Isa is Arabic for Jesus. His real name in Hebrew is Yahshuah. Allah (the
merciful one), is Arabic for Yah the God (Elohah) of Ibrahim. So I will use the
word Yahshuah for Isa. I have placed the initials s.a.a.s. behind the name of
Muhammad as a sign of respect "Salla Allahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam", which means :
may the blessing and the peace of Allah be upon him.
Yahshuah never said, he was Allah (the merciful one).
Yahshuah never said, Allah (the merciful one) is 2 or 3 but only one.
Yahshuah said, he was a man. He never said, he existed before he was born.
Yahshuah is in paradise and he is still a man. He is the first man to gain immortality and has been elevated to be a "spirit-man". He is not an angel, or a god, or part of a trinity.
True Christians do not worship Yahshuah, they only worship Yah (the only true God who is one and not three).
Many false Christians have come telling lies about Yahshuah and Allah
(the merciful one). They have tried to make Yahshuah a God and divide Allah (the
merciful one) into three. Those of the Catholic heresy have even made Mirium
higher than Allah (the merciful one) calling her the Mother of God. Some have
even suggested that she had sex with Allah (the merciful one) or the Holy
Spirit. No true Christian believes these lies. These are blasphemies.
However we do believe that as Allah (the merciful one) made Adam from
the dust, he created a human sperm and placed it by his spoken word into
Mirium's virgin womb and Yahshuah was born a true man, of no natural earth
father, but of Allah (the merciful one). He was the only man in history who was
born this way and can say Allah (the merciful one) is his father. This did not
give him any special power at birth and he was tempted by every sin known to
human kind, but he never sinned. At age 30 he received the full seven-fold
spirit of Allah (the merciful one) and became the savior of all who come to him.
I wish to give you some of the teachings of Yahshuah and compare them to
the teachings of Muhammad (s.a.a.s.)
Warfare
Yahshuah said, "By this shall all men know that you are my disciples if you have love." (John 13:35)
Yahshuah said, "You have heard that it has been said, you shall love your neighbor, but hate your enemies, but I say unto you, love your enemies." (Matthew 5:43-44)
Yahshuah said,; "Bless them that curse you. Do good to them that hate you. Pray for them that despitefully use and persecute you, that you may be children of your father in heaven." Matthew 5:44-45
Yahshuah said, "Put up your sword." (Matthew 26:52)
Muhammad(s.a.a.s.) said, "Warfare is
ordained for you" (The Cow 216)
Muhammad(s.a.a.s.) said, Anyone who turns back in battle "his habitation will be hell." (Spoils of war 16)
Muhammad(s.a.a.s.) said, those who refuse to go to war or contribute money "They destroy their souls and Allah (the eternal) knows that they are liars." ( Repentance 41:42)
Muhammad (s.a.a.s.) said, "Fight in the way of Allah (the eternal) against those who fight against you… And slay them wherever ye find them, and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out, for persecution is worse than slaughter.." (The Cow 190-191).
Muhammad (s.a.a.s.) said, do not feel guilty about slaughter for you are not doing the killing "Ye Muslims slew them not, Allah (the eternal) slew them." (The Spoils of War 17).
Muhammad (s.a.a.s.) said, you are not killing humans only beasts "Lo the worst beasts in Allah (the eternal one)'s sight are the ungrateful who refuse to believe." (Spoils of War 17).
Muhammad (s.a.a.s.) said, "fight until
all religion is for Allah (the eternal)." (The Cow 193)
Muhammad
(s.a.a.s.) said, "Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. But it is
possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you." 2:216
Justice
Yahshuah said, he did not come to establish
Justice. He said "Who appointed me as a Judge over you?"
"Judge not, lest you be judged." "Condemn not, lest you be
condemned." Let he who is without sin cast the first stone." Why do
you focus on the wood chip in your neighbor's eye, when you have a tree sticking
out of your own eye? Justice demands an eye for an eye and a tooth
for a tooth. Yahshuah said "You have heard that it has been said "an eye for an
eye and a tooth for a tooth", but I say unto you do not resist evil people. If
they strike you on one cheek offer them the other. If they sue you in
court for you coat, let them have your cloak too. If they enslave you for
one mile, go with them two." Yahshuah did not come to establish justice in
this evil world, but to call us to come home. He said Satan is the ruler of this
world. Whoever seeks a long, happy, prosperous life is one who loves
Satan's world. Unless you hate your life in this perpetually unjust world, you
will never reach paradise. Believers are not called to improve Satan's world, or
reform it, but to forsake it. "Unless you hate your
(psyche) life in this world you will not posses (Zoe ) eternal
life." (John
12:25)
Muhammad (s.a.a.s.)
said,
"O ye who
believe! Stand out firmly for justice, as witnesses to Allah, even as against
yourselves, or your parents, or your kin, and whether it be (against) rich or
poor: for Allah can best protect both. Follow not the lusts (of your hearts),
lest ye swerve, and if ye distort (justice) or decline to do justice,
verily Allah is well-acquainted
with all that ye do." [An-Nisa
4:35]
"And fight them on until there is no more tumult or
oppression, and there prevail justice and faith in Allah altogether and everywhere." (Chapter 8 Verse
9)
Mercy
Yahshuah said, "Blessed are the merciful" (Matthew 5:7)
Muhammad (s.a.a.s.) said, "when you have the upper hand show no mercy
"do not falter, or cry for peace." ( Muhammad 35)
Meekness
Yahshuah said, "Blessed are the meek." (Matthew 5:5)
Muhammad (s.a.a.s.) said, "let the unbelievers find harshness in
you." (Repentance 123)
Equality of the Sexes
Yahshuah elevated women. Women disciples traveled with his group. He chose a woman to tell his apostles of his resurrection.
Muhammad (s.a.a.s.) said, Men are one degree superior to women (The
Cow 228)
How to Treat a Wife
Yahshuah did not
have a wife and recommended a single life, but his followers wrote,
"husbands are to love
their wives as their own body". (Ephesians
5:28)
Muhammad
(s.a.a.s.) said, that menstruation is an illness (The Cow 222) and rebellious
wives are to be beaten "banish
them to beds apart and scourge them." (Women 34).
How Many Wives Can One Man Have?
Yahshuah said, Marriage is between only one man and one woman. (Mt. 19:4) " Have ye not read, that he who made them, at the beginning made them male and female, And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they two shall be one flesh?"
Adultery
Yahshuah offered forgiveness not punishment ( see John 8:1-11). He said, "let he who is without sin, cast the first stone."
Muhammad (s.a.a.s.) said, "the adulterer and adulteress scourge ye
each of them with an hundred stripes. And let not pity for the two of them hold
you from obedience to Allah (the eternal) and the last day. And let a party of
believers witness the punishment. (Light 2). He said, there was to be no
restoration, they were free however after the whipping to marry another
adulterer, but not a believer. (Light 3)
Divorce
Yahshuah said, "no divorce"(Matthew 5:32)
Muhammad (s.a.a.s.) said, divorce may be granted anytime for sexual
unfaithfulness (Divorce 1)
Remarriage after Divorce
Yahshuah said,. That divorced people are not free to remarry while their first mate is alive . "What Allah has joined together let no one put asunder." (Mt. 19:6)
Muhammad (s.a.a.s.) said, a divorced woman was free to find another
husband (The Cow 232).
Slavery
Yahshuah said, "The spirit of the Lord is upon me he has sent me to set the slaves free." (Lk. 4:18)
Muhammad said,
33:50 "Prophet, We have made lawful
to you the wives to whom you have granted dowries and the slave girls whom
God has given you as booty." There are 29 verses in the Qu'ran approving
slavery. Muslim nations hold the record for nations that practiced
slavery the longest and are the only nations today that still practice this
barbaric, savage custom. They teach that slaves are inferior
humans
, and if you kill a slave,
it
is not murder, your punishment is a fine. Muslims are allowed to
force slave women captured in war to marry
them
even if the women are already married.
Death Penalty for Serious
Crimes
Yahshuah taught the elimination of the Death penalty for crimes (John 8:1-11) He said, "Blessed are the merciful for they shall obtain mercy." (Matthew 5:7) "Be merciful as your Father (Allah (the merciful one)) is also merciful. Judge not and you shall not be judged. Condemn not and you shall not be condemned; forgive and you will be forgiven." (Luke 6:36-38).
Muhammad (s.a.a.s.) said, certain criminals should be put to death;
especially anyone who opposed him or the Qu'ran "The punishment of those who
wage war against Allah (the eternal) and His messenger and strive to make
mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified or
their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides." (The Table
Spread 33)
Thieves
Yahshuah said, "Give to every man that asks of thee; and of him that steals thy goods ask them not again. (Luk 6:30)
Muhammad (s.a.a.s.) said, "As for the thief, both male and female , cut off their hands." (The Tablespread 38)
Free Will
Yahshuah taught
complete free will. Re said Repent and believe the Gospel. If there was no free
will no one could choose to repent. He also said he was laying down his life and no one was taking it from him but
it was of his own free will (John 10:18) Yahshuah said, "If you love me, keep
my commandments. " You are free to choose to obey or disobey. The choice is yours. He said,
"whoever keeps my sayings, will never see death."
Muhammad (s.a.a.s.) said, "Allah (the eternal)
sends astray whom he will and whom he will he guides." (The Cloaked One 31).
How to Treat Others
Yahshuah said, "Do unto others as you would have them to do unto you." (Mt. 7:12)
Muhammad (s.a.a.s.) said, "attack him in like manner as he attacked
you." (The Cow 194) "Lie in wait in ambush for them." (Repentance 5)
Wealth
Yahshuah said,; "beware of the deceitfulness of riches." (Matthew 13.22)"Woe unto you that are rich." (Luke 6:20)
Muhammad (s.a.a.s.) said, "It is no sin for you that you seek wealth
from the Lord." (The Cow 198).
Swearing Oaths
Yahshuah said, "never swear an oath." (Matthew 5:34)
Muhammad (s.a.a.s.) swore many times in the Qu'ran. "O I swear by the
afterglow of sunset, and by the night and all that it enshrouds, and by the moon
when she is at the full." (The Sundering 16), "Nay I swear by this city" (The
City 1), "Nay I swear by the resurrection; nay I swear by the accusing soul that
this scripture is true" (The Rising of the Dead 1 & 2).
Revenge
Yahshuah said, revenge belongs only to Allah (the
merciful one) alone. "Vengeance is mine I will repay says Allah (the merciful
one)." (Romans 12:19)
Muhammad
(s.a.a.s.) said, "heirs may seek revenge." (The Children of Israel 33)
Yahshuah's
Death
Yahshuah said, "Except a grain of wheat falls into the
ground and dies, it abides alone; but if it dies, it brings forth
many grains of wheat." (John 12:24). He said, "Therefore my father loves me,
because I lay down my life, that I might take it up again. No man takes it
from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have the power to lay it
down and take it up again." (John 10:18) After his resurrection he appeared
to his disciples and upbraided them for being so slow to understand. He
said every prophecy in the Psalms, the Torah and the writings of
the Prophets saying how the Messiah must suffer and die had to be
fulfilled.
Yahshuah said to them, "Thus it is written, and thus it behooved Christ to
suffer, and to rise from
the dead the third day."
Muhammad (s.a.a.s.) said, "They slew him not, nor crucified him, but
it appeared so unto them." (Women
157-158)
Who is the Father of
Yahshuah?
Yahshuah said, "If you do not believe I am the son of Allah you will die in
your sins." (John
8:24)
Muhammad (s.a.a.s.) said, in Surah
019:20-22, "Mirium said, " How can I have a son seeing that no man
has touched me. I am chaste?" The angel replied, "It will come to pass for Allah
says "It is easy for me." So she conceived and withdrew herself to a
remote place."
Muhammad affirms that no man was Yahshuah's Father. So if
no man was his father, the only choice left is
Allah. He said "so be it",and it was so.
A Happy
Life?
Yahshuah said: if you follow me,"the whole world will hate you." (Mt. 10:22)
"You will be persecuted."
Your worst enemies will be your own relatives (Mt.
10:36).
Muhammad (s.a.a.s.) said," Whoever does good whether male
or female and he is a believer, We will
most
certainly make him live a happy life." (An-Nahl
16:97)
This concludes my comparison of the words of Yahshuah and those of Muhammad
(s.a.a.s.). I will leave you with a parting thought.
