Islam does not hate christianity

Hi, Surely you know that this is incorrect!Judaism has prophets.Christianity has prophets.Muhammad, prophect of Islam.Sikhism, Guru Nanak was a prophet.Moronism, Joseph Smith was a prophet.In fact, all theistic religions must have had prophets.Brian.

The more of your posts I read the more ignorance of other faiths I find. Good God man, what is the Hebrew equivalent of the name Mary?You should treble check everything you say as most of it is inaccurate.Brian.

Remember 'Desdamona', she had this idea that all palestinians were evil muslims but changed her tune when this was pointed out to her: I wonder what Faith makes of the way Israel treat(ed) Christians in Palestine.A double standard anyone?Brian.

Hi, Afraid not, and it also applies to Will Durant because this is a common error that some ill-informed Christians imagine is in the Qur'an.Check it our for yourself, Mary has a Surah (19) named after her.19-:28 "O sister of Aaron! Thy father was not a man of evil, nor thy mother a woman unchaste!"
O sister of Aaron! Thy father was not a wicked man nor was thy mother a harlot.
O sister of Haroun! your father was not a bad man, nor, was your mother an unchaste woman.The imagine error is caused by certain people taking this literally when it was in fact very common to use this type of language metaphorically.From HERE This claim of contradiction is apparently mistaken because it disregards both the Arabic idiom and the context of the verse. In Arabic the word akhun or ukhtun (Underlined with Red colour in the images) carries two meanings.

​

1. Blood brother or sister and
2. Brotherhood/sisterhood in clan and faith.

​

The above verse has used the word ukhtun in the second sense. This is not unusual as the Qur'an uses the same idiomatic expression in several earlier verses. In chapter 11 verse 78, Prophet Lot refers to the women folk of his community as my daughters. There is no contradiction.The Bible uses this type of language as well:Luke 1:5 (KJV) THERE was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth. How many times was Jesus called the Son of David? Was he literally the son of David.Your hatred is blinding you to the beauty of this world.Brian.PS, Mary is as much a literal sister of Aaron as Buz is a Jew This message has been edited by Brian, 02-26-2005 05:58 AM
