U are approaching this wrongly I think.

Ladunal Should know that Mohammed could not perform miracLes not because he was a sinner, remember that no man is without sin , even Moses killed a man, David killed men etc (and they are considered prophets),

mohammed could not perform any miracles because he was a pagan moon god worshipping paedophile FRAUD.

Note that the Pope has never called Jesus drunk, we need to be careful the allegations we make, he has never prayed islamically but he has visited mosques and prayed as part of his peace whatever. I strongly disagree with being too friendly with muslims in a religious sense (since we do not worship the same GoD) but what do I know.

As a born catholic I will tell you that the catholic churchs position on Islam is that they are a pagan cult with some warped judeo-christain teachings and should be brought to the Christian faith through love and compassion.

What do you understand by the concept of''Our lady of Fatma?''

I tell you the truth, I saw the picture of the present pope raise up his hands like the muslims and prayed islamically.

If my church does anything wrong I will point it out to them and not because am not a catholic. The Bible says we should look unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith and not the church. Many church leaders have compromised the faith of the Bible.

A deliberate sinner cannot perform miracles:

John 9:31
We know that God does not listen
to sinners, but if anyone is a
worshiper of God and does his
will, God listens to him.

That was a statement emanating from the miracle of opening the eyes of a blind man in John chapter 9. The man healed told the Jews that they knew that a sinner does not and cannot do miracle.

Before we continue the discussion I want to let u know that I regularly criticize some catholic doctrine. I have my bible as my go to authority and I try to get the churches standpoint on key social issues, theology etc

I do know the church has a very high regard for Mary which protestants object to. Early Christians also had a very high regard for Mary. Many Christians don't know this, even some scriptures (not included in the bible) says she was born without original sin.

I don't know much about Our lady of Fatma. What does it have to do with the conversation.

When u say pray islamically, what exactly do u mean.

Islamic pray involves several up and down movements including grasping the ears and thighs and reciting pagan verses.

I haven't seen the pope do that.

By the way how is Christian pray, is it by putting ur hands together, or raised up apart or dancing in joy, or quite in meditation.. Because catholics do all that depending on circumstance.
which one did u see the pope do ?

truthman2012:


I have put many questions to you that you looked away from, what audacity do you have to accuse me of dodging?

I wonder why your question in the first place. Everybody knows what sin is: it is breaking God's law. Muhammad knew what law he was breaking for which he was asking for forgiveness. Allah too was aware of what law he was breaking for telling him to ask for forgiveness.

The surprising thing is that allahh never warned him to stop sinning like the character of the true God, he would only tell him to ask for for forgiveness. So, does it mean he put his laws in place to be broken and to be forgiven?

Thank God you spill the beans now. If sin is breaking the God's law as you said which I totally agreed with, then tell me a single verse or hadith that mentioned any God's law ever flouted by the holy prophet (saw). He's per excellence an INFALLIBLE prophet that can't even fall to error even when he's sleeping.

Now, coming to your oft quoted verses of asking for forgiveness by the holy prophet (saw), is purely for un imaginable spiritual perfection. I don't know if you have read it in the book of hadith where he inkling mentioned his supposedly sin that he seek forgiveness from Allah when is thought is been interupted or cycled by satan.

He considered that a sin in his humble spirit repent for that. This is similar if you don't know, what that means, what happen to Jesus Christ (as) after 40 days of fasting when satan try tempt him, a few minute cut of divine remembrance. The holy prophet is in perpetual commune with God who considered an interupt of thinhs like this a sin.

Even at that, Allah has promised him such seemly 'sin' that has happened or that will happen in future, HE has forgiving him yet he cease not to be humbled before His lord.

ALLAH says in the holy Quran that he (saw) has best of highest moral standard. So go do your research properly. We were told in the holy Quran that even believers after entering paradise, we still be begging for forgiveness and perfection of their light, but like you of little spiritual knowledge you will interpret from mundane angle whereas is for unceasing spiritual perfection.


Peace.

I would advise you google ''our lady of fatima'', you will discover many fables especially on wikipaedia.

I have not seen the pope do more than raising up his hand in a mosque praying like the muslim as shown in a picture.

Christians' prayer has no particular form, it is as led by the Spirit. You can be moved to bow down, knee down, stand up, sit down etc. A man was praying and suddenly was moved by the Holy Spirit to lie down, and in a moment his spiritual eyes were opened and saw the arrow of the enemy fly over him.

In this dispensation of the Holy Spirit, God cannot be tamed to a particular style of routine prayers. The Bible says now is the time that those who worship God should do so in the Spirit and truth:

John 4:24
God is a Spirit: and they that
worship him must worship
him in spirit and in truth.

What does it mean to worship God in the Spirit? Listen to what the Spirit dictates to worship God in each occasion. There are times the Holy Spirit will intervene to change your prayer point because you may be praying amiss.

If he didn't break any law, what sin was he asking for forgiveness? Do you go to God and say sorry for an offence you haven't committed?

Only a brainwashed muslim will believe a man(mohammed) who raped war captives, killed Jews and non muslims, had sex with A minor of 9 yearS , sold slaves and captured slaves and who claimed in the quran that he can't perform miracles; is a prophet.

I guess that standards for prophethood in Islam is pretty LOW.

See yourself, by the way how old are you? forgive me if that sounds disgusting. How can you be making baseless accusations, yet believing in your widest imagination that what you're saying is true.

Am pretty sure you and your like would be first in casualties of false prophet and false christ Jesus (as) talked about, that will be held swayed through spurious miracles.

Being a Catholic Christian I hope you should ask
@truthman2012 why 7 books in the old testament is expunged in the Protestant Bible as apocryphal. I don't know if you're aware of this.

MUHAMMAD PERFORMED MIRACLES

Miracles of the Islamic Prophet Muhammad are a number of supernatural occurrences, which according to Islamic tradition were made by Muhammad during his lifetime. These miracles are shown either in the Qur'an or, in the vast majority of cases, in the hadith (traditions of Muhammad). Muhammad's miracles encompass a broad range, such as the multiplication of food, manifestation of water, hidden knowledge, prophesies, healing, punishment, and power over nature.[1]

According to historian Denis Gril, the Qur'an does not overtly describe Muhammad performing miracles, and the supreme miracle of Muhammad is finally identified with the Qur'an itself.[2]

However, several miracles are reported in the Quran and miracles "appear early and often in the hadith"[3]

and the hadiths are indispensable in elucidating Muhammad's miracles.
[4]

LIST OF MIRACLES

Quran - considered by Muslims to be Muhammad's greatest miracle[5][6][7]

and a miracle for all times, unlike the miracles of other prophets, which were confined to being witnessed in their own lifetimes.[8]

Splitting of the moon

Isra and Mi'raj (Night Journey)

On several occasions he provided food and water supernaturally.[12]

He comforted a palm tree that was crying and upset after he stopped leaning on it during his sermons.[12]

He caused two trees to move at his command.[12]

Prophecies made by him.

His migration from Mecca to Medina.[13]

He quenched the thirst of thousands of
his soldiers during the Battle of Tabouk and enabled them to use water for ablution after causing water to pour forth.[14]

He caused a well to swell with water during the event of the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah, enabling his followers with him to drink and use the water for ablution.[14]

He threw a handful of dust at some of the enemy during the Battle of Badr, causing them to be blinded. This miracle is mentioned in the Quran, Sura Al-Anfal, Verse 17 (8:17).[14]

When the Jews of Medina claimed that the hereafter belonged to them alone, a Quranic verse was revealed (2:94) saying "Then wish for death. if you are speaking the truth." Muhammad said they would not be able to wish for death and his statement was proven correct, despite the Jews eagerness to disprove the reality of his Prophethood. This challenge was repeated in another Quranic verse (62:6-7) and again was never met by the Jews.[14][15]

He told his companion, Uthman, that a calamity would befall him, which would be followed with his entering paradise; this eventuated during Uthman's Caliphate.[14]

He told his companion, Ammar ibn Yasir, that the unjust party would kill him; this eventuated during the First Fitna.[14]

He said that God would make peace between two large Muslim groups through his grandson Hasan ibn Ali; this eventuated with the Hasan–Muawiya treaty.[14]

He said that a man who was apparently fighting for the Muslim cause would actually be of the people of Hell; this was proven when the man committed suicide in order to remove his suffering following a wound in battle.[14]

He said that he would kill one of the enemies of the Muslims, Ubay ibn Khalaf, which he achieved at the Battle of Uhud.[16]

Before the Battle of Badr, he showed exactly where each of the enemy chiefs would be killed; they all died in the exact locations stated.[16]

He said that a part of his nation would raid by sea; this eventuated with the establishment of Muslim naval power under the Caliphate.[16]

He said that his daughter Fatimah would be the first of his family to die after him; which eventuated.[16]

He told his wives that the most charitable one among them would be the first to die after him; this eventuated with the death of Zaynab bint Jahsh.[16]

He caused Abdullah ibn Masud to convert to Islam after he made a barren ewe, which produced no milk, to produce milk.[16]

He spit into Ali's sick eye, during the Battle of Khaybar, and it became healthy.[1]

His companions would hear the food before him praising God.[1]

He caused it to rain during a drought in Medina.[17]

I would advise you google ''our lady of fatima'', you will discover many fables especially on wikipaedia.

whatever happened in fatima does not dictate how I decide to worship God. Mary appeared there as I much as I read.
Did it happen, I don't know, I was wasn't there. Most Catholics believe so.

Protestants take the word and "prophecies" of their pastors as facts no matter how asinine it maybe. I have come to distrust stories men tell be it clergy, G.Os, priests, politicians or scholars.



I have not seen the pope do more than raising up his hand in a mosque praying like the muslim as shown in a picture.

Thanks for being honest , does that now make him a muslim or "pray islamically" as u said. Does Christianity have a standard form of prayer position, NO.

The pope was invited to the mosque when he visited the country, muslims hardly ever invite non muslims to their mosques.
I have muslims friends and relatives.
If I ever find myself invited to a mosque by a friend I will go and pray that God guides them out of Islam. Does that mean I am a muslim, of course not.



Christians' prayer has no particular form

Full stop. Question answered. So can u see the error of ur initial view on the pope. Did u even know that one of the reasons pope Benedict was not well like in the muslim community was his open stance against Islam. Pope Francis has the same stance on Islam but he is a more jovial person. Does that make him a bad Christian , well let the self righteous judges decide.

I see the Catholics as a religious organisation that is very organized, with dedicated people vast in theology and have very strong moral understanding of scripture and have done a lot of good in the world including fighting the spread of Islam to a standstill in Europe and northern African. I don't discriminate against Christian denominations because at the end God decides.

They are facts. I have read ur quran and hadiths. Mohammed was a disgusting rapist, paedophile, war monger and murderer and died after eating poisoned goat meat . Look at my profile and my past topics. I am not new to the madness that is Islamic teachings.

Are u one of those deluded muslims who thinks mohammed cured people with urine and split the moon in half and flew a donkey for no reason all alleged "miracles" in the fabricated hadiths.

Please u are an adult (I assume) use ur head.

Lol.. Jesus warned Christians of false prophets like mohammed. Why do u think that Christians out number muslims for 1400 years. Because we know mohammed was a fraud.

Do u even know aisha was a girl of 9 when mohammed had intercourse with the child. Is that rIght. Mr muslim use ur head.



Being a Catholic Christian I hope you should ask
@truthman2012 why 7 books in the old testament is expunged in the Protestant Bible as apocryphal. I don't know if you're aware of this.

Christians don't follow the old testament. We follow the new testament. As far as Christianity is concerned we (Catholics, coptics, oriental, Greek and eastern orthodox, protestants, pentecostals etc) are united in the number of books. We believe no new testament book is apocryphal.

Any more questions.

Your state is indeed pathetic, how on earth would you be questioning me on the same issue just explained to you in a plain simple language. Do you ever think before you post at all? well, that's result of dogmatic belief and indoctrination.

I repeat again Proohet Muhammed is INFALLIBLE and cannot commit sin even in sleep. Asking of forgiveness which you failed to appreciate is by saying God forbid that Jesus Christ was a "sinner " because he allowed the thought of satan to assailed him for brief moment which he effectively fought through Bible qoutations. This is similar issue that happened to Prophet Muhammed (saw), that Allah is referring to ask for forgiveness, when asked if you don't know.

Your condemnation of the person of Pope still further show how far away from truth you are, and in that abyss of darkness failed to understand anything of spiritual import.

The point one you raised, can you please post any source which prove your point that holy propehet (saw) did all what you've posted?

Then coming to eating of poisoned meat you and cohort seems to be quoted and yet failed to see the high moral standard of holy prophet in it, here is the anecdote.

A Jewess that happened to be living in the community where holy prophet was living presented a poisoned meat to him, out of complete jealous of the holy prophet. Do you ever pause for a moment to ponder how could holy prophet could have accepted her offer if not for his meekness and mercy to live peacefully with other religion followers.

Now after he felt the pangs of the poison for a moment which Allah cured him thereafter. He was asked to revenge but said NO that he didn't want that, afterall Allah had cured him.

Unfortunately, a companion that ate that meat with holy prophet died and in retribution according to law of old testament, the woman was killed.

The second point you raised, clearly show your hypocrite nature, why? you never accept holy prophet performed any miracle so to say and yet you refer to him as that prophet Jesus is warning you of, that will perform many miracles and wonders, which in your own estimate prophet Muhammed has never performed one.

Third point, you said you never follow old testament when Jesus said he has not come to abolish the law but to fulfill. Who are you following, your ego or pagan moon?

Lastly, when Jesus was asked what to do to enter kingdom of God, he plainly stated without any ambiguity that the person should go and keep the commandments.

Peace.

truthman2012:
The reason Muhammad couldn't perform miracles was simply because he was a sinner. It takes holiness to do miracles. Again,the true God would not tell His prophets to ask for sins forgiveness, He would rather tell them to avoid them.

[Quran 47:19] "So know (O Muhammad)
that there is no God save Allah,
AND ASK FORGIVENESS FOR THY SIN
and for believing men and
believing women. Allah knoweth
(both) your place of turmoil and
your place of rest."

Allah in a clear term said Muhammad should ask for forgiveness of his sins and that of his followers. Therefore, no doubt, Muhammad was a sinner like his followers. Not only that, he was a perpetual sinner at that, asking for forgiveness of sins yet to be committed. He knew he would always commit sins.

“O Allah! Forgive me my sins
that I did in the past or will do
in the future, and also the sins
I did in secret or in
public.” (Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 5919).

He was so consumed by sins that he was committing them anywhere, secretly and publicly

The true God does not condone sins for His prophets and any deliberate sin was visited with severe punishment. A good example is that of Moses. He was strictly punished for striking the rock contrary to God's instruction to speak to it.

Numbers 20:8-12
“Take the staff, and
assemble the congregation,
you and Aaron your
brother, and TELL the rock
before their eyes to yield
its water. So you shall
bring water out of the rock
for them and give drink to
the congregation and their
cattle.”
9 . And Moses took
the staff from before the
Lord, as he commanded
him.
10. Then Moses and
Aaron gathered the
assembly together before
the rock, and he said to
them, “Hear now, you
rebels: shall we bring water
for you out of this rock?”

11. And Moses lifted up his
hand and STRUCK the rock
with his staff twice, and
water came out abundantly,
and the congregation drank,
and their livestock.
12. And
the Lord said to Moses and
Aaron, “Because you did not
believe in me, to uphold me
as holy in the eyes of the
people of Israel, therefore
you shall not bring this
assembly into the land
that I have given them .”

The true God does not tolerate sin for His prophet as allahh did to Muhammad.

He said that a man who was apparently fighting for the Muslim cause would actually be of the people of Hell; this was proven when the man committed suicide in order to remove his suffering following a wound in battle.[14]

He said that he would kill one of the enemies of the Muslims, Ubay ibn Khalaf, which he achieved at the Battle of Uhud.[16]

Before the Battle of Badr, he showed exactly where each of the enemy chiefs would be killed; they all died in the exact locations stated.[16]

He said that a part of his nation would raid by sea; this eventuated with the establishment of Muslim naval power under the Caliphate.[16]

He said that his daughter Fatimah would be the first of his family to die after him; which eventuated.[16]

He told his wives that the most charitable one among them would be the first to die after him; this eventuated with the death of Zaynab bint Jahsh.[16]

He caused Abdullah ibn Masud to convert to Islam after he made a barren ewe, which produced no milk, to produce milk.[16]

He spit into Ali's sick eye, during the Battle of Khaybar, and it became healthy.[1]

His companions would hear the food before him praising God.[1]

He caused it to rain during a drought in Medina.[17]

Thank you bro for this post. I do hope they can read through and see for themselves.

I wouldn't be surprised if they don't, because they've been blindfolded with dogmatic beliefs.

Allah says in their heart is a disease and He increase their disease because they failed to open their heart to see the truth.

Masalam.
Re: Why Muhammad Could Not Do Miracles by DeathStroke007(m): 8:13am On Jan 11, 2016
truthman2012:
The reason Muhammad couldn't perform miracles was simply because he was a sinner. It takes holiness to do miracles. Again,the true God would not tell His prophets to ask for sins forgiveness, He would rather tell them to avoid them.

[Quran 47:19] "So know (O Muhammad)
that there is no God save Allah,
AND ASK FORGIVENESS FOR THY SIN
and for believing men and
believing women. Allah knoweth
(both) your place of turmoil and
your place of rest."

Allah in a clear term said Muhammad should ask for forgiveness of his sins and that of his followers. Therefore, no doubt, Muhammad was a sinner like his followers. Not only that, he was a perpetual sinner at that, asking for forgiveness of sins yet to be committed. He knew he would always commit sins.

“O Allah! Forgive me my sins
that I did in the past or will do
in the future, and also the sins
I did in secret or in
public.” (Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 5919).

He was so consumed by sins that he was committing them anywhere, secretly and publicly

The true God does not condone sins for His prophets and any deliberate sin was visited with severe punishment. A good example is that of Moses. He was strictly punished for striking the rock contrary to God's instruction to speak to it.

Numbers 20:8-12
“Take the staff, and
assemble the congregation,
you and Aaron your
brother, and TELL the rock
before their eyes to yield
its water. So you shall
bring water out of the rock
for them and give drink to
the congregation and their
cattle.”
9 . And Moses took
the staff from before the
Lord, as he commanded
him.
10. Then Moses and
Aaron gathered the
assembly together before
the rock, and he said to
them, “Hear now, you
rebels: shall we bring water
for you out of this rock?”

11. And Moses lifted up his
hand and STRUCK the rock
with his staff twice, and
water came out abundantly,
and the congregation drank,
and their livestock.
12. And
the Lord said to Moses and
Aaron, “Because you did not
believe in me, to uphold me
as holy in the eyes of the
people of Israel, therefore
you shall not bring this
assembly into the land
that I have given them .”

The true God does not tolerate sin for His prophet as allahh did to Muhammad.










To prove you wrong and let you understand..


You claim Prophet Muhammad (saw) is a sinner.. Tell me the sins he committed...



Prophet Muhammad (saw) is the biography of human being. We are to learn from him. NOBODY IS SINLESS. I don't know a single sin Prophet Muhammad (saw) committed but everybody is a sinner, Be it intentionally or intentionally.


Can you tell how many ants you have killed unintentionally while walking? Ant has a life, a family, friends and foe just like you are...


Intentionally sins are baaad.. Tell me.. according to the bible.. Why did Jesus killed the fig tree?






The reason for Allah telling HIS Prophet about asking for forgiveness is to teach Prophet Muhammad that nobody is pure.. Due to the fact that the best of human being, Prophet Muhammad (saw) ask for forgiveness or he was forgiven for his past sins or so IS TO TEACH WE ORDINARY HUMAN BEING THAT FOR PROPHET OF ALLAH TO ASK FOR FORGIVENESS EVEN THOUGH ALL HIS SINS HAVE BEEN FORGIVEN, WE ORDINARY HUMAN BEING MUST ALWAYS ASK FOR FORGIVENESS...






and concerning Prophet Muhammad miracles... Every single Prophet of Allah has their own miracles... you clearly don't know it.. instead of doing research... you Just run your mouth here...








A literate and knowledgeable person NEVER POST OR TALK ABOUT WHAT HE DOESN'T HAVE INDEPTH KNOWLEDGE ABOUT...










Now, to prove to you that nobody in history of the scriptures bears or answers to the name Jesus or Paul or Mathew and others ..... Tell me a single occasion where a Story gets translated into another language and all the names of the characters in the original text gets translated along with the story too..... THAT'S IF YOU EVEN UNDERSTAND WHAT I MEAN...





NEXT TIME, GET YOUR FACTS RIGHT.. THEN POST OR START DISCUSSION.. HATRED WILL NEVER LET YOU SEE TRUTH... NEVER HATE ANYTHING BUT UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING..... ALWAYS ARGUE TO LEARN..

Your state is indeed pathetic, how on earth would you be questioning me on the same issue just explained to you in a plain simple language. Do you ever think before you post at all? well, that's result of dogmatic belief and indoctrination.

I repeat again Proohet Muhammed is INFALLIBLE and cannot commit sin even in sleep. Asking of forgiveness which you failed to appreciate is by saying God forbid that Jesus Christ was a "sinner " because he allowed the thought of satan to assailed him for brief moment which he effectively fought through Bible qoutations. This is similar issue that happened to Prophet Muhammed (saw), that Allah is referring to ask for forgiveness, when asked if you don't know.

Your condemnation of the person of Pope still further show how far away from truth you are, and in that abyss of darkness failed to understand anything of spiritual import.

Peace.

Do you know how ridiculous, dogmatic and ignorant you sound by insisting mohamed was infallible and did not commit any sin even though neither the quoran nor any of the hadiths made such an outlandish claim You claim he did not sin yet is is well documented in your 'holy' books that he was a murderer, genocidal maniac, armed robber(caravan raiding), paedophile, rapist, covetous, adulterous, lying and deceitful narcissist. Mohamed can only be infallible only if going by the extremely low and pathetic islam standards, the above listed are not sins.

Before we continue the discussion I want to let u know that I regularly criticize some catholic doctrine. I have my bible as my go to authority and I try to get the churches standpoint on key social issues, theology etc

I do know the church has a very high regard for Mary which protestants object to. Early Christians also had a very high regard for Mary. Many Christians don't know this, even some scriptures (not included in the bible) says she was born without original sin.

I don't know much about Our lady of Fatma. What does it have to do with the conversation.

When u say pray islamically, what exactly do u mean.

Islamic pray involves several up and down movements including grasping the ears and thighs and reciting pagan verses.

I haven't seen the pope do that.

By the way how is Christian pray, is it by putting ur hands together, or raised up apart or dancing in joy, or quite in meditation.. Because catholics do all that depending on circumstance.
which one did u see the pope do ?
as a Catholic, the Bible alone should not be your only 'go to authority' but also the Church's tradition and teachings of the magisterium

I now understand most of you are of low moral standard that has been BLINDED of their hatred and misguided indoctrination.

Look at yourself just posting without any form of decorum and substance. No doubt, it be unwise of me anymore to join issue with you people that don't even know much about the so called your religion talkless of others worldview (religion).

Henceforth I will only reply those that think and reason before posting, as Bible rightly says. "COME LET US REASON TOGETHER".

Only a brainwashed muslim will believe a man(mohammed) who raped war captives, killed Jews and non muslims, had sex with A minor of 9 yearS , sold slaves and captured slaves and who claimed in the quran that he can't perform miracles; is a prophet.

I guess that standards for prophethood in Islam is pretty LOW.
as much as I admire ur grasp of issues you contribute to, islam in particular, I would luv to know what motivates you. Are u a victim of islamic extremism?

Thanks bro...even if the whole of mankind and jinn combine to produce the like of HOLY QURAN they can't and will fail miserably.

That is a challenge of more than 1400 years in the Holy Quran to every living creature by the lord of the worlds- ALLAH. But, has it will be difficult to explain the beauty of a rose to blind man, so also, it will be for many whom their eyes of the heart has be blurred with lack of knowledge and yet fail to research sincerely for the truth.

The point one you raised, can you please post any source which prove your point that holy propehet (saw) did all what you've posted?


Sahih al-Bukhari 5158—Narrated Urwa: The Prophet wrote the (marriage contract) with Aisha while she was six years old and consummated his marriage with her while she was nine years old and she remained with him for nine years (i.e. till his death).

Sahih Muslim 3310—Aisha reported: Allah’s Apostle married me when I was six years old, and I was admitted to his house when I was nine years old


thats mohammed molesting a child of 9 years old


Bukhari Volume 6, Book 60, Number 466: ...The Prophet then mentioned about the women (in his sermon). "It is not wise for anyone of you to lash his wife like a slave, for he might sleep with her the same evening."
Ie. - beat her but not quite as viciously as you beat your slaves because u many want to have sex with her---lovely!


Qur'an - 4:34 Men are the protectors and maintainers of women,
because Allâh has made one of them to excel the other, and because
they spend (to support them) from their means. Therefore the
righteous women are devoutly obedient (to Allâh and to their
husbands), and guard in the husband's absence what Allâh orders
them to guard (e.g. their chastity, their husband's property, etc.).
As to those women on whose part you see ill-conduct, admonish them
(first), (next), refuse to share their beds, (and last) beat them
, but if they return to obedience, seek not
against them means (of annoyance). Surely, Allâh is Ever Most High,
Most Great.


he was also a woman beater





Then coming to eating of poisoned meat you and cohort seems to be quoted and yet failed to see the high moral standard of holy prophet in it, here is the anecdote.

A Jewess that happened to be living in the community where holy prophet was living presented a poisoned meat to him, out of complete jealous of the holy prophet. Do you ever pause for a moment to ponder how could holy prophet could have accepted her offer if not for his meekness and mercy to live peacefully with other religion followers.

Now after he felt the pangs of the poison for a moment which Allah cured him thereafter. He was asked to revenge but said NO that he didn't want that, afterall Allah had cured him.


the jewish woman is a narrative of sunni muslims to explain mohammeds death, shia/shites believe abu bakr and his daughter aisha poisoned mohammed. either way i dont care, the hadith i read says it was a jewish woman who poisoned him for killing her family and not out of jealousy. show me one hadith that says mohammed got cured from the posion... NONE, he sufferred for years before dieing because he spat out the meat, the other foolish companion eat it and died

Muhammad was poisoned by a Jewish woman, following the conquest of Khaibar, where he took Safiyahas a wife, and ordered the torture and beheading of her husband Kinana, the chief of the Jews at Khaibar.
Narrated Anas bin Malik: A Jewess brought a poisoned (cooked) sheep for the Prophet who ate from it. She was brought to the Prophet and he was asked, "Shall we kill her?" He said, "No." I continued to see the effect of the poison on the palate of the mouth of Allah's Apostle .
Sahih Bukhari3:47:786

Narrated 'Aisha: The Prophet in his ailment in which he died, used to say, "O 'Aisha! I still feel the pain caused by the food I ate at Khaibar, and at this time, I feel as if my aorta is being cut from that poison."
Sahih Bukhari5:59:713



Unfortunately, a companion that ate that meat with holy prophet died and in retribution according to law of old testament, the woman was killed.
actually some hadith says mohammed did not kill her, like the one i quote, a sahih hadith.........i thought u would quote that. so u believe mohammed killed her.. what a shame.. he was an advocate of revenge so u may be right




The second point you raised, clearly show your hypocrite nature, why? you never accept holy prophet performed any miracle so to say and yet you refer to him as that prophet Jesus is warning you of, that will perform many miracles and wonders, which in your own estimate prophet Muhammed has never performed one.



mohammed is one of the many false prophets that have gone into the world, some perform magic some dont.. mohammed was a king not a prophet.. he was a warrior killer and thief.


Third point, you said you never follow old testament when Jesus said he has not come to abolish the law but to fulfill. Who are you following, your ego or pagan moon?

Lastly, when Jesus was asked what to do to enter kingdom of God, he plainly stated without any ambiguity that the person should go and keep the commandments.

Peace.


hahha,,, u have no idea what Jesus meant there and i get tired of explaining it to u muslims. Jesus came to fulfil the old law and give us a new one which we Christians practice. Jesus apparently broke sabbath laws by performing miracles which the jews condemned, saved an adulteress, he drank wine and eat with sinners, all considered abominations and against old law.. did u know that...





by the way do you know how mohammed died, he suffered an death erec.tion as a result of the poison.
Priapismis a potentially painful medical condition, in which the erect pe.nis or clito.ris does not return to its flaccid state, despite the absence of both physical and psychological stimulation


Narrated Aisha, Ummul Mu'minin:
By Allah, we did not know whether we should take off the clothes of the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) as we took off the clothes of our dead, or wash him while his clothes were on him. When they (the people) differed among themselves, Allah cast slumber over them until every one of them had put his chin on his chest.
Then a speaker spoke from a side of the house, and they did not know who he was: Wash the Prophet (peace be upon him) while his clothes are on him. So they stood round the Prophet (peace be upon him) and washed him while he had his shirt on him. They poured water on his shirt, and rubbed him with his shirt and not with their hands...

Abu Dawud20:3135
Ibn Hisham observed, “The apostle’s body did not present the appearance of an ordinary corpse.” (pg. 688) Aisha also noted that If she had known beforehand what she found out later, "none would have washed him except his wives".

Abu al-Fida (1273 – 1331 AD) was a Muslim geographer and historian. He relates that Prophet Muhammad suffered from a death erec.tion.. Ali ibn Abi Ṭalib, the fourth Rightly-guided Caliphof Islam (and also Muhammad's son-in-law and cousin) washed his body after his death, and had exclaimed,"O prophet, thy pe.nis is erect unto the sky!

Perhaps this is why it is Narrated by Aisha, Ummul Mu'minin: [...]Aisha used to say: If I had known beforehand about my affair what I found out later, none would have washed him except his wives.
Abu Dawud20:3135

While this condition is usually observed in victims of hangings, it can also be found in victims of violent deaths by poisoning, fatal gunshot wounds to the brain, or a stroke or other brain embolisms.





LadunaI I have posted sources like u asked. Have u disappeared like most of ur muslim brothers do when i show them disgusting things mohammed did.

How do you reason? Muhammad prayed he should be forgiven his PAST, PRESENT and FUTURE sins, yet you said he was INFALLIBLE. That is very serious. You are trying to deny his documented self-confession. You know what? Muhammad was placed in the same category with his followers on sinfulness, meaning he was as fallible as his followers:

Quran 47:19] "So know (O
Muhammad)
that there is no God save Allah,
AND ASK FORGIVENESS FOR THY
SIN
and for BELIEVING MEN AND BELIEVING WOMEN. Allah knoweth
(both) your place of turmoil and
your place of rest."

That verse is so clear that it takes a glaring lie to say Muhammad was not a sinner unless of course it was Muhammad and allahh who were lying.

Don't compare Jesus with Muhammad, both the Bible and quran testify to it that He was faultless and perfect. He had no sin to confess like Muhammad. Jesus was tempted by satan like man because He came in form of a man. Temptation by satan is no sin until you fall into it, which Jesus never did. Your knowledge of spiritual things is shallow or not there at all.

Quran 19:19] He said: I am only a messenger of thy Lord, that I may bestow on thee a faultless son.

The faultless son there is referring to Jesus.

MUHAMMAD PERFORMED MIRACLES

Miracles of the Islamic Prophet Muhammad are a number of supernatural occurrences, which according to Islamic tradition were made by Muhammad during his lifetime. These miracles are shown either in the Qur'an or, in the vast majority of cases, in the hadith (traditions of Muhammad). Muhammad's miracles encompass a broad range, such as the multiplication of food, manifestation of water, hidden knowledge, prophesies, healing, punishment, and power over nature.[1]

According to historian Denis Gril, the Qur'an does not overtly describe Muhammad performing miracles, and the supreme miracle of Muhammad is finally identified with the Qur'an itself.[2]

However, several miracles are reported in the Quran and miracles "appear early and often in the hadith"[3]

and the hadiths are indispensable in elucidating Muhammad's miracles.
[4]

LIST OF MIRACLES

Quran - considered by Muslims to be Muhammad's greatest miracle[5][6][7]

and a miracle for all times, unlike the miracles of other prophets, which were confined to being witnessed in their own lifetimes.[8]

Splitting of the moon

Isra and Mi'raj (Night Journey)

On several occasions he provided food and water supernaturally.[12]

He comforted a palm tree that was crying and upset after he stopped leaning on it during his sermons.[12]

He caused two trees to move at his command.[12]

Prophecies made by him.

His migration from Mecca to Medina.[13]

He quenched the thirst of thousands of
his soldiers during the Battle of Tabouk and enabled them to use water for ablution after causing water to pour forth.[14]

He caused a well to swell with water during the event of the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah, enabling his followers with him to drink and use the water for ablution.[14]

He threw a handful of dust at some of the enemy during the Battle of Badr, causing them to be blinded. This miracle is mentioned in the Quran, Sura Al-Anfal, Verse 17 (8:17).[14]

When the Jews of Medina claimed that the hereafter belonged to them alone, a Quranic verse was revealed (2:94) saying "Then wish for death. if you are speaking the truth." Muhammad said they would not be able to wish for death and his statement was proven correct, despite the Jews eagerness to disprove the reality of his Prophethood. This challenge was repeated in another Quranic verse (62:6-7) and again was never met by the Jews.[14][15]

He told his companion, Uthman, that a calamity would befall him, which would be followed with his entering paradise; this eventuated during Uthman's Caliphate.[14]

He told his companion, Ammar ibn Yasir, that the unjust party would kill him; this eventuated during the First Fitna.[14]

He said that God would make peace between two large Muslim groups through his grandson Hasan ibn Ali; this eventuated with the Hasan–Muawiya treaty.[14]

He said that a man who was apparently fighting for the Muslim cause would actually be of the people of Hell; this was proven when the man committed suicide in order to remove his suffering following a wound in battle.[14]

He said that he would kill one of the enemies of the Muslims, Ubay ibn Khalaf, which he achieved at the Battle of Uhud.[16]

Before the Battle of Badr, he showed exactly where each of the enemy chiefs would be killed; they all died in the exact locations stated.[16]

He said that a part of his nation would raid by sea; this eventuated with the establishment of Muslim naval power under the Caliphate.[16]

He said that his daughter Fatimah would be the first of his family to die after him; which eventuated.[16]

He told his wives that the most charitable one among them would be the first to die after him; this eventuated with the death of Zaynab bint Jahsh.[16]

He caused Abdullah ibn Masud to convert to Islam after he made a barren ewe, which produced no milk, to produce milk.[16]

He spit into Ali's sick eye, during the Battle of Khaybar, and it became healthy.[1]

His companions would hear the food before him praising God.[1]

He caused it to rain during a drought in Medina.[17]

Fables !! Laughing !!!

Allahh stated in no ambiguos term that Muhammad couldn't perform miracles.

Muhammad was asked to perform miracle: Quran17: 90
They say: "We shall not believe in
thee, until thou cause a spring to
gush forth for us from the earth.

Allahh said no, Muhammad couldn't perform any miracles because he was an ordinary man, a messenger:

[Quran. 17: 93]
Say: "Glory to my Lord! Am I
aught but a man,- a
messenger?"

Despite these clear quranic statements, islamists still went ahead to fabricate miracles for Muhammad. If Muhammad actually did miracles, allahh must be lying that he could not or islamists lying that he could. Who is lying?

I know y Christian believers believe that Jesus is God is because of the nature of his birth but whereas its just God displaying the magnificent of his power to mankind that there is nothing he can't do.

sorry sir you are wrong,

the question you should have asked is that why did God go about Jesus birth this way?

the nature of his birth really has a message you should find out

But if your prophet is so perfect like you claimed, why do you continue pray for allah peace upon him

well one thing is clear there is no peace for the wicked according the the scripture meaning if you are righteous you will have peace and no body will need to ask for peace on your behalf
