Islam and Hindusim - relationship?

[thirdwatch512]

hello all,

ok so according to one of the hadiths, God has sent down 124,000 prophets or something like that.

well i was wondering.. could krishna, or any other hindu people be prophets?

hindu's do believe in one God btw, just they come down in different forms.

so do you guys as muslims think that krishna, or any "prophets" or such from the darma religion could be true prophets, or what do you think? i know this has been debated by muslims before..

[AvarAllahNoor]

I'm no muslim, but even as a Sikh I ind it difficult God taking the form of a babys body and an elephants head or a boar, or a fish or awoman with six arms and sits on a lion/tiger! - Too many creative fictional stories if you ask me!

[thirdwatch512]

hah true, but i have heard like dr. zakir say that hinduism is a revlation from God, but it's been changed a lot or something. yet when i called Why Islam they said no way lol.

Well, if Christian can take Jesus, who was Messenger of God, and someone how come up with the concept of the trinity and made him divine... then anything is possible, I guess?

And even the generations that came after the Messenger Noah. He taught pure monotheism and then the devil tricked the people into building statues and eventually tricked them into worshipping them.

I mean Hinduism is REALLY old, only God knows, it might have been real once upon a time, but then somehow became corrupted to the max. Or it might have never been based on a real religion of God.

God knows best though.

[north_malaysian]

when i took Sciences of Koran subject, my lecturer said that Krishna, Buddha, Confucious might be prophets sent by God.... might be....

[thirdwatch512]

well if you search like "hindusim islam" or somethign like that on youtube, you should find a few videos from dr. zakir talking to hindu's about islam's relationship.

now i must say.. dr. zakir lied a TON. a WHOLE LOT. i have studied hinduism and i would say the vast majority of quotes he quoted don't even exist. however, he does bring up some points.

like that hindu is actually monotheistic and such.

[thirdwatch512]

btw i added a poll.. all, please vote. :)

[Skillganon]

I voted No.

Because Hinduism(Polytheism) is a false religion.
Bhuddism is a false religion.

If ancestors if you go back to the right times & place have been monotheistic, but it was not Hinduism.

Another example will be christians. If you go back far enough to the right time and place their ancestors will have been monotheistic i.e. To woship Allah(swt) alone and not to set up partners with him.

[thirdwatch512]

well, let's review lol..

1. the rig vedas (first veda's) were monotheistic and all. however, alter on other people claime dto be prophets or wrote that sort of changed it.

2. Hindu scriptures are EXTREMELY rich in science, more then the qu'ran.

3. Qu'ran says there have been 120,000 prophets, sent for different nations.

so do you think krishna or hinduism has a ltitle truth, or nada?

We do n't believe in the Veda, or the puranas, e.t.c

We do not believe or accept that Krishna was a prophet in any way.

[thirdwatch512]

i see. interesting. :)

although i have heard before that some muslims do, it's just not mentioned in the qu'raan or something.

[north_malaysian]

Can you add another option "Maybe...or maybe not"

[Skillganon]

i see. interesting. :)

although i have heard before that some muslims do, it's just not mentioned in the qu'raan or something.

You have to understand we do not step outside the bound of Islam.

We only say those mentioned in Islam as prophets.

We do not speculate was he a prophet or is their chance he was. We do not even accept the probability. It's speculation.

I hope you understand.

Now wheter some of the statement mentioned in the BG we agree with or not is another matter.

For example. If it is mentioned in a book, newspaper, God is only 1. Than we say we agree. IF it say's God has three arms, a cow head amd a chakra in one hand.. We say we don't agree.

[thirdwatch512]

Can you add another option "Maybe...or maybe not"

i don't know how. :( so if that was your view, i would vote the last one.. chances unlikely, but still could be. :)

[AvarAllahNoor]

How odd. One of the Mods (Al Madni or something) posted a paragraph from the Rig Veda about the 'Kalki Avtar' who is allegedly Muhammed. Some contradictions with what you say brother.

[TABS19]

What about Shirdi Sai Baba?

He tried to unite Muslims and Hindu according to Haji Abdul Baba.

[thirdwatch512]

kalki avatar can't be mohammad, as he is to come in i think 3,000 years ago. it wasn't predicting mohammad. just saying....

[Umar001]

hah true, but i have heard like dr. zakir say that hinduism is a revlation from God, but it's been changed a lot or something. yet when i called Why Islam they said no way lol.

I think you might mean that he said 'it might have been, or it is possible' since thisis what I have heard him say, if you have a talk saying that he said 'it is' then please post :)

now i must say.. dr. zakir lied a TON. a WHOLE LOT. i have studied hinduism and i would say the vast majority of quotes he quoted don't even exist. however, he does bring up some points.

Please share

[cali dude]

One of the options is that Hinduism is false religion. Would you have the same option about Islam? I don't understand why you think you have right call other religions false and yet you won't allow others to do the same?

[AvarAllahNoor]

Even though these other religions are 'false' they sure like to use them in the argument to back up Islam - Can't have it both ways.

[thirdwatch512]

Please share

well like for example he was quoting from the rig vedas and said that it said something about mohammad.. but the verse said nothing like that. he really made a bunch of lies to try and make a point.

[Malaikah]

One of the options is that Hinduism is false religion. Would you have the same option about Islam? I don't understand why you think you have right call other religions false and yet you won't allow others to do the same?

The very fact there exist billions of people on this planet who reject is Islam is evidence enough that people have the right to reject Islam. The fact that members here are allowed to display their religion here as something other than Islam is evidence that members here are allowed to express their belief that Islam is false.

As MUSLIMS, we do not believe that Islam is false, because if we did, we wouldn't be Muslims!

[Malaikah]

Even though these other religions are 'false' they sure like to use them in the argument to back up Islam - Can't have it both ways.

Actually we can.

Example: Christianity was based on a real religion of God, having the exact same beliefs as Islam (oneness of God, heaven and hell, existence of prophets etc). Islamic belief is that humans corrupted the religion and introduced false elements to it, most specifically, the trinity and false divinity of Jesus. However, some aspects of the religion remained in tact, and there is no reason we can't draw on these elements to show that Islam is the truth.

christianity has always been different then islam. over 2400 manuscripts porve that, and documents from the opriginal church fathers show that. :)

[Malaikah]

Apparently every single on of those documents is different to the other...

Anyway, having multiple copies of the original does not prove that the bible is authoritative, it just proves that a lot of people copied it out.

Islam has a very strict verification processed to ensure that everything related was truely said by the prophet. From what I know, the bible itself would be classified as 'weak' or parts of it possibly even 'fabricated' if put to the same test as used by Islamic scholars.

you're right, but it clearly shows what christians believe and have believed.

[Darkseid]

True Hinduism is actual very monotheistic, but discriminative people like to associate it as a polytheistic faith, because they cannot understand it with all the different sects that there are.

But you have to remember Hinduism has been around for like five thousand years and during that time there have been many alterations and divisions. The Hinduism we see today might be far different than the one that existed during the Aryan invasion over India.

So of course there are going to be huge divisions within the religion.

But anyways Hinduism comes from a mixture Jainism, tribalism, and a faith brought over distictively by the Aryan invaders (probably Abraham's version of Judiasm).

Ancient Jainism is super old in religious terms. Jainism could be considered as humanity's first religion. But the common use is very different from the ancient variety. Present day Jainism is very similar to Buddhism, but the ancient variety was probably crafted by Krishna as he existed well before Hinduism and the Aryan invasion that led to the establishment of Hinduism.

Nevertheless, Hinduism is a monotheistic religion that takes into god in a diverse fashion as that of Abrahamic faiths (with the exception of certain sects of Christianity).

You see in Islam, Orthodox Christianity, and in Judaism, God is shapeless and does not have a shape at all.

But in Hinduism, god is shapeful and has an infinite number of shapes. And if it wasn't for this citation of god, we would never have come up with the number (zero), which stands for nothing.

So technically Hinduism is no different than most other faiths. It just has god with a hundred diverse forms that each have there own idol.

But then I guess people don't understand why they make idols in the first place.

Hindus and Buddhists (which also have their own idols) make idols in the same sense that Jews and Muslims discourage idols.

It is like that Mexican General that fought for Spain and Mexico during Mexico's war of independence.

So technically god didn't discouraged Hinduism and Buddhism, because they don't abuse their idol worship in the same regards as that of Pre-Islam Arabs.

Maybe god punished the Pre-Islam Arabs, because they abused their idolism and as of such. God forbid them to ever have any idols.

Does anyone remember reading from the Torah, Bible, or Koran about Moses and the ten commandments? When Moses can back down from the sacred mount, he discovered his people bathing themselves in foolish idol worship. (not in the same regards as that of Hindus and Buddhists). As someone who knows god extremely well, I do know for a fact that the hebrews were punished because they abused their idolship to the point of going against god.

However, Hindus worship their creator with idols rather than going against him. So they weren't punished and allowed by god to continue their idolship. Because it is just the idolship of god under an infinity of different forms. Technically that is no different than having god worshiped with any idols at all. If you can recall infinity = zero as both being non-real numbers. Otherwise, because I know god would very well have sent a prophet over to clean up that mess. But it probably isn't really a mess at all, just to those that share eyes of envy and disconsent. Like why should Abu-whatever be allowed to worship an infinite number of idols of god, when Jin-whatever cannot, because he's a muslim or a jew.

This isn't in any means of encouraging people to take up any faith. This is just providing you with the insight of why the Hindus are never punished by god for their idolship.

But they were punished nevertheless for their power hold over their own people which is shown to be quite similar to that of Pre-Islam Arabs. You see, Pre-Islam Arabs used idols to control their people and benefit off of them. Much in the same way the caste-system was used by the Hindus over their own people.

Furthermore, Catholics were never punished for their idolship of god either until after the crusades because they started to abuse that religion and turned away from god, which is how Martin Luther became a prophet.

God had punished them for that wicked deed by sending in Buddha to bring them away from that. Buddhists share the same religious context of idolship, which is why they are never punished either. Future prophets would only come about to bring back the order that was lost as past prophets went their way in afterlife.

That's how the Bahai'i faith, mormonism, protestantism, evangelicanism, Tenrikyo, Cao Dai, Sikhism, and Unitarian Universalism was established.

Old faiths are being renewed by new prophets. And this will continue forever and ever and ever as long as god and humanity co-exist, which is forever hopefully.

if thats the case. does islam accept that krishna was a prophet or not?

[- Qatada -]

The answer to that is 'maybe' ^ as Zakir Naik said in a lecture i saw today. Because there's no proof in our scripture proving that he was a prophet, yet at the same time - Allaah knows best if he came with a scripture from Allaah.

Anyway, even if he was a prophet - he would only come to his people at his time, and therefore the people today have to accept the final revelation which was revealed to God's final Messenger, Muhammad (peace be upon him) which is pure monotheism, without any alterations. There is no other alternative.

[One Man Army]

he would only come to his people at his time,

does this mean allahs message changed from krishna to muhammad?

[- Qatada -]

does this mean allahs message changed from krishna to muhammad?

It means that if krishna came to his people with the message of worshipping none but Allaah, then that's what happened.

However, once Allaah sent a messenger to his people, the messenger after has to be accepted by default and the people have no choice in that. Even the christians believe that the jews have to accept Jesus (peace be upon him) to gain salvation in the hereafter, even though these prophets [according to their own scriptures] mention that they came to their nation only.

Jesus (peace be upon him) is being commanded to “Go to the lost sheep of the House of Israel!” Matthew 10:6]

Whereas Muhammad (peace be upon him) is being told:

"Say: 'O mankind! I am sent unto you all, as the Messenger of Allah, to Whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth." (Qur'an 7:158)


The final Messenger of Allaah was Muhammad (peace be upon him) who came to all of mankind. If someone rejects him after the clear signs have come to them, then they are liable to the punishment of Allaah. As he confirmed the same message as the prophets of before, and Allaah lightened some things which were more strict within the previous laws.

thats all i read over and over in the Quran, its a fear and reward system. punishment etc.. this is why i have made another thread for love in the Quran. i cant find much!

[- Qatada -]

lol that's what you think. Infact its love, hope and fear.

A person hope's for the pleasure of their Creator, and He will love them in return. They hope for His paradise, and He is prepared to give it to those who submit to Him.

If someone never had fear, i wonder if they would really be prepared to obey God in all matters? Or how about a love relationship where the couple love each other, yet at the same time - they choose not to go against their lover out of fear for losing them? :)

[Natural]

It depends on your definition of prophet. Just because someone has something philosophical to say or disseminate among a group of people, does not mean they are a prophetic.

[Trumble]

It has to be a 'no', but not because Hinduism is a 'false' religion (which, as usual, means here "any religion but the one I happen to believe in") any more than Islam is. Krishna was no more a muslim prophet than the Buddha or Lao Tzu, who at least have the benefit of being confirmed historical personages.

What the prophets of the monotheist tradition and the great Eastern religious figures share is a glimpse (to varying degrees) of the one, true, spiritual reality that is common to all of us if we seek it hard enough. All that differs is the interpretation of that reality, which is very different, particularly between the two 'blocks'.

[snakelegs]

well i was wondering.. could krishna, or any other hindu people be prophets?

how could anyone possibly know the answer to this question?

[Yanal]

There is only one god allah and all the prophets were muslim becuz if the prophets were non muslim how would they tell people about islam becuz only islam is the true religon
