I don’t know much about Islam. Always thought the people came from, and I’m sorry for any misspelling and misconceptions, Hagar and Ishmiel. It’s where I thought their idea that all men and especially women are created slaves and put on earth mainly to serve God. I believe they consider Abraham their father, like the Jews and there is a relic in Mecca, from Abraham, and that is why it is considered holy?
My daughter learned about Mohamad in school. It seemed he was a very religous man, intent on honoring God, and his intentions seemed honorable. When he had revalation of God, he wanted their people to join religion with the Jews but the Jews refused them and they became at odds.
It seems unfortunate that many are willing to die for hate of others, instead of live for love of God.
Thank you for anyone who can correct me on any ideas I’ve stated here that are incorrect.
Peace,
Elizabeth
