Islam for Muslims / Re: Animals (Udhiyah) To Be Slaughtered For 'Eid Al-Adha by Haines: 9:24pm On Jun 14
Surah Al-Hajj, Verse 78:
وَجَاهِدُوا فِي اللَّهِ حَقَّ جِهَادِهِ هُوَ اجْتَبَاكُمْ وَمَا جَعَلَ عَلَيْكُمْ فِي الدِّينِ مِنْ حَرَجٍ مِّلَّةَ أَبِيكُمْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ هُوَ سَمَّاكُمُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ مِن قَبْلُ وَفِي هَٰذَا لِيَكُونَ الرَّسُولُ شَهِيدًا عَلَيْكُمْ وَتَكُونُوا شُهَدَاءَ عَلَى النَّاسِ فَأَقِيمُوا الصَّلَاةَ وَآتُوا الزَّكَاةَ وَاعْتَصِمُوا بِاللَّهِ هُوَ مَوْلَاكُمْ فَنِعْمَ الْمَوْلَىٰ وَنِعْمَ النَّصِيرُ

And strive hard in Allah's Cause as you ought to strive (with sincerity and with all your efforts that His Name should be superior). He has chosen you (to convey His Message of Islamic Monotheism to mankind by inviting them to His religion, Islam), and has not laid upon you in religion any hardship, it is the religion of your father Ibrahim (Abraham) (Islamic Monotheism). It is He (Allah) Who has named you Muslims both before and in this (the Quran), that the Messenger (Muhammad SAW) may be a witness over you and you be witnesses over mankind! So perform As-Salat (Iqamat-as-Salat), give Zakat and hold fast to Allah [i.e. have confidence in Allah, and depend upon Him in all your affairs] He is your Maula (Patron, Lord, etc.), what an Excellent Maula (Patron, Lord, etc.) and what an Excellent Helper!

May Allah accept our good deeds and forgive our bad deeds and grant us Jannatu Firdaos Aameen.

Yes, Jesus was cursed by God fot that season because he was bearing the burden of the sins of mankind, which was the reason for his crucifixion and death.

Galatians 3:13-14:
Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

What Jesus faced was even worse than being cursed by God. God turned his back on him because he couldn't bear the sight of the suffering.

Maybe you should read about the crucifixion of Jesus as recorded by historians of that period. I've read from at least one. These historians explicitly narrated how the crucifixion took place from the Romans' point of view.

Content of the Bible is probable by history and you are still arguing blindly.

It's you who is arguing blindly how can someone die for another man sin?

Jesus died for our sins?!

If Jesus died on the cross and spent three days in hell to pay for the sins of the world, then why would we have to go to hell ourselves and pay for them again? God is then, in essence, being paid for our sins twice. With that said, was Jesus’ sacrifice not worthy enough? If that is the case, why should we care that he died for our sins if his sacrifice means nothing at all? Perhaps one should first ask what hell is really talking about.

Jeremiah 31:30 says "ALL people will die for their own sin" and Paul, in his 1 Corinthians 3:8 said "EVERYBODY receives his/her reward according to his/her labor."

�“The son shall not bear the guilt of the father, nor the father bear the guilt of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon himself.” (Ezekiel 20:18)

�“The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin.” (Deuteronomy 24:16)

�1 Corinthians 3:8
He who plants and he who waters are one, and each will receive his wages according to his labor.

�God says: “ ...every man shall be put to death for his own sin” (Deut. 24:16)

�Christ is both God and Son of God! Is there any sense in what Paul said above?
supposed God dying for his creatures! This is really the most absurd thing to say. This God cried to God (Matthew 27:46, John 11:35) and prayed to God (Matthew 26:39, John 11:41-42)!!!

Is the God in the old Testament is the same like the weak one described in the new Testament? 🤔

Your Quran said he didn't die but my Bible, supported by history, says he died and resurrected.

Whywill i believe the narratives of your Quran that came 600 years after Christ as against the Bible that was written just about 100 years after Christ?

Many of those wrote the new testament associated with Jesus or with Jesus disciples. So, they can be trusted for more authentic narratives than the content of the Quran, which Mohamed himself lamented to be filled with lies (Al-tabari 6:111).

Why Did Prophet Muhammad Come After Jesus?

Short Answer: Mostly because the true message of Jesus was lost with time. Jesus and Muhammad taught the same basic idea: worship God alone, be a good person, be just and generous and helpful and stand on the side of the oppressed. But over time, his message was corrupted by people like Paul. It’s the Paulified …

No negative feelings, but loving pity for the widespread misconception and lack of information on what Islam and its prophet are all about.

Jesus: For the People of Israel Only. Muhammad: All Mankind

While Jesus (peace be upon him) was sent specifically to the Israelites, Muhammad (peace be upon him) was sent to all humanity.

According to the Gospels,
“But he [Jesus] answered and said, ‘I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.’” (Matthew 15:24)

In contrast, the Quran declares the universal message of Islam.

The Quran says what means:

Say: “O people! surely I am the Messenger of Allah to you all, of Him Whose is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth; there is no god but He; He brings to life and causes to die; therefore believe in Allah and His Messenger, the illiterate Prophet who believes in Allah and His words, and follow him so that you may walk in the right way.” (Quran 7:158)

The Original Message Of Jesus

Jesus, a human monotheistic prophet, repeatedly called people to worship God and warned those who ascribed partners to Him:

Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God, and Him Only.’ (Matthew 4:10)

“The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One.’” (Mark 12:29)
Jesus emphasized his own humanity:

[As it is, you are determined to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God.] (John 8:40)

[By myself I can do nothing; I judge only as I hear.] (John 5:30)
Jesus never claimed to be God, or part of a God. He never mentioned Trinity, nor did he appoint a church to entrust itself with reshaping the faith and re-inventing the law.

The deviation started with Paul and some others—leaders, clergy, and philosophers—centuries after Jesus’s departure.

Christianity Today= Paulianity

Christianity as we know it today was re-formulated with its concepts of:

– Trinity , centered around the prophet Jesus who was thenceforth called God, begotten son of God

– The sacrosanct Church of Christ, talking and enacting laws in the name of God

– The story of crucifixion and resurrection from the dead

– Original sin and atonement
Read for example, according to Paul (NIV):

“At once he [Paul]began to preach in the synagogues that Jesus is the Son of God.” (Acts 9:20)

“Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead, descended from David. This is my gospel…” (2 Timothy 2:cool

Pauline Christianity Originated in Pagan Beliefs

Most of these distortions were borrowed or coined from earlier pagan creeds.

Close similarities can be found between this Pauline Christianity and Mithraism, Buddhism, and ancient Egyptian polytheist creeds.

During the seventh century CE when Muhammad (peace be upon him) was sent, there were only a few groups of followers of the original message and teachings of Jesus.

The Injeel revealed to Jesus no longer existed in any form , as was the case of the Tawrah of Moses before him.

They were replaced with the Old and New Testaments written by different human authors selected and sanctioned as holy by the Church ecumenical councils, several centuries after the departure of Jesus.

It was high time then to re-establish the eternal guidance of the Creator to all humanity, but this time in a final eternal form, through the Glorious Quran and the detailed teachings and living model of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).

Jesus prophesied the coming prophet whose universal message will stay forever:

“And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever— ” (John 14:16)

The counselor is none but prophet Muhammad

There is nothing like Al-tabari 6:111 what we have is Al-An'am 6:111

وَلَوْ أَنَّنَا نَزَّلْنَآ إِلَيْهِمُ ٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةَ وَكَلَّمَهُمُ ٱلْمَوْتَىٰ وَحَشَرْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ كُلَّ شَىْءٍ قُبُلًا مَّا كَانُوا۟ لِيُؤْمِنُوٓا۟ إِلَّآ أَن يَشَآءَ ٱللَّهُ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ يَجْهَلُونَ

And even if We had sent down to them the angels [with the message] and the dead spoke to them [of it] and We gathered together every [created] thing in front of them, they would not believe unless Allah should will. But most of them, [of that], are ignorant.

What you Muslims don't know is that the crucifixion of Jesus is in history, not just something that ends in the Bible alone.

You forgot where the Quran said in Surah Maryam 19:33-34, where Jesus declared that "Peace be upon me the day I was born, the day I die, and the day I will be raised back to life! That is Jesus, son of Mary. ˹And this is˺ a word of truth, about which they dispute."

This means he died and was raised alive, as proclaimed in the Bible.

The Quran only came some 600 years after Jesus was crucified, died and resurrected (raised alive, as described in the Quran).

Many other literatures came long before the Quran written by researchers and historians from Greece and Roman empire, all of which described the crucifixion of Jesus.

The content of the Quran is even the least important and least reliable reference for the subject matter.

Jesus was crucified and died, according to history.

Deuteronomy 21:23
His body shall not remain all night on the tree, but you shall bury him the same day, for a hanged man is cursed by God. You shall not defile your land that the Lord your God is giving you for an inheritance.

So you mean Jesus was cursed by God?

Now this is the Tafsir (exegesis) of the verse you quoted
Maryam 19 33
And Salam (peace) be upon me the day I was born, and the day I die, and the day I shall be raised alive!

This is his affirmation that `he (Jesus) is a worshipper of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, and that he is a creature created by Allah.

He (Jesus) will live, die and be resurrected, just like the other creatures that Allah has created. However, he will have peace in these situations, which are the most difficult situations for Allah's creatures.'

May Allah's peace and blessings be upon him

Politics / Re: Tinubu’s Inauguration: Peter Obi Sends Message To Obidients, Others by Haines: 5:06pm On May 28, 2023
humilitypays:
If Tinubu is truly God's will for Nigeria and he didn't foist himself on Nigeria through Buhari and INEC, I wish him a blissful, prosperous regime. But if Tinubu stole someone else's mandate, I pray divinity give him and his group/supporters a taste of the injustice and criminality they gave to his opponents.





Meanwhile, I don't see much coming out of Tinubu's regime, in fact, Tinubu will be worst than Buhari for the reasons below:


Tinubu is the only crop of 1999 Governors that is still in total control of the state he governed since 1999. Tinubu confiscated Lagos state and her treasury and turned it to his personal purse, he will unknowingly want to replicate the looting and reckless stealing he does in Lagos since 1999 in Nigeria.



Remember, it is Lagos state treasury that Tinubu confiscated since 1999, which was being looted dry to fund Tinubu's 2023 Presidential ambition by installing Buhari a failure to pave way for him Tinubu, so such huge investment must yield maximum return for Tinubu and his Lagos boys.


Secondly, Bola Tinubu is a one party politician who doesn't believe in opposition just as he murdered opposition in Lagos state since 1999, he would definitely murder opposition in Nigeria using all government institutions.


Tinubu will destroy every inch of progress made with electoral laws that makes Nigeria's election better, he would single handedly be selecting Governors, Senators, Reps, etc for the 36 states from Aso Rock, so if you want to become a Governor in your state, just go and lobby Tinubu through his son Seyi or his wife Remi or his Lagos gang members.


Tinubu's health is in very bad shape and for this, he will be shuttling between Nigeria and France and London for medical trips, so expect more "Presidency said" speeches and statements soon.



Because of Bola Tinubu's frail health, his Aides and his Lagos gang members will plunder Nigeria through so many means like people killing taxes, levies, etc.



Tinubu of today is a full time tribalist more than Buhari, so expect more tribalism, nepotism and mypeople mypeople and the haters kind of government which will reflect in his appointments and response to National issues by state and region.



Tinubu will never make any policy that aims at prospering all regions of Nigeria, all thanks to his sycophantic supporters who are deadliest tribal bigots who eat, breath and drink tribalism especially against Igbos.


Tinubu rode on the belief that he is larger than Nigerians and in fact anybody in Nigeria, and will definitely not be loyal to the Nigerian people. Tinubu will never respect Nigerian media, he will never respect the court, he will never respect any Nigerian institution that has a contrary opinion to his own. Tinubu's supporters will further worsen things for Tinubu by defending every of his soon to start evil with the excuse that Buhari did worst and Nigerians did nothing.




There will be too many Presidents under Tinubu from his 6th month in office.


Please bookmark this page today.

Is there anything to write about where Obi has governed? Obi lives in Lagos because Tinubu make Lagos liveable for people the same thing can't be say about Obi and his former party despite being only party runs the government since 1999😕😕😕

No, the rules changed when Jesus came.

That's why Quran said in Surah 3:55: "O Jesus! I will recall you and raise you up to Me and will purify you of those who disbelieve, and will set your followers above the unbelievers till the Day of Resurrection."

So, the Quran confirmed that those who believe in Jesus will be lifted to heaven above unbelievers.

Aal-e-Imran 3:55

إِذْ قَالَ ٱللَّهُ يَٰعِيسَىٰٓ إِنِّى مُتَوَفِّيكَ وَرَافِعُكَ إِلَىَّ وَمُطَهِّرُكَ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ وَجَاعِلُ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّبَعُوكَ فَوْقَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِۖ ثُمَّ إِلَىَّ مَرْجِعُكُمْ فَأَحْكُمُ بَيْنَكُمْ فِيمَا كُنتُمْ فِيهِ تَخْتَلِفُونَ

[Mention] when Allah said, "O Jesus, indeed I will take you and raise you to Myself and purify you from those who disbelieve and make those who follow you [in submission to Allah alone] superior to those who disbelieve until the Day of Resurrection. Then to Me is your return, and I will judge between you concerning that in which you used to differ.

The advent (descent) of Jesus Mary (peace be upon him)

a) Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, surely Jesus, the son of Mary will shortly descend amongst you (Muslims), and will judge mankind justly by the law of the Qur'an (as a just ruler); he will break the Cross (i.e correct false teaching about him) and kill the pigs (forbid the meat) and there will be no Jizyah* (i.e. taxation taken from non-Muslims). Money will be in abundance so that nobody will accept it, and a single prostration to Allah (in prayer) will be better than the whole world and whatever is in it." Abu Hurairah added: "If you wish, you can recite (this Verse of the Qur'an): "And there is none of the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) but must believe in him (i.eJesus) [peace be upon him] as a Messenger of Allah and a human being] before his [(Jesus) [peace be upon him] or a Jew's or a Christian's] death, and on the Day of Resurrection, he (Jesus) [peace be upon him] will be a witness against them." (V.4:159).

b) Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: "How will you be when the son of Mary (Jesus) [peace be upon him] descends amongst you, and he will judge people by the law of the Qur'an and not by the law of the Injil (Gospel)." (Fath Al-Bari) [Sahih Al-Bukhari, 4/3449 (O.P.658)]
* The Jizyah: a tax imposed on non-Muslims (who would keep their own religion, rather than embrace Islam) will not be accepted by Jesus (peace be upon him) but all people will be required to embrace Islam and there will be no other alternative.

Meaning of "Take You"

Allah tells,
إِذْ قَالَ اللّهُ يَا عِيسَى

And (remember) when Allah said:"O Jesus

إِنِّي مُتَوَفِّيكَ وَرَافِعُكَ إِلَيَّ
I will take you and raise you to Myself,

while you are asleep.
Allah said in a similar Ayat,

وَهُوَ الَّذِى يَتَوَفَّـكُم بِالَّيْلِ

It is He Who takes your souls by night (when you are asleep). (6:60)
and,

اللَّهُ يَتَوَفَّى الاٌّنفُسَ حِينَ مِوْتِـهَا وَالَّتِى لَمْ تَمُتْ فِى مَنَامِـهَا

It is Allah Who takes away the souls at the time of their death, and those that die not during their sleep. (39:42)

The Messenger of Allah used to recite the following words when he would awaken;
الْحَمْدُ للهِ الَّذِي أَحْيَانَا بَعْدَ مَا أَمَاتَنَا وَإِلَيْهِ النُّشُور
All the thanks are due to Allah Who brought us back to life after He had caused us to die (sleep), and the Return is to Him.
Allah said,
وَبِكُفْرِهِمْ وَقَوْلِهِمْ عَلَى مَرْيَمَ بُهْتَانًا عَظِيمًا
وَقَوْلِهِمْ إِنَّا قَتَلْنَا الْمَسِيحَ عِيسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ رَسُولَ اللّهِ وَمَا قَتَلُوهُ وَمَا صَلَبُوهُ وَلَـكِن شُبِّهَ لَهُمْ وَإِنَّ الَّذِينَ اخْتَلَفُواْ فِيهِ لَفِي شَكٍّ مِّنْهُ مَا لَهُم بِهِ مِنْ عِلْمٍ إِلاَّ اتِّبَاعَ الظَّنِّ وَمَا قَتَلُوهُ يَقِينًا
بَل رَّفَعَهُ اللّهُ إِلَيْهِ وَكَانَ اللّهُ عَزِيزًا حَكِيمًا
وَإِن مِّنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ إِلاَّ لَيُوْمِنَنَّ بِهِ قَبْلَ مَوْتِهِ
وَيَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ يَكُونُ عَلَيْهِمْ شَهِيدًا


And because of their saying, "We killed Al-Masih Jesus son of Maryam, the Messenger of Allah," but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but it appeared as that to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts. They have no (certain) knowledge, they follow nothing but conjecture. For surely; they killed him not.

But Allah raised him up unto Himself. And Allah is Ever All-Powerful, All-Wise.

And there is none of the People of the Scripture, but must believe in him, before his death. And on the Day of Resurrection, he will be a witness against them. (4:156-159)

`His death' refers to Jesus and the Ayah means that;

the People of the Book will believe in Jesus, before Jesus dies. This will occur when Jesus comes back to this world before the Day of Resurrection, as we will explain.

By that time, all the People of the Book will believe in Jesus, for he will annul the Jizyah and he will only accept Islam from people.

Ibn Abi Hatim recorded that Al-Hasan said that Allah's statement,
إِنِّي مُتَوَفِّيكَ
(I will take you),

is in reference to sleep, for Allah raised Jesus while he was asleep.
Altering the Religion of Jesus

Allah said,

وَمُطَهِّرُكَ مِنَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ

And purify (save) you from those who disbelieve,

by raising you to heaven,

وَجَاعِلُ الَّذِينَ اتَّبَعُوكَ فَوْقَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ

And I will make those who follow you superior to those who disbelieve, till the Day of Resurrection.

This is what happened. When Allah raised Jesus to heaven, his followers divided into sects and groups.

Some of them believed in what Allah sent Jesus as, a servant of Allah, His Messenger, and the son of His female-servant.

However, some of them went to the extreme over Jesus, believing that he was the son of Allah.

Some of them said that Jesus was Allah Himself, while others said that he was one of a Trinity.

Allah mentioned these false creeds in the Qur'an and refuted them.

The Christians remained like this until the third century CE, when a Greek king called, Constantine, became a Christian for the purpose of destroying Christianity.

Constantine was either a philosopher, or he was just plain ignorant. Constantine changed the religion of Jesus by adding to it and deleting from it. He established the rituals of Christianity and the so-called Great Trust, which is in fact the Great Treachery. He also allowed them to eat the meat of swine, changed the direction of the prayer that Jesus established to the east, built churches for Jesus, and added ten days to the fast as compensation for a sin that he committed, as claimed. So the religion of `Isa became the religion of Constantine, who built more then twelve thousand churches, temples and monasteries for the Christians as well as the city that bears his name, Constantinople (Istanbul).

Throughout this time, the Christians had the upper hand and dominated the Jews. Allah aided them against the Jews because they used to be closer to the truth than the Jews, even though both groups were and still are disbelievers, may Allah's curse descend on them.

When Allah sent Muhammad, those who believed in him also believed in Allah, His Angels, Books and Messengers in the correct manner. So they were the true followers of every Prophet who came to earth. They believed in the unlettered Prophet, the Final Messenger and the master of all mankind, who called them to believe in the truth in its entirety. This is why they had more right to every Prophet than his own nation, especially those who claim to follow their Prophet's way and religion, yet change and alter his religion.

Furthermore, Allah abrogated all the laws that were sent down to the Prophets with the Law. He sent Muhammad with, which consists of the true religion that shall never change or be altered until the commencement of the Last Hour. Muhammad's religion shall always be dominant and victorious over all other religions. This is why Allah allowed Muslims to conquer the eastern and western parts of the world and the kingdoms of the earth.

Furthermore, all countries submitted to them; they demolished Kisra (king of Persia) and destroyed the Czar, ridding them of their treasures and spending these treasures for Allah's sake. All this occurred just as their Prophet told them it would, when he conveyed Allah's statement,

وَعَدَ اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ ءامَنُواْ مِنْكُمْ وَعَمِلُواْ الصَّـلِحَاتِ لَيَسْتَخْلِفَنَّهُمْ فِى الاْرْضِ كَمَا اسْتَخْلَفَ الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ وَلَيُمَكّنَنَّ لَهُمْ دِينَهُمُ الَّذِى ارْتَضَى لَهُمْ وَلَيُبَدّلَنَّهُمْ مّن بَعْدِ خَوْفِهِمْ أَمْناً يَعْبُدُونَنِى لَا يُشْرِكُونَ بِى شَيْياً

Allah has promised those among you who believe and do righteous good deeds, that He will certainly grant them succession in the land, as He granted it to those before them, and that He will grant them the authority to practice their religion which He has chosen for them. And He will surely give them in exchange a safe security after their fear (provided) they worship Me and do not associate anything with Me. (24:55)

Therefore, Muslims are the true believers in `Isa (Jesus) .

The Muslims then acquired Ash-Sham from the Christians, causing them to evacuate to Asia Minor, to their fortified city in Constantinople. The Muslims will be above them until the Day of Resurrection. Indeed, he, Muhammad, who is truthful and who received the true news, has conveyed to Muslims that they will conquer Constantinople in the future, and seize its treasures.

How ??
Explain!!

For many an English speaker, “belief” simply means the acknowledgment the something is true. Thus, one can be asked, “Do you believe that God exists?” and the reply may be, “Yes.” The same person may be asked a follow up question, “Does your belief in God have any influence or ramifications upon your life, your deeds and your goals?” To this question, the same person who says he believes in God will reply, “No.” Given this common scenario, the following question must be addressed: Could this type of belief possibly be equivalent to what Islam means by, for example, “belief in one God ”?
The foundation of one’s Islam starts with what is in one’s heart and one’s beliefs. Thus, Islam has put a great emphasis on what to believe in, At the same time, though, Islam also stresses what “belief” is supposed to be. Belief, from an Islamic perspective, cannot be something that a person claims is in his heart while it has no influence on the person’s life and behavior. On the contrary, the beliefs in the heart should be the driving force behind everything the individual does. The true and effective beliefs never remain at an abstract level but their influence is manifested on a day-to-day practical level. To take a simple example, the question of cheating and stealing is directly related to one’s overall belief system. If a person believes that these acts are morally wrong and that there is an all-knowing, just God who will hold him accountable for his deeds, he will most likely refrain from such acts. But if a person does not believe in any eternal ramifications or any day of judgment, his deciding factor may only be the chances of being caught and the severity of the punishment for those acts.

In fact, true belief in the Oneness of God does much more than make a person realize the negative or positive ramifications of an act. As a person develops in his faith and his beliefs become stronger, his faith molds the very way he looks at thing. His love for something and his hatred for something is determined by his beliefs about that thing. For example, when he recognizes that God loves something, he realizes that that thing must be wonderful and also deserving of his love. On the contrary, if God dislikes something, the individual realizes that that thing must be filled with traits that are deserving of his dislike as well.

Belief in the Oneness of God: Muslims believe that God is the creator of all things, and that God is all-powerful and all-knowing. God has no offspring, no race, no gender, no body, and is unaffected by the characteristics of human life.
Belief in the Prophets or Messengers of God: Muslims believe that God’s guidance has been revealed to humankind through specially appointed messengers, or prophets, throughout history, beginning with the first man, Adam, who is considered the first prophet. Twenty-five of these prophets are mentioned by name in the Quran, including Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Jesus. Muslims believe that Muhammad is the last in this line of prophets, sent for all humankind with the message of Islam.

the invitation of the Prophet Muhammad was based on these main points:
1. The only supreme authority that all mankind must adhere to is that of God ,
2. It is necessary to obey the prophets who represent this supreme authority,
3. The laws and regulations that order human life and guide it comprise only the principles set by God .

Another important point in the call of Prophet Muhammad is that he is the last Prophet.

before the Holy Prophet Muhammad.  As will be understood by these statements, the Prophets Moses, Jesus, Muhammad and all the other prophets, in both their calls and the missions they took on, are no different from one another in terms of fulfilling their duties. The ayah, “[All these messengers] gave good news as well as warning, that mankind, after (the coming) of the messengers, should have no plea against God,” (an-Nisa, 4:165) expresses this reality.

In addition to calling to Oneness of God, prophets and messengers are the persons most worthy of obedience. Thus in an ayah Almighty God says, “We sent not an messenger but to be obeyed, in accordance with the will of God .” (an-Nisa, 4:64)

And one mission of the prophets is to ensure that the religion will prevail. We understand this from the ayah, “It is He Who hath sent His Messenger with guidance and the Religion of Truth, to proclaim it over all religion.” (at-Tawba, 9:33)

It is the greatest of catastrophes for a person to set aside being a servant of God, following their own desires and pursuing different principles. And like the other divine books, the Noble Qur’an was sent down to avoid this disaster, and as it was this was the reason for the messengers’ arrival. The Noble Qur’an draws attention to this point in many of its ayahs, thus explaining the aim in sending the messengers. We need to think reflect deeply upon the ayah, “We only send the messengers as bearers of good news and as warners. But with false arguments the disbelievers seek to confute the truth, treating My revelations and My warnings as a jest.” (al-Kahf, 18:56). No matter how different the tongues were of the messengers that Almighty God sent to every corner of the earth, their religion had always been Islam (total submission to the will of God) . The ayah “The (religion) in the sight of God is Islam (total submission to the will of God ) ” (Al-i Imran, 3:19)

A believer is the one who believes that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life and that no one can come to the Father, except by Him.
So people (Adam, Eve, Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, Solomon etc) that came before Jesus will enter hell because they don't have Jesus? 🤔

By opening the car door and bonnet they are helping the fire.
There are three element of fire 🔥 Fuel, Heat and oxygen. And if any one of these element is missing there can never be fire.
All fires can be extinguished by cooling, smothering, starving.
Cooling is by removing the Heat or temperature by using water.
Smothering is by removing the Oxygen or air by using fire blanket to cover the fire.
Starving is by removing the fuel or combustible materials

Salam alaekum waramotullahi Wabarakatuhu

Please, I have posted here sometimes ago that I am sincerely interested in meeting a devoted Muslim sister, well, It seems there are no single Muslim sister any longer. I am becoming tired looking for Muslim single sister to marry. I know I am over due for this for now, I could not progress career wise because there is no focus again as marriage is my priority.
Though, there was a sister that message me through one of my post here but due to genotype and blood group incompatibility, we could not go further.
I base in Lagos, I am public servant with Lagos State government.
Any sister from any tribe between 24- 30years will be appreciated
I am AS, interested in AA genotype
I need a niqab sister or anyone that dress modestly in the public.
She must be a caring, God fearing and supportive sister.

Wa'alaykum salaam warahmotulahi brother as you can see this forum is not a matchmaking site. So if you are truly looking for who to marry is better you meet your local imam or any other muslimeen in your area that will help you to get what you are looking for.

You asked WAS CHRIST A CHRISTIAN and to help your career, I advised you to use google to help you out on the meaning of a Christian but it's quite unfortunate that you're quoting where the disciples were first called Christian

Back to your gullible question, WAS CHRIST A CHRISTIAN... From your above write-up, you said those CHRIST WORSHIPER, I will use this (CHRIST WORSHIPER) to address your gullible

Since you know that Jesus Christ followers are CHRISTIANS, why asking stupid question that WAS CHRIST A CHRISTIAN?

Your name is Haines and you have many followers that are worshipping you, bobo CAN YOU THAT PEOPLE ARE WORSHIPING STILL WORSHIP YOURSELF?

Second example, You have many followers of Facebook, IG, NL, etc CAN YOU THE OWNER OF THIS FACEBOOK PAGE STILL FOLLOW YOURSELF on this same fb page?

WAS CHRIST A CHRISTIAN when the word Christian means someone who follows the teachings of Jesus Christ, can you follow yourself or worship yourself? Absolutely NO so therefore Jesus Christ is NOT a Christian

Bros dey think next time before having discussion or interaction with me because I will use your weak point to expose your ignorant and gullible


During JESUS there was no christianity, no christian, no church, no bibles and no Sunday, where they came from?!🧠
