@@falsesectslikeshiaarejudeo6543 Just the Cyrus or Alexander stories are israilliyat, meaning they have no basis in purely islamic litterature and found basis in jewish one. A thing to consider regarding such assertions is that nowhere in the Quran will you find a pagan that is blessed. Yet both Cyrus and Alexander were pagans without a doubt, so one should ponder if Allah would glorify a pagan by even putting his name in the Quran...

@@BloggingTheology Can Professor Ali explain who created Al lah?? And if al lah is created, has anyone seen al lah??

[@moosa86]

@Renato Lopez “Allah” Is a unique compound word of the 2 words “Al” (definite article) which translates to “the” and “elah” (Semitic word for “god”) therefore Allah translates to “The God” and it implies the uniqueness and singularity of God. Arab Christians and Yemeni Jews also use this word (Allah) when referring to the supreme deity that they worship. Christ also used such a word as it is Aramaic for “God.” see this clip from Mel Gibson’s movie: m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/g2SWaWpnns19h5Y

[@Ersilay]

@@moosa86 it's a bit more complicated. Allah can't be translated to "the God" because Al-Ilah already means "the God" in arabic. Allah is not changeable in account to numbers or gender, meaning the name itself has a meaning of uniqueness. Allah as such already encompasses the meaning of tawhid, there is no other god than Allah. A more accurate understanding would be "the only true God", because it both marks the uniqueness as well as the exclusion of every other possible deities. But even then, this is flawed and Allah knows best.

[@rudycataldo3653]

The Son of Man in Daniel 7 is the Messiah, as even Rabbi Rashi agreed, so lets dig into the text. Daniel 7:13 says one "like a son of man." This being isn't just a man, but has the appearance of a man just like the glory of the Lord in Ezekiel 1. Jesus was put to death for what was perceived as blasphemy, specifically for His remarks in Mark 14:62 and Matthew 26:64, by combining two OT passages to Himself, including the Son of Man title. “I kept looking Until THRONES (plural) were set up, And the Ancient of Days (title for God/ Jesus has the appearance of the Ancient of Days in Revelation 1:14) was seated; His clothing was like white snow And the hair of His head like pure wool. His throne was ablaze with fire, Its wheels were a burning fire. “I kept looking in the night visions, And behold, with the clouds of heaven One like a Son of Man was coming, And He came up to the Ancient of Days And came near before Him. “And to Him was given dominion, Glory, and a kingdom, That all the peoples, nations, and men of every tongue Might serve Him. HIS DOMINION IS AN EVERLASTING DOMINION Which will not be taken away; And His kingdom is one Which will not be destroyed." Daniel 7:9‭, ‬13‭-‬14 The Son of Man is the Messiah, as even Rashi's commentary admits, and this figure is obviously divine with an everlasting dominion, and people will "serve" him. The Hebrew word used here for serve is פְּלַח (pelach), which is always used in the context serving God- check a concordance on the word. Let's look at who the second Lord is in Psalm 110:1. Rashi said of the psalm that it was about Abraham, “but there is a difficulty in the fact that it speaks of Zion, which was the city of David." So even Rashi saw a problem with his exegete. The Midrash on the Psalms says of the verse ‘Sit at my right hand’, that “he says this to the Messiah; and his throne is prepared in grace and he will sit upon it”. But luckily verse 5 clears up who it's about......"The Lord is at Your right hand; He will crush kings in the day of His anger." Psalms 110:5 The Hebrew word used for Lord in verse 5 is - אֲדֹנָ֥י which is exclusively used for God. So it is literally God sitting at God's right hand. Both passages are about the Messiah, and both passages are speaking of a divine person. So the one "like" a Son of Man is indeed YHWH Himself. Fully God and fully man.

Is the profit coming back according to Islam? Or are you alleging this already happened? To my recollection nothing is further from the truth occurred with the profit, he died by poisoning. Also, are you sure it’s in line with Islam that allah give someone an everlasting dominion? Matthew 24:30 “Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then all the peoples of the earth[a] will mourn(A) when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven,(B) with power and great glory Matthew 16:19, Jesus says to Peter, "I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on Earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on Earth shall be loosed in heaven. Isaiah 19 The burden against Egypt. Behold, the LORD rides on a swift cloud, And will come into Egypt; The idols of Egypt will totter at His presence, And the heart of Egypt will melt in its midst. Deuteronomy 33:26 Verse Concepts “There is none like the God of Jeshurun, Who rides the heavens to your help, And through the skies in His majesty. Psalm 68:33 To Him who rides upon the highest heavens, which are from ancient times; Behold, He speaks forth with His voice, a mighty voice. "As to him, by Allah, death has overtaken him, and I hope the best for him. By Allah, though I am the Apostle of Allah, yet I do not know what Allah will do to me." (Sahih al-Bukhari, Volume 5, Book 58, Number 266)

Say: 'If I have forged it, you have no power to help me against Allah. He knows very well what you are pressing upon; He suffices as a witness between me and you; He is the All-forgiving, the All-compassionate.'

The information presented here is remarkable. the connections to Enoch literature as well as the recognition of neoplatonism as a major influence to both Judaism and Christianity's developments. As someone who journeyed from Evangelical Christianity into rabbinic Judaism for several years, this info is absolutely priceless. Alhamdulillah for the deen of Islam.

This program is one of the best program of Blogging Theology. Thanks to Mr. Williams and Mr. Ataie for their contributions to a topic which is so important in human life. Dr. Ataie is simply brilliant. He provided good words. He was able to bring out the correct interpretation of “ The Son of Man” by providing sufficient evidence, by unveiling the witnesses including the calendar. “ A good word is as a good tree - it’s roots are firm, and it’s branches are in heaven; The Qur’an- Abraham ( 14 ) : 30. Decisive human sport is visible in theology that involves mankind . Allah says in The Qur’an : “ and in this , that the messenger might be a witness against you , and that they might be witnesses against mankind .” The Qur’an - 22:76.

"That's okay... that's life." I agree. And because there is so much in life that eludes our understanding, we do need to have "open minds" to various interpretations of ancient idioms, and in particular "son of man." As Dr. Ataie said, "we'll only scratch the surface..." Well... we have to begin somewhere, right? Good scholars are a good place to start. And I think we have great scholars both within Islam and Christianity !

[@moosa86]

Hey there John I watched this the other night and thought I’d pass it on to you as a digestible film to build your baseline understanding of early church history. Even though there are aspects of this video that I don’t agree with it is still good at helping to put names with faces. It’s a shame the presenter doesn’t go into more detail on the “Arian Controversy” of the 4th century and how it forever changed Christian theology but it’s to be expected as this is a highly controversial topic that modern (Trinitarian) Christians are biased on and don’t want to dwell on...

I understand now why Muslims always return the greatness to God by saying Subhanallah or Allahuakbar when in awe with His creations. Otherwise it will be easy to fall into the trap of assigning divinity to great men, leaders, trees, mountains, celestial objects etc.

But it's too bad that their Allah is Muhammad's servant and not the true God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and Jesus'heavenly Father.

[@moosa86]

How do you figure that?

[@jeanclaudepierrot2971]

@@moosa86 You've never noticed how Muhammad speaks for Allah? We read: Chapter 66 of the Quran,. Translated by Tafsir Al- Jalalayn, " O prophet! Why do you prohibit why God has made lawful for you in terms of your Coptic handmaiden Mariya when he lay with her in the house of Hafsa who had been away but upon returning and finding out became upset by the fact that this had taken place in her house and on her own bed - by saying " she is unlawful for me!", seeking by making her unlawful for you to please your wives? And God is forgiving merciful having forgiven you this prohibition". So Muhammad is caught sleeping with Maryia his slave by his wives Aisha and Hafsa in her house and later has a revelation from merciful and all forgiving Allah that why should he prohibit himself from cheating on his wives ? Isn't it crystal clear that Muhammad is speaking for Allah? After the conquest of Khaybar, Abu Sa'id al- Khudri said, then the apostle of Allah sent a military expedition to Awtas on the occasion of the battle of Hunain, they fought there, defeated them and took them captives. Some of Muhammad's companions were relectant to have intercourse with female captives in the presence of their unbelieving husbands, so Allah the exhalted sent down the Quranic verse, " And all married women are forbidden unto you save those ( captives) whom your right hand possess. That is to say they are lawful for them when they complete their waiting period. Sunan Abu Dawud vol. II Book V So Muhammad's men were reluctant in having sex with their married female captives in front of their husbands, but Muhammad had a revelation from merciful and forgiving Allah saying that it was ok " whom your right hand possess" meaning captives and the married female captives are allowed to have sex with them but after the waiting period, which according to Islamic law was a month. Sahih Muslim ,The Book of Marriage ( Kutab Al- Nukah Aisha ( Allah be pleased with her) reported: " I felt jealous of the women who offered themselves to Allah's messenger and said," then Allah the exhalted and glorious revealed this, " you may defer any one of them you wish and take to yourself any you wish and if you desire any you have set ( no sin is chargeable to you) XXX III , 51) So Allah is granting any woman Muhammad wishes thus satisfying his lustful and sinful desires and he will not be commiting any sins. Quran 30:51, " You ( Oh Muhammad SAW can postpone ( the two of) whom you will of them ( your wives) and you may receive whom you will. And whomsoever you desire if those whom you have set aside ( her turn temporarily) Oh prophet, this privilege is yours alone to the exclusion of other believers". So here Muhammad is granted the privege to have any woman he desires even if she is married, she must divorce her husband. According to Quran 55:1, Allah forbids Muslims from taking the Christians and Jews as friends, allies or protectors because the are friends only of each other and if they do then they shall become one of them and Allah condemns the wrongdoers. So it's quite obvious that because of Muhammad's hatred for the Christians and Jews he had this revelation from Allah for Muslims not to befriend them. In Quran 9:29, Allah commands Muslims to fight the unbelievers even the people of the " Book", meaning the Christians and Jews until they pay the " jizya" the protection tax. So it's obvious that Muhammad is saying that it's Allah's will that the Christians and Jews are to pay Muhammad for allowing them to remain in Arabia as long as they make Muhammad wealthy by paying him the protection tax. So it's very clear and unambiguous that Muhammad and Allah are One and the same person.
