I Am Enjoying Being A Muslim

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:
[quote]Allah says: "I Have no reward other than Paradise for My believing slave who (remains patient) and hopes for My reward when I take his dearest person from among the inhabitants of the worldly life."[/quote]

Allah knows what He is doing. I should have patience. Allah has a plan for us. We are exactly where He wants us to be right now.

Allah tested Prophet Noah with a flood, Prophet Abraham with a fire, Prophet Jacob with blindness, Prophet Joseph with separation, Prophet Job with illness, Prophet Zechariah with loneliness, Prophet Moses with tyrants, Prophet Aaron with betrayal, Prophet Solomon with kingdom, Prophet David with war, and Prophet Mohammad with all kinds of tests we can ever imagine! and we're asking, "Why us?" Let's be patient; and keep praying to Allah for His mercy and take honor that Allah tested us and gave us a chance to join the ranks of His loved ones.

why would you want to go to paradise simply to get permission to do all the things you aren't supposed to do here on earth when you could be a Christian and go to Heaven where you will become like God Himself? Sorry but an eternity of ruttin' and rootin' doesn't appeal to any sane soul. Seek Jesus and He will give you Eternal Life where you are not given to fleshly passions.

@hippyjoe1955 Once again you demonstrate your ignorance.

@suzie1960 As do you my dear. As do you.

@hippyjoe1955 LOL! You really have lost the plot, haven't you?

What does he say about killing all the infidels? You gonna kill the members of your family that are muslims?

@room101 It's okay. Feel free to discuss the topics you like. Even though I disagree with a lot of what you said.

@Madeleine I know you do lol. And I thank you for remaining polite throughout this exchange.
Personally, I don't see a person who uses religious ideas to support and magnify their base emotions a "religious" person. So by the time we're talking about fundentalists being bigoted, hurting people, etc.-- for me it is already a different discussion. It's a social, political, economic discussion. It's not a religious discussion. I find that mode shifting frustrating. Anyway. Ciao.

@Madeleine Jesus is fully God. He was not created. He took on the form of man and thus became fully man. However He never lost His divinity. allah on the other hand is fully created. he started out as a idol the ancient Arabs used to worship since they had no real concept of what Yahweh. The name allah indicates their ignorance.

@hippyjoe1955 I've given u facts within context, you've given me bullet points taken out of context. If we all take words from Holy Books and put our spin on it then every person will be following their own desires.

I will leave you with this
"To you your religion and to me mine." 109:6
I love Muhammad (peace be upon him), and I love Jesus (peace be upon him).
Peace be with you ✌

Without the understanding required you are simply posting gibberish. You have to take all the passages into account (which you are not doing) to come to an understanding of what they all mean. That Jesus is not the same as the Father there is no doubt. That is given yet Jesus said He and the Father are One. How can that be? With the understanding of three parts of the same whole it makes sense. If you leave out one you don't have a whole or if you divide them up into completely separate units you again don't have a whole. Yahweh is One comprised of Three Parts. You are one comprised of three parts. You have a will. You have a stream of consciousness and you have a body. To take out the will you would not be a whole. Take out the stream of consciousness and you would not be a whole. Take away your body and you would not be a whole. In the same way Yahweh exists. I AM signifies that there is Will and Consciousness and Presence. We humans are a little thick so Yahweh gave us examples of what the relationship is like by using terms like Father and Son. From the Will springs the Consciousness. Can't have one without the other. With out the Will there is no Consciousness and without the Consciousness there is no Will. Thus the term Father and Son. They are not separate they exist in relationship. Without the Son there will be no Father. Without the Father there will be no Son. The Three are One and the One is Three. Difficult to understand when you have spiritual blinders on. Take off the blinders and you will understand.
@hippyjoe1955 [quote]That which is infinite is known only to itself. This it is which gives some notion of God, while yet beyond all our conceptions – our very incapacity of fully grasping Him affords us the idea of what He really is. He is presented to our minds in His transcendent greatness, as at once known and unknown.

How about infidels like me?
Christianity promises hell for those who do not believe what happens to those who do not believe in Allah or his prophet?
I am curious is all so you can feel free not to answer this if you do not wish to.

@SW-User If you don't believe in Hereafter, why would you be concern about what happens to you after death?
SW-User
@Madeleine I am not? Just curious to what you believed
Madeleine · 41-45, F
@SW-User Fair enough.

Amen sister, And make sure that Allah always standing by your side watching over you and taking a good care of you.
