    Their god lives on the 7th floor of heaven. He has nothing to do with humans. Their Jesus is just another prophet like Muhammad, so they have no hope for salvation. They believe that through works they will go to heaven and we know that not to be true.

    One must first comprehend that allah is not jesus(isa). So to ask if they have a relationship with GOD, you must be aware that it is not jesus. Basically, allah is the lord that made the air you breathe and your body that is dependent upon it. No, jesus did not create that situation nor is capable of such a thing. Then you have creationists that say that it all evolved. I think things are a little too perfectly formed to be just one BIG coincidence. Now that I gotten that out of the way. Yes, muslims have a relationship with allah. Just as how christians have a relationship with jesus. Just as how wiccans have a relationship with the triple goddess. Just as Rastafarians have a relationship with jah. Each relationship with GOD is different. And to say that GOD does not speak is the same as saying that GOD is limited. So I guess you can take it from there and form your own conclusion, which I am more than sure you have already made before posting this inquiry. PEACE!

    Yes Allah has said: "You walk to me I will run to you...You run to me I will fly to you" to come close to Allah firstly we should start completing what is obligatory these are the 5 pillars of Islam (Shahadah-decleration of faith, Salaah- 5 daily prayers, Siyam- Fasting in Ramadhan, Zakat- giving money to charity and Hajj-the pilgrimage to Mekkah). So if a Muslims didn’t do any of these then if he then tries to read Salaah (prayer) and seeks knowledge on how to pray and then slowly starts praying then he/she is walking to Allah. If a person starts salaah slowly and maybe another pillar such as Siyam (fasting) then he she is running to Allah. Just basically the more good deeds you do the closer Allah will be. So if Allah is closer to you He will answers your prayers help you in life and guide you to success. If a Muslim is a good and strong Muslim then he is already got a strong relationship with Allah.

    Not all of our prayers will be answered if they were then life would just be too easy, life is a test and Allah has said that everyone will go through bad and good. When we are going through something bad we should be patient and ask Allah’s forgiveness, when were going through a good life we should thank Allah continuously. Our lives will be good then bad then good then bad, it will always change.

    And yes our prayers do be answered, as other Muslim brothers and sisters have tolled me about a lot of things they prayed for and gotten. Well then I tolled them they are now going through a good life soon you will be going through a bad life a unhappy life a life that you don’t like. So be prepared, Allah will test us throught out our lives and He will keep testing us but He wont give us a test that is to hard for us to pass. The more tests we pass the closer we become to Him.

    The first and greatest teaching of Islam is proclaimed by the Shahada: "La Ilaha illa-l-lah, Muhammadun rasulu-l-lah." ("There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is the apostle of Allah.") It is this very confession, which, once uttered sincerely, makes one a real Muslim.

    For a Muslim, Allah is one (Wahid), and has no partners, no equals. According to the Quran, Sura 28;88, it is stated: "And cry not unto any other god along with Allah. There is no god save Him." Thus, Allah is totally other. He created and maintains the world, and since Allah is one, no one else can share even an atom of His Divine power and authority. Islam makes it clear that Allah has no son, no father, no relative, and no associates.

    In the Hadiths, Muhammad is reported to have related the ninety-nine names of Allah, to express some of His attributes. A number of these are: that He is merciful (that he provides man with food, drink, the means of movement, and all the necessities of life), that He is all-powerful (omnipotent), that He is wise and all-knowing (omniscient), and that He is eternal (no beginning and no end).

    For Muslims relationship with God is very personal, intimate, indeed. There is real communication between God and his creatures. To speak to Him, a Muslim prays. To hear Him speak, a Muslim reads the Quran.

    And seek help with patience and prayer, and this indeed is hard except for the humble in spirit,

    O ye who believe, seek help through perseverance and Prayer; surely, Allah is with those who patiently persevere

    And observe prayer and pay the Zakat; and whatever good you send on before you for yourselves, you shall find it with Allah; surely, Allah sees all that you do

    The only way that God speaks to us in these times is through his WORD which is non other than the HOLY BIBLE. There is no other way until the first ressurection. WORDS WORDS WORDS....words is how everything was created. If you believe in God you must believe in his word. His word is the BIBLE.

    If your interested in learning exactly what you must do to be saved you should seek it out from the bible. This web site might help you as well.

    i don't know if muslim and islam are the same religion, but somewhere in between jesus is not worshipped. therefore, they can't really worship God without worshipping jesus. 'cause the only way to the Father is through the Son.
