Liquidation Muslim Christian dialogue by Baagil, H. M NEUF

In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.

I am grateful to Allah for the opportunity to read the manuscript of

Muslim Christian Dialogue and for being asked to write an introduction

to this remarkably eye-opening booklet. Anyone interested in

comparative religion will find in this booklet many surprises that

challenge what many once believed to be absolute truths.

This work by Dr. Hasan M. Baagil reflects his meticulous and

painstaking effort to present his findings clearly, concisely, and

thoroughly. As a result of his study of Christianity and the Bible over a

four-year period, Dr. Baagil, a dedicated Muslim, learned that

Christians differ in their basic beliefs (i.e., the Trinity, the divinity of

Jesus, etc.), that Church doctrine contradicts the Bible numerous times,

and that the Bible even contradicts itself! His conversations with

Christian clergy and laity during this period of study have provided the

impetus for the Muslim Christian Dialogue.

The reader will be surprised to learn that, in the Bible, Jesus (pbuh)

never claimed to be God; that he did not die on the cross; that the

miracles performed by him were also performed by many other

prophets and even by disbelievers; and that Jesus himself prophesied the

advent of the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon both of them.

All of these plus much more are detailed from clear and concise

passages of the Bible.

The question that obviously must be raised after witnessing such clear

contradictions is: "Is the Bible Gods Word?"!

The effort here by Dr. Baagil is not intended to deride Christian people,

and certainly not to mock Jesus and his teachings, as Allah forbids such

activities. The intent is only to point out that false charges,

misrepresentations, and outright lies against Allah and His prophets are

in themselves both deriding and mocking in nature.

Muslim Christian Dialogue also makes clear the Islamic view and

shows how the Quran, revealed to the Prophet Muhammad some six

hundred years after Jesus, peace be upon both of them, corrects the

errors that crept (knowingly or unknowingly) into the message that

Jesus (pbuh) brought. This booklet should prove to be a very valuable

asset to Muslims and Christians, particularly given the interest in

dialogues between the two faiths. God willing, it will be an effective

tool for Muslims in our efforts to invite Christians to Islam. Conversely

Christians should become more aware of what in fact the Bible says and

what Jesus (pbuh) actually taught, as a result of studying this booklet.

Indeed, as a Muslim, the hope is that non-Muslims will accept the truth

and bear witness to the Oneness of Allah and that Muhammad is His

servant and messenger.

May Allah reward Dr. Baagil for his efforts to dispel darkness. May

Allahs peace be upon us all.

Muhammad A. Nubee
