Let me appreciate your honesty,and sharing your thoughts with us
for the past year or two since you have been questing your faith to Islam
and I have been questing religions since I was 15 years old..... in such age I started with comparative religions ...
no human being but experience moments of doubt .....
and doubt could be the precious moment that a person began giving up a negative believe and changing to another that more positive and helpful to improve one's character...
on the other hand doubt could be a beginning of evil journey through which a person would abandon the true religion, letting the right hand path and seek the left hand paths ,satisfying one's cheap desires and lust
in my case it was neither cases...doubt for me was a precious moments which motivated me to investigate my religion and other religions ....I didn't investigate Islam with the common style
as the common style for people is to seeks the rebuttals to the criticism of their religions and be convinced to it even it is nonsensical
I approached the matter with the spirit of someone who is honest with himself above all, objective in order not to lose the opportunity to get the truth behind his religion whether it is true or false.....
long journey with the Quran and the Bible , treated them both with objectivity and open mind,tried my best to get enough of their study tools, updated my thoughts time after time ,till I finally got totally convinced that the quran (the book upon which stands Islam) is the only book on earth to be fully divine .
I was on a catholic board recently and a lot of them think that Muhammad (saws) instead of meeting Gabriel(pbuh) meet the Satan.
whenever I see a group who belong to a religion accusing a founder of another religion of being inspired by Satan,without proofs for their allegation I can't help but to yawn !....
as Even some of those same catholics whenever they go to Sunday church ,would listen to the preaching which often would include some New Testament passage that sometimes makes the eyes of women full of tears .....among those passages :
when the Jews accused Jesus of being in contact with Satan
Luke: But some of them said, "He(Jesus) drives out demons by Beelzebul, the ruler of the demons."
17Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them: "Any kingdom divided against itself will be ruined, and a house divided against itself will fall. 18If Satan is divided against himself, how can his kingdom stand? I say this because you claim that I drive out demons by Beelzebub. 19
Now if I drive out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your followers drive them out?
The answer to the question whether Mohamed has been in contact with satan or not,would be exactly the same answer to whether Jesus had contact with Beelzebul, the ruler of the demons or not......
Clear?
Now let's take a sample of such satanic teachings that Satan taught Mohamed(peace be upon him) as some Christians claim:
If their guessing game is true then,
according to their logic:
Satan finally became righteous and taught Mohamed that intoxicants and gambling, and hinder you from the remembrance of God :
[005:091] Satan's plan is (but) to excite enmity and hatred between you, with intoxicants and gambling, and hinder you from the remembrance of God, and from prayer: will ye not then abstain?
Satan taught Mohamed that he makes the sinful acts seem alluring to his clients
[006:043] Satan made their (sinful) acts seem alluring to them.
Satan adviced not to follow his steps or to be victims to his seduction as he is avowed enemy ..
[006:142] and follow not the footsteps of Satan: for he is to you and avowed enemy.
[007:027] O ye Children of Adam! Let not Satan seduce you, in the same manner as He got your parents out of the Garden
[004:119] and whoever takes the Satan for a guardian rather than Allah he indeed shall suffer a manifest loss.
Satan finally became an enemy of idols and wine!!!
[005:090] O ye who believe ! wine and the game of chance and idols and divining arrows are only the abomination of Satan's handiwork. So shun each one of them that you may prosper.
[007:175] Narrate to them the story of the one to whom We awarded the knowledge of Our revelations. But he cast it aside! So, Satan pursued him until he became one of the misguided ones.
[007:201] Indeed, whenever an evil thought from Satan troubles them, the pious (always) remember (Allah). Then,
[017:064] But Satan promises them nothing but deceit.
[014:022] And Satan will say when the matter is decided: "It was God Who gave you a promise of Truth: I too promised, but I failed in my promise to you. I had no authority over you except to call you but ye listened to me: then reproach not me, but reproach your own souls. I cannot listen to your cries, nor can ye listen to mine. I reject your former act in associating me with God. For wrong-doers there must be a grievous penalty."
It seems ,according to such Christians,that the time Satan inspired Mohamed (God forbids)get bored of his work of leading humans astray ,and preferred to be a social reformer !!
as a matter of fact if there is no time of the story of humanity Satan would need to inspire false prophets ,it would be the time immediately before the coming of islam...
as before Islam nothing evil lacked our planet that would urge Satan to do his work.......
There has never been true monotheism, general violating of God's commandments all over the globe.....
Pagans praying to their idols,christians been busy with their trethiesm which they covered with the trinity mask ,jews taking their rabbis as gods and both are proud of themselves as God's sons and chosen people !!!!.....
It was logical in such immoral atmosphere ,God would send another messenger ......
Athiest ask me for proof for God and also ask me why I believe in "Medieval Stuff" even though it's really old and there is no proof of it
why would some intellectual persons believe in "Medieval Stuff" ?

People on the Catholic board also asked me how we can prove the bible has been changed?
The proper question ,Is the bible as a whole inspired by God?
I invite them to join here and defend the Bible

Also non muslims ask me why Extreme Islam is suddenly starting to take over muslim/non muslim countries
Extreme Islam? what is their definition of it?
Why Islamic countries have the most murders per capita even though our religion condemns it.
