· If he comes as an Islamic Jesus, radical and religious Muslims will rejoice at what they see as the fulfillment of Islamic prophecy. It will not be hard for them to follow after him. · Islam demands that all means of weapons, including WMD, should be used to advance Islam, and to die for Islam is the only way to insure going to heaven. (Su 9:41, 47:8, 4:74) · Muslims & subdued peoples are commanded to bow down to Allah at the reading of the Koran. Loyalty and obedience to Allah’s apostle is equal to obeying Allah. (Su 32:15,48:8-10, 64:12). · Those who don’t worship Allah and accept his religion will be killed and thrown to hell at the coming judgment. (Su 77:49, 9:3-5, 9:29-34, 9:123, 27:82-86, 98:1-7) · “True” Christians will acknowledge Mohammed and the Koran. (Su 29:47-48) · The Koran states that Allah’s apostles always come with signs. (Su 5:110, 43:63-64). · Allah’s apostle is accountable only to Allah. (Su 48:8-10, 64:12, 59:8). · Jihad, or holy war, is a key tenet of Islam. (Su 2:216, 9:29). · Islam is inconsiderate of women’s needs and wants. (Su 66:1-5, 4:34, 64:14-15). · Allah is the only true god to be worshiped. Allah’s apostle and the Koran supercede all other revelations. (Su 48:28 · The Koran commands Muslims to use their wealth for Islam. They have much oil wealth. (Su 9:44, 57:10). · This has been standard Muslim practice to reward converts with financial incentives through wealth, land and positions of influence. (Su 8:41,74) · There is more wealth and riches in the world than ever before. The Koran says unbelievers are often wealthy and comfortable and will be punished. (Su 34:34-38) · Muslims believe that when Jesus returns he will quote from the Koran a verse that exhorts Jews and Christians to accept Islam and mocks Christians for believing in his divinity. (Su 4:171-172). · The Koran teaches that Gabriel revealed the Koran to Muhammad. (Su 81:22) · There are either 6616 verses in the Koran or 6666 verses, depending on which scholar you talk to. The Islamic Jesus is the word and spirit of Allah. (Su 4:171) · Muslims believe that Jesus will break all crosses at his return and destroy all who will not convert to Islam.(Su 72:18, 9:123, 27:82-86) |
The Koran says, “We have sent you (Muhammad) forth as a witness and as a bearer of good news and warnings, so that you (the Meccans) may have faith in Allah and His Apostle and that you may assist Him (Muhammad), honour Him, and praise Him morning and evening.”
“Those that swear fealty to you (Muhammad), swear fealty to Allah Himself” (Surah 48:8-9).
(The Koran, translated by N.J. Dawood. London: Penguin Books, 1990, 5th Revised Edition.)
