Aineo Wrote:

The context of the Bible tells us that the descendants of Ishmael would fight everyone and that God would establish His covenant with Isaac.

Farid Wrote:

Yes, Muslims know that, but then where did the blessing that was going to be bestowed upon Ishmael go, just because God will establish his covenant, with Israel, doesnt mean it wont be taken away if they act undeservingly.

NASB: "Therefore I say to you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people, producing the fruit of it. (NASB ©1995)

Aineo Wrote:

Muhammad hated the Jews and looked for any excuse to attack them.

Farid Wrote:

He did not hate Jews, he lived amongst them, remember. Half the Jews in Madina became Muslims, does that mean he hated them, no. There were some Jews who wanted to exterminate the Muslims, so Muhammad(pbuh) always had to be on guard.


Aineo Wrote:

Not true, none of God's true prophets were illiterate, suffered from demonic oppression, lied, lifted themselves above God's law, or had visions that allowed themselves special privileges. However, God has used pagans nations and those who promote false religions to be Israel's enemies and then destroyed them.

Farid Wrote:

Since when is literacy a must for a prophet, Muhammad(pbuh) was an illiterate, but he didnt remain one, some say he never was illiterate, just illiterate of spiritual knowledge. Muhammad(pbuh) never lied, and he never lifted himself above Gods law, the vision of him about marrying Aisha(r.a) was from God, if you disagree with Muhammad(pbuh) decision, then you are disagreeing with God, the reason it was from God is because Muhammad(pbuh) was a prophet and all prophets dreams are from God, take for example, Abraham, when he had the dream to slaughter his son.

Muhammad(pbuh) was not above God's law:

Al-Mugeerah ibn Shooba narrated:

"The Prophet, peace be upon him, used to stand in prayer until his feet became swollen and cracked. He was then asked: 'Hasn't God forgiven you that which is before you and that which is behind you?' He (Muhammad, pbuh) replied: 'Should I not be a thankful servant?' " (Narrated by Al-Bukhari)

Aisha (pbuh) narrated:

"Allah's Messenger (pbuh) used to fast till one would say: he never stops fasting, and he would abstain from fasting till one would say:t he never fast." (Narrated by Al-Bukhari)

Anas said:

"You would never like to see him standing in the middle of the night in prayer but you would, and never would you like to see him sleeping but you would" (Narrated by Al-Bukhari)

The companions narrated that when a hardship or trial befell him he would pray. He would say

"My comfort has been placed in prayer" (Narrated by Al-Nissai)

Abu Tharr narrated that Allah's Messenger (pbuh) said,

"If I had gold equal to the mountain of Uhud, it would not please me that any of it should remain with me after three nights (i.e. I would spend all of it in Allah's cause) except what I would keep for repaying debts." (Narrated by Al-Bukhari)

Jabir ibn Abdullah narrated:

"The messenger of Allah was never asked for something and then he said 'no' (he never refused a request)" (Narrated by Al-Bukhari)

Muhammad(pbuh) held himself below God:

On another occasion, a man said: "God and You (O Muhammad) have willed this" regarding a certain matter. The Messenger of Allah then rebuked him saying:

"Have you made me equal to God?" (Narrated by Al-Bukhari and Muslim)

For the same reason, another time, a man was delivering a speech and said: "He who obeys God and His messenger is indeed wise, and he who disobeys Allah and his messenger has lost." Upon hearing this, the Messenger of Allah said:


"You are the most evil of speakers" (Narrated by Al-Bukhari and Muslim)

He did not even want his name mentioned beside God almighty, how could he disobey God.

Aineo Wrote:

Muslims are arrogant and refuse to repent of their lies concerning the only true God and His prophets.

Farid Wrote:

Jesus(pbuh) said, if a man says "fool" then he is in danger of being in hell-fire.

What is said about Israel in Isaiah:

"You have heard these things; look at them all. Will you not admit them? "From now on I will tell you of new things, of hidden things unknown to you. They are created now, and not long ago; you have not heard of them before today. So you cannot say, 'Yes, I knew of them.' You have neither heard nor understood; from of old your ear has not been open. Well do I know how treacherous you are; you were called a rebel from birth. For my own name's sake I delay my wrath; for the sake of my praise I hold it back from you, so as not to cut you off. (From the NIV Bible, Isaiah 48:6-9)"

thank you.
