What is Islam? Explanation of the religion of Islam.

[freakos123]

In islam its haram to kill anyone and to hurt anyone... and if another person has another religon dosent mean that a muslim should kill him for that... quran sais evry human has the right to belive in what they want.. these terrorist killing humans wit other religon isnt real muslims.. they misunderstood the holy kitab ...and like half of the terrorist that say there muslims have not even readen the quran

[Jameson10314]

No group of people have been wrongly vilified. For the most part people who follow this religion conduct themselves in a very admirable way.

[1329Max]

praise be to ALLAH!!! and Islam is the only way to be! p.s. i was cristian in a past btw.

[pangaea611]

@1329Max what made you change from cristian?

[pangaea611]

@1329Max what made you change from Christian? it's hard to tell the difference.. it is very similar, no?

[ArgueExplain]

Islam sounds very similar to the other two Abrahamic religions.  I didn't know Islam accepted the Torah and Bible in addition to the Koran.

Thank you for explaining this belief.

Why do you always say "peace be upon him" when referenceing the prophets? Is that a religious act, or a cultural habit?

[Hosedinho]

Yes brother we have to say it because it is a religious act. we say moses peace be upon him, jesus peace be upon him and muhamed peace be upon him... they are all messangers of god delivering one message,, without them we would have been lost, so the least we can do is say peace be upon them all. hope that answers ur question brother

[ilikezappa]

NO , the ignorant will believe that Hell exists Mr Matt5.

PS Oppression ? that means your women should defend themselves from you I think , as you seem to treat them like shit.

[daybyday42]

My husband and I are friends with a Muslim couple for quite a few years now but we never speak about our beliefs. I am starting to think they think we should die because we don't agree with their, your Allah. Why can't we just live our lives and be friends and be judged in the end by God.

[daybyday42]

Does Allah say to kill those who do not follow him? This is what I hear the Muslims say all the time. I am Christian I believe in Jesus Christ. One of our commandments says "Thou shalt not kill" which seems quite obvious to me. Why would your Allah say to kill people that want to believe in something else? Why not let himmm judge when we die? Why would he make his people shed blood for him? Your people that always call for Jihad has made me almost intolerable to Muslims.

[MrBigslash]

@daybyday42 aloha my bro or sis anything lol trust me what u say abt islam is wrong u dont understand it ^_^ viva islam viva jesus viva :p

[Y0UNGR1DDL3z]

so u'r sayin if u'r not a muslim on judgement day all the non muslims will get punished?

[Amco86]

Yes, except those who didnt know the truth, actually for those who didnt hear anything about Islam, Muhammed, peace be upon him. But, you are not from those people, you had heard about Islam, Muhammed, pbh.

[ilikezappa]

Yes , the Christians tell you that too , and , like Muslims , they can offer you no evidence that there will be a judgement day , just some old stories. It is a bit dismal

[harleybristowabc]

one of your little messengers tryed to get me join this religion through youtube

no chance

I lol'd

[onlyallah1]

no one is pleading you !!!!!!!

its called freewill.

hmmmmm you dont know what is a messanger of the heavens and the earth.

we muslims just think because we have good intensions all the people do muslims open your eyes they just waste our time

[harleybristowabc]

yes, they are, and he was not a messiah, he was a crazed, religion junkie

honestly, people like this make your religion look worse than scientology

but i wouldnt go so far as to say it was stupid, it has rules that guide you to live a good, peaceful life

if i dont want to join, leave me alone

[ilikezappa]

This man is trying to get grown ups to believe in Angels, with a straight face.

Away with your primitive superstitions. Islam is just as silly as Christianity.

The world needs neither........

[onlyallah1]

the world ....i do need islam

islam teaches also that no one is allowed to have extras and if we all followe dthose laws there would not be poverty ... i dont have the parents who are in position to give me advice

i see islam as the only thing that can teach me how to live without getting high or be a whore etc..

[ilikezappa]

You need a priest to tell you that taking drugs or being a whore is not a good idea? I could have told you that mate

[onlyallah1]

you sent this message to me...im muslim I DONT NEED PRIESTS we only need Allah

[onlyallah1]

lets get one thing straight all i or we muslims are doung is defending our religion no one is inviting you

i am not

BE THE WAY YOU WANT TO BE WE ARE ALL GIVEN FREE WILL

[harleybristowabc]

"no one is pleading you !!!!!!!"

said the guy that sent me 6 private messages about how i will be judged when armaggedon comes

please...

[onlyallah1]

are you being sarcastic because we muslims dont like to waste our time

actually were not allowed to waste our time our responsability is only 1 when someone says or trys to prove islam wrong to defend it

2 just tell people what we believe if they ask

please tell me why do you athiests bug us? we already have enough being accused as terrorists dont bite us we wont bite back simple same goes for christians and we muslims do love the nature and science so athiests we have something in common

[harleybristowabc]

what do us atheists bug you? us atheists keep ourselves to ourselves

it was your PM that started this

Its not the story, its the guide, which is why I follow the rules of Christianity, despite my knowledge of science, regardless of the lame story's about miracles. I'm in it for the commandments because they GUIDE.

As for the sarcasm, it wasn't, you told me "The day of reckoning" and judgement will come for me.

[onlyallah1]

then my bad i thaught that you or whomever said something first to whom i replied

please forgive me :)

[onlyallah1]

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful

Say: He is Allah, the One! (1)

Allah, the eternally Besought of all! (2)

He begetteth not nor was begotten. (3)

And there is none comparable unto Him. (4)

[terroriste]

In the coran mohamed telling his people to folow jesus path isnt that right? please som1 recitfy me if im wrong and dont talk if you dont know what i am talking about pliz

[onlyallah1]

muhamad in the quran doesn tell people anything, the quran is the literal word of god from one man. but the bible is a compilation of different books over a period of many years from various styles of writing so my friend PLEASE QUOTE FIRST ITS CALLED EVIDENCE

[ilikezappa]

Anyone telling you that you will live after you die should be challenged as they have zero evidence. Anyone who tells you that the creator of the heavens and the Earth is a conscious entity , ask then for their evidence. This is the same as Christianity . Stone age Mythology. Question it ! Day of judgement ? Rubbish. Angels ? Grow up. Real some science

[ilikezappa]

Read some science (that should say)

I listened to this guy with a sense of dispair that he should propogate such falsehoods. When he started trying to tell me that Angels are real I wrote him off completely

[onlyallah1]

this is your evidence:but the conclusion is always this: It just happened. Life happened. The universe happened. We happened.

[farsara]

was a mistake of God  or humans we should love jews and chritian too

how come on earth hiduisn come on earth

[Gungfuwarrior]

All religions that spawned from the Torah are really worship of the egyptian god AMON -RA. Everytime you say "AMEN" you praise his name. Yahweh, Allah, ALL LIES! Stop wasting your lives on fictional characters.

[onlyallah1]

DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY BOOKS WE HAD BEFORE THE QURAN please listen to the man first " the previous books existed, the man was enthrusted to take care of them , but changes occured" thats the whole purpose of the quran

[Gungfuwarrior]

Yep I know, your just as deluded as christians. Why would god let man get it wrong in the first place. Theistic determination, allah has a plan & what he want happens, right? Why did he let man misinterpret? Why didn't he correct them BEFORE the quran? You all are wasting your lives on stories no more relevant than the trials of Hercules.

[ilikezappa]

or the trials of OJ....

[onlyallah1]

..some manners..its called again freewill ...and again " the previous books the man was enthrusted to take care of them but changes occured because the man has freewill and the brain to decide to do this or that but god says no one is able to change allahs words neither does allah change his promise or his words so its all a test on a person whatever look were not stupid i have questioned my self this we dont just wake p and believe in Allah ok thats far from the truth hint commen sence etc..

[harleybristowabc]

DURKA DURKA, MOHAMMAD JI HAD

[onlyallah1]

The night, the day, the sun, the moon, are only a few of His signs. Do not bow down in worship to the sun or the moon, but bow down to God who created them, if it is truly Him that you worship. (41:37)

where did the pagans get these tradisions from they fasted during the month of ramadan etc.. again how many books and prophets did we have before muhammad my friend? all these religions is because people cant see god

say In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful

[StandUpForISRAEL]

He says "Allah is most merciful so we have to be merciful to each other." Then why is there no compulsion in Islam? If you leave Islam them Islam calls for your death...Is that mercy? I think not. Is that unconditional love? No, it is just the oppesite.

[Blackfish100]

Learn to spell and interpret religions better douche bag!

[abidadar]

Mashallah

i pray that may i learn much knowldge about islam so i can disscuss here

may Allah makes us to act as he wants

ameen

[mutamusmaximus]

Why does Islam have the five pillars? God created everything, He doesn't need anything from anyone. He is the only One that can do good. He commands all people to repent and trust in the Saviour. I'm sorry but Islam is a work righteous religion. God doesn't want a religion which creates robots to do all the right things. He wants a relationship.

[draydrone]

he wants to see if we are able to worship him and thank him and it isnt making robots

we worship and work hard to please god to show gratitude he has givin us everything but we act like we own our bodies our hous our clothes

everything is gods

[mutamusmaximus]

Very true. Everything is God's. We don't own anything. Though, he already knows we can worship Him. Come on He's God. He knows all. He wants a relationship. He wants true worship and glory. It's our sins that separates us from Him. We all broke His Holy and Just Law. There is no amount of work we can do to atone for our sins. All our works are as filthy rags to God. How can imperfect works be a payment for a Perfect Law? No matter what it seems we are pretty hopeless by ourselves.

[draydrone]

but it states very clearly in the quran that god is the most forgiving and most loving

he is most merciful

imagine the mothers love and forgivness to a son

god has much more mercy to people than that

if u ask for ur soul to be cleansed and u give intention to never sin again even if u know u cant u can be forgiven

its all about intention and trying to please god

that is how u earn heaven not by saying we our hopless just give up

because thats a ticket straight to hell if u just give up

[mutamusmaximus]

Yup, God is merciful. Do you know what he did for you. He didn't give us rules to follow to do to get saved. I mean come on thats like saying, "I broke all these Laws and now I'm really sorry, I know your merciful God so please forgive me." Now, what should God do? Should He listen to the testimony and be loving and forgiving or should He punish the Law breaker. God is righteous and must punish the wicked. We all have broken the Law of Moses. We all deserve punishment.

[draydrone]

like a said its true intention and god knows what everyone feels

[BackwardsFuture]

Just curious,

What is this sin we all are guilty of?

Because all I can remember is being born an innocent baby like everyone else, ignorant of the world.

[jahdallah]

It is not a sin. It is a war between good and evil, and one of the two must win. It s in every human being.

[Azzara7]

BackwardsFuture - So what happens after that?Are u still a baby??Innocent?? Never made mistakes??

[Nebulous1982]

We need to purify to have a relationship with God. In islam , it's all about approaching God with a pure mind , a pure body , and a pure heart. Adhering to the ways of islam is what keeps the soul purified. Pure souls are drawn closer to God , and this is the true way of having a Relationship with Him. Do you really believe that a christian who sleeps around , who drinks and smokes weed , who does not care about other people is the same another christian who does good? It's about what you DO.

[mutamusmaximus]

Now how do you get purified? By good works? I'm sorry but all our finite works won't atone for our infinitely punishable sin. Both, Christians deserve to be in Hell. We all are guilty. We need atonement that only God can provide.

[Nebulous1982]

Wow! No animals = get sent to hell for eternity! Are we still talking about the God of Abraham (pbuh)? It looks like you are talking about a god who wants to see flesh and blood of animals , otherwise you gonna be doomed! I don't think you realise how illogical(understated!!) you are , just to justify worshipping jesus(pbuh)...Imagine if you lived in the times of Noah (pbuh) and there would be no animals because of some disease that would wipe out all cattle. :-0 Who would you have to slaughter?

[mutamusmaximus]

Now, did that happen, nope. There were animals. Now, do you have evidence that Muhammad went to Heaven. Or do you just believe him. The Quran is just based on the bible. Though, it contradicts the message. It was written 600 years afterwards. The books of the bible were written in order and with harmony. Then boom here comes the Quran 600 years later.

[gaarasgirlXD]

no no no see we believe in Jesus and Noah and Adam and Eve and all the prophets you believe in we just believe in one more becuase it was said that the last prophet would come 600 years after Jesus and the Angel Gabriel gave Mohammed the book to pass on to others but the pope made the bible and did whatever he thought was right but was wrong

[Nebulous1982]

Let me ask you: imagine if you were living in the times of Prophet Noah (peace be upon him) and there were no animals around , how would your sins be atoned for? Omg! All people in the times of Noah (pbuh) will be going to hell cause they had noone to die for them and God would not accept their works and their sins would not be atoned for! OMG! Not really. :-)

[mutamusmaximus]

Nice Blasphemy. Third commandment.

What are you talking about the past for? They had animals. God told Noah to have some clean animals. Though, if they didn't, yes, they would die in their sins.

[Nebulous1982]

And one more thing: how come it's as if you are not supposed to be compete with the goodness of God? God is God , He ain't some super human. If you can do good , then do it. If you depend on good works to be saved , man will do his utmost best to produce as many good deeds as he can , and this automatically makes our home on earth a better place. If you are already saved , then lack of obligation and your human impulses will overtake you. This is the problem of the Self. It needs Order.

[mutamusmaximus]

Now your down grading God. He's not a superhuman? He's not all powerful, omnipresent, omniscient ...Come on, God is Spirit. He's infinite. He is PERFECT.

Yes, we can try to make this world into a better place and we should. Though we are living in a graveyard. The world use to be perfect but, what happen? Man sinned and death came into the world. We definitely need order very true but we can't work for our salvation. We can be humble for what God did for us but we can't earn Heaven.

[Nebulous1982]

Seriously muta , I never imagined that you would believe such a thing! I have heard many things , but this just supercedes everything! Those people who had animals had better protect their sheep well from roving wolves cause their salvation depended on it! Good works? Nah , God would rather have blood for you to be saved!

May God guide us all closer to Truth!

:-0

[mutamusmaximus]

Wow, do understand the old covenant. That Moses talked of. Blood was an atonement for sins. It happened once a year. Abraham was going to kill his own son because he trusted God so much. Then, what happen, God provided a sacrifice. He obeyed God and humbled himself always.

[mutamusmaximus]

Also, the wages of sins is Death. Now as you know a wage is earned. We all earned Death. Now we need a substitute or we die spiritually and we are separated from God. God provided in the beginning our substitute and that was a clean lamb. Now everyone obeyed God obediently and listen to what He said or else they died. He did this until the Messiah came. Not Mohammad. Jesus was the Messiah, the Lamb of God. The Quran's way is based on works. You can't earn salvation. Stop and think bro.

[Lizi99]

Peace be upon you. It brings me joy to watch lectures of the true Islam and the Muslim people. I am a true Christian and worship our Father the Creator. There is so much wickedness and evil in the world today it is hard for one brethren to see another. While we are all children of the Creator, one struggles at times to find others who have the light of our Father the Living God within them.

[adamuk20]

mashallah nice video wich explain what islam is ...but one thing just want to know why many haters of islam and here lam talking about abuser ..who live sush stupid comment..allah forgive us ..ameen

[desigayboi]

Islam = Allah, blood,death,Dead People, Dead sheep and goats, War, Violence,stoning gay people,Exploding buildings, Bombs, terrorists, Mecca, Medina, Praying,Namaaz,kiling, Meat bones Butchers

[Nebulous1982]

desigayboi = ignorant

[mutamusmaximus]

Moses was a prophet, He gave instructions to Israel to shed the blood of a spotless lamb to provide for a temporary atonement of their sin.

Jesus was a prophet though He was the only prophet to say that He had the power on earth to forgive sins(Matthew 9:2-6)

[Lizi99]

Proverbs 30:3 also speaks of the Son of God. As a Christian I believe that Yeshua is that Son the Father sent. Immanuel (God with us), for our Father the Creator would not have his children do a thing he himself would not do to show us the way.

[mutamusmaximus]

Hello, I thought it was Proverbs 30:4. Lol, I'm not trying to be mean. Though, I'm curious, what do you think about Islam's religion.

[Lizi99]

Its not mean...hahahaha...you are right. It is verse 4 that I wanted to quote. I am not sure about your question however. Islam is a great people and I respect the right of the Islam people's religion. Religion is a doctrine, practice, and heritage of a people and as such we should be respectful of that.

[selabafghan]

mashallah mashallah

[denandy]

pure out of intrest

what does allah think of stealing?

and doesnt it say in the koran that you have to spread the islam with all you can do ?

even violence?

So does that mean a non believer is like a law-breaker for the islam?

well i just heard it from ppl since i cant read arabic .

sorry for my broken english

[AlMamluk]

In Islam, believers are to give "dawah" (or, to explain what Islam is) and God alone guides whom he wills).

Violence is only permitted against oppressors, and not as a pre-emptive technique..

So far as the non believer: there is no compulsion in religion (2:256) and a non-believer is just that, a non-believer (Surah al-Kafirun).

What is your language? I can find a translation of the Quran for you online, inshaAllah (God willing).

[denandy]

im dutch from belgium

its nice what you do online

it gives ppl another image of islam, hopefully

you got a gift ;)

[coolbenni]

hamdulillah
