Islam is the antithesis of Christianity, the opposite in so many ways.
Shahada – Vow of Islam
The vow of Islam, the Shahada:
There is no god but Allah and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah.
Shahada, Wikipedia
Notice the denial of god, replaced with “Allah”, an Arabic name that comes from Muhammad’s context. Muhammad didn’t know that the name of GOD is YHWH or “I AM”. Also note that Muhammad is called “the messenger”, as in the only messenger, not the last or ultimate messenger, or seal of the prophets.
Was Adam, Moses or Jesus a messenger of “Allah’? Not according to the shahada. Yet, all three are named in the Koran.
Even Paul is a great messenger of “Allah” according to Muhammad in his Koran:
36:13 And present to them an example: the people of the city, when the messengers came to it – 14 When We sent to them two but they denied them, so We strengthened [them] with a third, and they said, “Indeed, we are messengers to you.”
Koran 36:13-14
The names of the first two Messengers were Sham`un and Yuhanna, and the name of the third was Bulus, and the city was Antioch (Antakiyah).
Tafsir Ibn Kathir, 36:13
“Bulus” is Paul.
Even Mary, the mother of Jesus, is a prophet in the Koran, speaking with the voice of Muhammad.
Allah ≠ GOD
Many Muslims will claim that Allah is GOD, while some Muslim apologists admit the truth that the GOD of Christians isn’t Allah with “your god”. In the Koran, Allah lacks Omniscience, Omnipotence, Omnibenevolence and Omnipresence. Muhammad’s Allah lacks wisdom, power and love and its position, as an idol, corresponds to the Kaaba in Muhammad’s home, Mecca.
Qibla – Direction of Prayer
Muslims bow, prostrate and pray to Allah and Muhammad and the black stones 5× daily. This is obvious idolatry, contradicting Christianity and Judaism.
Public vs Private Prayer
Jesus condemns public prayer:
And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others.
Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.
NIV Matthew 6:5
Jesus says to make prayer private:
But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
NIV Matthew 6:6
Babbling
Islamic prayer is literally babbling for Muslims who can’t speak Arabic. This is forbidden in Christianity:
And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words.
NIV Matthew 6:7
Public Feasting and Fasting
Muslims publicly fast during the day and feast at night. This is an expression of false piety and pride. Jesus condemns this practice:
6:16 “When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show others they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 17 But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, 18 so that it will not be obvious to others that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
NIV Matthew 6:16-18
Conclusion
This is just some of the ways that Islam contradicts Christianity and Judaism, showing it’s a pagan cult, devoted to idols, Allah and Muhammad.
Muhammad was a false prophet, for a false god, Allah, for a false religion, Islam, without even a false book, the Koran.
