Is Islam a divine religion?


Q1. Host: In light of the Bible, is Islam a divine religion? (2:35)

Answer

References
Dr. Labib: Well, according to the Bible, Islam is not a divine religion. And the reason I say that is because the God of the Bible is not the Allah of Islam. Secondly, the Quran contradicts in very plain words the commandments and the words of the Bible. Finally, Mohammed doesn't have the qualifications of a true prophet. The Bible is very clear in the book of Hebrews Chapter 1. "God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by His Son," if God has sent His son to speak to humanity, it's not reasonable, that He would send a slave after Jesus to be the "last prophet." If we go to the Bible and we want to apply Christianity and Islam, we can say emphatically that Islam is not a divine religion.

 

 

Bible: Hebrews 1:1-4

REFERENCES:

The Bible: Hebrews Chapter 1:1-4

1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:
4 Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.

It is truly sad when a person hasn't studied, in this case the Holy Bible, Torah and Qur'an yet makes statements that the God of the Holy Bible and Torah are the same as the god of the Qur'an. To claim the Holy Bible mentions "al-lah" by name shows how little they have studied. People that want to respond should at least research the topic at hand; al-lah is definitely not the One True God 'IAM' and Mohammad is not a prophet of God as shown by his being poisoned; even he [Mohammad] admitted it when he was poisoned saying I feel my Aorta has been cut (Hadith and Sari), after telling everyone if he was lying al-lah would cut his aorta (Qur'an, Hadith and Sari). Maybe we should ALL Read, Study, Learn and then spread the truth.

Muslim and Christianity have many more differences than similarities. God an Allah are not very similar at all. Sure, the religious texts of Christians and Muslims may mention some similar topics, but they are far from being similar.

Actually you could call Jesus birth, life and death opinion; because everyone here today has not directly seen it.

To your point 'mohammed' is not a Prophet of the One True God due:
1) He wasn't foretold of
2) He used the Pagan god at-lat (Female, 3 daughters, her black stone in Mecca is stone muslims touch as being al-lah's
3) He changed the 'words' of 'god' to suit his desires such as changing the words of not taking another's wife to you can if you are above him as he did to his nephew

the list goes on..
If anyone wants to know the truth of political islam read the books: hadith, sari, quran and the laws of sharia. You can't be a muslim without knowing the 1st three books by heart because you MUST emulate muhammad's life to be a 'good' muslim, not al-lah's life, but mohammad's

Name any other 'prophet' you MUST emulate to reach 'god'

The Muslim and Christianity religions are not all that different. Abraham, Jesus, and many others are referenced in both the Qur'an and the Bible. When looking in the old testament of the Bible, God mentions that start of Islam when Hagar and Ismael are cast out. These two religions actually believe and follow some of the same principles. I do not see how the God of the Bible is any different from Allah of the Qur'an. In fact, some of the first Bibles refer to God as Allah among different names. The only big difference in what the two religions believe that I have found is that Muslims view Jesus as a prophet and not the son of God

I would appreciate it if you would respect the writer. He cited his sources. Meanwhile, you did not even give any examples.

I love it when we try to understand each other and why we've made the choices we've made religiously. When a person is content in his own religion, a person needn't try to convert him; he doesn't want to be converted! Rather, let us learn from the richness our differences bring because those same differences reveal similarities!

Omar, can you mention one of those verses that heralded the coming of Mohammed? Going by every standard of prophethood, Mohammed was never qualified.

Yes there are. Here is one of them
Deuteronomy 18:20-22 - But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die. Indeed Mohamed was poisoned.
