Refuting Lies About Islam

Refuting Butterfly


                             Introduction

She is a Christian women married to a Muslim.......
We had a little debate a short time ago.....
She could not refute any of the points i presented to her and I refuted all the points that she presented.....
After some time.....
She could not take it and ran away.....
She is a hypocrite by nature.....
Once she said to me"I love Muslims,i have nothing against them"
and after sometime....
I got this "Hate mail" from her........

From: Butterfly (Springtime Song)
Subject: Re: salaam

Message: Jesus was a Jew, not a Muslim. There is more to being a Muslim than believing in one God, if not then the shahada would not include stating the belief that Muhammed was the prophet of God. Since he wasn't even around during any of the prophets lives or during Jesus' lifetime then none of them can be Muslim.
I find no need to defend my religion or the Bible. It is the word of God and was given to all people and you have the choice to accept it or not. Of course as a Christian I wish you to accept it because it is the truth and the way to God, but God has given you the free will to choose it or deny it.
I don't think it is very wise of you to pick verses that you think show disgust when your own prophet chose to marry a 6 year old girl and consumate that marriage when she was only 9. That is something that would never be ordained by God. He did so because he desired a child. Because of his actions this is still being practiced in many Islamic countries where poor innocent victims are being sold to filthy old men who are pedophiles. Because of passages in the quran about killing infidels, the radical Muslims use this verse to justify their killing of innocent victims, many being Muslims themselves. There is much in the quran that was clearly written for that time and should be changed. That is a major flaw in the quran in that it does not allow for evolution of the times and many of it's followers are still living as they were 1400 years ago.

I have one of the last messages i sent to her........
After that........
There was no message from her!!!
Lets look at that message.......

"Assalam-0-Alikum"
"Peace Be Upon You"

You could have said" I don't know about Christianity and i won't message u again".....
but since u were a losing a lost war....
then i don't blame U......
I have proved nothing??
i also forgot that i quoted scientific errors in the Bible....
i also quoted and proved Jesus Christ never claimed divinity...
and once again there was no answer from U.....
and u said i have proved nothing.....
someone said that "Butterfly" is a sweet person ans she loves Muslims that is why she married one....
and U told me "I have nothing against Quran or Muslims that is why i hang out i Ramadan section.....
then i received Your message with full of hate towards my beloved Prophet......
Isn't that your hypocrisy...??
U say that U love a man but hate what he loves the most...
so i copy pasted one of your "hate" messages.....
and told how Hypocrite Christians are....
I have wasted a lot of time on you and you r sill not believing that forces of Allah has won.....

I Refuted her every point in a way that there was no Counter-Argument from her....

She asked many questions out of which...some were interesting enough to be refuted..........
 
Which i will refute Inshallah!!

Questions

All Muslims I know say that all the prophets were Muslim because they believed in one God. Why then in order?to be a Muslim one must say the shahada which includes saying Muhammed was the prophet of God. If it wasn't necessary to say this then(obviously Muhammed was not alive) then why must one say it now. Just saying there is one God does not make a person Muslim. Have you all forgotten that most if not all of the prophets were actually Hebrews which is not Islam or Muslims?

My Response:

Yes i know that Prophet Muhammad(pbuh) was not alive at the time of Jesus Christ(pbuh) and other Prophets......
But all the Prophets of God preached oneness of Allah and gave the Glad tidings of a Prophet to come in the future which would "testify" and "Glorify" Jesus Christ (pbuh)....

Sūra 61: Ṣaff 6. And remember, Jesus, the son of Mary, said: "O Children of Israel! I am the apostle of Allah (sent) to you, confirming the Law (which came) before me, and giving Glad Tidings of an Messenger to come after me, whose name shall be Ahmad." But when he came to them with Clear Signs, they said, "this is evident sorcery!"

similarly in Bible.........
"He (the Spirit of truth) shall Glorify Me (Jesus): for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you."But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall Testify of Me."John 15:26


A "Muslim" literally means a person who obeys the commandments of Jesus Christ(pbuh) and Jesus Christ was a Muslim according to the Bible.....
How??
The word "Islam" has been derived from two words...."Silm" which means to surrender and "Salaam" which means "Peace"..In short,Islam literally means "Peace acquired by submitting your will to Allah"
Let us see what Bible says.........

"I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgement is just; because I seek not my own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me." [The Bible, John 5:30]

Anyone who says "Not my will,but the will of God",is a Muslim!!!Jesus Christ was a Muslim!!!

Question 2

When a person converts to Islam do they get materials showing them the difference between sunni and shia?Are they taught to hate the other sect? How would it make a new convert feel when they choose Islam because of the peace they think it promotes and then find out they are supossed to hate shia or sunni instead of showing love towards their fellow man. If one of you were responsible in helping a new convert would you tell them all about the "bad" things the other sect believes in and promote hatred of that sect? Just wondering since the attempt at unity went so well(rolls eyes).

My Response:
Let us see what Dr.Zakir Naik says :

1. Muslims should be united

 

It is a fact that Muslims today, are divided amongst themselves. The tragedy is that such divisions are not endorsed by Islam at all. Islam believes in fostering unity amongst its followers.

 

The Glorious Qur’an says:

 

"And hold fast,

All together, by the rope

Which Allah (stretches out for you),

and be not divided among yourselves;"

[Al-Qur’an 3:103]

 

Which is the rope of Allah that is being referred to in this verse? It is the Glorious Qur’an. The Glorious Qur’an is the rope of Allah which all Muslims should hold fast together. There is double emphasis in this verse. Besides saying ‘hold fast all together’ it also says, ‘be not divided’.

 

Qur’an further says,

 

"Obey Allah, and obey the Messenger"

[Al-Qur’an 4:59]

 

All the Muslim should follow the Qur’an and authentic Ahadith and be not divided among themselves.

 

2. It is prohibited to make sects and divisions in Islam

 

The Glorious Qur’an says:

 

"As for those who divide

Their religion and break up

Into sects, thou hast

No part in them in the least:

Their affair is with Allah:

He will in the end

Tell them the truth

Of all that they did."

[Al-Qur’an 6:159]

 

In this verse Allah (swt) says that one should disassociate oneself from those who divide their religion and break it up into sects.

 

But when one asks a Muslim, "who are you?", the common answer is either ‘I am a Sunni, or ‘I am a Shia’. Some call themselves Hanafi, or Shafi or Maliki or Humbali. Some say ‘I am a Deobandi’, while some others say ‘I am a Barelvi’.

 

3. Our Prophet was a Muslim

 

One may ask such Muslims, "Who was our beloved prophet (pbuh)? Was he a Hanafi or a Shafi, or a Humbali or a Maliki?" No! He was a Muslim, like all the other prophets and messengers of Allah before him.

 

It is mentioned in chapter 3 verse 52 of Al-Qur’an that Jesus (pbuh) was a Muslim.

 

Further, in chapter 3 verse 67, Al-Qur’an says that Ibrahim (pbuh) was not a Jew or a Christian but was a Muslim.

 

4. Qur’an says call yourselves Muslim

 

a. If anyone poses a Muslim the question who are you, he should say "I am a MUSLIM, not a Hanafi or a Shafi". Surah Fussilat chapter 41 verse 33 says:

         

"Who is better in speech

Than one who calls (men)

To Allah, works righteousness,

And says, ‘I am of those

Who bow in Islam (Muslim)?’ "

[Al-Qur’an 41:33]

 

The Qur’an says "Say I am of those who bow in Islam". In other words, say, "I am a Muslim".

 

b. The Prophet (pbuh) dictated letters to non-Muslim kings and rulers inviting them to accept Islam. In these letters he mentioned the verse of the Qur’an from Surah Ali Imran chapter 3 verse 64:

 

Say ye: "Bear witness

That we (at least)

Are Muslims (bowing

To Allah’s Will)."

[Al-Qur’an 3:64]

 

5. Respect all the Great Scholars of Islam

 

We must respect all the great scholars of Islam, including the four Imaams, Imam Abu Hanifa, Imam Shafi, Imam Humbal and Imam Malik (may Allah be pleased with them all). They were great scholars and may Allah reward them for their research and hardwork. One can have no objection if someone agrees with the views and research of Imam Abu Hanifa or Imam Shafi, etc. But when posed a question, ‘who are you?’, the reply should only be ‘I am a Muslim’.

 

Some may argue by quoting the hadith of our beloved Prophet from Sunan Abu Dawood Hadith No. 4579. In this hadith the prophet (pbuh) is reported to have said, "My community will be split up into seventy-three sects."

 

This hadith reports that the prophet predicted the emergence of seventy-three sects. He did not say that Muslims should be active in dividing themselves into sects. The Glorious Qur’an commands us not to create sects. Those who follow the teachings of the Qur’an and Sahih Hadith, and do not create sects are the people who are on the true path.

 

According to Tirmidhi Hadith No. 171, the prophet (pbuh) is reported to have said, "My Ummah will be fragmented into seventy-three sects, and all of them will be in Hell fire except one sect." The companions asked Allah’s messenger which group that would be. Where upon he replied, "It is the one to which I and my companions belong."

 

The Glorious Qur’an mentions in several verses, "Obey Allah and obey His Messenger". A true Muslim should only follow the Glorious Qur’an and the Sahih Hadith. He can agree with the views of any scholar as long as they conform to the teachings of the Qur’an and Sahih Hadith. If such views go against the Word of Allah, or the Sunnah of His Prophet, then they carry no weight, regardless of how learned the scholar might be.

 

If only all Muslims read the Qur’an with understanding and adhere to Sahih Hadith, Inshallah most of these differences would be solved and we could be one united Muslim Ummah.

I don't need to say anything.....
The question Has been refuted!!

Question 3

When a Muslim leaves Islam most say it's because his Imam was weak or he wasn't a good Muslim to begin with.

So that also means that when a Christian, Jew, etc. leaves their religion to convert to Islam that they were also weak in their faith and not a good Christian, Jew, etc. Why would you want them in your religion if they were not strong enough in their faith before? Just because they convert to Islam does mean they are going to be a better Muslim than they were a Christian, Jew, ect.

Islam is the Fastest Growing Religion on Earth

 Surah Fussilat:

"Soon We will show them our signs in the (farthest) regions (of the earth),
and in their own souls, until it becomes manifest to them that this is the Truth.
Is it not enough that thy Lord doth witness all things?"

[Al-Quran 41:53]


"It is He who has sent His Messenger with the guidance and the religion of truth, so that He may make it victorious over all other religions, even though the disbelievers detest it"
(Surah As-Saff 61:9)

___________________________________________________________
When a Muslim leaves Islam(happens rarely),his faith is indeed very weak and He/she thinks it is a very hard religion to follow.....
But when a Christian accepts Islam.....
He/she has a strong faith that is why He/she accepts Islam!!
unlike You(butterfly)!!!
When u could not refute me!!
it shows how weak your faith is and how strong my faith is!!
Al-hamdu-lil-lah!!

One more thing...
I have talked to only 2 apostates of Islam and when i tried to message them for a discussion.....
Guess what??
They never replied!!
It shows that they had no reason to leave Islam....Just Left Islam to follow Nakedness and lewdness and join the path of Chrsitians....
And I have talked to hundreds of converts!!!

Question 4

How can I ask this without sounding anti-Islam, which is not intended?


Please, please, please understand it is not my intent to bash Islam or sound negative about it so please do not be offended. I know that most Muslims despise the radical terrorists and speak out about the atrocities they commit and they say what the terrorists are doing is not Islamic. What I don't understand about this is that most Muslims will tell you that the quran was written for all people for all time, past, present and future. Muhammed sanctioned many wars and any act of violence was permitted. The terrorists are doing what is permissable according to the quran and if the quran is supossed to be for all time then how can Muslims say the actions of the terrorists are not Islamic. It seems that in this situation Muslims say those things were only permitted during the time of Muhammad's lifetime and not for all time as previously said.
If the violence wasn't allowed during Muhammad's lifetime and written in the quran then the terrorists would not have those passages to justify their actions. Is this because it was only allowed during times of war. Since these terrorists think they are at war with non-Muslims(and with other Muslims) doesn't this mean it is allow according to the quran? Please I am seriously trying to understand this. Would you please give me your opinions (any quranic passage or hadith is appreciated too) why you consider their actions to be non-Islamic. Please be respectful in your answers as I truly mean no disrespect to Islam or Muslims and I apologize in advance if I have offended anyone.

MY Response:


We know your intentions....U r trying to Bash Islam....
But...
It is a lame argument.....
What would America do if North Korea attacked it????
Would they defend themselves or not??
They would....
That is what Prophet Muhammad(pbuh) did!!!
He defended his family instead of going on the cross and committing Suicide....
And Muslims who r killing Innocent people r not true Muslims because they r not following Islam...........
"...If anyone killed a person not in retaliation for murder or to spread mischief in the land, it would be as if he killed the whole of mankind. And (likewise) if anyone saved a life, it would be as if he saved the whole of mankind"(Surah Al-Maaida 5:32)







"Allah does not forbid you to deal justly and kindly with those who fought not against you on account of religion, nor drove you out of your homes. Indeed, Allah loves those who deal with equity" (Surah Al-Mumtahinah 60:8)



"There is no compulsion in religion. The right path has indeed become distinct from the wrong. So whoever rejects false worship and believes in Allah, then he has grasped the most trustworthy handhold that will never break. And Allah is All Hearing, All Knowing"(Surah Al-Baqarah 2:256)

So it is clear that Islam does not preach violence..............

Question 5

Sura Maryam vs 33 says that when Jesus as a baby spoke that He said "So peace is on me the day I was born the day I die and the day that I shall be raised up to live(again)". If Muslims believe that Jesus was replaced on the cross by Judas and that God took Him to heaven without Him dying then when is He supossed to die?

My Response:


JESUS (PBUH) SAID, "THE DAY THAT I DIE", NOT "THE DAY THAT I DIED"
  It is mentioned in Surah Maryam, Chapter 19 verse 33   "So Peace is on me the day I was born, the day that I die and the Day that I shall be raised up to life (again)". [Al-Qur’an 19:33]   The Qur’an mentions that Jesus (pbuh) said "Peace is on me the Day I was born, the day that I die". It is not stated "the day that I died". It is in the future tense and not in the past tense.   JESUS (PBUH) WAS RAISED UP ALIVE    The Qur’an further says in Surah Nisa, Chapter 4 verse 157-158:   "That they said (in boast), ‘We killed Jesus Christ the son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah’ – But they killed him not, Nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not –   Nay, Allah raised him up unto Himself; and Allah is exalted in Power, Wise." [Al-Qur’an 4:157-158]

Question 6

I know that Islam teaches that the bible and torah are also books of God?but it is said that anything in those books that conflicts with what is in the quran that they have been changed. My question is how many of you have ever read any of the other books of God other than the quran? Are you knowledgeable about what each book contains because you've read them or only because you've read what Islam says about them?

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AgeQCSz1uazCJWkLXcrVX9vty6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20080107215104AAXhuHT

My Response:

Quran does not teach that Bible is the word of God....
Bible has been derived from the greek word "Biblious" which means book....
so Holy Bible means Holy Book.....
The word "Bible" itself is not in the Bible.....!!
We believe that Injeel was the book revealed to Jesus Christ(pbuh) and Torah was the book revealed to Moses(pbuh)
The present Bible is not Injeel...
It is nowhere close to Injeel!!

Question 7  

If the below Sura is correct then why can Muslim men marry a woman who is Christian or Jewish?
Sura 5:51

"Believers, take neither the Jews nor the Christians for your friends. They are friends with one another. Whoever of you seeks their friendship shall become one of their number. God does not guide the wrongdoers." (Dawood)

" O ye who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians for friends. They are friends one to another. He among you who taketh them for friends is (one) of them. Lo! Allah guideth not wrongdoing folk." (Pickthall)


This was from an email sent to me in regards to my answering a question that Muslims could be friends with Christians and Jews and Muslim men could even marry them. I don't know enough about the verses in the quran to answer him back and it got me wondering about this as it's a contradiction. Thanks for any help.


http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Am.YiXV_EOT.Z7cmRvTSOp_ty6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20071218205912AAL7R32

My Response:

 Yes....
Islam tells you to "beware" of Christian Zionists...
But there are some Good Christians(unlike You).....
The Holy Qur'an 2:62 – Translation by Yusuf Ali

Those who believe (in the Qur’an), and those who follow the Jewish (scriptures), and the Christians and the Sabians,- any who believe in God and the Last Day, and work righteousness, shall have their reward with their Lord; on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.
So Christians who believe In Jesus Christ(pbuh) as a Messenger and believe that Allah (God) is one and believe in a future Prophet will get a reward and those Christian women are allowed to marry Muslim men(unlike You)

As Allah says in Quran about people like you and trinitarians..........
In Surah-Al-Maidah


72 They surely disbelieve who say: Lo! Allah is the Messiah, son of Mary. The Messiah (himself) said: O Children of Israel, worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord. Lo! whoso ascribeth partners unto Allah, for him Allah hath forbidden paradise. His abode is the Fire. For evil-doers there will be no helpers.
73
 They surely disbelieve who say: Lo! Allah is the third of three; when there is no God save the One God. If they desist not from so saying a painful doom will fall on those of them who disbelieve.
74
 Will they not rather turn unto Allah and seek forgiveness of Him ? For Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

Question 8

Does anyone know of any websites that scientifically refute the "scientific" miracles of the Quran?

I know there have been non-Muslim scientist that say some of the passages in the quran can be proven scientifically, but I'm wondering if there is anything that refutes it. I've looked at some anti-Islamic sites, but they don't try to disprove the scientific miracles. Does anybody know of any?

Others was a waste of my time...
Let us hope and wish and Pray to Almighty Allah to open her heart and see the truth......
Open her ignorant heart..
So that hypocrisy in it should be destroyed......
As Allah says in Surah Al Baqrah about people like her.....
