Genesis315:
This is what I don’t get. How do Muslims know they haven’t gone into error like allegedly happened to the Christians?
Abraham believed in one God and called people to His worship
Moses believed in one God and called people to His worship
Jesus believed in one God and called people to His worship
Mohamed believed in one God and called people to His worsihp
The essential message has not changed. Mohamed peace be upon him did not add a new idea about God. He said exactly what Abraham and Moses said. We dont deny any of the messengers and none of the revelations that were given to these messengers
The Messenger (Muhammad) believes in what has been sent down to him from his Lord, and (so do) the believers. Each one believes in Allah, His Angels, His Books, and His Messengers. They say, “We make no distinction between one another of His Messengers” - and they say, “We hear, and we obey. (We seek) Your Forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the return (of all).” (Quran 2:285)
Although Mohamed peace be upon him could have attributed some divinity to himself and accepted the power and money that the Pagan meccans offered him…he did not. The Quran is filled with verses saying that Mohamed is just a man.
Like Jesus, Mohamed did not know everything. For example, the coming of the hour was knowledge they both recognized belonged to God alone.
