Muslims:Is your Allah the same as The Christians Jesus ?Why then a prophet? when we can go directly to him...?

Question

ourselves ?The veil of the temple was rent in 2, leaving it open for all men to have access to the throne.

I can understand that Allah may be another name for God,just as Jehovah,Emamuel & other names w/different meanings.But having to go to a priests to get to God was done away with.We can go directly to God ourselves,through Jesus,the son of God for salvation.
The book of Acts says:"for there is no other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved.", Why all the confussion ? Jesus is Jesus & available to all. This is Fact there is no other salvation.

I'm getting a lot of contradictory answers here. Seems no one really agrees on this.

Jesus bled &died for our sins. He is the son of God, God made flesh, as in John ch 1 "and the word was made flesh & manifested itself to us, but we knew him not".

& so poeple still-----"knew him not'', sad world when people believe in dont know what...........j

Answer 1

I never went to a Muhammed, but i do know, i have peace in my heart thru jesus Christ, the son of God,who they 3 are the same,the FAther // son & Holy spirit.

Dont worry about what you dont know, & concentrate on what u do know. If you know that you can go to Jesus christ, God, & the spirit, in prayer, &ask him to save you , why worry about what you dont know.

just stay in your Bible,enjoy salvation, & if u dont stand for something, you;ll fall for anything.

love, & God Bless

Answer 2

See that's the whole point of Islam. We don't go through priests like some other faiths. Nor do we go through Jesus. We pray directly to Allah (God). You cannot logically say you are directly worshipping Him. You said you do it "through" Jesus. So you and everyone who believes in requiring people go through anyone other than God are not monotheists. God does not need a medium, there are prophets that guide to his way, like Jesus, and then Mohammad the last messenger. But as far as prayer and salvation and all that, neither Mohammad nor Jesus have any power over us, only God does.

The only way to salvation is to worship Allah (God) alone. His last prophet was Mohammad. See what some non-Muslims think of him to get an objective point of view and then judge him for yourself.

Answer 3

I believe the best authority in answering your question are The Bible and The Holy Quran itself. And the best presentation of the answer can be find here :-

I hope you can find it in your heart to view it objectively, disspassionately, without prejudice. The truth can hurt sometimes but know that it is a healing in its way.

Answer 4

Allah is the same as the christian god, Not Jesus.

Answer 5

Am I the only one who sees the irony in this question?

I mean, you are talking about going to God THROUGH Jesus.

Honey, I'm not a Muslim, but I was one. Muslims pray directly TO God. Not THROUGH anyone.

You've got it all mixed up.

Answer 7

"In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Compassionate".

Allah can do all things directly, he could made us the species of Heaven directly he did not need to send us on Earth and then good or bad deeds than to hell or heaven, but then what would be the good and bad, then there would be no concept of hell or heaven.

Allah send his messengers to this world to guide people, now it is up to us to be guided or not.

ISLAM IS THE CONCLUSION OF THE TEACHINGS OF "ABRAHAM (peace be upon him)”, “JESUS (peace be upon him)”, “MOSES(peace be upon him)” AND EVERY OTHER REVEALED RELIGION & PROPHETS.

Towards which religion COMMON SENSE leads us?

COMMON SENSE # 1: Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said like other true prophets of Allah Abraham, Moses & Jesus (pbut) etc to believe in only ONE true God & not in IDOLS or in many gODS.

COMMON SENSE # 2: Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said believe in Jesus (pbuh) and his revealed book (original one which is lost) and Mosses (pbuh) and his revealed book (original one which is lost) and all revealed books and prophets otherwise u can not be a Muslim. If he is not the true prophet (MAAZ ALLAH) then why he said that believe in them otherwise u will be sent to HELL. Read “EMAN-E-MUFASSIL“ & ” EMAN-E-MUJAMEL “ 2 testify.

COMMON SENSE # 3: Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) never said that he is (MAAZ ALLAH)” God “but strictly said that there is only one ALLAH (God) and no one is like him. If he is not the true prophet (MAAZ ALLAH) then why he said that? He called himself as ALLAH’s last prophet & not bragged about himself (MAAZ ALLAH) as God, as so many fake ppl did in history. Allah (S.W.T.) meaning: (the Exalted, Most Glorious) tells mankind that Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h.) is no more than a Messenger (Quran: 3/144)

COMMON SENSE # 4: Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said like other true prophets before him like Abraham, Moses & Jesus (pbut) about the JUDGEMENT DAY.

COMMON SENSE #5: If u see Prophet Jesus (peace be upon him) in pictures made by Non-Muslims, he has same kind of beard like Muhammad (pbuh) had & Muslims have, And also Mother Marry dress in pictures made by Non-Muslims is exactly 100% same as ISLAM says.

COMMON SENSE # 6:Non-Muslims say that Muhammad (peace be upon him) plagiarize the Holy Quran from the Holy Bible but this is NOT possible because Muhammad (pbuh) was not educated, then how he could do such a thing?

COMMON SENSE # 7: Another reason that Muhammad (peace be upon him) can’t plagiarize the Holy Quran from the Holy Bible is that “The Holy Bible at the time of Muhammad (pbuh) was not translated in ARABIC language then how he could plagiarize from it”?

COMMON SENSE # 8:Non-Muslims claim that Muhammad (peace be upon him) himself wrote the Holy Quran, if so then why his name comes in the Holy Quran only 5 times & Prophet Adam (pbuh) name 25 times , Prophet Abraham (Pbuh) name 63 times, Prophet Jesus (pbuh) name 25 times, Prophet Moses (pbuh) name comes 136 times, , Prophet Noah (pbuh) name comes 43 times, Prophet Hud (pbuh) names comes 7 times, Prophet Salih (Pbuh) names comes 8 times, Prophet Yousuf (pbuh) name comes 26 times, Story of Prophet Younus (pbuh) comes in 6 Surrahs in the Holy Quran & names of some other prophets comes more than the name of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), If (Maaz Allah) Muhammad (pbuh) wrote the Holy Quran then why not he used his name more than any other prophet?

COMMON SENSE # 9:If Muhammad (peace be upon him) MAAZ ALLAH not a prophet then why he used to pray 5 times a day and conveyed the message of ALLAH that this an order from ALLAH, & in ISLAM u can’t pray without performing ablution. Why Muhammad (pbuh) used to pray? What for? For who?

COMMON SENSE # 10:If Muhammad (peace be upon him) MAAZ ALLAH not a prophet then why he himself performed “HAJJ” which is the toughest of the pillars of ISLAM, and said that it is FARZ (Imperative) for all Muslims who have the money to afford it. For who? What for?

COMMON SENSE # 11: Why Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) strictly ordered not to do "SAJDA" before any body but ALLAH. IF he is not MAAZ ALLAH not a prophet then why he said so? Why not he said do "SAJDA" to me as well?

COMMON SENSE# 12:If Muhammad (peace be upon him) MAAZ ALLAH not a prophet then why he used to "FAST" for the whole month of "RAMADAN" for 29 to 30 days without a break & why he most of the time used to PRAY in TARAWEEH (long prayer) and other prayers after the FAST? for who? For what?

COMMON SENSE# 13:If Muhammad (peace be upon him) MAAZ ALLAH not a prophet then why he used to give ZAKAAT (Obligatory Charity, Money to poor) and said that this is God’s order and every one who can afford should give ZAKAAT. FITRAA is also a God’s order and it is also giving money to poor ppl. Why he used to do that himself and said that this is IMPERATIVE for all Muslims who ever can afford ZAKAAT & FITRAA. For what and for who?

COMMON SENSE# 14:If Muhammad (peace be upon him) MAAZ ALLAH not a prophet then why he used to give KHAIRAT,SADQA,AQIQA,HADYA,KAFFARA etc to poor ppl which is again giving to needy ppl to gain reward from ALLAH.

COMMON SENSE#15: Even Abraham (Pbuh), Moses (Pbuh) used to dress like Muslims, cover head, beard and thoroughly covered body.

COMMON SENSE#16: There is a Quranic verse named after mother of Jesus (Pbuh), the name of the verse is Surrah-e-Mayam.If prophet Muhammad (Pbuh) is MAAZ ALLAH not a prophet then why not he named the Quranic verse name after his mother? Allah says that he choose Mary above “the women of all nations”. Why not Muhammad (Pbuh)‘s mother if he MAAZ ALLAH wrote the Holy Quran himself. (3:42). AL-E-IMRAN (THE FAMILY OF 'IMRAN, THE HOUSE OF 'IMRAN) "Behold! the angel said: 'God has chosen you and purified you and has chosen you above the women of all nations. O Mary! God gives you the good news of a word from Him, whose name shall be Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, honored in this world and the hereafter, and one of those brought near to God".

COMMON SENSE#17: If Muhammad (Pbuh) is not a TRUE prophet then why he never used alcohol and made it strictly prohibited, which is always use by humans for fake enjoyments. for whom? What for? Why?

COMMON SENSE#18: When Muhammad (Pbuh) went to MAKKAH to perform Hajj from MEDINA with all of his followers but with no arms when the ppl of MAKKAH were to HOSTILE against Muslims, for whom? What for? Why?

COMMON SENSE#19:The Prophet's wife `A'ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said, I asked, "Messenger of Allah, why do you exert yourself so much while all your sins have been forgiven?" To this he replied, "`A'ishah, should I not be a grateful servant of Allah?" (Muslim). If he maaz Allah not speaking the truth then for who he used to pray that long? what for?

COMMON SENSE#20: Muhammad (pbuh) was a posthumous & his mother died, when he was about six, then could he give unimaginable respect to parents?
(NOT EVEN UFF, TO PARENTS)
And your Lord has decreed that you not worship except Him, and to parents, good treatment. Whether one or both of them reach old age [while] with you, say not to them [so much as], "uff," (Interjection of anger, dislike, frustration) and do not repel them but speak to them a noble word. – Holy Quran 17:23
A man once consulted the Prophet Muhammad about taking part in a military campaign. The Prophet asked the man if his mother was still living. When told that she was alive, the Prophet said: "(Then) stay with her, for Paradise is at her feet." (Al-Tirmidhi) & I can quote for days about parent rights in Islam, how did he know them? Since he hardly had the love of parents.

COMMON SENSE#21: If Muhammad (pbuh) is not a true prophet then why he left the great offers offered like enemies of him can make him their king, give him all the wealth that he wants and also give him the most beautiful lady in his wedlock, but he should not propagate Islam. The Prophet replied: to his uncle "I swear by the name of Allah, O Uncle, that if they place the sun in my right hand and the moon in my left hand in return for giving up this matter (calling people to Islam), I will never desist until either Allah makes it triumph or I perish defending it." & Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), at the time of his death when he was the undisputed king of kings, he was in debt, and his shield was in the hands of a Jewish citizen of Madinah as a co-lateral for his debt. (According to Riyad-As-Saleheen, Hadith No. 504), he could have luxurious life but he left it, for who what for?
I COULD HAVE WRITE TONS OF TONS MORE COMMON SENSES BUT IF I DO THIS, THEN WHAT WILL BE LEFT FOR U TO THINK ABOUT?
