5. TOP 20: Is the Qur’an God’s Word? “Isn’t the Quran just a story that was told by an Arab?” “How can you prove that the Quran is God’s Word?” www.dawahcorps.com Jubail Dawah Center

6. TOP 20: Is the Qur’an God’s Word? No error in the Quran or contradictions (Abbrogations—Naskh) The whole way of life--perfect Quran has been preserved in its exact original text Scientific Miracles of the Quran Challenges—none able to reproduce a similar book Eloquence, Poetic, Meaning, Imagery, etc The Prophet’s nature The Qur’an corrects the Prophet (s) www.dawahcorps.com Jubail Dawah Center

7. TOP 20: All regions teach people to be righteous, then why follow only ISLAM? “Judaism, Christianity, and Islam all teach the same basics. What makes Islam so special?” “All religions lead to heaven, don’t they?” “Why do Muslims say that Christians and Jews will go to Hell?” www.dawahcorps.com Jubail Dawah Center

8. TOP 20: All regions teach people to be righteous, then why follow only ISLAM? Yes we agree!—Same Prophets, Values, etc… The difference—Oneness of Allah—practical application of it Anyone—EVEN MUSLIMS---who deny their creator (shirk) go to hell. Allah promises to forgive ANY other sin! All religions have this “save sect” concept, but Islam distinguishes only based on the worship of the Creator (not race or other ceremonies) www.dawahcorps.com Jubail Dawah Center

9. TOP 20: Vast Differences Between Islam and the actual practice of muslims? “Islam means “Peace”, but Muslims are not peaceful.” “Why do I see Muslims behaving worse than non Muslims?” www.dawahcorps.com Jubail Dawah Center

10. TOP 20: Vast Differences Between Islam and the actual practice of Muslims?

11. TOP 20: Shari’a law “What is Shar’ia law? To what extent does the Shar’ia law apply in Australia and does this mean Muslims are more loyal to Shar’ia rather than Australian laws?” www.dawahcorps.com Jubail Dawah Center

12. TOP 20: Shari’a law Muslims follow the rulings from the Quran and Sunnah (Allah’s Rulings) If in a Muslim state, this applies 100% If living in a non Muslim state, this can not be applied 100% Only oppose non Muslim rule when it affects your belief in God, and “oppose” here could mean only in your heart—Hadeeth If in a non Muslim state, MUST respect the authoritative laws—Ex of 1 st migration to Abyssinia—Christian rule www.dawahcorps.com Jubail Dawah Center

13. TOP 20: Slavery “Does Islam allow slavery?” “Even in the modern age, how can Islam still accept slavery?” www.dawahcorps.com Jubail Dawah Center

14. TOP 20: Slavery Slavery was a widespread practice in all cultures until recently Islam came and gave slaves their rights The Quran and Sunnah never mention slavery in order to encourage the act; it actually discourages it. Ex- kaffara (expiation); Reward of “freeing slaves” for certain acts Ex of Anas (r); Belal (r) Abu Bakr (r), Umar (r) Three things taken seriously (divorce, marriage, emancipation) www.dawahcorps.com Jubail Dawah Center

15. TOP 20: Non-Muslim Marriage? “Why are Muslim men allowed to marry non Muslim women, but Muslim women are not allowed to marry non Muslim men? Why the double standard?” www.dawahcorps.com Jubail Dawah Center

16. TOP 20: Non-Muslim Marriage? The woman needs to be a righteous person of the book-seriousness Some discouragement even for men to do this (Ibn Umar—shirk) Some scholars say its only allowed in an Islamic state, in case of disputes. Responsibility—a Muslim woman would never have the upper hand if she married a non Muslim— affects her religion. www.dawahcorps.com Jubail Dawah Center

17. TOP 20: Women 2nd Class “Why do you make women as second class citizens? You don't let them drive, wear the clothes they like, insist on hiding their bodies, and here in Saudi they can't even do business in their own name. Is this human rights?” www.dawahcorps.com Jubail Dawah Center

18. TOP 20: Women 2nd Class Olympic Example—Biological differences Rape in Western World Vs. Muslim World Women are treated like a Queen—reality is different than media Sexual Desire Driving/business/education etc issue in Muslim countries is more of a cultural issue than a religious one. (Blocking the means to evil) www.dawahcorps.com Jubail Dawah Center

19. TOP 20: Homosexuality & Human Rights? “How can you say Islam offers true human rights and is just when a gay man or woman cannot exercise there human right of being different. I mean, I am not gay but I respect those who have made other choices. Like they say; "we should respect the differences". www.dawahcorps.com Jubail Dawah Center

20. TOP 20: Homosexuality & Human Rights? Controlling of desires is the key— homosexuality/rape/adultery/drinking Recent phenomenon of acceptance Mistakes/Forgiveness—worst sin is Shirk www.dawahcorps.com Jubail Dawah Center

21. TOP 20: The Only True Religion “Muslims always say "Islam is the only way to god" but we are all from the Abrahamic faiths and we (Jews & Christians) are worshipping one god but in different ways. In the end, I believe there is 'one god and many paths to him'. www.dawahcorps.com Jubail Dawah Center

22. TOP 20: The Only True Religion Instruction-manual and apparatus scenario (one manual for one instrument) Worshiping GOD should be done on GOD’s own terms, not on your own. Example:  Husband trying to please his wife by doing things that she actually does not like In Quran—Jews, Christians, Sabians will be in Paradise. Original message www.dawahcorps.com Jubail Dawah Center

23. TOP 20: QUR’AN PLAGIARIZED FROM THE BIBLE Is it not true that Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) has copied the Qur’an from the Bible? Many critics allege that Prophet Muhummad (pbuh) himself was not the author of the Qur’an but he learnt it and/or plagiarized (copied or adapted) it from other human sources or from previous scriptures or revelations. www.dawahcorps.com Jubail Dawah Center

24. TOP 20: QUR’AN PLAGIARIZED FROM THE BIBLE Islam was the completion of all previous messages—all prophets were from God, with the same message. If P (s) was illiterate, how could he plagiarize? (Shakespeare) Travel 3 times only Why are there differences then? www.dawahcorps.com Jubail Dawah Center
