Islam is a Semitic religion, which has over one billion adherents all over the world. Islam come from the root word "salam" which means peace, Islam also means "submission to the will of God". Muslims accept the Qur’an, as the word of God revealed to His last and final prophet, Mohammed (peace be upon him). Islam states that Allah sent messengers and prophets throughout the ages with the message of Unity of God, and accountability in the Hereafter. Islam thus makes it an article of faith to believe in all the earlier prophets, starting with Adam, and continuing with Noah, Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, David, John and Jesus amongst many others (may peace be on them all).









The Most Concise Definition of God:

The most concise definition of God in Islam is given in the four verses of Surah Ikhlas which is Chapter 112 of the Qur’an:



"Say: He is Allah,

The One and Only.

"Allah, the Eternal, Absolute.

"He begets not, nor is He begotten.

And there is none like unto Him."

[Al-Qur’an 112:1-4]



The word ‘Assamad’ is difficult to translate. It means ‘absolute existence’, which can be attributed only to Allah (swt), all other existence being temporal or conditional. It also means that Allah (swt) is not dependant on any person or thing, but all persons and things are dependant on Him.

1) "Islam" means "peace through the submission to God".



2) "Muslim" means "anyone or anything that submits itself to the will of God".



3) Islam is not a cult. Its followers number over 1.85 billion worldwide. Along with Judaism and Christianity, it is considered to be one of the three Abrahamic traditions.



4) There are five pillars of practice in Islam. These practices must be undertaken with the best of effort in order to be considered a true Muslim:

A) Shahadah - declaration of faith in the oneness of God and that Muhammad is the last prophet of God.

B) Formal prayer five times a day.

C) Fasting during the daylight hours in the month of Ramadan.

D) Poor-due "tax" - 2.5%of one's savings given to the needy at the end of each year.

E) Pilgrimage to Mecca at least once, if physically and financially able.



5) There are six articles of faith in Islam. These are the basic beliefs that one must have in order to be considered a true Muslim. They are belief in:

A) the One God.

B) all the prophets of God.

C) the original scriptures revealed to Prophets Moses, David, Jesus, and Muhammad.

D) the angels.

E) the Day of Judgment and the Hereafter.

F) the divine decree (or destiny).



6) Islam is a complete way of life that governs all facets of life: moral, spiritual, social, political, economical, intellectual, etc.



7) Islam is one of the fastest growing religions in the world. To become Muslim, a person of any race or culture must say a simple statement, the shahadah, that bears witness to the belief in the One God and that Prophet Muhammad was the last prophet of God.



8) "Allah" is an Arabic word that means "God". Muslims also believe that "Allah" is the personal name of God.



9) Allah is not the God of Muslims only. He is the God of all people and all creation. Just because people refer to God using different terms does not mean that they are different gods. Spanish people refer to God as "Dios" and French people refer to God as "Dieu", yet they are all the same God. Interestingly, most Arab Jews and Arab Christians refer to God as "Allah". And the word Allah in Arabic appears on the walls of many Arab churches.



10) The Islamic concept of God is that He is loving, merciful, and compassionate. But Islam also teaches that He is just and swift in punishment. Nevertheless, Allah once said to Prophet Muhammad, "My mercy prevails over my wrath." Islam teaches a balance between fear and hope, protecting one from both complacency and despair.

See liars will always get exposed.



Nay, We hurl the Truth against falsehood, and it knocks out its brain, and behold, falsehood doth perish! Ah! woe be to you for the (false) things ye ascribe (to Us).

Towards which religion COMMON SENSE leads us?



COMMON SENSE # 1: Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said like true prophets of Allah Abraham, Moses & Jesus etc to believe in only ONE true God, not like other fools who used to preach IDOLS.



COMMON SENSE # 2: Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said believe in Jesus and his revealed book (original one which is lost) and Mosses and his revealed book (original one which is lost) and all revealed books and prophets otherwise u can not be a Muslim. If he is not the true prophet (MAAZ ALLAH) then why he said that believe in them otherwise u will be sent to HELL. Read “ EMAN-E-MUFASSIL “ & ” EMAN-E-MUJAMEL “ 2 testify.



COMMON SENSE # 3: Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) never said that he is (MAAZ ALLAH)” God “but strictly said that there is only one ALLAH (God) and no one is like him. If he is not the true prophet (MAAZ ALLAH) then why he said that

He is ALLAH’s last prophet & not bragged about himself (MAAZ ALLAH) as God, as so many ppl did.



COMMON SENSE # 4:Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said like true prophets before him like Abraham, Moses & Jesus about the JUDGEMENT DAY.



COMMON SENSE #5:If u see Prophet Jesus (peace be upon him) in pictures made by Non-Muslims he has same kind of beard like Muhammad (peace be upon him) had & Muslims have, And also Mother Marry dress in pictures made by Non-Muslims, is exactly 100% same as Muslim women do dress.



COMMONE SENSE # 6:Non-Muslims say that Muhammad (peace be upon him) plagiarize the Holy Quran from the Holy Bible but this is NOT possible because Muhammad (peace be upon him) was not educated, then how he could do such a thing?



COMMONE SENSE # 7:Another reason that Muhammad (peace be upon him) can’t plagiarize from the Holy Quran from the Holy Bible is that “The Holy Bible at the time of Muhammad (peace be upon him) was not translated in ARABIC language then how he could plagiarize from it”?



COMMON SENSE # 8:Non-Muslims claim that Muhammad (peace be upon him) himself wrote the Holy Quran , if so then why his name is only used in the Holy Quran only 5 times & Jesus (peace be upon him) name 25 times, Prophet Moses (peace be upon him) name comes 136 times in the Holy Quran, If (Maaz Allah) Muhammad (peace be upon him) wrote the Holy Quran then why not he used his name more than any other prophet?



COMMON SENSE # 9:If Muhammad (peace be upon him) MAAZ ALLAH not a prophet then why he used to pray 5 times a day and conveyed the message of ALLAH that this an order from ALLAH, & in ISLAM u can’t pray without performing ablution. Why Muhammad (peace be upon him) used to pray? What for? For who?



COMMON SENSE # 10:If Muhammad (peace be upon him) MAAZ ALLAH not a prophet then why he himself performed “HAJJ” which is the toughest of the pillars of ISLAM, and said that it is FARZ (Imperative) for all Muslims who have the money to afford it. For who? What for?



COMMON SENSE # 11:Why Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) strictly ordered not to do "SAJDA" before any body but ALLAH. IF he is not MAAZ ALLAH not a prophet then why he said so? Why not he said do "SAJDA" to me as well?



COMMON SENSE# 12:If Muhammad (peace be upon him) MAAZ ALLAH not a prophet then why he used to "FAST" for the whole month of "RAMADAN" for 29 to 30 days without a break & why he most of the time used to PRAY in TARAWEEH (long prayer) and other prayers after the FAST? for who? For what?



COMMON SENSE# 13:If Muhammad (peace be upon him) MAAZ ALLAH not a prophet then why he used to give ZAKAAT (Money to poor) and said that this is God’s order and every one who can afford should give ZAKAAT. FITRAA is also a God’s order and it is also giving money to poor ppl. Why he used to do that himself and said that this is IMPERATIVE for all Muslims who can afford ZAKAAT & FITRAA.For what and for who?



COMMON SENSE# 14:If Muhammad (peace be upon him) MAAZ ALLAH not a prophet then why he used to give KHAIRAT to poor ppl which is again giving money to needy ppl to gain reward from ALLAH.



COMMON SENSE#15:Even Abraham (Pbuh), Moses (Pbuh) used to dress like Muslims, cover head, beard and thoroughly covered body.



COMMON SENSE#16:There is a Quranic verse named after mother of Jesus (Pbuh), the name of the verse is Surrah-e-Mayam.If prophet Muhammad (Pbuh) is MAAZ ALLAH not a prophet then why not he named the Quranic verse name after his mother? Allah says that he choose Mary above “the women of all nations”. Why not Muhammad (Pbuh)‘s mother if he MAAZ ALLAH wrote the Holy Quran himself. (3:42). AL-E-IMRAN (THE FAMILY OF 'IMRAN, THE HOUSE OF 'IMRAN) "Behold! the angel said: 'God has chosen you and purified you and has chosen you above the women of all nations. O Mary! God gives you the good news of a word from Him, whose name shall be Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, honored in this world and the hereafter, and one of those brought near to God".



COMMON SENSE#17:If Muhammad (Pbuh) is not a TRUE prophet then why he never used alcohol and made it strictly prohibited, which is always use by humans for fake enjoyments. for whom? What for? Why?



COMMON SENSE#18: Muhammad (Pbuh) went to MAKKAH to perform Hajj from MEDINA with all of his followers but with no arms when the ppl of MAKKAH were to HOSTILE against Muslims, for whom? What for? Why?



I COULD HAVE WRITE TONS OF TONS MORE COMMON SENSES BUT IF I DO THIS, THEN WHAT WILL BE LEFT FOR U TO THINK ABOUT?



My E-Mail address is: actions_furysroar@yahoo.com.



May Allah help & guide us all, Amen’.
