Comparison between Christianity, Judaism and Islam

The Muslim Belief

Prophet Muhammed was not the founder of a new religionThe word “ISLAM” is an Arabic word which means “Submission to the Will of God”. Therefore, to achieve true peace of mind, we must submit to God and live according to His Divinely revealed Law.

Islam is not a new religion as “Submission to the Will of God” is the same eternal message taught by all of God’s prophets. Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad, all brought the same message of Pure Monotheism (i.e. Islam and submission).

According to Islam, God created mankind for a single, noble purpose: to worship Him and lead a virtuous life

To convey the message of Monotheism, God sent 1000’s of prophets to mankind. Well-known prophets include Adam, Aaron, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Ishmael, Isaiah, David, Daniel, Ezekiel, Moses, Jacob, Jonah, John, Jesus, Solomon, Muhammad and more.

Why are Noah, Abraham, Moses and Jesus called Muslim Prophets?

All prophets sent by God preached MONOTHEISM

The belief in a single God and not associate partners with Him through false dieties, idols, statues, man-gods etc. By preaching Monotheism and submitting to God’s Will, all prophets are considered “in essence” as MUSLIM PROPHETS or followers of ISLAM.

ISLAM is an Arabic word translates as ‘Submission’

All of God’s prophets preached “Submission” to God. So, “in essence” all prophets were MUSLIM PROPHETS, even though they observed earlier Laws (i.e. Jewish etc.)

ALL MUSLIMS must believe in, respect and honour all prophets. This is a fundamental requirement of the Islamic Belief
