Answer 2

The difference between theses two religions is that when a question like this is posted, you find the muslims will actually answer you in a respectful, factual manner. Whereas the Non-Muslims will generally bring down and mock Islam trying to Justify their own beliefs of what is true.

Answer 3

Jesus

Jesus died and rose from the dead
Jesus never fought
When Jesus heard from God he went to the desert to be tempted and began his ministry with boldness, (Mark 1:14-15).
Jesus claimed to be God (John 8:24; 8:58) as well as a man.
Jesus claimed to be the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6).
Received instructions from God the Father (John 5:19)
Jesus never killed anyone
Jesus had the power to take life, but never did. He restored it.
No one ever died in Jesus' presence

Devils Prophet Mohammed

Muhammad died and stayed dead.
Muhammad fought many many times
When Muhammad heard from God (through an angel) he cowered, was uncertain, and wanted to commit suicide (Quran 74:1-5)
Muhammad claimed to be a man.
Received instructions from an angel
Muhammad killed many
Muhammad had the power to take life, but he never restored life.
Many people died in Muhammad's presence -- he killed them.
Muhammad had over 20 wives and even married a nine year old girl.
Muhammad received his words in the darkness of a cave.
Muhammad taught for more than 20 years
Muhammad's only alleged miracle was the Quran.
Muhammad did not fulfill any biblical prophecy except the ones about false teachers (Matt. 24:24).
Muhammad saved his own life many times and had others killed.
Muhammad was a sinner (Quran 40:55; 48:1-2)
Muhammad owned slaves.
Muhammad was not virgin born.
Muhammad did not receive or hear the direct voice of God. It was an angel instead. (2 Corinthians 11:14)
Muhammad said women were were 1/2 as smart as men (Hadith 3:826; 2:541), that the majority in hell will be women (Had. 1:28,301; 2:161; 7:124), and that women could be mortgaged.


There is no comparison between Jesus and Muhammad. Muhammad falls so far short, that he cannot be held on any level remotely close to Jesus. Muhammad is clearly inferior to Christ.

7.we believe that jesus is the messiah (but muslims do not regard him as the savior on the cross.only that he will rescue us one day)

Answer 5

Christians believe Jesus is The Christ and died to save our sins. islam says that Jesus was never crucified, denying our Lord and history. They instead believe in Muhammad as their prophet.

Christians believe in free will given to us by God. We choose to believe or not to believe. Islam does not give you the choice. You cannot leave islam except by running for your life.

Christians can date and find love and get married. Muslims cannot date.

Christianity is about love and tolerance. Islam is about submission. Submission to their God, submission to their faith or else, submission of women.

Answer 6

There is only one similarity. Monotheists.

Other than that...they are completely different.

Christianity:

Jesus is God.
Trinity: Father, Son, Holy Spirit
Love one another and Jesus has loved us.
Salvation is a gift, not earned.
The Great Commission: Spread the news of Jesus. ((No brow beating or killing if they choose not to believe.)
No orgies in Heaven, we will be spirit.

Answer 7

Abraham is the father of both

Monotheistic

Both hold Jerusalem as a holy palce

Answer 8

We (as Muslims) accept Jesus Son of Mary as a messenger, as revelead to us in the Holy Qu'ran, and don't believe that he was crucified for your sins.

[004:157] And because of their saying (in boast), "We killed Messiah 'Îsâ (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), the Messenger of Allâh," – but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but it appeared so to them [the resemblance of 'Îsâ (Jesus) was put over another man (and they killed that man)], 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 [i.e. 'Îsâ (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary) ['alayhis-salâm]]:

[004:158] But Allâh raised him ['Îsâ (Jesus)] up (with his body and soul) to Himself (and he ['alayhis-salâm] is in the heavens). And Allâh is Ever All-Powerful, All-Wise.

[004:159] And there is none of the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) but must believe in him ['Îsâ (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), as only a Messenger of Allâh and a human being] before his ['Îsâ (Jesus) ['alayhis-salâm] or a Jew's or a Christian's] death (at the time of the appearance of the angel of death). And on the Day of Resurrection, he ['Îsâ (Jesus)] will be a witness against them.

These verses clearly explain, the blasphemy, in the Bible about how Jesus Son of Mary supposedly said, "O God, Why have you forsaken me!"

Why would such a holy man, say such a thing, and according to christian doctrine if he was God, then it completely makes no sense. Obviously it wasn't Jesus on the cross.

We know that Jesus Son of Mary will descend again and show mankind how astray they have gone.

Good Day

Answer 9

In the name of Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful.

He has sent down to thee the Book containing the truth and fulfilling that which precedes it; and He has sent down the Torah and the Gospel before this, as a guidance to the people; and He has sent down the Discrimination.

Surely, We sent down the Torah wherein was guidance and light. By it did the Prophets, who were obedient to US, judge for the Jews, as did the godly people and those learned in the Law, because they were required to preserve the Book of God, and because they were guardians over it. Therefore fear not men but fear ME; and barter not My signs for a paltry price. And whoso judges not by that which God has sent down, these it is who are the disbelievers.

Say, 'O People of the Book, you stand on nothing until you observe the Torah and the Gospel and what has now been sent down to you from your Lord.' And surely what has been sent down to thee from thy Lord will increase many of them in rebellion and disbelieve; so grieve not for the disbelieving people.

We are right and they are wrong. I'm a Christian. But I do not treat other persons of different religions rudely. I just am confident where I stand.
