the prophet and messenger of God and son of Mary also worshiper of Allah cos he also prays (example The lords prayer in the bible).

@ ochoiho
I realized that when I started praying the prayer point given to me such as "Jesus reveal yorself to me" or "holy spirit fill me up"... The first time was in my dream someone placed a hand on my head and said received the holyspirit I felt some kind of vibration all through my body the pastorv mentoring said it is "impartation".
Okay again I was praying at night same prayers I felt a rushing wind comming towards me and my hand was getting kind of warm... I started stammering and mumbling the prayers I think I was speaking in tongue. I slept and the dream I saw was me telling my imam I am about to join Christianity he asked why I said I was not around during the time of Muhammed and Jesus I only met the bible and Quran so I don't know which is true he said don't join Christianity in a dream o.

Also I had a christianic dream one time on waking up I realize similar feeling like a rushing wind trying to fill me up and I recited a verse of the Quran and it left immediately.

u know I understand u if I was a Christian from birth I would give in easily without questioning the spirit however there was also a counter spirit the Islamic one. I dont think it was right for me to accept any spirit that comes to me holyspirit unless it was dominant over the other.

They are both coming as light and truth and nothing much to differentiate them.

I know u feel i grieved the holyspirit cos Christians dont believe Allah is God but also Muslim dont believe Jesus as God either if I choose the Christianic holyspirit muslims will also think I chose a demonic spirit also .

So i was right to take careful care before committing to any spirit definitely I want to go to heaven so I wont see something as evil spirit and choose it.

Allah was warning me to stay away from shaytan maybe the Christianic spirit will do the same too so who is the real satan and how do I know the true spirit of God. So I followed the dominant one and Allah convinced me that I am on the right path till date I am still having my encounters. And Allah has been guiding me.

Allah showed me some signs which I have stated earlier. They are both doing good things to their followers though.

That's the problem with we humans and how satan was able to dominate among us without we even knowing.
We are expecting satan to be doing evil when its aim is actually to deflect us from serving the True God. God does not want human to take partners with him.
we just accept any spirit that is doing us good without challenging it for truth cos that's what you want me to do.

Human are serving satan without even knowing we have to be careful when accepting any spirit.

Hence the saying A true christian will not join islam or A true muslim will not join Christianity.

Or do u believe God wants us to stay in our comfort zone hence making humans Christian s or muslims by birth respectively.

On that Paul matter I dont believe it was God that spoke to him but I believe jesus

True Christianity has been growing in Yorubaland, especially into DOMINANCE since the year 2000, as the Military that props up, & sustains Islam is no longer in control of National Resources. Moslems generally look up to the Government, while Christians are TAUGHT from day one to look up to Christ Jesus, Author and Finisher of their faith, Hebrews 12:2

funny... But one thing is Nigeria is not an Islamic country and I dont think at any point in time this country has ever been islamized.
The claim that government favored Moslems in Yorubaland how is that even possible and in what way.
I believe muslims look up to Allah .

It is true that violence from some sect who claim to be Islamic has given the religion a bad image worldwide but u have to also know most Muslims doesn't even support them we dont regard them as true muslims because to make heaven in islam following the 5 pillars of islam is enough to me I dont understand them because if they want people to convert to islam violence won't work it is even driving people away so what their aim is I dont know I personally believe it is one of the work of shaytan to drive people away from serving the true God.

The boko harams and the likes have killed soul which Allah has forbidden unjustly hence they will suffer the wrath of Allah but people are seeing them as the true muslims which led people away from islam hence calling innocent Muslims terrorists. Islam is a religion of peace.

Allah SWT said:

وَلَا تَقْتُلُوا النَّفْسَ الَّتِى حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ  ۗ وَمَنْ قُتِلَ مَظْلُومًا فَقَدْ جَعَلْنَا لِوَلِيِّهِۦ سُلْطٰنًا فَلَا يُسْرِف فِّى الْقَتْلِ  ۖ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ مَنْصُورًا
"And do not kill the soul which Allah has forbidden, except by right. And whoever is killed unjustly - We have given his heir authority, but let him not exceed limits in [the matter of] taking life. Indeed, he has been supported [by the law]."
(QS. Al-Israa 17: Verse 33)
