Book Description
What happens when you give up everything to pursue Christ? This is a fascinating true story of a Muslim woman who moved to the United States from Pakistan, lived in a Muslim community in California and then shocked everyone by thwarting the tradition of arranged marriage by marrying an American. She was disowned for that action, but then was reconciled with her family when she agreed to have a Muslim and a Christian wedding ceremony. After the events of 9/11, she decided to delve deeper into her faith by reading the Quran and praying to Allah. When she encountered the chapter on Jesus (Isa in the Surah Maryam), she couldn't figure out why this prophet was so different. She then prayed to God to give her the truth and show her the way. He pointed to One: Jesus Christ. This book addresses her journey and stresses the importance of sharing the Good News of Christ. Mona lived in the United States for 25 years without an authentic witness to the pure Gospel. She shares how the Hand of God reached out and closed the gap between the East and the West.

Defying Jihad
Author: Esther Ahmad
Publisher: NavPress
ISBN: 149642591X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
If you truly love Allah, you will die for him. Your death will mean much reward for you and your family in heaven. Only death will prove your love. It was the final test. A chance to win not only the love of Allah, but the love of her father—something she had never been able to earn. Esther took a deep breath and raised her hand in the air. At the age of eighteen, she had just volunteered to become a suicide bomber. Defying Jihad is the true story of a girl growing up under radical Islamic rule, trained to believe her ultimate purpose was to serve Allah by dying as a jihadist. But two nights before she was to leave forever, she had a dream . . . one that would change the course of her destiny. Against all odds, Esther became a follower of Jesus—even though leaving Islam meant her death sentence. But rather than kill her immediately, Esther’s furious father challenged her to a series of public debates with Muslim scholars: the Bible versus the Quran. If Esther won, she might yet survive. But if the Muslim clerics won, Esther must renounce her Christian faith. For an entire month—if she lived that long—Esther would be brought before the mob daily to defend her newfound faith. Would God give her the words to argue against Muslim leaders, former friends, and even her own family? Defying Jihad is an amazing story of a woman prepared to surrender all for Jesus—and whose life transformed from terror to overwhelming love.

The Islamic Jesus
Author: Mustafa Akyol
Publisher: St. Martin's Press
ISBN: 1250088704
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
“A welcome expansion of the fragile territory known as common ground.” —The New York Times When Reza Aslan’s bestseller Zealot came out in 2013, there was criticism that he hadn’t addressed his Muslim faith while writing the origin story of Christianity. In fact, Ross Douthat of The New York Times wrote that “if Aslan had actually written in defense of the Islamic view of Jesus, that would have been something provocative and new.” Mustafa Akyol’s The Islamic Jesus is that book. The Islamic Jesus reveals startling new truths about Islam in the context of the first Muslims and the early origins of Christianity. Muslims and the first Christians—the Jewish followers of Jesus—saw Jesus as not divine but rather as a prophet and human Messiah and that salvation comes from faith and good works, not merely as faith, as Christians would later emphasize. What Akyol seeks to reveal are how these core beliefs of Jewish Christianity, which got lost in history as a heresy, emerged in a new religion born in 7th Arabia: Islam. Akyol exposes this extraordinary historical connection between Judaism, Jewish Christianity and Islam—a major mystery unexplored by academia. From Jesus’ Jewish followers to the Nazarenes and Ebionites to the Qu’ran’s stories of Mary and Jesus, The Islamic Jesus will reveal links between religions that seem so contrary today. It will also call on Muslims to discover their own Jesus, at a time when they are troubled by their own Pharisees and Zealots.

Languages : en
Pages : 100
Book Description
Muslims believe that Jesus Christ - the one called Isa Ibn Maryam in the Qur'an - was just a mere prophet. Many Muslims are completely unaware that their Qur'an suggests - quite often - that the Messiah is God.Muslims believe that Jesus Christ is not the Son of God Almighty and He is not the way to the Almighty God, but Allah is God Almighty. Their main difficulty is that how can God Almighty whom does not marry have a Son. A carful study of the Quran shows and proves it is true that Jesus Christ is the son of God Almighty and not only that, but salvation is also through Christ Jesus alone and the only way that one can worship and serve the Almighty God is trough Jesus Christ. The interesting thing is that the Quran teaches this.
