I want to ask you why Islam ???
What is so great about Islam ??

What does Islam have that Christians Don't

فرددت عليه قائلا : ( واعذروني على الإطالة في الرد ) :



thanx 4 accepting

well, it's a big big question ..

Islam is much more than a formal religion: it is an integral way of life.In many ways it is a more a determining factor in the experience of its followers than any other world religion. The Muslim ("One who submits") lives face to face with God at all times and will introduce no separation between his life and his religion, his politics and his faith. With its strong emphasis on the brotherhood of men cooperating to fulfill the will of God. and that's why he created us , to worship him and to construct the earth ..

you know .. story of Adam and Eve states the major difference between Islam and Christianity. and away from the differences in events of the story in both religions, the basic concept or conclusion is the major difference ..

both religions state that Adam has sinned ..

Christianity states that as a result of his sin, all his breed are sinners .. even the newborn child is born sinner and this is injustice as u see .. as why am I punished for a sin I didn't commit ? is this the justice of the all-just god ?!!

but in Islam, immediately after Adam has sinned, he regretted and repented to God and God has accepted his repentance .. ya he took him out of the paradise and put him on earth but he promised him and all of his breed and generations that if they did good and obeyed him during their life on earth, they would return back to the paradise again and forever .

so what about those who make sins and do bad in their life ?
it's all up to them, if they regret their bad actions and return to God, truly he will forgive them .. that's it .. it's that simple .. it doesn't have to be blood shedding as Pole states ..

another thing in Christianity that makes your head goes off .. how in god's name the great god, the master of the universe could sacrifice himself for a sin made by his creation ?! wouldn't it be easy if he just forgave it .. isn't he able to forgive them ?

but in Islam, as I said , whatever your sins were, and if they are like mountains, they could be all forgiven if u just regret and turned back to God's way ..

God states in Qur'an that : "Who receiveth guidance, receiveth it for his own benefit: who goeth astray doth so to his own loss: No bearer of burdens can bear the burden of another: nor would We visit with Our Wrath until We had sent an messenger (to give warning)" ( 017:015 )

and also says : " Every soul will be (held) in pledge for its deeds " ( 074:038 )
and also : " Namely, that no bearer of burdens can bear the burden of another; That man can have nothing but what he strives for; That (the fruit of) his striving will soon come in sight: Then will he be rewarded with a reward complete " ( 053:038-041)
and also : " Whoever works righteousness benefits his own soul; whoever works evil, it is against his own soul: nor is thy Lord ever unjust (in the least) to His Servants " ( 041:046 )


so, which way seems more logical ? and which way harmonizes with the justice of god ?

===================================

this was a fast overview on the sight of both religions to the concept of the Original sin just to show u the logical concept of Islam ..

I didn't talk about the corrupting in the resources of Christianity e.g the bible and the preserving of Islamic ones out of corruption and how both was accomplished ..

but if u decided to take an overview on the bible about what I talked about in this message u might get to this fact .. and the fact that the whole Christianity is actually the teachings and rubrics of Pole and has nothjing to do with Jesus .. as u can see that even in bible it's stated for several times that :

- GEN-4-6,7:
And the LORD said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen?
If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door

- DEU-24-16: The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin.

- JER-31-29,30: In those days they shall say no more, The fathers have eaten a sour grape, and the children's teeth are set on edge.
But every one shall die for his own iniquity: every man that eateth the sour grape, his teeth shall be set on edge.

- EZE-18-1:9: The word of the LORD came unto me again, saying,
What mean ye, that ye use this proverb concerning the land of Israel, saying, The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children's teeth are set on edge?
As I live, saith the Lord GOD, ye shall not have occasion any more to use this proverb in Israel.
Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.
But if a man be just, and do that which is lawful and right,
And hath not eaten upon the mountains, neither hath lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, neither hath defiled his neighbour's wife, neither hath come near to a menstruous woman,
And hath not oppressed any, but hath restored to the debtor his pledge, hath spoiled none by violence, hath given his bread to the hungry, and hath covered the naked with a garment;
He that hath not given forth upon usury, neither hath taken any increase, that hath withdrawn his hand from iniquity, hath executed true judgment between man and man,
Hath walked in my statutes, and hath kept my judgments, to deal truly; he is just, he shall surely live, saith the Lord GOD.

- EZE-18-19,20: Yet say ye, Why? doth not the son bear the iniquity of the father? When the son hath done that which is lawful and right, and hath kept all my statutes, and hath done them, he shall surely live.
The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.

- EZE-18-21:23: But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die.
All his transgressions that he hath committed, they shall not be mentioned unto him: in his righteousness that he hath done he shall live.
Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord GOD: and not that he should return from his ways, and live?

did u see any blood shedding here ?? it only came out of Pole .. just Pole ..

peace ..
