76
3 Things you learned about Islam today 2 Things you found interesting 1 Question that you still have about Islam Draw a Venn Diagram comparing and contrasting your religion to Islam REFLECTION
77
Some non-Muslims mistakenly believe that Allah is an "Arab god," a "moon god," or some sort of idol. Allah is the proper name of the One True God, in the Arabic language. 1.MUSLIMS WORSHIP A MOON-GOD
78
In the Qur'an, stories about the life and teachings of Jesus Christ (called 'Isa in Arabic) are abundant. Muslims believe that Jesus was a fully human prophet and not in any way divine himself. 2. MUSLIMS DON’T BELIEVE IN JESUS
79
While Islam is often associated with Arabs, they make up only 15% of the world's Muslim population. The country with the largest population of Muslims is Indonesia. Muslims make up 1/5 of the world's population, with large numbers found in Asia (69%), Africa (27%), Europe (3%) and other parts of the world. 3. MOST MUSLIMS ARE ARABS
80
Most of the ill-treatment that women receive in the Muslim world is based on local culture and traditions, without any basis in the faith of Islam. In fact, practices such as forced marriage, spousal abuse, and restricted movement directly contradict Islamic law governing family behavior and personal freedom. 4. ISLAM OPPRESSES WOMEN
81
Terrorism cannot be justified under any valid interpretation of the Islamic faith. The entire Qur'an, taken as a complete text, gives a message of hope, faith, and peace to a faith community of one billion people. The overwhelming message is that peace is to be found through faith in God, and justice among fellow human beings. Muslim leaders and scholars do speak out against terrorism in all its forms, and offer explanations of misinterpreted or twisted teachings. 5. MUSLIMS ARE VIOLENT, TERRORIST EXTREMISTS
82
Throughout the Qur'an, Muslims are reminded that they are not the only ones who worship God. Jews and Christians are called "People of the Book," meaning people who have received previous revelations from the One Almighty God that we all worship. The Qur'an also commands Muslims to protect from harm not only mosques, but also monasteries, synagogues, and churches -- because "God is worshipped therein." 6. ISLAM IS INTOLERANT OF OTHER FAITHS
83
The word Jihad stems from an Arabic word which means "to strive." Other related words include "effort," "labor," and "fatigue." Essentially Jihad is an effort to practice religion in the face of oppression and persecution. The effort may come in fighting the evil in your own heart, or in standing up to a dictator. Military effort is included as an option, but as a last resort and not "to spread Islam by the sword." 7. ISLAM PROMOTES “JIHAD” TO SPREAD ISLAM BY SWORD AND KILL UNBELIEVERS
84
The Qur'an was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad over a period of two decades, calling people to worship One Almighty God and to live their lives according to this faith. The Qur'an contains stories of Biblical prophets, because these prophets also preached the message of God. Stories are not merely copied, but the oral traditions are referred to in a way that focuses on the examples and teachings that we can learn from them. 8. THE QUR’AN WAS WRITTEN BY MUHAMMAD AND COPIED FROM CHRISTIAN AND JEWISH SOURCES
85
Prayer is a time to stand before God and express faith, give thanks for blessings, and seek guidance and forgiveness. During Islamic prayer, one is modest, submissive and respectful to God. By bowing and prostrating ourselves to the ground, we express our utmost humility before the Almighty. 9. ISLAMIC PRAYER IS JUST A RITUALIZED PERFORMANCE WITH NO HEARTFELT MEANING
86
The early Muslim community did not really have a symbol. During the time of the Prophet Muhammad, Islamic caravans and armies flew simple solid-colored flags (generally black, green, or white) for identification purposes. The crescent moon and star symbol actually pre-dates Islam by several thousand years, and wasn't affiliated with Islam at all until the Ottoman Empire placed it on their flag. 10. THE CRESCENT MOON IS A UNIVERSAL SYMBOL OF ISLAM
87
