Why Islam and not other religions?

 Why Islam and not other religions?




1- Islam gives logical and simple idea for God - He is a perfect God - He is neither a man nor a son of man nor an Idol or a  Godhead (trinity) nor limited nor created - He is totally uncomparable, unique and to Himbelongs all the good qualities, names, attributes and oneness.


2-Islam accepts all Messengers and Prophets of God - 


 In Islam, we love all the Prophets of God and we can't deny any of them - while in other religions such as Judaism for example - they reject Jesus and Mohammed -- and in Christianity they reject Muhammad ... but in Islam,we accept all  Prohets without discrimination.


3-In Islam, there is no mediator between you and God -- you can pray to God directly - there is no need for someone in between.


4- Islam is the Only religion that is Not named after a person or a tribe or a group, its name means submission to the One True God, if anyone anywhere at any time lived the life of submission to the true God alone , then heis a Muslim.


5- In Islam (worship) is not about mere rituals.it's a comprehensive term that includes any deed that pleases God.All good deeds are types of worship : smiling, being sincere at work, saying a nice word, and even treating one's spouse gently, all this is greatly rewarded by God.On the other hand,  any deed that doesn't please God is a sin;talking bad about people is a sin, cheating, lying, hurting innocent people, harming the environment, etc.


6-In Islam, God is always Forgiving - if you always repent (before death ) He will just accept you no matter how great sins you did.He forgives us out of His own grace - there is no price to be paid in order for Him to forgive.So, it's not like Christianity which says that God can't forgive except by blood of Jesus.


7-Islam is a way of life – it organises each aspect in your life.It has solutions and divine guidelines to problems in your life .


8-The amazing sources of Islam were also collected and saved.They are intact, never distorted.This never happened to any book in history.These sources, the Holy Qur'an - the Speech of God, and the Sunnah - the Prophet's tradition - are conveyed through the uncut chain of known narrators who registered all prophet's tradition from His time up to now... besides the millions who memoriseit from cover to cover since that time up till today - Not to forget being documented in front of the Prophet, peace be upon him,  by known companions.

The Holy Qur'an is the only book in the world which remained unchanged and  intact for for more than fourteen centuries.


9-Islam prohibits blind following without knowledge and it invites us to use our brains to know truth, it is based on evidence and logic.The rational mind is the basis for religious accountability and responsibility.

The Holy Qur'an is 6236 ayahs ,verses, 1046  of which  invite us to respect the mind , to think , mediate and contemplate, using the power of the intellect.Allah the Almighty asks us to give proof for anything.


10-the moral system of Islam is very high and perfect and thus the countries that apply Islamic laws in a proper way  have less moral crimes.


11- Paradise in Islam is a real physical life for both Body and soul, you will go there , eating drinking marrying and meeting with prophets and having wonderful eternal life and free from doing work or worship;unlike in other religions which they think it is only spiritual life .


12- You won't lose Jesus if you accept Islam, but you will just correct your belief in him.In Islam, Jesus, peace be upon him,  stands for a good position in Islam.He is one of greatest 5 Messengers of God (Noah,  Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and Muhammed), peace be upon them all).Together with other messengers, they were all special and they were all humans like us.None of them is to be be worshiped ;we only worship God Who sent them .We believe that Jesus was a noble Messenger of God but not divine;we love Jesus and obey his true teachings

  Housekeeper defiles employer’s daughters, bags life imprisonment Bright Izuchukwu, a housekeeper, was sentenced to two terms of life imprisonment on Monday by the Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Offenses Court in Ikeja for defiling his employer's six- and seven-year-old girls.
