Re: Do Muslims and Christians worship the same God? (Re: Muhib)

What do you think folks? On a comment was made by the president Bush about month ago in the UK, the head of the state thought that Muslims side by side with Christians and Jews do worship the same God. Bush made his remark to insist that all religions represent the values of love, peace, and equality. This is my own understanding to Bush statement, and I further think that Bush tried to conform That religions should be treated equally no matter how many differences we might notice between them. Bush comments were made in the UK, but huge reactions were exposed in the US of some concerned people.
Here is a man named Ted said some negative things about the God of Islam!~!!! I think this man is good example to someone that extremist. I also acknowledge this man knows less about Islam and what Islam is all about.

When George Bush last month declared that Christians, Jews, and Muslims worship the same God, some of his evangelical supporters had a holy cow. They have been arguing for some time that Islam is a fundamentally dangerous and false religion, and then the most important evangelical in America, George Bush, goes and pays Muslims the ultimate compliment.
Ted Haggard, president of the National Association of Evangelicals, explained his disagreement with Bush: The Christian God encourages freedom, love, forgiveness, prosperity and health. The Muslim god appears to value the opposite. The personalities of each god are evident in the cultures, civilizations and dispositions of the peoples that serve them. Muhammad's central message was submission; Jesus' central message was love. They seem to be very different personalities

Muhib Salaam !0
The core belief and aims of the the revelation are the same in Islam and Christianity. However, there are some distinct differences pertaining to the represetation of the oneness of the Supreme Being. Muslim believe that God " Allah " is one in the most basic and simple meaning of the word. He has no children, no parents,nor any equal. In Islam God is known by the name " Allah " and some other 99 attributes., such as the the Merciful, the All Knowing, the All Powerful etc. In Christianity God is three Gods merged into one God ; hence the term terinity , which consists of God the Son, represented in the flesh form of Jesus Christ, God the father,refering to the purest form of God in Christianity, and The Holly Spirit, represnted in the Archangel Gabriel. Each and every God in this trinity is a fully God , while in the meantime He combined with the other Two Gods to form one God. Finally, Mary, the mother of Jesus is also considered as fully God. As Muslims, we believe in all the books of the previous prophets, mentioned in the Quran. In contrast, Christians believe the Quran is a fabrication and that prophet Muhammed, peace be on him, is a false prophet.0
