Is Islam was founded around 600 ADE was it a break from the Jewish faith? Christian faith? Pagan faith?

Question

Jewish was sort of formed around paganism and Christianity was formed around jewish and paganism. So I wondering of Islam was.

Answer 1

Mohammed took the Abrahamic tradition of one god and applied it to the pagan moon god that his tribe worshiped, announcing that the other gods in the Arabian pantheon didn't exist and that Al-Ilah (the actual name of the moon god) was the only one. In early Islam, Allah was represented as a crescent moon (still used) with three stars (his three daughters) but future Imams declared that Allah had no children and was supreme alone so that was dropped.

That will offend Muslims but I learned it from a secular professor of Middle Eastern History with no particular axe to grind against any religion.

Answer 2

my understanding is that abram was originally a pagan when he started talking to god. his name was changed to abraham (father of many nations) after his revelation started to unfold more. the bible says his father was a moon worshiper as well as others of that day. next moses came and spoke with god also and then the torah (first five books of the bible) which were written by moses. many other prophets or seers came that wrote the other books of the bible. then came yeshuah (mistranslated jesus the said messiah).

muhammad (570-632) founded islam. muhammad was said of those that follow islam to be the last prophet of god. i don't know enough about the qur'an to expound it's belief system. talking to other muslims i've found that allah (they say is the same god of the torah) is the one god. the qur'an was written by those that were around muhammad as he recited it. i don't have an exact date of when the qur'an was ratified but it was some time after muhammads death in the 7th century...

all these are catagorized in the abrahamic faiths. 1) judism 2) christianty 3) muslim (they came in that order). paganism can historically be proven as the first written type of religion but that doesn't say much. paganism is polythiest (many gods) and the other monothiestic (one god). athiest (no god)...

Answer 3

there are various adjustments. Hebrew is a prosperous language and lends its self to distinctive opportunities whilst being translated. extra to that concern is the cultural distinction between Judaism and Christianity and you're advantageous to have any verbal replace on the undertaking get emotional very immediately. in the Latin translation efforts have been made to apply as lots of the Aramaic Targum translation as obtainable. Jesus spoke Aramaic and it grew to become into maximum consumer-friendly language in the Israel at that factor. when you consider that Jesus’ references to the Jewish scriptures have been by and massive from the Targum translation it made experience to apply them as a reference in translating from the Septuagint (Greek). the 1st translations have been made utilising the Targums the Septuagint and the unique Hebrew. The Targum translation is the place I understand the greater youthful females/virgin interpretation got here from. All Jewish translations come quickly from the Hebrew text cloth. the concern of the version between Christian and Jewish variations isn't as lots of a controversy with Christians when you consider that we've maximum of translations of the OT obtainable. Varity is the norm for us, it is not an identical for Jews. the adjustments interior Christian translations are no longer any greater effective that the adjustments between any of the them and the Tanakh. because of this your appropriate source on the adjustments may well be Jewish sources. the concern is that Jewish sources are no longer drawn to why there are adjustments or how they got here approximately. All efforts are directed in the direction of proving that Christianity is a pretend faith.

Answer 4

You might think that, Jill, because Islam seems to be a composite religion, but don´t believe it.

The rise of Islam is described in Bible prophecy, and it occurred about the time that Clovis became Catholic and killed opposing Christian faiths in France. Then a couple decade later, Justinian became Catholic. He ordered his troops to eliminate opposing religions in North Africa.

Jesus never commanded us to use force to convert unbelievers; in fact, He said to turn the other cheek when offended.

However, Belisarius launched 35,000 troops against Arian Christians. Such atrocities are why God sent Mohammedanism, with mandates in the Koran to forcibly convert infidels. In fact, the Bible gives two timed periods, for them to torment, then to kill. It symbolizes the size of Islamic armies, too.

Check this out for yourself, because Islam will eventually cause Armageddon, and the Bible names the very countries--Islamic majorities. See http://abiblecode.tripod.com

Answer 9

MISCONCEPTION : Muhammad was the founder of Islam and Muslims worship him.

Muhammad (pbuh) was born in Mecca in the year 570. Since his father died before his birth, and his mother shortly afterwards, he was raised by his uncle from the respected tribe of Quraysh. As he grew up, he became known for his truthfulness, generosity and sincerity, so that he was sought after for his ability to arbitrate in disputes. The historians describe him as calm and meditative. Muhammad (pbuh) was of a deeply religious nature, and had long detested the decadence of his society.

It became his habit to meditate from time to time in the Cave of Hira near Mecca. At the age of 40, while engaged in a meditative retreat, Muhammad (pbuh) received his first revelation from God through the Angel Gabriel. This revelation, which continued for 23 years is known as the Quran. As soon as he began to recite the words he heard from Gabriel, and to preach the truth which God had revealed to him, he and his small group of followers suffered bitter persecution, which grew so fierce that in the year 622 God gave them the command to emigrate.

This event, the Hijrah or 'migration', in which they left Mecca for the city of Medina, marks the beginning of the Muslim calendar. After several years, the Prophet and his followers were able to return to Mecca, where they forgave their enemies and established Islam definitively. Before the death of Prophet (saw) at the age of 63, the greater part of Arabia was Muslim, and within a century of his death Islam had spread to Spain in the West and as far East as China. He died with less than 5 possessions to his name.

While Muhammad (pbuh) was chosen to deliver the message, he is not considered the "founder" of Islam, since Muslims consider Islam to be the same Divine guidance sent to all peoples before. Muslims believe all the prophets from Adam, Noah, Moses, Jesus etc. were all sent with divine guidance for their peoples. Every prophet was sent to his own people, but Muhammad (pbuh) was sent to all of mankind. Muhammad is the last and final messenger sent to deliver the message of Islam. Muslims revere and honor him (pbuh) for all he went through and his dedication, but they do not worship him.
"O Prophet, verily We have sent you as a witness and a bearer of glad tidings and a warner and as one who invites unto God by His leave and as an illuminating lamp." (Qur'an 33:45-46)

MISCONCEPTION : Muslims don't believe in Jesus or any other prophets.

Muslims respect and revere Jesus, upon him be peace, and await his Second Coming. They consider him one of the greatest of God's messengers to mankind. A Muslim never refers to him simply as 'Jesus', but always adds the phrase 'upon him be peace' (abbreviated as (u) here). The Qur'an confirms his virgin birth (a chapter of the Quran is entitled 'Mary'), and Mary is considered the purest woman in all creation. The Quran describes the Annunciation as follows:

"Behold !" the Angel said, "God has chosen you, and purified you, and chosen you above the women of all nations. O Mary, God gives you good news of a word from Him whose name shall be the Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, honored in this world and the Hereafter, and one of those brought near to God. He shall speak to the people from his cradle and in maturity, and shall be of the righteous." She said: "O my Lord! How shall I have a son when no man has touched me?" He said: "Even so; God creates what He wills. When He decrees a thing, He says to it, "Be!" and it is." (Qur'an 3:42-47)

Jesus (u) was born miraculously through the same power, which had brought Adam (u) into being without a father: "Truly, the likeness of Jesus with God is as the likeness of Adam. He created him of dust, and then said to him, 'Be!' and he was." (Qur'an 3:59)
During his prophetic mission Jesus (u) performed many miracles. The Qur'an tells us that he said: "I have come to you with a sign from your Lord: I make for you out of clay, as it were, the figure of a bird, and breath into it and it becomes a bird by God's leave. And I heal the blind, and the lepers, and I raise the dead by God's leave." (Qur'an 3:49)
Neither Muhammad (pbuh) not Jesus (u) came to change the basic doctrine of the brief in One God brought by earlier prophets, but to confirm and renew it.

In the Qur'an Jesus (u) is reported as saying that he came: "And I have come confirming that which was before me of the Taurat (Torah), and to make lawful to you part of what was forbidden to you; and I have come to you with a proof from your Lord, so fear Allah and obey me." (Qur'an 3:50)
The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said: "Whoever believes there is no god but God, alone without partner, that Muhammad (pbuh) is His messenger, that Jesus is the servant and messenger of God, His word breathed into Mary and a spirit emanating from Him, and that Paradise and Hell are true, shall be received by God into Heaven." (Hadith related by Bukhari)
