Hamdaanii heard he holy apostle telling a delegate: Fear Allah (obey
Allah) and pay attention to what the Quraysh tell you and follow their
examples. I became convinced with what he said and I decided to see
Negus, king of Abysinia, a trusted friend. When I was with Negus, one of
his young sons came and set with us. Negus gave him a tablet and read
from it. I laughed. Negus asked me why I laughed. I said, I laughed
because of what I heard your son reading. Negus said, "I swear by Allah
that is what Allah revealed to Jesus son of Maryam. Certainly the
displeasure of Allah is on that civilization appointing the young as
their leaders." I then recall hearing the same from the holy apostle. The
problem the world is experiencing is as a result of the behavior and
practice of the followers of Muhammad in disbelieving what Allah
revealed to Jesus son of Maryam by appointing young, illiterate and
inexperienced to responsible positions. Bro, I know your direction in this post but I just want to add something else.
Long time ago I made an arrangement to have a debate with Christian missionaries, and back then I almost knew nothing about Christian doctrines other than whats in the known Bible. My friend who heard of my new adventure tried to help me by giving a GOB book (Gospel of Barnabas). He said I would chew those pricks easily with that most convincing proof, the GOB. I read that book few times and I highlight quite few text that I thought were important.
Finally that moment of truth arrived they were in my place to have a mighty debate. In no time I start the firing, with the GOB ammo. You know what was their reply? "We don't belief that book". Oh boy, I have wasted my precious time reading a book that is supposedly Christian gospel, yet it is the muslims that constantly insisting that it is the Gospel.
I have learned my lesson, and experience is still my best teacher. Salaamu alaikum.
