Warum Islam? Why Islam ? translated into German

Laßt uns offen reden.  Fast nie beschäftigen sich Nicht-Muslime mit dem Islam, bis sie von den Enthüllungen ihrer Religionen das erstemal erschöpft sind.  Nur wenn sie mit den Religionen, die ihnen bekannt sind, unzufrieden geworden sind, das heißt, mit dem Judentum, dem Christentum und all den modernen “Dingen” – Buddhismus, Taoismus, Hinduismus (und, wie meine kleine Tochter hinzufügte, “Tourismus”) – erst dann denken sie über den Islam nach. 
Vielleicht beantworten andere Religionen nicht die wichtigen Fragen des Lebens, wie “Wer machte uns?” und “Warum sind wir hier?”  Vielleicht bringen die anderen Religionen nicht die Ungerechtigkeiten des Lebens mit einem gerechten und unparteiischen Schöpfer in Einklang.  Vielleicht finden wir in der Geistlichkeit Heuchlerei, unhaltbare Glaubensdoktrinen im Kanon oder Veränderungen in der Schrift.  Welcher Grund auch immer, wir erkennen Unzulänglichkeiten in den uns bekannten Religionen und sehen uns anderswo um.  Und das ultimative “anderswo” ist der Islam. 
Nun, Muslime hören es gar nicht gerne, wenn ich sage, der Islam ist das “ultimative anderswo”.  Aber es ist so.  Ungeachtet der Tatsache, dass ein Viertel bis ein Fünftel der Weltbevölkerung Muslime sind, besudelt die Nicht-Muslimische Presse den Islam mit so grauenhaften Verleumdungen, dass nur wenige Nicht-Muslime die Religion in einem positiven Licht sehen.  Daher ist es normal, dass dies die letzte Religion ist, die jene, die nach der Wahrheit suchen, erforschen.
Ein anderes Problem ist, dass die Nicht-Muslime, die den Islam überprüfen, durch die anderen Religionen, die sie kennengelernt haben, skeptisch geworden sind: Wenn jede von “Gott-gegebene” Schrift, die wir je gesehen haben, verändert worden ist, wie kann dann die Schrift des Islam anders sein?  Wenn Scharlatane Religionen manipuliert haben, um ihren Wünschen nachzukom-men, wie können wir uns vorstellen, dass mit dem Islam nicht dasselbe geschehen ist? 
Die Antwort benötigt nur wenige Zeilen, aber es braucht Bücher, um sie zu erklären.  Die kurze Antwort lautet: Es gibt einen Gott.  Er ist gerecht und unparteiisch, und Er will, dass wir die Belohnung des Paradieses erreichen.  Wie auch immer, Gott hat uns dieses weltliche Leben als eine Prüfung auferlegt, um die Würdigen von den Unwürdigen abzusieben.  Und wir wären verloren, wenn wir mit unseren Absichten uns selbst überlassen blieben.  Warum?  Weil wir nicht wissen, was Er von und will.  Ohne Seine Leitung können wir nicht die Wellen und Wogen des Lebens umsegeln und deshalb hat Er uns Leitung in Form von Offenbarung gegeben. 
Sicherlich sind die früheren Religionen verändert worden, und das ist der Grund, warum wir eine Kette von Offenbarungen haben.  Frag´ dich selbst: warum sollte Gott eine andere Offenbarung schicken, wenn die vorangegan-genen Schriften noch immer rein wären?  Nur wenn die vorangegangenen Schriften verändert worden sind, muss Gott eine andere Offenbarung senden, um die Menschheit auf den richtigen Weg zu leiten. 
Also sollten wir vermuten, dass die vorangegangenen Schriften verändert wurden, und wir sollten vermuten, dass die letzte Offenbarung rein und unverfälscht ist.  Wenn sie nicht rein wäre, müsste sie ebenfalls ersetzt werden, denn wir können uns keinen liebenden Gott vorstellen, der uns irregehen lässt.  Was wir uns vorstellen können, ist dass Gott uns eine Schrift gibt, und die Menschen verändern sie; Gott gibt uns eine andere Schrift, und die Menschen verändern sie wieder ... und wieder, und wieder.  Bis Gott eine letzte Offenbarung schickt und verspricht, sie bis ans Ende der Zeit zu bewahren. 
Muslime betrachten den Heiligen Quran als diese letzte Offenbarung.  Du denkst, er … könnte es wert sein, mal hineinzuschauen.  Lasst uns zum Thema des Artikels zurückkehren: Warum Islam?  Warum sollten wir glauben, dass der Islam die Religion der Wahrheit ist, eine Religion, die die reine und letzte Offenbarung besitzt? 
“Oh, vertraut mir einfach.”
Nun, wie oft hast du diese Antwort schon gehört?  Ein bekannter Komiker pflegte zu scherzen, dass Leute aus verschiedenen Städten einer den anderen auf verschiedene Arten verfluchten.  In Chicago verfluchen sie jemanden so, aber in New York sagen sie einfach: “Vertrau´ mir.”
Also, vertrau´ nicht mir – vertrau´ unserem Schöpfer.  Lies den Quran und studiere gute websites.  Aber was auch immer du tust, fang an, nimm´ es ernst und bete zu unserem Schöpfer, damit Er dich leitet.  
Dein Leben mag nicht davon abhängen, aber deine Seele ganz bestimmt.

The danger of disrespecting your parents

The Holy Prophet (S) said. “One who displeases the parents, (it is as if) he has displeased Allah. One who angers both his parents (it is as if) he has angered Allah.” Elsewhere, it is mentioned, “One who hurts his parents, hurts me and one who hurts me has hurt Allah. And the one who hurts Allah is accursed.” Āq al-Walidayn is Not Eligible For Divine Forgiveness The wretchedness of the Āq al-Walidayn is sufficiently evident from the fact that the trustworthy Jibrīl (a.s.) has cursed him and said, “One who is blessed with parents but does not fulfill their (his parent’s) rights will not be forgiven (his sins) by Allah.” 3 When Jibrīl (a.s.) said this, the Holy Prophet (S) uttered, ‘Amen’! DONT disrespect, shout, ignore, annoy, disobey, disregard, disturb our parents. They were looking after us when we were nothing but an easy prey to anything around. They were awake during the nights to make us sleep and feel us secured. We may not remember a thing in the childhoo

Medical, Scientific and religious Reasons for not Eating Pork:

People ask me all the time, Why don't you eat pork? ...Is it for  religious reasons? ...Are you vegetarian? Are you a Muslim or a Jew  ? Do you know that pork taste good ? Honestly, just today I was even asked for sound scientific evidence affirming the danger of eating pork. I will share a few findings with you. Medical and Scientific Reasons for not Eating Pork: This is a direct quote from "What the Bible Says About Healthy Eating" by Dr. Rex Russell. He attended Baylor School of Medicine in Houston, Texas and did his residency at the Mayo Clinic at Rochester, Minnesota. Let us watch this short video , let the conversation begin: "One reason for God's rule forbidding pork is that the digestive system of a pig is completely different from that of a cow. It is similar to ours, in that the stomach is very acidic. Pigs are gluttonous, never knowing when to stop eating. Their stomach acids become diluted because of the volume of food, allowing all kind

An open letter to Jehovah Witness :

A letter to Jehovah Witness by Rachidm: Dear Jehovah’s Witnesses: I would like to share with you some biblical research based upon my discussions with Jehovah’s Witnesses friends. My wife used to be a Jehovah Witness. When we got married, I, as a  Muslim told her ; "you have the right to practice your religion". I even offered to give her a ride if needed to the Kingdom hall ( Jehovah Witness place of worship ) .  With an open mind, I supported her and told her I would never mind her practicing and preaching her religion. During our first couple years  of blessed and happy marriage together, I was privileged to engage with my parents in law (upon their request) in a comparative study between Islam and their beliefs. Although they were discouraged from dialogue since they believe their way is the only correct way, I always enjoyed a good open discussion about religion in general. My Mom in law offered me a copy of the New World Translation  (a

“And no bearer of burdens shall bear another’s burden”. (Quran 35:18)

The idea of Jesus dying on the cross is central to the Christian belief.  It represents the conviction that Jesus died for the sins of mankind.  The crucifixion of Jesus is a vital doctrine in Christianity; however Muslims reject it completely.  Before describing what Muslims believe about Jesus’ crucifixion, it may be useful to understand the Islamic reaction to the notion of original sin. When Adam and Eve ate from the forbidden tree in paradise, they were not tempted by a serpent.  It was Satan who deceived and cajoled them, whereupon they exercised their free will and made an error in judgement.  Eve does not bear the burden of this mistake alone.  Together, Adam and Eve realised their disobedience, felt remorse and begged for God’s forgiveness.  God, in his infinite mercy and wisdom, forgave them.  Islam has no concept of original sin; each person bears responsibility for his own deeds. “And no bearer of burdens shall bear another’s burden”. (Quran 35:18) There is no need

THE DOCTRINE OF ORIGINAL SIN

Greetings of peace, This post is an answer to a new friend whom I recently met and respect , a devout Christian  passionate about sharing his religion with others , who challenged me to provide some proofs regarding why Muslims don't accept the doctrine of  original sin; a doctrine ( including the concept of trinity ) that  was  added by the Church at the Council of Nicaea some 325 years after Jesus left the earth.  Notice I say left the earth ( meaning resurected alive by Allah )  and not died yet or crucify as some claims ,  but that is a topic for another day. Back to the doctrine of original sin. Are we born with so called Original sin or born innocent ? Is a Newly Born Baby really a Sinner? Islam Challenges The Concept of Original Sin. Let us found out why ? let's take a look at the following passages from The Bible: (Deuteronomy 24:16)   “The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the father
