Story of "Triple Filter Test"

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ
Bismi-llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm
"In the name of Godthe Most Graciousthe Most Merciful."


  • Rasul Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “Keep away from ill-thinking/suspicions because ill-thinking is the greatest falsehood.” [Sahih Bukhari]
     
    During the Abbasid period one of the scholars in Baghdad was greeted by an acquaintance who said, "Do you know what I just heard about your friend?"
     
    Scholar: "Hold on a minute, before telling me anything I'd like you to pass a little test. It's called the Triple Filter Test."

    The Man: "Triple Filter Test?"

    Scholar: "That's right, before you talk to me about my friend it might be a good idea to take a moment and filter what you're going to say. That's why I call it the triple filter test. The first filter is Truth. Have you made absolutely sure that what you are about to tell me is true?"

    The Man: "No, actually I just heard about it and ..."

    Scholar: "All right, so you don't really know if it's true or not. Now let's try the second filter, the filter of Goodness. Is what you are about to tell me about my friend something good?"

    The Man: "No, on the contrary..."

    Scholar: "So, you want to tell me something bad about him, but you're not certain it's true. You may still pass the test though, because there's one filter left: The filter of Usefulness. Is what you want to tell me about my friend going to be useful to me?"

    The Man: "No, not really."

    Scholar: "Well, if what you want to tell me is neither true nor good nor even useful, why tell it to me at all?"
     
    Allah (subhana wa ta’ala) asks us: "O you who believe! Avoid much suspicion, indeed some suspicions are sins. And spy not, neither backbite one another. Would one of you like to eat the flesh (meat) of his dead brother? You would hate it (so hate backbiting). And fear Allah. Verily, Allah is the One Who accepts repentance, the Most Merciful." [Quran 49:12]

    Let's pass our intended speech through the triple filter test before we madly utter our every thought. And lets subject others to the triple filter test too before we hear any number of damaging things from them.

    Home remedies for flu. Less medicine - stronger immune system.

    بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ
    Bismi-llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm
    "In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful."
    Home remedies for flu. Less medicine - stronger immune system.


    http://muslimsistersoftheummah.blogspot.com/2015/01/who-was-jesus-christ-son-of-saint-mary.html



     UNDERSTANDING THE REASON OF SICKNESS

    The first step to treat the flu is to find the reason it attacked you. In most cases finding the reason and taking appropriate actions will immediately give you a relieve. Typically the body gets sick when:

    1. It's been overwhelmed by daily activities.  
    In this case do not force yourself to work, cause this might lead to more severe sickness. Remember, if you loose money, you can always make them back. But if you loose health, you will never get it back.

    2. You had a fight with someone. Got hurt by words or actions. 
    The best solution in this situation is to ask for forgiveness, even if you were right. If you can not find power in yourself to do that, then pray and ask God The Exalted to forgive you and help you solve the problem. 

    3. There is something that bothers you but you can't tell anyone. 
    By keeping this secret inside your health condition might get worse. Do not talk to human, instead talk to God The Exalted. But make sure no one is around you to hear. 

    4. There is an unsolved problem. 
    God The Exalted provided solutions to all problems in The Holy Quran. Just read it and you will find the way.

    5. You have money issue. 
    In this case always remember lives of the Prophet Mohammad (saws) and sahabas (ram). Those were the most pious people on the face of the Earth but Allah (SWT) tested them with poorness and hardships to give them better place in Jannah (Paradise). Try to look at other people around you, who have even less than you and thank Almighty Allah for everything else you have.

    6. You are forced to do something you do not want to. 
    You have a right to like or not like something. If someone forces you to do something against your will, tell him/her straight that this does not make you happy. If for some reason you can not do that, then turn to Allah (SWT) and ask HIM to solve the problem. Verily God The Exalted is The Best Solver.
     
    7. Lack of love or attention. 
    It will be better for you to honestly tell your family about your feelings. And remember, the one who gives love receives it back.

    There are million other reasons why your body might get sick. It depends on each individual. However, there is always a way to find it. If you feel like you have no clue what is wrong with you, stand on the prayer rug, put your head to sajdah (prostration) and open your heart to God The Exalted. Only by looking inside your soul you will be able to find the answer. In some cases you are afraid to admit the truth because it is shameful or judged by the society. But you do not have to hide it from Almighty Allah, because HE is All-Hearing and All-Knowing. God the Exalted knows what you reveal and what you hide in your heart.
    After you find the reason for your sickness look for solution to it in The Holy Quran. Allah The Greatest provided solutions to any problem in this life and here after for us in this amazing book.

    WARNING! 
    If you have specific medical conditions or under medication, check online or ask your doctor, if it is safe for you before proceeding to any further steps!

    FEVER

    1. Stay Hydrated
    First think to remember when you have fever is to drink lots of fluid. Weather it's warm tea, juice, water or something else. I would not recommend soda, because all sodas contain chemicals which might have stronger effect on your body while your immune system is low.

    Remember!
    Do not drink anything hot, it might increase your temperature. 
    Very cold drinks might give you sore throat.



    2. Undress Yourself
    Take off all clothes. You can leave underwear. Do not cover your body with any blankets even if you feel like it. It will increase your body temperature. High fever for a long time is very dangerous. If the fewer is mild and you shivering without clothes then use a bed sheet to cover but nothing thick and heavy.

    Remember!
    Never cover yourself while having high fever.
    Take off all clothes.

    3. Cool Down
    Make flat sheet wet with cold water and cover your whole body until the sheet becomes warm. Then rinse it again with cold water and repeat several times until you feel relieved.

    http://muslimsistersoftheummah.blogspot.com/2015/01/who-was-jesus-christ-son-of-saint-mary.html




    4. Lower Body Temperature
    If you can not bear the feeling of your whole body feeling cold then make wet a piece of cloth with cold water and constantly rub: head temples, neck, both elbow pits (antecubital space), arm pits, knee pits, and feet. 

    5. Use Herbs
    This herbal balsam with menthol is excellent fever reliever. Rub it all over your body for fast results. It helps to cool down and sleep. You can get it HERE.

    http://muslimsistersoftheummah.blogspot.com/2015/01/who-was-jesus-christ-son-of-saint-mary.html

    6. Fan
    Turn on fan and lay down close by. It will help your body to cool down.

    http://muslimsistersoftheummah.blogspot.com/2015/01/who-was-jesus-christ-son-of-saint-mary.html

    Remember!
    Never perform any warming procedures (like drinking hot tea, breathing with steam, using sauna etc) while you have high fever.

    Fever is body's natural reaction to any bacteria inside. Regular flu bacterias die while you have fever. So you have to let your body at least 1-2 days to fight the bacteria inside. However having high fever for a long time might cause severe damage to the body. If after you tried all home remedies to drop you body temperature down but it did not work, you have to immediately see a doctor for additional check up of your health condition.




    STUFFY NOSE

    1. Breath With Moist Air
    The best way to clear stuffy nose is to breath in moist air.  There are several ways to do it at home.

    Remember!
    Do not perform this actions while you have fever.

    BOILED WATER
    Use old cooking pot or any other metallic container. Make sure the handles are plastic, because you might burn yourself if they are metallic. Boil water in it. Add vicks - it's good if you have liquid one or you can use cotton stick to mix some of the vicks vaporub into the water. You can also use any other cream or liquid that contains menthol. Put your face over the pot and cover your head with a towel, so there is no space for a fresh air to come in. Continue breath in the steam for 10-15 minutes. 

    Tips: Have dry clothes ready, change the clothes right after you finish the procedure. 
    Have napkins near by to clean nose.

    http://muslimsistersoftheummah.blogspot.com/2015/01/who-was-jesus-christ-son-of-saint-mary.html

    BOILED POTATO
    Boil whole potato. Break it to pieces after it is cooked. Put yourself over the pot and cover head with towel. Breath in slowly the steam for 10-15 minutes.

    Tips: Have dry clothes ready, change the clothes right after you finish the procedure. 
    Have napkins near by to clean nose.
    Do not eat the potato afterwards.
    Use pot with plastic handles not to burn yourself.




    HUMIDIFIER
    You can purchase a humidifier in any local pharmacy. I would not recommend to throw a towel over your head while breathing with it's steam. Usually humidifiers produce strong steam that might cause skin burning. However, you can stand near it and breath with the steam on a safe distance. Add some vicks vaposteam or similar medication with menthol into humidifier for better result.


    http://muslimsistersoftheummah.blogspot.com/2015/01/who-was-jesus-christ-son-of-saint-mary.html

    STEAM INHALER
    Steam inhaler can be purchase at local pharmacy. It is the easiest way of breathing with moist air. Add couple drops of vicks vaposteam or similar medication inside and keep breathing with steam for about 10-15 minutes. Don't forget to blow your nose as soon as it starts running.

    http://muslimsistersoftheummah.blogspot.com/2015/01/who-was-jesus-christ-son-of-saint-mary.html

    BREATHING WITH MOIST AIR FOR INFANTS AND TODDLERS
    To help your baby with a stuffy nose use bathroom. Open hot water in the shower. Close bathroom door. Use towel to close the space under the bathroom door. Come back after about 15 minutes. There will be steam in the bathroom. Hold infant on your arms and let him/her breath with the steam. The sign that the room is warm enough is when you see your baby's nose running.

    Remember!
    Make sure the room is not overheated for infant. You should be able to see everything in the room clearly. 
    Never put your child under hot water.
    Never keep your child close to hot shower.
    Never stand with an infant inside shower room with hot water running.
    Never perform this procedure, if your child has fever.

    2. Clean Nasal Passages
    Wash nasal passages with water. This will help you to get rid of bad fluids that are deep inside. 

    USE REGULAR WATER
    Make sure the water is warm. It should not be hot neither cold. Fill your hand with water. Close one nostril and "drink" the water with the opened nostril. Then blow your nose. Repeat several times until you feel light burning in the forehead. Then continue with another nostril. 
    Another way to insert water inside nostril is to use neti pot, syringe bulb, or any plastic bottle with pointed tip.

    http://muslimsistersoftheummah.blogspot.com/2015/01/who-was-jesus-christ-son-of-saint-mary.html

    SALINE DROPS
    Use saline drops several times a day to thin the mucus in your nasal passages, which decreases the inflammation of your blood vessels and helps empty fluids. If you don't have saline drops at home, you can use regular water and salt. Mix quarter of tea spoon salt into one glass of warm water. Mix well. Use syringe bulb to insert couple drops into nostrils. 

    http://muslimsistersoftheummah.blogspot.com/2015/01/who-was-jesus-christ-son-of-saint-mary.html

    3. Pressure Points
    Massaging pressure points on the face will help to relieve stuffy nose. Follow yellow dots on the picture to find these points. Make at least 10 circular massaging movements with your finger tips on each pressure point in both directions.

    http://muslimsistersoftheummah.blogspot.com/2015/01/who-was-jesus-christ-son-of-saint-mary.html

    4. Nasal Ointment 
    If you feel like the previous steps are not enough, you can rub nasal ointment inside nostrils. There are many over the counter nasal ointments. However, if you happen to have vicks vaporub or any other essential oil with menthol at home, it will work. 
    http://muslimsistersoftheummah.blogspot.com/2015/01/who-was-jesus-christ-son-of-saint-mary.html 

    3. Drink Hot Spicy Tea 
    Hot spicy tea helps to open stuffy nose. Add into green or black tea these ingredients: mint, ginger, cinnamon, lemon juice, honey, black pepper. Or you can use lesser ingredients - whatever you find at home. Spicier the tea is faster it will help to open stuffy nose.

    Remember!
    When your nose starts running immediately blow it.  
    If you are not used to hot spices, use them less for the first time.
    Do not give hot spicy tea to children.

    2. Gargle Salty Water 
    Dissolve 2-3 teaspoons of salt in a glass of warm water. This method temporarily relieves a sore or scratchy throat. Children younger than 6 years are unlikely to be able to gargle properly. Gargle salty water 2-3 or more times a day to kill the bacteria in the throat.

    BOOST YOUR IMMUNITY


    Immune system is bodies' natural protection against flu and other sicknesses. If the immune system is strong, it will help the body to get rid of the virus. Vitamin C helps to boost immune system. Multi vitamins supplements are very important to take when you are not ill but more important when you got flu.

    1) Vitamin C
    Citrus fruits like lemons, oranges, and tangerines have natural vitamin C. Eat them a lot when you feel ill.


    2) Vitamins C, E, A 
    Vitamins C, E, A in a large amount give a powerful boost to immune system. When you just start sneezing or feel week take 10 vitamins at once. Repeat for 2-3 days. It will stop the flu from spreading. You can get a good amount of vitamins in 1 capsule at this link: http://aisha.usasib.com/Antioxidant_Protection
    But be careful it is gelatin capsule, so open the capsule and eat the vitamins. Do not consume the capsule, because it is not confirmed weather it's halal gelatin or not. The vitamins have tasty sour taste.

    http://aisha.usasib.com/Antioxidant_Protection 

    3) Multi-Vitamins
    When buying vitamins pay attention on 2 things: 1) amount of the vitamin per capsule written on "product ingredients" label.  2) If the capsule does not contain gelatin. Gelatin is usually made of pig fat and is haram. It must say that the vitamins are "kosher", "halal", or "vegetarian". You can find affordable halal multi-vitamins on this website: http://www.swansonvitamins.com/kosher?kw=multi+vitamins&sort=offerprice



    STAY HEALTHY MY DEAR FRIENDS!

    Why do we need Islam? Why choose a religion?

    Iبِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْم
    Bismi-llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm
    "In the name of Godthe Most Graciousthe Most Merciful."

    Why do we need Islam? Why choose a religion?


    In this life for anything to work there must be a specific structure. For example, if you want your business to run there must be rules, boss, manager, employees, set working time, paperwork and so on. Otherwise the business will fail.
    If there wouldn't be traffic laws and regulations, many people would die every day.
    In order for school to operate it needs to have teachers, students, class rooms, set lesson time etc...
    So equally for us as human beings there must be a structure, so our lives would "work". If you wake up every day, wash your body, feed it, and go to work - you are wasting your time on something which is temporary. Every body will die one day. But if you maintain your prayers, give charity, ask God the Exalted for forgiveness - these are the actions that will clean your soul and remain with you forever because the soul is eternal. 
    More logical and smarter way is to take care of your soul first before your body. And surely you have to keep yourself clean, eat healthy, and have proper sleeping schedule to prevent some sicknesses. However, all our major problems are coming from inside. If our soul suffers, the body gets sick. If we are angry, the body gets pain. If we are missing someone, the body is weak. If we feel lack of love in life, the body gets destroyed and dies. These are the examples of real people in this life not just a theory. 
    That is why God the Exalted says that every human being needs HIM. We need to have a specific way of living - the religion. And if we will start creating a "perfect life structure" ourselves like many psychologists are trying to do nowadays, we will fail. Its very common nowadays to visit psychologist therapy sessions. What are we doing there? Looking for solutions to life's problems. Weather it's a complicated relationship, bills, stress, family issues, sickness, depression or something else. But ask yourself: "Do you really get answers from those sessions?" Besides that you just talk out your problem to someone and feel kind of "relieved". In the reality no problem will be solved with the advice of another human being. Because no human have the knowledge that God the Exalted possesses. We don't know the past and the future, we don't know what is hidden in other people's hearts. We don't have the life experience of centuries. Our body desires make us weak. Our mood changes from day to day. So it doesn't matter how hard we try, there will always be something that won't benefit properly or even harm us. God The Exalted has already prepared for us solutions to any problem in this life and hereafter. HE (GAE) provided them in the Holy Quran and it is absolutely free for everyone. If you want to find answers to your life situation, you just need to open Quran and you will see yourself on one of the pages.
    The way of living that God the Exalted created for us is perfect. There is no unanswered questions and there is a benefit in each and every action.

    SO WHERE DO WE START?

    We start with our iman. Iman (faith) is the base in our religion, strength in our lives, and salvation in hereafter.

    HADITH

    It was narrated on the authority of Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: 

    While we were one day sitting with the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), there appeared before us a man dressed in extremely white clothes and with very black hair. No traces of journeying were visible on him, and none of us knew him. He sat down close by the Prophet (peace be upon him), rested his knee against his thighs, and said, "O Muhammad! Inform me about Islam."
    The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said, "Islam is that you should testify that there is no deity except Allah and that Muhammad is His Messenger, that you should perform salah (prayer), pay the Zakah (charity), fast during Ramadan, and perform Hajj to the House, if you are able to do so."
    The man said, "You have spoken truly." We were astonished at his questioning him (the Messenger) and telling him that he was right, but he went on to say, "Inform me about iman."
    He (the Messenger of Allah) answered, "It is that you believe in Allah and His angels and His Books and His Messengers and in the Last Day, and in qadar (fate), both in its good and in its evil aspects." He said, "You have spoken truly."
    Then he (the man) said, "Inform me about Ihsan." He (the Messenger of Allah) answered, "It is that you should serve Allah as though you could see Him, for though you cannot see Him yet (know that) He sees you."

    He said, "Inform me about the Hour." He (the Messenger of Allah) said, "About that, the one questioned knows no more than the questioner." So he said, "Well, inform me about the signs thereof." He said, "They are that the slave-girl will give birth to her mistress, that you will see the barefooted, naked, destitute, the herdsmen of the sheep (competing with each other) in raising lofty buildings." Thereupon the man went of.
    I waited a while, and then he (the Messenger of Allah) said, "O Umar, do you know who that questioner was?" I replied, "Allah and His Messenger know better." He said, "That was Jibril (the Angel Gabriel). He came to teach you your religion.

    Who was Jesus Christ son of Saint Mary (Messia, Isa)?


    بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْم
    Bismi-llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm
    "In the name of Godthe Most Graciousthe Most Merciful."

    Who was Jesus Christ son of Saint Mary (Messia, Isa)?





    HOW JESUS (PBUH) WAS BORN?

    [And mention] when the angels said, "O Mary, indeed Allah gives you good tidings of a word from Him, whose name will be the Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary - distinguished in this world and the Hereafter and among those brought near [to Allah].
    He will speak to the people in the cradle and in maturity and will be of the righteous."
    She said, "My Lord, how will I have a child when no man has touched me?" [The angel] said, "Such is Allah ; He creates what He wills. When He decrees a matter, He only says to it, 'Be,' and it is.
    And He will teach him writing and wisdom and the Torah and the Gospel
    And [make him] a messenger to the Children of Israel, [who will say], 'Indeed I have come to you with a sign from your Lord in that I design for you from clay [that which is] like the form of a bird, then I breathe into it and it becomes a bird by permission of Allah . And I cure the blind and the leper, and I give life to the dead - by permission of Allah . And I inform you of what you eat and what you store in your houses. Indeed in that is a sign for you, if you are believers.
    And [I have come] confirming what was before me of the Torah and to make lawful for you some of what was forbidden to you. And I have come to you with a sign from your Lord, so fear Allah and obey me.
    Indeed, Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. That is the straight path."
    But when Jesus felt [persistence in] disbelief from them, he said, "Who are my supporters for [the cause of] Allah ?" The disciples said," We are supporters for Allah . We have believed in Allah and testify that we are Muslims [submitting to Him].
    Our Lord, we have believed in what You revealed and have followed the messenger Jesus, so register us among the witnesses [to truth]."
    And the disbelievers planned, but Allah planned. And Allah is the best of planners.
    (Surat Ali-Imran, 3:45-54)

    And (remember) she who guarded her chastity [Virgin Maryam (Mary)], We breathed into (the sleeves of) her (shirt or garment) [through Our Ruh - Jibrael (Gabriel)], and We made her and her son ['Iesa (Jesus)] a sign for Al-'Alamin (the mankind and jinns).  
    (Surat Al-Anbya, 21:91)

    IF JESUS WAS GOD (OR SON OF GOD) THEN WHO WAS ADAM (PBUT)?

    [Allah is] Originator of the heavens and the earth. How could He have a son when He does not have a companion (wife) and He created all things? And He is, of all things, Knowing.
    (Surat, Al-Anam, 6:101)

    They have certainly disbelieved who say that Allah is Christ, the son of Mary. Say, "Then who could prevent Allah at all if He had intended to destroy Christ, the son of Mary, or his mother or everyone on the earth?" And to Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them. He creates what He wills, and Allah is over all things competent.
    (Surat, Al-Maidah, 5:17)

    Indeed, the example of Jesus to Allah is like that of Adam. He created Him from dust; then He said to him, "Be," and he was.
    The truth is from your Lord, so do not be among the doubters.
    Then whoever argues with you about it after [this] knowledge has come to you - say, "Come, let us call our sons and your sons, our women and your women, ourselves and yourselves, then supplicate earnestly [together] and invoke the curse of Allah upon the liars [among us]."
    Indeed, this is the true narration [about the story of 'Iesa (Jesus)]. And there is no deity except Allah . And indeed, Allah is the Exalted in Might, the Wise. 
    (Surat Ali-Imran, 3:59-62)

    O People of the Scripture, do not commit excess in your religion or say about Allah except the truth. The Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, was but a messenger of Allah and His word which He directed to Mary and a soul [created at a command] from Him. So believe in Allah and His messengers. And do not say, "Three"; desist - it is better for you. Indeed, Allah is but one God. Exalted is He above having a son. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. And sufficient is Allah as Disposer of affairs.
    Never would the Messiah disdain to be a servant of Allah , nor would the angels near [to Him]. And whoever disdains His worship and is arrogant - He will gather them to Himself all together.
    And as for those who believed and did righteous deeds, He will give them in full their rewards and grant them extra from His bounty. But as for those who disdained and were arrogant, He will punish them with a painful punishment, and they will not find for themselves besides Allah any protector or helper.
    (Surat An-Nisa, 4:171-173)   

    They have certainly disbelieved who say, " Allah is the Messiah, the son of Mary" while the Messiah has said, "O Children of Israel, worship Allah , my Lord and your Lord." Indeed, he who associates others with Allah - Allah has forbidden him Paradise, and his refuge is the Fire. And there are not for the wrongdoers any helpers.
    They have certainly disbelieved who say, " Allah is the third of three." And there is no god except one God. And if they do not desist from what they are saying, there will surely afflict the disbelievers among them a painful punishment.
    (Surat Al-Maidah, 5:72-73)   

    The Messiah, son of Mary, was not but a messenger; [other] messengers have passed on before him. And his mother was a supporter of truth. They both used to eat food. Look how We make clear to them the signs; then look how they are deluded.
    (Surat Al-Maidah, 5-75)  

    And [beware the Day] when Allah will say, "O Jesus, Son of Mary, did you say to the people, 'Take me and my mother as deities besides Allah ?'" He will say, "Exalted are You! It was not for me to say that to which I have no right. If I had said it, You would have known it. You know what is within myself, and I do not know what is within Yourself. Indeed, it is You who is Knower of the unseen.
    I said not to them except what You commanded me - to worship Allah , my Lord and your Lord. And I was a witness over them as long as I was among them; but when You took me up, You were the Observer over them, and You are, over all things, Witness.
    (Surat Al-Maidah, 5:116-117)   

    And they say, "The Most Merciful has taken a son." Exalted is He! Rather, they are [but] honored servants.
    (Surat Al-Anbya, 21:26)

    Jesus was not but a servant upon whom We bestowed favor, and We made him an example for the Children of Israel.
    (Surat Az-Zukhruf, 43:59)

    WHAT ALLAH (SWT) TOLD JESUS (PBUH)?

    [Mention] when Allah said, "O Jesus, indeed I will take you and raise you to Myself and purify you from those who disbelieve and make those who follow you [in submission to Allah alone] superior to those who disbelieve until the Day of Resurrection. Then to Me is your return, and I will judge between you concerning that in which you used to differ.
    And as for those who disbelieved, I will punish them with a severe punishment in this world and the Hereafter, and they will have no helpers."
    But as for those who believed and did righteous deeds, He will give them in full their rewards, and Allah does not like the wrongdoers.
    (Surat Ali-Imran, 3:55-57)

    And We did certainly give Moses the Torah and followed up after him with messengers. And We gave Jesus, the son of Mary, clear proofs and supported him with the Pure Spirit. But is it [not] that every time a messenger came to you, [O Children of Israel], with what your souls did not desire, you were arrogant? And a party [of messengers] you denied and another party you killed.
    (Surat Al-Baqarah, 2:87)

    These are the verses of Allah which We recite to you, [O Muhammad], in truth. And indeed, you are from among the messengers.
    Those messengers - some of them We caused to exceed others. Among them were those to whom Allah spoke, and He raised some of them in degree. And We gave Jesus, the Son of Mary, clear proofs, and We supported him with the Pure Spirit. If Allah had willed, those [generations] succeeding them would not have fought each other after the clear proofs had come to them. But they differed, and some of them believed and some of them disbelieved. And if Allah had willed, they would not have fought each other, but Allah does what He intends.
    (Surat Al-Baqarah, 2:252-253)

    He has sent down upon you, [O Muhammad], the Book in truth, confirming what was before it. And He revealed the Torah (to Moses) and the Gospel (to Jesus).
    (Surat Ali-Imran, 3:3)

    WAS JESUS (PBUH) CRUCIFIED?

    And [for] their saying, "Indeed, we have killed the Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, the messenger of Allah ." And they did not kill him, nor did they crucify him; but [another] was made to resemble him to them. And indeed, those who differ over it are in doubt about it. They have no knowledge of it except the following of assumption. And they did not kill him, for certain.
    Rather, Allah raised him to Himself. And ever is Allah Exalted in Might and Wise.
    (Surat An-Nisa, 4:157-158)  

    And indeed, Jesus will be [a sign for] knowledge of the Hour [in the coming of Jesus the son of Mary there is an indication of the coming of the Hour], so be not in doubt of it, and follow Me. This is a straight path.
    (Surat Az-Zukhruf, 43:61)

    MIRACLES OF JESUS (PBUH) 

    [The Day] when Allah will say, "O Jesus, Son of Mary, remember My favor upon you and upon your mother when I supported you with the Pure Spirit and you spoke to the people in the cradle and in maturity; and [remember] when I taught you writing and wisdom and the Torah and the Gospel; and when you designed from clay [what was] like the form of a bird with My permission, then you breathed into it, and it became a bird with My permission; and you healed the blind and the leper with My permission; and when you brought forth the dead with My permission; and when I restrained the Children of Israel from [killing] you when you came to them with clear proofs and those who disbelieved among them said, "This is not but obvious magic."
    And [remember] when I inspired to the disciples, "Believe in Me and in My messenger Jesus." They said, "We have believed, so bear witness that indeed we are Muslims [in submission to Allah ]."
    [And remember] when the disciples said, "O Jesus, Son of Mary, can your Lord send down to us a table [spread with food] from the heaven? [Jesus] said," Fear Allah , if you should be believers."
    They said, "We wish to eat from it and let our hearts be reassured and know that you have been truthful to us and be among its witnesses."
    Said Jesus, the son of Mary, "O Allah , our Lord, send down to us a table [spread with food] from the heaven to be for us a festival for the first of us and the last of us and a sign from You. And provide for us, and You are the best of providers."
    Allah said, "Indeed, I will sent it down to you, but whoever disbelieves afterwards from among you - then indeed will I punish him with a punishment by which I have not punished anyone among the worlds."
    (Surat Al-Maidah, 5:110-115)      

    And when Jesus brought clear proofs, he said, "I have come to you with wisdom and to make clear to you some of that over which you differ, so fear Allah and obey me.
    Indeed, Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. This is a straight path."
    (Surat Az-Zukhruf, 43:63-64)  

    And [mention] when Jesus, the son of Mary, said, "O children of Israel, indeed I am the messenger of Allah to you confirming what came before me of the Torah and bringing good tidings of a messenger to come after me, whose name is Ahmad." But when he came to them with clear evidences, they said, "This is obvious magic."
    (Surat As-Saf, 61:6)  

    TO WHOM THE KNOWLEDGE WAS REVEALED? 

    Say, [O believers], "We have believed in Allah and what has been revealed to us and what has been revealed to Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob and the Descendants and what was given to Moses and Jesus and what was given to the prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and we are Muslims [in submission] to Him."
    (Surat Al-Baqarah, 2:136)

    Indeed, We have revealed to you, [O Muhammad], as We revealed to Noah and the prophets after him. And we revealed to Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, the Descendants, Jesus, Job, Jonah, Aaron, and Solomon, and to David We gave the book [of Psalms].
    (Surat An-Nisa, 4:163)  

    And We sent, following in their footsteps, Jesus, the son of Mary, confirming that which came before him in the Torah; and We gave him the Gospel, in which was guidance and light and confirming that which preceded it of the Torah as guidance and instruction for the righteous.
    (Surat Al-Maidah, 5:46)  

    He has ordained for you of religion what He enjoined upon Noah and that which We have revealed to you, [O Muhammad], and what We enjoined upon Abraham and Moses and Jesus - to establish the religion and not be divided therein. Difficult for those who associate others with Allah is that to which you invite them. Allah chooses for Himself whom He wills and guides to Himself whoever turns back [to Him].
    (Surat Ash-Shuraa, 42:13)  

    Then We sent following their footsteps Our messengers and followed [them] with Jesus, the son of Mary, and gave him the Gospel. And We placed in the hearts of those who followed him compassion and mercy and monasticism, which they innovated; We did not prescribe it for them except [that they did so] seeking the approval of Allah . But they did not observe it with due observance. So We gave the ones who believed among them their reward, but many of them are defiantly disobedient.
    (Surat Al-Hadid, 57:27)  

    STORY OF SAINT MARY (PBUH)


    [Mention, O Muhammad], when the wife of 'Imran [mother of saint Mary pbuh] said, "My Lord, indeed I have pledged to You what is in my womb, consecrated [for Your service], so accept this from me. Indeed, You are the Hearing, the Knowing."
    But when she delivered her, she said, "My Lord, I have delivered a female." And Allah was most knowing of what she delivered, "And the male is not like the female. And I have named her Mary, and I seek refuge for her in You and [for] her descendants from Satan, the expelled [from the mercy of Allah ]."
    So her Lord accepted her with good acceptance and caused her to grow in a good manner and put her in the care of Zechariah. Every time Zechariah entered upon her in the prayer chamber, he found with her provision. He said, "O Mary, from where is this [coming] to you?" She said, "It is from Allah . Indeed, Allah provides for whom He wills without account."
    At that, Zechariah called upon his Lord, saying, "My Lord, grant me from Yourself a good offspring. Indeed, You are the Hearer of supplication."
    So the angels called him while he was standing in prayer in the chamber, "Indeed, Allah gives you good tidings of Yahya (John), confirming a word from Allah and [who will be] honorable, abstaining [from women], and a prophet from among the righteous."
    He said, "My Lord, how will I have a boy when I have reached old age and my wife is barren?" The angel said, "Such is Allah ; He does what He wills."
    He said, "My Lord, make for me a sign." He Said, "Your sign is that you will not [be able to] speak to the people for three days except by gesture. And remember your Lord much and exalt [Him with praise] in the evening and the morning."
    And [mention] when the angels said, "O Mary, indeed Allah has chosen you and purified you and chosen you above the women of the worlds.
    O Mary, be devoutly obedient to your Lord and prostrate and bow with those who bow [in prayer]."
    That is from the news of the unseen which We reveal to you, [O Muhammad]. And you were not with them when they cast their pens as to which of them should be responsible for Mary. Nor were you with them when they disputed.
    (Surat Ali-Imran, 3:35-44)

    And mention, [O Muhammad], in the Book [the story of] Mary, when she withdrew from her family to a place toward the east.
    And she took, in seclusion from them, a screen. Then We sent to her Our Angel, and he represented himself to her as a well-proportioned man.
    She said, "Indeed, I seek refuge in the Most Merciful from you, [so leave me], if you should be fearing of Allah ."
    He said, "I am only the messenger of your Lord to give you [news of] a pure boy."
    She said, "How can I have a boy while no man has touched me and I have not been unchaste?"
    He said, "Thus [it will be]; your Lord says, 'It is easy for Me, and We will make him a sign to the people and a mercy from Us. And it is a matter [already] decreed.' "
    So she conceived him, and she withdrew with him to a remote place.
    And the pains of childbirth drove her to the trunk of a palm tree. She said, "Oh, I wish I had died before this and was in oblivion, forgotten."
    But he called her from below her, "Do not grieve; your Lord has provided beneath you a stream.
    And shake toward you the trunk of the palm tree; it will drop upon you ripe, fresh dates.
    So eat and drink and be contented. And if you see from among humanity anyone, say, 'Indeed, I have vowed to the Most Merciful abstention, so I will not speak today to [any] man.' "
    Then she brought him to her people, carrying him. They said, "O Mary, you have certainly done a thing unprecedented.
    O sister of Aaron, your father was not a man of evil, nor was your mother unchaste."
    So she pointed to him. They said, "How can we speak to one who is in the cradle a child?"
    [Jesus] said, "Indeed, I am the servant of Allah . He has given me the Scripture and made me a prophet.
    And He has made me blessed wherever I am and has enjoined upon me prayer and zakah [charity] as long as I remain alive
    And [made me] dutiful to my mother, and He has not made me a wretched tyrant.
    And peace is on me the day I was born and the day I will die and the day I am raised alive."
    That is Jesus, the son of Mary - the word of truth about which they are in dispute.
    It is not [befitting] for Allah to take a son; exalted is He! When He decrees an affair, He only says to it, "Be," and it is.
    [Jesus said], "And indeed, Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. That is a straight path."
    (Surat Maryam, 19:16-36)

    And [the example of] Mary, the daughter of 'Imran, who guarded her chastity, so We blew into [her garment] through Our angel, and she believed in the words of her Lord and His scriptures and was of the devoutly obedient.
    (Surat At-Tahrim, 66:12)  

    HADITH

    Narated By 'Ubada (ra) : The Prophet (saw) said, "If anyone testifies that None has the right to be worshipped but Allah Alone Who has no partners, and that Muhammad is His Slave and His Apostle, and that Jesus is Allah's Slave and His Apostle and His Word which He bestowed on Mary and a Spirit created by Him, and that Paradise is true, and Hell is true, Allah will admit him into Paradise with the deeds which he had done even if those deeds were few." (Junada, the sub-narrator said, " 'Ubada added, 'Such a person can enter Paradise through any of its eight gates he likes.")

    Reference  : Sahih al-Bukhari 3435
    In-book reference  : Book 60, Hadith 106
    USC-MSA web (English) reference  : Vol. 4, Book 55, Hadith 644

    THE TRUTH IS:
     
    1. Jesus (pbuh) was not god, because he was born from a human mother, he ate regular food like mankind. What human do after eating food? Looking for a restroom. These are not the qualities of God (Exalted and Glorified)! God (EAG) never eats, never sleeps, never rests. In HIS control are the Heavens and the Earth. HE does not have any shape. God The Exalted was never born and never gave birth.

    2. In the original Greek Bible there are no words of Jesus (pbuh) himself saying: "I am god, worship me." Jesus Christ (pbuh) never said that.

    3. Jesus (pbuh) was not begotten son of God (EAG). God (EAG) never begets (does not bring human being into life throw the process of reproduction). God (EAG) has no shape. And Saint Mary (pbuh) was a virgin. By saying that Jesus (pbuh) is begotten son of God you assault Saint Mary (pbuh).

    DO MUSLIMS FOLLOW JESUS CHRIST (PBUH)?

    Muslims (people who submit to God The Exalted) believe in Jesus Christ (pbuh) and follow his teachings and example:

    1) Covering - clothes
    Have u ever seen Jesus (pbuh) in jeans or suit? 
    Have you ever seen Saint Mary (pbuh) without a headscarf?
    Muslims wear covered loose garments and headscarf like Jesus and Saint Mary (pbut) did.  

    Verses from Holy Bible:

    But every wife who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, since it is the same as if her head were shaven.
    (1 Corinthians 11:5 )

    But if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For her hair is given to her for a covering.
    (1 Corinthians 11:15 )

    A woman shall not wear a man's garment, nor shall a man put on a woman's cloak, for whoever does these things is an abomination to the Lord your God.
    (Deuteronomy 22:5)

    2) Beard
    Have you ever seen Jesus (pbuh) without a beard?
    Muslim men wear beard.

    3) Circumcision
    The Circumcision of Jesus is an event from the life of Jesus according to the Gospel of Luke, which states in verse 2:21 that Jesus was circumcised eight days after his birth.
    All Muslim men are circumcised.

    4) Not eating pork
    Muslims do not eat pork, swine, bacon.

    Verses from Holy Bible:

    And the pig, because it parts the hoof and is cloven-footed but does not chew the cud, is unclean to you. You shall not eat any of their flesh, and you shall not touch their carcasses; they are unclean to you.
    (Leviticus 11:7-8)
    “Those who sanctify and purify themselves to go into the gardens, following one in the midst, eating pig's flesh and the abomination and mice, shall come to an end together, declares the Lord.
    (Isaiah 66:17)
    And the pig, because it parts the hoof but does not chew the cud, is unclean for you. Their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall not touch.
    (Deuteronomy 14:8)

    5) Drinking alcohol 
    Muslims do not drink alcohol. 

    Verses from Holy Bible:

    And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;
    (Ephesians 5:18)
    Wine [is] a mocker, strong drink [is] raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise.
    (Proverbs 20:1)
    Woe unto [them that are] mighty to drink wine, and men of strength to mingle strong drink:
    (Isaiah 5:22)
    [It is] good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor [any thing] whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak. 
    (Romans 14:21)

    6) No sexual relations before marriage
    Muslims do not have sexual relations before marriage.


    Verses from Holy Bible:

    “If a man seduces a virgin who is not betrothed and lies with her, he shall give the bride-price for her and make her his wife.
    (Exodus 22:16)
    For you may be sure of this, that everyone who is sexually immoral or impure, or who is covetous (that is, an idolater), has no inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.
    (Ephesians 5:5)
    Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous.
    (Hebrews 13:4)
    Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body.
    (1 Corinthians 6:18)

    If you claim that you love Jesus (pbuh) you have to follow his teachings.
