I am christian and i want to revert to islam

Im a christian that is very well informed about christianity and islam and recently I have this feeling that God is calling me to Islam. I first learned about islam by my close friend that I met at school. I told my mother of my intentions to revert but...

she insists that im being influenced because of my friend but I assured her that im not. What should I do?

follow your heart. Cliche but true.

Do research, get to really know everything about islam, if you like what you see confront your mother again, and dont argue or whine

Hey I'm Muslim if you want any help
I'm a Muslim and I know everything about it

Sorry it's called

I believe you mean convert not revert. That implies that you used to be Muslim. Go with your heart.

Yes, I used the term ''revert'' because it is said that everyone is born muslim but deverge from that path.

I would like to know where it says that everyone is born muslim but deverges from that path.

People say that the Bible is mythology and fiction. If that is what they call the Holy Bible, then the Koran is a far better candidate for being called a mythology and fiction. The Koran was written in 610- 653 AD by a man who claim that an angel had dictated it to him. Then here are some questions that come to mind

1. The Biblical account of Abraham and his sacrifice was written around 1200 BC and the Koranic account was written around 610 -653 AD. Why should one reject an account that is written more closer to the time of Abraham than one that was written thousands of years later?

2. Why should one believe the account on one man as against the account of 40 different people?

3. What is the basis to trust one man about his vision? How do we know if he really saw is true especially when there is differences between what he says and what ancient records state?

4. Mohamed say's Jesus is a prophet but around 8 different authors say that Jesus is God. What is the basis of accepting that one man's account and rejecting 8 other people's when all of them make the same claim of seeing angels?

First of All Jesus is not God, it is not written anywhere, not even in the Bible. Second of the Bible has been changed many times since its original copies, so the message is said to be changed by men. The Quran just states that fact, it the words of God dictated by the angel Gabriel to prophet Mohammad s.a.w. God sent the Torah to Moses and The Gospol to Jesus. The Quran is said to be the final revelation to clear all mistakes from the past.

I agree with afilover4life.

To me religion should be something that benefits YOU. and if converting will do that, then convert.

well alsong as your friend didint pressure you. than just do what you feel is rigt. but also, if your gunna do it, do it right. and be committed. dont just convert to convert. well its all up to you.

okay you need to actually realize what the islam religion is. first you have to remember there are certain things you cant eat. And instead of the bible that you have had all your life you will be using the quaran(koran), which is basically the muslim bible. And what you call god isnt going to b god anymore he/she is going to be Allah. And chances are where you are there are not very many if any muslim mosque(equivelent to a christian church) around at all. so you may b doing most of the religion on your own or with a very small group of people. but most importantly follow your heart dont listen to whateveryone else says that are saying come on buddha come on stay christian and all that. and for the fact I'm an atheist so I'm not trying to pull you anyway I'm just informing you on the islamic cons to christianity.

I believe that we are all born as atheists.

First of you have not addressed any of the issues that I have raised. Then you have some wrong information that you have bought into.

**First of All Jesus is not God, it is not written anywhere, not even in the Bible.***

That Jesus is God is true and it is written everywhere in the Bible. And as I have said there are still a lot more you need to know about Christianity even though you claim to have a good knowledge already.

**Second of the Bible has been changed many times since its original copies, so the message is said to be changed by men.***

That is a wrong accusation and there is no basis for this. If there is proper basis for this accusation against the Bible which freely use I would like to see it.

***The Quran just states that fact, it the words of God dictated by the angel Gabriel to prophet Mohammad s.a.w.***

How do you trust this?

***God sent the Torah to Moses and The Gospol to Jesus.***

True God appointed Moses to write and compile the Torah. But Gospel was not revealed to Jesus. That Jesus is the savior is the Gospel. Jesus never wrote anything. Other people wrote about him.

***The Quran is said to be the final revelation to clear all mistakes from the past. ***

Who says that? If it is the Quran itself that says this then that is circular reasoning.

To all his or her opinion, I have my beliefs and you have yours. Lets leave it at that.

And by the way I do not know if you are christian or not, but in Christianity, Jesus is the SON of God. and not God himself.

Eternal life honestly I think you're the one that needs to learn more about christianity. And for your information in the Quran, God confirms that he sent the Torah to Moses and the Gospel to Jesus. You can choose not to believe it but dont tell me its wrong.

There are many contreversies about Jesus, whether he was a prophet or the son of God.. but never did anyone say that he is God himself.. this has to be clear.

Eternallife, In the Holy Bible, it is mentionned many times that Jesus went to pray to his Lord, God. your story just doesnt stick...

God is the creator, why would he come down to his creation as a human? .. it makes no sense.. Jesus is not God... it cant be any clearer..

***And by the way I do not know if you are christian or not, but in Christianity, Jesus is the SON of God. and not God himself.***

All Christianity believes that Jesus is God and that is what is said in the entire Bible. There are very few denominations in Christianity that does not believe that Jesus is God.

***And for your information in the Quran, God confirms that he sent the Torah to Moses and the Gospel to Jesus.***

My question about Quran was how is it trustworthy. The Quran does not have proper manuscripts. It is various peoples variant record of one man's supposed vision.

***You can choose not to believe it but dont tell me its wrong.***

After saying this in the very next line you are telling me that the Bible is wrong about Jesus.

***God is the creator, why would he come down to his creation as a human?***

Reading the Bible only will give you the answer to this question.

I did read the Bible, I did not find an answer, in the Bible Jesus is the son of God, and not God himself. Explain to me why Jesus prayed to God, our Lord.

There are even mentions of Jesus in the Bible as a prophet.
