Absolutely not. Islam is not an "anti-Christian" religion. Allah and the God of Christianity and Judiasm are one and the same. Muslims do not believe that Jesus was the son of God, but Muhammed viewed and taught that Jesus was a great prophet. In that context, the Koran can be even viewed as a logical extention of the New Testament. Islam is a religion of peace, and the idea of "jihad" is grossly overstated. Simply described, the concept of jihad is God's permission to the Muslims to defend themselves. The interpretation of jihad is not much different, in fact, to the interpretation of Chirst's statement "I come not to bring peace, but to bring a sword." The conflict we are currently in is political, economic and cultural in nature. Religion is being used as a justification to get people to fight, much like it was in the Crusades. Don't be fooled by the anti-Islamic propaganda. We are not, nor should we be, at war with Islam. The vast majority of Muslims do not hate Christians. You can draw a comparison between the anti-Westerners who happen to be Muslims and militant hate groups like the KKK, who happen to be Christians. If the KKK hate minority groups, do all Christians hate minority gorups? Of course not.

In the Islamic faith, there is no such thing as the ultimate Messiah.
We do believe that Jesus was a messiah and a prophet due to the fact that he was sent to the Jews to save them from their own actions.
We do believe that God is the real saviour and no man can have the power to save anyone.
So the concept of a messiah in islam is different than that in both Judaism and Christianity.

No. Non means NOT and anti means AGAINST. There is a big difference between not being something and being against it. Muslims are not against Christians, they simply are NOT Christian.

Since when are NON-Christian and ANTI-Christian synonymous? Just because we don't have the same ideas of faith, doesn't mean we want you to stop yours.

the belief of the antichrist is that he's a pretend messiah pretending to be the actual one, so he will dupe human beings into questioning Jesus is returned. he will additionally help many human beings yet deny them the desirable salvation from God.

By that logic, all non-Jews are inherently anti-Jewish. Your logic is either flawed, or Jews have the right to hate everyone else..

according to an old middle eastern legend, Allah and Jehova were once best friends. I think thats why Islam and christianity are so much alike.
