Thank you everyone for your contributions. All of the resources you've given me will be valuable. I'll be active, but probably not that active on this forum over the next couple of weeks whilst I thoroughly read the Qur'an. One person from Manchester has already contacted me, if there is anybody else from Manchester as well around on here, let me know!

Thank you again.

Indeed all the praises is due to Allah, we praise him and we seek his assistance and forgiveness, and we seek refuge in Allah from the evil of ourselves and our bad deeds, whoever Allah guides there is none that can misguide him and whoever is leads astray there is none that can guide him,

Whoever Allah wishes good for he guides him to islam? I hope you will be the one of them nick.



I just want to say read the HOLY QURAN and you will believe Muhammad and ISA (Jesus) peace be upon them, were ALLAHS prophets. There is no chance that WE muslims did copy the old and the new testament its would be impossible but it was revealed through our beloved prophet Muhammad Peace and ALLAHS blessing be upon him . Read his biography too.

Alphonse de Lamartine

(1790-1869) French poet and statesman.

Philosopher, orator, apostle, legislator, warrior, conqueror of ideas, restorer of rational dogmas, of a cult without images; the founder of twenty terrestrial empires and of one spiritual empire, that is Muhammad. As regards all standards by which human greatness may be measured, we may well ask, is there any man greater than he?”


from Histoire De La Turquie, Paris, 1854, vol. II, pp. 276-277



Reverend Bosworth Smith

(1794-1884) Late Fellow of Trinity College, Oxford.

“… he was Caesar and Pope in one; but he was Pope without the Pope’s pretensions, and Caesar without the legions of Caesar. Without a standing army, without a bodyguard, without a palace, without a fixed revenue, if ever any man had the right to say that he ruled by a right Divine, it was Mohammed; for he had all the power without its instruments and without its supports.”

[Mohammed and Mohammedanism, London, 1874, p. 235

 

[BrotherInIslam7]

BrotherInIslam7, many thanks for that youtube playlist, I've watched one and a bit of those videos and they're very interesting, although do not discuss Jesus as a prophet. Are there any videos that do?

Hello Nick,

My apologies to you too for not getting back to you earlier. I am delighted that you find those interesting. Abdur Raheem Green reasons very well and most of what he speaks is easy to comprehend and interesting at the same time. Masha'Allah (whatever Allah wills)..

With regards to Jesus as a prophet in Islam, I recommend :-

Jesus: A prophet of Islam Part 1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMCd-sqrW4g

Jesus : Beloved prophet of Islam Beginning of Lecture

^^ You can find the successive parts of the second lecture series in the information box of the video.


I hope you enjoy the videos that I have recommended you. Please feel free to ask for more resources or any questions that you may have.

I wish you all the best and I pray that Almighty God grants you the right guidance Ameen.

Peace

Masha Allah...That was very quick brother..I mean the other day you were unsure about Prophet Muhammad (Peace be Upon Him) and Jesus (Peaace be Upon him). Subhan Allah, Allah guided you towards HIS light.

I am very very happy Alhamdolillah. Thanks for sharing the news

Very Welcome to Islam my brother. May Allah make learning and practice easy for you,

Asslam u Alakium

 

[BinteShafi]

Hi everyone,


I accept Muhammed as a great man, but I have not decided whether or not he is God's final prophet. I similarly can't decide whether or not Jesus was a prophet or son of God.
Nick.

Brother Can I ask a question ?

I would love to know that, how did you find the truth. When and how the above question in your mind got answer. Was that any verse in Quran?

I am very much curious to know...

Jazak Allah (May Allah give you good reward)

Hi everyone,

To give a brief introduction to myself: My name is Nick and I'm a medical student at the University of Manchester in the UK. Up until the age of 15 I was an atheist through and through, but then after a bit of a health problem (nothing serious (nor anything exciting!)) I had a complete epiphany of my life from religion through to career: I wanted to do medicine and when I was in hospital I felt like God was speaking to me.

Now, I'm British through-and-through, so I turned to the Church of England as that was what my family was. Well, it was alright, but I felt it was very dilute and I didn't feel anything spiritual really, but my life improved. I then looked into Orthodoxy and I really liked a lot of what it had to offer, it felt much more spiritual and I really felt I connected with God, but I kept on going for Christianity.

I never properly met a Muslim until the age of 19 at uni and at first I felt that they were rather segregated from everyone else in my year and was intimidated by them, but I've got to know many Muslims and they all have qualities I admire. For a non-Muslim, I feel I know quite a bit, the five pillars, what's Sunnah, what's Haram, but I've never read the Qur'an. Now 22, I've just acquired a copy and have started reading it.

I would like to speak to Muslims I know about it, but they have been brought up as Muslims their whole life. I'd quite like to speak to anyone on here about Islam and questions I have etc, as well as speaking to converts. I'm undecided about where to go with my faith: I accept Muhammed as a great man, but I have not decided whether or not he is God's final prophet. I similarly can't decide whether or not Jesus was a prophet or son of God. I hope that once I finish reading the Qur'an my faith is revealed to me: Islam or Christianity.

If anyone would like to speak to me, or if anybody would be kind enough to give me guidance, I would sincerely appreciate it.

Many thanks,

Nick.

aselemu aleikum nick, i wish more people would actually use their curiosity the way you use it..

also, nobody can guide you here except if ALLAH the most high wants you to be guided...therefore i advice you to be sincere in your quest for the truth, also i advice you to read as much as you can from books that are considered to be good in the islamic world, rather than to gather your info from ''hear say''.

if you need such books just pm me, ill sent you a couple with pleasure.

GOD willing you will see and understand the truth very soon why ALLAH cant have a son, and why he is not a son of anyone.
this being a very huge essential issue in islam, you cANT be a muslim without understanding and accepting this, nor will any good person in this world denying the oneness of ALLAH gain any reward in the hereafter...so this is huge and essential in islam.
