Islam

Islam and Christianity"O People of the Scripture! Do not exaggerate

in your religion nor utter aught concerning Allah save the truth. The Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, was only a messenger of Allah, and His

word which He conveyed unto Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe in Allah and His messengers, and say

not "Three" - Cease! (it is) better for you! - Allah is only One Allah. Far is it removed from His

Transcendent Majesty that He should have a son.“ (Sura 4:171)

Sura 1In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.Praise be to Allah, the Cherisher and Sustainer of the

worlds;Most Gracious, Most Merciful;Master of the Day of Judgment.Thee do we worship, and Thine aid we seek.Show us the straight way,The way of those on whom Thou hast bestowed ThyGrace, those whose (portion) is not wrath, and who gonot astray.

Jihad"Fight in the cause of Allah those who fight you but do not

transgress limits...191And slay them wherever ye catch them. and turn them out from where they have turned

you out; for persecution is worse than slaughter; But fight them not at the sacred Mosque unless they (first) fight you

there; But if they fight you, slay them.  Such is the reward of those who reject faith.  192 But if they cease, Allah is oft-

forgiving, Most Merciful.  193And fight them on until there is no

more persecution. And the religion becomes Allah's.  But if they cease, Let there be no hostility except to those who

practice oppression“Surah 2:190-193
