The moon god. (Just like the "bedowin' (sp.) culture in that region still do today.) The word Allah simply means "The God."
Abraham (a Bible Prophet), left Ur (a city) of the Chaldeans to leave that type of worship and people whom worship that false diety! The God of Abraham has a name, it is Jehovah!
Question?
How could they have got it so wrong?
They are a beautiful, powerful and passionate people...
I think that is why the devil works so hard to confuse them.
I love muslims.
Jesus Christ is not a Prophet. He is the Messiah and Christ that the Prophets prophesied about. Jesus fulfilled the prophesies as Christ.
I love all of the Muslims enough to share the Truth with them...
What have you done to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ?
Do not start hating or get defensive, I do this kindly in love.
The Quaran even says in a surah "search for the Truth"
Jesus Christ of Nazereth is the Truth, the Light and the Way.
God bless you this Holy Season... XOXOX

The pagan Arabs worshiped the moon god by praying toward mecca several times running around the Temple of the moon god called the Kaaba killing an animal in sacrifice to the moon god throwing stones at the fasting for the month which begging and end with the crescent moon giving alms to the poor. The muslin's claim that allah is the God of the Bible and that islam arose the religion of prophet and apostles refuted by solid,overwhelming archaeological evidence. Islam is nothing more than a reveal of the ancient moon god cult. It has taken the symbols, the rites, the ceremonies, and even the name of its god from the ancient pagan religion of the moon god. It is sheer ideology and must be rejected by all those who follow the Torah and Gospel.

Ironically, cross worship is also of pagan origin, and cross worship also dishonors and displeases Almighty God.
Jesus almost certainly died while impaled on a simple stake, rather than a cross of two intersecting beams. Of course the Romans had the ability to create such devices, and probably did. But ask yourself: why they would have bothered when a simple stake would have worked just as well or better?
It is also enlightening to examine other relevant Scriptures.
You may be interested to see how your own copy of the bible translates Acts 5:30, Galatians 3:13, Deuteronomy 21:22, 23, and Acts 10:39. The King James, Revised Standard, Dyaglott, and Jerusalem Bible translate the instrument of Christ's death simply as "stake" or "tree" because the original wording simply does not support the idea that this was more than a piece of upright wood.
It is also eye-opening to examine how the first-century Christians felt about idols of any kind, much less one that glorified an instrument of death.

The crescent was the symbol adopted by later caliphates and Muslim rulers as an established and recognized symbol of power in Western Asia. It was also a symbol of the Ottoman Empire. Though the crescent was originally a secular symbol of authority for Muslim rulers, it is now often used to symbolize the Islamic faith. The crescent shape is also used in the Pakistani flag (symbolising progress) and a white five-pointed star (symbolising light, knowledge and wisdom).

Educate yourself before you attack other religions, lady.
What you do is not an act of love, but act of ignorance. I'm not Muslim, but I know enough about it to say without a doubt your are ignorant. Read a book before you attack. Only a lunatic clams they have all answers and are a danger to them self and others.
You should probably read your bible again. Jesus didn't belittle other religions, you shouldn't either.
If you want to talk about pagan practices being absorbed, then you need to look at your own religion. I can go on all day about your practices that belonged to another religion before it. Educate yourself, lady!

The crescent moon was the symbol of the old Ottoman Empire. I got this from a History Channel documentary. As an Islamic symbol it doesn't go back as far as you say.

i don't know who told you that stuff but he really should see a doctor
and before u say any thing about other religion's think!!!
and i don't understand how people can believe that there is more than 1 god
lets get real (if there is more than one god the universe will be damaged for example if one god said that he want to create a new planet and another one said that he don't want to what do u think well happen)
in another time please think before saying anything like this

The star and crescent is not an official symbol of Islam, it was the symbol of the Ottoman Empire...
So someone else already said that, but I'll leave it for emphasis.

Always remember that basic belief of a Muslim is that God is one and Holy Prophet is his last prophet. There is no question of any deviation for a Muslim. It should be clear to every one.

You say that you love Muslims, but you insult them in such a way. You call them confused and say that their religion is wrong. You are the kind of people that deserves to be in one of those head videos. Who are you to say that your religion is right? Who are you to say that Christ is the truth? What if you are wrong and they are right? I guess I will see you in hell next to me?
