Muhammad really was a violent man.

Omer: Muhammad was hardly George Washington leading freedom fighters against tyranny.

The Jews did not buy Muhammad's claim of prophethood and they were slaughtered and enslaved by Muhammad.

Violence in and of itself is not necessary bad. We use violence against those who would threaten our kids. Or wars that stem the tide of wicked leaders.

However, there is other violence done in the name of religion. The Crusades were a bloody and violent action done in the name of the Christian religion. Contrary to the Bible's "freely give" and be "gentle as doves" teachings--they went by the word of the popes. ie man.

The Crusades took place because the Roman Catholic Church translated the Bible into Latin, locked it up behind gates and said, "Thus and thus is what God says." From this we got inquisitions, crusades, indulgences and the like.

When the reformation translated the Bible into German and English, the average person could stand up to the evil popery and say "No!" for the Bible says thus and thus. Then the killing and fleecing soon stopped.

Today, the Qu'ran cannot be translated because it is a high and holy form of Arabic. The teachers say the Qu'ran commands to make Jihad against the infidels. They honor woman and children blowing themselves up to kill the innocent. Is that what the Qu'ran truly teaches? Will someone stand up and say "No"?

So, as you can see, when man has an agenda of violence, it really does not matter what their book says. The tree is known by its fruit.

I hope my explanations won't be misunderstood in any way.

Actually, the Qur'an mentioned this event in some verses. But I don't remember the exact verses.
Before Jesus died, the bible actually mentioned about this prophecy after Jesus. Christians in those days believed so and did not argue about this. It was when Jesus still walks the earth. 600 years later, a prophet came. The real problem was, he was an Arab. Most white people could not accept this, because they have had many white prophets throughout time. According to the Qur'an, most of the prophet that God sent was white people. Qur'an calls white people as Bani Israili. These white people at that time refused to believe that Mohammed was who the bible meant by being the last prophet, because Mohammed was not from their own race. Those people that time feels that they are the most special race because of this matter. So the arguing begins. Most people who did not believe, make several changes to the bible, especially about the prophecy and organized the churches. That is why you cannot find about Mohammed in the bible. Then, some time later, the bible has the 2nd edition called New Testament. I don't know why this happens, anyway.
Mohammed had lots of trouble in spreading Islam throughout the world, because there were Christians before he was born. But Jesus did not get trouble spreading Christianity because there were no majority religion before him. If it was the other way around, Mohammed came first before Jesus, Jesus would do the same. So, those who do not believe in Islam was not slaughtered, but those who confronts it do. This is where Jihad came from.

I hope I do not get any hostile comments after this. lol

for all of u who are saying that Muhammad was violent, then i guess Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, Ulyssys S. Grant, and other war ministers were "violent" too. so in ur eyes, anyone in the army or involved with the army is violent and not worthy of prophethood. how hypocritical...and u all make me laugh for those of u who wonder why the Bible never mentions Muhammad..wow. Muhammad was born 600 years AFTER the Bible, so how can the Bible include him??

The God of the Bible did NOT send Muhammad. I don't think Muhammad is even mentioned in the Bible.

That seems like an argument of faith and belief.
One could also ask why God would send such a pacifistic prophet, namely Jesus. Jesus and Muhammad...two sides of the coin?
Are both charlatans? Isn't Jesus the epitome of a Liberal Democrat?
You know, take care of the your people, feed the poor, healthcare for everyone? Hmm.... does that mean Republicans really hate what Jesus stood for? I seem to have missed the "kill enemies of Democracy" section in the New Testament.

-Sorry...just being a little silly. :)

even notwithstanding they're regularly said to be an similar, the God of Muhammed and "the God " of the bible are thoroughly diverse. in case you study the historic past of how the prophet Muhammed took administration interior the Muslim society is frantically on the point of what we as Christians search for suggestion from from as "demon possession". Muhammed turned right into a classic kin oriented guy, until eventually in some unspecified time sooner or later a voice observed as out to him at the same time as he became vacationing residing house by the Mouton areas of the middle east. historic past pronounces that Muhammeds first reaction to the voice he heard became that it became an- evil spirit, because the voice grew to develop into extra overwhelming, Muhammed began to harken to it really is call. The voice advised him that it became "god" the in effortless words "god", and that he became choosing him to be a voice to a particular united states of america. That voice became certainly the voice of devil. As you could already comprehend Jesus died to liven up the entire EARTH ,no longer to a particular human beings. So, to respond to your question God the daddy had no longer some thing to do with Muhammed's message to the Arabic united states of america. What Jesus died for, can no longer and is in simple terms no longer replaced. wish this helps. :)

He didn't. You answered your own question...

" ... Contradictory to the Bible."
God is not a liar, and the bible is God's word, If people who claim to be of God and thier actions do not stand up to the bible, then they are against God.

He didn't. The Qur'an has errors, so the claim that it is the word of god cannot be maintained; the only possible conclusion is that the thing is a fraud. But the bible contains more errors than the Qur'an.
