Wow! Got a Chris Matthews thrill running down my legs. These are the kinds of debates I love reading, even if at the end a compromise isn't reached and no middle ground may be found.
At least people are exposed to the differences and can then decide what they believe and which way they want to follow or not follow at all. Plus it's very educational and sharpens the mind.
The following is something I copied down a few years ago. If there are errors, it's my fault. I was taking notes as fast as I could and my note taking was pretty hard to read later.
Jesus and the Koran by an ex-Muslim.
The Koran has 114 chapters and 6666 verses. (Depending on the version)
The Prophet Mohammed is mentioned in four places. (Five, he's called Ahmad once)
The "Prophet" Jesus is mentioned in 25 places. (35, 27 as Jesus and 8 as Messiah)
There are no Muslim women names mentioned in the Koran. (50/50, 24 pious women are mention by family names, not first names)
Only one woman is mentioned in the Koran by name. True, Mariam (Mary) the mother of Jesus.
Chapter 3 mentions the family of Mariam.
Chapter 19 again mentions Mariam.
Mariam never committed a sin and was a lifelong virgin. (not found online)
Chapter 50 v23, Mariam went to Heaven in her physical body. (not found online)
Chapter 3 v45-55 - 10 points concerning Jesus:
1. Jesus is the Word of God. (true)
2. Jesus is the Spirit of God. (true)
3. Jesus is the Christ/Messiah. (true)
4. Jesus spoke at a very early age. (true)
5. Jesus created a live bird from mud and it flew away. (true)
6. Cured a blind man and a man from leprosy. (true)
7. Gave life to dead people. (true)
8. Jesus went to Heaven and is still alive and will return. (not found online)
9. Mohammed is not the Word, or the Spirit, never gave life to anything, never healed anyone, never raised anyone from the dead, and no one knows where he went after death or if he is coming back.
10. Both are prophets, but Jesus is greater than Mohammed.
A trick question he said to ask all Muslims:
Which is greater? The Word or the Creator?
If you say the Word of God is greater, then Jesus is greater than God.
If you say God is greater, how could He create the world without the Word? He spoke and it was so.
If God can see without eyes, hear without ears, talk without a tongue, then He can have a son without a wife.
Chapter 10:94, if you doubt the Koran go read/follow the Torah or people of the book. (true)
The beginning of Islam had four Holy Books, The Torah, Psalms, Bible, and Quran. Officially only the Quran survives today. I have read the things mentioned above as 'not found online' in other places, just can no longer cite or find them.
The rest is based on my "recent" research. I once had better documentation but that data has been lost.
Mohammed died @632. The Al-Aqsa Mosque wasn't built until 638, or 691 depending on who you are reading. During Mohammed's day, Mecca was the location of the Holy Mosque and the furthermost mosque was a two days walk west of Mecca and was called Al-Aska (sp).
A ruler by the name of Caliph Omar or Malik depending on who you are reading ruled Damascus and tried to divert power from Mecca to someplace closer and built the original Al-Aqsa mosque so his people didn't have to travel so far to Mecca each year which was very expensive and dangerous. It eventually fell into ruin.
Then in the 12th century, Saladin made it holy after defeating the Crusaders and rebuilt it.
Muslims still prayed facing Mecca. Later the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem told Hitler that he would support him if after the war he would slay all the Jews in Palestine. His name was "Haj" Amin al-Husseini and was the uncle of Arafat born in Cairo, Egypt. Arafat, named Rauf al-Qudwa-al Husseini moved to Syria and was kicked out, then Jordan and was kicked out, then to Jerusalem where he gained the support of Egyptian president Nassar who established the PLO.
The Imans/Mullahs edit the Quran to suit their purposes. If they didn't there would not be Sunni and Shia sects. A power struggle, between Arab rulers. The only ploy left that unites them is the Dome of the Rock and hatred of Jews. That is starting to crack with Presidents Trump and Netanyahu. Rumors of the Trump peace plan is that control of the Temple Mount will be taken from Jordan and over to the Saudi's. Then the Saudi's will allow a 3rd Temple to be rebuilt on the Temple Mount to co-exist with the Dome of the Rock. Christians believe peace will last as long as Israel has fences. When the fences come down and the anti-Christ desecrates the Temple, the truce and peace are over according to the Bible. The battle of Armageddon is said to be on the plains of Meggido but I think its the staging area of the final battle for Jerusalem. Just my personal opinion.
In my last move, my family Bible and Koran came up missing plus a lot of other books I treasured. Feedback is encouraged.
