Answer 1

Right. They all worship the One True God, written and spelled differently in Aramaic and in Arabic. All monotheistic religions are basically one and the same.

Answer 2

You know I used to think You were a provocateur but the way You reach out to the Good folk is really impressive and I've adjusted my opinion considerably. I don't expect this to make any difference to You nor for that matter should it but it's made a difference to me and how I perceive others and I feel a compulsion to thank You for that. This is a rare event in my life because as a generalization I'm rather irrelevant, I just don't care very much one way or the other about much; I'm a happy go lucky kind of guy. So then, I do believe Your correct in this; both faiths are People of the Book and it is very apparent the tenants and direction is the same path. Good for You Kiddo, perhaps there is hope for all mankind after all.

Answer 3

The insecure will always deny the links between Judaism, Christianity and Islam. They for justification will grab their book and wave it around saying "It says in here that all other religions are false!"

Of course the fact that these three religions grew out of the same area of the world, use the same creation myth and call upon the same God, by different names, always gets swept to the side.

Question, who was it that said there would be no more prophets? Was it Jesus? Nope, it was Paul. The part about beware false prophets could have been in reference to Paul.

Answer 4

I am a Christian, and I know some fellow Christians that are closed minded to the Islam faith. But, I am learning daily about Islam because I want to learn about what others believe, so I have become very open minded. I am learning to be more tolerant of all religions and faiths that people choose.

Answer 5

With respect Muslimah the devil also believes in the above.Know this if Jesus didn't die on a cross then I would have no religion.That takes Islam and Christianity worlds apart.

Answer 6

"And one can not believe unless allah will it"

The thing is, no one questions "why?". Who could have known the outcome?

"Little thought do you give"

Not you per se, but mankind on a whole. Me included.

"When allah intends a thing, HE says be. And it is"

The reason-"Allah knows what all knows not"

As salamun alaikum

EDIT: I ask myself this question every now and then for thought. Can a person tell a blind man that the sky is blue? How can you go about it trying to explain it and having him comprehend it? And on the same hand, if he were to tell you something deep about life, would you really understand what he was trying to say?

Answer 7

Ok, better elaborations. As I replied earlier, most of that list is what Christians believe. To most of us, Islam is another religion. You're strong in your faith, good for you.

However, it's the way we believe that makes the difference. We stop at Jesus, you have Mohammad. YOu have to admit, the media is not very kind to your religion (I have yet to see it protray a good Muslim), though it is not very kind to mine either (Again, have yet to see it protray a good Christian). A lot of people don't want to learn beyond what they are taught. I may never convert to Islam, but I like hearing about your views.

Answer 8

Islam and Christianity are extremely similar. They are both cults based on the lie that some god farted the universe into existence all at once and that you have to suck up to this god by stroking it's ego by worshiping it in a highly proscribed manner or you will be punished for eternity in a lake of fire. Anyone who can swallow this pile of bilge has no right to have any power over any other human being for any reason.

Answer 9

Yes they can see but they can't accept it as they don't accept the Muhammad(pbuh) as next to Jesus(pbuh), Well i think they know but accepting this means accepting Muhammad(pbuh) as a prophet and this goes against their religion.

Answer 10

Basically, Christianity only recognizes itself as the true faith. And there are some false "religious sects" in Christianity. We do recognize Judaism as the "fore runner" of Christianity, but believe the Jews missed it when Jesus came to the world.

Answer 11

Yes, Christianity is closed to islam, or they are not true christians. Why follow a false religion?
Matthew 7:15
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

Islam's allah was nothing more than a throw away idol. The present meaning of a word is irrelevant to what it meant in ancient times. The word "Allah" is a good example. When confronted by the historical evidence that the word was used by pagan Arabs in pre-Islamic times to refer to a high god who was married to the sun-goddess and had three daughters, some Muslims will quote dictionaries, encyclopedias, etc. to prove that "Allah means God." They are thus using modern definitions to define what the word meant over a thousand years ago! What "Allah" means now has no bearing on what it meant before Muhammad.
muhammed was a liar and a pedophile. Many of his prophecies failed making him a liar, which islam says a prophet cannot be! He went to the pagan kabba, went through 350 idols and found allah and declared it the god of islam. Islam's allah was nothing more than a throw away idol. Some Muslims have claimed that the word "Allah" is in the Bible because the Biblical word "Allelujah." They then mispronounce the word as "Allah-lujah" But "Allelujah" is not a compound Arabic word with "Allah" being the first part of the word. It is a Hebrew word with the name of God being "JAH" (or Yahweh) and the verb "alle" meaning "praise to." It means "praise to Yahweh." The Arabic word "Allah" is not in the word.
The same error is found in the Muslim argument that the word "Baca" (Psa. 94:6) really means "Mecca." The valley of Baca is in northern Israel.
the quran is a book made over 100 years after mohammed. A book NOT in its original form because all the draft copies were burned under fear of death. A book claiming lineage to Abraham from Ishmael, and that since Ishmael was born before Isaac, he was the firstborn and the one taken to the mountain. God did NOT recognize Ishmael as the firstborn though as he was born out of wedlock. Abraham was to sacrifice his son as proof to God of his faith. The Lord stopped him from doing that though as we know. That being the case, a sacrifice had to be as pure as possible. Ishmael being born out of wedlock did not fit the bill, this was overlooked for the blessings to come by God. Isaac fit perfectly! More here...
