Since one happens to be from Christianity, just tell us:
Did Jesus ever read the Gospels even once in whole of his life as we find it today? Please
I will ask this question to one who is from Judaism:
Did Moses ever read the Torah even once in whole of his life as we find it today? Please
There is nothing personal here for anybody,if one does not agree with me on any point mentioned above, one may ask me question/s, I will reply if I know the answer and or the question is a valid one.
No offense intended, I only express my viewpoint fully and sincerely which I believe to be reasonable, truthful and principled. Right? Please
Regards
Can it be said that anyone either fully embraces or rejects everything? One of the things that keeps philosophy going is someone taking a part of what they like about what some other said, expanding on that idea, and discarding the ideas from the same author they don't like.No, this is not a joke thread.
Muslims, I find it really offensive that you dare refer to the Jewish and Christian Scriptures as 'corrupted', but not only this, you then proceed to try to tell us that, using the same so-called 'corrupted' Scripture, that Muhammad was prophesied in said Scripture. Not only this but also that all previous prophets were Muslims.
Seriously, make up your damn minds.
You cannot use BOTH arguments.
Also, the Christian and Jewish Scriptures have remained unchanged since before the time of Muhammad; we know this, we have copies from before the 7th century.
Either you believe the Torah and the Gospel are corrupted or you don't.
Goddamn pick one.

This is incorrect, Ishmael is regarded as a prophet of God first born of Abraham, and mentioned at least 10 times in the Quran.I don't believe 'Ishmael' is specifically mentioned in the Qur'an, it is just Islamic tradition. I could be wrong, however.
So if Muslims think Jacobs line were all prophets too they have some explaining to do.Ishmael is recognized as an important prophet and patriarch of Islam. Muslims believe that Ishmael was the firstborn of Abraham, born to him from his second wife Hagar. Ishmael is recognized by Muslims as the ancestor of several prominent Arab tribes and being the forefather of Muhammad. Muslims also believe that Muhammad was the descendant of Ishmael that would establish a great nation, as promised by God in the Old Testament.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ishmael
Muslims appear to have the same sort of argument I have heard from Latter Day Saints. That all the books were corrupt so they gotta write their own coming from one last prophet to finally make the uncorruptable true religion. It seems to me rather convenient that all earth religions were corrupt so these "prophets" can see angels and were able to bring a final true religion. Certainly Muslims complicate things by claiming authority via both Ishmael and Isaacs son Jacob, since Muslims also think Jesus was a great prophet from the line of Jacob. To be frank, Muslim religion is just another Christian offshoot in this respect, but with added religious texts. I do find that hard to reconcile leaning on religions that are supposedly corrupt and then try and convince followers that it won't happen anymore. I'm curious to know what Islam thinks will happen to their religion in end days.No, this is not a joke thread.

I didn't say that you said there was something wrong with it. I said that essentially, the practical ramifications are the same. Absorbing a few of the previous religion's characteristics, while expelling the rest.
You should explain how the Laws of Judaism were replaced with Laws and Ordinances that are more relevant to this age, but at the same time are not outdated for Jews today to follow.
You should also explain how Baha'i is replacing the 7 Jewish Noahide Laws for non-Jews, without saying that Judaism is not invalid.
Of course they don't. But why don't the 7 Jewish Noahide Laws apply to you today? What happened to them?
Had you been Christian today, do you believe as a Baha'i that you should ideally remain a Christian or become a Baha'i?
Peace be on you...........but I do think we aren't too far away from a global secular shift and the emergence of new non-dogmatic religious/spiritual ideas and the rise of atheism and agnosticism, ........
You missed the context. I meant that Ishmael isn't mentioned as the son to be sacrificed.This is incorrect, Ishmael is regarded as a prophet of God first born of Abraham, and mentioned at least 10 times in the Quran.
So if Muslims think Jacobs line were all prophets too they have some explaining to do.
Peace be on all.Did Muhammad (p) ever read the Qur'an even once in the whole of his life as we find it today?
Peace be on all.
Yes.
"Whenever any portion of the Quran was revealed to the Holy Prophet, he used to commit it to memory and, as he continuously recited the Quran from one end to the other, he always carried the whole of the revealed Quran at all times in his memory. In addition to this the following devices were adopted for safe-guarding and preserving intact the text of the Quran :....."
Ref: Page 355 @ https://www.alislam.org/library/books/Introduction-Study-Holy-Quran.pdf
I don't think that's a proper response to what I've said. I'm talking about how Baha'i has absorbed a few elements of Islam while throwing away the rest. Just as Islam absorbed a few elements of Christianity and threw away the rest. Just as Christianity has absorbed a few elements of Judaism and threw away the rest.Oh my....*sigh* Again, we are dealing with separate religions, not different branches of Judaism.
Yes, I understand. Only Baha'i need to follow Baha'i law.Once again, as time passes, newer religions are created. Coming from this, newer sets of laws for the religious communities are put into place. Some of them carried over from the previous religion, some are altered, others are done away with entirely, and other brand new laws are created. This new set of laws would apply only to the newer religion, not the older ones.
Of course you need to reinterpret Jewish Law as stating that only people who follow Judaism are Jews, as opposed to the present Law that people born of a Jewish mother or convert is a Jew. Otherwise, there's going to be a problem with all those Jewish converts to Baha'i...And again, the Jewish Laws are only relevant for Jews, not non-Jews.The same applies to every other religion. There are still Jews in the world, so to them, halakhah applies, not to later religions.
What does your responsibility to G-d have to do with us? I could hear the conversation:And anyway, Tumah, many Jews don't really make a big deal out of the Noahide Laws. For the most part, y'all don't even care to advocate them among followers of other religions, do y'all?
Not as a Baha'i as a non-Jew. The existence of Baha'i contradicts the already established Divine Noahide Laws. All non-Jews are required to keep the 7 Noahide Laws. Baha'is don't. There is no one about whom you can say, "keeping the 7 Noahide Laws are for Noahides, not Baha'is", because all non-Jews, including yourself are already Noahides.So, tell me why the Noahide Laws should matter to me, as a Bahá’í?
Yes, I'm aware. Christianity and Islam does too. I don't see how that really matters for the purposes of this conversation.(Here's something, I hope, meaningful to consider, my Orthodox Jewish brother: my religion does accept Moses as one of many Messengers of G-d, and we do accept the Torah as being Divinely Revealed. )
That was accidental. To the best of my knowledge, its not true. You've liked my post in the Judaism DIR. You can read all about it there.Well, brother Tumah, y'all dropped the Laws, not us. Again, y'all don't advocate them among us as non-Jews, do y'all? But this genuinely has my interest piqued. I would like to know: I once heard that there was the concept of ‘Noahide’ religions, or followers of other religions (e.g. Muslims) as ‘Noahide’. Is this true? If so, then in your opinion, does my religion count as a ‘Noahide’ religion?
All religions were formulated by the manifestations of god, yes I'm aware. However, the Baha'i belief seems to be that eventually Baha'i will become the dominant one.Concerning your question about whether I should, in such a case, remain a Christian or become a Bahá’í, I would search my own heart for such an answer. As to which religion is ideal, Tumah, I believe that any religion that guides you towards righteous actions in life (which, I am convinced, is fundamentally what God expects of people) is ideal. So, either one I chose wouldn't matter at all. From a Bahá’í perspective, “all Religions are ordained of God, and... except a few which are the outcome of human perversities, are reflections of His Will and Purpose. ”
