How many times have Muslims claimed “Jesus is a Muslim”, the argument is that Christ supposedly lived His life as a Muslim. Let’s be clear from the beginning, Christians disagree, and we proclaim that Jesus Christ is NOT Isa who’s found in the Qur’an.
I find it telling that Muslims try their hardest to somehow link the Biblical Jesus Christ with the Qur’an. Like a parasite, Islam feeds off of its host (Christianity), and Islam tries to validate itself in this way. Shabir Ally a Canadian Muslim preacher and Imam said:
The early Jesus sounds a lot like a Muslim prophet, a human being, and a messenger of God, like the prophets of the Old Testament. Of course, that does not mean that in all respects, we can reconstruct the history and know that Jesus was like a Muslim, but this is close enough. It is definitely closer than some of the theologies that are out there that present Jesus as God himself or a second person of the Holy Trinity. In the end, I think I can confidently assert that Jesus was a Muslim.
All Muslims must agree that Muhammad is the perfect example of what a Muslim aspires to be. How is it Muhammad was so obsessed with doing things in threes, he would also make the same statement 3 times.
How to Perform Wudu Three Times
Wudu is the Islamic act of making oneself purified before prayer. There are specific steps a person must perform but we’re not concerned with the steps, what we want to know is why Muhammad washed each limb three times (ثَلاَثًا ثَلاَثًا)?
In the following Sahih Hadith from al-Tirmidhi we have the Chapter: What Has Been Related About Wudu Three times (For Each Limb).
Let’s also point out the deceptive translations also, how is it possible that we have 1 sentence in English and look at the Arabic text. There’s a whole paragraph where’s all of that text?! It’s a mystery all of that text has vanished into thin air! 😂
The question is why does Muhammad feel the need to wash each limb 3 times, why not 4 times, why not 2 times, why not 10 times? It’s funny that he feels the need to do it 3 times. And we’ll provide the proof that Muslims do the same every time they prepare themselves to pray. The highlighted Arabic portion of the text says (سلم تَوَضَّأَ ثَلاَثًا ثَلاَثًا)“He performed ablution three by three.”
Muhammad gave the story of Adam and Moses who argued with one another, arguing that Moses accused Adam for mankind being kicked out of Jannah (Paradise).
According to Bukhari Muhammad says three times“So Adam confuted Moses, Adam confuted Moses” Muhammad loves the Trinity to the point that he needs to repeat a statement three times. Again why not two times or twenty times, why must he say it three times? More proof that Muhammad loves the Trinity and, therefore, he needs to make a statement three times.
Here’s another Hadith in which Muhammad repeated himself three times (ثَلاَثَ مَرَّاتٍ) once again Muhammad shows his love for the Trinity. Once again notice the discrepancy in the length of text between both English and Arabic, why are they afraid of translating.
Gulping Drinks Three Times
Muhammad is overtaken by the Trinity breathing three times while taking three gulps when he drinks.[1] It’s funny that Islam teaches against the Trinity “say not Three” [4:171] [5:73].
How hypocritical that Muhammad felt the need to tell Muslims how he does everything in threes, Muhammad is a closet case, Christian.
Call To Prayer Three Times
Adhan is the Islamic call to public prayer prescribed at certain times of the day.[2] Notice the obsession even between the call to prayer Muhammad felt the need to say things three times.
Muhammad said if a Muslim asks Allah for paradise three times, he/she will be permitted into paradise. They can also seek refuge from being condemned to Hellfire by asking Allah to save them.
If Muslims are against the Trinity how is it that their prophet was constantly doing things in threes? Islam contradicts itself everywhere and shows that it’s a man-made religion.
Conclusion
Anyone who is honestly looking for truth by opening up Islamic sources such as Sunnah.com, just enter the words “three times” in the search. You’ll see how many things Muhammad did in threes, why not five times or two times? this shows the hypocrisy of Islam, their prophet secretly loves the Trinity but unfortunately, he had no idea what the Trinity is. You can read about that in the previous article Allah Is Wrong About The Trinity [4:171, 5:17].
This false god Allah has no idea what he’s talking about, he doesn’t know what the Trinity is and his “prophet” Muhammad is obsessed with the Trinity. For a religion that is so against the Trinity, why do they do all these rituals in three’s (Trinity)? Islam is a silly religion in which its followers are completely fooled by a crazy man called Muhammad.

The Qur’an is very confused when it comes to the Trinity, Allah doesn’t understand what the Trinity is and we are going to prove it today. First let’s define what the Bible teaches and what Christians believe in regards to the Trinity.[1]
We believe: There’s one God (Deuteronomy 6:4), who exists as three co-equal, co-eternal and consubstantial divine persons – Father, Son and Holy Spirit God (Matthew 28:19) is sovereign and self-existent (Exodus 3:14), and is perfectly omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient, immutable (Genesis 17:1), holy, righteous and loving (Judges 13:18).
With that definition known let’s turn to the Qur’an and see if Allah understands the Trinity. According to Sūrah al-Nisāa Allah is trying to refute the idea of the Trinity “Say not Three (Trinity)”.
Allah is saying there’s 3 in the Trinity Say not: “Three (trinity)!” is that correct? Let’s make sure by going to the Islamic scholars this is fro mthe tafsir of Ibn Kathir:
(Say not: “Three!”) do not elevate `Isa and his mother to be gods with Allah. Allah is far holier than what they attribute to Him. In Surat Al-Ma’idah (chapter 5), Allah said,
Ibn Kathir says Christians are elevating Isa (Jesus) and his mother (Mary) to be gods along with Allah. Mistake number 1, Christians do not believe Mary is part of the Trinity. That’s just false, meaning Allah left out the Holy Spirit and inserted Mary by mistake. Even though they are wrong about Mary, at least in this verse they are saying Christians believe in 3 Persons as 1 God.
Here comes the big contradiction within the Qur’an. According to Sūrah al-Māidah 5:17 there’s a person missing in the Trinity. Reading the verse carefully the Qur’an says that Christians says Allah is Christ. In other words the Qur’an is saying Christians believe Jesus is the Father. That means the Qur’an left out a person and is saying there are only two people in the Trinity Jesus and Mary.
Are you getting it? This verse says the Messiah is Allah that makes 1 person, and Muslims believe Allah and Jesus are 2 different individuals. So if Jesus is Allah that’s 1 Person and the second Person is Mary so who’s the third person of the Trinity?
This contradiction proves the Qur’an has mistakes, no Christian believes Mary is part of the Trinity, and if Jesus is Allah then that only leaves 2 people. The 3rd person is missing from the Trinity. How can Allah be god and yet doesn’t know these fundamental beliefs. All Christians believe the Trinity is 3 distinct Persons who are co-equal in essence as the 1 God.
Muslims need to wake up and see that they have been lied to, their god has no undertsanding of the Trinity and the Qur’an is filled with mistakes. The Saviour of the world Jesus Christ is waiting for you to confess with your mouth that He is Lord.[2]

Heretics will do mental gymnastics to the point that it’s hysterical, one such Heretic under the name of scottgrey2877 said Isaiah 53 is not about Jesus Christ but instead Isaiah wrote about Jeremiah. 😂😂😂
You can’t make this stuff up, where do Heretics get this from definitely not from the Bible!
Isaiah said that the Servant would bear our sins and suffer in our place. 700 years later, Jesus “himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed” (1 Peter 2:24).
Jews for Jesus agrees that Isaiah 53 is about Jesus Christ and that He fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah of being the Suffering Servant. Another scholar of the Hebrew Scriptures Dr. Michael Brown who is Jewish also says in his book Answering Jewish Objections to Jesus says Isaiah 53 is about Christ.
Infact, Christian readers will immediately be struck by two parallels between this midrashic description of the sufferings of Messiah ben Ephraim and the very real sufferings of Jesus the Messiah: (1) Both are said to suffer for the sins of their people, Messiah ben Ephraim enduring pain and affliction while waiting to be revealed to Israel, Messiah Yeshua enduring mockery, savage flogging, and crucifixion at the very moment that most of Israel was rejecting him. (2) The sufferings of both are explained with reference to Isaiah53, the biblical text most frequently cited by followers of Jesus inorder to prove that the Hebrew Scriptures did, infact, point directly to him.

Heretics will stoop to very low levels to misguide people into believing their false prophet Muhammad, but when they come across Christians who know how to engage with them they start to flounder, as we get them busted.
(1) 11:18-23 Here is the opposition which apparently took the prophet by surprise. He describes himself as being “like a gentle lamb led to the slaughter” (verse 19). you will find the same words used in a famous passage in Isa. 53:7 to describe the suffering servant of the Lord. This is only one among many indications that the experience of Jeremiah may have contributed to the portrait of the servant which we find in Isaiah chapters 40ff. Yet the same words can often mean different things. In Isa. 53:7 the words are used to describe how the servant was led like a lamb to the slaughter and all the while remained silent, accepting his fate without protest. Jeremiah, as we shall see, was anything but silent in the face of opposition. Bitter words of protest was often on his lips. The picture of the “gentle lamb” is used here to indicate that what happened took Jeremiah by surprise. Before he knew what was happening, they were out to get him: “I did not know it was against me they devised schemes,” (verse 19).
This guy is so confused, Isaiah 53 is a Messianic Prophecy about Jesus Christ, how do we know this? Well look at all the details contained within the passage, reading the entire chapter you’ll find lots of 3rd person personal pronouns. Notice the words “he”, “him”, “his” in this verse.
The verse speaks of the one who was wounded for transgressions, was Jeremiah wounded for transgressions no he was not, the one spoken of here was bruised for iniquities, once again Jeremiah was not bruised for iniquities. The one spoken of here endured chastisement for our peace, Jeremiah didn’t and lastly the one spoken here was given stripes and we are healed by them. Jeremiah never suffered any stripes (flogging) and we certainly not healed by Jeremiah.
Scottgrey2877 then evaded and said they pierced (not certain if he’s referring to Jeremiah or Jesus) His hands and feet but God preserved his flesh, what does this have to do with our question?The question is who was the one pierced as there is no evidence in the Bible for Jeremiah having his hands and feet pierced or being wounded for our transgressions.
Later in the book of Zechariah chapter 12 God Himself is speaking and God says “and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced,” and we know that God the Father was not pierced neither was the Holy Spirit pierced. Only the son of God was pierced no one else besides Him.
No one else besides God can pour the spirit of grace and supplications, will Scottgrey2877 claim that this is Jeremiah also? 😄 And God said they will look upon Him, this took place in the Gospels in multiple places but for the sake of brevity we’ll provide a references from the Gospel of John.
In John 19:34, 37 a soldier took a spear pierced the side of Christ, and blood and water came out. Then John links this with Zachariah 12:10, then in John 20:25 Thomas exclaimed that he wouldn’t believe that Christ rose form the dead unless he saw the pierced hands of the Lord Jesus.
And verse 20:27 Christ enters the room where the disciples are staying and He shows Thomas His pierced hands, and tells Thomas to not be faithless but believe.
Our Heretic friend Scottgrey2877 is deceiving himself saying Isaiah 53 is about Jeremiah, no where in the Bible does it teach or confirm such nonsense.
Conclusion
This person lives in a fantasy world and needs for his eyes to be opened by the grace of God. I pray that he’s not too far gone because the things he says are very far out there!! But our God is the living God and He saves, nothing is out of His hand. May scottgrey2877 come to Jesus Christ for etenral life.

Muslims worship a man who called himself Muhammad which means “the praised one,” they place Muhammad on a pedestal saying he was the best of all mankind. If this is true then looking into the poster boy of Islam would prove this to be fact, if it’s indeed true. Upon examining his life we see another picture portrayed, a life riddled with adultery, murder, deceit, lies and every other sin imaginable to the imagination.
A Muslim engaging with a Christian was frustrated because a Christian woman on a video who debated Zakir Naik and was exposing him was getting under his skin. He began to mock the woman and poster of the content, here’s his comment.
Muslims don’t like when they are exposed, therefore, they run to the Bible to get away from the madness of the Qur’an, Allah and Muhammad. Once they are triggered a majority will engage in name-calling believing that somehow this proves their point. Here’s the main comment I would like to focus on.
According to this Muslim’s comment, he clearly believes mental instability is bad, and started to verbally abuse others. Salrathor1 was asked the question if Muhammad was mentally unstable, his reply was…
He was then asked if a person tries to commit suicide is that a sign of mental instability?
Notice the hypocrisy of Muslims. First, he mentioned being in a mentally unstable position is bad, using it as an insult against someone else. Then when he was asked about the same situation in reference to his prophet, he changed his position and started defending it.
Let’s see if Muhammad was mentally unstable according to the Muslim sources? First, let’s define mental instability means.
A mental illness is a condition that affects a person’s thinking, feeling, behavior or mood. These conditions deeply impact day-to-day living and may also affect the ability to relate to others.
According to NAMI, the development of mental instability is the result of multiple factors ranging from genetics to one’s living conditions, another component can also be trauma. One singular event is not part of the cause, but a series of traumatic events do play a role in developing mental illness.
Muhammad the prophet of Islam fits the criteria of someone who suffered from mental illness. There’s a story in the Islamic sources which states that Muhammad became very depressed when “inspiration” from Allah stopped. the prophet of Islam would go to a mountain top seeking to commit suicide by throwing himself from the mountain.
This is an authentic Sahih Hadith from al-Bukhari proving Muhammad was mentally unstable. The Muslim salrathor1 was mocking and insinuating mental illness was not good, but the prophet of Islam was mentally disturbed, we will provide the link to Sunnah.com where you can find the Hadith.
The Hadith says that Waraqa bin Naufal died, he was supposedly a Christian whom Muhammad would learn from, notice, what does divine inspiration has to do with Waraqa’s death, was Waraqa a prophet delivering Qur’an to Muhammad? This Hadith says Muhammad tried multiple times to kill himself and Gabriel (Jibril) would have to keep telling Muhammad that he’s a messenger of Allah.[1]This carries severe implications as Muhammad doubted he was Allah’s prophet!
Suicide itself is not a mental disorder, but one of the most important causes of suicide is mental illness – most often Depression, Bipolar Disorder (Manic Depression), Schizophrenia, and Substance Use Disorders.
This is a telling sign that Muhammad was a mentally ill person. When our Muslim friend suggested that W-Masih should seek professional counselling as in sitting down with a psychiatrist, would he make the same recommendation to his prophet?
Conclusion
If Muslims agree that being mentally unstable is not good then how is it they follow a mentally unstable man called Muhammad. Who attempted multiple times to take his own life by committing suicide? These are not the marks of a prophet of God, this is someone who needed psychiatric care.
Christians never have to worry when it comes to Jesus Christ, He was always in His right mind and never tried killing Himself. Wicked men took the Lord of Glory and crucified Him, and Christ allowed them to do it because He came to procure salvation for those who would appreciate His wonderful sacrifice. The Good Shepherd lays down His life for His sheep.
There was a divine purpose for the Lord Jesus laying down His life, being the most sacrificial action ever done in the history of mankind, to save others from eternal judgement. Muhammad had selfish ambitions, he wanted to be a prophet and thought to kill himself because he wasn’t getting revelations. Jesus Christ far superseded Muhammad in every aspect of His life. Wake up Muslims the real Jesus Christ who is God loves you and calls you to Himself for salvation.

The Islamic thought is that Islam will dominate the world, so it’s no surprise that Muslims are very zealous in spreading the teaching of Islam. We know of these individuals who want to give dawah in different ways, some engage in giving dawah through debates, blogs, news, fake reaction videos, street booths etc.
There’s a group called Dawahpedia Projects in Canada that will target nominal Christians[1] on the street corner and seek to convert them to Islam. It’s unfortunate because this nominal Christianity is what’s put forth in the public sphere, and sadly the world would think that’s Christianity. Wolves in sheep’s clothing have taken root preaching a false Gospel which has laid hold on helpless souls and we pray that the LORD of Host opens their eyes to the truth.
When they (Muslims) are faced with a born-again believer in the Lord Jesus who’s familiar with Islam’s deceptive tactics, these Muslims become flustered and do not know how to respond because they cannot control the conversation. Case in point wit the following comment from Dawahpedia Projects.
According to this Abdoool Dawahpedia, claims that Jesus is not the Word “OF” Allah, but the verse says Jesus is “His Word.” This Muslim is going against his own Qur’an. I want him to show anyone else called the “Word of Allah” or “His Word” etc. Any language similar to this of any one else besides Jesus.
Islam teaches that the word of Allah is eternal now this Abdoool has a choice he can either agree that Allah’s word is eternal, but he doesn’t want to admit that because that means Jesus would be eternal. The other option he has is to say Allah’s word is not eternal but created meaning the Qur’an is created and not eternal. Do you see the dilemma Muslims face when asked this question?
According to their own sources, the word of Allah is “Kalimatu minhu” (a Word from him) and wakalimatuhu (his Word) in referring to Jesus both have the same meaning saying Jesus came from Allah as his Word. This title is only given to Jesus, no other prophet bears the same title as Jesus including Muhammad.
Muslims try their best to downplay this unique title only given to Jesus, they will try to say that this refers to when Allah created Isa by saying “Be (kun fa-yakūnu) and it is.” The problem is that when you check out the word-for-word breakdown of the Arabic wakalimatuhu is a 3rd person masculine singular possessive pronoun, with special emphasis on the word possessive.
Possession would be in the genitive case translated “of” if we were studying the Greek New Testament in the Bible that would correlate to “the Son of God” indicating possession. We can confirm this when diving into how the word is used throughout the Qur’an by clicking on the link (wakalimatuhu) you’ll be directed to another page which displays every occurrence of the word.
Virgin birth -The Qur’an gives an account of the birth of Jesus in chapter 3. Mary is described as being a virgin, chosen by God, and considered with great honor. “Behold! the angels said: O Mary! Allah gives you glad tidings of a Word from Him: his name will be Christ Jesus, the son of Mary.” [Qur’an 3:45] . Verse 47 relates the response of and to Mary, “She said: O my Lord! How shall I have a son when no man has touched me? He said: ‘Even so: Allah creates what He wills: When He has decreed a plan, He merely says to it, ‘Be,’ and it is!” The Qur’an thus affirms and Muslims believe that Jesus was born of the virgin Mary. The birth is seen as a sign (ayah) of Allah’s power and as a miraculous event. And Muslims have a high regard also for Mary. However, the Qur’an presents Jesus as the son of Mary and not as the Son of God, a significant point particularly emphasized.
Like Adam (pbuh) -Though the unique birth of Jesus with one parent is no indication of divinity just as Adam’s creation was without any parentage [Qur’an 3:59] .
The above quote from Islamicity.org speaks of the Islamic teaching that Adam and Isa (Jesus) were created in the same manner. Comparing the 2 they claim since Jesus had a mother and no father that’s not proof of diety because Adam had no father or mother. The problem with this comparison is that mankind had a beginning, therefore, of course, Adam didn’t have parents. But this doesn’t make him the same as Jesus, as this still doesn’t change the fact that Jesus is called the Word of Allah and a Spirit from Allah while Adam is not.
Also, the concept that Allah says “Be and it is” is not true. Allah created Adam using his hands from mud (clay)[2] and then blew his spirit into him. Did Allah say “Be” before he used his hands to mould Adam or afterwards? If before then what’s the purpose of saying “Be” that’s like building a car and once you’re finished saying “Be” that makes no sense! You still used your hands to make the car the same as Allah made Adam.
If he said “Be” after moulding the clay with his hands makes no sense Allah still used mud and his hands to create Adam and THEN said “Be” after the fact? If we look into the account of how Isa (non-biblical Jesus) was created we see that he was not made with mud or clay, and Allah didn’t use his hands.
The creation of Isa involved Jibril blowing into Islamic Mary’s vagina found in the Surat l-anbiyāa (The Prophets). This is completely different from how Adam was created! The relevant verse is provided below, bear in mind the different translations and how they render the verse, keep in mind that words in the brackets [] are not found in the Arabic.
Look at some of the rediculous and deceptive ways Muslims translate the verse. Halali & Khan says “We breathed into (the sleeves of ) her (shirt or garment)” since when do babies come from the sleeves of woman? Pickthall says “We breathed into (something)” so Allah doesn’t know what that “something” is? Saheeh International translates it as “We breathed into [garment]” again is Allah saying babies come from clothing, the god of Islam is in the dry cleaning business?
The Arabic is clear it says Jibril breathed into Mary’s vagina (فَرْجَهَا, farjaha) and Muslims claim they hold Mary in the highest honour, put the word in Google Translate and you’ll get “her vagina.”
Here’s a screenshot of the Arabic in Google Translate, try it for yourself.
There’s no way around it when we look directly at the sources of Islam instead of taking what Muslims tell us at face value we see they are not telling the truth. And that’s how these Muslim missionaries like Dawahpedia lie to people to deceive them into a false religious sex cult.
Conclusion
What have we learnt today? Well that Jesus is called “the Word of Allah and a spirit from Allah” this is a possessive noun in the genitive case. No other person in the Qur’an has this title, it belongs solely to Jesus. Adam and Jesus were not created the same, Allah used his hands in creating Adam, and Jibril blew into the false Mary’s vagina making her pregnant with Isa (fake Jesus). And this can be confirmed by copying the Arabic text and translating it through Google Translate.
Remember here we do not hate Muslims, we love them and want them to come to Jesus Christ for eternal life. Jesus Christ said He’s the only way to the Father, in other words unless you believe in the real Jesus who’s the Son of God who died on the cross and rose from the dead on the 3rd day. Then you’ll cannot have eternal life. Make a choice Muslims what’s it going to be Muhammad and the Qur’an or Jesus Christ and the Holy Bible?

[1] What is nominal Christianity? Nominalism can be understood as possessing a name, title, or label that is ultimately meaningless due to its empty formality. Thus, a nominal Christian is simply a “Christian” in name only. Though they may attend church services or may believe some of the basic doctrines of the Christian faith, they lack a true relationship with Christ and have failed to surrender the entirety of their lives to Him as their Lord and Savior by way of genuine faith and repentance. The church of Sardis is a prime example of nominal Christianity. Revelation 3:1 states, “And to the angel of the church in Sardis write…’I know your works, that you have a name of being alive, but you are dead.’” Though many in the church of Sardis claimed Christianity and performed many of the common church functions, Jesus boldly declared that their name was baseless, and they were spiritually dead. Though it may seem harsh or unloving, Jesus had compassion on these nominal Christians and was wanting to make them aware of the reality of their spiritual condition before it was too late.

[2]15:26 Surely We created man of a clay of mudmoulded,
One of the polemic arguments Muslims pose to Christians is that Jesus Christ “prayed like a Muslim” if you’ve never heard this assertion you might become confused. Well, fret not because we’re going to prove without a shadow of a doubt that the Lord Jesus Christ was not a Muslim.
The 1st argument is that Jesus Christ while praying fell on His face, Muslims believe this is evidence that Christ is a Muslim. They read the words “fell on his face” and automatically believe Jesus Christ and others found in the Bible prayed like Muslims.[1]
A few things to point out in this verse, when the Bible speaks of falling on their face it refers to a person laying face down on their stomach, not praying in the same prostration Muslims perform. Another point is in Matthew 26:39 and other verses Jesus Christ is calling God His Father, while Muslims are not allowed to call Allah father. Here are some verses in the Qur’ān which prove that Allah is father to no one.
When Christians pray we call God Father because through the new birth according to the Lord Jesus we’re made children of God (Matthew 5:9, Luke 20:36, John 11:52). The apostle Paul following in the steps of Christ also said we’re the children of God (Romans 8:16, Romans 8:21, Galatians 3:26), additionally, the apostle John also proclaimed that believers in Christ Jesus are children of God (1 John 3:10, 1 John 5:2).
Christians also pray in many ways, we also fall on our face (lay face down), get on our knees, look up to heaven and even pray sitting down. The importance is not on how you pray but just that you do pray. The fact that we call God Father distinguishes us from Muslims.
2nd point is Jesus Christ prayed “looking up to heaven” this destroys the claim that Christ was a Muslim as there are Hadiths which say your eyes will be snatched out if we look toward the sky during prayer.
If this Hadith is authentic, why weren’t the eyes of Jesus Christ snatched away when He prayed looking up to heaven? Many Christians including myself have on multiple occasions looked up to heaven while praying, and what do you know we still have our eyes.
Here we have 3 verses which speak of the Lord Jesus Christ looking up to heaven while He’s praying, Muslims don’t look to heaven when praying. This is solid evidence that Jesus was not a Muslim.
Conclusion
When we examine the Muslim claim against what the Bible says we see that all the lies of Islam die, without lies Islam dies. Jesus Christ called God Father, and the Qur’ān prohibits anyone from calling Allah, father. The Lord Jesus also gazed heavenward while praying this is something Muslims do not do while praying.

[1] The remainder of this article will examine passages from various books of the Bible and compare them to the way Muslims pray. The most recognisable posture in the Muslim prayer is touching the forehead to the ground. It is the apex of a person’s prayer and it is mentioned in the authentic traditions of Prophet Muhammad as the position in which a believer is as close to God as it is possible to be. “The nearest one comes to his Lord is when he is kowtowing.” Consider the following verses from the Bible. “And he (Jesus) went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed…” (Matthew 26:39) Aisha Stacey (2014, September 15).

A Muslim site called “Calling Christians” is maintained by an Abdoool by the name of Ijaz Ahmed. Like all Muslims, he tries his best to attack the Bible and destroys Islam in the process. We’ll go through some of his quotes and answer them.
If God is love (1 John 4:8), why are babies sent to burn in hell forever if they’re not baptised? How is this ‘loving’?
In summary, Pharoah instructed Shiphrah and Puah to murder newborn Hebrew male babies. They did not follow through with the order as they feared God. They let the boys live. The Phraoah found out that they did not complete their task and summoned them to answer for their failure. They feigned innocence and ignorance by deceiving the king that they could not reach the women on time when they gave birth. Their lives were clearly spared by their deception and God rewarded them for their deed without reproaching their lie in any way. Is this not a clear example of dissimulation?
According to Surah 18:74, a story in the Qur’ān, Musa (Moses) is sent to learn from a man called al-Khidr. They come across a little boy who al-Khidr killed by cutting the little boy’s throat and smashing his head against a wall. Moses exclaimed he (al-Khidr) killed an innocent soul and accused him of doing an extremely evil thing.
The reason the boy was killed was due to fear of him becoming an “unbeliever.” This means the boy did nothing wrong, yet was killed on the assumption he would become an apostate. The gruesome details explain how this boy was killed, his throat was cut, and his head was torn off and smashed against a wall? Moses had enough sense to say you’ve killed an innocent soul (in this instance a young child).
Here’s the tafsir confirming that this little boy didn’t practice rebellion, it’s not like he was disobedient and was killed because of it (even though that would be evil as well). No! He was already destined to become an apostate. How can Allah be the most merciful but decree for a boy to be killed who committed no wrong yet? Both al-Jalalayn and Ibn Abbas are provided to prove the point that this was an evil unjust act.
The Tafsir of al-Jalalayn and Ibn-Abbas state that if this boy were to have had the opportunity to become an apostate, he would have negatively impacted the rest of the Muslims. And this was the “justification” for killing the boy, Allah is insecure in that he has a man to kill an innocent boy because he thinks this boy will cause others to leave Islam.
What’s more shocking is that Islam teaches determinism, in other words, Allah is the one who determined for this little boy to become an apostate! That’s how satanic the god of Islam is, let’s provide evidence from their sources.
If Allah decrees (fix) a man to commit adultery then why wouldn’t Allah also decree for this boy to become an apostate in order to have him killed? This is the evil of Islam, an unjust god who creates a person to be disobedient and then wants that individual killed for disobeying Allah when in reality they’re obeying Allah. This is ludicrous and completely illogical. Read the ramblings of Shaykh Muhammad Saalih al-Munajjid when he was asked the question:
Is it correct for a sinner to excuse his falling into sin by saying that this is what Allaah has decreed for him?
In other words, the individual is unaware that Allah decreed for him to sin, therefore, this is proof of a person’s will? Regardless if this is unseen or not Allah loves sin and causes them to do so.
There’s no teaching in the Bible which says babies go to hell because they are sinners,[1] babies because of the fall when Adam sinned are not sinless they inherited a sinful nature from birth. But they have not personally committed any sins to be accounted guilty of before God.
In Islam, Allah kills little children who haven’t sinned! Islam is a nonsensical religion for those who have no functioning brain cells. Here’s a hadith from Sahih Muslim which goes against the claim that Islam doesn’t teach babies are punished for sin and sent to hell.
Aisha said to Muhammad there’s happiness for the child, which is a bird in paradise, as this baby didn’t commit sin. Muhammad tells her that this is not the case, babies are made for paradise and hell before they are born still being in the father’s loins.
Let us not forget Ijaz Ahmed said “If God is love (1 John 4:8), why are babies sent to burn in hell forever if they’re not baptised? How is this ‘loving’?” The Bible never says people (in this case babies) go to hell because they are not baptised. I wonder if he will change his mind and recant what he said, or will he continue to spout his nonsense and remain a massive hypocrite?
Conclusion
Muslims like Ijaz Ahmed are no different from the rest who try with their deceptive dawah to trick people into believing the nonsense in the Qur’ān. When we challenge their claims it’s abundantly clear all of the arguments they bring hold no weight, not only do they hold no weight but you find the hypocrisy in their beliefs. They say you believe a man is God yet Allah has body parts like a man and will come to Muslims in a shape they will recognise, massive hypocrisy! This is only part one stick around for part two to experience the comedy of the religion of Islam. And as always we don’t hate Muslims, we are only here to share the truth with them so that they may have their eyes open and come to Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour for eternal life (John 3:16).
Footnotes
[1] One of the questions people ask before they read my book is this: “If infants are not guilty of sin, then why do some infants die? Isn’t death a result, or wage, of sin?” That is a great question. Death is a result or wage of sin. And some infants die. But it does not follow that their deaths are a result of either personal or inherited guilt. Instead, death is the result of God’s universal judgment against sin. Even infants can be caught up in the horrible effects of living in a fallen world. Consider one example of the death of an infant in Scripture: David’s first son. Second Samuel 11 details the awful events of David’s adultery with Bathsheba. David’s cover-up ended in the death of her husband, Uriah. In chapter 12, the prophet Nathan confronted the king with a story that ended with the accusation, “You are the man!” Struck by that truth, David admitted his sin. God forgave David but announced that there would be severe consequences for his actions. One of those consequences was that the child in Bathsheba’s womb would die (12:14). Scripture tells us that the child was born and became sick. David fasted and begged God to spare his son’s life. But the infant died. Question: What sinful action did the infant commit in order to earn the punishment of death? The answer (of course): Nothing. The infant had done nothing wrong. The child didn’t die because of Adam’s sin. The text is clear that the child didn’t die because of his own sin. The child died as a direct result of David’s sin. Our sins can have horrible consequences for other people, including infants. Harwood, Adam. The Spiritual Condition of Infants : A Biblical-Historical Survey and Systematic Proposal.

Have you ever heard Muslims say that Islam is a religion of peace? There are 2 types of Muslims the first one is fully aware that Islam teaches war against unbelievers, and that Muslims are not to take Kufir as friends. I’ve experienced this firsthand and these are followers of Muhammad who are staying true to what Islam teaches.
Groups such as ISIS are practising the true Islam as found in the Qur’ān and taught Muhammad the most obvious false prophet in history. The second group are Muslims who are genuinely sincere but are ignorant of the teachings of Islam, especially reverts who never looked into Islam for themselves.
While speaking with Abdoools they may quote Sūrat 5:32 sūrat l-māidah to prove Islam is a religion of peace, they might be as mentioned ignorant or purposefully trying to deceive people.
Sūrah 5:32 Prescribed For The Jews
Notice the first initial words at the start of verse 5:32 “For that cause We ordained for the Children of Israel”, so this verse is prescribed to the Jews, not Muslims. Continuing on the verse says “whosoever killeth a human being for other than manslaughter or corruption in the earth, it shall be as if he had killed all mankind”.
I see why Muslims run to this verse to prove Islam is peaceful, the problem is this is not a command to the Muslims this was commanded for the Jews. Now, this verse was taken from the Mishnah, therefore, how can this be from Allah when the Mishnah is not from the Torah or the Injil?
This is only found in the Bible, yet why are Muslims using this verse claiming Islam is about peace when it’s talking to the children of Israel? Muslims are not children of Israel, and again this is prescribed to the Jews according to the Qur’ān not the Muslims.
Islam is not an Abrahamic faith, only Judaism and Christianity are Abrahamic, Christianity started with Jews as the first believers in Jesus Christ were Jewish. Remember Muslims claim they are from Ishmael which also is not true according to Genesis 25:1-6, Arabs are actually descendants from Keturah.
Listen to what Muslims are supposed to do to those who are against Allah and Muhammad? “they will be killed or crucified, or have their hands and feet on alternate sides cut off, or will be expelled out of the land.”, do these words sound peaceful? Cutting off limbs and crucifying people is the complete opposite of peace.
Conclusion
Why do Muslims claim Islam is a religion of peace and try to pass off a verse commanded to the Jews and show people who are ignorant of what Islam teaches? It’s either out of pure ignorance or to be deceitful. In the West, most people are extremely ignorant of Islam, but sites like these are here to speak the truth about Islam, that it would be exposed for what it is, that it’s a demonic religion.

[1] Meanwhile, Muslim crowds worldwide were hardly condemning the attacks. Besides the now-infamous Palestinians dancing in the streets for CNN’s cameramen at the news that the World Trade Center towers had collapsed, demonstrators around the world chanted their approval. These people were not all Wahhabis or uneducated mobs. “Reporters from Arab shores,” according to Johns Hopkins University professor Fouad Ajami, “tell us of affluent men and women, some with years of education in American universities behind them, celebrating the cruel deed of Muhammad Atta and his hijackers.” A Libyan told the New York Times: “September 11 was the happiest day of my life.” As crowds chanted their approval of bin Laden’s terrorism, even imams who condemned the terrorist attacks declined opportunities to condemn also the imams who approved of the attacks— a fact with enormous significance for the Bush/Blair attempts to portray the terrorists as a fringe group within Islam. Soon after September 11 , for example, Jake Tapper of the Internet magazine Salon tried to get the communications director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), an American Muslim named Ibrahim Hooper, to speak out against Osama bin Laden. Hooper ducked: “We condemn terrorism, we condemn the attack on the buildings,” Hooper said. But why not condemn bin Laden by name, especially after President Bush has now stated that he was clearly responsible for the Sept. 11 attacks? “If Osama bin Laden was behind it, we condemn him by name,” Hooper said. But why the “if ” why qualify the response? Hooper said he resented the question. And what about prior acts of terror linked to bin Laden? Or that bin Laden has urged Muslims to kill Americans? Again, Hooper demurred, saying only that he condemns acts of terror. Both groups [CAIR and the American Muslim Council] also refuse to outright condemn Islamic terrorist groups Hamas and Hezbollah. Spencer, Robert. Islam Unveiled : Disturbing Questions about the Worlds Fastest-Growing Faith, Encounter Books, 2003. (pp 16, 17).
One thing I appreciate about Muslims is the overabundance of comedy they provide, you can find an endless array of articles showing a lack of knowledge on their part. The strawman arguments and nonsensical rhetoric are astounding! Nonetheless, we care about Muslims and are taking every single argument captive and making it subject to Christ.
This Abdoool by the name of Dr. Haque who runs the site Always Truth! wrote an atrocious article on the Apostle Paul, let’s go through all of his claims to see if they hold up to scrutiny?
So called “Saint” Paul had been the bitterest enemy of Jesus throughout the life of Jesus according to Encyclopedia Brittanica! After Jesus (PBUH) temporarily left this world his enmity to Jesus continued and also against his true followers and his message; only it took a more clever, more shrewd turn; to kill Jesus teachings & message through inventing Jesus worship.
It’s true that Paul was a bitter enemy of Christ here we would agree, even Paul admits he went around killing Christians as Saul (Act 22:4, 26:11, 1 Corinthians 15:9, Galatians 1:13, 1:23). What this Abdoool won’t mention is how Paul was converted when he encountered the Risen Christ on the road to Damascus.
This Abdool (Dr. Haque) tries to deny Paul but let’s get him busted quickly from his Qur’ān. According to sūrat yā sīn 36:13-17 we’re told that 3 Messengers in total were sent to the city of Antioch.
The first two messengers that were sent are Sham`un (Peter) and Yuhanna (John), the people denied them and a 3rd messenger was sent. The name of the 3rd is Bulus (Paul) according to their own scholars. We’ll provide the tafsir from Ibn Kathir who says Paul was this 3rd messenger.
Dr. Haque doesn’t know his own Qur’ān as Kathir says Paul was a messenger of God. He also claims Paul “invented” worship of Jesus Christ. Let’s put that argument to rest as well. In John’s Gospel which was written before Paul’s letters we read how the disciples worshipped Jesus Christ and called Him God. One of the more known passages is doubting Thomas (John 20:28).
The context: Christ was crucified and buried the disciples were hiding from the Romans and Jewish leaders. Christ appeared to the first time but Thomas was not present. The disciples told him that Jesus appeared to them, but Thomas didn’t believe and said unless he saw the holes in Jesus’ hands and feet he wouldn’t believe.
The doors were shut as they stood in one of the disciple’s home (John 20:19) Jesus Christ appeared to them a second time, this time Thomas was present.
Thomas called Jesus his God! In Greek the wording is even more powerful Thomas says ὁ κύριός μου καὶ ὁ θεός μου (The Lord of me and the God of me) is the literal meaning in Greek. A challenge to the Abdoool Dr. to refute what the Bible says here. Even the Qur’ān shows that Jesus is God as he is called the word of Allah [4:171].
Barnabas companion of Paul brought him to James and Peter
… The closest despises like St. Barnabas and James strongly rejected Paul’s claims of divinity of Jesus and also his fabrication of original sin and Jesus being died for our sins.
The Abdoool Dr claims Barnabas and James rejected Paul. Notice how no references are given, Paul in the book of Acts which is written by Luke the physician says that they (Peter, James and John) sent Paul and Barnabas as beloved brothers.
Both Paul and Barnabas were representatives of the teachings of the apostles, therefore, they were all in agreement and taught the same doctrine. They gave Paul the right hand of fellowship found in the book of Galatians.
See how the Muslim argument cannot stand against the truth, they can lie as much as they like, like their prophet but it will not benefit them as we continue to demolish the lies of Islam.
Called Christians first in Antioch
The people who did not buy Paul’s claims were called Unitarians. The word Christianity was not there yet! Rabbi Paul did not try Jews to convert to his faith, rather his all efforts were to lure Non Jews wrongly called Gentiles which in Hebrew means bastard!
Nowhere in any of the manuscripts will you find the word “Unitarian” this is a lie. But we can show you in the Bible the word Christian, also the word Gentile doesn’t mean bastard. These Muslims have no honor and will lie non-stop.
Here is one of 3 verses which mentions the word Christian(s) but this Abdoool would have people to believe otherwise.
Next are 2 definitions for the word Gentile in Hebrew and Greek, none of them mention anything about the word bastard.
Lexicon Strong’s gôyLexicon Strong’s ethnos
Do you see the deception dawah missionaries will try to get away with? This is Islam, lies and deception!
Paul Never Taught Christians To Commit Sin
Paul made his religion very delicious by saying Jesus paid for all your sins so feel free to commit these sins thus nullifying all the teachings of Jesus and all other true Prophets whose main purpose was to cleanse the society of crimes, sins, injustices, exploitation, oppression and suppression of common people! Paul also promoted the idea that kings and rulers are from God so don’t oppose them thus cementing king-clergy bond to exploits common people!
First look at the lie from this Abdoool, can you show us a reference Mr. Haque where Paul says Christians are allowed to commit sins? I would like a reference from the Bible otherwise you are lying.
The Lord Jesus was the first one to say He would give His life as a ransom paying for the sins of the world. And only those who accept the free gift of salvation will be saved. Those who reject it will only do so to their own detriment. Read the words of Christ.
On the other hand Paul gave clergies blackmailing power. After knowing the “sins” and crimes of common people the clergy were able to exploit the “sinners”. He even allowed adoption of pagan practices such as making pictures and statues in the Churches.
Another lie from the Muhammadian, a challenge to Dr. Abdoool to provide a reference that shows Paul said it’s ok to make pictures and statues. There are none! And he knows it, but his prophet indeed adopted pagan practices. Allah was worshipped by the pagan Arabs as one of many polytheistic gods found around the Kaaba.
Muhammad was french kissing stones, this is a practice from the pagan Arabs.
Verses in the Qur’ān provide proof the name Allah existed in pre-Islamic Arabia. Certain pagan tribes worshipped a god whom they called ‘Allah’ and whom attested to being the creator of heaven and earth, holding the highest position among the gods. The Quraish and other tribes believed in Allah, whom they believed as the “Lord of the House” (Kaaba). It’s clear that the Qur’ānic conception of Allah is not new.
Paul Taught The Same As Jesus’ To Love Our Enemies
This “sweet religion” later emerged as Christianity, in particular trinity type of Christianity. It attracted a lot of followers as it had backing of both kings and the corrupt, self serving immoral and unethical clergy. The Trinitarian Christian’s then started killing Unitarians who were actual true followers of Jesus. This topic is well covered by Ahmad Thompson in his book “Blood on the Cross”!
The same was taught by Paul the Apostle following in the footsteps of Christ, while there are many verses from the writings of Paul, we need only show a few to get the point across. Paul echos the words of Christ in Romans 12:14 telling believers to bless our enemies (εὐλογεῖτε τοὺς διώκοντας ὑμᾶς εὐλογεῖτε καὶ μὴ καταρᾶσθε)
Paul once again admonishes the believers in Rome telling them to feed and give drink to our enemies. These are the same teachings of Jesus Christ provided above in Matthew 5:44, as well as in Luke 6:27, 35.
Muhammad taught hatred and evil let’s show just a few examples found in the Islamic sources. First, let’s observe what the Qur’ān has to say about non-Muslims?
Muslims are forbidden to have non-Muslims as friends, we read this here in verse 3:28 and also in 5:51; 98:6 calling us “the worst of creatures”. Muhammad said he will expel the Jews and the Christians from the Arabian Peninsula.
Ibn Kathir in his Tafsir on verse 3:28 says Allah calls for the Muslims to curse non-Muslims in their hearts while pretending to be friends.
These are teachings of hate from Muhammad, there’s nothing Islam has to offer that is good. Even the verses which Muslims try to pass off as good are not verses speaking to the Muslims but to others. Paul was superior over Muhammad and taught love not hate.
Allah the Unjust god
Paul’s letters comprise about half of New Testament and his teachings more than half of all teachings of present day Christianity! His theories were ridiculous! Why the God, the King of kings can not forgive without sacrifice? Who can stop Him doing so? In Islam for example there is no concept of unforgiven original sin. Adam and Eve made mistake but they felt ashamed and the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful God forgave them when they repented. Every infant born is absolutely innocent and if a child dies he will go to paradise no matter in which religion he or she is born!
(1) “Why the God, the King of kings can not forgive without sacrifice?” God has prescribed the conditions on how mankind was to have atonement for sins.
This concept of sacrificing to God is not foreign to the Qur’ān as Abraham was given a sacrifice for his son (in the Qur’ān that being Ishmael instead of Isaac), we can find this in sūrat l-ṣāfāt.
Therefore, Muslims are completely unaware that this concept of sacrifices was taken from the Bible and used in the Qur’ān. We can find the actual story in Genesis 22, for our purposes we’ll show the relevant passage.
The angel of the LORD who’s known as God in the Old Testament is the one who called out to Abraham, the Qur’ān says “We” as in Allah called out to Abraham. Since the Qur’ān claims to confirm the scriptures before it namely the Torah and Injil, that means the Qur’ān is saying the angel of the LORD is God. As you very well see how the Qur’ān fails once you compare it to the word of God the Bible.
(2) “In Islam for example there is no concept of unforgiven original sin.” This is untrue, Adam and Moses debated on this subject in which Moses tried to blame Adam for getting humanity kicked out of Jannah. Adam said it was not his fault as Allah written his fate and it was something that had to happen as it was already decreed by Allah that Adam would sin and thereby get kicked out of Jannah.
(3) “Every infant born is absolutely innocent and if a child dies he will go to paradise no matter in which religion he or she is born!” Not according to their prophet who says children go to hell in Sahih Muslim 266c.
Paul degrades the God all Might when he preaches, god nurturing in a human’s womb, being persecuted and being hanging on a cross! Why the God all Mighty will inflict Himself with such insults and Misery! These theories do not make any sense at all and that’s the reason many by name Christians do not believe in these and many revert to Islam that gives very logical and true answers to all these questions and remove all confusions and shows the straight path of success in both worlds!
The reason why Muslims cannot understand Christianity is because in Islam there’s no concept of justice, atonement or love. Allah has no love, the Qur’ān teaches Allah only loves those he chooses to love and hates those he chooses to hate. It seems his love or hate is in response to human behavior.
Allah is a distant god who doesn’t desire a loving relationship with his creation, Allah is too proud to bring himself to our level. Allah is too proud to bring himself to our level.
Allah is limited in his abilities, he cannot enter his creation, have a son or become a man, therefore, he’s not almighty. The moment you say that God “cannot” or question his ability means he’s not almighty, Allah is incapable of having a son because he NEEDS a wife in order to procreate like all humans according to sūrat l-anʿām.
At. Barnabas had described in his gospel that it was not Jesus who was crucified but rather the traitor disciple who took bribe from the enemies of Jesus and brought Roman soldiers to arrest Jesus, his face was transformed to look like Jesus. This also explains ridiculous behavior while carrying cross and hanging on cross!
The God all Mighty the Creator and providers of all of the universe and whatever it contains and beyond not only protected and saved Jesus physically but also his message and life in the final divine book i.e.; Quran. Quran is thus the absolutely authentic place where one can visit Jesus, his virgin mother who never married or dated anyone, his grand mother and other relatives!
This Abdoool said Allah’s message was protected yet in the Hasan (good) Hadith Aisha said that the verse of breastfeeding an adult 10 times and stoning was revealed to Muhammad but a sheep ate those verses. We want to know where those verses ae if the Qur’ān is preserved, can they recite the verse of breastfeeding?
If they can recite it I challenge any Muslim to provide the recitation of these verses. I guarantee they not one single Muslim can recite these verses. This means the Qur’ān has not been preserved.
The Qur’ān’s Conflicting Views With Science
Quran is the living miracle as it is the only book in the world that is preserved and ever fresh in its original language over 1450 years. It’s absolutely immune to the effects of time. It’s dust and rust free, word by word from the God and no conflict with science because writer of Quran and Science is One and the Same! There are no 2 versions of Quran. You go to any country and any mosque you will find exactly the same Quran.
He says the Qur’ān is not against science, let’s check this claim to see if it’s true. The Qur’ān describes how procreation works between a man and woman in sūrat l-ṭāriq.
In this verse what is the “gushing fluid” spoken of here? According to their scholars, this is sperm which man is created from, this is how the Tafsir describes it. al-Jalalayn says in his Tafsir.
The gushing fluid spoken of here is sperm and this sperm is coming from the man AND the WOMAN. This is completely against modern science as women cannot produce the sperm needed to fertilize an egg.[1]
Ibn Kathir says in his Tafsir on Surah 86:6 that the sexual fluid bursting forth from BOTH the man AND the WOMAN creates a child, make note of the highlighted portions provided.
We’ve just read from a medical journal that women produce eggs not fluid which creates a child. It’s the egg of the woman and the sperm of a man that produces a baby. In Islam Allah is saying the white fluid from the man and the yellow fluid from the woman is what makes a baby. This is completely false! Are Abdoools saying that Allah doesn’t know how a baby is made?
That’s not all because Ibn Kathir also says that this sperm which comes from the woman is coming from her chest! Here’s another medical site which tells us that sperm cells are male gametes and function to find the female gamete in order to fuse together. This process happens when sperm enters the female sex organ through the male sex organ.
What Islam teaches is completely against science so how can this Abdoool say that science supports the Qur’ān?
Qur’ān Was Translated And Forgotten
For something to be accepted as authentic it must be in its original language word by word from the God in its original language! Translations can never be equal to original! Even one word and one paragraph could be translated in so many ways! Only and Quran fulfills this condition and therefore it makes a perfect sense that Quran is the final divine book who is also entirely memorized by heart by millions!
Being that Mr.Haque rejects translations I guess he has nothing because even the Arabic Qur’ān was forgotten. Sahih Muslim says they used to recite a Surah that resembled Bara’at, but it was forgotten. Reading the words “and I have forgotten it”, shows that they don’t have the Qur’ān.
In the second highlighted portion it says there was a surah that resembled Musabbihat and it was forgotten, only a small portion was remembered. Again how does this help the so-called “perfect preservation” of the Qur’ān? Muslims don’t have the Qur’ān, the majority of Muslims recite the Qur’ān according to Hafs an Asim not according to Muhammad.
Conclusion
As you can see this Abdoool was busted and has nothing, he tried to attack Paul the Apostle but in his own books it says Paul is a messenger of Allah, and he taught the same as Jesus Christ. Paul was accepted by the Apostles Peter, James and John and was commissioned to preach the Gospel by the Lord Jesus Himself. Unfortunately for Dr. Haque Muhammad was a pagan who kissed black stones and worships a false god called Allah. The Qur’ān is not preserved and Islam is completely removed from science as it claims women produce sperm.
Muslims come to Jesus Christ only He can save you, start reading a better book which is the Bible. By trusting in the true God of the Bible only then will you make it to paradise.

[1] Women don’t produce sperm because they do not have the Y chromosome, which possess a gene that tells the body to produce male features. Humans, like all mammals, have two separate sexes. Most animals have two different sized games, where one sex produces a few large egg and the other sex produces lots and lots of smaller sperm. The theory is that this is to maximize the nutrients the young start with, the large energy rich egg, and the likelihood that the egg will get fertilized, using lots of sperm to ensure one makes it.

One trend you’ll find among Muslims is pretending to be Christian, saying they “reverted” (converted) to Islam, in order to dupe people into believing in Islam. Once you start to examine if this is true you’ll soon realise that it’s a farce. Susie Brackenborough is one such person who’s written an article for Islamonline.net claiming to have been a follower of Christ only to leave and become a Muslim. Either she’s being deceptive or just really ignorant of what true Christianity is, you can be the judge.
I Couldn’t Actually Say Why I Was Christian?
Being a practicing Christian for almost 16 of my 22 years of life, it may seem strange as to why I have turned to Islam. Not so I say! I was asked one day to “prove Christianity and why you are a Christian and not a Muslim” by a Muslim friend at university. I thought that this was going to be an easy task, but I couldn’t actually say why I was Christian, only this is the way that I had been brought up by my family. My research needed extensive reading and questioning. I would say to everyone who reads this whether Muslim or not – ‘ASK YOURSELF WHY YOU BELIEVE WHAT YOU DO.’
There’s a huge red flag, Susie said she was a “Christian” for 16 years, yet she was only “Christian” by name being brought up by her family. This is not what constitutes being a Christian, being born into a family which professes to be Christian doesn’t make a person Christian. It’s like saying sleeping in an air hanger would make someone an aeroplane. It’s quite telling that someone who would make this statement knows absolutely nothing about Christianity.
To answer her question of why I believe what I do, is that the Death, Burial and Resurrection of Jesus Christ is the best historically attested event which stands against every criticism. There’s no one who has been able to debunk the Death and Resurrection of Christ.
The next few quotes from Susie prove she has no idea what Christianity teaches about Jesus Christ or any of the fundamental doctrines we hold.
So why wasn’t I satisfied with Christianity? Anybody who is going to really believe in something must know something about it. If I said to someone that a Porsche could go faster than a Skoda, for them to accept that fully they must have knowledge of what a Porsche and a Skoda are, otherwise if they accept what I say without knowledge they are living a life of ignorance and/or arrogance. Anybody who wanted to know the truth and why they agree to or follow a particular way would seek out why. So for me to accept Christianity I needed the knowledge about the fundamentals – the belief that Jesus (AS) was the son of God and that the Trinity existed are two fundamental points. It is not good enough just to accept this, as you believe what has been taught to you. For someone without knowledge about cars, the Porsche may indeed go faster than the Skoda in reality, but if I was a so called knowledgeable and respected person and I taught them that the Skoda is faster than the Porsche, then I would be believed by people who have not questioned what these two cars are really like and they take my word as they think that I have knowledge. But they would not be believing the truth.
She admits she lacks knowledge about the Lord Jesus or the Trinity, these are the 2 biggest points of contention when Christians engage with Muslims. The issue is that the Qur’ān gets both wrong here are past articles that explain how Islam gets it wrong.
We’re going to clear up Susie’s confusion starting with her first question.
The Son Of God And The Trinity … Is It Not Made Explicitly Clear In The Bible?
I believe that religion is not here to confuse us in any way and the message of Allah (SWT) is very clear; so my first question is – if Jesus (AS) is the son of God and the Trinity was what Christian people believe it to be, why is it not made explicitly clear in the Bible?
While the word Trinity is not in the Bible, the word Tawhid is not in the Qur’ān, but the teachings/concept of the Trinity is certainly in the Bible. In the Gospel of Matthew chapter 3 John the Baptist was asked by Jesus Christ to baptise Him. John shocked by the request immediately says “I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?” (Matthew 3:14).
Jesus tells Him that it’s necessary to fulfill all righteousness (Matthew 3:15), John then baptises Him and we’re introduced to the Trinity.
Notice in one moment in time we have all 3 Persons of the Trinity present (1), Jesus Christ, in the water (2) the Spirit of God also known as the Holy Spirit (3) a voice from heaven which is God the Father. How can Susie claim to have been a Christian for 16 years have she never seen this passage before? There are others, but let’s go to the Qur’ān to further prove our point.
In the Qur’ān we have a Trinity a false one but 3 nonetheless who are creators. Muslims agree that Allah is the creator, but what do they say to the fact that Allah admits he’s not the only creator.
23:14 sūrat l-mu’minūn (The Believers)
This verse according to their own book claims that Allah is not the only creator, what do I mean by creator? Just to make it clear we’re not talking about someone making a painting or building a table etc. Muslims try to claim Allah is comparing himself to humans as “creators”. No! This is not what’s being spoken of here in this ayat. Allah is saying there are other creators (gods) but Allah is the best of all the other gods.
Additionally, the word l-khāliqīna as a genitive masculine noun showing possession. The genitive case focuses on the active participle “of” is what’s important, in this context Allah being the best of the creators.
23:14 Arabic grammar, syntax and morphology
So this means Susie’s god is not the only god according to the confession of Allah which makes Islam a polytheistic religion.
Was Jesus The Only Begotten Son Of God?
Was Jesus (AS) the only begotten son of God? No, quite clearly not. Long before Jesus (AS) was born, David (AS) said in Psalm 2:7, ‘I will declare the decree, the Lord hath said unto me, Thou are my Son; this day have I begotten thee.’ So, David (AS) is also God’s begotten son??!!!
David is not “the only begotten son of God” and neither was anyone else called the Only begotten Son of God as Jesus Christ is. Just for your own perusal, these are some translations of Psalm 2:7 and in none of these translations will you see the word “only”.
I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee. (KJV)
“I will declare the decree: The LORD has said to Me, ‘You are My Son, Today I have begotten You. (NKJV)
The king proclaims the LORD’s decree: “The LORD said to me, ‘You are my son. Today I have become your Father. (NLT)
I will proclaim the LORD’s decree: He said to me, “You are my son; today I have become your father. (NIV)
I will tell of the decree: The LORD said to me, “You are my Son; today I have begotten you. (ESV)
I will declare the LORD’s decree. He said to me, “You are my Son;[fn] today I have become your Father. (CSB)
Notice in none of the translations provided will you find the words “the only begotten son of God” in Psalm 2:7. But the Bible does say about Jesus Christ that He alone is the only begotten son of God. These are the relevant verses.
The Greek used for Jesus is τοῦ μονογενοῦς υἱοῦ τοῦ θεοῦ let’s break it down. The word τοῦ is a variation of the article and is a genitive singular masculine which means (of the) showing possession. The following word μονογενοῦς is also an adjective genitive singular masculine word which means (only begotten). We then have υἱοῦ a noun genitive singular masculine and means (Son), lastly, we have θεοῦ which is in the genitive case and means God.
The two following verses also say Jesus is the only begotten Son of God, so where is Susie getting her information from? It’s certainly not from the Bible.
Seems like Susie either never read the Bible or she lied claiming that there were others called the only begotten Son of God. But we’ve just proven that her statement is untrue.
He’s not the Son of God?
What is this?!! Jesus (AS) himself made clear that he is not the son of God. For example, Matthew 5:48, ‘Be ye therefore perfect, even as your father which is in heaven is perfect.’ So God is everyone’s father. Luke 4:41, ‘And devils also came out of many, crying out, and saying, Thou art Christ the Son of God. And he rebuking them suffered not to speak for they knew that he was Christ.’ Luke 9:20-21, Jesus (AS) said to his disciples, ‘But whom say ye that I am? Peter answering said, “The Christ of God! And he straightly charged them, and commanded them to tell no man that thing.’ If Jesus (AS) was the son of God, then why should he tell his disciples not to tell anyone this if everyone is to know and learn and believe this? The only explanation is that they were wrong to call him this and he was telling them so.
Seems like Susie is going against the Qur’ān using Matthew 5:48 to say that God is everyone’s Father. According to her Qur’ān, it says Allah is not the father of anyone, we can find this in Surah 19:88-93; 112:3
Why did she say Allah is everyone’s father when the Qur’ān says he’s not father to anyone is it out of ignorance or deception? Also, Jesus said He came down from heaven and He’s the Son which speaks of the deity of Christ.
Susie makes the claim that Jesus was telling the disciples not to tell people He’s the Son of God, but that’s not true. Jesus was saying not to let people know because it was not His time to come as King even though He already was. Jesus knew He had to come as the Lamb of God who would give His life on the cross for the sins of the world, that was His main purpose for His first advent.
If the people knew He was the Christ (Messiah) they wouldn’t have crucified Him. And if He was not crucified then there would be no salvation for anyone. The second point is that if the disciples were wrong according to Susie, then Allah’s message was corrupted. Let’s not forget the Qur’ān says the followers of Jesus would be superior until the day of judgement. If the message of Jesus was corrupted then Allah failed in making the believers of Jesus superior until the day of judgement as 3:52-55 says.
In the words of Jesus Christ, He said that He’s the Son of God, read and laugh Abdoola. Why did she not read this verse, I thought she was a Christian for 16 years and she never read these verses?
Secondly the concept of the Trinity. Associating others with God, i.e. to believe in the Trinity has no foundation whatsoever in Islam. In Mark 12:29 Jesus (AS) himself said, The first of all Commandments is, Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord.’ 1 Corinthians 8:4 ‘there is none other God but one.’ The truth about this mater is that the word ‘Trinity’ is not Biblical at all. The Canon’s answer was as follows: ‘The New Testament writers did not create the doctrine of the Trinity. It is an attempt, admittedly human (how could it be otherwise?), to express in words something of the inexpressible.’ This just sums it up. A human attempt to describe something inexpressible because it doesn’t exist!! Perhaps the clearest indication we have that Jesus (AS) and God are not equal, and therefore not one and the same, comes from John 14:28 when Jesus (AS) is quoted as saying: “My Father is greater than I.” When someone referred to him as good master in Luke 18:19 Jesus (AS) responded, “Why callest thou me good? There is none good but one, that is God.” Furthermore, Jesus (AS) drew clear distinctions between himself and God when he is quoted to have said, John 8:42 “I proceeded forth and came from God, neither came I of myself but He sent me.’ Jesus (AS) gave clear evidence of his subordination to God, rather than his equality with God, when he said in Luke 22:42, “not my will but Thine be one” and in John 5:30, ” I seek not mine own will but the will of the Father which has sent me.” That Jesus (AS) would admit that he did not come into the world on his own initiative but was directed to do so, that he would acknowledge another being as greater than himself, that he would negate his own will in deference to affirming the will of another gives clear proof that Jesus (AS) is not the Supreme One and therefore Jesus (AS) is not equal to or even God.
It’s sad these arguments Brackenborough is spouting are the same weak arguments from dawah missionaries. Let us go through each to show how flawed Islam is.
Christians believe in 1 God (Deuteronomy 6:4) not 3 as Muslims set up Red Herrings and bring fallacious arguments, all Christians affirm belief in 1 God. All 3 Persons (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) are the 1 God as they are of the one essence of God. They are co-equal in Genesis the word Elohim (אֱלֹהִים) which is a plural word.
We’re in agreement that God created the world spoken of in the first verse of Genesis, in the second verse the Holy Spirit was also involved in the making of creation “the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters” (Genesis 1:2). Lastly in John 1:1 the Word (Jesus Christ) also created the world, the proof is in verse 3 “All things were made by him” that is all things were made by Jesus Christ. All 3 were involved in the creation of the world.
We substantiate that Jesus is the Word of Allah in the Qur’ān [4:171] “The Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, was but a messenger of Allah and His word”.
sūrat l-nisāa 4:171
There you go the Qur’ān says Jesus is the Word of Allah, Muhammad copied this from the Bible without knowing what the Word of God meant.
She mentioned 1 Corinthians 8:4, let’s point out her hypocrisy. This goes against the Muslim belief as they claim that Paul was a liar, saying he changed the teachings of Jesus Christ.[1] Yet here she’s taking one of Paul’s writings and saying she agrees with Paul that God is one. This is what Paul said, that is the height of hypocrisy.
Muslims say that Paul is the one who created Christianity and made up a lie about Jesus being God, but this Muslima is using Paul to claim what he’s teaching is correct.
John 14:28 “my Father is greater than I” Muslims love this quote but fail to understand it, Jesus Christ is God in the flesh, He became a real Man who was surrounded by people who were trying to kill Him. This verse is not speaking of the deity of Christ as being “lesser” than the Father.
The Father was in heaven, therefore, technically speaking the Father was in a greater position than the Son as He (the Father) is untouchable in heaven. While Jesus was on Earth as a real Man surrounded by enimies and subjected Himself to everything humans would be subjected to.
She then assumes in Luke 18:19 that Jesus Christ is saying He’s not good? Talk about not knowing the scriptures, if you read again Christ is asking the rich young ruler a question. In essence He’s asking the rich young ruler a rhetorical question “are you calling me God because only God is good”[2]
This verse actually goes against the Islamic claim and rejection of the deity of Christ, even though in their own Qur’ān Jesus can do things only Allah can do. First, Jesus is called pure in other words he’s Holy, in the Arberry translation he translates it “a boy most pure”.
In case there’s any doubt that this is what the verse says here’s the word for word syntax of this particular verse. Notice it says speaking of Isa “a son pure”.
So Jesus is pure and Holy, additionally he was able to speak from the cradle in the Qur’ān, no one else was able to accomplish this, the verse I’m referring to is Chapter 3 sūrat āl ʿim’rān. Not only is he pure, Holy and will speak from the cradle but he’s also called righteous.
Unfortunately, Muhammad is never spoken of in the same way as Jesus even in the Qur’ān. Let’s not forget that Jesus in the Qur’ān is the word of Allah, a spirit from Allah, Muslims cannot give an answer for 4:171 as Jesus is a spirit from Allah and his word. There’s also a verse that says Jesus heals the blind and lepers and is raising people from the dead.
That’s not all he also knows the unseen and can tell you what you hide in your house. This means Jesus has the same ability as Allah as in verse 2:33 Allah sees the unseen.
How is it Isa knows the unseen just like Allah, Isa can create life like Allah, he’s a word and spirit from Allah, and has the ability to speak from the cradle and is called Holy. These are all traits or attrubutes of God.
In John 8:42 Jesus Christ says He came from God, meaning He (Jesus) came from heaven, this corresponds to 4:171 in the Qur’ān which says Jesus is a spirit from Allah. Even though we don’t believe Isa is the true Jesus but Muhammad didn’t know what he was saying.
sūrat l-nisāa 4:171
The Qur’ān says Jesus is a spirit from Allah, and he is a word from Allah sent to Mary, some of the other Muslim translations read:
Sahih International “His word which He directed to Mary”
Pickthall “His word which He conveyed unto Mary”
Yusuf Ali “His Word, which He bestowed on Mary”
Shakir “His Word which He communicated to Marium”
Muhammad Sarwar “His Word, and a spirit from Him whom He conveyed to Mary.”
Mohsin Khan “His Word, which He bestowed on Maryam”
Arberry “His Word that He committed to Mary”
Here’s the verse in John where Christ says He came from God, providing evidence that Jesus Christ is eternal. No one else can make this same claim.
This ties in with another verses where the Lord Jesus said He came down from heaven. I wonder how Abdoools would respond to these words from Jesus Himself?
John 6:38 proves that Jesus preexisted His incarnation this is why He can say He existed before Abraham. It’s a hard pill for Muslims to swallow. She mentioned Luke 22:42 and misquoted it, the word is “done” not “one”. She assumes that because the Father sent the Son that this somehow discredits Jesus Christ being God.
Let’s think about this logically, if a father told his son to go to the store for him does this in anyway indicate that the son is no longer human because the father sent him? No! That would be insane and silly to claim such. This is what Muslims do, they think because Jesus was sent by the Father this means He’s not God. As we’ve just showed this has nothing to do with the deity of Christ.
She mentioned John 5:30 indicating that Christ sought the Father’s will. The will of the Father is not different from the will of the Son as they are the One God, they work in complete union together.
Therefore, it’s not strange for Christ to say He wants to do the will of the Father. Jesus Christ is not rebellious and never sinned and will do what He was sent to do. This verse corresponds with Luke 22:42.
The Bible is a collection of 66 Books
The Bible is a collection of 66 Books covering two thousand years of history written over nearly a thousand years. Inaccuracies and contradictions are likely to occur as it was not kept pure and the language changed. It could be said that the Bible is a book of ‘Chinese Whispers’ in that the message had been passed on, in some cases, from eyewitnesses to their associates. Original manuscripts can change as they are copied out. Existing original material is almost non-existent. No entire original documents have survived. The language is untranslatable as time has changed the language and so earlier languages of the Bible cannot fully be understood. All there are are copies of the Gospels written hundreds of years after the original writing.
It’s funny that Susie says the Bible has “inaccuracies and contradictions” yet her prophet said he believes in the Bible, which means Muhammad believes in the inaccuracies and contradictions according to her.
I would like her to answer when was the Bible corrupted, was it before Muhammad’s time or during his time? Her claim of corruption goes against Allah, as he said none can change his words, as the Torah and Injil according to the Qur’ān are Allah’s words.
Other verses which speak no one being able to change Allah’s words are surah 6:115, 10:64, which means Allah is incapable and not powerful enough to protect his books. Let’s not forget all of the contradictions found in the Qur’ān, I’ll link to some articles which lays this argument.
Just like every other Muslim Susie speaks of something she has no knowledge of, in order to change an ancient manuscript the process would be impossible as we would be able to detect where those “changes occurred”.
In order for this to happen they would have to gather all existing manuscripts in the entire world. Not an easy task as they were distributed to different churches (Antioch, Corinth, Ephesus, Thessalonica, Rome, Colosse) not to mention any other place not recorded.
We’re talking about thousands upon thousands of manuscripts. Then in order to change the text, a pumice stone would be used. Using a pumice stone would cause damage to the manuscript itself. Lastly, we would be able to make out what text was laid down before the pumice stone was used. It’s just not physically possible.[3]
The nail in the coffin is that the Qur’ān was the book not preserved, we have up to 40 different Arabic Qur’āns with different words and meanings. Plus there are missing verses in the Qur’ān like the breastfeeding verse eaten by a goat. Here’s the article speaking of the unpreserved Qur’ān.
Here’s the sum Susie Brackenborough has no clue what she’s talking about just like every Muslim. She has learned these nonsensical arguments and is parroting them. According to what we learned she was never a born-again Christian. While the word Trinity is not found in the bible the teaching is, but the word Tawhid is not found in the Qur’an.
The Lord Jesus is the ONLY Begotten Son of God and He is the Son of God. He’s called the Word of God found in both the Bible and Qur’an meaning He’s eternal. And the Bible has been preserved as we have plenty of manuscript evidence while the Qur’an has none! We’re calling Susie to come to Jesus Christ for salvation as He is the Living Word of God.
Footnotes
[1] Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: The first one to introduce the innovated view that ‘Ali was infallible and that he should have been the caliph on the basis of religious texts was the leader of these hypocrites, ‘Abdullah ibn Saba’, who was originally Jewish, then pretended to be Muslim and aimed to corrupt the Islamic religion as Paul had corrupted the Christian religion.
[2] Ironically, Jesus withholds the anticipated answer. Does Jesus sense that the questioner, like the Pharisee in the previous parable (18:11-12), is overconfident or disingenuous? “Why do you call me good?” responds Jesus. “No one is good — except God alone.” The Greek me (v. 19, “me”) in the rhetorical question is positioned emphatically at the front of the sentence, “Why do you call me good?” Plummer calls the ruler’s address of Jesus “extraordinary,” for in Judaism God or Torah are rightly called good, but not rabbis. Jesus does not affirm his goodness but implies that his goodness is the goodness of God, the source of all goodness, working in him: “The Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees the Father doing” (John 5:19). Given Jesus’ servant posture and reticence regarding his messianic status, he directs the ruler unambiguously to God. “No one is good — except God alone” could also be translated “except the one God,” thus directing the ruler to the Shema (Deut 6:4).

[3] To begin, we must emphasize that out of these 150,000 variants, 99 percent hold virtually no significance whatsoever. Many of these variants simply involve a missing letter in a word; some involve reversing the order of two words (such as “Christ Jesus” instead of “Jesus Christ”); some may involve the absence of one or more insignificant words. Really, when all the facts are put on the table, only about 50 of the variants have any real significance– and even then, no doctrine of the Christian faith or any moral commandment is effected by them. For more than ninety-nine percent of the cases the original text can be reconstructed to a practical certainty. Ron Rhodes (2022). Manuscript Evidence for the Bible’s Reliability.

The purpose of this blog is to (1) reach out to Muslims who are stuck in the cult of Islam, to show them that only through Jesus Christ can they have salvation. As Jesus Himself said there’s no other way to heaven except through Himself (John 14:6). And (2) to inform Christians on how to respond to the Muslim claims against Christianity as there are unfortunately many Christians who are ignorant of the teachings of Islam.
This video shows such an intercation between a Christian woman and the Abdoools of Madinah Van who had to gang up on a woman. But they don’t dare to debate a Christian who has knowledge of what their Qur’an teaches. You can view the weak attempt from Medinah Van here and see how we destroy their silly arguments against the Bible.
Muslims typically claim that Jesus was only sent to Israel, this is not true. If they knew the context of scripture they wouldn’t make this mistake. Christ was sent to Israel first and then the Gentiles. He came to bring salvation to the entire world not only Israel, the following verses prove this point.
The Gospel of John chapter 3 verse 15 says that anyone (whosoever) believes in Jesus Christ will have eternal life. If language is how we are to communicate then the word whosoever (πᾶς) means exactly what it means anyone regardless if they are a Jew or Gentile.
πᾶς (pas)
If we parsed πᾶς so that we know how the word functions in John 3:15 we’d get:
After parsing the word we know the subject (Nominative) is personal in Number (Singular) meaning anyone willing to trust in Christ can come to Him for salvation. It’s personal, between you and your Creator.
The following verse 1 John 4:9 explains that God sent the Lord Jesus into the world (κόσμον) for us that we would live through Christ. The world doesn’t encompass the Jews only, in fact, the Jews are a very small minority when compared to all the other nations in the world.
Jesus came for all mankind including Muslims who are willing to place their faith in the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Only those who do so will make it to heaven, the others who deceive and reject the salvation Jesus offers will find themselves in grave trouble on the day of judgement. As they will face Jesus as their judge, not their Saviour.
We then have the teachings of Paul in which the Abdoool on the video claimed apostle Paul taught contrary to Jesus Christ. Here we have in 2 Corinthians 5:19 Paul said Christ was reconciling the world to Himself. This is in line with the 2 verses above.
To reconcile (καταλλάσσων) is to bring onto Himself, and that’s what Christ did at the cross of Calvary, He was atoning for the sins of the world. That’s the wonderful message that He gave Himself for the sins of the world (1 John 2:2).
Once again Paul who taught the same as the Messiah said Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners (ἁμαρτωλοὺς). Muslims are sinners, and so is Muhammad, unfortunately their prophet is suffering in hell for rejecting the salvation only Jesus can provide.
The Lord Jesus Christ was the one who brought not “a” truth but the Truth, He is that truth! In John 14:6 Christ authoritatively declared this to those who were around.
It’s wonderful that we have the New Testament in the original language and if you’re capable of reading Greek would know that the word ἡ ἀλήθεια has the article which means The Truth. If Jesus Christ is the source of all truth then this would be a claim of deity as only God is absolute truth. We find in the Qur’an that Allah is called the truth, this is not looking good for the Muslims.
If we take the words of Jesus Christ with what the Qur’an is saying this means Jesus claimed to be Allah, but we already know that Allah of the Qur’an doesn’t exist. If we take a look at the Arabic text and review the nouns used in this verse we’d see.
Arabic Syntax and morphology
The accusative word l-laha is an accusative noun pointing to Allah and the nominative masculine word l-ḥaqu is the subject of the verse. The same as in John 14:6 Jesus is the subject of the verse ὁ Ἰησοῦς (nominative masculine). What in the world are the mutah boys of Dawah Van going to do with this one?
Clearly, the Qur’an says objectively states God is the truth and Jesus in the Bible (John 14:6) which was written hundreds of years before the Qur’an says Jesus Christ is The Truth. This destroys the Islamic claim in which Muslims reject Jesus as God.
The Comforter is Muhammad?
“If I don’t go the comforter will not come and when the comforter comes He’ll mention of me He’ll tell you many things to come and we believe that comforter is prophet Muhammad”
This claim from Abdoools is beyond silly when they claim Muhammad is the comforter they are essentially saying Muhammad is their god. In the same chapter in which Christ says He’s The Truth an attribute only God possesses. Now He tells us who the Comforter, the Holy Spirit is.
Notice in the same verse Christ identifies who the Comforter is saying He’s the Holy Ghost who the Father will send in the name of Jesus Christ (“my name”). Do Muslims believe Muhammad came in the name of Jesus Christ? No they do not, but they do believe Allah sent him (John 14:6). Additionally, in Islam Muslims claim the “holy spirit” is Jibril.
If the Comforter is another name for the Holy Spirit how can Muhammad be the comforter? Let’s prove this nonsense and get them busted. According to one of their trusted websites, Islamqa here’s what they say about Muhammad being supposedly found in the Bible.
These two verses [1] indicate that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) is mentioned in the Torah and the Gospel (the Bible), no matter how much the Jews and Christians claim that he is not, for the word of Allaah is the best and most truthful of words.
They then quoted a few verses from the Bible for the proof of Muhammad’s existence in the Bible one of those being the Gospel of John 16:6-8, 12-13. These same verses refute the claim of Muhammad being the comforter as the comforter is sent by Jesus Christ notice the words “I will send him unto you”.
But in Islam Muhammad is sent by Allah, how can Abdoool reconcile this other than admitting Jesus Christ is Allah. They also claim Muhammad is “the Spirit of truth” the problem is the Spirit of truth is going to glorify Jesus. Again notice the words “He shall glorify me” in verse 14 this is Jesus speaking.
This is not looking good for the guys at Dawah Van, in the video, the Abdoool said Jesus never called Himself the Son of God. The term Son of God was mostly used by others declaring that Christ is the Son of God, and Jesus Christ never rejected this He always accepted this title. Here we have Christ referring to Himself as the Son of God in John 5:24-26.
The Lord Jesus is the one speaking in this passage, notice the personal pronouns “I”, and “my”, went as far to say those who are dead would hear Jesus’ voice and come out of the graves. This can only mean that Christ by the power of His word/speech can bring people back from the dead. This is a claim of deity as there is no one else who can do this.
Again Jesus in speaking to the blind man, He gave him sight mentioned if the blind name believed on Christ as the Son of God. This was after the Pharisees banned the no longer blind man from worshipping in the temple.
We easily demolish Muslim arguments here on this blog, they don’t stand a chance against God’s true word the Bible. Here’s the nail in the coffin of the Dawah Van mutah boys, in John 10:36 there’s a great discourse between the religious rulers and Jesus Christ.
In John 10:30 Jesus made this statement which caused the Jews to have a meltdown saying “I and my Father are one.” The reaction from the Jews says it all as they picked up stones to kill Jesus as they knew He was claiming equality with God the Father, that’s why they said He’s making Himself God.[2]
Jesus said that His anything the Father can do Jesus Christ can do, in plain terms anything God can do Jesus can do because He’s God. Notice the Jews accused Christ of blasphemy and Jesus said how can that be because He (Jesus) said He’s the Son of God. So why are Dawah Abdoools lying when they said Jesus never said He’s the Son of God? That’s because Islam teaches you can lie.
Conclusion
Here we back up our claims with proof but if you notice as you watch their video they jump over important points. They love to quote John 17:3 which actually proves once again Jesus is God because this verse is saying that Jesus along with the Father is the one true God. It’s a conjunction bringing the two objects of the verse together (ἀληθινὸν θεὸνκαὶ ὃν ἀπέστειλας Ἰησοῦν Χριστόν). I’ve bolded the καὶ which is the conjunctive word and both θεὸν and Ἰησοῦν Χριστόν are in the accusative singular.
[2] (10:31-9) The evangelist continues to stress that Jesus is God’s Son. w. 31-3, first in v. 33 the Jews indicate blasphemy as the reason why they want to stone Jesus (cf. Lev 24:16). As in 8:59 it is an attempt to kill him without official trial. In the synoptic tradition Jesus is accused of blasphemy when he forgives sins (Mk 2:5-7 Par), and when he speaks of the coming Son of Man seated at the right hand of the Power (Mk 14:62— 4 par.). Probably all propositions that questioned God’s uniqueness were considered as blasphemy in Jesus’ time (cf. 5:18). Ironically the Jews speak the truth: for the evangelist Jesus is in a certain sense ‘God’. ‘Good’ is used in 2:10 of the wine, and in 10:11,14 in reference to the shepherd. The good shepherd is sent by the Father, and therefore his work exhibits the Father’s goodness (cf. v. 25). w. 34-6, Jesus uses an argument afortiori: if the Scripture refers to those who received the word of God as ‘gods’, the one whom God has sanctified cannot blaspheme when he says that he is God’s Son. Barton, J., & Muddiman, J. (Eds.). (2013). The oxford bible commentary. Oxford University Press, Incorporated.
One of the most ridiculous arguments from Muslims is the claim that the authors are “unknown”, this couldn’t be farther from the truth. There are liberals who claim the writers of the Bible are unknown and Muslims and other enemies of the Gospel use this to discredit the Bible.
Unknown Authors?
First let’s prove how silly this argument is, from the Muslim’s perspective their own sources say the Torah and Injil are from Allah. That would make Allah the author of the Torah and Injil which makes up the Bible, of course, we don’t believe Allah sent us the Bible as we don’t believe he exists. But for Muslims, they’re against Allah saying those books have unknown authors. Wouldn’t the author be Allah?
To answer the Abdool we do know who wrote the books of the Bible, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John wrote the Gospels, the text of the Bible attests to this fact. Paul wrote Romans, Ephesians and others. Peter wrote 1st and 2nd Peter, James and Jude. We also have the five books of Moses Genesis, Exodus, Numbers, Leviticus and Deuteronomy. David wrote the Psalms as well as a few others. We actually have names of authors who wrote these books.
If we ask Muslims who wrote the Qur’an, they say, Allah, so Allah came into his creation and wrote a book called Qur’an? We’re told that Allah cannot enter his creation, therefore, it’s not logical to claim Allah wrote the Qur’an. The question remains who wrote the Qur’an we need names but of course, they cannot provide any.
Mark 7:27
Another false claim is that Jesus in Mark 7:27 was somehow disrespecting a woman, just as this Abdool stated in his comment. Let’s get him busted to prove Muslims don’t know anything about the Bible, they don’t even know their own book. In the Gospel of Mark Jesus was approached by a woman Syrophenician by nation, she asked Jesus to cast out devils from her daughter.
This Muslim tried to focus on Jesus saying “dog” to this woman in verse 27, let’s bust this Abdool. This is an English translation, in Greek, the word used by Jesus was not one of insult, in reality, it was a word of endearment.
The word used in the text is κυναρίοις and the root word is κυνάριον (kynarion), this is a neuter noun. And the immediate context of the word is generated puppy or little dog. Nowhere in this verse is Jesus Christ insulting this lady as this Abdoool would like for us to believe.
This was an endearing term used by Christ toward the Syrophenician woman. The reason and context of the word used here are to contrast the relationship between the Jews and the Gentiles. The Jews were the first to receive the grace and revelation from God, their Messiah was there in their midst and they failed to realise Him.
Then we have a Gentile woman who exercised faith in the Lord Jesus asking Him to heal her daughter from demonic possession. The Gentiles were to receive the message of salvation after the message was relayed to the Jews. This is why the bread and table are mentioned, the dog receives food from the table after those who are at the table eat.[1]
This lines up with what Paul the apostle wrote in the book of Romans, how the Jews were given the message and God then had the message brought to the Gentiles. We can find this in Romans chapter 1 verse 18.
Mark 7:26-30 is a picture of salvation for all who trust in Jesus Christ. But where’s the compassion for women in Islam? Unlike Muhammad who said the majority of women will be in hell fire.
Here we have Muhammad saying the majority of women will be in hell, which means all the Muslima will end up in hell-fire according to their prophet. What’s the point in following Islam if you’ll end up in hell anyway?[2]
To further prove the point that women have no place in Islam we’ll include a quote from Shaykh Assim Al Hakeem who has his show Ask Zad.
“The concept of equality is also something that we have a lot of the women and the men thinking that this is a prime concept in Islam, women and men are equal. This is totally unIslamic, this is totally wrong it’s not even logical how can they be equal? In Islam in the Qur’an Allah says clearly and a male is not similar to a female, they’re different.” — Ask Zad
As you see this is how Muslims who don’t even know their own religion try to twist the scriptures of the Bible when they speak with Christians. All one has to do is know the surrounding context of the verse and get them busted every time. Jesus Christ never insulted the Gentiles but Muhammad indeed said most women will be in hell. I wonder how Muslimas feel about that?

[1] Jesus’ reply and the woman’s repartee each contain a metaphor. The first is the metaphor of the children and the little dogs. That the girl is likened to a little dog— the similarity in sound between the two words may have led to the comparison— has everything to do with the fact that the episode is about the relation between Jews and Gentiles, and that dogs, particularly stray dogs, are despised and regarded as unclean. 106 Along with the pig, the dog is symbolic of the Gentile, who is often referred to as living like a dog. 107 To call up that image in the presence of a Gentile woman is unfriendly, even crude, but the use of the diminutive relativizes this. These little dogs are not stray or watch dogs but well cared for pets that share the life of the family. The suggested image is that of a well-to-do family, as is confirmed by the circumstance that meals are not served on a floor mat but on a real table, under which the little dogs can find a spot for themselves. 108 The ‘children-little dogs’ relation is a metaphor for the relation between Jews— the children of Israel— and Gentiles. The second metaphor is that of the bread and the crumbs. With this the story remains in the sphere of food and eating that has been so prominent in the two preceding episodes, and also remotely recalls the thematics of the mass meal related in 6.35-44. The metaphor of the bread and the crumbs is an equivalent of the (in comparison with the metaphor, material) loaves and leftovers from that meal. 109 In this sharp verbal exchange Jesus employs this metaphor in an attempt to shrug the woman’s request off with a joke. The Jews come first (πρῶτον). Roman readers who remember what Paul wrote to them will recall Rom. 1.16 in which he says of his ‘gospel’ that it is a power for every one who has faith, ‘to the Jew first and also to the Greek’, words that are repeated twice in the same letter (2.9 and 10). The time of the Gentiles has not yet come. Jesus still has too much to do in Galilee to attend to them. The woman accepts Jesus’ metaphor but adds one of her own, saying that the little dogs are content with the crumbs from the children’s table. What she asks of Jesus— to free her daughter from her demonic obsessions— is so little that the Jews need not miss anything. Jesus recognizes the sharpness and aptness of her retort and gives in.

[2] “The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) went out to the musalla (prayer place) on the day of Eid al-Adha or Eid al-Fitr. He passed by the women and said, ‘O women! Give charity, for I have seen that you form the majority of the people of Hell.’ They asked, ‘Why is that, O Messenger of Allah?’ He replied, ‘You curse frequently and are ungrateful to your husbands. I have not seen anyone more deficient in intelligence and religious commitment than you. A cautious sensible man could be led astray by some of you.’ The women asked, ‘O Messenger of Allah, what is deficient in our intelligence and religious commitment?’ He said, ‘Is not the testimony of two women equal to the testimony of one man?’ They said, ‘Yes.’ He said, ‘This is the deficiency in her intelligence. Is it not true that a woman can neither pray nor fast during her menses?’ The women said, ‘Yes.’ He said, ‘This is the deficiency in her religious commitment.’” Shaykh Muhammad Saalih al-Munajjid (2022, June 10).

The staunch stance in Islam is that Allah “cannot” be a man. Time and time again Muslims will take verses out of context from the Bible saying “God is not a man” they partially quote Numbers 23:19. If you read the proceeding and following verses surrounding that verse you’ll have a clear understanding of the context.
Just within the one verse alone we can see that the text is saying God is not like us in the sense that we as humans do lie, God doesn’t lie. We as fallible humans need to repent, the same is not true of God as He is perfect. The second half of the verse says if God says He will do something will he not do it or make it come to past? It’s a rhetorical question and the answer is an emphatic yes!
But we have to bust the abdools in their lies let’s view the surrounding context of the immediate verses. The background of this chapter is The Prophecies of Balaam, Balak the king of Moab called for Balaam to come and curse the children of Israel. Instead of cursing them Balaam blessed them each time and told Balak he must say only that which the LORD has given him.[1] Balaam said to Balak:
How shall I curse, whom God hath not cursed? or how shall I defy, [whom] the LORD hath not defied? … And he answered and said, Must I not take heed to speak that which the LORD hath put in my mouth?
After reading the context we can see that this verse has nothing to do with God not becoming a man. Context is the dagger in the heart of Islam, because the Qur’an is a distorted book which has no context Muslims don’t know how to interpret scripture.
If the Qur’an is the ultimate source for Muslims then they are denying what the Qur’an says. It’s clear from this verse that “Allah is able to do all things” But he’s not able to become a man Muslims say which contradicts the Qur’an. That means he cannot do all things.
Here’s one statement from islamreligion.com in which they said:
The claim that God became man is also an absurdity. It is not befitting of God to take on human characteristics because it means that the Creator has become His creation. However, the creation is a product of the creative act of the Creator. If the Creator became His creation, it would mean that the Creator created Himself, which is an obvious absurdity. To be created, He would first have to not exist, and, if He did not exist, how could He then create? Furthermore, if He were created, it would mean that He had a beginning, which also contradicts His being eternal. By definition creation is in need of a creator. For created beings to exist they must have a creator to bring them into existence. God cannot need a creator because God is the Creator. Thus, there is an obvious contradiction in terms. The claim that God became His creation implies that He would need a creator, which is a ludicrous concept. It contradicts the fundamental concept of God being uncreated, needing no creator and being the Creator.
The moment they said God cannot do something proves they believe in a “god” who cannot do all things. That’s a major conundrum they’ve created for themselves. The Christian argument is that Almighty Yahweh can and did become a Man that’s not out of His abilities. Jesus Christ is Eternal and existed before He came into the world through Mary, we have many scriptures which prove this but one will suffice. Jesus in John 8 was debating the Jews and told them that Abraham rejoice to see His (Jesus‘) day.
They replied saying Jesus was not even 50 and it wouldn’t be possible for Abraham to have known Christ. And the Lord Jesus rocks them by saying “ BeforeAbrahamwas, I am”, they knew He claimed to be God, as their mind went back to when Moses spoke to God from the burning bush. The LORD said I AM THAT I AM (Exodus 3:14)
This is without a doubt one of the most powerful passages which proves the divinity of the Lord Jesus Christ and Muslims cannot contend with it.
Jibril is more powerful than Allah and can become a man
Let’s not forget Muslims say Allah cannot become a man for them they think God taking on human form means God would become “weak”. Here’s a statement from an Abdoool site called Calling Christians.
If God is all powerful and man is not all powerful, can God’s nature of being all powerful, change to becoming not all powerful? How can an all powerful God become less powerful?
Christians don’t believe God “change to becoming not all powerful”, we believe that God took upon Himself more specifically the Son of God took on human nature. But He did not lose His diety when He became a man as Jesus Christ said He would raise Himself from the dead.
If Jesus being God and took on human flesh made Him “weak” according to Muslims, then how is it He’s able to raise Himself from the dead. Does that sound like weakness? Allah cannot even do what Jesus Christ can yet they say such foolishness.
In the Qur’an Jibril has the ability to become a man when he came to Mary (Maryam), this is recorded in Surah Maryam.
So now what are Muslims going to say, Jibril is capable of becoming a man but Allah doesn’t have the ability to become a man. Therefore, if Muslims still want to say that Allah cannot become human logic would dictate that Jibril is more powerful than Allah.
Lastly, Muhammad described Allah as a man in the Hadith when he compared the Dajjal with Allah. Muhammad is busted because the Dajjal is a man, yet he says that it’s possible for the Muslims to be confused thinking the Dajjal is Allah.
Notice Muhammad is telling the Muslims the Dajjal is short, hen-toed, woolly haired and has one eye describing human characteristics. The Muhammad says if they are confused, now let’s stop here why would they be confused if Allah is not a human? Then Muhammad tells them the only difference between the Dajjal (a man) and Allah is that Allah is not one-eyed.
Conclusion
What have we learned, well Numbers 23:19 has nothing to do with God becoming a man the real context is that God doesn’t lie or neither does He need to repent of sins like we do. Allah cannot become human according to Abdoools who contradict 2:20 which says Allah can become a man. Jibril has the ability to become a man while Allah cannot as taught in Islam. And finally Muhammad described Allah with human qualities comparing him to the Dajjal.

[1] God twice meets Balaam and puts a word in his mouth and commands him to return and speak that word (23:5,16). God’s insistence on what he must say recognizes that Balaam does have options. It becomes increasingly clear, even to Balak (23:17), that God reveals through the word, not divination. In the third instance, the spirit of God comes upon him (see 11:17, 2 5~6) without consultation after he ‘sets his face’ and ‘sees’ Israel’s situation (24:2). Balaam speaks God’s blessings on Israel rather than curses. The blessings become less descriptive, more future oriented, and more properly blessings as one moves through the four oracles. Even more, those who curse Israel will themselves be cursed, while those who bless will be blessed (24:9). Prominent throughout is the language of seeing; the one who did not see the purposes of God (22:22-30) now does see them (23:9, 21, 23— 4; 24:3— 4,15— 17). Indeed, the clarity of his seeing increases over the course of the oracles; the most expansive claims are the ‘knowledge’ of 24:16 and the seeing into the future of 24:17. Falling down but alert (24:4,16) may refer to a qualified ecstatic reception of God’s word. Balaam ‘sees’ Israel’s history and God’s promises, moving from the past through the present to a more and more specific future: election from among the nations (23:9); promise (and fulfilment) of many descendants, like the dust of the earth (23:10; see Gen 13:16, 28:14), and blessing (24:9, cf. GEN 12:3); exodus (23:22; 24:8); God’s presence among them and his care in the wilderness (23:21; cf. 24:5-6). He anticipates a successful conquest, as both Israel and God are imaged as lions (22:23— 4; 24:7~9) the rise of the monarchy and specific conquests relating thereto (24:7,17-19). The overall scene for Balaam is a blessed people: numerous, confident, flourishing, powerful, and its king is God. In Balaam’s words (23:io):’let my end be like his!’
The Qur’ān rejects anyone called sons of God, in this context we’re not speaking of biologically being God’s children. But the God of the Bible wants a relationship with His creation, the below verses in the Qur’ān say men and women can only be slaves of Allah. *Note we are distinguishing between Yahweh the true God and Allah the false god of Islam.
Qur’ān says Jews and Christians are not the sons of Allah
Here in [5:18] the Qur’ān is trying to prove that Jews and the Christians are not “sons” of Allah (take notice that we don’t believe in Allah, we believe in Yahweh), this gives the idea that Jews and Christians are claiming to be the literally children of God. It’s a strawman argument as we don’t believe we are “biological” children of God. Those who are saved are adopted into the family of God (Romans 9:4).
“”We are the children of Allah and His beloved.” Say, “Then why does He punish you for your sins?” Rather, you are human beings from among those He has created. …”
The Qur’ān tries to insinuate that Allah and Yahweh are the same but they are not,[1] it goes so far as to say that the only relationship we have with God is as a slave and nothing more.
In verses [19:88-93] there’s a double message (1) it’s an attack on the Son of God Jesus Christ and His divinity as well as (2) a renouncement of anyone being called a child of God and all we are is slaves.
And they say, “The Most Merciful has taken [for Himself] a son.” You have done an atrocious thing. … That they attribute to the Most Merciful a son. And it is not appropriate for the Most Merciful that He should take a son. … that he comes to the Most Merciful as a servant.
Let’s bust their false prophet, Muhammad said he believes in the Torah, and the Qur’ān confirms the previous scriptures in the Torah and Injil [sūrat l-ṣāfāt 37:37].
This is an apparent contradiction of the Torah and Injil as we will soon see.
Torah says Israelites are the sons of God
The Qur’ān claims it confirms the previous scriptures which came before it according to [sūrat fāṭir 35:31], now here’s where Muslims will claim the original Torah and Injil have been lost. The burden of proof is on them to provide evidence for this claim. The Qur’ān came on the scene way later than the Torah and Injil and we have manuscripts which date back to the 2nd century.
According to Deuteronomy 14:1 God calls the Israelites children of God “Ye [are] the children of the LORD your God: …” As mentioned before this doesn’t mean literal biological children of God. In the Old Testament, this is referring to the nation Israel’s relationship with God who has chosen them as a nation separate from the other surrounding nations.
Deuteronomy 32:6 Tells us that the LORD is as a Father to the children of Israel. “Do ye thus requite the LORD, O foolish people and unwise? [is] not he thy father [that] hath bought thee? …”
Muslims love quoting Matthew 5:17-18 about Christ not changing the Law when they engage with Christians. But they are not aware that Isa who is supposedly Jesus did change the law according to Surah Ali ‘Imran 3:50. “to make lawful for you some of what was forbidden to you.”
This is wonderful proof showing that Isa cannot be Jesus Christ, as the two are polar opposites.
In the Bible husband cannot go back to his wife after divorce, in Islam husband can go back to his wife
In the Torah, God is against a man who has divorced his wife, and if she marries another man is not allowed to go back to her previous husband as God sees that as an abomination. In other words, is vile in the eyes of God as that woman would have had intercourse with the second man and would be considered defiled.
The Qur’ān on the other hand contradicts this as Allah is completely fine with the wife returning to her former husband. It’s clear Yahweh and Allah are not the same God as Muslims would like for us to believe.
When you compare the two texts it’s abundantly clear that Christianity and Islam do not worship the same God. Also, Jesus Christ is not Isa as they had contradictory actions, one didn’t change the Law while the other did. The only way someone would think they are the same is if they stuck their head in the sand and deliberately did not want to compare the two.
To remain ignorant is the worst thing a person can do to themself. Once you have an understanding of what the Bible and Qur’ān teach you just will not make the mistake and continue to claim they are the same.

[1] When we look at Yahweh, however, who is the God of the Bible, we see a different kind of deity. First of all, the name “Yahweh” comes from the time that God appeared to Moses in the burning bush. At that time God told Moses to call him “I am that I am,” or in Hebrew, “Yahweh.” It is significant that Jesus referred to himself as the “I am” in John 8:58. The Jews realized that Jesus was referring to himself as God and took up stones to stone him for what they believed was blasphemy. This link between Jesus in the New Testament and the burning bush in the Old Testament demonstrates the unity of the one God manifested to both the Jews and the Christians. This cannot be said of the Muslim God because Muslims reject the deity of Jesus and therefore reject much of what the New Testament says about Jesus. We also find that the Bible portrays Yahweh in contrast to Allah. For example, Allah is considered to be too holy to have personal relationships with man, but Yahweh is often described as a loving God interested in our personal struggles. Yahweh is also depicted as unchanging and One who assures the salvation of the faithful. Finally, because there is unity in the Trinity with the one God also being three persons, God can be described as the Father of Jesus. Dr. Daniel Janosik. Is Allah of Islam the same as Yahweh of Christianity? Retrieved from https://www.ciu.edu/allah-islam-same-yahweh-christianity

All the true prophets of God would never contradict themselves, they are bound to tell the truth as they speak on behalf of the Creator of the universe. If you examine the lives of all the prophets it’s obvious that they stand for virtue and integrity, while none of them were perfect they never taught anything sinful.
Regarding Muhammad, Islam’s so-called prophet we see that he taught sinful practices. Some of them are fornication, covetousness, hatred and lying. In this article, we’ll view two contradictory sayings of Muhammad.
Please note that both Hadith’s are graded as Sahih, therefore, they are both authentic and accepted. In Sahih Muslim 2607c Abdullah reports that Muhammad said “It is obligatory for you to tell the truth” this means you don’t have a choice it’s an obligation.
The root word for Obligatory would be Obligation, the definition according to Websters-Dictionary is “the action of obligating oneself to a course of action (as by a promise or vow)”[1]
Muhammad says Muslims are bound to their vow, they are not to tell any lies as remaining truthful leads to paradise. If one should choose to lie they would lead them to obscenity[2] which then leads to hell-fire. This person is counted as a liar in the eyes of Allah. The above hadith might seem somewhat noble the problem is that Muhammad contradicts himself in the following hadith.
This hadith from Jami at-Tirmidhi says that what Muhammad taught was halal (permissible) to lie to your wife, during war and to other people in order to bring peace. This cannot be the teachings of a prophet of God. If this is the case then Muhammad according to his own words in Sahih Muslim 2607c is in hell-fire. It’s not hard to see that he contradicts himself constantly and teaches sinful practices.
According to the Bible, Muhammad is in hell, in the book of Revelation God says all liars will have their part in the lake of fire.[3]
Conclusion
Our duty is to speak the truth, we love Muslims and want them to know the truth of what Islam teaches. We want them to have salvation by coming to Jesus Christ for eternal life by trusting in His death, burial and Resurrection. Only the Son of God can wash you clean of your sins, Muhammad cannot do anything for you. He was a sinful man and a liar, but Jesus Christ never lied and said if you believe in Him you will have everlasting life because He is the Resurrection and the Life[4] trust in Christ if you want to be saved.
[3] Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation+21%3A8&version=KJV
Muslims pride themselves in believing that they worship 1 god called Allah, if this is true then is it possible that Allah converted to Islam? How can a god convert to Islam, if Allah converted to Islam this means there’s another Allah greater than him.
Let me direct you to their most trusted source the Qur’ān, since Muslims reject the Bible we don’t need to use the Bible to prove Islam is false because their own beliefs are full of contradictions. In Ali ‘Imran Allah took his Shahada, it reads:
[3:18] Allah bears witness that La ilaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), …
How is Allah reverting to Islam unless there’s another Allah, perhaps our Muslim friends will be willing to explain how a god is becoming a Muslim?
This is why Allah doesn’t know if Allah will forgive, certainly if Allah is god he would know if he’s going to forgive someone or not, but Allah is saying he’s not sure (“it may be”).
If Allah is god then he should say without question if he will pardon them or not, but here in Surah 4:99 Allah is unsure and says “it may be” he’s not sure that he will pardon them? And who is Allah if this is Allah speaking in Qur’ān, is he talking about another Allah just as he said there are other creators [Surah 23:12-14].
Again Allah doesn’t know if Allah (another god) will forgive, this is the only way to make sense of the Qur’ān. If the Qur’ān is Allah’s literal word then he’s (Allah) is the one doing the talking in Qur’ān. Then Allah would be speaking to himself, why can’t Allah speak plainly and say “I will forgive you”?
Conclusion
The Qur’ān is a book from a god who doesn’t know if you can be forgiven because another Allah is the one who “May forgive”? This is confusing and cannot be a book from God. How is it their god took Shahada and converted to Islam as found in 3:18? These are the question we are asking Muslims to explain as their religion makes no sense.
We appeal to Muslims to search out these truths for themselves, if they’re not afraid of the truth then these theological problems should be addressed. Christians have since the beginning been upfront in our beliefs, they have been tried and tested and remain firm because they are founded upon the solid and sure Rock which is Jesus Christ Himself.
The LORD [is] my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, [and] my high tower.
Muhammadian are obsessed with the Trinity just like their prophet who was obsessed with the number 3, they make all sorts of outlandish remarks challenging Christians on the belief. But logic dictates that if you want to refute Christians on the Trinity then they must know what Christians believe when it comes to the Trinity. That’s fair right?
In this article, we’ll provide evidence that Allah has no idea what Christians believe about the Trinity. We’re going to expose the poo poo of Muhammad and Allah.
All Muslims believe the name Allah is the personal name for their god. Let’s look at how the Qur’ān describes the Trinity and see if Allah knows best? First, let’s begin with the Christian definition of the Trinity.
Contrary to what Muslims would claim, Christians believe in One God[1] we are bound to what the scriptures say about who God is. Christianity is a monotheistic faith that sprang forth from Judaism as Jesus and the first Christians His disciples were all Jews.
Christians believe: There is one God, who exists as three co-equal, co-eternal persons, namely the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. God is sovereign and self-existent and is omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient, immutable, holy, righteous and loving. (Deut 6:4, John 1:1, Matt 28:19, 1 Cor 12:4-6, 2 Cor 13:14, Eph 1:11, 1 John 1:5, 4:16).[2]
Qur’ān Ezra is the son of God?
Let’s compare what the Qur’ān says about the Trinity and see if it matches the definition above? In Surah At-Tawbah 9:30 Allah says “The Jews say, ‘Ezra is the Son of God”. Is this correct did the Jews ever believe Ezra (Uzair) was the son of Allah?
Not one Jew believes this, there’s no source outside of the Qur’ān that corroborates ayat 9:30 a challenge to Muslims, provide a source outside of the Qur’ān proving The Jews say, ‘Ezra is the Son of God’; the Christians say, ‘The Messiah is the Son of God.’ …
Tovia Singer the Abdools favourite Rabbi said:
“Well it’s an interesting question that comes from the Qur’ān it’s chapter 9 it’s the chapter called repentance or it’s and it’s the chapter 9 Surah 9 verse 30 and there it says that the Jews say that Ezra is the son of God the Christians say that Allah the Christians say that the Messiah is the son of God they speak with their mouths but they really what they have essentially is something they received from the past and the speaking absolutely nonsense and essentially and Allah is against them because of what they’re saying essentially is a perversion something essentially like that and it was so that was very intriguing about this passage in the Qur’ān is that of course everybody who reads it is going wait I don’t know any Jew who believe that Ezra a great prophet and incidentally is considered a prophet in Islam as well I don’t know any Jew who believes that Ezra was the son of God.”
Allah is wrong and, therefore, the Qur’ān is wrong also unless there’s a source outside of the Qur’ān that agrees but there are none. Of course, Tovia Singer tries to side with the Muslims saying it was one heretical man because he’s a puppet. If we turn to the same commentators Tovia mentioned we see that they are referring to the Jews as a whole and are contrasting that to what Christians believe about Christ.
The Jews say Ezra is the son of God; and the Christians say The Messiah Jesus is the son of God. That is the utterance of their mouths for which they have no support nay imitating the utterances of those who disbelieved before them from among their forefathers mimicking them. God assail curse them! How they are deviated! turned away from the truth despite the proofs having been established.
Muslims need to provide evidence for their claim, bring any Jew who believes Ezra is the son of God in the same sense Jesus is the Son of God. If you read the verse carefully there’s a slew of language speaking in the plural sense ie Jews, Christians, their mouths etc.[3]
Qur’ān Jesus and Mary are God’s?
In Surah Al-Ma’idah 5:116 Allah will ask Isa (“Jesus”) if he told people to take himself and his mother as deities. This is NOT what Christians believe that both Jesus and Mary are God’s! Bear in mind the Christian definition of the Trinity provided above doesn’t mention Mary at all.
We believe in one God (Deut 6:4) who exists as three co-equal, co-eternal persons, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Why doesn’t Allah know this if he is god, I thought Allah was supposed to know best?
Yet the Qur’ān accuses Christians of worshipping Mary as god? Again Muslims have zero sources other than the Qur’ān to substantiate this erroneous claim. There’s not a single Christian who believes Mary is a god. Perhaps our Muslim friends would point to Catholics, and while there are practices Christians and Catholics disagree on, they do not worship Mary as a god.
[5:116] … Allah saith: O Jesus, son of Mary! Didst thou say unto mankind: Take me and my mother for two gods beside Allah? … How can Allah get this wrong if he’s god? Their god cannot even get the Trinity right we challenge the Abdools to show us references that Christians worship Mary as god. Qur’ān has to be the dumbest book ever as Allah can’t get the Trinity correct, their own scholars affirm this.[4]
Allah again tries to prove that Christians somehow took Jesus and his mother as gods In Surah Al-Ma’idah 5:75 The Messiah, son of Mary, was no other than a messenger, messengers (the like of whom) had passed away before him. And his mother was a saintly woman. And they both used to eat (earthly) food. … Allah felt the need to mention they eat food, that this somehow proves they are human and refutes Christians.[5] Once again there’s not a single Christian who believes Mary is part of the Trinity, Allah can’t seem to get anything right.
“(They both used to eat food) needing nourishment and to relieve the call of nature. Therefore, they are just servants like other servants, not gods as ignorant Christian sects claim, may Allah’s continued curses cover them until the Day of Resurrection.”[6]
Why aren’t the Muslims providing any references proving that Christians worship Mary? There’s not a single bit of evidence brought to back the claim of the Qur’ān.
Here in Surah At-Tawbah 9:31 we have a different Trinity by Allah. “They have taken as lords beside Allah their rabbis and their monks and the Messiah son of Mary, when they were bidden to worship only One Allah. …” Allah can’t make up his mind, do the Christians worship:
Allah, The Messiah and Mary
Allah, Rabbis (Jews), Monks (Christians) and the Messiah
What happened to Mary in 9:31? All of a sudden she disappeared, Allah now adds Monks for the Christians. Even their god just like the Muslims doesn’t know what Christians believe.
It’s clear Allah doesn’t know what the Trinity is; even though we know Allah is really Muhammad masquerading as god who forgot what he said in one part of the Qur’ān and then contradicts himself in another part of the Qur’ān. Big poo poo!
Surah Al-Ma’idah 5:17 They indeed have disbelieved who say: Lo! Allah is the Messiah, son of Mary. … And Allah is Able to do all things.
Muslims believe Allah is the name of their god, so how can the Qur’ān say that Christians believe Allah is the Messiah, in other words, Jesus is Allah the name of their god? Additionally, the verse says Allah can do all things, yet he cannot have a son because he needs a girlfriend to have sexual intercourse [6:101]. What kind of god is limited that he needs a woman (spouse or consort) to have a son. This is how humans produce offspring and Allah can only do what his creation can in producing a son.[7]
This ayat only serves to prove that Allah cannot do all things as he’s limited in what he’s capable of. Yahweh is capable of having a Son as that’s not impossible for Him, this is why the God of the Bible is called Almighty.
Here we see the redundancy of Allah in Surah Al-Ma’idah 5:72 “They surely disbelieve who say: Lo! Allah is the Messiah, son of Mary. …”, this god repeats himself over and over that’s how cults get their doctrine into your head. Allah has nothing new to say just repetitive garbage.
Muslims attack the heretical teaching of Tritheism, believing in three separate Gods. Christians believe only in One God as the Torah proclaims. Allah cannot understand how the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are the 1 Almighty God. If God could be placed in a perfect box-like Allah can then you need to find yourself a new god.
There’s plurality in unity in the Torah we read how a husband and wife become one flesh. Does this mean they become one person? Of course not! Adam and Eve were still 2 separate persons who now as husband and wife are in perfect union with one another.
Islam lacks this concept as Muslims are under the false assumption that God must be a solitary person, how can Allah be “the Merciful” (الرَّحِيمِ) if he Allah existed all alone. He would have a need to create mankind first in order to be merciful, this means Allah lacked something and out of necessity had to create mankind. The same question has to be asked how can Allah be “Ar-Rahman” (the Most Gracious) (الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ) if he had none to be gracious too? Allah is truly limited.
In comparison Yahweh, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit were always eternally together in perfect union or fellowship. The God of the Bible is Love and didn’t need to create in order to be loving because all 3 Persons of the Trinity (Godhead) can be loving to one another before creation. Yahweh never lacked anything and it was out of love He created mankind.
Just like Adam and Eve are a picture of the union between all 3 Persons in the Trinity.[8] God is all self-sufficient and is sociable among the three Eternal Persons, we have communication all throughout the New Testament as the Son communicated with His Father (John 12:27-28).
The Father acknowledges His love for the Son (Matthew 17:5; Mark 9:7; Luke 9:35).[9] While Allah the god of Islam is mute and doesn’t communicate with his creation.
Conclusion
What have we learned today? Well, we’ve learned that Allah doesn’t know the concept of the Trinity and attributes false accusations toward Jews and Christians. Muslims believe in a god that lacked and needed to create mankind in order to show he’s “merciful”, this cannot be god. The true God Yahweh is superior in every way as all 3 Persons eternally loved each other and had perfect fellowship. The God of the Bible communicates not only between each other, but also communicates and loves His creation, which includes Muslims also.
Wake up Muhammadians Allah is a powerless idol who cannot provide anything. Come into the Light of Jesus Christ who created you in His image. May the Lord be magnified!

[1] “That the New Testament is monotheistic at the core is a fact recognized generally on all sides. The shadow of the Shema “Hear O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord” (Deut. 6:4), though never quoted in the New Testament (though alluded to in James 2:19), broods over its pages with all the weight it carried in Old Testament times, being the chief and holiest declaration of the Jewish religion. Such a monotheistic view pervades the whole outlook of Jesus: “It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve him only’” (Luke 4:8).” Beisner, E. C. (1984). God in three persons (Ser.

[2] “God the Father is preeminently the one who plans and ordains and initiates the course of history and the events that take place. The Father sends the Son into the world to accomplish redemption. The idea os sending presupposes that the Father ha already determined a mission for the Son. What the Son accomplishes is what the Father has planned. The Holy Spirit applies the accomplishments of the Son to those who are united to the Son by faith. (See fig 12.1) So we have three aspects: planning, accomplishment, and application. In the large story of redemption, these aspects have a succession in time. The planning belongs to the past. God has already planned from before the foundation of the world what he would do in redemption (Eph 1:4; 1 Peter 1:20; Rev 13:8). The accomplishments belong especially to the time of the earthly life of Christ, including his death and resurrection (“made manifest,” 1 Peter 1:20). The application belongs especially to the time when the Holy Spirit is at work from Pentecost onward” Poythress, V. S. (2020).

[8] “Genesis 2:24 is responding to the question of why a person would leave the closet biological relationship (parents to children) in order to forge a relationship with a biological outsider. The answer offered is that marriage goes beyond biology to recover an original state, for humanity is ontologically gendered. Ontology trumps biology.

Secondly, the sexes are complementary: the true partnership is expounded by the terms that are used (a helper fit for him, 18, 20, RSV; literally ‘a help as opposite him’, i.e. ‘corresponding to him’), by the fruitless search elsewhere, as man discerns the natures (expressing them in the names, 20) of other creatures, and by the fact that Eve is of the very stuff of Adam and yet a wholly new being. Adam’s joyful ‘at last …’ (23, RSV) grows into the first poetic couplet in the Bible, and his work of naming is triumphantly concluded in a title that echoes his own.

Our Muslim friends are at it again, we enjoy showing them the truth time and time again perhaps one day they’ll learn that they don’t know as much as they think they do. Either way, we love Muslims and pray for their salvation. And that brings up something quite hilarious.
On their blog, it reads “A Quiet Place in Cyberspace Dedicated to the Search for Truth and Salvation”, this word comes from the Bible as Christians use it to explain the redemption Christ Jesus has procured for us. Why are Muslims using Christian terminology?
Salvation in Arabic is (خلاص), this word was placed in Google translate, note on the bottom left. It mentions that Christians believe in salvation through faith in Christ. In the Qur’ān the word salvation is not used, you’ll find words like successful, attainment, victory etc. Yusuf Ali primarily had translated words like (الْمُفْلِحِينَ) which means “prosperous” into “salvation”, this is a deceptive translation.
Also provided is the Arabic dictionary as you can see the word (خلاص) and its definition. Therefore, we highly recommend that qnBb changes its title to reflect what Islam teaches.
Don’t expect them to change it because they dabble in deception and want people to think there’s salvation in Islam when in reality there’s none. Even Muhammad didn’t know if he would make it to Jannah, but I digress that this is a topic for another time.
The “Evidence” 2 John 9–11 (Surah Ali ‘Imran 3:28)
This will turn out bad for the Abdools, I hope they’re prepared. In their weak attempt to attack Christianity Muslims grossly misinterpret scriptures in hopes to get people to believe in their false religion. The ignorance of Abdools is on another level!
The unknown author of this letter did not mince words regarding associating with unbelievers. A Christian was forbidden to greet such a person or to let him in his house.
During the last supper in the upper room before Judas Iscariot would leave the company to betray Jesus to the Pharisees, John was sitting close to Christ, he was an eyewitness of all that Jesus Christ did which leads to 1 John 1:1.
The disciple John was part of the inner circle along with Peter and James. The 3 were privy to when Christ revealed His glory on the top of the Mount of Transfiguration. John would have touched, heard, and seen the miracles of Christ personally.
Keywords (emphasis ours): “That which was from the beginning, … we have heard, … seen with our eyes, … we have looked upon, … our hands have handled, of the Word of life;”.
A clear reading of the Gospel of John along with 1st, 2nd 3rd John and Revelation, John provides evidence that the one named the beloved disciple, also known as the disciple whom Jesus loved, is also the author of the named books.
This known phrase “the disciple whom Jesus loved” materialises a total of 5 times in the Gospel of John. This disciple has a prominent role to the extent that Simon Peter asked “Lord, and what shall this man do?” in reference to the beloved disciple’s ministry in John chapter 21.
External evidence for the authorship of 1 John:
Quotes from the Epistle as being authored by John the Apostle are Irenaeus1 in his work against Heresies mentions John by name stating that he taught certain principles namely Jesus as the only begotten Son of God, in which the Father created all things.
Other notable mentions are Clement of Alexandria,2 Tertullian, Origen and his pupil Dionysius who argued for the authorship of Johannine works.
If they understood the background of 2 John they wouldn’t make this grave mistake. The background of 2 John is a continuation of 1 John. The context is Christians who were travelling from house to house, in which Christians would gather for worship and fellowship before the construction of Church buildings. The Apostle John was writing to warn of false teachers who were masquerading as Christians and bringing into the congregation erroneous doctrine.
This is the background of 2 John, with that context in view we can now turn to the passage qnBb brought into question.
2 John 9-11 explains how if an individual comes and teaches false doctrine (like Muhammad) is not welcomed. These false teachers don’t “abide in the doctrine of Christ”, and what is that doctrine? It’s that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, God in the flesh, that He died for our sins and rose from the dead for our justification. That we can have salvation through the atoning death of the Lamb of God.
As well as the doctrine of the Trinity (Abdool trigger!), hence John writes stating whoever denies the fact that the Father and the Son collectively are the One True God. We are to not allow them to spread their cancerous doctrine in the assembly.3 Nowhere does it speak about not being friends with non-Christians. The Lord Jesus is called a friend of sinners (Matthew 11:19; Luke 7:34) as followers of Christ we are called to imitate Him.
If someone posing as a Muslim at a Masjid was spreading teachings contrary to Islam they wouldn’t be welcomed. This is the context of 2 John, he’s not telling Christians they cannot be friends with non-Christians. Now let’s bring this into the Qur’ān where Muslims are told not to be friends with non-Muslims. In Surah Al-Ma’idah the words from their god Allah says:
Believers are discouraged in Islam from taking unbelievers as friends, if they do Allah will not help them. And it gets worse. Allah commands Muslims to not be friends with people who don’t believe in Allah.
According to their Qur’ān Muslims are not allowed to take Jews or Christians as friends. It’s plain and simple, they try to add the word “war” etc. This verse mentions nothing about war, it has to do with a person’s BELIEF because they are not a Muslim, therefore, it’s not allowed to be friends with them.4 This is why the Qur’ān says if you do then you are one of them, in other words no longer a Muslim.
Here’s the Tafsir (emphasis ours):
(Let not the believers take) the believers ought not to take [the hypocrites:] ‘Abdullah Ibn Ubayy and his companions [and] (disbelievers) the Jews (for their friends) so as to become mighty and honourable (in preference to believers) who are sincere. (Whoso doeth that) seeking might and honour [by taking the hypocrites and disbelievers as friends] (hath no connection with Allah) has no honour, mercy or protection from Allah (unless (it be) that ye but guard yourselves against them) save yourselves from them, (taking (as it were) security) saving yourselves from them by speaking in a friendly way towards them with, while your hearts dislikes this. (Allah bideth you beware (only) of Himself) regarding the shunning of unlawful killing, unlawful sex, unlawful property, consuming intoxicants, false testimony and associating partners with Allah. (Unto Allah is the journeying) the return after death.5
Tafsir Ibn ‘Abbas
The donkeys at qnBb are unaware the homes spoken of by John are house churches. Christians gathered in different homes to worship and learn doctrine spoken of by the Lord Jesus passed on to His Apostles, and to the disciples. The 2nd Epistle of John is a letter warning the believers of the Gnostics who claimed “secret knowledge”, John was against their false teachings as they denied Christ came in the flesh.
The muta’h boys are arguing for heretical teaching. The Gnostics taught Jesus didn’t come in the flesh, that’s a direct rejection of the Qur’ān as this would deny that Isa came in the flesh. It’s hilarious they quote the church fathers as if they’re saying Christians cannot be friends with non-Christians.
The context is not to fellowship with those who teach erroneous doctrines masquerading as a Christian when they’re anything but. Cults such as Arianism, and Sabellianism are against orthodox Christianity.
It’s in this context the church fathers are read, when done so it’s clear to see they’re against cult teachings not people. Looking at the quotes in light of people like Jehovah’s Witnesses who teach Jesus is not God (Arianism), Oneness Pentecostals who say Jesus and the Father are the same Person (Sabellianism) or Mormons who teach Christ is one of many gods (polytheism).6
Tertullian: “Although we ought to be seeking at all times, where ought we to seek? Among the heretics, where all is foreign and opposed to our truth, with whom we are forbidden to associate?”
Ambrose of Milan: “Since it is written that we should avoid such people, how can we not assume that someone who associates with Arians is also an exponent of their heresy?”
Hilary of Arles: “Here you see an example of excommunication in the New Testament, both from table fellowship at home and from table fellowship in church.”
Irenaeus of Lyons: “By wishing that we do not even give them a welcome, John, the Lord’s disciple, made their condemnation even stronger.”
Clement of Alexandria: “John forbids us to greet such people or to offer them hospitality, which in the circumstances is not at all unkind. But he also warns us not to argue or dispute with people who are unable to handle the things of God, lest we should be taken away from the true doctrine by clever arguments which have the appearance of truth. Furthermore, I think that it is wrong to pray with such people, because during times of prayer there is a moment for greeting and sharing the peace.”
Didymus the Blind: “Anyone who dwells in the doctrine of the gospel and who acts according to its teaching will separate himself from those who think and act differently.”
The Abdools then said:
“… we saved the best for last. Basil “The Great” plainly stated that Christians cannot be “friends” with non-Christians. …”
Let’s be clear Christians follow Jesus Christ, not the church fathers or anyone else, qnBb mentions Basil “The Great” (emphasis ours):
“It is obvious that those who make friends of people who SPEAK FALSELY about God and who even eat with them do not love the Lord who made them and who feeds them. Instead of being content with that food they are led away into blasphemy against the one who feeds them.”
Basil “The Great”
I guess qnBb likes people speaking falsely about Allah their god. Perhaps they can take a few non-Muslims out to dinner who speak against Islam unless qnBb are hypocrites and won’t prove otherwise?
The “Evidence” 1 Corinthians 5:9–11
Thank you muta’h boys for a good laugh, it was fun! Muslim ignorance rears its ugly head again, 1 Corinthians 5:9–11 is speaking about someone who’s in fellowship in a local assembly. In other words, a Christian who is going around practising sin, as Christians we cannot tolerate sin among the fellowship of believers and the offending party is to be put out of assembly fellowship.
By doing so these sinful practices will not spread to the rest of the believers. As it’s said leaven corrupts and spreads like yeast in bread. The Lord Jesus said, “Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod” (Mark 8:15).
And in keeping in context with 1 Corinthians Paul the apostle said: “Your glorying [is] not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened [bread] of sincerity and truth.” (1 Corinthians 5:6-8).
Garland, D. E. (2003). 1 Corinthians (Ser. Baker exegetical commentary on the new testament). Baker Academic. p. 184-185
Garland in his exegetical commentary on the New Testament draws from the text, that the Corinthians had a problem in the church. There was an incident of an individual who committed incest with his father’s wife, this sin was unacceptable but the believers in the Corinthian church didn’t confront the man, thereby being complacent. Paul rebukes them saying this should not have happened.7
Muhammad on the other hand committed all sorts of sexual sins, he had sex with a minor as a child paedophile (Sahih al-Bukhari 5133), any believing woman can give herself to the prophet for sex (Quran 33:50).
Muhammad contradicted himself because he said in the book of Jame’ Alsag’er (Imam Al-Soiuty), Hadith 2994: “Any woman, [if] she gives herself to a man to marry him without her father’s, or man of the house’s permission, she is a whore”
Jame’ Alsag’er (Imam Al-Soiuty), Hadith 2994
Comparing this to 33:50 we have to ask the question, how can the woman, who gives herself to marry a man be a whore, but the woman who gives herself to Muhammad be a good/pious woman? Challenge give one woman’s name who became a wife to Muhammad by giving herself to him. None of his wives gave herself to him as there’s no such thing as marriage in Islam. Proof Muhammad was a sexually immoral man.
Conclusion
The truth is that Muslims worship an immoral man called Muhammad which means “the praised one”, how can a sinful man be praised? As a Christian, the only One who gets praised is God alone. The black stone smoochers love sin and are hypocritical, these are traits from Satan himself because that’s who Allah is. We can only continue to provide evidence from their own sources, showing them how sinful their prophet is, a man who allowed sexual immorality, lying, killing, extortion and a whole slew of other sinful practices.
We’ll close out this article with the words of their “god” Allah, notice how Allah wants to spread terror into the hearts of unbelievers. That’s not all he wants Muslims to smite people on the neck and cut off their fingertips.
What god commands such wickedness? Allah must love chicken fingers, maybe we should get him a bucket of KFC? Come to Christ our Muslim friends, the Lord Jesus knocks will you invite Him in? (Revelation 3:20)
And Allah (Shameful and Perish He’ll be) doesn’t know best!

At Whatsoeverthingsaretrue we love the Muslims, and pray for their salvation, may their eyes be opened to the truth. They need Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of their sins just like everyone else. They will worship Him as God and their Lord and Saviour as many Muslims are leaving Islam and now following Jesus Christ.
Forwarning this won’t be the usual article, it’ll be disturbing and gross as we look into the Life of prophet Muhammad the sinner. To those in Islam who blaspheme Christ, we forgive you as our Lord commands us to do [Matthew 12:31-32] even the most hateful person can be forgiven.[1]
As a Christian, my Lord tells me to love, forgive and pray for my enemies [Matthew 5:44, Luke 6:27, 35] those who would blaspheme against Christ.[2] It’s not my place to condemn anyone, that judgment is for God alone to make. But that doesn’t mean I’ll refrain from speaking the truth for I must speak the truth, with that said let’s get into it!
Muhammad The Sinner According to Qur’ān
Muslims are taught that Muhammad is perfect, the greatest of the prophets and an example for all mankind. Sadly, worship of their prophet has led to enormous lies compelling Muslims to assert that Muhammad was sinless. In truth, Muhammad sinned night and day. From having sex with a 9-year-old girl, breaking his oath to his wives, torturing a man for money etc. We’re going to look at their trusted sources, Qur’ān and Hadith proving Muhammad was a sinner.
In Surah Muhammad 47:19 Allah orders Muhammad to “ask forgiveness for your sin” (ٱسْتَغْفِرْ لِذَنۢبِكَ) and tells him that he would “forgive you your sins of the past and the future” [47:19; 48:2]
The following Arabic words from 47:19 (ٱسْتَغْفِرْ لِذَنۢبِكَ) if entered into Google Translate, will render what’s shown below.
Abdools can’t reject this fact it’s from Qur’ān saying Muhammad was a sinner. If not he wouldn’t have anything to ask forgiveness for, a challenge to Muslims to show in their Qur’ān Jesus Christ asking for forgiveness. In Qur’ān Christ is a Pure Boy [19:19], therefore, they’re denying Qur’ān and calling Allah and Muhammad liars if they claim Jesus is anything but sinless. Here’s one such denial from quranandbibleblog: The Sinful Savior: Why the Biblical Jesus Was Not “Sinless” They deny their own prophet proving Islam is a false religion, we must thank them for all thier help.
Allah tells Muhammad “that Allah may forgive thee of thy sin past and that to come.” If this is Allah talking who’s Allah talking to saying “that Allah may forgive thee.” He should say “that I may forgive” so who is Allah referring to another Allah? Secondly, Allah doesn’t know if Muhammad’s sins will be forgiven, why is Allah saying “that Allah may forgive” is he not sure? To sin means to miss the mark, in Muhammad’s case he didn’t even know where the mark was.
The Arabic in [48:2] is provided (لِّيَغْفِرَ لَكَ ٱللَّهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِن ذَنۢبِكَ), I’d love to hear the excuse for these ayats. Bring any ayat from Qur’ān saying Muhammad never sinned if they can? That’s right they cannot because it doesn’t exist.
In Sahih Al-Bukhari 6307, Muhammad begs Allah, who in their right mind can say this man Muhammad is not sinful? “turn to him in repentance for more than seventy times a day” he sins so much that he’s repenting 70 times a day, he spent the entire day repenting because that’s how much he’s been sinning.
In Sunan Ibn Majah 3815 mirrors the hadith above, of course, Abdools will deny it till the cows come home, all they can do is try to run away from the madness of Muhammad.
Muhammad the dirty Prophet
It might come as a surprise to hear that their prophet took baths with dead dogs and women’s blood from periods. Here’s the Hadith from their own books saying Muhammad was swimming in water which had faeces, I couldn’t imagine how bad he smelled! Merriam Webster definition excrement: waste matter discharged from the body especially: FECES[3]
According to Sunan Abi Dawud 67, Muhammad would perform wudu (ablution) in filthy water which had dead dogs, women’s blood from their monthly period and excrement. Yet Muslims claim he’s holy?[4]
Imagine Muhammad washing his face, rinsing his mouth and nose with faeces. Washing his arms, wiping his head, ears and feet up to the ankles. The well of Buda’ah would make him dirtier unpure/unholy. In Islam, if a woman having her period cannot enter the Masjid and she must wait until she’s pure?[5]
Muhammad the hypocrite doesn’t follow Qur’ān, he’s bathing in women’s period blood before praying. In Islam, the man is to stay away from women during their menses and here’s Muhammad swimming in it before praying. This means Muhammad was constantly in a filthy state and unfit to pray by Islamic standards.
The following is a plethora of Hadith’s which speak of Muhammad being covered in semen. Don’t lose sight that these are Sahih, therefore, they are accepted by their scholars and not daif (weak) even though all of Islam is daif.
Aisha scraped semen off of Muhammad’s clothes with her fingernails poor Aisha not only was she the victim of child paedophilia but she also had to scrape semen off Muhammad Sahih al-Bukhari 232.
“I (‘Aisha) used to scrape it (the semen) off his garment with my nails while it was dry.”Bulugh al-Maram 28. Muhammad must have been cheap and only owned one garment.
How repulsive where’s all this semen coming from? Muhammad must have had a medical problem. “I remember when I found it (semen) on the garment of the Messenger of Allah and I scratched it off.”Sunan Ibn Majah 539.
“Aishah said: “I often scraped it (semen) from the garment of the Messenger of Allah with my hand.”Sunan Ibn Majah 537.
“Aisha: I used to wash the traces of Janaba (semen) from the clothes of the Prophet (ﷺ) and he used to go for prayers while traces of water were still on it (water spots were still visible).”Sahih al-Bukhari 229.
The Paedophile Prophet
What follows is an insane amount of citations from the Hadith and Tafsir confirming Muhammad’s prepubescent sexual intercourse with Aisha and Allah’s approval of it for all believing men as well. We’ll define puberty first from the Islamic sources, and then address the latter. There we will also address the “women” in [65:4] which some Muslims claim is only used for adult women.
“Attaining of puberty” and “start of menses” are used synonymously (باب بُلُوغِ الصِّبْيَانِ وَشَهَادَتِهِمْ) the Arabic translated is “Children’s Puberty and Their Testimony” (Sahih al-Bukhari 3:52 Chapter 18)[6]
“Al-Mughira” (evidently a boy) attained puberty at the age of 12 in Bukhari 3:52 chapter 18. This is page 486 of vol 3 of Khan’s translation. The chapter introductions are usually left untranslated online. Image of the relevant part of the page is included here for your perusal and refutes the “early puberty” theory that Muslims claim.
Sahih al-Bukhari 5133“the Prophet (ﷺ) married her [Aisha] when she was six years old and he consummated his marriage when she was nine years old….”
The chapter heading for the hadith just cited is telling. It comes from Khan’s translation, volume 7, page 57, and is included here for your convenience.
Sahih Muslim 1422 c“…married her when she was seven years old, and she was taken to his house as a bride when she was nine, and her dolls were with her.”
Sahih al-Bukhari 6130“(The playing with the dolls and similar images is forbidden, but it was allowed for Aisha at that time, as she was a little girl, not yet reached the age of puberty.)”
Sunan Abi Dawud 4931“I used to play with dolls. Sometimes the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) entered upon me when the girls were with me. When he came in, they went out, and when he went out, they came in.”
Sunan Abi Dawud 4935 Aisha was playing on a swing set when they came to get her, this Hadith is Sahih in chain.
Sahih a;-Bukhari 5081 Abu Bakr apparently objects to the young marriage: “The Prophet (ﷺ) asked Abu Bakr for `Aisha’s hand in marriage. Abu Bakr said “But I am your brother.”…”
Sahih al-Bukhari 5236“… So you may deduce from this event how a little girl (who has not reached the age of puberty) who is eager to enjoy amusement should be treated in this respect.”
Sahih al-Bukhari 5190“… So you may estimate of what age a little girl may listen to amusement.” Note: “Aisha was fifteen years old then.”
[65:4] “And if you are in doubt about those of your women who have despaired of menstruation, (you should know that) their waiting period is three months, and the same applies to those who have not menstruated as yet…”
[33:49] “O believers! If you marry believing women and divorce them before the marriage is consummated, you are not required to observe the Iddah (waiting period)…”
Tafsir Ibn Kathir“This is a command on which the scholars are agreed, that if a woman is divorced before the marriage is consummated, she does not have to observe the `Iddah (prescribed period for divorce) and she may go and get married immediately to whomever she wishes.”
Allah the Exalted clarifies the waiting period of the woman in menopause. And that is the one whose menstruation has stopped due to her older age. Her `Iddah is three months instead of the three monthly cycles for those who menstruate, which is based upon the Ayah in (Surat) Al-Baqarah. ﴿see 2:228﴾ The same for the young, who have not reached the years of menstruation. Their `Iddah is three months like those in menopause…Tafsir Ibn Kathir on 65:4
Maududi“Therefore, making mention of the waiting-period for the girls who have not yet menstruated, clearly proves that it is not only permissible to give away the girl in marriage at this age but it is also permissible for the husband to consummate marriage with her. Now, obviously, no Muslim has the right to forbid a thing which the Qur’ān has held as permissible.”
Tafsir al-Jalalayn“those who have not yet menstruated because of their young age their period shall also be three months”
Asbab Al-Nuzul by Al-Wahidi“He said: ‘Those who are too young [such that they have not started menstruating yet]…And so this verse (And for such of your women as despair of menstruation…) was revealed.”
Tafsir Ibn ‘Abbas“O Messenger of Allah! What about the waiting period of those who do not have menstruation because they are too young?”
Homosexual acts he was sexually intimate with his Uncle
[93:6] Did He not find you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) an orphan and gave you a refuge?
In regards to Surah Ad-Dhuha 93:6 Imam Fakhr Al Din Al Razi in his tafseer says The story goes that when Muhammad’s mother was pregnant his father Abdul Allah ben Abdul Motalib died. After he was born he was passed on to his grandfather Abdul Motalib at the age of 2 years old. When he reached the age of 8 years old his grandfather died and Muhammad but before Abdul Motlib death he asked Muhammad’s uncle to take care of him.
Muhammad’s uncle (Abu Talib) was intimate with him telling Muhammad “One night I ordered him to take off his clothing and sleep with me, so I saw resentment on his face and but hate to show disobedience” Muhammad responds “Oh uncle put your face away until I take off my clothing as no one should see my naked body” his uncle thinks “And then I found that he is too soft and smells so good as if he is soaked in cents, so I kept trying hard to stare at his body.”
Here’s the same account in Arabic with Google Translation, feel free to copy the text and translate it yourself.
Muhammad claimed that he was raped by his cousin Abu Soffian Ibn Harith ben Abdel Motalib.
Al Sirah Al Nabawiah Sirah Ibn Hisham
Reported by Ibn Ishaq: And it was that Abu Soffian Ibn Harith ben Abdel Motalib and Abdul Allah ben Obay Omiah Ben Al Moghirah had met prophet of Allah (pbuh) at a place called “Naik Al Okab” between Mecca and Madina, so they wanted to enter in his presence, so Om Sallamah talked to him about that saying: Oh prophet of Allah, it is your cousin from your uncle and your other cousin from you aunt and your kinsman. So he (Muhammad) answered: “I have nothing to do with those 2, in regards to my cousin he raped me, and in regards to the other cousin he said what he said to me in Mecca”. So when it came to them what the prophet said and with Abu Soffian was one of his own siblings, abu Soffian responded back saying: “Swearing by Allah he must allow me in or I will take this kid with my hand and wonder in the land until we die of hunger and thirst!”, so when Rassoul Allah heard that he softened to them and accept them in and then they entered and accepted Islam
Sexual Encounters with the Sahaba!
In Al Sunan Al Kobra Reported by Abu Ali Al Ruzbarri, from Abu Bakr ben Dassah, Thana Abu Dawood, Thana Obed Allah ben Moaz, Thana Abi, Thana Kahmas, from Siar ben Nasour – reported: A man from Banni Fazazah from a woman called Bahisah about her father said: My father (Abu Bahisah) took permission from the prophet (pbuh) and he entered between him and his shirt and began to kiss him and embrace him,
Reference for the previous 3 segments provided below where you can read all of the details, plus additional information such as Muhammad getting his chest rubbed and kissed from Abu Bahisah, and fantasizing about other men, threesomes with his Sahaba and wives. Naked people riding Muhammad like a donkey[7]
Muhammad The Liar
Muhammad taught it’s halal to lie, what kind of prophet teaches lying is ok? Only a satanic prophet. This man says it’s ok to lie to your wife, how evil is this?! The Bible says that all liars will have their part in the lake of fire [Revelation 21:8]. Muhammad is definitely in hell and will be tossed into the Lake of Fire by Jesus Christ.
Muhammad The Adulterer
The Qur’ān says this marriage in [33:36] was arranged by Muhammad and “Allah” (truth is Allah doesn’t exist it’s Muhammad making things up) making the decision to take Zayd and Zaynab. Muhammad took his own adopted son’s wife from him causing a divorce.
Conclusion
While we’ll commence the article here, as there’s just too much dirt on Muhammad, like a long laundry list. But not to worry we’ll keep on posting about the wonderful life of Muhammad because the muta’h boys love it. Just to summarise what we’ve learned today, (1) Muhammad was a sinner who begged Allah to forgive him, (2) he was a dirty man bathing in excrement, dead dogs and period water, (3) Aisha scraped semen off the prophet, (4) he was a child paedophile, (5) a raging homosexual, (6) and a liar to boot, (7) and last but not least an adulterer. The Dawahgandist have no chance defending their sinful prophet, we’re having fun here making BBQ Muhammad. How Muslims are so lost to the point that they worship this man is beyond me, but it shows the low moral standards in Islam. If Muhammad is the best example for mankind then the world is in grave trouble.
May the eyes, hearts and minds of Muslims wake up from following this evil cult and come into the wonderful grace of the Lord Jesus Christ for eternal life.
[1] Matthew Henry, Matthew Henry’s complete unabridged commentaries, Commentary on Matthew 12 “Here is a gracious assurance of the pardon of all sin upon gospel terms: this Christ says to us, and it is a comfortable saying, that the greatness of sin shall be no bar to our acceptance with God, if we truly repent and believe the gospel: All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men. Though the sin has been as scarlet and crimson (Isa. 1:18), though ever so heinous in its nature, ever so much aggravated by its circumstances, and ever so often repeated, though it reach up to the heavens, yet with the Lord there is mercy, that reacheth beyond the heavens; mercy will be extended even to blasphemy, a sin immediately touching God’s name and honour. Paul obtained mercy, who had been a blasphemer, 1 Tim. 1:13. Well may we say, Who is a God like unto thee, pardoning iniquity? Micah 7:18. Even words spoken against the Son of man shall be forgiven; as theirs were who reviled him at his death, many of whom repented and found mercy. Christ herein has set an example to all the sons of men, to be ready to forgive words spoken against them: I, as a deaf man, heard not. Observe, They shall be forgiven unto men, not to devils; this is love to the whole world of mankind, above the world of fallen angels, that all sin is pardonable to them.”

[5] “keep away from women during menses and go not unto them till they are purified” “With regard to the Sunnah, Muslim (302) narrated from Anas that the Jews, if any of their women was menstruating, would not eat with them or meet with them in their houses. The companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) asked the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) about that, then Allaah revealed the verse (interpretation of the meaning):” “They ask you concerning menstruation. Say: that is an Adha (a harmful thing for a husband to have a sexual intercourse with his wife while she is having her menses), therefore, keep away from women during menses and go not unto them till they are purified (from menses and have taken a bath). And when they have purified themselves, then go in unto them as Allaah has ordained for you (go in unto them in any manner as long as it is in their vagina). Truly, Allaah loves those who turn unto Him in repentance and loves those who purify themselves” [al-Baqarah 2:222] https://islamqa.info/en/answers/36722/intimacy-with-ones-wife-when-she-is-menstruating-or-in-nifaas
Muslims in their weak attempt at discrediting the Bible stoop very low unknowingly calling their own prophet a liar. Their prophet Muhammad said he believes in the Torah saying “I believe in thee and in him who revealed thee.”[1]
Muslims are willingly denying their prophet who believes in the Bible (Injil) revealed from Allah, which is “guidance and light”. The Qur’ān says it confirms the scriptures which came before the Qur’ān, but Abdools are forced to deny the truth because the Qur’ān contradicts the Bible.
In Surah Al-Ma’idah 5:43-47 Allah says the Jews have the Torah, and to use it for judgement, as the Torah was sent down from Allah which is guidance and light. Allah also gave Jesus the Gospel which is guidance and light confirming the Torah and that the Christians are to judge by what Allah revealed.[2]
It’s funny we have articles from Abdools lying and denying what the Bible contains thereby inadvertently admitting their prophet and god are false. Here’s such an article from quranandbibleblogWas Jesus “Worshiped” in the Gospels?
“While it can be reasonably argued that the gospel of John presents a higher Christology than the Synoptic gospels, wherein Jesus is made to be a “divine” being of some sort, it is much more difficult to prove that he was “equal” to the Father. However, that is the subject of a separate article. In this article, we will analyze some verses in the Synoptic gospels where Jesus was allegedly “worshiped” by his followers, or so the Christians have claimed.” — quranandbibleblog
It’s not hard Abdools to prove Jesus is equal to the Father. Verses which say Jesus is equal to God (John 5:18, Philippians 2:6), but before we get off track let’s get back to the topic. Our task is to provide evidence Jesus Christ was worshipped. We’ve established Muhammad believes in the Torah, and Allah sent down the Gospel, the same one in which Jesus Christ is worshipped.
Their argument “While this list seems to show an impressive amount of evidence that Jesus was “worshiped”, it is actually misleading. Note that most of the verses are found in the Gospel of Matthew, but more importantly, despite all of these verses using the same Greek word, προσκυνέω (proskyneō)”. — quranandbibleblog
The Lord Jesus when He was tempted in the wilderness by Satan Christ said “Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.” Matthew 4:10 I’m sure Muslims would agree that Jesus is telling Satan to worship God, the word used is προσκυνήσεις (proskyníseis) Future Active Indicative. The object in this context is worship to God, notice Jesus didn’t say “worship the Father” even though the Father should indeed receive worship. Jesus said “worship God”, the context determines the meaning of how proskyneō is being used.
In the book of Hebrews chapter 1 the context is the comparison of Jesus Christ against angels, how Christ “being so much better than the angels” Hebrews 1:4. As the Father commands the angels to worship the Son (Jesus Christ) saying “And let all the angels of God worship him” Hebrews 1:6 προσκυνησάτωσαν (proskynisátosan) Aorist Active Imperative. We learn here that Jesus is superior to the angels and they are to worship Him.
What’s really troubling for Muslims is the book of Revelation in which the Lamb of God is worshipped. Who is the Lamb of God? We’re told in John 1:29 and John 1:36 that it’s Jesus Christ. In Revelation, we have a vision in heaven God the Father is sitting on the throne the question is asked “Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?” Revelation 5:2. None “in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth” Revelation 5:3 was worthy to open the book. Only the Lamb was worthy to open the book Revelation 5:6-7.
At this point, Jesus Christ who is the Lamb receives universal worship from all of creation. Notice this worship which all of creation is taking part is directed to “him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.” Revelation 5:13. Here the word used is προσεκύνησαν (prosekýnisan) Aorist Active Indicative, only God alone deserves this kind of worship and Christ is receiving this worship.
Early Years Of The Messiah-King (2:1-12)
Each Gospel focuses on a theme, Matthew places attention on the Kingship of Jesus Christ the Messiah,Mark showcases Christ as God’s Perfect Servant,Luke is about the Lord Jesus as the Son of Man the Perfect Man, and John focuses on the divinity of Christ as God.
The Abdools are wrong in saying all of the verses use the same word προσκυνέω (proskyneō). Matthew 2:2 uses the word προσκυνῆσαι which is an Aorist Active Infinitive derived from the root word προσκυνέω. It’s important to know how these words are used in multiple ways in Greek, it can refer to a singular or plural expression, the object involved, the tense and mood.
προσκυνῆσαι is a word which expresses continuous activity and the tense refers to action in the present or future. The tense locates the action of a verb in time, relative to the time of the speaker. Greek is a precise language and provides ample evidence that the Magi worshipped (continuous action) Christ as God.
The context of Matthew tells us the Magi came from the East due to seeing a star “For we saw his star in the east (ειδομεν γαρ αυτου τον αστερα εν τη ανατολη).” It’s possible the Magi were familiar with the Messianic prophecies such as Numbers 24:17 “Star out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of Israel”[3]
As well as the 70 weeks foretelling the first coming of Christ in Daniel 9:24-25 “to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness,…that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks”.[4]
Let’s not overlook the powerful statement the Magi made in saying “Where is he that is born King of the Jews?”[5] Every king in this world is made king, but Jesus Christ is born King.
Matthew 2:8 recalls the account of when Herod was informed of the birth of the King of the Jews but the word used here is different from the above verse. Matthew 2:8 uses a different word προσκυνήσω (proskyníso), this word is an Aorist Active Subjunctive, in Greek, there are different moods the indicative, infinitive, imperative and subjunctive. Why is this important? We’ll get to that in a moment.
Our friends at quranandbibleblog said “So, it appears that the word simply means to “bow down” or to “worship”. However, notice that the Analytical Lexicon of the Greek New Testament states that this “worship” or “veneration” could also be directed “toward human beings”, and it gives the examples of Revelation 3:9 and 13:4. This is where Christians get into some serious trouble. While Revelation 13:4 is not problematic as it refers to the false worship of the “dragon” and “beast” in the end times, Revelation 3:9 is very problematic and exposes the inconsistencies of the Christians.”
In the following verse king Herod tells the Magi “Go and search diligently for the young child; and when ye have found him, bring me word again, that I may come and worship him also”.[6] Herod had no intention of worshipping Christ he just wanted to locate Him in order to kill Him because Jesus Christ was a threat to Herod’s kingship.
The word προσκυνήσω (proskyníso) is hypothetical, the subjunctive mood primarily can be actions in the present or future. All at the same time covered by the primary tenses of verbs. There are 3 tenses for a subjunctive expressing aspect, not time. These are present: ongoing aspect, aorist: simple aspect and perfect: completed aspect.
To Philadelphia (3:7-13)
This is seen also in the book of Revelation, the same book quranandbibleblog claimed “Revelation 3:9 is very problematic and exposes the inconsistencies of the Christians.” if Abdools took time to read they would’ve seen Revelation 3:9 uses the word προσκυνήσωσιν.
Providing both the English translation Greek we see that this word is different, Revelation 3:9 uses a Subjunctive which is speaking hypothetically, the context determines the meaning of the verse in question.
The Christians at Philadelphia were being persecuted by those who called themselves Jews (the synagogue) but were not true Jews. These Jews claimed the name but they were not true Jews, they had no spiritual connection to the people of faith who had the faith of Abraham.
Because of their faithfulness to the Lord Jesus, they would be vindicated from this particular group saying “I will make them come and worship before your feet”,[7] Christ would ensure that their persecutors recognized they were wrong, and the Lord Jesus and His followers were right.
In regards to Revelation 3:9, they said: “Christians will get into some serious theological trouble, as it would mean that humans can rightly be “worshiped” as well” — quranandbibleblog
The surrounding context of the verses that follow determine that this is speaking of the Christians enduring persecution, Jesus is not making those persecutors worship the Christians, but that those persecutors would acknowledge God seeing that the followers of Christ were right in their worship of Jesus.
If Strangers Enter A Meeting (14:24-25)
This concept is seen in the epistle written to the Corinthians, the context is of an unbeliever in the midst of Christians (worship service) and coming to the understanding God is real. As his heart is exposed before God he falls down and worships making a profession of faith.
This solidifies that it wasn’t Christians who were being worshipped by this unbeliever, but God was worshipped in the presence of Christians. Quranandbibleblog wrenched verses out of their context not understanding these verses.
This presents a problem for Muslims because Jesus Christ was worshipped yet Muslims are worshipping a pagan god called Lah. These verses use specific words in Greek giving us context and meaning of how to render those words.
Wise Men Come to Worship The Messiah King (2:1-12)
Matthew 2:11 προσεκύνησαν (prosekýnisan), Aorist Active Indicative. When they entered the house and saw the Child with Mary His mother. They fell down and worshipped Him, offering costly gifts consisting of gold, frankincense and myrrh. Notice that the Magi saw Jesus with His mother. Normally the mention of the mother would come first and then the child, but this Child was anything but ordinary for He must be given the preeminence (vv. 13, 14, 20, 21).
The Magi worshipped Him, not Mary or Joseph. The gifts they brought are a testament to who Christ is. Gold signifies the deity of Christ and His glory. Frankincense speaking to the sinless perfection of the Lord Jesus. And Myrrh is a bitter herb which speaks to the sufferings He would endure bearing the sins of the world on the cross. Woefully Muhammad was never born king.
The power of the Lord Jesus over Leprosy (8:1-4)
Matthew 8:2 προσεκύνει (prosekýnei), Imperfect Active Indicative. In Greek, the imperfect tense is fundamentally the present tense transferred back into the past. The imperfect is a state of existence or action that’s still going on in the past.
Matthew 8:2 proves the power of the Lord Jesus over Leprosy (8:1-4), the teaching of Christ had a drawing power to the point that great multitudes followed Him. Truth verifies itself and though people may not like it, they’ll never forget it. A leper approaches Jesus with a desperate appeal to be healed from his leprosy.
The leper’s had faith that Christ could cure him, and he was indeed healed by the touch of Christ. Leprosy is an appropriate picture of sin due to it being loathsome, destructive and infectious.
Lepers were untouchables physical contact with them might expose a person to infection, but this was not the case with Jesus Christ as He can never be infected because He’s God. In the OT a person with leprosy was unfit to worship with the congregation of Israel, and Christ healed him of this disease. Muhammad, unfortunately, had no ability to heal anyone.
Jesus has the power to heal the incurable and raise the dead (9:18-26)
Matthew 9:18 προσεκύνει (prosekýnei), which is an Imperfect Active Indicative. Matthew 9:18 Jesus gives a discourse on the change of dispensations and was interrupted by a worried ruler whose daughter just died. The ruler knelt before the Lord and requested for Him to come and restore his daughter’s life. Jesus honoured the ruler’s faith. The Lord Jesus took her by the hand, and then she rose from the dead. Sadly, Muhammad never brought anyone back from the dead.
Jesus walks on the Sea (14:22-33)
Matthew 14:33 προσεκύνησαν (prosekýnisan), Aorist Active Indicative. The previous verses of Matthew 14 are proof that Christ did miracles assuring His disciples they followed the One who could abundantly provide, now they learn that Christ is the One who can protect and empower them also.
In verses 22-28 we read how the disciples were a ship, the disciples find themselves in the midst of a storm, the sea tossed them and waves were crashing down. Jesus comes to them walking on the sea. When they saw Him they thought Jesus was a spirit, but Christ says “Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.”[8]
Peter asked to come on the water with Him and the Lord Jesus says “Come”, Peter starts to walk on the water to Christ but then becomes afraid because of the storm. Peter begins to sink crying Lord save me. Jesus Christ saves him by taking his hand. When they came into the boat all His disciples worshipped Him. Unfortunately, Muhammad had no power to control nature.
Concerning Position in The Kingdom (20:20-28)
Matthew 20:20 προσκυνοῦσα (proskynoúsa), Present Active Participle. We have the mother of James and John approaching the Lord asking that her 2 sons could sit on either side of Him in his kingdom. She didn’t understand the principles upon which honour is given in the kingdom.
The sons of Zebedee and their mother knew who Christ is as they knew He was the ruler of the kingdom, therefore, they did that which was appropriate for them to do and worshipped Him. Regrettably, Muhammad is not in the kingdom and has no place in it.
The King’s Triumph (28:1-10)
Matthew 28:9 προσεκύνησαν (prosekýnisan), Aorist Active Indicative. Chapter 28 the burial and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, how He’s victorious over the grave. The women at the sepulchre were told by the angel to go quickly and announce the glorious news to His disciples.
Christ rose from the dead! After they told His disciples about the empty tomb Jesus appeared to them and greeted them saying “hail”, they responded by falling to His feet and worshipping Him.[9]When Muhammad died he didn’t come back from the dead, in fact when he died he was stinking and farting according to the Islamic sources.
The Great Commission (28:16-20)
Matthew 28:17 προσεκύνησαν (prosekýnisan), Aorist Active Indicative. In Galilee Christ Jesus rose from the dead and appeared to His disciples, this is the same appearance in Mark 16:15-18 and 1 Corinthians 15:6. The Lord was triumphant over death as He rose from the dead just as He prophesied He would and because He lives those in Christ live as well.
He stood before His disciples in His glorified body. They worshipped Him as the everlasting living God. Then Christ said that all authority had been given to Him in heaven and on earth. While He always had all authority as God, here He was speaking of authority as Head of all creation. Muhammad never had authority over creation.
The Gadarene Demoniac Healed (5:1-20)
Mark 5:6 προσεκύνησεν (prosekynisan), Aorist Active Indicative. The Gadarenes was located on the east side of Galilee. It was in this place Christ met a demon-possessed man, this violent individual frightened the locals. They tried everything to restrain him but nothing worked, the man lived in the mountains and would cut himself.
When the demoniac man saw Jesus he ran to him and worshipped Him. Verse 7 is telling at this point it was not the man speaking but the demon. The demon responds in a loud voice “What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.”[10]
This demon knew who Jesus was and what He was capable of doing, he even calls Him the Son of God, this proves that Jesus Christ existed before His birth. The Lord Jesus commands the demon to come out of him and to reveal himself, he responded by saying his name is Legion. Signifying the man was possessed with many demons. Then Jesus sends the demons out of the man with authority and power. Embarrassingly for a prophet of god Muhammad had no miracles.
The Son of Man’s Ascension (24:50-53)
Luke 24:52 προσκυνήσαντες (proskynísantes), Aorist Active Participle. The Ascension of Christ happened 40 days after His resurrection. He lead His disciples to Bethany by the Mount of Olives, He then lifted up His hands and blessed them. More proof that Jesus is God as the source of all blessings only come from God. If we as a human were to bless someone we ask for God to bless them, all blessings flow from the greater (God) to the lesser (the individual being blessed). But Christ blessed them directly and only God can do this.
Christ didn’t ask for the Father to bless them, Jesus did the blessing Himself. Hebrews 7:7 “And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better.”[11] Then Jesus was taken up into heaven, as the disciples looked upon Him they worshipped Him
To close out this article I thought it necessary to point out something very significant. Muslims accuse Christians of worshipping a man, what they don’t understand is that we worship God who BECAME a real Man. But here’s the hypocrisy their god Allah was the first to commit shirk as he commanded the angels to worship a man. Let’s look at some of those ayats which prove the Qur’an is a false book from Satan.
Well isn’t that something, we’re told that Islam is a pure monotheistic religion yet their god is commanding worship to Adam. Christians worship Jesus Christ because He’s God who came down from heaven, took upon Himself human flesh and walked among us, but Adam is a creation he’s just a man who’s receiving worship because Allah told the angels to worship him. This is sufficient evidence proving Islam is a pagan cult, nothing about it is monotheistic.
Conclusion
We brought evidence that Muhammad believed in the Torah and Bible (Injil), that Jesus Christ is worshipped as God. Here at Whatsoeverthingsaretrue we take hold of the Muslim lies and make mashed potatoes. Our Muslim friends will have to try harder. We don’t hate Muslims but love them enough to tell them the truth, that they need Jesus Christ for salvation.
