Happiness is
Submission to God Alone

Illustrations of Prophet on Internet

Thus, the messenger shall serve as a witness among you, and you shall serve as witnesses among the people. Therefore, you shall observe the Contact Prayers (Salat) and give the obligatory charity (Zakat), and hold fast to GOD; He is your Lord, the best Lord and the best Supporter.

Jesus was one of the prophets of Islam and according to the Quran, Muslims shall not make any distinction among any of God’s prophets and messengers. Why don’t Muslims get upset viewing the image of Jesus but get utterly upset seeing the image of Muhammad?! Why do they make distinction among God’s prophets?!

[2:136] Say, “We believe in GOD, and in what was sent down to us, and in what was sent down to Abraham, Ismail, Isaac, Jacob, and the Patriarchs; and in what was given to Moses and Jesus, and all the prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction among any of them. To Him alone we are submitters.”

The imaginary prohibition on the image of Prophet Muhammad gives him a godly image in the hearts of millions of Muslims who were taught to think that Muhammad was created from light!  Consequently, they are making darwood and praising him day and night beside God!

Muslims don’t get upset even seeing images of God in books or websites! Why?! Do they have more love for the Prophet Muhammad than God Almighty?!

[2:165]  Yet, some people set up idols to rival GOD, and love them as if they are GOD. Those who believe love GOD the most. If only the transgressors could see themselves when they see the retribution! They will realize then that all power belongs to GOD alone, and that GOD's retribution is awesome.

[3:144] Muhammad was no more than a messenger like the messengers before him. Should he die or get killed, would you turn back on your heels? Anyone who turns back on his heels, does not hurt GOD in the least. GOD rewards those who are appreciative.

[18:110] Say, “I am no more than a human like you, being inspired that your god is one god. Those who hope to meet their Lord shall work righteousness, and never worship any other god beside his Lord.”

Last but not least, there is no compulsion in Islam.  So, why there is a petition initiated to remove the pictures from Wikipedia?! 

[2:256] There shall be no compulsion in religion: the right way is now distinct from the wrong way. Anyone who denounces the devil and believes in GOD has grasped the strongest bond; one

that never breaks. GOD is Hearer, Omniscient.

Comments From a Christian

Hello,

My name is Dan and as a Christian and a perpetual learner, I wanted to learn more about Islam.

I really enjoyed your site and found it to be very informative and helpful. It contains perspectives which are easy to understand and by also using wikipedia.org, I have been able to gain a substantial amount of knowledge regarding Islam, the Quran, and true tenets of Islam....

Thank you for your work
