If you study their biographies, Jesus and Muhammad lived very different lives. Their actions, their words, and their teachings were different.
Let’s look at a few examples.
Muhammad said: “Allah hates those who don’t accept Islam.” (Qur’an 30:45, 3:32, 22:38)
Jesus said: God loves the whole world and desires salvation for all. (John 3:16)
Muhammad said: “Fight everyone in the way of Allah and kill those who disbelieve in Allah.” (Ibn Ishaq 992)

Jesus said: “I have come to seek and save those who are lost.” (Luke 19:10)
Muhammad stoned women for adultery. (Muslim 4206)
Jesus saved a woman from being stoned for adultery. (John 8:7)

Jesus said: “You shall not steal.” (Matthew 19:18)
Muhammad permitted Muslims to lie. (Sahih Muslim 6303, Bukhari 49:857)

Jesus and his followers beheaded no one.
Muhammad ordered the murder of those who insulted him. (Bukhari 56:369, 4:241)
Jesus preached forgiveness. (Matthew 18:21-22, 5:38)
Muhammad said: Jihad in the way of Allah elevates one’s position in Paradise by a hundredfold. (Muslim 4645)
Jesus said: “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God” (Matthew 5:9)
Muhammad married 13 wives and kept many sex slaves. (Bukhari 5:268, Qur’an 33:50)
Jesus never married.
Muhammad ordered the murder of women. (Ibn Ishaq 819, 995)
Jesus never harmed any woman.
Muhammad killed captives taken in battle. (Ibn Ishaq 451)
Jesus never took captives or killed anyone.
Muhammad encouraged his men to rape their female slaves. (Abu Dawood 2150, Qur’an 4:24)
Jesus never enslaved women or encouraged rape.
Muhammad tortured people. (Muslim 4131, Ibn Ishaq 436, 595, 734, 764)
Jesus suffered torture but never tortured anyone.
Muhammad said: “Fight them until there is no more persecution and religion is only for Allah” (Qur’an 8:39)
Jesus said: “Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you” (Matthew 5:44)
Muhammad praised the brutal murder of a half-blind man (al-Tabari 1440)
Jesus healed blind men (Mark 8:28, etc)
Muhammad ordered a slave to build the pulpit from which he preached Islam. (Bukhari 47:743)
Jesus washed his disciples’ feet to teach humility and servanthood. (John 13:5)
When Muhammad first heard from the angel, he was terrified, and ran away fearing it was a demon and he even wanted to commit suicide.
When Jesus heard from God, he began his ministry with boldness.
God never spoke directly to Muhammad, but rather Muhammad received his calling from an angel in the darkness of a cave.
God spoke directly to Jesus, in the daylight and with witnesses around.
Muhammad succumbed to magic and witchcraft.
Jesus commanded evil spirits and demons to flee from him.
Muhammad was a sinner. (Quran 40:55, 48:1-2)
Jesus never sinned. (1 Peter 2:22)
Muhammad performed no miracles.
Jesus performed many miracles.
Muhammad was just a man.
Jesus claimed to be God (John 8:24; 8:58), who had come in the form of a man.
As you can see the teaching and actions of Jesus and Muhammad were diametrically opposed. The thing is, if you accept one, you would have to reject the other because both cannot be right at the same time..

is that the criteria of true and false prophets. ?
Reason number 1 , mohamed is only a man , of really do you think prophet is God ? 😂😂 Is Abraham , moses , Joseph , Adam , jonnah Gods .
Reason number two , allah refer to mohamed as sinful , however this is not true and this is your understanding as god already say he forgive his past and future sins but he keep asking for forgiveness this doesn’t mean that he is sinful , but anyway let’s say he sinned that cannot make him a prophet ! So mean no prophet sinned !! 😁
Reason number 3 : he did miracles but anyway
In exactly this verses you bring about saying if they ask you about a miracle say that others messengers before did miracles and also people don’t believe , maybe maybe in my opinion god told him to say this so people will not say that he is god also as people did with Jesus 😁
Reason number 4 : nothing predict about Mohamed , there is prediction in the old treatment mohamedim in Hebrew which is mohamed in English by the way like allah allahim and the exactly place that he will be and hidar and the new testament even firstly in john 14:16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, who will never leave you.”
Then john 14:26 But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.
And then john 15:26 When the Advocate comes, whom I will send to you from the Father—the Spirit of truth who goes out from the Father—he will testify about me.
Then john 16:7 But very truly I tell you, it is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.
What is the original word in greek Paraklētos which is only changed by 1 letter however Paraklētos means comforter or helper or beloved which fits no one except mohamed not the holy spirit
Reason 5: read this chapter that you got which is ch 9:5 and 9:29 , read from verse 1 to 32 you will understand it’s only fight back those who will fight you , you can’t just bring a sentence and take it out of context , it’s like exactly when you take sentence i and father are one where is the context you have to back and start from john 10:23 before you just say about 10:30 , and you will understand father and Jesus are one in pursue 😁 you just understand what you want to understand and being selective
Reason number 6 : you have to understand that mohamed is a prophet that lives to show the humanity the way of living and the law of everything as jesus said i have alot of thing to tell you , mohamed show every detail in live , everything details , so god ordered him to marry his adopted son’s wife to show to the people after like now that the father is allowed to marry his adopted son’s wife after divorce or death and that what god said in Quran
Reasons 7 : alot of prophecies given by mohamed you were just selective or you know only one , you can search more and find not one of them false by the way
Reason 8 : that is not true you and also read the context to understand, man there is 1.8 billion Muslim if this is true as the way you understand no one would be alive either me and you .
Reason 9 :he is showing people how this should be happen and in just , as he is the live example prophet
Reason 10 : oh what’s is the same reason number 5 or you just repeat and give the same ch 9:5 or you suddenly understand in different way
Reason 11 : others gave lives for him ,or people defend him , someone try to protect the prophet so this doesn’t make the man a prophet , or they should all run away as the disciples of Jesus did ! what is the criteria of prophet and where did you get the criteria from ?😂
Reason 12 : actually he didn’t say that go but to the hadith and don’t quote in wrong way , just don’t lie , also however it’s a weak hadith and fabricated
Reason 13 : God doesn’t love the one who don’t surrender and believe in him and make worship another god with him ,, how this anyway make mohamed not a prophet what is the criteria of the prophet !
Reason 14 : mohamed stoned woman for adultery , there is a punishment for adultery and everyone known in the time of mohamed and the woman come and told him and i want to be stoned asi did this mihamed said need 4 witnesses try to make her to change her mind and after some time she came again said the same and Mohamed gave her another chance and then she came the third time and she insisted to be stoned , you just say without understanding , also how this make him a false prophet from god ?!
Reason 15 : you just say anything the one who steal git his hand cut , you see who hard is the punishment , this is the hadith that you quoted
said, “We were in the company of the Prophet at Dhul-Hulaifa. The people felt hungry and captured some camels and sheep (as booty). The Prophet was behind the people. They hurried and slaughtered the animals and put their meat in pots and started cooking it. (When the Prophet came) he ordered the pots to be upset and then he distributed the animals (of the booty), regarding ten sheep as equal to one camel. One of the camels fled and the people ran after it till they were exhausted. At that time there were few horses. A man threw an arrow at the camel, and Allah stopped the camel with it. The Prophet ﷺ said, “Some of these animals are like wild animals, so if you lose control over one of these animals, treat it in this way (i.e. shoot it with an arrow).” Before distributing them among the soldiers my grandfather said, “We may meet the enemies in the future and have no knives;
can we slaughter the animals with reeds?” The Prophet ﷺ said, “Use whatever causes blood to flow, and eat the animals if the name of Allah has been mentioned on slaughtering them. Do not slaughter with teeth or fingernails and I will tell you why: It is because teeth are bones (i.e. cannot cut properly) and fingernails are the tools used by the Ethiopians (whom we should not imitate for they are infidels).”
Reason 16: hadith said that one heard Mohamed said “He who makes peace between the people by inventing good information or saying good things, is not a liar
Reason 17 : mohamed free slaves read good , you just read whatever you want only , even if do you think other prophets didn’t have slaves !! What is the criteria of true prophet according to you !! 😂😂😂
Reason 18: what is the situation ! Or you just quoted without reading or understand , however in other situations where mohamed faced the people who insulated him and killed alot of Muslims he asked then what do you think i will do with you , they thought he would kill them , he told them go away you are free to go ! Don’t just quote , however it have nothing about being prophet or not ,what is the criteria of true prophet from god !?
Reason 19 : Mohamed married 13 wives , let’s not even say it’s order from god , what is the relationship between this and being a prophet from god ! How many wives of Abraham , moses , soliman , david , again what is the criteria of true prophet ! 😂
Reason 20 : what is the age of married ?? Is to be fully grown mentally and physically , and not cased harm , at this time 1400 , this 9 years old believe or not was fully grown ,
Go back to history and she what time people were getting married , you can’t compare between and other time and other place , also this child were even engaged to other 2 people before can you imagine so it was at this time totally normal , check the history man , also before no one in all history Criticize about prophet Mohammed even his enemies ! Guess what because at this time it was normal don’t embarrass yourself , also what is the relationship between this and being prophet from God , what if God orderd him for this , maybe to she can live with him since she is young to say about his live later maybe !
Reason 21 : however i didn’t find the hadith even , either in English or Arabic but even if it would be weak or fabricated hadith as through ibn ishaq which he just wrote without checking and making investigation , stop making lies and false accusations about something you don’t know .
Reason 22 : expanding the Muslim country and stand against Persia and romans ! What is this to be a prophet or not !?
Reason 23 : ordered to kill some people during war time ,, oh really what do you think people in war do ? Also what is the situation !
stop making lies and false accusations about something you don’t know , what is this related to be a true prophet ! What is the criteria .
Reason 24 : false accusations about something you don’t know read to understand , i am really tired to this with you
Reason 25 , oooh Mohamed died so he is not a prophet hhhhhhhhhhhh , the prophet shouldn’t die ohhh, all other prophets didn’t die lol , what is the criteria of true prophet you just say anything
As you see i only defend the 25 reasons that you said , however i can ask you questions that you will never be able to another about your belief about Christianity , like what is the name of the God in new testament , ehat is the name of the 3 in 1 God ? Was it jesus ? Or father or holy ghost ? Neither of them are the name of the 3 in one god ? And please don’t say YHWA as if you don’t know YHWA is not the name of the god and no one know till jow what Y H W A stands for . Just stop lying and read your bible , and follow Jesus as you don’t follow Jesus and follow paul who claim to be a messenger and changed the law of God , there is alot but i don’t know to write anymore now
Baher hafez,
My article was not about whether Muhammad qualified as a prophet or not.
You kept defending Muhammad’s prophethood when I hardly even mentioned it.
Here is the first line of my article again.
“If you study their biographies, Jesus and Muhammad lived very different lives. Their actions, their words and their teachings were different.”
When Jesus promised an advocate he was never talking about human not to talk if a dinner like Muhammad
So you cannot just pick one verse and base judgement but rather read the whole text
It says the advocate is spirit he lives in us to show us the way and we live like Jesus
Just us Jesus never sinned
The advocate helps us to live sinless lives. Muhammed is dead, he was a sinner
The spirit of Jesus
The spirit he promised us is still living in born again christians
That’s why we have power over sin because we have his spirit
That’s the holy spirit
That’s why we’re are v
“This definitely isn’t biased or taken out of context in any way, and it definitely isn’t a statement against a whole religion.” If you actually studied the Quran, you would know the context behind these Ayat. You take 5 minutes of research and immediately assume meanings for Ayat, but refuse to talk to actual sheikhs and a3luma who have been studying Islam for YEARS. I’m 10000% sure they’d know more than you do. Shame on you for trying to ruin Prophet Muhammad’s (SAW) reputation.
Dear Dizzy,
I cannot ruin Muhamamd’s reputation. He already did it himself.
All I can do is show what your own sources say about him to Muslims who have never looked it up for themselves, who are willing to be honest.
You’re a perfect example. You dont know what your books say. You only know what your sheikhs and imams tell you!
As for speaking to sheikhs and ulamas, tell me which sheikh can be trusted? Islam allows muslims to lie if it serves to promote Islam.
I’ll give you one example. Shabbir Ally acknowledges there are different qurans in different parts of the world. Does your sheikh agree?
Yasir Qadhi is another one. To Muslim auidences he says quran is unchanged, To his students he says there are variants.
If you are willing to keep the hate aside and accept the knowledge with an open-mind, I suggest you to read those contexts once again and understand the meaning.
I remember a childhood story now. Few blind people went to ‘see’ elephant. One touched the legs and declared elephant is like a piller, while the one touched the tail said elephant is like a broomstick…..
If you don’t try to understand the context you are just another blind man.
Now let’s talk about some other things.
This prophet Muhammad (PBUH) once said, “who can destroy my religion? It started here by me, will be protected by Imam Mahdi and will be completed by Prophet ISA (Jesus) (PBUH).
Prophet Isa PBUH(Jesus) will descent from heaven to earth. The location where the prophet ISA PBUH (Jesus) descent is the Eastern Minaret of Mosque in Damascus. He will be average in height, red and white in colour. His hairs will spread to shoulders, straight, neat and shining as after a bath. On bending his bead, it will seem as if pearls are falling. He will have armour on his body. He will be wearing 2 pieces of cloth light yellow in colour. He will kill dajjal (Dajjal is a fiendish figure in Islamic eschatology masquerading as the promised Messiah. He will appear before the Day of Resurrection) and a great era of peace and harmony will come to the world. Prophet ISA PBUH (Jesus) will marry and have children. He will live 19 years after the marriage. Then Prophet Isa PBUH(Jesus) will pass away and be buried near Prophet Muhammed (PBUH) at masjid nabawi.
As a Muslim I believe this is the future of this world. This religion will be completed by Prophet Isa (PBUH). The place of his descent is been already prepared and decorated and the place of his burial is been already kept vacant for him.
Everything is written and we believe.
I suggest you to read again about prophet Muhammad PBUH.
Thank you.
Dear Ahammed Danish,
It is you Muslims who are blind when it comes to Muhammad. You don’t know about his life.
You only have your feel-good stories that your sheikhs and imams have brainwashed you with.
Let me give you an example. I wrote in the article that Muhamamd tortured people.
I gave references. What context do you want?
Did you know that Muhamamd gouged out the eyes of some men with hot nails?
The context is they stole camels and killed the camel herder. They deserved to be put to death for sure. But why the torture?
After gouging out their eyes, he cut off their arms and legs and threw them into the desert.
I can bet that most Muslims have never heard of such stories about Muhammad. Have you?
Study: https://sunnah.com/nasai:4034
As for your claim that Muhammad said, “who can destroy my religion…”
Muhammad himself said that his religion will fade and disappear in Medina like a serpent crawling into its hole.
See Sahih Muslim 146 and 147.
People only know what their imaams say.
The book says it all, muhammed is a false prophet doing things the devil stands for.
How you protect a pedofile that abuses and tortures people, had sex slaves etc etc. All things satanic people worship.
And it is not christians who says it, your own book says it….
Most things of the islam Are verry beautifull, but the prophet just isnt.
It also came 600 years after jezus died…doesnt make sense. If you believe in that theres 1 god, how you believe in a god that was ‘found’ 1400 years ago.
It were just satanic people that took the bible, give it some twists and a fake prophet and started their own religion.
Most muslims are the most generous people i know but they dont know what they believe in.
The islam is work of the devil, just as catholic.
all this hard work only to lie about your creator..so much waste of potential.
Saarowaar,
This article was about Muhammad and Jesus. Where di I talk about God the Creator?
Is Muhammad your Creator? Is that why you’re offended?
