How to EFFECTIVELY witness to Muslims, Islam

This article is useful for sharing the salvation Gospel to Muslims. Using a Koran is essential when ministering to Muslims.

This article is not insinuating that Allah is the Elohim of the Bible. Please see muslimministry.com

"Please be seated brothers and sisters, and please open your Qurans if you got them, to Surah 2:87"

Surah 2:87

We (Allah) gave Musa (Moses) the Book and followed it up with succession of Messengers... END

This verse can only refer to the Torah, since only the Torah was given to Moses. See also Surah 2:89, 101.

Surah 3:3-4

and He (Allah) sent down the LAW and the Injeel (Great news) before this as a guide for mankind.

ok why are Muslims not reading the Torah and Bible? Surah 3:4 just said the Law and Injeel were for ALL MANKIND!!!

It gets better. Surah 2:136

Say ye "We believe in Allah, and the revelation given to us, and to Abraham... and that given to Musa and Isa (Jesus) and that given to all Prophets from their Lord: We make no difference between them and another of them..." END

So all revelation stands on equal footing by order of Allah.

Surah 5:44

It was We (Allah) who revealed the LAW therein was guidance and light. By its standards have been judged the Jews, by the prophets who bowed to Allah's will... END

see also Surah 4:54 and 6:92

IT GETS EVEN BETTER....

Surah 5:46

We (Allah) sent Jesus son of Mary, confirming the law that had come before him: We sent him the Injeel (Great news): therein was guidance and light and confirmation of the law that had come before him: a guidance and an admonition to those WHO FEAR ALLAH. END

ALL WHO FEAR ALLAH SHOULD READ THE BIBLE.

The Quran orders all Muslims to read and obey the previous revelations from Allah, the Law, the Prophets and the Injeel, known collectively in the Quran as the BOOKS or the BOOK.

Surah 2:285

Each one of them believe in His (Allah's) Messenger. We make no distinction between one and another of his Messenger.

Again all revelation was to be considered equally divine.

Surah 4:136

Any who denieth Allah, His angels, His books, His Messengers and the Day of Judgment has gone far far astray. END

What is the punishment for Muslims who reject the previous Books and Messengers previous to Muhammad? Those Muslims are considered INFIDELS.

Surah 40:70-72

Those who reject the Book and the (revelation) with which we sent Our messengers: but soon shall they know....They shall be dragged along- in the boiling fetid fluid; then in the Fire (Hell) shall they be burned. END

Now here is where it gets REALLY REALLY GOOD.

Surah 10:94

If thou were in doubt as to what We (Allah) have revealed to thee then ask those who have been reading the BOOK from before thee. END

Allah considers the compilation of Jewish and Christian scrolls, referred to as the BOOK, to be preeminent to the Quran. The verse is clear... all questions for understanding the Quran should be asked to Christians or answered by reading the BOOK, the Bible, this is the order of Allah.

Finally... the Quran encourages Muslims and Christians to read the New Testament.

Surah 5:47

Let the people of the Injeel (Great news) judge by what Allah hath revealed therein. If any do fail to judge by what Allah hath revealed, they are no better than those who rebel. END

There is no verse in the Quran that claims any part of the Bible was changed or corrupted.

The Imams and Ayatollahs and Muftis may say whatever they want to brainwash Muslim masses.

But the Quran clearly and EMPHATICALLY supports reading the Bible as equal to the Quran in wisdom.

The Bible is a message from Allah to all mankind, according the Quran.

The Quran emphatically claims the Bible to be the word of Allah, and that the Bible is not corrupted. By the time of 650 Common Era, after Messiah, the Eastern Orthodox Bible canon was long established. Yes the Roman Western Bible did contain the Apocrypha, and the Eastern Orthodox canon did not, but neither Bible is corrupted at all. By 650, Bible manuscripts existed wherever there were Christians.

In order for the universal Biblical corruption to occur, as claimed by Muslim clerics, all Bible manuscripts worldwide must have the same textual corruption. The clerics insist that the Bible was universally tampered and corrupted after Mohammad's ministry, since the Quran claims the Bible at the time of Mohammed is the word of God.

This postulate of a corrupted Bible after Muhammad is implausible since Bible manuscripts OLDER THAN MUHAMMAD STILL EXIST TODAY. They are not corrupted in any manner, not even INsignificantly. The pre Muhammad Bibles are identical to the Bible manuscripts written after Muhammad's life.

As to the claim the Bible was universally corrupted before Muhammad's ministry, well the cleric would be rejecting Allah's claims, declaring Allah to be a liar.

As it states in Surah 4:146 and 40:72 listed above...

those who reject HIS Books (the Law, The Prophets, The Gospel), have gone far far astray, and will be punished in the FIRE.

The claim of the Quran, the message of Allah, is that the Bible is wise and trustworthy. In the original Islam, before Ayatollahs, Muftis, or Imams existed, the Bible has the answer to ALL questions that the Quran does not answer.

Yes, that is correct. The Bible offers what the Quran does not.

The Bible offers the LOVE of YHWH.

YHWH seeks a personal relationship with you. YHWH desires that you experience a loving tangible love from God.

But your human SIN nature separates you from God.

Muhammad did not offer a solution to this grave problem of Sin. Sin separates mankind from God's love and prescence.

Isa the Al-Masih lived without sin and did offer a solution to the great problem. He succeeded in restoring God's prescence only to those who accept the Great news INJEEL.

This solution is the INJEEL, the Great news, the Gospel; that Isa Yahshua came to restore God's prescence and love to mankind through his BLOOD SACRIFICE, which removes ALL the sin of him who accepts the blood of the Messiah Al-Masih.

Isa Yahshua succeeded in supplying a plan for YOUR eternal salvation. Are you going to accept the FREE GIFT of eternal salvation and eternal paradise and eternal peace with God?

The Al-Masih Yahshua God-man will come back on the Day of Judgment. He will LOVE only those who loved his GOSPELS and LAW and Prophets. The enemies of the Jews and true Christians will not be loved.

As it states in Surah 4:146 and 40:72 listed above...

those who reject HIS Books (the Law, The Prophets, The Gospel), have gone far far astray, and will be punished in the FIRE.

Many fake Christians exist, and this confuses Muslims.

Well dear reader, if a Christian is Anti-semitic and anti-Torah, rest assured he is NOT a true Christian. Such a person is an idolater who worships an Anti-Semitic false God and most likely also an Anti-Semitic mother Mary. Praying to Mary or to any Dead Saint are not traditions that are found in any Bible. Not even in the Apocrypha.

Not every Christian who claims to follow Christ actually does follow his teachings. Actually... most Christians do not follow the original teachings of the Messiah. That is what this website is trying to rectify!
