That was a very good study, Bismarck. And did you notice that the Last or Farewell Surmon by the Prophet of Islam was also made from a Mount? Best Regards BMZ

Sura 3:3 (Yusuf Ali)
It is He Who sent down to thee (step by step), in truth, the Book [=Holy Qu'ran], confirming what went before it; and He sent down the Law (of Moses) and the Gospel (of Jesus) before this, as a guide to mankind, and He sent down the criterion (of judgment between right and wrong). 1) True Family Prophet Muhammad's "Farewell Sermon" All mankind is from Adam and Eve, an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over a black, nor a black has any superiority over a white - except by piety and good action. Learn that every Muslim is a brother to every Muslim and that the Muslims constitute one brotherhood. Matthew 12:46-50 and parallels show that the Messiah put his fellow True Believers closer to his heart than even his own blood relations. (!) And at least 168 times in the NT alone, Christians are called "brethren". Thus the notion that True Believers are to be treated even more dearly than thine own blood kin was espoused by both the Prophet Muhammad and the Messiah (praise God for them both). Although the "Farewell Sermon" is not, to my knowledge, part of the HQ, even still it shows that what the Prophet Muhammad taught and what the Messiah taught were identical in this crucial point that Christians call "True Family". 2) Intolerance against Iniquity Prophet Muhammad's "Farewell Sermon" You will neither inflict nor suffer any inequity. Isaiah 61:8 (NIV) For I, the LORD, love justice; I hate robbery and iniquity. In my faithfulness I will reward them and make an everlasting covenant with them. Psalm 125:5 (NASB) But as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways, The LORD will lead them away with the doers of iniquity. Peace be upon Israel. Jeremiah 31:30 (NASB) But everyone will die for his own iniquity; each man who eats the sour grapes, his teeth will be set on edge. The OT too clearly agrees here with the Prophet Muhammad's words, namely that Almighty God does hate iniquity. 3) 10 Biddings of God (10 Commandments) From Wikipedia: Despite the Ten Commandments not being explicitly mentioned in the Qur'an they are implied by the following verses in the Quran (using Jewish numbering):
Again we see correspondance in this crucial, central area of Belief. |
