Description

Isa al Masih -- The Arabic name of "Jesus Christ". See here for a more detailed explanation of the Christian beliefs of Jesus and the events surround his birth, life and death. Allah -- The one, supreme, and only God, the creator of the world and the universe. The term "Allah" is used by Muslims and many Arabic-speaking Christians alike to refer to the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob whom adherents of Christianity, Islam, and Judaism worship. Many Muslims use the name "Allah" interchangeably with the name "God." We do recognize, however, that there are some differences in the personalities attributed to "Allah" in the Qur'an, and "God" in the Bible. AL-'ADL -- "The Just". Among the 99 Names of God in Islamic theology. AL-'ALM -- "The All-Knowing". Among the 99 Names of God in Islamic theology. AL-GAFR -- "The Forgiving". Among the 99 Names of God in Islamic theology. AL-HAKAM, AL-FATTH -- "The Judge". Among the 99 Names of God in Islamic theology. Al-Zabur -- The name given in the Islamic religion to the Psalms of David of the Old Testament (but perhaps equivalent to the Kethubim, the third division of the Hebrew Bible). Allahuakbar -- In Islamic culture, meaning "God is great". Assalaamu laykum -- A common greeting in Islamic culture meaning "Peace be upon you." The common reply is then "Wa alaykumus salaam" (peace be upon you). Bismillah -- In Islamic culture, meaning "in the name of Allah". Crusades -- During the 11th, 12th, and 13th centuries, these were the military campaigns embarked upon in the name of "Christianity" to recover the Holy Land from Muslim occupation. Please see our apology . Dawud -- The Arabic name for "David", King of Israel. See here for more information. Eid ul-Fitr -- "A 3 day Islamic fast marking the close of Ramadan. It is a festival of thanksgiving to Allah for enjoying the month of Ramadan. It involves wearing finest clothing, saying prayers, and fostering understanding with other religions." [ 1 ] Also known as "Id-al-Fitr". Eid-ul-Adha -- "Islamic Feast of Sacrifice. The most important feast of Islam. It concludes the Hajj and is a three-day festival recalling Abraham's willingness to sacrifice his son in obedience to Allah." [ 2 ] Also known as "Id al-Adha". Do you know the secret meaning behind Id-al-Adha? Hadith -- Recorded teachings of the Prophet Mohammed (pbuh), outside of the Qur'an. Also known as "The Traditions".

[ 4 ] Injil -- A title used in Islamic culture for the books known in Christianity as the "New Testament" and considered by the Qur'an to be Divinely revealed.
