Christians&Muslims: A Letter from the Prophet Muhammad To The Assyrian Christians,what is your responsibility?

norcalislam - not all Christians think that way.

MUHAMMAD, that is a comforting piece of literature you have given. It shows to me that Muhammad (pbuh) really was inspired of God, as I have believed for some time.

My own religion (LDS/Mormon) also believes in prophets and our prophets taught us that Muslims who live up to their responsibilities will go to heaven, just like us. So you see, not all Christian religions are closed-minded about their Muslim brothers. I'm glad to know many good Muslims.

To answer your Question, according to Muhammad (pbuh), my responsibility is to not support any enemy of Islam, and to protect the modesty and safety of Muslim women. I certainly do this to the best of my ability. I've always thought (and said) that the war on Iraq was completely illegal and immoral.

What scares me is this: "If the Nazarenes fail to fulfil these conditions, they have forfeited their right to protection, and the agreement is null and void."

Unfortunately, I live in a country (Australia) where the government has shown itself more friendly to it's own economic interests (and those of its allies) than it is to justice. As a Christian who has always fulfilled the conditions of the agreement you have mentioned, I could easily be killed by a militant Muslim who supposed that, in general, Australians had "forfeited their right to protection."

How could a Muslim know which individuals have lived true to this agreement of peace between brothers and sisters who love Almighty God? If my neighbor supports the enemies of Islam, and his house is bombed, I (an innocent) could be killed. It seems to me that the only way to avoid killing our brothers and sisters (who are loved by God) is to avoid killing anyone.

We can see how "them" and "us" thinking has killed thousands of innocent (non-violent) Muslim Iraqis. I hope that Muslims and Christians all over the world will fight the corruption in politics, but not fight each other with weapons. Indeed, there is a great need that we all "restrain [our] anger and pardon men."

To act in "justice" against "Nazarenes" who have failed to live up to their side of the agreement, is likely to lead to accidental punishment (ie death) of those who have done no wrong.

Peace brother.

If the Muslims would stop persecuting the Christian women by throwing acid in their faces because they are not dressing correctly in Iraq, if they would stop killing Priests in Iraq, if they would stop blowing up Christian Churches in Iraq, I would accept Islam as a peaceful Religion.

Now, I will get thumbs down from Muslims for posting this, I will be their brunt of their anger instead of the few Muslim radicals that are doing these things. Do not get mad at me, get mad at them!

I have studied Islam from Muslims, I know that the radicals are a minority. I pray that the moderate Muslims prevail!

Peace be with you!

First off, let me say that I DO NOT condone the killing of innocent people, of any faith, race, or ethnicity. That being said, how many "Christians" today are true Christians, as were the Assyrians? Not many, I'll wager. The Assyrians in that time (the time of the Prophet Mohammad, pbuh) were his allies, they were not aligned against him in an unjust war against Islam, as many Christians today are. Remember, Christianity has changed to fit "The Times". Now there are homosexuals who are ORDAINED MINISTERS!! Is this the intention of the prophet Jesus? I know that it isn't, Jesus himself said so-"Think not I am come to destroy the laws of Moses, I come not to destroy, but to uphold".The Christians of today deny any allegiance or affiliation with Islam. THEY have broken their covenants of old with Islam, yet we strive still to uphold our end of the agreements. They judge us on the actions of a few, while a minority in their own midst blow up abortion clinics, but they do not hold themselves accountable for the actions of those few, while they hold EVERY MUSLIM accountable for the actions of a Muslim minority. So how does this agreement relate to these people who now call themselves "Christians"?

I think, as with the 'Charter of Privileges to the monks of St. Catherine Monastery in Mt.Sinai.', this is testament to the noble and beautiful character of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of God be upon him صلى الله عليه و سلم ).

I can't speak for Muslims in the current climate, and also people of other beliefs. My hope is that all Muslims will simplify their lives and needs, not cave in to the whims of the ego, unite and not divide based on notions of 'sect' or other bases for division, and look into their heart always and show mercy and kindness as Islam is based on. We can be optimistic for the Ummah. Inshallah I hope that Muslims everywhere will remember Islam is the path of the heart and every verse of the Qur'an but one begins with بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

... 'In the name of Allah, the most beneficient, the most merciful' thus showing us how we are to be merciful ourselves. Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of God be upon him صلى الله عليه و سلم ) was sent as a mercy to all mankind.

"Verily in this (Qur'an) is a Message for people who would (truly) worship Allah. We sent thee not, but as a Mercy for all creatures." [Qur'an 106-107]

I didn't know about this one brother, thanks for sharing :)

Paul’s words make it clear that there are true “inspired expressions” and false ones. He refers to both kinds at 1 Timothy 4:1 when saying that “the inspired utterance [from God’s holy spirit] says definitely that in later periods of time some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to misleading inspired utterances and teachings of demons.” This identifies the source of the false “inspired utterances” as the demons.

As a Muslim to kill or dominate all others. When the mahadi comes kill all who dont convert.
