at a considerable disadvantage? And, alternatively, if by only believing in Allah and Mohammed as his prophet do you get into muslim heaven, isn't this an unfair disadvantage for the people brought up as christians?
Surely God would not send people to hell on the basis of a religion they were not brought up with

Firstly to say there is no muslim hell or muslim heaven, Its just the same hell and Heaven for all Human beings, whos lived in this world.
Apparantely all believers of Allah and the prophet Muhamed (pbuh) do not go to heaven, Only people who believe and also practise go to heaven. those are the perfect people, and also there is nobody perfect in the world everyone has committed sins konwingly and unknowingly, So that's why God if mercifull.
It is said that the best human is the one who regrets his sins and wrong doings. and ask for forgiveness.
Hope this would clarify. thanks

No one is guaranteed heaven or hell just by believing in a particular faith.
God Almighty is not Unjust, He will deal with everyone by their own merits, deeds, intentions, and their ability to search for the truth and live their life as truthfully as they can and not in ignorance
By the way there is no such thing as Muslim heaven, there is only One God, One heaven, One hell.

Nothing exists in isolation there is God and the Devil Good and Evil how you perceive them is for you to work out if God made me than I am as God made me I have free will and a conscience I have the intelligence to know right from wrong I believe god loves us all Cristian's Muslims Hindus and Pagans. Any one who claims to have heard God needs to be sure that it was indeed God who spoke.

In the Christian Bible it states that one of the prerequisites that must be met before Jesus will return to judge mankind is that all people must hear about the good news of Christ's sacrifice. No one will be judged without having heard the news and without having made their choice. Unfortunately, yes it does mean that many will not see God. The Bible makes a comment that broad is the way that leads to destruction and narrow is the way that leads to salvation. This is a metaphor that few people (in comparison) will chose the narrow way.

that is magnificent and being concerned and all although that is to overdue. He already paid on your sins mutually with his blood, certain he persevered an afternoon of brutal torture, for you, yet now he's contained in the optimal position contained in the international! He sits on the right hand of the King of the Universe! also Jesus become God, so that you do not opt for to call him undesirable, jesus become area of the trinity. Father, son, and holy spirit. Jesus become god, yet he did not imagine of himself as equivalent with god. quite he became a lowly human and humbled himself even extra. So truly, his blood has already coated your previous sins and the your sins contained in the destiny. Why no longer take excitement in it and love him for it?

I really not judge anyone, I have found from reading the Bible there are many things people not understand of God and choose to make up their own Beliefs. If, you have a Bible read Genesis 16:7-16. I believe this speaks of the Muslims, but, as I already stated we tend to make up our own ideas of what we not understand. But, I do know I am in no position to question God, I assume He know what He doing and I do feel, it will, in time, show His love for all people.
Another interesting insight is in Romans 11:25-27.
So, from things I read, I not judge and really do not say who goes to hell, it not my position.

Romans 1 says that everybody knows from nature that there's a god and that he's powerful. I personally believe that, for anybody who wants the true god will find him; God will make a way.
I believe that because His nature is good, and some anecdotes bear this out.
A missionary family was flying out of the jungle when their plane crashed. The only survivor was their teenage son. He was rescued by a local tribe, but they had no contact with the outside, so he stayed with them. After about 5 years, he had learned enough of their language to communicate the Gospel to them. One of the men said, "We have always known there is a good god and a bad god. About 5 years ago, I decided I wanted to follow the good god." So God sent him someone!
There are tales of God appearing to people in dreams, even.
A recent study in Japan showed that preschool children believe in a god. This really flabbergasted the researchers because "god" is not a significant part of Japanese culture. I read this in the newspaper a year or so ago.
Of course, you are far more likely to want Him if you are taught about Him; it is very important to spread the news!

Surely He will. You don't know enough about either religion to make statements like that, but it's good to ask questions. The muslim religion is a false religion which uses bondage to keep people under control. The Christian faith is built on a free choice. Our Father in Heaven is a kind and loving Father who sent His only Son to die for OUR sins. It is so simple to be a Christian, and in fact the muslims have been given the gospel on numerous occasions and many are converting. The other thing to keep in mind is how insignifigant we are. Don't spend your time worrying about what God will do, or why some people will go to hell. We don't really know what He will do, his compassion is GREAT. To go to Heaven as a muslim you have to jump through many spiritual hoops, pray so many times a day, essentially you have to earn your way to heaven. As a Chrisitian you dont have to do anything except believe that Christ died for your sins. Because we can';t earn our way to heaven, we are nothing to God and our works are nothing to Him. Look to the example of the thief on the cross. He was a sinner but Christ said "surely you will be in Heaven with me." He didnt do anything but believe at the very last moment of his life. The Bible, especially the new testament is a great place to start to learn about your God, the God of your Fathers. Some people are not as fortunate as you, in that they can't even question their existence. Here you are, questioning the almighty's intentions, even though you are nothing. We are all nothing, and deserve nothing, but God decided to give us a place in Heaven because of His love. Don't overthink a very easy thing. It is so easy but we make it so hard, because the devil tries to deceive us with thoughts like the one in your question. God bless you, I hope you believe on Christ and find a place into heaven. Read the Bible, go to a Christian church, not mormon or jehovah witness (both false religions, much like muslims in that you have to earn your way to heaven). You dont have to go to church but it helps to be in the environment of fellow believers and to take some sunday school classes so you can learn the gospel more easily. Not necessary though, and remember the devil is actively working to make the image of the christian as undesirable. Thanks.

God wont let them just live blindly. You dont know what oppertunities God gives every person in their lives...unless you speak/witness every person's life.
Sometimes God gives people oppertunities and they fail to recognise it or they just donet wanna follow God.
There is a story (true) about an african tribe in the 17/18 hundreds who were found by missionaries of that time in the deep forests of Africa. They have nver had any contact with western culture, but when the westerners started to communicate with them and tell them about God. They told them that a becing appered to them a while back and told them all the things the missionaries were telling them and more. They already worshipped Yahweh, God sent them an Angel or what they believed to be one.
People do not need to be told about God by other people (although it helps) . He is our creator, there is a bit of Him in each of us and if we look we will find. No need to worry. The question is just, if we look, and fine, will we accept.
