Islam and jehovah witnesses, your reasoning has serious implications on the almight of God.
This is my reasoning. Both religions claim the bible was corrupted and twisted by evil men, and therefore does not contain the full truth.
The islam solve this by adding the koran to there religion. koran claims to have the last given revelation and makes corrections on the bible.
In the NWT, Jesus is portrait as semi god like creature. Godly but created. They added the name Jehovah into the NT to show Jesus was not God.
Anyway, both religions claim that there god is almighty.
But how does that hold if man was able to corrupt Gods given truth in the first place? Obviously God was in there eyes not able to keep the truth from being corrupted by His own creation. So although they put up a smoke screen of words by shouting allah, or Jehovah is allmighty, in there reasoning htey deny God to be almighty.
Either God is almighty or he is not. So how does that hold?

Thank you for your clarification. I will try to answer this from Qur'an without disrespect to Christianity and Judaism.
Qur'an is very well preserved message of God and He has taken the responsibility to guard this message. Qur'an confirms three previous scriptures which were given to Jews Pslams, Torah and Gospel. Again I will aviod to put my judgement on the message. Qur'an confirms the previous Prophets and most of the stories of Torah and Gospel without much details. Qur'an also command us not to make a judgement about Jews and Christians for the purpose of argument. The conclusion after reading some subjects in Torah and Gospel is that all three religions have the same God. Keep following what you find appropriate according to you understanding without creating hatred and trying to prove that our God is the right one. The truth is that it is the same God they are following. Christians know Him as father and Muslims and Jews know Him as God.

words given to men are easily corrupted. we have the option of free will and it so happens that those previous people thought it might be fun to skew the word of god to suit their own needs. if god were to interfere then the whole premise of free will would be faulty. just goes to show you that even IF god were to tell us the truth. man would find someway to screw it up for their own gains. both the other religions would CLAIM the bible was false in order to gather more supporters, kind of like dirty politics. so there's a simple reasoning to that debate

hi :) in certainty, the Koran is God's speech to human beings. Quran isn't a notice of guy. it is the notice of the writer >> The God, the only God in this worldwide. the only that created you, me and all people, and each thing. comparable for all previous scriptures (Torah, Bible ..etc), they have been all God's speech to human. God's messengers used to maintain those scriptures right into a written variety (for this reason the notice scriptures). So human beings of those days used to "accuse" messengers via telling them : "it relatively is not God speech, this would be a e book youwrote with your palms" So God desperate to despatched his final messenger Muhammad as "illitrate" ! sure, it is genuine that prophet Muhammad peace be upon him is did no longer understand the thank you to jot down. notwithstanding he's the instructor of the full worldwide, he did no longer even write a notice in his life. God despatched Jibril ( a holly angel) to teach Muhammad PBUH the Quran. Prophet Muhammad used to memorize each verse that Jibril taught him. so as all his collegues, they memorized the Quran, The Quran became into no longer written into papers different than "after" the dying of prophet Muhammad peace upon him. this would be a considered necessary factor to be conscious. ___________________________________ yet another inportant factor is : The Quran has very extensive apporach. The Quran has large meaning that suits in many scopes of life, no longer in straightforward terms religious ones. The Quran isn't comparable to the different e book, Arabian Muslims now and back choose "further translation and clarification" to a pair verses of the Quran. some Islamic researchers and pupils would get a PhD in "clarification and interpretation" of a few verses of the Quran, it relatively is Arabic to Arabic. no longer in straightforward terms like the present fake variations of Torah and bibles in the present day. The Quran is amazingly deep and dense e book with many data, that have continuously been got here upon, on a daily basis. So decide for any tafseer, and solid success. choose you the terrific.

Why do anti-Witnesses repeatedly try to manufacture some connection between the Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses (their full name) and Muslims? Because it is easier to insult and demean and name-call than it is to reason from the Scriptures.
Anti-Witness religious propagandists repeatedly pretend that Jehovah's Witnesses are not Christian, or are a "cult". In fact, Jehovah's Witnesses teach that no salvation occurs without Christ, that accepting Christ's sacrifice is a requirement for true worship, that every prayer must acknowledge Christ, that Christ is the King of God's Kingdom, that Christ is the head of the Christian congregation, that Christ is immortal and above every creature, even that Christ was the 'master worker' in creating the universe! Both secular dictionaries and disinterested theologians acknowledge that Jehovah's Witnesses are a Christian religion.
The Trinitarian arguments are intended to insult and demean Jehovah's Witnesses, rather than to give a Scripturally accurate understanding of the term "Christian".
In fact, the bible most closely associates being "Christian" with preaching about Christ and Christ's teachings. Review all the times the bible uses the term "Christian" and note that the context connects the term with:
"declaring the good news"
'teaching quite a crowd'
'open eyes, turn from dark to light'
"uttering sayings of truth"
"persuade"
"keep on glorifying"
(Acts 11:20-26) [The early disciples of Jesus] began talking to the Greek-speaking people, declaring the good news of the Lord Jesus... and taught quite a crowd, and it was first in Antioch that the disciples were by divine providence called Christians.
(Acts 26:17-28) [Jesus said to Paul] I am sending you, to open their eyes, to turn them from darkness to light and from the authority of Satan to God... Paul said: “I am not going mad, Your Excellency Festus, but I am uttering sayings of truth and of soundness of mind. ...Do you, King Agrippa, believe the Prophets? I know you believe.” But Agrippa said to Paul: “In a short time you would persuade me to become a Christian.”
(1 Peter 4:14-16) If you are being reproached for the name of Christ, you are happy... But if he suffers as a Christian, let him not feel shame, but let him keep on glorifying God in this name
So why do anti-Witnesses try to hijack the term "Christian" and hide its Scriptural implications? Because anti-Witnesses recognize that it is the preaching work that makes it clear that the relatively small religion of Jehovah's Witnesses are by far the most prominent followers of Christ:
(Matthew 28:19,20) Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit, teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded

the bible HAS been twisted by men. if you really knew your religion (which i assume is Christianity) you would know that men have changed it over the years to make their own lives easier. the bible is no longer in its original context.
