This is an invitation to observe, to ponder and to be with us, aware
and certain that it is our duty and moral obligation to convey the
message of our Creator.

In the search for truth, it is indispensable that we take some time
and effort to know the basis of our faith, and as true believers, we
must follow the purest essence of our belief as exemplified by the
messengers of God.

Who else can give us the guidance but those whom God chose and
entrusted with the mission of proclaiming glad tidings to the
believers and warnings to those who deviate from the way of our
Creator and refuse to believe.

Religion for some may simply be a field of academics, to others it's a
medium solely for spiritual enrichment, and to a lot more various
aspects or views people may find fitting on their level of desires or
caprices.

But for us, our religion is a complete way of life as shown by all the
prophets of God (Peace and blessing be upon them all) and as
epitomized by the last Prophet (Peace and blessing be upon him) in
order to attain salvation.

There is no doubt that this temporary life is only a probationary
period, a transitory phase to the next and final one. As such, it
should offer everyone the necessary requirements instrumental in
paving the way for our last destination, where belief in the lone
Creator and obedience to His command (doing what is right and
forbidding what is wrong) will be the only acceptable means to merit
salvation.

Thus, knowing the true teachings of God is tantamount to knowing life!
That's how important it is!

With due respect and love to Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon him) as
one of God's mightiest prophets who was sent to the lost sheep of
Israel, we cannot discount the teachings he brought to establish the
way, the truth and the life.

We regard and accept him as a real messenger of God whose ways and
belief inevitably coincide with ours as illustrated by the last
Prophet including all the Prophets before him (Peace and blessing be
upon them all).

Yes, Prophet Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon him) was not a
Christian for he did not introduce Christianity to the world, as
evidenced by what he said in Matthew 5:17 "Do not think that I have
come to destroy the Law or the prophets. I have come not to destroy,
but to fulfill." Instead, he confirmed the teachings preceding him,
which was the Law set by Prophet Moses (Peace and blessing be upon
him). A guidance that is sanctioned by and is also analogous with that
of Islam, having been anchored upon monotheism, its inherent bedrock
which happens to be every other prophet's battlecry and message.

Moreover, Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon him) further uttered words
which prove that his mission was not yet complete and that another
Prophet was to come after him to finalize the message, the guidance or
the revelation itself, when he prophesied in John 16:7-14.

"Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go
away; for if I do not go away, the helper will not come to you; but if
I depart, I will send Him to you, and when He has come, He will
convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: of
sin, because they do not believe in me; of righteousness, because I go
to my father and you see me no more; of judgment, because the ruler of
the world is judged. I still have many things to say to you, but you
cannot bear them now. However, when He, the spirit of truth, has come,
He will guide you into all truth. For He will not speak of his own
authority; but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you
things to come. He will glorify me. He will take what is of mine and
declare it to you."

The concluder of this message was neither The Holy Spirit nor Paul
himself, as some Christians believe or were made to believe. He was
Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him), the only true Prophet who
succeeded Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon him).

Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) was the sole Prophet who
brought with him a complete, comprehensive and final revelation from
the Creator.

This divine manifestation has been preserved as it was revealed to him
originally, challenging the whole world to come up with even just one
chapter like it. Such is the provocation and appeal, which frustrated
those who were at the other end of the moral and spiritual spectrum
during the Prophet's time including the rest of their kind today. As
God said in Chapter 2:2-5 of the Holy Qur'an (which is translated as
follows):

"This is the Book: In it is guidance sure, without doubt, To those who
fear26 Allah; Who believe in the Unseen, Are steadfast in prayer, and
spend out of what We Have provided for them; And who believe in the
Revelation Sent thee, And sent before thy time, And (in their hearts)
Have the assurance of the Hereafter, They are on (true guidance). From
their Lord and it is these who will prosper."

It is the last testament of faith addressed to the whole world
embodying complete light and guidance as well as the conviction of
sin, a revelation that embodies Islam.

Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon him) thru Matthew, chapter 7 verse
15 of the Bible, cautioned people regarding the need to discern the
false prophets from the genuine ones via a specific criterion, the
same standard of measure that we ask you to gauge prophet Muhammad
(Peace and blessing be upon him) and his teachings against with:

"Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing,
but inwardly, they are ferocious wolves. By their fruit you will
recognize them."

Give yourself a chance to know the true Religion of God including all
His Prophets and discover the difference, for "Only the truth shall
set you free". You've got nothing to lose, but once you understand and
accept, you've got your whole life to gain!

Biblical Excerpts As Proofs Of Islam's Conformity With The Religion Of
Jesus

Here are some points to consider regarding Jesus, Muhammad (Peace and
blessing be upon them) and the Muslims, which are indeed one in the
essence of Islam. The following verses extracted from today's Bibles
collectively support our claim as mentioned above.

We pray that such accounts will appeal to your senses as well as
reconcile you with the truth, thus enlightening you in the process to
the remaining facts still existent in the present versions of the
Bible.

They are as follows:

I. BELIEF IN THE ONENESS OF GOD (ALLAH):
Jesus was very explicit in his words about the "Unity of God" instead
of the "Holy Trinity" which he never said nor preached in his
lifetime:

1. Matthew 4:10 Then Jesus said to him, "Away with you Satan! it is
written:" you shall worship the Lord your God, and him only you shall
serve".

2. Mark 12:29 Jesus answered him. "The first of all the commandments
is: Hear O Israel! The Lord our God, the Lord is one".

3. Isiah 43:10-11 "Before me there was no God formed, nor shall there
be after me. I, even I, am the Lord; and beside me there is no
savior."

4. John 17:3 "And this is eternal life, that they may know you, the
only true God, and of Jesus Christ whom you have sent".

II. GOOD DEEDS:

A. Carrying out Prayer (Prostration):

The only people in the whole world today who pray like Jesus (Peace
and blessing be upon him), and all the other prophets are the
Muslims:

1. Matthew 26:39 "He (Jesus) went a little farther and fell on his
face, and prayed, O my father, if it is possible, let this cup pass
from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as you will".

2. Psalm 55:17 "Evening and morning and at noon, I will pray and cry
aloud: and He shall hear my voice".

3. Numbers 20:6 "So Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the
assembly to the door of the tabernacle of meeting, and they fell on
their faces. And the glory of the Lord appeared to them".



B. FASTING:

Islam obliges Muslims to fast just as Jesus and the prophets did
during their tenure in the world:


1. Matthew 4:2 "And when he (Jesus) had fasted forty days and forty
nights, he was afterward hungry".

2. Exodus 34: 28 "And he (Moses) was there with the Lord forty days
and forty nights; he neither ate bread nor drank water".

3. Matthew 6:16 "Moreover when you fast, be not as the hypocrites,
with a sad countenance; for they disfigure their faces, that they may
appear to men to be fasting. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their
reward".





C. CHARITY:

Islam obliges Muslims to pay charity, just as Jesus urged his
constituents in his time:


1. Matthew 6:3-4 "But when you do a charitable deed, do not let your
left hand know what your right hand is doing, that your charitable
deed may be in secret; and your father who sees in secret will himself
reward you openly."


D. PILGRIMAGE TO MACA/BACA:

Muslims perform pilgrimage (Hajj) like the prophets before them to the
first house of worship (Ka'bah) in Maca, also known as Baca, which was
built by Abraham, the father of all the prophets and his son Ishmael.


1. Psalm 84:5-6 "Blessed is the man whose strength is in You, Whose
heart is set on pilgrimage. As they pass through the valley of Baca,
They make it a spring; the rain also covers it with pools".

E. GREETINGS:

Muslims greet each other by saying: Peace be with you (As-salam
'Alaykum), the same way Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon him) greeted
people during his ministry on earth:


1. Luke 24:36 "Now as they said these things, Jesus himself stood in
the midst of them, and said to them, "Peace to you".

2. John 20:19 "Then, the same day at evening, being the first day of
the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled,
for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and said to
them, "Peace be with you".

Conclusion

We abide with God (Allah) when He tells us in His Holy Book (Quran)
that if anyone speaks THE TRUTH, let him produce THE EVIDENCE as
mentioned in chapter 2:111(which is translated as follows):

"...Say: Produce your proof if ye are truthful."

In the same breadth, we want you to realize that what we have just
deliberated are but some of the many practices that the true believers
emulate. They are ways and manners which are reflective as well as
representative of the genuine teachings of Jesus (Peace and blessing
be upon him) and even more so with Muhammad (Peace and blessing be
upon him).

Likewise, the same very practices should serve as sound proofs to help
you realize the truthfulness of our claim, that indeed, there is only
one way leading to the true salvation, and that is ISLAM.

As Allah says thru chapter 5: Verse 19 of the Holy Quran (which is
translated as follows):

" O People of the Scripture (Jews and Christians)! Now has come to you
Our Messenger (Muhammad) making (things) clear unto you, after a break
in (the series of) Messengers, lest you say: "There came unto us no
bringer of glad tidings and no Warner". But now has come unto you a
bringer of glad tidings and a warner. And Allah is able to do all
things."

He further says in Verse 77 of the same chapter (which is translated
as follows): "Say (O Muhammad): "O people of the Scripture (Jews and
Christians)! Exceed not the limits in your religion (by believing in
something) other than the truth, and do not follow the vain desires of
people who went astray in times gone by, and who misled many, and
strayed (themselves) from the Right Path."

We in our capacity had presented the preceding facts in order to
enlighten you only, and it is up to you to make the next move.

If you really treasure your salvation in the hereafter that much, and
desire an eternal life of rewards over an eternal existence of
punishment, then the choice must be clear by now. We advice you to act
soon enough, before it's too late, for no one ever knows when or where
he or she is going to die---death being like a thief that comes in the
middle of the night!

As for your guidance to the truth, you should ask directly from the
CREATOR--- the One and Only, the Absolute, the Unlimited and the One
who begets not, nor is He begotten. Seek it from Him who has no equal
or no one comparable with. Pursue it from the Only One who Knows our
intention and what we have in our hearts, with all your humility,
sincerity and honesty. Turn your face to Him who is in the heaven,
above His throne, ultimately seeking for His help and direction!


As they say: "Ask and you will receive, seek and you will find, knock
and the door will be opened up to you."

We will be looking forward to your Real SALVATION !!!

Dear brother in Humanity,

There is no compulsion for a person to accept the TRUTH, but it is
certainly a shame upon the human intellect when a man or woman is not
even interested in determining the TRUTH!

Islam teaches that our CREATOR has given human beings the faculty of
reason. Therefore it is incumbent upon them to reason things out
objectively and systematically for everyone to contemplate, to
question and to reflect.

Nobody should press you to make a hasty decision to accept any of the
teachings of Islam, for Islam teaches that human beings should be
given the freedom to choose. Even when a person is faced with the
TRUTH, there is no compulsion upon him to embrace it.

But before you begin to form an opinion about Islam, ask yourself
whether your existing knowledge of it is thorough enough. Examine
whether that knowledge has been obtained through third party sources
who themselves have probably been exposed to only random glimpses of
Islamic writings and have yet to reason on Islam objectively and
systematically themselves.

Is it fair that one should form an opinion about the taste of a
particular dish just by a mere hearsay from others who may not have
actually tasted the dish themselves?

Similarly, you should find out for yourself about Islam from reliable
sources and not only taste it, but rather digest it very well before
you form an opinion of it. That would be an intellectual approach to
the TRUTH.

In making your next move to the Religion of TRUTH, Islam will
continually reassure you that your rights to freedom of choice and
freedom to use that God-given faculty of thought and reason will be
respected. For everyone has that individual will, no one else can take
away that will and force you to submit to the will of our CREATOR, you
have to find out and make that decision yourself. May your
intellectual journey towards the TRUTH be a pleasant one...

Heh.

I was at a Flea Market years ago and got put 'on the cans' (1) by a
Dianetics rep.

I kept loosening my grip which caused him to turn up the sensitivity.
Discovered I could make the meter read whatever value I wanted.
Big fun. So much for their 'scientific' approach.
