ألف باء .. صناعة ارهابي مسلم

Quote: an analytical mindset. The Quran contains the universal values that Chritianity advocated, and the provisions of Judaism that suited earlier times, where the sowrd was mightier than the word. Chritianity emphasized the word, but shortly after the death of Jesus it resorted to the sword to expand its influence. The Crusaders were amongst the worst terrorists that the history of mankind has seen. Yet Christianity would have had no way of expanding without this violent form of expansionism. We should always remmebre that Crtitians ofhat time, including Jesus himself were jewish converts. We should also remember that Jesus validated Judaism by saying that he only came to complete, not contradict, the Old Testament. The Quran contained the meanings and precepts of the Old Testament in its Medanese texts and the New Testament in its Meccan texts. The Meccan texts represent the universal values that Charitianity advocated, and the Medinese represt what the Old Testament advocated, including expanding the word of God by the sowrd. The later was necessitated by the needs and means of the time, after the former was advocated for thirteen years -three years more than the time of advocation of the Medinaese. This in itself is an indicator of the imortance of the Meccan texts. I want to say that the answers Jamal is searching for are embbeded in the Quran. I advise him, as you did, to seek this anwer out by reading the books of Ustaz Mahmoud Mohammed Taha more thoroughly. Being a Muslim, in its essence, is being Chritian, Jewish, and aprrciating allthe universal values that the prophets of East and West have advocated in human history. This is why Abraham is called the "father of prophets and a "Muslim" in Islam. ***************** Please execuse the brevity, and the spelling mistakes - if there are any. I wrote this in a hurry, as I am very busy, preparing for the fall semester. (عدل بواسطة Haydar Badawi Sadig on 05-09-2005, 11:14 ص) (عدل بواسطة
