a message about Islam---for the sake of knowledge-- it is a really interesting religion, even if you don't agree with it.. It's a way of life, not just a religion. Basic belief is that there is one God, that he sent us to earth to test us so that the people who sincerely worshipped him could go to heaven... just like anything in this life (a job, friend, money, grade) has to be earned, heaven...the most costly thing of all, must be earned.

In Islam there are practical guidelines for every aspect of life. God (in Arabic language God is called Allah)never sent us on Earth without purpose. There is a purpose and a goal and we must realize God is watching us every minute and he did not create this universe in vain, he knows exactly what we are doing, saying and we will be asked about everything before we enter either heaven or hell. Islam is the completion of Judaism and Christianity. Each religion came with a Prophet and each religion was for its specific time and place.

The Quran (Muslim holy book) teaches that each religion had the same message : that there is only one God and only He is worthy of worship, but people changed God's message, that is why more than one Prophet had to come and reteach the religion. Islam has the same message of Jesus of Moses of Noah of Joseph of Adam, to believe in one God. The Quran is the last and final book of God, it has been preserved in its exact original form and language. If you study history and research the preservation of it, you will find that this is true. No historian or scientist refutes this. No other holy book was preserved in such a way.

God says in the Quran that it will be preserved till the end of time. No other religion is so comprehensive in content. Islam teaches people how to live every aspect of their lives, not just one or two. It is a practical religion that teaches people how to live life in the best way possible, without displeasing God. Most people pass life these days with no real purpose. No real goal. Many think life was made ONLY to have fun. But if this is the case, how can heaven just fall into their laps, without any real effort? Islam teaches people to balance themselves between this life and the hereafter (heaven/hell). Whatever you do in this life must be good because it will help you earn a either good, or bad, hereafter. Islam teaches people how to balance the two and enjoy life within the guidelines God gave us.

The word Islam comes from the word "Peace" and teaches people how to live life peacefully. It is forbidden in Islam to hurt anyone, regardless of religon, faith, etc. It teaches people to be kind to their parents and reminds them of how they took care of children when they were young and helpless, it teaches people to treat kin and neighbor well, to "love for your brother what you love for yourself" , it teaches people to educate themselves and become leaders of society, it teaches people what IS goodness, it teaches people about everything (even small things, like the best way to eat and the best way to sleep and best way to use the restroom!), it teaches most importantly , justice to all people. It is completely in sync with science and has many miracles in it. It speaks of how the spermdrop and egg join to form a baby, how mountains keep the earths balance, about space and its components, about the contents of the earths crust, and many many other miracles that were discovered to be true centuries after they appeared in the Quran.

If you read books by "Ahmed Deedat", he has done thorough research to broaden your perspective and question "truths" that people tend to believe without doubt. A GReat book is called "The Bible, The Qur'an, and Science" By Maurice Bucaille -- its written by a man who was not Muslim when he wrote it (it is available online, i may be able to send u the link if u'd like).

Many people claim to be Muslims but they do evil and make the religion of Islam look bad. They are not considered Muslims, since a Muslim is one who follows the religion of Islam and has "submitted to God" (that is another meaning of the word Islam-- submission to God.) If you read about Islam, you will find its message sublime. The message of Islam, has a clear purpose, no contradictions. To follow it is simple and its logic is impeccable. It teaches people how to live life peacefully. The Quran is, as mentioned earlier, an unchanged book. It is still in its original language and form and is memorized by people of all races and backgrounds. It is not lost in translation. All Muslims strive to learn Arabic as it will help them in understanding the word of God. They read translations, but very importantly, they realize that the background of a verse must be understood before jumping to conclusions. By reading the background, you know what a verse is really saying and in what context, reference, and circumstance. Just give it a chance, if it does not seem logical (make sense) to you---drop it. You never know what you might find. Here is a link about why Muslims believe the Quran is authentic and the unchanged final message of God:

Btw…you don’t have to reply to this message. And I am not asking anyone to change their religion.. this is only an invite to learn about Islam for the sake of knowledge and to clear misconceptions :)

Hope all is well with you...

Kat....thank you for taking the time to drop this here. I have a major in foreign studies and know extensively about Islamic / muslim culture. I curently am signing up for classed to undgo taking on the Arabic language - im excited. But have you ever considered the man of Yeshua - of Jesus? I believe GOd sent His only son. The cross and the crucifiction would not have been necessary if we humans could earn or pay our way into the afterlife.......both are beautiful views - yours and mine. God bless my friend.

I read your topic on the forum and I just wanted to holler at your page!
