Wow. As thr Catholic half of a well-functioning interfaith marriage to a Muslim, I feel, out of a sense of protectiveness for my Husband and his people, the need for my first post to address this question as kindly, and succinctly as possible. So, point by point:
With all due respect to your marriage, you should not enter these discussions because you will put yourself in the position of attacking your Lord:
Luke 14
26If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and
wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.
I hope some intellectual muslim could answer us on this.
The fact is that Muslims have no intellectual answer. You might be living under the presumption that all faiths are equally true. The fact is that Islam is a complete lie.
Muhammad was born without a father and his mother died soon after he was born.
Jesus had a miraculous birth.
Not disputed by Islam at all…
You missed the point entirely. The point is that Mohammed is not the “one like his brethren” Muslims claim that Jesus is not the Prophet of which Scripture speaks, but Mohammed.
Muhammad committed acts of murder, lying & pedophilia according to the hadeeths of muslim, tabari & bukhari
Jesus had impeccable character.
Well there’s a hate-laden statement. …
No it isn’t. It is pretty factual. It is a matter of record for the most part.
Amazing how many of our own heroes could be considered murderers.
But not Jesus. And the comparison is between Mohammed and Jesus.
The same could be said for Moses, drowning the army of the Pharoh.
That was God.
David murdered Goliath, under your own definition.
That was warfare. Kill or be killed. Goliath would have killed David if he had been able to grab him.
Lying? Elaborate please… I searched the Hadith and can’t find the instance.
…To this effect, the Prophet says: 'He is not a false person who (through lies) settles conciliation among people, supports good or says what is good." In exploring this puzzling duplicity within Islam, we will examine first some examples from recent and ancient Islamic history. These examples demonstrate that lying is a common policy amongst Islamic clerics and statesmen.
This point is proven by many incidences in the life of Mohammed. He often lied and instructed his followers to do the same. He rationalized that the prospect of success in missions to extend Islam’s influence overrode Allah’s initial prohibitions against lying. A good example of sanctioned lying is the account of the assassination of Kaab Ibn al-Ashrf, a member of the Jewish tribe, Banu al-Nudair. It had been reported that Kaab had shown support for the Quraishites in their battle against Mohammed. This was compounded by another report that infuriated Mohammed. It was alleged that Kaab had recited amorous poetry to Muslim women. Mohammed asked for volunteers to rid him of Kaab Ibn al-Ashraf. As Mohammed put it, Kaab had “Harmed Allah and His Apostle.” At that time Kaab Ibn al-Ashraf, and his tribe were strong, so it was not easy for a stranger to infiltrate and execute the task. A Muslim man by the name of Ibn Muslima, volunteered for the murderous project on the condition that Mohammed would allow him to lie. With Mohammed’s consent, Ibn Muslima, went to Kaab and told him fabricated stories that reflected discontent about Mohammed’s leadership. When he had gained Kaab’s trust he lured him away from his house one night and murdered him in a remote area under the cover of darkness.
A similar example can be found in the story of killing Shaaban Ibn Khalid al-Hazly. It was rumored that Shaaban was gathering an army to wage war on Mohammed. Mohammed retaliated by ordering Abdullah Ibn Anis to kill Shaaban. Again, the would-be killer asked the prophet’s permission to lie. Mohammed agreed and then ordered the killer to lie by stating that he was a member of the Khazaa clan.
