Abraham used to pray like a muslim?

Question

when muslims fell down on their faces while praying, that's how you should pray to God. as Abraham the father of all the prophets, he did the same thing.

Genesis
17:3 And Abraham fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying,

why don't you pray like Abraham?

Answer 1

Do you honestly think only Muslims pray this way? You are very mistaken.

Answer 2

The God of Islam is a different God than the one of Abraham. Hagar, mother of Ishmael, saw God & lived. That is the God of Abraham. This God is the LORD God.

Abraham gave a tythe to the High Priest Melchizadek the priest of the Most High God (El Elyon). Jesus is the High Priest of the Christian faith after the order of Melchezadek. I believe it was Jesus who Hagar saw also, who blessed Ishmael. Adonay Yahweh (LORD) talked to Abraham. I AM the Almighty God (El Shadday). Also Abraham's God is called Elohym (plural = Trinity).

Bowing down to Mecca 5 times a day will just make a mark in your forhead.

I will bow to my God who is the God of Abraham as the Spirit leads. I will pray & / or worship in spirit & truth, for Jesus directed how to seek / love God.

Answer 3

Abraham has nothing to do with the evil that is islam... Abraham will be in the army that ultimatly destroys islam and all of the evil of this world.

Prayer to The One True God may be made at any time, in any way, from any place and any positon necessary. The only requirement is True Faith.

Answer 4

Abraham also provided sacrifices to God and offered Issac as a sacrifice. This was an example Of the ultimate sacrifice which was for all and forever. Issac was the sacrifice that represented the sacrifice that Jesus made. Jesus was the lamb that God provided.Abraham talked to God physicaly which we do not we speak with God in spirit. Now should a man decided to prostrate himself it is not taught against but Jesus who was God taught prayer as in the lords prayer we no longer worship in ritual that represents the truth but we now live in the truth and the grace according to the teachings of Jesus Christ out lord.When Abraham was to sacrifice Issac it and all the sacrifices made in that day they were rituals which represented the coming of Christ the true lamb of God those who are still under the law are still folling rituals. those who truly know God have the truth and know the truth and are not under laws and do not follow rituals that represented the truth such as salvation we now have salvation available to us through the atonement of Jesus Christ.

Answer 5

Abraham was not a Muslim.

Neither was Jesus.

Neither prayed to a rock in the sand. Sorry.

Answer 6

True. Abraham prayed the correct way. Muslims should not only copy Abraham's way of prayer but should also practice his of life. Abraham never killed harmless people. Never!

Answer 7

Technically, Christians or Catholics can pray on their face, sitting down, on their knees, with their hands in the air, with their noses against a wall, heads bowed, heads up, hands folded, hands unfolded, walking down the street, whatever floats the boat.
To Christians and Catholics, praying is about talking to God the position one does that in is kind of obselete. It's about talking to God, not following rules.

Answer 8

Muslims believe that the word of God (e.g. the Torah) were sent down in the process the an prolonged time by utilising various messengers (i.e. prophets like Abraham and Jesus), despite the fact that it were altered by utilising guy. Islam grew to become a appropriate faith whilst the final prophet Muhammed (peace be upon him) gained the word of God - the appropriate, unaltered series is the Qu'ran. interior the era in the previous the Qu'ran replaced into printed to Muhammed (peace be upon him), Muslims nonetheless believe that the prophets sent in the previous him have been sent by utilising the comparable God (Allah). it extremely is, we believe Abraham (as with the others) replaced into Muslim too whether Islam wasn't a appropriate faith in the process that factor. The Qu'ran is a holy e book which prescribes the code of habit for all Muslims. ideally, all Muslims could try in direction of maximum efficient lives in accordance to the Qu'ran and the movements (which is composed of prayer) of prophet Muhammed (peace be upon him).

Answer 9

yea thats true.
Jesus (and all other prophets) was also praying as muslims, and used to fast like muslims. just christians dont wanna admit this, or may be they dont know; becauze priests r denying this.
