grabeh! isa isa lang pre!
1. yup, tinood na no read no right si prophet muhammad(SWA) until the first revelation of quran by angel jibreel in his early 40's.
2. the quran did not came out from his mouth but thru the reveletion of angel jibreel as ordered by ALLAH (SWA).
3. Islam parehas sad na sa mga christian na daghan kaayo ug denominations...cge sad na sila ug debate until now pero ang the majority group is the sunnis followed by shi'ites.
4. the original quran is the one that revealed by angel jibreel to muhammad and is being used by the sunnis. after the deat of muhammad, daghan nigawas mga grupo sa mga muslim naghimo ug kaugalingon nilang quran. parehas sad na sa bible ang quran na naa sad lain laing versions.
5. dire saudi bawal man mag debate about religion. dakpon ka sa pulis.
Kuyawa pood na pre...pariho ra jud ang islam sa christianity with some differences then. The breaking of the Shii from the Sunnis is the same as the great schism of the Holy Church to two sects: the Roman Catholic Church and the Orthodox Church. And the little sects in islam--rather similar to the protestant churches and its differences in the Catholic Church.
Also pre...amazed jud ko sa Q'uran kay..they talk alot about Mother Mary jud!! It is very similar to Catholic doctorine--jud kai daghang references to Mother Mary--and very unique jud na kai baji man na si Mother Mary--pero in the Quran--it seems as if she is regarded almost as a prophet/saint.
Naa kaning excerpt that i read, which really strengthened my own faith jud:
"So her Lord accepted her [Maryam] with good acceptance."
(Quran 3:37). Quran verses 3:37 continue .. "So her Lord accepted her with good acceptance. He made her grow in a good manner and put her under the care of Zachariya. Every time he entered Al-Mihrab (the praying place) to visit her, he found her supplied with sustenance [food]. He said:
'O Maryam! From where have you got this?' She said:
'This is from Allah. Verily, Allah provides sustenance who He wills, without limit.' "
So Mary was accepted by God, and was brought up in a good manner after she was put under the care of Zachary. Through her devotion and righteous upbringing and the prayer from her mother, Mary became the best woman to ever live as depicted in the Quran in the verses 3:42:
"And (remember) when the angels said: 'O Maryam (Mary)! Verily, Allah (God) has chosen you, purified you (from polytheism and disbelief), and chosen you above the women of the world (of her lifetime).' "

"And mention in the Book, Maryam [i.e. mention, O Mohammed, in the Quran the story of Mary], when she withdrew from her family to a place facing east. She placed a screen from them; then We sent to her our angel (Jibrael, or Gabriel), and he appeared before her in the form of a man in full human form. She said:
'I seek refuge with The Most Beneficent [God] from you, if you do fear Him.' (The angel) said:
'I am only a Messenger from your Lord, (to announce) to you the gift of a righteous son.' She said:
'How can I have a son, when no man has touched me, nor am I unchaste?' He (the angel) said:
'So (it will be), your Lord said: 'That is easy for Me: And to appoint him as a sign to mankind and a mercy from Us (from God)', and it is a matter (already) decreed (by God).' " (Quran 19:16-21)

The Miracle.
And then, miraculously, Mary becomes pregnant. The emotional story of her pregnancy follows:
"So she conceived him, and she withdrew with him to a far place . And the pains of childbirth drove her to the trunk of a date-palm. She said:
'Would that I had died before this, and had been forgotten and out of sight!' Then a call unto her from bellow, said:
'Grieve not! Your Lord has provided a water stream under you; And shake the trunk of the date-palm towards you, it will let fall fresh ripe dates upon you. So eat and drink and be glad, and if you see any human being, say:
'Verily! I have vowed a fast unto the Most Beneficent so I shall not speak to any human being this day.' " (Quran 19:22-26)
From these versus one mentally pictures Mary, driven out of town, out of sight to Bethlehem valley 4-6 miles from Jerusalem, in the pain of labor, and in fear of what is going to happen to her. It is her first child, she has no husband. What will her people, the Jews, say? What will they do? How will she react? With all that, she wishes that she was dead, but the God who gave her the miracle, the God to Whom she worshipped, to Whom she devoted her life, did not forsake her. A voice came from beneath her, soothing and comforting her, and guiding her. And when she gave birth, the voice instructed her not to speak or explain, but make a vow of silence and everything will workout.
"Then she brought him (the baby) to her people, carrying him. They said:
'O Maryam! Indeed you have brought a thing which is greatly evil! O sister of Haron (i.e. O you who we consider the like of Haron, who was a pious man at the time of Mary)! Your father was not a bad man (adulterous), nor was your mother an unchaste woman.' Then she pointed to him (to the baby). They said:
'How can we talk to one who is a child, in the cradle?' " (Quran 19:27-29)
Mary gives birth to the child, and takes him back to her village. And there Mary meets the Jews. Upon seeing her with her baby, they are struck. In their eyes, she has done a heinous crime. Their argument was: 'How could you do something so evil! We always considered you a model person of piety, and you come from a pious family -- known and respected!'. But Mary obeys the commands of her Lord. She is quiet and points to the baby.
