අනේ සූකරයා තොගේ මන්ද බුද්ධික කතා වලට කටින් නෙවෙයි වෙන තැන්වලින් තමයි අපිට හිනා යන්නේ
"I do not want to convert anyone I just want to free their minds giving them a true choice"
උඹ රෙදි ඇදගෙනද ඉන්නේ බලපන් කණ්ණාඩියක් ඉස්සරහට ගිහින්.
මිත්යාදෘෂ්ඨික Y2K වෙත, Actually you do not qualify for writing something like this. 
If you did understand (or were much less ignorant to be able to understand) The Buddha or The Buddha's teachings, you wouldn't have become another blind believer of an almighty God that doesn't exist! 
As I know, you became Christian because you witnessed a miracle at the Church? 
A miracle may or may not have happened, I don't reject them. But is that the reason? shame 
correct me if I'm wrong. Whatever reason that was for you to become Christian, and if you had a choice, you made the wrong wrong choice.
I must say for what I know about you, this is surely you trying to prove Christianity is better than becoming a Buddhist or may be trying to prove Jesus greater than The Buddha. If that's what you've done here, I must say unsuccessful! (not to forget the downward Karma you've got done) No ascetic, no deva/god/deity, no mara or any Brahma could ever prove the teachings of The Buddha to be wrong or anyone else's to be better! Who are you among these? I'm sure not any better

Brother we are living in a world of Democratic I should have no qualification to express my views by the way what do you mean by qualification?මිත්යාදෘෂ්ඨික Y2K වෙත, Actually you do not qualify for writing something like this.
this very is subjective statement that I can just ignore
Well how do you know it for sure? how do you define blind faith?
brother I know Jesus's teachings I have experience it in my own life then you start realised this is the truth I think same goes to you
Buddha might have done miracles, Jesus might have done many miracles but we never seen it but we've heard about it what will remain is their teachings trough their teachings we can say he is a holy
Greatest Miracle is myself , Greatest miracle is his LOVE
No, I've experinced the presence of Al mighty Jesus by the power of the Holy spirit Jesus promised us moreover I was able understand his love
B'live me if you really seek him you shall find
actually we do not need any miracle brother once you understand true Love you will be ablt to understand what Jesus has done to us then his holy spirit is guide you to the eternal truth as he promised us life itself is a miracle we do not want any miracle but if you really need it there were many including his ressurection
But is that the reason? shame
Shame for what I am the happiest person to know him , the pure reason is act of love the mightest act of god to save us from the enternal damnation
No this is not I want you to tell convey you
We Christian B'live even evey human beings are very different to one another so
Jesus & Buddha also showed us two different path. problem is you can insult Jesus our Lord without any problem but I can not question about your so called great religion with full of compassion ? (I will never insult like you guys)
anyone can ask question from us it is my duty to answer it
If that's what you've done here, I must say unsuccessful! (not to forget the downward Karma you've got done) No ascetic, no deva/god/deity, no mara or any Brahma could ever prove the teachings of The Buddha to be wrong or anyone else's to be better! Who are you among these? I'm sure not any better
I am giving you another option so it is upto you to decide which is best one for you , but you should remember no matter what you choose you are the one who take the resposible of your decision
My intention is to spead this messege to the whole world specially in Sri Lanka but not forcefully do anything to convert you guys
I do bielive once I came to know that there is a God almighty and Jesus is son of true living God it is my duty to give you the messege
but it is upto you to either ignore it or consider it many people think that I belongs to some misernery organization but I strongly disagreed with that idea
I am doing this purely because if we do not tell another how they will know abt it ?
"He who listens to you listens to me; he who rejects you rejects me; but he who rejects me rejects him who sent me." Luke 10:16
According to this statement we should be the witness because we knew him but it is upto you to decide
Lastly he spoke trough his son therefore no one will come after him he will come again with all his glory to judge the world
Don't ever think that I am trying to say someone is greater i am giving you another option then only you have a choice pls try to understand it
Even though you called me "මිත්යාදෘෂ්ඨික " I won't call you like that because you have the capacity to understand the truth I do b;live eveyone is having that capacity
Jesus taught us not to talk bad to my brother inspead I call you my friend or brother just like Jesus call us
"But I say, if you are even angry with someone, you are subject to judgment! If you call someone an idiot, you are in danger of being brought before the court. And if you curse someone, you are in danger of the fires of hell." Matthew 5:22
I am sure Buddha might have said the same thing but due to some odd reason you do not follow it
Ok brother we have two different opinion abt life two different approach abt life but yet we came in one source therefore you are my brother no matter how hard you want to kill me
I am giving you another option
I know it will be another option to you but when it comes to the truth it is the only true option there is no other option
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me" John 14:6
anyway may god bless you son eventhough you hate me I don't hate you
"Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love; this is the eternal rule." Buddha

Revealed Scriptures
Revelation is the medium by which Allah claims to have communicated his words to his prophets so that they may inform the people of his will, what he wants from them and what they must do for him in order to be saved from eternal damnation.
The Torah/Old Testament
Main Article: Taurat
The Qur'an talks of the Taurat/Tawrah ( توراة ) referring to the Torah - the first five books of the Jewish Bible; found in the Old Testament of the Christian Bible. Some Muslims and scholars believe it refers to the entire Old Testament, but this view is not widely held.
The Psalms
Main Article: Zabur
The Zabur mentioned in the Qur'an refers to the Psalms of the Old Testament. The Qur'an asserts that the Zabur is one of the 3 Previous Revelations of Allah. Although they are only mentioned three times in the Qur'an, Allah tells us that he revealed them to David.
The New Testament/Four Gospels
Main Article: Injil
The Qur'an talks of the Injil (إنجيل) referring to the New Testament of the Bible (usually the four Gospels), which it claims was given to Jesus, rather than being written by his followers.
The Qur'an
Main Article: Qur'an, See also: Al-Fatiha
The Qur'ān (القرآن) is the central religious text of Islam. Muslims believe the Qur'an to be the book of divine guidance and direction for mankind. The best-known chapter of the Qur'an is al-Fatiha ‘The Opening’. This surah is recited as part of all the mandatory daily prayers and repeated within each prayer. A faithful Muslim who said all their prayers would recite this surah at least seventeen times a day, and over five thousand times a year. The hadith literature make negative references to the Jews and Christians in connection with this surah. Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan and Dr. Muhammad Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali incorporate this within their translation. Ayah 6-7 thus reads; "Guide us to the Straight Way. The Way of those on whom You have bestowed Your Grace, not (the way) of those who earned Your Anger (such as the Jews), nor of those who went astray (such as the Christians)."
It is remarkable that the daily prayers of every Muslim, part of the core of Islam, include a rejection of Christians and Jews as misguided and objects of Allah’s wrath.
The incompatibility of Islam with Previous Revelations
Does Qur'an 2:79 prove corruption of the previous scriptures?
Main Articles: Corruption of Previous Scriptures and Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars:Corruption of Previous Scriptures
It is a common belief among Muslims that the Qur'an states that the previous scriptures (the Taurat and Injil) have been physically corrupted by those who were charged with safeguarding it (the Jews and Christians). Thus, the Qur'an is the 'return' to the true message of the God of the Bible. When asked to provide evidence that the Qur'an says the previous scriptures have been corrupted, Muslims will proudly present verse 2:79 as evidence.
Shakir: Woe, then, to those who write the book with their hands and then say: This is from Allah, so that they may take for it a small price; therefore woe to them for what their hands have written and woe to them for what they earn.
Qur'an 2:79
This article will examine What the Qur'an really says about the Taurat and Injil; and examine verse 2:79 in its own context, as well as against the aforementioned verses to see if the belief of physical scriptural corruption is valid.
Contradictions in Qur'anic Christology
Main Article: Contradictions in Qur'anic Christology
There are already many articles on Wiki-Islam about contradictions and errors in the Qur'an concerning logic, history, mathematics, cosmology and many more subjects. In this article, however, we would like to describe a quite different kind of weakness of the Qur'an which we would like to refer to as lack of theological professionalism. Even if we overlook the errors in the Qur'an, it is still surprising that the author of this holy book in some cases looks like somebody who cannot make the right use of quotations from Christian literature for his own argumentation. We want to show this by the example of the Christology in the Qur'an.
In this approach, the Qur'an, the Bible and any other text mentioned are regarded as texts written by human beings, not by God. Also, our intention is not to decide which of the opinions concerning the nature of Jesus are true or untrue. Instead we would like to focus on the quality of the arguments rendered in the Qur'an. From this viewpoint, we would like to elaborate the Christological opinions of the Qur'an compared to the Bible and show how they are expressed.
Parallelism Between the Qur'an and Judeo-Christian Scriptures
Main Article: Parallelism Between the Qur'an and Judeo-Christian Scriptures
The similarities between the Qur'an and previous scriptures has been noted since the advent of Islam. However, the Judeo-Christian tales and their Qur'anic counterparts do not always match. There are three explanations for this:
The original Judeo-Christian scriptures have been corrupted (as Muslims like to claim).
Muhammad imperfectly borrowed from the Judeo-Christian scriptures.
The Qur'an has been corrupted.
It is an epistemological matter as to which of the three is correct. The Qur'an’s assertion that the Judeo-Christian scriptures have been corrupted is mere accusation devoid of evidence. This thirteen-page long in-depth study looks at the following parallelisms between the Qur'an and Judeo-Christian Scriptures:
Talking baby Jesus
Mary daughter of Amran & sister of Aaron
Sanhedrin 37a
the raven and the burial of Abel
Mary, Jesus and the Trinity
Jesus and the clay birds
Mary’s upbringing & her relationship with Zachariah
Mary, Jesus & the palm tree
Satan’s refusal to prostrate to Adam
the Queen of Sheba
the wealth of Korah
and Abraham & the idols.
The People of the Book: Do they qualify as believers or disbelievers?
Main Articles: Kafir and The People of the Book: Do they qualify as believers or disbelievers?
This is a fundamentally important question in Islam. If the People of the Book are indeed believers, then Islam is not necessary to avoid eternal torment in hell. However, if the People of the Book are disbelievers, then Allah has a lot to answer for, namely why did he allow for so many people to be led astray by books they themselves did not corrupt? A typical Islamic response would be: "It is a test." But if that's the case, why would any omniscient (all-knowing) being require a test to know the hearts of men? And why create an eternal torture chamber to punish those humans who failed the test when he knew they were going to fail before he even created them? Allah is therefore either a sadist or he is ignorant.
Biblical and Islamic Figures God
Main Articles: Hubal, Allah the Best Deceiver and Allah the Polytheist
According to Islam, Allāh is the Creator of the Universe. Allah does not mean 'God' but rather 'the God' [2] and is thus one of the remnants of Islam's polytheistic origins. In the pre-Islamic era, Allah was the supreme creator god of the Arabs, a moon god who lived in a rock located in the Ka'aba. [2] Yet he was still only one god among the many others they believed in.[3] The goddesses; Allāt (the feminine form of “Allah”, meaning 'the goddess' ),[4] Manat, and al-Uzza were Allah's daughters.[2]
Jesus Christ
Main Articles: Isa al-Masih and Allah, His Word, and 'Isa
In Islam, Isa al-Masih (عيسى المسي usually translated as Jesus Christ) is not believed to be the Son of God, but simply a 'messenger', inferior in status to Muhammad. While Muslims will claim they "love Jesus", it is clearly evident that they do not love Yasū‘ (يسوع the actual Arabic term for Jesus, which is used by Arab Christians),[5] but love the Islamic Isa who, when studied, shares little in common with the founder of Christianity.
The Virgin Mary
Main Article: Allah: I sent Jibreel to blow into Mary's Vagina
The Qur'anic verses 21:91 and 66:12 in conjunction with the tafsir's, tell us the angel Jibreel was sent to breathe Allah's spirit into Maryam's (مريم Mary's) vagina. Qur'an 5:116 tells us the Trinity consists of three separate gods, which are the Father (God), the Mother (Virgin Mary) and the Son (Jesus), and due to this abysmal ignorance of the Trinity doctrine, Muslims consider all Trinitarian Christians to be polytheists. Also according to Muhammad, Mary will be one of his wives in paradise.
Muhammad said, “In heaven, Mary mother of Jesus, will be one of my wives.”
al-Siyuti (6/395)
"The Messenger of God ... said, ‘God married me in paradise to Mary the daughter of 'Imran and to the wife of Pharaoh and the sister of Moses.’" [6]
Tabarani
The Angel Gabriel
Main Articles: Angel Jibreel and Gabriel and the Holy Spirit
According to Islamic scriptures, Jibreel (جبريل Gabriel) is the angel who first appeared to Muhammad in the cave of Hijra and taught Muhammad the Qur'an. The initial experience frightened Muhammad, and originally thinking he was possessed by a demon, the Islamic prophet became suicidal.
Under Islamic Rule Dhimmitude
Main Articles: Qur'an, Hadith and Scholarshimmitude and Dhimmitude
The term Dhimmitude is derived from Dhimmi, which means a non-Muslim living in an Islamic country. Robert Spencer has defined it as "the status that Islamic law, the Sharia, mandates for non-Muslims, primarily Jews and Christians". According to orthodox Islamic law, those who are qualified for the second-class Dhimmi status within the Muslim society are the free (i.e non-slave) Christians, Jews, and Zoroastrians, who agree to pay the jizyah. Adherents of other religions, as well as those without religion, are asked to convert to Islam; if they refuse, they are to be forced to convert.
Jizyah Tax
Main Articles: Jizyah and Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars
:Jizya
Summon the people to God; those who respond to your call, accept it from them, but those who refuse must pay the poll tax out of humiliation and lowliness. If they refuse this, it is the sword without leniency. Fear God with regard to what you have been entrusted.[7]
Umar ibn al-Khattab during the conquest of al-Basrah (636 CE)
According to the Qur'an and hadith, Jizyah or jizya (جزْي) is the extra tax imposed on non-Muslims (Dhimmis) who live under Muslim rule. It is paid as a sign of submission and gives dhimmis some legal protection in return. Under dhimmitude (the status that Islamic law, the Sharia, mandates for non-Muslims) Dhimmis usually are not allowed to carry arms to protect themselves, serve in the army or government, display symbols of their faith, build or repair places of worship etc. If the conquered do not wish to pay or convert, their fate may very well be slavery (under which, rape is permitted) or (as evidenced in the quotes above) death.
Forced Conversion
Main Article: Forced Conversion
This article simply provides information about the Islamic use of forced conversion and forced submission or expulsion as evidenced by Islamic scripture and historical and contemporary writings. For example, According to the respected scholar, Sayyid Abul Ala Maududi, jihad should be waged against Jews and Christians because they are guilty of committing shirk (one of the gravest sins in Islam), their beliefs about the Day of Judgement are not Islamic, and they do not follow the laws of Islam revealed to Muhammad.[8]
The Destruction of Non-Muslim Worship Places
Main Article: List of Worship Places Converted or Destroyed by Muslims
Throughout history, Muslims have destroyed worship places (churches, synagogues, temples) of other religions or converted them into mosques. In fact, the Ka'aba (the holiest shrine in Islam) was originally a pagan place of worship, used by the polytheist Arabs before Muhammad subsequently removed and destroyed everything considered idolatrous.
The Pact of Umar
Main Articles: A Brief Analysis of the Pact of Umar and The Pact of Umar
Much has been said of the Pact of Umar,[9] and much of it distinctly positive. Its non-Muslim admirers gleefully compare its contents to the treatment of religious minorities in Medieval Europe, while ignoring its influence and conformity with Islamic scriptural sources which still govern the treatment of minorities in the East today. Some non-Muslim scholars of early Islam doubt the pact's authenticity, highlighting the fact that the Islamic traditions surrounding the writing of the pact are a few hundred years removed from the actual events described, and that no contemporary sources refers to it at all. Sophronius' (560 - 638 AD) authentic extant writings also refer to the Muslim conquerors in a very negative way, putting further doubts on the Muslim recollections of events.[10] Nevertheless, this article will accept its authenticity and analyse the rights and limitations placed on the Syrians, to see just how free non-Muslims really were under the Rightly-guided Caliph.
The Genocide of Banu Qurayza
Main Articles: The Genocide of Banu Qurayza and Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars:Banu Qurayza
Hijra year 5 (627 AD), Almost nine hundred Jews (including children) of a Medinan tribe named Banu Qurayza were massacred by Muslims in one day. Muhammad was the lead spectator of this atrocious butchery which began early in the day, ending in torchlight. Those who escaped death were taken captive by Muslims and sold in slave markets. This genocide is known in history as the Banu Qurayza incident.
Miscellaneous Articles
Are Judaism and Christianity as Violent as Islam?
Main Article: Are Judaism and Christianity as Violent as Islam?
"There is far more violence in the Bible than in the Qur'an; the idea that Islam imposed itself by the sword is a Western fiction, fabricated during the time of the crusades when, in fact, it was Western Christians who were fighting brutal holy wars against Islam."[11] So announces former nun and self-professed "freelance monotheist," Karen Armstrong. This quote sums up the single most influential argument currently serving to deflect the accusation that Islam is inherently violent and intolerant: All monotheistic religions, proponents of such an argument say, and not just Islam, have their fair share of violent and intolerant scriptures, as well as bloody histories. Thus, whenever Islam's sacred scriptures—the Qur'an first, followed by the reports on the words and deeds of Muhammad (the Hadith)— are highlighted as demonstrating the religion's innate bellicosity, the immediate rejoinder is that other scriptures, specifically those of Judeo-Christianity, are as riddled with violent passages.
But is that really the case? Does Hebrew violence in the ancient era, and Christian violence in the medieval era compare to, explain away or even legitimize the tenacity of Muslim violence in the modern era?
Pedophilia and the Tu Quoque Defence
Main Article: A Refutation of 'The Islamophobe's Glass House'
A refutation of the e-book The Islamophobe's Glass House: Refuting the Claim that Prophet Muhammad was a Pedophile by Ibn al-Hashimi. In his introduction titled "The Glass House", the author reveals that the first way he is going to prove Muhammad was not a pedophile is by applying the logical fallacy of ad hominem tu quoque. His first claim is that Jewish law permits a man to marry a girl as young as three years of age, and Christian law permits a man to marry a girl as young as seven years of age. He also brings up Mary, the mother of Jesus, and Joseph. Relying on 2nd century AD non-canonical (not considered to be Christian scripture) writings, the author attempts to parallel Joseph's actions with those of Muhammad. Both claims are false, and the author fails to prove that the label of "pedophile" is inaccurate for a 54-year-old man who has sexual intercourse with a nine-year-old girl.
What Islamic scripture and scholars say about the People of the Book
Main Article: Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars
eople of the Book
Islamic scripture and scholars have much to say in regards to Jews and Christians.
And the Jews say: Ezra is the son of Allah, and the Christians say: The Messiah is the son of Allah. That is their saying with their mouths. They imitate the saying of those who disbelieved of old. Allah (Himself) fighteth against them. How perverse are they! They have taken as lords beside Allah their rabbis and their monks and the Messiah son of Mary, when they were bidden to worship only One Allah. There is no Allah save Him. Be He Glorified from all that they ascribe as partner (unto Him)!
Qur'an 9:30
Antisemitism in Islam
Main Article: Islamic Antisemitism
Anti-Semitism is rampant among followers of Islam. This intense hatred of Jews is deeply rooted within Islamic scripture, and upon reading these texts, there is little wonder why Mein Kampf, written by Adolf Hitler, is a best-seller in the Arab and Muslim World including; Egypt, Palestine,[12] "moderate" Turkey,[13][14] and is selling well in London areas with a large Arab population.[12] It is often sold along-side religious literature and strangely enough, Mein Kampf can be translated as "My Jihad" in Arabic. The book is also selling as well as Dan Brown's latest novel in Dhaka, Bangladesh,[15] where sales soar towards Eid, as it is bought by many as gifts, and other anti-Semitic literature like Protocols of the Elders of Zion,[14] a 19th-century anti-Semitic tract are also hugely popular.
Muhammad's personal hatred for Jews led him to declare that the Final Hour will not come until Muslims slaughter Jews, and even the rocks and trees will betray the Jews hiding behind them.
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: The last hour would not come unless the Muslims will fight against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone or a tree and a stone or a tree would say: Muslim, or the servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him; but the tree Gharqad would not say, for it is the tree of the Jews.

Misquoting Jesus and Others in the Qur'an
Main Article: Misquoting Jesus and Others in the Qur'an
"O Jesus son of Mary!" said the disciples, or so claims the Qur'an in surah 5:112. On the surface this quote from one of Jesus' (Isa's) disciples may seem unextraordinary, but there is a subtle error here that few ever notice. However, once it is noticed, few will ever forget. This article will show beyond a doubt that Muhammad was putting words into other people's mouths and fabricating quotes so that he could artificially create reinforcement and confirmation of the points he was trying to make, which is that Jesus was not the Son of God and Muhammad is Allah's prophesied final Messenger. It was by Muhammad's good fortune that he was such a great military leader, for as a playwright he would have been sorely lacking.
Was Muhammad a Lesser Prophet than Moses or Jesus?
Main Article: Was Muhammad a Lesser Prophet than Moses or Jesus?
When Royalty assign a task to someone in person, it is often denoted as a great privilege and is considered as an honor to whom it is the Royal addressed. Conversely, when a subject is deemed unfit to associate with in a personal manner, the undesirable task may be assigned to a servant. With this in mind, it is surprising to learn that, according to the Qur'an, Musa and Isa (commonly identified with the Judeo-Christian Moses and Jesus) received revelations directly from Allah while Muhammad did not.
Revelation is the medium by which Allah claims to have communicated his words to his prophets so that they may inform the people of his will, what he wants from them and what they must do for him in order to be saved from eternal damnation.

The Qur'an
Main Article: Qur'an, See also: Al-Fatiha
The Qur'ān (القرآن) is the central religious text of Islam. Muslims believe the Qur'an to be the book of divine guidance and direction for mankind. The best-known chapter of the Qur'an is al-Fatiha ‘The Opening’. This surah is recited as part of all the mandatory daily prayers and repeated within each prayer. A faithful Muslim who said all their prayers would recite this surah at least seventeen times a day, and over five thousand times a year. The hadith literature make negative references to the Jews and Christians in connection with this surah. Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan and Dr. Muhammad Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali incorporate this within their translation. Ayah 6-7 thus reads; "Guide us to the Straight Way. The Way of those on whom You have bestowed Your Grace, not (the way) of those who earned Your Anger (such as the Jews), nor of those who went astray (such as the Christians)."
It is remarkable that the daily prayers of every Muslim, part of the core of Islam, include a rejection of Christians and Jews as misguided and objects of Allah’s wrath.
The incompatibility of Islam with Previous Revelations
Does Qur'an 2:79 prove corruption of the previous scriptures?
Main Articles: Corruption of Previous Scriptures and Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars:Corruption of Previous Scriptures
It is a common belief among Muslims that the Qur'an states that the previous scriptures (the Taurat and Injil) have been physically corrupted by those who were charged with safeguarding it (the Jews and Christians). Thus, the Qur'an is the 'return' to the true message of the God of the Bible. When asked to provide evidence that the Qur'an says the previous scriptures have been corrupted, Muslims will proudly present verse 2:79 as evidence.
Shakir: Woe, then, to those who write the book with their hands and then say: This is from Allah, so that they may take for it a small price; therefore woe to them for what their hands have written and woe to them for what they earn.
Qur'an 2:79
This article will examine What the Qur'an really says about the Taurat and Injil; and examine verse 2:79 in its own context, as well as against the aforementioned verses to see if the belief of physical scriptural corruption is valid.
Contradictions in Qur'anic Christology
Main Article: Contradictions in Qur'anic Christology
There are already many articles on Wiki-Islam about contradictions and errors in the Qur'an concerning logic, history, mathematics, cosmology and many more subjects. In this article, however, we would like to describe a quite different kind of weakness of the Qur'an which we would like to refer to as lack of theological professionalism. Even if we overlook the errors in the Qur'an, it is still surprising that the author of this holy book in some cases looks like somebody who cannot make the right use of quotations from Christian literature for his own argumentation. We want to show this by the example of the Christology in the Qur'an.
In this approach, the Qur'an, the Bible and any other text mentioned are regarded as texts written by human beings, not by God. Also, our intention is not to decide which of the opinions concerning the nature of Jesus are true or untrue. Instead we would like to focus on the quality of the arguments rendered in the Qur'an. From this viewpoint, we would like to elaborate the Christological opinions of the Qur'an compared to the Bible and show how they are expressed.
Parallelism Between the Qur'an and Judeo-Christian Scriptures
Main Article: Parallelism Between the Qur'an and Judeo-Christian Scriptures
The similarities between the Qur'an and previous scriptures has been noted since the advent of Islam. However, the Judeo-Christian tales and their Qur'anic counterparts do not always match. There are three explanations for this:
The original Judeo-Christian scriptures have been corrupted (as Muslims like to claim).
Muhammad imperfectly borrowed from the Judeo-Christian scriptures.
The Qur'an has been corrupted.
It is an epistemological matter as to which of the three is correct. The Qur'an’s assertion that the Judeo-Christian scriptures have been corrupted is mere accusation devoid of evidence. This thirteen-page long in-depth study looks at the following parallelisms between the Qur'an and Judeo-Christian Scriptures:
Talking baby Jesus
Mary daughter of Amran & sister of Aaron
Sanhedrin 37a
the raven and the burial of Abel
Mary, Jesus and the Trinity
Jesus and the clay birds
Mary’s upbringing & her relationship with Zachariah
Mary, Jesus & the palm tree
Satan’s refusal to prostrate to Adam
the Queen of Sheba
the wealth of Korah
and Abraham & the idols.
The People of the Book: Do they qualify as believers or disbelievers?
Main Articles: Kafir and The People of the Book: Do they qualify as believers or disbelievers?
This is a fundamentally important question in Islam. If the People of the Book are indeed believers, then Islam is not necessary to avoid eternal torment in hell. However, if the People of the Book are disbelievers, then Allah has a lot to answer for, namely why did he allow for so many people to be led astray by books they themselves did not corrupt? A typical Islamic response would be: "It is a test." But if that's the case, why would any omniscient (all-knowing) being require a test to know the hearts of men? And why create an eternal torture chamber to punish those humans who failed the test when he knew they were going to fail before he even created them? Allah is therefore either a sadist or he is ignorant.
Biblical and Islamic Figures God
Main Articles: Hubal, Allah the Best Deceiver and Allah the Polytheist
According to Islam, Allāh is the Creator of the Universe. Allah does not mean 'God' but rather 'the God' [2] and is thus one of the remnants of Islam's polytheistic origins. In the pre-Islamic era, Allah was the supreme creator god of the Arabs, a moon god who lived in a rock located in the Ka'aba. [2] Yet he was still only one god among the many others they believed in.[3] The goddesses; Allāt (the feminine form of “Allah”, meaning 'the goddess' ),[4] Manat, and al-Uzza were Allah's daughters.[2]
Jesus Christ
Main Articles: Isa al-Masih and Allah, His Word, and 'Isa
In Islam, Isa al-Masih (عيسى المسي usually translated as Jesus Christ) is not believed to be the Son of God, but simply a 'messenger', inferior in status to Muhammad. While Muslims will claim they "love Jesus", it is clearly evident that they do not love Yasū‘ (يسوع the actual Arabic term for Jesus, which is used by Arab Christians),[5] but love the Islamic Isa who, when studied, shares little in common with the founder of Christianity.
The Virgin Mary
Main Article: Allah: I sent Jibreel to blow into Mary's Vagina
The Qur'anic verses 21:91 and 66:12 in conjunction with the tafsir's, tell us the angel Jibreel was sent to breathe Allah's spirit into Maryam's (مريم Mary's) vagina. Qur'an 5:116 tells us the Trinity consists of three separate gods, which are the Father (God), the Mother (Virgin Mary) and the Son (Jesus), and due to this abysmal ignorance of the Trinity doctrine, Muslims consider all Trinitarian Christians to be polytheists. Also according to Muhammad, Mary will be one of his wives in paradise.
Muhammad said, “In heaven, Mary mother of Jesus, will be one of my wives.”
al-Siyuti (6/395)
"The Messenger of God ... said, ‘God married me in paradise to Mary the daughter of 'Imran and to the wife of Pharaoh and the sister of Moses.’" [6]

The Angel Gabriel
Main Articles: Angel Jibreel and Gabriel and the Holy Spirit
According to Islamic scriptures, Jibreel (جبريل Gabriel) is the angel who first appeared to Muhammad in the cave of Hijra and taught Muhammad the Qur'an. The initial experience frightened Muhammad, and originally thinking he was possessed by a demon, the Islamic prophet became suicidal.
Under Islamic Rule Dhimmitude
Main Articles: Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars
himmitude and DhimmitudeThe term Dhimmitude is derived from Dhimmi, which means a non-Muslim living in an Islamic country. Robert Spencer has defined it as "the status that Islamic law, the Sharia, mandates for non-Muslims, primarily Jews and Christians". According to orthodox Islamic law, those who are qualified for the second-class Dhimmi status within the Muslim society are the free (i.e non-slave) Christians, Jews, and Zoroastrians, who agree to pay the jizyah. Adherents of other religions, as well as those without religion, are asked to convert to Islam; if they refuse, they are to be forced to convert.
Jizyah Tax
Main Articles: Jizyah and Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars
:Jizya
Summon the people to God; those who respond to your call, accept it from them, but those who refuse must pay the poll tax out of humiliation and lowliness. If they refuse this, it is the sword without leniency. Fear God with regard to what you have been entrusted.[7]
Umar ibn al-Khattab during the conquest of al-Basrah (636 CE)
According to the Qur'an and hadith, Jizyah or jizya (جزْي) is the extra tax imposed on non-Muslims (Dhimmis) who live under Muslim rule. It is paid as a sign of submission and gives dhimmis some legal protection in return. Under dhimmitude (the status that Islamic law, the Sharia, mandates for non-Muslims) Dhimmis usually are not allowed to carry arms to protect themselves, serve in the army or government, display symbols of their faith, build or repair places of worship etc. If the conquered do not wish to pay or convert, their fate may very well be slavery (under which, rape is permitted) or (as evidenced in the quotes above) death.
Forced Conversion
Main Article: Forced Conversion
This article simply provides information about the Islamic use of forced conversion and forced submission or expulsion as evidenced by Islamic scripture and historical and contemporary writings. For example, According to the respected scholar, Sayyid Abul Ala Maududi, jihad should be waged against Jews and Christians because they are guilty of committing shirk (one of the gravest sins in Islam), their beliefs about the Day of Judgement are not Islamic, and they do not follow the laws of Islam revealed to Muhammad.[8]
The Destruction of Non-Muslim Worship Places
Main Article: List of Worship Places Converted or Destroyed by Muslims
Throughout history, Muslims have destroyed worship places (churches, synagogues, temples) of other religions or converted them into mosques. In fact, the Ka'aba (the holiest shrine in Islam) was originally a pagan place of worship, used by the polytheist Arabs before Muhammad subsequently removed and destroyed everything considered idolatrous.
The Pact of Umar
Main Articles: A Brief Analysis of the Pact of Umar and The Pact of Umar
Much has been said of the Pact of Umar,[9] and much of it distinctly positive. Its non-Muslim admirers gleefully compare its contents to the treatment of religious minorities in Medieval Europe, while ignoring its influence and conformity with Islamic scriptural sources which still govern the treatment of minorities in the East today. Some non-Muslim scholars of early Islam doubt the pact's authenticity, highlighting the fact that the Islamic traditions surrounding the writing of the pact are a few hundred years removed from the actual events described, and that no contemporary sources refers to it at all. Sophronius' (560 - 638 AD) authentic extant writings also refer to the Muslim conquerors in a very negative way, putting further doubts on the Muslim recollections of events.[10] Nevertheless, this article will accept its authenticity and analyse the rights and limitations placed on the Syrians, to see just how free non-Muslims really were under the Rightly-guided Caliph.
The Genocide of Banu Qurayza
Main Articles: The Genocide of Banu Qurayza and Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars:Banu Qurayza
Hijra year 5 (627 AD), Almost nine hundred Jews (including children) of a Medinan tribe named Banu Qurayza were massacred by Muslims in one day. Muhammad was the lead spectator of this atrocious butchery which began early in the day, ending in torchlight. Those who escaped death were taken captive by Muslims and sold in slave markets. This genocide is known in history as the Banu Qurayza incident.

Are Judaism and Christianity as Violent as Islam?
Main Article: Are Judaism and Christianity as Violent as Islam?
"There is far more violence in the Bible than in the Qur'an; the idea that Islam imposed itself by the sword is a Western fiction, fabricated during the time of the crusades when, in fact, it was Western Christians who were fighting brutal holy wars against Islam."[11] So announces former nun and self-professed "freelance monotheist," Karen Armstrong. This quote sums up the single most influential argument currently serving to deflect the accusation that Islam is inherently violent and intolerant: All monotheistic religions, proponents of such an argument say, and not just Islam, have their fair share of violent and intolerant scriptures, as well as bloody histories. Thus, whenever Islam's sacred scriptures—the Qur'an first, followed by the reports on the words and deeds of Muhammad (the Hadith)— are highlighted as demonstrating the religion's innate bellicosity, the immediate rejoinder is that other scriptures, specifically those of Judeo-Christianity, are as riddled with violent passages.
But is that really the case? Does Hebrew violence in the ancient era, and Christian violence in the medieval era compare to, explain away or even legitimize the tenacity of Muslim violence in the modern era?
Pedophilia and the Tu Quoque Defence
Main Article: A Refutation of 'The Islamophobe's Glass House'
A refutation of the e-book The Islamophobe's Glass House: Refuting the Claim that Prophet Muhammad was a Pedophile by Ibn al-Hashimi. In his introduction titled "The Glass House", the author reveals that the first way he is going to prove Muhammad was not a pedophile is by applying the logical fallacy of ad hominem tu quoque. His first claim is that Jewish law permits a man to marry a girl as young as three years of age, and Christian law permits a man to marry a girl as young as seven years of age. He also brings up Mary, the mother of Jesus, and Joseph. Relying on 2nd century AD non-canonical (not considered to be Christian scripture) writings, the author attempts to parallel Joseph's actions with those of Muhammad. Both claims are false, and the author fails to prove that the label of "pedophile" is inaccurate for a 54-year-old man who has sexual intercourse with a nine-year-old girl.
What Islamic scripture and scholars say about the People of the Book
Main Article: Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars
eople of the BookIslamic scripture and scholars have much to say in regards to Jews and Christians.
And the Jews say: Ezra is the son of Allah, and the Christians say: The Messiah is the son of Allah. That is their saying with their mouths. They imitate the saying of those who disbelieved of old. Allah (Himself) fighteth against them. How perverse are they! They have taken as lords beside Allah their rabbis and their monks and the Messiah son of Mary, when they were bidden to worship only One Allah. There is no Allah save Him. Be He Glorified from all that they ascribe as partner (unto Him)!
Qur'an 9:30
Antisemitism in Islam
Main Article: Islamic Antisemitism
Anti-Semitism is rampant among followers of Islam. This intense hatred of Jews is deeply rooted within Islamic scripture, and upon reading these texts, there is little wonder why Mein Kampf, written by Adolf Hitler, is a best-seller in the Arab and Muslim World including; Egypt, Palestine,[12] "moderate" Turkey,[13][14] and is selling well in London areas with a large Arab population.[12] It is often sold along-side religious literature and strangely enough, Mein Kampf can be translated as "My Jihad" in Arabic. The book is also selling as well as Dan Brown's latest novel in Dhaka, Bangladesh,[15] where sales soar towards Eid, as it is bought by many as gifts, and other anti-Semitic literature like Protocols of the Elders of Zion,[14] a 19th-century anti-Semitic tract are also hugely popular.
Muhammad's personal hatred for Jews led him to declare that the Final Hour will not come until Muslims slaughter Jews, and even the rocks and trees will betray the Jews hiding behind them.
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: The last hour would not come unless the Muslims will fight against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone or a tree and a stone or a tree would say: Muslim, or the servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him; but the tree Gharqad would not say, for it is the tree of the Jews.

Misquoting Jesus and Others in the Qur'an
Main Article: Misquoting Jesus and Others in the Qur'an
"O Jesus son of Mary!" said the disciples, or so claims the Qur'an in surah 5:112. On the surface this quote from one of Jesus' (Isa's) disciples may seem unextraordinary, but there is a subtle error here that few ever notice. However, once it is noticed, few will ever forget. This article will show beyond a doubt that Muhammad was putting words into other people's mouths and fabricating quotes so that he could artificially create reinforcement and confirmation of the points he was trying to make, which is that Jesus was not the Son of God and Muhammad is Allah's prophesied final Messenger. It was by Muhammad's good fortune that he was such a great military leader, for as a playwright he would have been sorely lacking.
Was Muhammad a Lesser Prophet than Moses or Jesus?
Main Article: Was Muhammad a Lesser Prophet than Moses or Jesus?
When Royalty assign a task to someone in person, it is often denoted as a great privilege and is considered as an honor to whom it is the Royal addressed. Conversely, when a subject is deemed unfit to associate with in a personal manner, the undesirable task may be assigned to a servant. With this in mind, it is surprising to learn that, according to the Qur'an, Musa and Isa (commonly identified with the Judeo-Christian Moses and Jesus) received revelations directly from Allah while Muhammad did not.
