What was the Religion of Abraham?

[neuwafer]

...by definition.... laughable. You don't know your facts, your logic goes around in circles and there are holes in your examples big enough to drive a truck through. You are young and enthusiastic I will give you that Gemal. Be wise and read your "recitations" and you will find that the established traditions of the pagan Arabs are continued by M in the worship of "Allah". All M did was clear out the kabbah for his family god, the moon-god "Sin", hence all the decor on top of mosq

- Judaism is much more accepting of others. We don't believe that anyone who doesn't follow it cant get into heaven. EVEN IF someone follows a wrong religion but has other good things about them, you think G-D isn't merciful and doesn't take everything into consideration? G-D didn't create things and people to eventually destroy them. That being said evil people do get punished and the righteous do get rewarded. The Seal of G-D is Truth.G-D is also merciful, slow to Anger,Abundant in Kindness.

[extazy17]

- Anyone (not only an Israelite) can follow the Torah it is open to all who come for it sincerely.

- Even if one doesn't become Jewish they can get into the World to Come. They have to follow the 7 Noahide laws for all nations. ( search it).

[extazy17]

...... Yitzhak and Israel (and their children) did fulfill the Torah's commands even though they weren't obligated (binded to do soo with the Oath taken generations later as a group). It would be in the same category as a non-Jew today keeping some commandments for example charity, etc. which is a praiseworthy thing to do for them but not something obligatory (as the 7 Noahide laws are).

[extazy17]

Every Jew is the son of G-d (not literally) but G-d writes you are the children of G-D. About Abraham being Jewish- Its a YES and NO. First of all people can and do convert. Officially the first Jews weren't even Yitzhak or Yakov- it was the Israelites (and some others also) who stood together on Mt. Sinai with Moses and received the Torah publicly from G-D. The obligation of those before were the same as non-Jews today- follow the 7 Noahide Laws. BUT with that being said Avraham.....

[StrapOnDildoSexRulez]

All religions sucks. Espeically islam.

stop spamming, you will never make anybody convert to islam by asking atheists like this

[EnnCamp]

Bissmila, Assulamu Alaiykum brother. Beautiful topic. Please use a lepel mike, so that we all can hear the great message of Allah(SW). Shurkron for making this video. Allah Hafiz

Abram was a chalden

[bmda106]

lol i like it how all regious people use such precise definitions when it suits them, but completely disguard that logic when it does not.

so tell me; why did the eternal god allow men to worship fake idles before abraham? didnt he really care?

how about this: religion is really about power to men. the real meaning of christianity is "be good, pay your tax and die quietly" and the meaning of islam is jihad

[00ismaeL001]

Muslim's believe that Muhammad was a prophet of God.

Yet Muhammad was possessed by Shaytaan for 6 months and totally out of it for 40 days. During that time Muhammad bow down and prayed to the Moon Gods.

Muhammad ROBBED caravans. Murdered the men, and kidnapped the women.

So how could this man be a prophet of God if he was POSSESSED by Shaytaanic black magic?

[fishintheflow]

Is it about labels? Or is it about beliefs and practices; did, for example, Abraham pray five times a day in a certain direction? I've never seen evidence or testimony that he did.

I would love to know what religion Abraham practiced....but there is no reason to think his practices were remotely comparable to those of modern day Islam. If you can show me evidence or testimony to the contrary (and not from the Quran or Hadith) please do so.

[sbirtoman]

coolguymuslim, stop referencing inaccuracies which confounded Muslims do. A well read Muslim has not only read the Quran but also referenced the Bible which you as a Muslim are supposed to do according to the Quran in the event that you are still confounded. There you will find the true Jesus is.

[ilUmichaela]

i have a few problems with your deductions. Jesus is the son of god. but thats my faith talking.

[Jshmelo]

Abraham is a FAIRYTALE.

[ohmmos]

Yes everyone belive that abraham is a jew and he is called the father of profits

[AFL489]

I think you mean "prophets"

Profit: making money off a product

Prophet: a religious figure.

[olubori23]

this guy has no clue what he's talking about, he's as confused as the religion he's trying to defend. what has abraham got to do with islam? everybody knows, apart from some ignorant few, that abraham is a jew and infact the first person to be refered to as a hebrew? where did this rantler get his history? Muhamed was a confused human being and an author of confusion. not convinced? look at islam! everywhere islam shows up peace vacates the room. still not convinced? look at northern nigeria!

[destroso]

he's confused because Islam only comes into existence in the 7th century AD. He obviously has no understanding of the old or new testament. Islam is a cult branched of Judaism, which is completed in Christ as the bible says, those who believe in Christ are true Jews, and he thinks he accepts all these things but he will never under his own power or works be fit for a perfect God, pray for him.

Reference to Abraham of the Jews much better than the Arabs' claims lineage to Abraham. Jews have a clear chain from generation to generation, with names, to Abraham. Arabs have nothing. Jews have evidence throughout history, the Arabs have nothing. Jews were the prophets, the Arabs have nothing. Jews accepted the Torah revelation directly from God. Arabs received a psychopath to hear voices of demons in his head .:))))

[moti4love]

" What was the Religion of Abraham?"

- Instead of rattling us stories and explanations. Why do not

Ask the descendants of Abraham???

The Jews. :)))

[DanielThomasVideos]

And my conclusion is that there is no God

[DanielThomasVideos]

all the "prophets" are unverifiable who spoke to God alone and have no one to verify there story. There for id say that they were either sycho or stupid, all of them

[joshuarivera86]

religion is crap.

[fl00ki]

but crap is more useful

[sonix3d]

My only thought: If you believe Jesus was a messenger, why don't you believe in all the teachings of the bible? Wouldn't that be choosing which parts of his message you wanted to believe?

[cmelbouzaidi]

Assalamu alaikoum, good job brother. The sound is a bit muffled as stated below but the points are wonderful. Jazak Allahu Khair, wassalam.

[rghakeem]

salaam...the sound on this video is a little muffled! but good job!

Part 5: You had talked about the major creed of Islam, but you failed to bring up what the Jews believe. They also believe in the existence of only one deity, and they believe in His "oneness". The Jews have the Šəmaʿ in which they say the following:

Šəmaʿ Yiśrāʾēl YHWH ʾĕlōhênû YHWH ʾeḥāḏ

"Hear [O] Israel; YHWH [is] our deity; YHWH [is] one." - Deut. 6:4

So please explain.

[SubZero7th]

Part 4: Just because the Jews consider themselves the "chosen people" does not mean that they believe salvation is only for them. If you learn a bit about what Jews actually believe instead of going by what the heretical Jews of Madīnaʰ believed as mentioned in the Qurʾān, you would know that the Jews believe that non-Jews have a place in the "world to come" by observing the 7 Laws of Noah or by converting to Judaism.

[LothairOfLorraine]

As a matter of fact, it is God who considers the Jews his 'chosen people' but the the only nation saved by his grace. In fact, Moses' father-in-law was a Priest of Midian and after the Exodus, Jethro showed himnself to be an important advisor to Moses, and attended sacrificial feasts [Ex 18].

Salvation ins't only FOR the Jews, but it is only FROM the Jews. That would leave Muhammad out of the Propehtic Line, and while I am sure Muslims are pious and faithful, they follow an imposter.

[SubZero7th]

From what I understand, the Children of Israel were chosen by YHWH to be a nation of priests and to follow the 613 Miṣwōṯ of the Tôrâ.

Now, if you're trying to imply that there were only Israelite prophets, that's not true according to Judaism. You have "gentile" prophets such as Bilʿām. As for Muḥammad, regardless of whether or not he's a true prophet, it wouldn't change the fact that Jews don't consider him a part of Judaism. Same thing with Yēšûªʿ.

[LothairOfLorraine]

I never said that all Prophets were Israelites, at least not until the establishment of the Davidic Kingdom. Once the Davidic Line was established, all Prophets were Israelites. So, there is a sequence in the timeline that you may be ignoring.

Balaam isn't a good example, as he is evidently cursed in both the NT and in some Rabbinic literature.

That fact that some Prophets [Job] and other gentiles [Jethro] played such a valuable role could in no way be evidence that Muhammad was a Prophet.

[SubZero7th]

"Once the Davidic Line was established, all Prophets were Israelites."

Where'd you learn this from?

"Balaam isn't a good example, as he is evidently cursed in both the NT and in some Rabbinic literature."

Does that change the fact that Jews consider him to be a gentile prophet?

"That fact that some Prophets [Job] and other gentiles [Jethro] played such a valuable role could in no way be evidence that Muhammad was a Prophet."

Since when is Job an Israelite prophet?

[SubZero7th]

Note: Perhaps I shouldn't have said "Israelite", but just "prophet". Either way, I know that Muslims consider him a prophet, but the Book of Job is in the Writings section of the Tanakh. As for Muḥammad, I don't know, and I'm not too concerned. Either way, this video has issues within its content. I hope Bilal can do some replies.

[LothairOfLorraine]

I really couldn't hear the presentation, so my own remarks were following up on these text comments.

A few things. One, Balaam was not a Prophet in the way you seem to be suggesting from your comments. Baal had 400 prophets too. So, let's understand that the term 'prophet' can be dintinguised from the office of 'Prophet'. So, that effects how were are to understand the man's specific role in relation to his peers. There were 'prophets' and then there were 'Prophets of Israel'.

[SubZero7th]

Did you try turning the volume all the way up? That's what I had to do in order to listen to what Bilal had to say.

From what I understand about Balaam and other gentile prophets, they were sent only to their respective peoples, but they were inferior to Israelite prophets in their prophetic ability.

[SubZero7th]

Part 3: You seem to misunderstand what it means by "chosen people" in regards to the Jews. They were chosen by YHWH to observe the Tôrâ by keeping its commandments. They believe that YHWH is their deity and that He is the true deity.

On the other hand, you said that the major creed of a Muslim is that there is no god but Allāh and that Muḥammad is the messenger of Allāh. The Jews believe that YHWH is the God of Abraham, and if that's true, Islam is not his religion.

[SubZero7th]

Part 2: The religions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam did not exist during the time of Abraham, so he would not be a Jew, Christian, or Muslim in the strictest sense of the terms. However, in a loose and general sense of the terms, he could be considered a Jew or a Muslim if he truly existed and was a monotheist. A person can be Jewish by simply converting to Judaism and observing the Tôrâ. A Jew CAN apostate from Judaism by abandoning the observance of the Tôrâ.

[SubZero7th]

Part 1: Hey Bilal. It's good to see a new video from you. You said that Judaism is named after Isaac and that the Jews call Isaac by the name ʾIsrāʾīl. That's false. Judaism is named after Judah, one of the grandchildren of Isaac. Isaac is not ʾIsrāʾīl. Jacob is Israel. ʾIsrāʾīl is the Arabicised (sp?) form of Yiśrāʾēl, the name that YHWH gave to Jacob. Just because a religion is named after someone does not mean that the validity of that religion is affected.
