Heaven - who has a chance?

coz ur self is a kid owise u wouldn't be interested here

But then u provoked her to do it again by insulting

U r getting boring repeating same things and no more fun to talk to

Well said. We need to focus more on the similarities, than the differences.

In addition, we need to learn to accommodate all others no matter what their beliefs.

Well said polkadots..

HI there, I am a protestant, In my religion WE believe that when we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior we are save and can enter the Kingdom of God.

I am not against with the muslims and i have great respect for them. Love your neighbor as you love your God.

Hello there Missteacher... I am not saying that only Christians can enter the heaven. What I am saying is base on what i believe in. (Who knows at the end we are all going into one place which is called "Heaven" but different entrance" :)

Have a nice day to you! :)

is Islam a religion? It should be because religion means "the way to God". It's an organization per se since you need to be converted (other called it "reversion") to be a Muslim (believer of Islam, right?).

My next question is, how can people who live before Prophet Mohammad's time be called Muslims when Islam was preached in the 5th century (not sure though).

BG said I am a Muslim since I believe in the ONENESS of God but I am not. I am a Christian since the Bible also teaches only ONE God and I believe Christ as the Savior since He is the Son of God who's final task is to come back and get all those people (children) of God who will be saved comes Judgment Day. Good afternoon everyone!

risk my salvation to a recorded or taped film or whatever in Youtube. You want clear and clean answer, make it personal!

for those who beliving in other religions means ur agreeing there r God or Gods other than Allah ( which is Shirk )

be Muslim when Islam was establish long after Him? When did Islam started?

Who administer Muslims nowadays? Why the different instructions from different Imams?

/-a-t-/ BG - you say "Flor if Isa PBUH is a muslim how ? how ? how ? can his followers be non muslims"

You believe that Jesus (Isa) was a Muslim and a prophet and Flor believes that Jesus is the Son of God and not Muslim.

Therefore you believe in two different men called Jesus...so you can't compare them to each other. So Flor is not following your Jesus that's why he is non-Muslim.

Although both religions believe there was a man called Jesus Christ. They don't believe in the same one. Muslims believe in Isa the prophet and Christians in Jesus the Son of God.

Wait, Let me tell you something why Islam is unique?

What makes Islam so unique?

- Prayers = Other religions also pray to their god.
- Charity = Other religions also recommend them to pay charity
- Pilgrimage= Other religions also perform pilgrimage from one city to other.
- Fasting = Other religions also fast, but not same as each other.

So, what makes Islam so unique?

The answer is = The first pillar of Islam and Iman.

~ To testify that

"There is no god but God worthy worship but Allah, and Muhammad is the messenger of God."

AND ALSO

"Believe in the oneness of Allah"

So, according to our believe, not all the muslim will go to Jannah.

The Prophet said:

"Whoever says there is no god but Allah enters Paradise even if he commits adultery and even if he steals (i.e. even if he commits great sins)."

Well, firstly, we do believe Jesus as our prophet, but he is clearly not son of god. That's why Islam is unique. Muslims believe "The Oneness Of Allah". That shows that he does not have any partners, no wives, no sons and no daughter. He is alone, the creator of everything.

Miss Teacher, do you really think that Jesus is son of god?
If you want to learn more about Islam, you can go to Fanar and there's a lot of information there at the ground floor.

Peace.

We have seen that Jesus (pbuh) greeted his disciples like a Muslim, by saying: “Peace be unto you”, when he appeared before them after his so-called ‘resurrection’ (John 20:19). Muslims use the same words to greet, (but in Arabic): Assalaamu Alaikum.

We have also seen that the utterances of Jesus have been supportive of and predicting about the rise of Muhammad (pbuh), and through him the belief Islam and the believing nation of Muslims, to which his followers are required to join.

In John 16: 12 & 13, Jesus says:

“I have yet many things to say unto you,

but you cannot bear them now.

Howbeit when he, the spirit of truth, is come,

He will guide you into all truth; ”
The common thing observed from the above verses is: Jesus (peace be upon him) prays to the Lord to save him from the anticipated persecution at the hands of the Jews; yet not as Jesus wishes but as the Lord wills. Do you realize what Jesus is stating at this moment? He subdues his wishes and submits himself to the will of Allah. In other words, Jesus declares his Islam, submission, at that moment.

As already explained in Article 1 in this series: A Muslim is one who has submitted to the will of Allah. Islam means submission (to the will of Allah), while it also means Peace. Thus, by declaring his submission to the will of Allah, Jesus declared himself to be a Muslim.

It was also mentioned in Chapter 2 that Jesus (pbuh), as also the other prophets before him, called themselves ‘Muslims’.

But, then, why their followers were not named as ‘Muslims’, too?

If the followers of the different other prophets were also to be called as ‘Muslims’, then there would have been confusion in distinguishing between the true Muslims (who believe in all the prophets) and the followers of other prophets (who believe in some prophets and disbelieve in the rest). Belief in all the messengers of Allah is a basic requirement to be called a Muslim. Allah tells the Muslims in Qur'an:

“ Say (O Muslims): We believe in Allah and that which is revealed unto us and that which was revealed unto Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the tribes, and that which Moses and Jesus received, and that which the Prophets received from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and unto Him we have surrendered. ” (2:136)

Thus, Jesus (pbuh) practiced Islam, i.e., Submission and he got Islam, i.e., Peace. How?

The Bible tells us in Luke 22:43

“ And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him.”

This is in appreciation of his act of Submission and as an answer to his prayers. The strength at that moment but what he needed most desperately was solace and assurance from the Lord that he would be saved from the arrest and wanted the freedom to perform the things he wanted to do as a Muslim.

So, Jesus the Muslim (peace be upon him) had prayed in ARABIC: “Yaa Ilaahi, Yaa Ilaahi, Lima Sabaqtanee? ”. Does the phrase sound familiar? Yes, this is what he asked the Lord at that moment. “O my Lord, O my Lord, Why have you advanced me (in my end)? ”

May God truly guide you and make easy your quest for the truth..Aameen! Don't be disheartened by the stuff you may hear (and read)along the way..be steadfast and let not arrogance and pride cloud your judgement. So far you seem to be doing pretty good so keep it up. And if I can be of any help to you in your studies do pm me anytime and I will do all I can.
Meanwhile bare in mind that Islam, like most religions before it, has it's share of deviants and extremists. in fact our Prophet himself stated that Islam will devide into more sects that even Christians and Jews! So not everyone who claims to be Muslims are upon the path of Muhammad(peace be upon him). Hence if anyone is to tell you something from Islam ask them for the source. And check it carefully. Anything that has no proof from the Quran and authentic Prophetic narations is best disregarded, even if it be of the most flowery of speach. Take care and wish ya all the best. xox
