September 13, 2013 at 6:57am · The Idols Disown Their Idolizers [16:86] And when those who committed idol worship see their idols, they will say, "Our Lord, these are the idols we had set up beside You." The idols will then confront them and say, "You are liars."

September 13, 2013 at 6:56am · On The Day of Resurrection [16:84] 1+6=8+4=19 The day will come when we raise from every community a witness, then those who disbelieved will not be permitted (to speak), nor will they be excused.

[16:66] 1+6+6+6=19 And in the livestock there is a lesson for you: we provide you with a drink from their bellies. From the midst of digested food and blood, you get pure milk, delicious for the drinkers.

[16:93] 1+6+9+3=19. Had GOD willed, He could have made you one congregation. But He sends astray whoever chooses to go astray, and He guides whoever wishes to be guided.* You will surely be asked about everything you have done.

ALL RELIGIOUS PRACTICES IN ISLAM EXISTED BEFORE MUHAMMAD. Muhammad's SOLE FUNCTION was to deliver Quran (see Pages 30-33). ABRAHAM: THE FOUNDER OF ISLAM Abraham was the first recipient of the concept of ISLAM, and the first user of the word "MUSLIM" (see 2:131). "You shall strive in the cause of God as you should. He has blessed you, and imposed no hardship in your religion; the RELIGION OF YOUR FATHER ABRAHAM. Abraham is the one who named you 'Muslims' in the beginning. Thus, the messenger serves as witness among you, just as you serve as witnesses among the people. Therefore, you shall observe the Salat prayers, give the Zakat charity, and hold fast to God; He is your Lord; the best Lord, and the best supporter." (22:78) Thus, if Abraham is the founder of Islam, did he contribute anything to our Islamic life? The answer is: "YES; he contributed THE RELIGIOUS PRACTICES (Salat, Zakat, Fasting, & Hajj)."

FUNCTION OF EVERY MESSENGER YOU SHALL NOT WORSHIP EXCEPT GOD Neither Jesus, nor Muhammad, want to be idolized. Their sole function was to preach the worship of GOD ALONE. "Every messenger we sent before you was instructed to preach that there is no god except Me; you shall worship Me alone. Then they said, 'God most gracious has begotten a son.' Glory be to Him; all the messengers are no more than honored servants. They do not speak on their own; they simply follow His commands. He knows their past and their future, and they possess no power to intercede except on behalf of those already approved by God. The messengers themselves are worried about their own fate. And, if any of them claims to be a god beside God, we will punish him in hell; we thus punish the wicked." (21:25-29)

The Quran clearly identifies intercession as idol worship, and declares a GREAT CRITERION; that those who believe in intercession cannot stand to talk about God alone; THEY HAVE TO MENTION THEIR IDOLS ALONG. "Say, 'To God belongs ALL INTERCESSION. To Him belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, then to Him you will be returned.' When GOD ALONE is advocated, the hearts of those who do not believe in the hereafter shrink with aversion. But when idols are mentioned along with Him, they become satisfied." (39:44-45)

"They idolize beside God those who possess no power to harm them or benefit them, and say, 'These are our intercessors at God.' Say, 'Are you informing God of something He does not know in the heavens or the earth?' Glory be to Him; He is much too high to have any partners." (10:18)

"The prophets simply follow the commandments of God. He knows their past and future. THEY CANNOT INTERCEDE EXCEPT ON BEHALF OF THOSE ALREADY SAVED BY GOD. The prophets themselves worry about their own fate." (21:28)

MUHAMMAD DOES NOT KNOW THE FUTURE "Say (O Muhammad), 'I do not bring anything new that is different from any other messenger. I have no idea what may happen to me, or to you. I simply follow what is revealed to me. I am no more than a manifest warner.'" (46:9)

The true love of Jesus is to recognize him as a human and a messenger of God. The Christians love Jesus so much, yet he disowns them on the Day of Judgment (Matthew 7:23 and Quran 5:116).

Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi spent his last moments begging for a plastic bag to be removed from his head, according to a Turkish investigative journalist. The killing lasted for about seven minutes. In an interview with Al Jazeera, Nazif Karaman, the head of investigations at the Turkish Daily Sabah newspaper, cited audio recordings of Khashoggi's final words as he was being murdered in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul. I'm suffocating... Take this bag off my head, I'm claustrophobic. According to Karaman, the recordings indicate that it took the killers about seven minutes to choke Khashoggi to death with a plastic bag placed over his head. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan earlier said audio of Khashoggi's gruesome murder had been shared with Saudi Arabia, the US, the UK, France and Germany. Ankara has claimed to have the recording since the beginning of October, when the killing took place. Read more Protesters outside the Saudi consulate ...
