Common misconceptions about Allah, part two

The oppressive nature of Christianity in Europe resulted in the divorce of church and state. Secularism and secular democracy has become the order of the day. Why? A serious rise in agnosticism and atheism simply because Christianity presented a white god painted by Michael Angelo which is practically naked with long white beard.

The representation of “god” was so anthropomorphic that it was rejected along intellectual circles. Thus, the responsibility of conveying authentic monotheism to the world lies on the back of a few Muslims amidst a world where wrong is right and vice versa. In this article we will look very briefly at 3 misconceptions about Allah.

Some people assert that they have their own way of worshiping God, thus they do not need somebody else to tell me how to obey him. Allah instructs us in the Holy Quran, “Or have they partners with Allah, who have instituted for them a religion which Allah has not given permission for?” (Holy Quran, 42:21). The human being creates institutions such as banks, libraries, universities etc, they employ subjects to work at these institutions, these subjects must adhere to a code of ethics or else they are fired yet man is within a vast universe that overwhelms him thus he wants to worship Allah the way he feels fit. What audacity man has? What an arrogant creation man is!

Others like Islam but they are in disagreement with some things and request to adapt the message of Islam to contemporary values. Allah says, “When our clear verses are recited to them, those who hope not for their meeting with Us, say: ‘Bring us a Quran other than this, or change it.’ Say: ‘It is not for me to change it on my own accord; I only follow that which is revealed to me. Verily, I fear if I were to disobey my Lord, the torment of a Great Day.” (Holy Quran 10:15). We see the same thing happening today. Muslims are persecuted for righteousness sake simply because they abhor the practice or homosexuality, they do not consume alcohol or engage in any actions which are destructive to the society. They want Islam to “fit in.” Unfortunately, truth has come and falsehood is bound to perish.

Arrogant men say that they are into independent reasoning, they do not need to follow divine instructions because they are humanists; they believe that mankind has the ability to discover what is right and wrong. This is an unintelligible statement. The reason is that man by nature is very egotistical. They make laws to suit their cultural biases. For example, the founding fathers of the United States drafted laws that were pro slavery due to the culture and system at the time. Allah says, “Most of them follow nothing but conjecture. Certainly, conjecture can be of no avail against the truth. Surely, Allah is All-Aware of what they do.” (Holy Quran 10:36)

In short, we have addressed 3 misconceptions about Allah. Any questions or comments please contact the Dominica Muslim Community, listen to the Islamic programme on DBS radio every Thursdays at 7pm Eastern time or email your feedback and comments to [email protected].

    I’m praying that Islamic views do not make its way to the minds of Dominicans!!Islam is inconsistent and confusing; that is why there are so many militants who analyze it the way they do, because it was written by the hands of the so called “prophet” muhammad.I did my research and read two books, Ayaan Hirshi Ali and Bhutto, and it is just a way of life that is hindering, and constricting women. I have total disgust for those islamic views, especially after reading that Muhummad married a young child. Sheldon, you should take your islamic views and get lost.

          You’re a fool, you think Islam is separated from the human being that’s why you talk such non sense. We do not love anyone who speaks ill against Allah, Islam, the prophet Muhammad.

          We show compassion, justice, mercy to those non muslims who respect Islam, they are not insultive. Many non muslims have been critical about Islam afterwards they become muslims, Islam gives one that freedom of speech with the intent to know more about Islam or if that person was just ignorant. To persons like John Charles, he is arrogant and hateful and people like that I cannot love neither do I want his fake love. It’s a hypocritical love.

      What is the percentage of children being born out of wedlock in this country? God fearing?

      What is the rate of divorce currently in this country? 1 in 2 marriages end in divorce.

      Would a God fearing country accept the signatory to the UN to tolerate homosexual practices?

      Does a God fearing country allow for big cooperates and banks to squeeze people with high interest rates which is clearly forbidden in the bible you claim to believe?

      Does God love a proud and arrogant Christian? No

      Try again, Dominica is not a God fearing country, it has become the land of sodom and gomorrah.

      @ Proud Christian

      Some of us Christians especially in this era have different religions and different opinions on certain matters but I love the words: “Apre Bondei c’est la terre.” It is such a long time I have not used this word nor heard it. It renews my knowledge of it, “After God is the earth” and one to be used frequently under certain and those circumstances.
      Allah is not the same God as the Christian God as much as the Muslims would like to believe.
      Firstly, we Christians are not infidels. Christianity is 2,000 years old. The Islam religion is only 600 years old. Prior to this religion being formed by Mohammed, they were all Christians, i.e., the believers in Jesus Christ. They were not born Muslims then but people of a country.
      Islam is not superior to Christianity. They take it upon themselves to make themselves superior and to think that their religion is the first and foremost best religion of all religions. In their ignorance they are not aware that they are wrong. You know, it is like the pot calling the kettle black.
      Secondly, our God does not send His children to willfully murder His other children because of their religion. Then they turn and pray to God after murdering numerous people and hating them for their religion.
      What God is this who will exonerate them and forgive them for murdering His children? That in itself will inform us Christians that their Allah is not the same as Our God who sent His Only Son, Son of God, Our Lord Jesus Christ to earth to suffer and die for us and if we obey His (Our) Heavenly Father’s Will, we will be saved.” This is the Ten Commandments of God, one of which is, The VI – Sixth Commandment: “Thou Shalt Not Kill”.
      Our Lord has taught us to, “Love one another and do good to others.”
      Our God is impartial. He loves everyone with no exception, even his own enemies. He could not be God otherwise. His enemies who are still alive have recourse to Him, to ask His forgiveness.
      Those who murder do not love. They hate and possess hatred in their hearts.
      Consider people dying with lack of love and hatred in their heart and the blood of numerous people whom they murdered on their soul and think they will go to Heaven and meet virgins at that. The latter is laughable. Without being judgmental we know where those souls will end up for all eternity.
      This is a false religion which is not recognized by God and for those reasons. Primarily that they do not recognize Our Lord Jesus Christ as Lord, King and Saviour of the world.
      God knows their religion exists as any other religion but He does not recognize theirs as the one and only true religion because of their teachings, beliefs and actions.
      Our God did not establish the Islam religion. Mohammed took it upon himself and renounced his Christian beliefs and formed his own religion.
      Christians must stand up to them and inform them accordingly.

        @ Lies, injustice, hate, war and disunity: The completion of Islam occurred 1400 years ago thus you need to learn basic history.

        You are very right, the christian michael angelo naked white god that is carved in a portrait is your pagan European god. This is not the creator we serve. Your creator rests on the sabbath, our creator doesn’t rest. Your creator wrestled with Jacob (peace be upon him) and Jacob defeated your god. Allah is the Al-Aziz – the Strong, most powerful. Thus, the pagan god is completely different from Allah, the Exalted, the Supreme.

        Islam is superior because it is the only monotheistic way in the world. It is the only way that represents Allah without any traces of anthropomorphism. Also, Islam is a complete way of life in contrast to Catholicism which comprises of senseless rituals, persecuted scientists who disagreed with the deviant pope. They called the scientists heretics for believing the earth was flat and burnt people to the stake. Catholics believe that the creator of the universe has a mother, pure psychobabbles.

        Secondly, go and study about the crusades and pope Urban, how he slaughtered the jews and muslims in Jerusalem. These “Christians used to cut pregnant women bellies open.” Unfortunately, you are unaware of your church’s dark history.

        I advise you to go to http://www.islam101.net. Sadly, you have absolutely no knowledge about Islam except what the Anti-Christ media has told you.

    Let me start again by saying…What muslims are Doing (practising) speaks so loud we cannot hear what you are saying in your articles.
    Did you say muslims are persecuted for righteousness because you hate homosexuality.Man you too bare face.On 9, 11 your brothers murdered almost 3,000 innocent men, women and children including St Rose from Cane Field. In the U.S. the muslim are more free than in the Islamic countries,How many mosque were burnt and muslim killed in retaliation in the U.S immediately after 9,11?.
    If someone would say, your god allah and your so called prophet is too ugly Your brothers would kill innocent people. Because your god cannot defend himself.Your god is a figment of your own imagination,he is promising his followers virgins in his heaven if they kill nonmuslims.

    Is it true they don’t engage in any action which are destructive to society? I believe you are insulting the intelligence of Dominicans. The only religion I know presently that is engaged in destructive action is yours religion.

    Christianity is not oppressive,If you watch the work of christian organisations,even those who are christians just in name.They build schools hospitals,and organisations to help their fellow men especially the under privileged.Take for example George Williams founded the YMCA in 1844.Many of the top universities in the U.S like Princeton University was founded over 200 yrs.ago by two Presbyterians,John Harvard left half of his wealth to the institution that bears his name.In Da see the Catholic schools SDA schools,Methodist High Schools,Nehemiah school and all the preschools run by christians,Not forgetting Christian Children’s Fund (CCf) they drop the word christian and put international.

    Every country Muslim rule is misery oppression and death.See what they are doing to their own in Darfur,They have them in the deserts suffering and in slavery .American christians are buying them and set them free.
    Friend,My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ said,
    You shall know them by their fruits.

      Why don’t you logically deal with the article presented? I guess you can’t but spill hate for Islam. Perish in your hate!

      Second, Christianity has the most gruesome and ugliest history in the world regarding human rights, that is why the ugly head of secularism is born.

      Our muslim brothers did not commit 9/11 all praises be to Allah. Not one jew came to work that day when we know many jews worked there. It’s your “chosen people” who hates gentiles did this to you because according to their Talmud, a gentile (non-jew) is sub-human

      Also, your god is a figment of your white european imagination. How is your right senses could you worship a white god drawn by Michael Angelo with a small willie? This is pure paganism.

      If you want to know about Allah, the one who created you from dust then go to http://www.islam101.net

      Go and read Jn Charles. May Allah remove your hatred of light and truth from your heart. Ameen.

    God gave you a body and mind and some degree of intelligence. He gave you a free will which enables you to write against Christianity of all. He will not touch that free mind. God is patient. It is that same free mind which will either save your or condemn you. Be careful of what you state for Our Lord Jesus Christ said (God The Son who lived, suffered and died for us that we might live in His Heavenly Kingdom, whom you refuse to recognize as Lord, King and Saviour of the world, sent to earth by His (Our Heavenly Father – God) said, “By your words you will be acquitted and by your words you will be condemned”.
    Whatever your excuse is, whatever excuses you make, there is no excuse.
    OUR GOD will not make excuses for anyone and will not accept their excuses. He will not exonerate your leader for forming his own religion and amassing followers as you. In fact, OUR GOD did not exonerate him.
    Whatever they believe and whether they formed their own religion, they cannot change a thing.
    Our Lord Jesus Christ who is The Prince of Peace, did not leave a mess, mass confusion, disunity and lack of peace in the world.
    Those who have predeceased us have gone to their judgment. The moment some of those who renounced Christianity closed their eyes they realized the truth, their disobedience and mistake; too late.
    He is GOD! He is LORD! He is LORD! He is risen from the dead and He is LORD. Every knee shall bow, every tongue confess that JESUS CHRIST IS LORD.
    So shall it be on that inevitable day when we are all called to our judgment. Woe to those who refuse to recognize Our Lord Jesus Christ while God grants them life and time.

    Some people of the World say: Confusion! Perversion of truth! Errors of Communism! Humanism! Modernism!

    OUR LORD, GOD SAYS: I know that after my departure fierce wolves will get in among you and will not spare the flock (the false prophets). And from among your own selves men will rise speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them. – Acts 20/29-30.

    You would do better to exert your effort, to go about to your own, promoting peace, goodwill to all people and among them and eradicating terrorism. The world could do with some permanent peace and no terrorism. This should be your effort.
    Genuine practicing Christians are not interested in your Allah. We do not have an Allah. We have “A GOD! HE IS GOD ALMIGHTY!”

    JESUS SAID: I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. CHRIST LIVES.

    A holy person said: “To pass through the door that leads to His Kingdom, we must go down on our knees.”

      Jesus is not God my friend. God does not pray, eat, urinate or defecate.

      Jesus peace be upon him was a messenger of Allah. His mother was a woman of truth and both of them ate earthly food. See how Allah makes signs so clear to you yet you are so far from the truth.

      If you claim that Jesus is God, how can God have a mother? Isn’t God the ever existing? This teaching is flawed.

      Islam is the only way that will remove polytheism and darkness from your heart. Go to http://www.whatsislam.com to learn the basics at least about the truth. perhaps you will be able to reason with a muslim better.

        I have a message for you. Your comments above generated right from the jaws of Hell which is where all those who hate Our Lord Jesus Christ and teach against Him go to, to keep company with Satan and his corteges – followers. How Satan is happy with you. He must be dancing and laughing with glee about what you stated.
        Satan knows that Our Lord Jesus Christ is God, The Son, The Second Person of the Blessed Trinity.
        Satan was thrown out of Heaven because he said, “I will not serve.” You are saying the same thing: I will not serve your Lord Jesus Christ.
        Jesus Christ is Lord above the earth. Above Him there is no other. He said “All things are handed down to Him by His (Our) Heavenly Father.” Those are the Words of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
        When Judgment Day comes and we are all judged, those who are saved, Our Lord will hand them to His (Our) Heavenly Father. He will say: “Hear Father. I saved these for You.” Stating this gives me a happy feeling.
        So what do you know and about Our Loving and Peaceful God? Keep your clappers shut once and for all. You are not an expert on Christianity and by no means an expert about Our Lord Jesus Christ.
        You did state in one of your comments that you know Holy Scriptures. Am I to deduce that you were once a Christian and that you renounced your Christian Faith? If you knew about Holy Scriptures you would not have left the Christian faith. You would remain in it, grow in it, build it up, defend and support it. The fact that you are not a Christian shows that you know absolutely nothing about Holy Scriptures and the Christian Faith.
        You are the one who is spewing hatred. God will take care of you and your counterparts in time. One of our Christian obligations is to defend our Christian faith against its enemies, those who teach against it and think their Allah is God and is one and the same as the Christian God.
        I, rather, Christians do not need your further comments. Case closed!

          How much money Catholic church is paying right now for pedophilia? These priests do not want to marry according to 1 Timothy 3:1-15 which allows priests and deacons to get married. What a shame and a disgrace! The pope has invented monasticism for them now it’s 5 and 6 year old children’s buttocks paying for it.

          Secondly, we love the messiah far more than all you “Christians” put together. You said to serve Jesus, who did Jesus pray to? Himself? Trinity was fabricated in the council of Nicea that’s why today you all recite the nicene creed.

          Yes, I was a Catholic, I was a member of the Catholic Youth movement for many years. I went to a catholic primary and secondary school. I researched extensively into Catechist of the Catholic Church by Pope John Paul II. I knew Bishop Arnold Bogart very well when I went to school. I know more about Catholic Church than you think. It is after careful investigation and analysis I questioned the things I was taught from the time I went to school. There is no way I could believe that Jesus and the “Father” are the same, that they are co-equal, co-eternal etc because all the components of the trinity are completely different, how could they be the same? That’s flawed reasoning and the Catholic Church keeps its adherents in darkness by claiming it is a mystery. Not to mention the foolish things said on http://www.ewtn.com

    i am all for different religions, but i think the best way forward for muslims in dominica is to live right and clean. and secondly just go about your business as normal, rather than keep sending out articles. allow people to judge the actions rather than the hearsay

    • AoA
      May 26, 2011

      We all need to live clean. One may interpret this statement differently. Additionally, we have to be clean and clear with Allah. Besides giving human beings their rights, we must give Allah His rights, that is to worship Him alone without intermediaries and partners. The same creator that the messiah, son of Mary worshipped, we should follow him in that.

        May 26, 2011

        firstly, this was advice to you all. i respect muslims. got many muslim friends. secondly, believe in what you like but dont push it onto others. thirdly, dominica is very new to muslims, you must give people time to communicate with muslims and see what they are like. the muslims have been trading in roseau for a million years and nobody thought they were bad. in fact they are probably one of the most stable stores in dominica. point is, like i said, live clean and right and let people judge from actions rather than hearsay. in other words, “talk is cheap”. so respect others first like you want respect and respect you shall receive. keep your head down and you will fit in with people saying oh wow, muslims are nice. force it on them and you will be repelled swiftly. dont believe me then that is your problem.

    The writer of this article makes some interesting points. But I also like the comment by the person whose reasoning is ‘/allah allah, my foot.’ I don’t think this individual meant to be disrespectful. As a person who was born and grew up in a largely Christian country, the United States of America, I find myself smiling and even laughing at people who claim theirs is the only religious truth that exists. My response — nonsense. Or better yet, as the person says, ‘My foot.’

    All of us are on a journey, from the day of birth until the day we pass on. Whether that passing is to spirit or simply to a longtime stay in Mother Earth, we are where we are, and we are what we are. My favorite teacher or pastor is the one who is wise enough to tell me he/she does not have all the answers. I am a gadabout journalist who grew up in Pennsylvania and who has worked as a writer in many diverse places — Los Angeles, San Francisco, Las Vegas, Naples, Fl. and several islands in the Caribbean. I have covered disasters of many descriptions — earthquakes, deadly tornadoes, tropical storms that became earthquakes, forest fires, murders and commercial jetliners that crashed, killing all aboard.

    During my time on planet earth, I have experienced and learned many things. I have worshipped in many places, drank with many celebrities, politicians, and newsmakers, and I know this: now we see through a dark glass, but one day we shall truly understand and see face to face. I have been to Dominica and have a deep admiration for your people, your rivers, your waterfalls and your island. I wish you peace, beauty and love. And someday I would like to return and write some things about your people, whether they are of the Muslim faith, the Christian faith or no faith. All of you are equal in my eyes, and all of you have a story to tell. Peace. Geno Marcello. [email protected]

          those statements were not made to give his self glory, but was sending quite the oposite message. jesus never once accepted glorification and praises…he always denounced it and said the praises should be to his father and not him, cause it is because of his father he is able to do all he has done. which is the basis of the statement you quoted from the bible. Jesus knows the magnitude of the father and that no man or human spirit will never get to see or cannot see the father….he having gone through our worlds shares our common substantiality and so has become a bridge. he is the son of god…and by all means knows the greatness of his father, therefore his submission was mandatory cause he came to show us how to leave in accordance to the fathers will. he always mentioned that he didnt come to overthrow his fathers law but to embrace it and bring it back to the forefront of human life. the muslims need to look at jesus and at what religion has belittled him to. they themselves are belittling him by denouncing his ordinace as the son of god. dont you think the son of god would have shown the most submission to the law of god cause he is one with them…..

      If Mohammed willfully renounced Christianity and waged war against It and encouraged his followers to do likewise, to this day, which is what he did and lived such a lifestyle which is known to everyone who has heard about him, I doubt at the time of his death he would ever accept Jesus Christ.
      In order to accept Jesus Christ and to be forgiven, souls must receive the grace of God, in order to ask His forgiveness. After persecuting Christians which is persecuting and murdering them, God Himself, do you think that he received the grace of God?
      Remember what Our Lord said to Saul (Paul) when he was persecuting and killing Christians: “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me?”
      There is much more than meets the eye and limited earthly minds cannot fathom.
      There are books written of Muslims (called in those days as Moslems) and their persecution of Christianity. Much of this has not changed. They are still persecuting and murdering Christians in many countries.
      Mohammed’s sins predeceased him to eternity and his sins are following him (continue to follow after him) to eternity – Holy Scriptures.
      Food for thought.

      @ Linky, in order for us to deal effectively with problems we must tackle the root. The root of our problem is our lack of recognition of our creator. When our nation submits to Allah then these problems will be reduced significantly. For example, only Islam teaches that taking loans on interest is wrong. It is high way robbery, the rich get richer and the poor gets poorer. Whereas, companies like Domlec, Dowasco, Lime and Digicel etc. would be obliged to give 2.5% of their wealth to the poor masses who are struggling to make ends meet in the society so that these very people who make them rich would have a fair chance to access their basic needs as well as increase their spending power.

      Please refer to http://www.islam101.net.

          Thanks Linky, what I am saying to you is only Islam teaches no interest, no VAT, but the rich people and companies ought to give 2.5% of their riches to the less fortunate. It is Allah who revealed this perfect way to mankind. The reason why man is in this mess is that he has no consciousness and fear of Allah. When a man has fear of Allah’s punishment this will prevent him from exploiting the poor. When a man hopes for the reward of Allah he will be generous to the poor etc. This consciousness is very important, if not, these crimes will not be curbed.

          I hope you can see the link between Allah and these things I mentioned. It is Allah who is the sole Lawgiver thus just as we respect worldly judges, we should respect Allah who created these judges.
