Transcripts
Christian
I consider Jesus a prophet but he's the
prophet of the one God there's not
several so
as a Christian I worship Allah
how many have read the Quran
a minority certainly
well
I don't want to shame you but I do
I think we should all be ashamed you
know we're we're throwing our weight
around in a world where almost a quarter
of the population are
Muslims and not to know
you know how how can you say
the Islamic state is a false construct
if you don't know what true Islam is
this book I
published
is the product of my shame
I was embarrassed
after 9 11 I was talking with a group of
friends academic friends
and we were wondering you know is this
really a an Islamic
event
the 9 11 attack
and at some point
people ask well who here has read the
Quran
none of us happened
uh
and a friend of mine said not even you
Gary I thought you were a student of
religion yeah and I said yeah that's the
problem I'm I'm totally
ashamed uh and so I went and had been
trying to repair that
stupidity ever since
in the Quran
they asked
Allah through Muhammad
how they should pray and here's here's
one of many Creeds in the Quran
we believe in God
and in what was sent down to us
and what was sent down to Abraham
Ishmael Isaac Jacob and the 12 tribes
and what was given to Moses Jesus and
all the prophets by the Lord
we make no distinction between any of
them and we devote ourselves to him in
all of them
that's a very inclusive Creed
Judaism sometimes say that the chosen
people are the circumcised
and narrow Believers in Christianity
sometimes say that the
chosen people are the baptized
but the Quran says God's chosen people
are all the monotheists
from the beginning of
the creation
Adam is the first prophet
because
he falls as in Genesis but he repents
and God makes him the first prophet the
Covenant with the Lord
Allah says he has sent Messengers
at every stage of creation all of his
human creatures are given a message from
him
he said I I give it in the language that
they use
I gave it in Hebrew for the Jewish
Covenant
I gave it in Greek for the Christian
Covenant and I gathered in Arabic for
the Islamic Covenant
but they're all my people
and when we think of the
succession of prophets
they're given great praise
Muhammad
Praises Moses
uh
in some ways the most important process
before Muhammad
though they're all
directly from God
it's Jesus
Jesus has given a bigger
accreditation
than other prophets
John the Baptist is given made a profit
so that he can prophesy Jesus
Mary his mother
is the only woman named in the Quran
no wife of Muhammad is named there's no
Adam and Eve there's adamant spouse
but Mary
is not only
named
she's made sinless
she conceives
Jesus in virgin birth she is
tremendously honored one can only
hope that
more people will
use freedom to do things like read the
Quran rather than hate them Muslims
