From Islam's perspective, the question asked is far from 'unanswerable'. Islam is unique (to my knowledge) in that its scripture acknowledges previous religions and prophets as being true. "For We assuredly sent amongst every People an apostle, (with the Command), "Serve God, and eschew E...

From Islam's perspective, the question asked is far from 'unanswerable'. Islam acknowledges that Krishna, for example, was a prophet of God - sent to Indian people with a message for them - as the Quran says that Indians were sent prophets and logic tells us that records of their existence should s...

Why Mohammed told He was the last prophet? Rohit: Swami! In Quran, it is stated that Mohammed is not father of any one. Further it is stated there that He is the last Prophet sent by God.

I agree with you that Muhammad (from a Muslim perspective) is clearly the last prophet and messenger from God. Furthermore, Jesus is the Messiah and only Jesus (no one else) will appear for the second coming..........ritish occupation. From a non-Muslim perspective, then, some of these false prophe...

Dattaswami - another thread of long and interesting posts which seem to miss the point by a country mile. A case in point, you say in the first post: Islam is not a new concept to the Hinduism because in Hinduism The philosophy of Madhva says the same and preaches that the Lord Can never become the...

I like the word 'bacterialised' - I think it is the first time I've come across this. However, I don't see in your quote how you infer that Jesus said that there would not be messengers of God after him. Could you explain further. Cheers, Shafique God is impartial and He comes down in humanform in ...

I apologise for not being clearer in my question. Let me try and rephrase it - where does Jesus say that there will not be messengers from God after him? Additionally, if - as you have argued - Muhammad, pbuh, was an incarnation of God, does that not mean that what is written in the Quran is from G...
