Re: Ifs and Buts in Sunnah
Peace Seminole
I see you caught my bait ... Christians worship Jesus (AS) we can see they do not follow him, those who do follow him do not worship him. Also, I think a major problem is what they say themselves. They will clearly state that they worship Jesus (AS), no Muslims will say that.
What you may have stumbled across is a sign of how people may gradually through time begin to start worshipping a person if we are not careful about how we represent adoration and respect of him. Now ... what of Krishna or Ram?
Christian make no bones about saying that they follow and worship Jesus. They have for centuries. I understand that your interpretation of Christianity and their scriptures are different. Good for you. They have absolutely no problem with it.
But I have asked several Christian friends the past couple days if God loves Jesus or any one else more than all of humanity combined and the resounding answer is NO.
The Christian view is that Jesus was divine, the son of God, a part of God, God in human form. I understand that is not the Muslim view of Muhammad - he was but a mere man. Which makes this excessively over-the-top statement of adoration "if we place the whole universe on one side and the Prophet (saw) on the other side, Allah (swt) loves the Prophet (saw) more than the rest of the whole humanity" even more ridiculous.
