Pakistan and New Orleans Victims: Is God angry with them?

The Muslim people is now facing the wrath of the one and true God, the God of Abraham. The God of Abraham is now showing his dissatisfaction.

There is more to come.

It started with the earthquake of last December and now in Pakistan. Get right with the one and only true God, or face destruction.

Muslims, I say to you find Jesus and let him help you.

Your false God is weak and can do nothing for you but give you pain.

Tim House (as written in the email address)

Editor:

Dear Tim,

Your letter shows lack of basic knowledge about Islam and Muslims. It's been published her with this reply to educate you and anyone else about Islam.

Allah is the name of God as He described Himself in the Holy Qur'an. You can also find it in the Bible as ilah. The definite article in Arabic is Al. Thus, Allah means the God. Allah is the same God who created the universe and sent his messengers to guide humanity. He is the One who created Adam, and sent messages to humanity through Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus Christ, and Muhammed, Peace of God be upon all of them. Islam is the religion of God, revealed to humanity since the beginning. All these messengers of God and their righteous followers are considered Muslims.

For Muslims, Jesus Christ is a great messenger of God, who was created by a miracle of God, without a father. He healed the sick by touching and messaging them. He even brought some dead people back to life with power from God. He and his mother, Virgin Mary, are glorified by Muslims more than you can imagine. Just read Chapters III & IXX of the Holy Qur’an.

For Muslims, Jesus Christ is the Messiah. He is alive in Heavens, waiting for permission from God to return to Earth. When he returns, Muslims will be on his side against the anti-Christ and his followers.

With regard to natural disasters, are you saying also that people of New Orleans and the rest of Louisiana, Alabama, and Mississippi, who were killed or devastated by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, worship the false God because they were victims of natural disasters? They are Christians. Aren’t they?

If you think again about the conflict between the US and the Arab and Islamic world, you'll find that it has nothing to do with religion. It's a secular conflict, like the ones before throughout the 20th century, including WWI, WWIi, Korea, Vietnam, 1991 Gulf War, and the current wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. They were and are capitalistic wars launched for control over resources, territories, and people.

Muslims know Jesus very well. He is the Prince of Peace. Peace was the essence of his message to humanity:

Finally, Tim, the three countries which were all hit by the earthquake (Pakistan, India, and Afghanistan) are all allies to the US.

 


 

Pray for the Victims of the Earthquake

The MCM has been deeply saddened by the news that Saturday's powerful earthquake has devastated regions in Pakistan, India and Afghanistan causing a very large number of fatalities, injuries and destructions.

Initial reports estimate more than 30,000 killed and 180,000 people believed injured according to Pakistan Major-General Shaukat Sultan. The death tool expected to rise between 200,000 to 500,000 peoples. The small cities after cities are completely destroyed and reliefs could not reach to those area due to broken bridges and roads.

The Muslim Council of Montreal urges Muslims everywhere to make special duaa in this holy month of Ramadan for the victims of the quake, and to donate generously to help them at this difficult time.

The Muslim Council of Montreal is organising a relief fund to collect donations and zakat to help the victims. Please donate and make special appeal to Muslims at your organisation to help their Muslim sisters and brothers who were victimised by this devastating earthquake,

Salam Elmenyawi

 


We need a poll of the people: Democrat, Repubilcan or Independent

Would someone please poll the American people to see if they identify themselves as Republican, Democrat or Independent? I want to know where we are at these days.

My intuition tells me most people are currently identifying themselves as "Independent."

I want to know the truth.

P.S. If you know of such a poll, I'd like to know about it. All I can find is a poll about whether the people approve of the Republicans/Democrats in Congress. Of course, they approve of neither party.
