Muslims generally are of 2 types :
[1] Muslim by chance;
[2] Muslim by choice.
We must not take for granted our being Muslim - as this is already a
great favour which Allah SWT has given us.
Every Muslim must ‘strive’ to remain true and loyal to this DEEN
(religion), by constant learning and acquiring the right knowledge
(‘ILM) and diligently putting to practice what they have learnt with
righteous deeds (‘AMAL).
Although many have come into Islam, yet it is unfortunate that there
are also some who became Murtad (renounce or leave Islam).

peace:
“Come follow our religion and we will follow yours. You worship our
idols for a year and we worship you Allah the following year. In
this way, if what you have brought us is better than what we

interested to popularize this teaching
amongst the Hellenized world (Romans and
Greek). Scholars considered him to be a
Hellenized Jew (i.e. a Jew strongly
influenced by Greek culture and ways of
life). He was not amongst the original
disciples of Jesus. He was originally a
persecutor but then later converted,
claiming to have seen a ‘vision’.

Some Christian would

Simple explanation in
Matthew 28: 19:
These words does not mean that
Jesus teaches Trinity, rather the
use of the phrase “..in the name
of ” signify authoritative basis
for preaching.”. Example an
ambassador acting on behalf of
the government and country will
sign “in the name of the head of
state and the country, but writing
his own name.” The teaching of
the religion is with the authority
sanction by God, His angel and
His Messenger. Just as it is
wrong to say that the
ambassador is also literally the
country, thus it would be wrong
to say that the Messenger is also
God.
