C.
“Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised
from the dead according to my (Paul) gospel.” But we have to
believe it. It is for redemption of sins.
M
. According to the Church’s teaching it is of redemption, but as
you have seen in the preceding arguments it is false. Islam is
based on reason and is a pure
teaching of all Prophets of Allah,
not contaminated with paganism and superstition.
C.
That is the belief I am looking for.
M
. Don’t you think that now is the time to consider accepting the
Shahadah (Witness)?
C
.
Yes, now I am ready to accept the truth of Islam, so I shall
read it. Please help me to pronounce it in Arabic.
“I bear witness
that there is no deity except Allah, Who has no partner, and I
bear witness that Muhammed is His slave servant and
messenger.” “Ashhadu Allah Ilaha illal-Lahu wahdahu la
shareeka lahu, wa ash-hadu anna Muhammadan abduhu wa
rasuluh.”
M
. Al-Humdulillah! (Praise is to Allah). You have now entered
the fold of Islam and are a Muslim. Now you will have to learn
about the obligatory duties and practice them. Any Imam /
Sheikh will be happy to teach them to you. They are all very
simple and practical.
N.B.: The rest of the discussion will be conducted between two
Muslims: M and m.
m
. Tell me, has Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) been prophesied in
the Bible?
