- A Critical Response - Answers to Lies Against Islam The Deception of Anis Shorrosh and His Likes In Focus
"Is Jesus God?" - A Debate Between Anis Shorrosh and Ahmad Deedat [1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5]
They think that they deceive God and those who have accepted Faith, but they do not deceive except themselves and yet they do not perceive this. In their hearts is a disease so God has increased them in this disease. For them is a tormenting punishment for their falsehood. When it is said to them (hypocrites): "Do not make mischief on the Earth," they say: "Why? We only want to make peace!" Beware, they are the ones that cause mischief but they do not realize. [al-Qur'an - al-Baqarah (2):8-12]
And say: "Truth has come and falsehood has vanished, and falsehood by nature is a vanishing thing." [al-Qur'an - al-Israa' (17):81]
On January 26th, 2002 a well-known preacher of Christian Missionary lies against Islam, some of which date back to the Crusades, visited the Northwest Panhandle area of Florida. Indeed, it is strange that those who invited him choose to rely on learning Islam from a non-Muslim, regardless of how qualified and recognized this person claims to be. Likewise, it should be known that the local Muslim community was not properly notified in advanced of this talk. Also, we would like to point out that from what we know, those who invited him to the area took delight in mentioning that Anis Shorrosh has debated Muslims in the past, such as Ahmad Deedat, however, we wonder how many cassette and video tapes of these debates were distributed to the members of their congregation to benefit from?
Anis Shorrosh and others who assign to themselves false titles of being "experts of Islam" have had their so-called "expositions on Islam" refuted on many occassions. As a result of the horrible attacks of 9/11, they have jumped at the opportunity to take
advantage of the emotions of those who do not know much about Islam, from amongst Christians and even Muslims!
Anis Shorrosh in particular uses his Palestinian background and common knowledge of Arabic language as proof of his "knowledge" regarding Islam. Unforunately, this tends to impress Christians who do not realize the major insignificance of Mr. Shorrosh being an Arab (only 20% of Muslims are Arabs) and they trust him assuming he will teach them the truth, rather than lie and try to confuse and mislead them. Surely, only someone with a false message must use trickery and deceit in order to convince people of its validity.
Have you been lied to by Mr. Shorrosh and his likes?
Is Islam really as evil as they make it out to be?
Do you want to know the truth about Islam?
Click here for answers to their lies and refuse to be taken advantage of emotionally and mentally by the likes mentioned above! May God guide us all to the truth.

No one is compelled
to accept the truth, but it is certainly a shame upon the human intellect
when a man is not even interested in finding out what the truth is!
Islam teaches that our Creator
has given human beings the faculty of reason. Therefore, it is incumbent
upon them to reason things out objectively and systematically for themselves
to ponder, to question and to reflect.
Nobody should press you to make
a hasty decision to accept any of the teachings of Islam, for Islam teaches
that human beings should be given the freedom to choose. Even when a person
is faced with the truth, there is no compulsion upon him to embrace it.
But before you begin to form an
opinion about Islam, ask yourself whether your existing knowledge about
it is thorough enough. Ask yourself whether that knowledge has been obtained
through third party sources who themselves have probably been exposed to
only random glimpses of Islamic writings and have yet to reason out on
Islam objectively and systematically themselves.
Is it fair enough that one should
form an opinion about the taste of a particular dish just by a mere hearsay
from others who may themselves have not necessarily tasted the dish yet?
Similarly you should find out
for yourself about Islam from reliable sources and not only taste it, but
rather digest it very well before you form an opinion of it. That would
be an intellectual approach to the truth.
In making your next move to the
truth, Islam continually reassures you that your rights to freedom of
choice and freedom to use that God-given faculty of thought and reason
will be respected, for everyone has that individual will. No one else
can take away that will and force you to submit to the true way of your
Creator, you have to find out and make that decision yourself!
May your intellectual journey towards
the truth be a pleasant and fruitful one. [Top]

Islam and Muslims
The word "Islam" is an Arabic
word which means "submission to the will of God." This word comes from the
same root as the Arabic word "salam," which means "peace." As such, the religion
of Islam teaches that in order to achieve true peace of mind and surety of
heart, one must submit to God and live according to His Divinely revealed
Law. The most important truth that God revealed to mankind is that there is
nothing divine or worthy of being worshipped except for Almighty God, thus
all human beings should submit to Him. The word "Muslim" means one who submits
to the will of God, regardless of their race, nationality or ethnic background.
Being a Muslim entails willful submission and active obedience to God, and
living in accordance with His message. Some people mistakenly believe that
Islam is just a religion for Arabs, but nothing could be further from the
truth. Not only are there converts to Islam in every corner of the world,
especially in England and America, but by taking a look at the Muslim World
from Bosnia to Nigeria, and from Indonesia to Morocco, one can clearly see
that Muslims come from many various races, ethnic groups and nationalities.
It is also interesting to note that in actuality, more than 80% of all Muslims
are not Arabs - there are more Muslims in Indonesia than in the whole Arab
World! So though even though it is true that most Arabs are Muslims, the large
majority of Muslims are not Arabs. However, anyone who submits completely
to God and worships Him alone is a Muslim. [Top]
Continuity of the Message
Islam is not a new religion because
"submission to the will of God," i.e. Islam, has always been the only acceptable
religion in the sight of God. For this reason, Islam is the true "natural
religion," and it is the same eternal message revealed through the ages to
all of God's prophets and messengers. Muslims believe that all of God's prophets,
which include Abraham, Noah, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad, brought the same message
of Pure Monotheism. For this reason, the Prophet Muhammad was not the founder
of a new religion, as many people mistakenly think, but he was the Final
Prophet of Islam. By revealing His final message to Muhammad, which is an
eternal and universal message for all of mankind, God finally fulfilled the
covenant that He made with Abraham, who was one of the earliest and greatest
prophets. Suffice it to say that the way of Islam is the same as the way
of the prophet Abraham, because both the Bible and the Qur'an portray Abraham
as a towering example of someone who submitted himself completely to God
and worshipped Him without intermediaries. Once this is realized, it should
be clear that Islam has the most continuous and universal message of any
religion, because all prophets and messengers were "Muslims," i.e. those
who submitted to God's will, and they preached "Islam," i.e. submission to
the will of Almighty God. [Top]
The Oneness of God (Tawheed)
The foundation of the Islamic faith
is belief in the Oneness of Almighty God - the God of Abraham, Noah, Moses
and Jesus. Islam teaches that a pure belief in One God is intuitive in human
beings and thus fulfills the natural inclination of the soul. As such, Islam's
concept of God is straightforward, unambiguous and easy to understand. Islam
teaches that the hearts, minds and souls of human beings are fitting receptacles
for clear divine revelation, and that God's revelations to man are not clouded
by self-contradictory mysteries or irrational ideas. As such, Islam teaches
that even though God cannot be fully comprehended and grasped by our finite
human minds, He also does not expect us to accept absurd or demonstrably
false beliefs about Him. According to the teachings of Islam, Almighty God
is absolutely One and His Oneness should never be compromised by associating
partners with Him - neither in worship nor in belief. Due to this, Muslims
are required to maintain a direct relationship with God, and therefore all
intermediaries are absolutely forbidden. From the Islamic standpoint, believing
in the Oneness of God means to realize that all prayer and worship should
be exclusively for God, and that He alone deserves such titles as "Lord"
and "Savior." Some religions, even though they believe on "One God," do not
make all of their worship and prayers for Him alone. Also, they also give
the title of "Lord" to beings that are not All-Knowing, All-Powerful and Un-Changing
- even according to their own scriptures. Suffice it to say that according
to Islam, it is not enough that people believe that "God is One," but they
must actualize this belief by proper conduct. In short, in the Islamic concept
of God, which is completely based on Divine Revelation, there is no ambiguity
in divinity - God is God and man is man. Since God is the only Creator and
continual Sustainer of the Universe, He is transcendent above His creation
- the Creator and the creature never mix. Islam teaches that God has a unique
nature and that He is free from gender, human weaknesses and beyond anything
which human beings can imagine. The Qur'an teaches that the signs and proofs
of God's wisdom, power and existence are evident in the world around us.
As such, God calls on man to ponder over the creation in order to build a
better understanding of his Creator. Muslims believe that God is Loving,
Compassionate and Merciful, and that He is concerned with the daily affairs
of human beings. In this, Islam strikes a unique balance between false religious
and philosophical extremes. Some religions and philosophies portray God
as just an impersonal "Higher Power" who is uninterested, or unaware, of
the life of each individual human. Other religions tend to give God human
qualities and teach that He is present in His creation, by being incarnate
in someone, something - or even everything. In Islam, however, Almighty God
has clarified the truth by letting mankind know that He is "Compassionate",
"Merciful", "Loving" and the "Answerer of Prayers". But He as also emphasized
strongly that "there is nothing like unto Him", and that He is high above
time, space and His creation. Finally, it should be mentioned that the God
that Muslims worship is the same God that Jews and Christians worship - because
there is only one God. It is unfortunate that some people mistakenly believe
that Muslims worship a different God than Jews and Christians, and that
"Allah" is just the "god of the Arabs". This myth, which has been propagated
by the enemies of Islam, is completely false since the word "Allah" is simply
the Arabic name for Almighty God. It is the same word for God which is used
by Arabic-speaking Jews and Christians. However, it should be clarified that
even though Muslims worship the same God as Jews and Christian, their concept
of Him differs somewhat from the beliefs of other religions - mainly because
it is based completely on Divine Revelation from God. For example, Muslims
reject the Christian belief that God is a Trinity, not only because the Qur'an
rejects it, but also because if this was God's true nature, He would have
clearly revealed it to Abraham, Noah, Jesus and all of the other prophets. [Top]
The Qur'an
The Arabic world "Al-Qur'an" literally
means "the recitation." When used in regards to Islam, the word Qur'an means
God's final message to mankind that was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad.
The Qu'ran, sometimes spelled Koran, is the literal the word of God - as it
clearly says time and time again. Unlike other sacred scriptures, the Qur'an
has been perfectly preserved in both its words and meaning in a living language.
The Qu'ran is a living miracle in the Arabic language; and is know to be
inimitable in its style, form and spiritual impact. God's final revelation
to mankind, the Qur'an, was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad over a period
of 23 years. The Qur'an, in contrast to many other religious books, was always
thought to be the Word of God by those who believed in it, i.e. it wasn't
something decreed by a religious council many years after being written. Also,
the Qu'ran was recited publicly in front of both the Muslim and non-Muslim
communities during the life of the Prophet Muhammad. The entire Qur'an was
also completely written down in lifetime of the Prophet, and numerous companions
of the Prophet memorized the entire Qur'an word-for-word as it was revealed.
So unlike other scriptures, the Qur'an was always in the hands of the common
believers, it was always thought to be God's word and, due to wide-spread
memorization, it was perfectly preserved. In regards to the teachings of the
Qur'an - it is a universal scripture, and it is addressed to all of mankind,
and not to a particular tribe or "chosen people". The message that it brings
is nothing new, but the same message of all of the prophets - submit to Almighty
God and worship Him alone. As such, God's revelation in the Qur'an focuses
on teaching human beings the importance of believing in the Unity of God and
framing their lives around the guidance which He has sent. Additionally,
the Qur'an contains the stories of the previous prophets, such as Abraham,
Noah, Moses and Jesus; as well as many commands and prohibitions from God.
In modern times in which so many people are caught up in doubt, spiritual
despair and "political correctness," the Qur'anic teachings offer solutions
to the emptiness of our lives and the turmoil that is gripping the world
today. In short, the Qur'an is the book of guidance par excellence. [Top]
The Prophet Muhammad
Unlike the founders of many religious,
the final prophet of Islam is a real documented and historical figure. He
lived in the full light of history, and the most minute details of his life
are known. Not only do Muslims have the complete text of God's words that
were revealed to Muhammad, but they have also preserved his saying and teachings
in what is called "hadith" literature. This having been said, it should be
understood that Muslims believe that the Prophet Muhammad was only a man chosen
by God, and that he is not divine in any way. In order to avoid the misguided
wish to deify him, the Prophet Muhammad taught Muslims to refer to him as
"God's Messenger and His Slave." The mission of the last and final prophet
of God was to simply teach that "there is nothing divine or worthy of being
worshipped except for Almighty God", as well as being a living example of
God's revelation. In simple terms, God sent the revelation to Muhammad,
who in turn taught it, preached it, lived it and put it into practice.
In this way, Muhammad was more that just a "prophet" in the sense of many
of the "Biblical prophets," since he was also a statesman and ruler. He was
a man who lived a humble life in the service of God, and established an
all-encompassing religion and way of life by showing what it means to be
an ideal friend, husband, teacher, ruler, warrior and judge. For this reason,
Muslims follow him not for his own sake, but in obedience to God, because
Muhammad not only showed us how to deal with our fellow human beings, but
more importantly, he showed us how to relate to and worship God, worship
Him in the only way pleasing to Him. Like other prophets, Muhammad faced
a great deal of opposition and persecution during his mission. However,
he was always patient and just, and he treated his enemies well. The results
of his mission were very successful, and even though his mission started
in one of the most backward and remotes places on earth, within a hundred
years of the death of Muhammad, Islam had spread from Spain to China. The
Prophet Muhammad was the greatest of all of God's prophets, not because he
had new doctrines or greater miracles, but because the results of his mission
have brought more human beings into the pure and proper belief in the One True
God than any other prophet. [Top]
The Islamic Way of Life
In the Holy Qur'an, God teaches
human beings that they were created in order to worship Him, and that the
basis of all true worship is God-consciousness. Since the teachings of Islamic
encompass all aspects of life and ethics, God-consciousness is encouraged
in all human affairs. Islam makes it clear that all human acts are acts of
worship if they are done for God alone and in accordance to His Divine Law.
As such, worship in Islam is not limited to religious rituals. The teachings
of Islam act as a mercy and a healing for the human soul, and such qualities
as humility, sincerity, patience and charity are strongly encouraged. Additionally,
Islam condemns pride and self-righteousness, since Almighty God is the only
judge of human righteousness. The Islamic view of the nature of man is also
realistic and well-balanced. Human beings are not believed to be inherently
sinful, but are seen as equally capable of both good andevil. Islam also teaches
that faith and action go hand-in-hand. God has given people free-will, and
the measure of one's faith is one's deeds and actions. However, human beings
have also been created weak and regularly fall into sin. This is the nature
of the human being as created by God in His Wisdom, and it is not inherently
"corrupt" or in need of repair. This is because the avenue of repentance
of always open to all human beings, and Almighty God loves the repentant
sinner more than one who does not sin at all. The true balance of an Islamic
life is established by having a healthy fear of God as well as a sincere
belief in His infinite Mercy. A life without fear of God leads to sin and
disobedience, while believing that we have sinned so much that God will not
possibly forgive us only leads to despair. In light of this, Islam teaches
that: only the misguided despair of the Mercy of their Lord. Additionally,
the Holy Qur'an, which was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad, contains a great
deal of teachings about the life hereafter and the Day of Judgment. Due to
this, Muslims believe that all human beings will ultimately be judged by
God for their beliefs and actions in their earthly lives. In judging human
beings, Almighty God will be both Merciful and Just, and people will only
be judged for what they were capable of. Suffice it to say that Islam teaches
that life is a test, and that all human beings will be accountable before
God. A sincere belief in the life hereafter is key to leading a well-balanced
life and moral. Otherwise, life is viewed as an end in itself, which causes
human beings to become more selfish, materialistic and immoral. [Top]
Islam for a Better Life
Islam teaches that true happiness
can only being obtained by living a life full of God-consciousness and being
satisfied with what God has given us. Additionally, true "freedom" is freedom
from being controlled by our base human desires and being ruled by man-made
ideologies. This stands in stark contrast to the view of many people in the
"modern world," who consider "freedom" to be the ability to satisfy all of their
desires without inhibition. The clear and comprehensive guidance of Islam
gives human-beings a well-defined purpose and direction in life. In addition
to being members of the human-brotherhood of Islam, its well-balanced and
practical teachings are a source of spiritual comfort, guidance and morality.
A direct and clear relationship with Almighty God, as well as the sense
of purpose and belonging that ones feels as a Muslim, frees a person from
the many worries of everyday life. In short, the Islamic way of life is
pure and wholesome. It builds self-discipline and self-control thought regular
prayer and fasting, and frees human-beings from superstition and all sorts
of racial, ethnic and national prejudices. By accepting to live a God-conscious
life, and realizing that the only thing that distinguishes people in the
sight of God is their consciousness of Him, a person's true human dignity
is realized. [Top]
Jesus In Islam
Muslims respect and revere Jesus
(peace be upon him), and await his second coming. They consider him one of
the greatest of God’s messengers to mankind. A Muslim never refers to him
simply as "Jesus," but always adds the phrase "peace be upon him" [Arabic:
'alayhi salaam]. The Qur’an confirms his virgin birth (a chapter
of the Qur’an is entitled "Mary") in her time, and Mary is considered the
purest woman in all creation. The Qur’an describes the creation of Jesus
as follows (interpretation of the meaning): "Behold! the Angel said, 'God
has chosen you, and purified you, and chosen you above the women of all nations.
O Mary, God gives you glad tidings of a word from Him, whose name shall be
the Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, honored in this world and the Hereafter,
and one that shall speak to the people from his cradle and in maturity, and
shall be of the righteous.' She said: 'O my Lord! How shall I have a son
when no man has touched me?' He said: 'Even so; God creates what He wills.
When He decrees a thing, He but says to it, "Be!" and it is.'" (Qur’an,
Surat (chapter) Aala ‘Imraan, 3:42-7) Jesus (peace be upon him) was born
miraculously through the same power which had brought Adam (peace be upon
him) into being without a father: "Truly, the likeness of Jesus unto God
is as the likeness of Adam. He created him of dust, and then said to him,
'Be!' and he was.'" (3:59) During his prophetic mission, Jesus (peace
be upon him) was granted and performed many miracles. The Qur’an tells us
that he said (interpretation of meaning): "I have come to you with a sign
from your Lord: I make for you out of the clay, as it were, the figure of
a bird, and breathe into it and it becomes a bird by God’s leave. And I heal
the blind and the lepers, and I raise the dead by God’s leave." (3:49)
Other miracles include speaking soon after birth in defense of his mother's
piety. God's other gifts to him included healing the blind and the sick,
reviving the dead, and, most importantly, the message he was carrying. These
miracles were granted to him by God to establish him as a prophet. According
to the Qur’an, he was not crucified, but only appeared so; instead, God raised
him unto Heaven. (Qur'an, Chapter Maryam) Neither Muhammad (peace be upon
him), nor Jesus (peace be upon him), came to change the basic doctrine of
the belief in one God, brought by earlier prophets, but to confirm and renew
it. In the Qur'an Jesus (peace be upon him), is reported as saying that he
came: " To attest the law which was before me. And to make lawful to you
part of what was forbidden you; I have come to you with a sign form your
Lord, so fear God and obey me." (3:50) [Top]
