It was in Medina where the rest of the Quran was revealed to him by Allah. Mohammed’s god, Allah, wanted to correct the Jewish Old Testament and the Christian’s New Testament (with Jesus as part of a Triune God.) His gentle and tolerant Meccan revelations were intended to bridge the gap between Jews and Christians, winning both over to Allah’s “correction.” It didn’t work. They were “revealed” to Mohammed in a cave called Hira near Mecca in 610 A.D. There are peaceful chapters or “Surahs” in the Quran. Obedience is a sacred trait of the Muslim faith. And most of the leaders, or Imams, proclaim an innocent and tolerant version of the Quran and Mohammed. The culture of Eastern Muslims is to rely on and believe what those in authority say. How can the majority of Muslims claim it is a peaceful religion? Because… most have not read the Quran, or the “Hadiths” that expound on the verses in the Quran and the life of the prophet Mohammed.

These are just some examples and pieces of evidence which clearly indicate the truth, unity, and universality of this great and beautiful religion of all prophets: Islam. They obey and follow the commandments that Jesus and the prophets taught and did, like believing in one true God, praying, prostrating, kneeling down in worship, fasting, giving alms and charity, saying“ if God wills” (Insha’Allah ), and using the greeting of Jesus and the prophets: “Peace be upon you ” (Asalamu `Alaikum). Muslims have faith in Allah (the one true God) and do good deeds. A Muslim means a person who submits his or her will to the one true God. Therefore, Muslims are true followers of Jesus and the prophets. Interestingly, James (4:7) also referred to the meaning of Islam- submission to God: Similarly, the Bible reports the words of Jesus’ brother, James, saying:įor as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead also. Indeed, those who have believed and done righteous deeds – they w ill have the Gardens of Paradise as a lodging. Confirming the true meaning of submission to Him and the reward prepared for those who believe and do good deeds, Allah points out in the Qur’an: Submission to the will of God is the essence of the message of Allah. We have to do the will of Allah through worshipping Him alone and keeping His commandments. However, Islam tells us that belief alone in God and His prophets is not enough to have peace of mind, happiness, and salvation! I testify that there is no god but Allah, and I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. Thus, the gateway to a happy, content, and eternal life is through believing in and uttering this testimony: We must also believe in all God’s true prophets (including Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him) and follow their true guidance and teachings. To sum up, Islam teaches us through its two main authentic sources: The Qur’an and the Prophetic sayings that we can attain peace of mind, happiness, and salvation, by knowing and believing in the One True God (Allah) willingly and wholeheartedly.

Key 8: Love for others what you love for yourself. Key 4: Believe in God’s prophets (including Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him). Islam teaches us that we can attain peace of mind, happiness, and salvation, by knowing and believing in the One True God willingly and wholeheartedly.
