Differences between Christianity, Judaism and Islam

[Lamaggad]

Christianity
:: Believe in THREE Gods "God, Jesus & Maryam" and one Book "Bible"
:: Believe that Jesus was crucified for thier sins.
:: They do not believe in Prophet Muhammad although he is mentioned in their Bible but unfortunately they keep denying it.
:: They do not believe in the Qura'an or even the Torah.

Judaism
:: Believe in one God and believe in one Holy Book "Torah"
:: BUT they believe that they are the sons of god and they are the chosen people for God.
:: They do not believe in Jesus, in fact Christians believe that Jews have killed him.
:: They do not believe in prophet Muhammad or Qura'an or the Bible.

Islam
:: Believe in one and ONLY God and all THREE Holy Books "Torah, Bible and Qura'an"
:: Believe in all Prophets that they are messengers from God - including "Jesus, Ibrahim, and Prophet Muhammad"
:: BUT Muslims also believe:-
- That the Bible & Torah were trades. No one can prove other wise i guess even if they keep denying.
- That Jesus was not crucified or killed
- That every one should be responsible for thier sins.

[Lamaggad]

When Muslims invites non-Muslims to Islam that's bcz we want to guide them to the Truth as we believe that they have lost their way in their believes.

[Ayesha Rana]

Yup and even in the prophets time there is an incident when one jewish man heard the prophet (saw) had come and he investigated. His brother asked him what he had found out and he said that Muhammad(saw) was the true Messenger. Then the Brother asked him what he would do and he said that he would keep on opposing him as much as he could. The first mans daughter had overheard their conversation and she accepted Islam.

1 question: here, on this boards there are many posts in which You (Muslims) speak about lies told about Islam. And You are angry about that. If You know how that fells, than why are You doing the same thing?????? That's some kind of revenge?

Christianity[/COLOR][/B]
:: Believe in THREE Gods "God, Jesus & Maryam" and one Book "Bible"

where did You get this from??? Should be:
"Believe in One God in three Person: Father, Son and Holy Spirt. Mary have nothing to do with this. and one book"

:: Believe that Jesus was crucified for thier sins.

- strange, but it is correct

:: They do not believe in Prophet Muhammad although he is mentioned in their Bible but unfortunately they keep denying it.

- no comments. You know what Christians think about this...

:: They do not believe in the Qura'an or even the Torah.

should be "They do not believe in the Qura'an, but they believe in Torah"

Judaism
:: Believe in one God and believe in one Holy Book "Torah"

should be: "Believe in one God and believe in one Holy Book "Bible" (or Jewish Bible, or "Old Testament" or "Tanakh" (= Torah + Neviim (Prophets)+Ketuvim (Writings)). Samaritans accept only Torah"

:: BUT they believe that they are the sons of god and they are the chosen people for God.

I think it should be "sons of G*d"...

:: They do not believe in Jesus, in fact Christians believe that Jews have killed him.

Should be: They do not believe in Jesus, in fact Christians believe that some Jews 2000 years ago wanted Him death"

:: They do not believe in prophet Muhammad or Qura'an or the Bible.

- should be "They do not believe in prophet Muhammad or Qura'an but they believe in Bible ("Jewish Bible", or "Old Testament" or "Tanakh")

[Quruxbadaan]

so than if they believe in torah what does that make them

im sure not all cristians believe in the torah otherwise they would not call themselves cristian

[duskiness]

Torah = are 5 first books of what Christian call "Old Testament" (christian Bible is divided into Old & New Testament). Those are:
* I Genesis (Bereisheet בראשית) -Creation of word, Adam&Eve, Abraham, Noah
* II Exodus (Shemot שמות), - about Moses
* III Leviticus (Vayikra ויקרא), - mainly Law
* IV Numbers (Bemidbar במדבר), - mainly Law
* V Deuteronomy (Devarim דברים) - Law & death of Moses
To make it look more simple:
Jewish Bible = Torah + Neviim + Ketuvim
Christian Bible = Jewish Bible (we name it "old Testament") + New Testament (about Jesus)
And I can't think of any known to me denomination that don't accept Torah...really any.

Maybe this should be moved to comparative religion board???

Hi duskiness

I would love to do comparative religious studies. Is that what you study?

So is the Torah identical to the first five books in the Old Testament?
And the following part of the Old Testament, such as the psalms and the prophets have no at all influence on Judaism?
What are Neviim and Ketuvim?

Questions, questions ...

Blessings.

[Idris]

"Believe in One God in three Person: Father, Son and Holy Spirt. Mary have nothing to do with this. and one book"

Well say I have three twins and one kill someone are you going to put all of them on trial for murder…No why?

Because they are different persons. This is the same with the One in three God, they are different, you have three dissimilar images in your head then you think of the father,son and Holy Spirt. I don't need to tell you the Images do I?

torah is the first 5 books, sometimes called pentateuch. neviim = prophets, ketuvim = writings. and yes, the prophets and writings do have influence on judaism.

[north_malaysian]

Does Jew accept the Old Testament in Christian Bible as Torah?

[Joe98]

.....the father, son and Holy Spirt.....

The Christains have a belief and you cannot change their belief.

The belief is based on faith, not logic.

Islam too is built on faith, not logic

[Phil12123]

The Christains have a belief and you cannot change their belief.

The belief is based on faith, not logic.

Islam too is built on faith, not logic

Atheists have tremendous FAITH to believe there is no God. May I recommend the book, "I Don't Have Enough Faith To Be An Atheist," by Norman L. Geisler and Frank Turek?

Peace.

the torah is the first 5 books of what the christians call the old testament. jews do not believe in the new testament.

[Lamaggad]

First of all, i would like to great you in our Islamic way "duskiness".
Al-Salamu Alaykum wa Rahmatu Allahu wa Barakatuh -- meaning -- Peace be upon you and God's Mercy and his Blessings my brother in Humanity.

1 question: here, on this boards there are many posts in which You (Muslims) speak about lies told about Islam. And You are angry about that. If You know how that fells, than why are You doing the same thing?????? That's some kind of revenge?

what lies i have said..?!? You are completely wrong... it's not a revange and i did not say that to make you angry.... in fact, i have opened this thread to show you and show people like you the Truth...

No one said that you should keep your comments to your self if you think that I'm throwing lies on your religion... and ofcourse if someone is telling lies about my religion, i should stand up by all means and correct his information and defend my religion.
as every one is asked to protect his/her religion weather it's Christianity or Judaism or even Islam... I guess that's every one's right

I am replying to each comment you have mentioned, and please do not be offended by them bcz as i have said, i would like to prove to you and guide you to the truth and nothing but the truth.. and you are more than welcome to prove other wise if you think Islam is wrong

[north_malaysian]

the torah is the first 5 books of what the christians call the old testament. jews do not believe in the new testament.

But from what I've heard the Jews put holiness on their Torah as Muslims to the Koran. Old Testament is written in languages and being put together with new testament, thus it doesnt constitute a Torah. For Muslims, any Koran written in other languages are considered translations and not as holy as Koran in ...well Koranical Arabic.

[Lamaggad]

Qura'an[29-46]
And argue not with the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), unless it be in (a way) that is better (with good words and in good manner, inviting them to Islâmic Monotheism with His Verses), except with such of them as do wrong; and say (to them): "We believe in that which has been revealed to us and revealed to you; our Ilâh (God) and your Ilâh (God) is One (i.e. Allâh), and to Him we have submitted (as Muslims)."

وَلَا تُجَادِلُوا أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ إِلَّا بِالَّتِي هِيَ أَحْسَنُ إِلَّا الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا مِنْهُمْ وَقُولُوا آمَنَّا بِالَّذِي أُنْزِلَ إِلَيْنَا وَأُنْزِلَ إِلَيْكُمْ وَإِلَهُنَا وَإِلَهُكُمْ وَاحِدٌ وَنَحْنُ لَهُ مُسْلِمُون

where did You get this from??? Should be:
"Believe in One God in three Person: Father, Son and Holy Spirt. Mary have nothing to do with this. and one book"

I have seen several Bibles here in Canada that are DIFFRENT from each other, and i have seen more than 10 programs over the Canadian TV about Christianity.
some of them say Three Gods in ONE.. some say THREE Gods, some believe that Mary is a God as well and now you are saying one God in three PERSONS.. since when a person can be a God?!?! and please explain to me Who is the father? and who is the Son and who is the Holy spirit? since i'm Totally LOST in what you believe in !?!?!!

let me mention another example here.. when i was in high school school, their where tow students in my class who are Christians "i think orthodox", one of them doesn't eat Pork or any kind of ham and the other one eats Pork and all kind of ham. What about you?!

those tow example proved to me the contradiction that Christians have in their religion without even me discussing it with any body and now while I'm in Canada just looking at the TV, i see several programs about Christianity, and till now, i never saw tow persons saying the same thing... and now you have proved it to me again by saying something completely different than the 10 programs i have seen...

if i should believe you then i have to disagree with my christian friend, and if i believed what i have seen on the TV then i have to disagree with you and with my Christian(s) friends...
tell me..? which one should i follow?!?! and why should i believe you not them?!?!? and why should i believe in something that basically doesn't make any sense?!?!

I was born Muslim, but if i was born Muslim that doesn't mean that i am right till i fully understand what is Islam and till i fully recognize it in my brain. in Islam we are ASKED to fulfill our believes and search so we can be truly satisfied with Islam in our Hearts, we are not asked to be Muslims bcz basically we were born Muslims.

are you asked the same thing in your religion?!?! any wayI hope that you will do the same thing, and truly open your heart to the Truth... compare all three religions and be honest to your self when you are searching for the truth.

- strange, but it is correct

I will ask you one question here... If Jesus died for Christians sins.. then why Christians are punished if they steal or kill?!?! then basically they can have as much sins they want since at the end Jesus will cover it for them... and it's happening alot these days. specially here in Canada

- no comments. You know what Christians think about this...

Again, Prophet Muhammad was mentioned in the Bible... the reason I'm typing WAS here bcz basically the Bible is trades from their meanings, translation.. the whole book is changed to different versions that even have the Authors name on it.
by the way some of the Bibles till this moment still have the part where it's mentioning Prophet Muhammad in it. "don't forget to search about that part "

should be "They do not believe in the Qura'an, but they believe in Torah"

OK BUT some doesn't.. so here is another example where you are proving that Christianity is full of contradictions.. not to mention here that Jews or let me say SOME actually MOST Jews doesn't believe in Bible.. and they deny most of the things that you believe in.

another question for you here.. does that make you a Jew bcz you believe in Torah or does that make Jews Christians?!?! as i have seen in your profile, you are Christian not a Jew..

[QUOTE=duskiness;358976]Should be: They do not believe in Jesus, in fact Christians believe that some Jews 2000 years ago wanted Him death"[QUOTE]

what difference does it make to you when you put SOME here, will that take you back in time and change any thing..? NO..
conclusion: Jews were completely DENYING Jesus (Peace be upon him) at that time and also till this day SOME are still denying him...
I have read about that and i have also seen Passion of the Christ... and i have spoke to Jews over here in Canada, they do not have the same vision that you have..

Awaiting your sonest response

P.S for Admins: I apologies for posting my thread in the wrong place.. Thank you for correcting this mistake
Jazakum Allahu khayran

[duskiness]

Jew believe not only in Torah. Torah 1/3 of their Bible. 2 part is called "Prohets", that are:
8 major prophets:
* I. Joshua or Yehoshua [יהושע]
* II. Judges or Shoftim [שופטים]
* III. Samuel or Shmu'el [שמואל]
* IV. Kings or Melakhim [מלכים]
* V. Isaiah or Yeshayahu [ישעיהו]
* VI. Jeremiah or Yirmiyahu [ירמיהו]
* VII. Ezekiel or Yehezq'el [יחזקאל]
* VIII. Trei Asar (The Twelve Minor Prophets) תרי עשר
1. Hosea or Hoshea [הושע]
2. Joel or Yo'el [יואל]
3. Amos [עמוס]
4. Obadiah or Ovadyah [עבדיה]
5. Jonah or Yonah [יונה]
6. Micah or Mikhah [מיכה]
7. Nahum or Nachum [נחום]
8. Habakkuk or Habaquq [חבקוק]
9. Zephaniah or Tsefania [צפניה]
10. Haggai [חגי]
11. Zechariah or Zekharia [זכריה]
12. Malachi or Malakhi [מלאכי]
(and - how I said - they are also in Christian Bible ,although in different order)

3 part of Jewish Bible - "Writings":
I. Tehillim (Psalms) תהלים
II. Mishlei (Book of Proverbs) משלי
III. 'Iyyov (Book of Job) איוב
IV. Shir ha-Shirim (Song of Songs) שיר השירים
V. Ruth (Book of Ruth) רות
VI. Eikhah (Lamentations) איכה [Also called Kinnot (קינות) in Hebrew.]
VII. Kohelet (Ecclesiastes) קהלת
VIII. Esther (Book of Esther) אסתר
IX. Daniel (Book of Daniel) דניאל
X. Ezra (often divided into two books, Book of Ezra and Book of Nehemiah (עזרא (נחמיה
XI. Divrei ha-Yamim (Chronicles, often divided into two books)

all in Christian Bible -different order. Now - for protestants that's where Old Testament ends.
Catholic, Ortodox add - so called - "deuteroncanonical books": Tobit, Judith, 1 Maccabees, 2 Maccabees, Wisdom of Solomon, Sirach (Ecclesiasticus), and Baruch.
So Tanak (or Tanah) is Jewish Bible or Christian Old Testament. That's (almost -deuteroncanonical books) the same.

If think it would be nice if any Jew could answer. But i know they translate thier Bible from Antic (Septuaginta III/II BC).
