I once happened to chat with a Pauline Lamb who was tattooed on his forehands and arms. I was thumping the Bible book Leviticus those days. My Christian Lamb had lots of questions on Islamic ways of life. He asked me why beard? Since I was head-on into the Leviticus, I asked him why not? Leviticus 21:5 "'They shall not shave their heads, neither shall they shave off the corners of their beards, nor make any cuttings in their flesh. Then I asked him if a woman likes a man with his hairs or not. He confessed A hairy man is more a turn-on for women than a smooth ass Then I told him that Muslims want to follow the Prophet Mohammed s.a.w and even in his appearance. Sahih Bukhari, Narrated Ibn `Umar : Allh's Messenger said, Do not do what the pagans do, cut the moustaches short and leave the beard (as it is). (7:781O.B) Having seen his picture on the yahoo profile, I asked my Christian chat friend, why do you have tattoos on your arms? Do you dare disobey the Bible? Leviticus 19:28 "'You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor tattoo any marks on you. I am Yahweh. He was amazed at my quotes from the Leviticus, he asked, why do Muslims read the Bible? I replied him, in general Muslims seldom read Bible, but I do read out of the curiosity and the willingness to discuss my religion with them openly. He asked why Muslims slaughter animals with cruelty? They do not seem to cut off the head or shoot in the head to kill the animal; instead they cause it to die very painfully? Why this barbaric deeds to eat? As we understand the only way of Halaal Zibah meat is by slaughter with the Islamic rites. Why do we Muslims do that? The answer is very simple and scientific. The cutting of the iota from the neck of the animal extracts most of the blood from the flesh, and it renders the animals body senseless while the blood is drained during its death, this is proved by the scientists. On the contrary, shooting the animal in the head kills it instantly without draining the blood completely from its body and is known to be utterly painful for the dying animal [See my paper Halaal]. However, draining of the blood from the animals body is also required in the Bible. Leviticus 19:26 "'You shall not eat any meat with the blood still in it; neither shall you use enchantments, nor practice sorcery. Somehow my chatter thought that I was too old enough, much older than my age, he hutched Oldie, where do you get these quotes so instantly; are you a Bible thumper? Or do you have some motivations behind Chatting with me He did guessed my intentions clearly, though not wisely, but is definitely a curious lamb! Respect for the elderly folks is not a part of the Pauline world, as we can see that these Pauline flocks do not seems to respect the older ones in their circles. An Oldie is supposed

to be a useless and worthless one; I decided to shut-up this youngie! O posted Leviticus 19:32 "'You shall rise up before the gray head, and honor the face of an old man, and you shall fear your God. I am Yahweh. Do you dare disobey the bible...? He never replies. Then I said, Young man, you have to respect your elders, as per the Bible, do you do that? Annoyed by my biblical quotes for everything, he yelled, Why do Muslims stone to death the criminals on open public, is that Humane enough? I informed our half informed lamb: it is sad that it is not practiced vigorously now-a-days; else there wont be any more rapists or would-be rapists left free to rape more. We see the Rapephenomenon on rampage in USA. In the year 2003, there were 6841 reported and confirmed cases of rape in one city of USA [Big-Apple, NY Times Crime Survey Report Jan 21 2004]. But in entire Saudi Arabia, there were only 7 reported cases in the whole year [My count from Arab News], why was that so less? The Law ! The Law of the God that is enforced here makes it clear that stern hands of the law governs, even if it comes to stoning. In the Bible we see the penalty of adultery is to Burn to death, how humane is that? How humane is to leave the rapist free once the paltry sentence of one or two years is over, he goes forth, as a true-adventurer, aimlessly raping more! How sane is that? Let us read what the Bible says about the punishment for the adulteress [not the adulterer, only the adulteress]. Leviticus 21:9 "'The daughter of any priest, if she profanes herself by playing the prostitute, she profanes her father: she shall be burned with fire. What does the Bible tells us about stoning of people, let us read more: Leviticus 20:1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 20:2 "Moreover, you shall tell the children of Israel, 'Anyone of the children of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners in Israel, who gives any of his seed to Molech; he shall surely be put to death. The people of the land shall stone him with stones. 20:3 I also will set my face against that person, and will cut him off from among his people because he has given of his seed to Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name. 20:4 If the people of the land all hide their eyes from that person, when he gives of his seed to Molech, and don't put him to death; 20:5 then I will set my face against that man, and against his family [I dont understand why against his family?], and will cut him off, and all who play the prostitute after him, to play the prostitute with Molech, from among their people. EZEKIEL 023|044` Yet they went in to her, as they go in to a woman that playeth the harlot: so went they in to Aholah and to Aholibah, the lewd women.045 And the righteous men, they shall judge them after the manner of adulteresses, and after the manner of women that shed blood; because they are adulteresses, and blood is in their hands. 046 For thus saith the Lord God; I will bring up a company upon them, and will give them to be removed and spoiled.047 And the company shall stone them with stones, and dispatch them with their swords; they shall slay their sons and their daughters, and burn up their houses with fire. 048 Thus will I cause lewdness to cease out of the land, that all women may be taught not to do after your lewdness.

My Pauline believer was silent for a while, before he boasted about slavery. He asked Why Mohammed did had slaves? Most of these programmed Pauline tamed flocks have very absurd idea about Islam, all they learn about Islam is from the churches or any anti-Muslim web site that corrupts their mindsets. It is very unfortunate that they are seldom open to such discussions; however, this yahoo buddy was open to discussion. Infact, Mohammed s.a.w abolished the slavery from the face of the Arab world, but who corrupts the minds of the Christians about the slavery in Islam? The answer is very clear, either the Bible or its preachers! Let us first see what the Bible has in context of Slavery... is it allowed or not? Leviticus 22:10 "'No stranger shall eat of the holy thing: a foreigner living with the priests, or a hired servant, shall not eat of the holy thing. 22:11 But if a priest buys a slave, purchased by his money, he shall eat of it; and such as are born in his house, they shall eat of his bread. 22:12 If a priest's daughter is married to an outsider, she shall not eat of the heave offering of the holy things. 22:13 But if a priest's daughter is a widow, or divorced, and has no child, and has returned to her father's house, as in her youth, she may eat of her father's bread: but no stranger shall eat any of it. However, the western world, the elimination of the native resident red-Indians of USA, the slavery of the Black Race followed by the extermination of the Red-Indians of USA is a standing example of the slavery system of the west. However, in Islamic era during the early period of Prophet Mohammed the slavery was a norm, but was abolished by the Noble Prophet of Islam, Mohammed s.a.w. Sahih Bukhari on Manumission of Slavery, Narrated Ab Huraira : The Prophet said, Whoever frees a Muslim slave, Allh will save all the parts of his body from the (Hell) Fire as he has manumitted the body parts of the slave. (3:693O.B) Slavery system that was pre-existent in the Arab world came to a grinding halt in the Islamic world after the announcement of the Hadith above. The slavery Manumission was a tedious act, the companions of the Prophet Mohammed s.a.w slowly and gradually worked on the orders of their leader, until it was done away with. Sahih Bukhari, CHAPTER 4. If somebody says to his slave that he is for Allh; and by that he intends to manumit him (the slave is manumitted). And the witness for manumission. Narrated (Qais) : When Ab Huraira accompanied by his slave set out intending to embrace Islm they lost each other on the way. The slave then came while Ab Huraira was sitting with the Prophet . The Prophet said, O Ab Huraira! Your slave has come back. Ab Huraira said, Indeed, I would like you to witness that I have manumitted him. That happened at the time when Ab Huraira recited (the following poetic verse): `What a long tedious tiresome night! Nevertheless, it has delivered us from the land of Kufr (disbelief).' (3:707O.B)

My Christians discussion partner asked me a very humble question Can you tell me why Muslims animal sacrifice? Animal sacrifice has been the tradition of most of the religious people, almost in all the religions there is some or the other type of Animal sacrifice, not to mention, the human sacrifice in the Bible and the eastern cultural religion like Hinduism. In Islam, especially during the pilgrimage of Hajj and Omrah, the Quran instructs the believer as below: Al Quran, Al-Baqarah 02:196. And perform properly (i.e. all the ceremonies according to the ways of Prophet Muhammad SAW), the Hajj and 'Umrah (i.e. the pilgrimage to Makkah) for Allh. But if you are prevented (from completing them), sacrifice a Hady (animal, i.e. a sheep, a cow, or a camel, etc.) such as you can afford, and do not shave your heads until the Hady reaches the place of sacrifice. And whosoever of you is ill or has an ailment in his scalp (necessitating shaving), he must pay a Fidyah (ransom) of either observing Saum (fasts) (three days) or giving Sadaqah (charity - feeding six poor persons) or offering sacrifice (one sheep). Then if you are in safety and whosoever performs the 'Umrah in the months of Hajj, before (performing) the Hajj, (i.e. Hajj-at-Tamattu' and Al-Qirn), he must slaughter a Hady such as he can afford, but if he cannot afford it, he should observe Saum (fasts) three days during the Hajj and seven days after his return (to his home), making ten days in all. This is for him whose family is not present at Al-Masjid-al-Harm (i.e. non-resident of Makkah). And fear Allh much and know that Allh is Severe in punishment. Even in Christianity, a special term known as Burnt offering is used for animal sacrifice. Let us see what the Bible has in context of animal sacrifice. Leviticus 22:26 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 22:27 "When a bull, or a sheep, or a goat, is born, then it shall remain seven days with its mother; and from the eighth day and thenceforth it shall be accepted for the offering of an offering made by fire to Yahweh. 22:28 Whether it is a cow or ewe, you shall not kill it and its young both in one day. Leviticus 22:29 "When you sacrifice a sacrifice of thanksgiving to Yahweh, you shall sacrifice it so that you may be accepted. 22:30 It shall be eaten on the same day; you shall leave none of it until the morning. I am Yahweh. After having answered his queries, I asked one simple question to my Pauline believer, again from the Bible, Why is the divorced woman unfit for remarriage? He did not answer at all. Leviticus 21:7 "'They shall not marry a woman who is a prostitute, or profane; neither shall they marry a woman divorced from her husband: for he is holy to his God. 21:8 You shall sanctify him therefore; for he offers the bread of your God: he shall be holy to you: for I Yahweh, who sanctify you, am holy. Why not? It is to say that once she is divorced she has to become a public property or what? Why do Muslim calls Abraham as a Muslim and a friend of God? Do we not know Islam started with Mohammed?

It is a pity that most of the Pauline flocks do not understand the meaning of the words Islam and Muslim, I noted that they dont even feel the difference of the two terms. Islam literally means Submission of ones will to God, Muslim is a person who submits his will to God. Abraham pbuh never revolted against his God; instead he always submitted his will to his God. Allah [God] clarifies this in the Noble Quran thus: 02:135. And they say, "Be Jews or Christians, then you will be guided." Say (to them, O Muhammad Peace be upon him ), "Nay, (We follow) only the religion of Ibrhim (Abraham), Hanifa [Islmic Monotheism, i.e. to worship none but Allh (Alone)], and he was not of Al-Mushrikn (those who worshipped others along with Allh)." We [Muslims] call him the friend of God, because he was, Quran clarifies it thus: 04:125. And who can be better in religion than one who submits his face (himself) to Allh (i.e. follows Allh's Religion of Islmic Monotheism); and he is a Muhsin (a good-doer). And follows the religion of Ibrhim (Abraham) Hanifa (Islmic Monotheism - to worship none but Allh Alone). And Allh did take Ibrhim (Abraham) as a Khalil (friend). However, it is very interesting to read the bible on this Chapter. RSV James Chapter 2:22 You see that faith was active along with his works, and faith was completed by works, [23] and the scripture was fulfilled which says, "Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness"; and he was called the friend of God. [24] You see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone. Why do Muslims utter a word Inshallah [He said insalallah though] when intending to do something? Let me translate that word for you, the word Inshallah means if Allah wills. We are instructed in the Noble Quran to say these words when we intend to do a thing in future. It is a measure of Piety of the person and his willingness to the will of God almighty. The Noble Quran, Al-Kahf 18:23-24 And never say of anything, "I shall do such and such thing tomorrow." Except (with the saying), "If Allh will!" And remember your Lord when you forget and say: "It may be that my Lord guides me unto a nearer way of truth than this." Even Christians are supposed to say that. Interestingly enough the Bible also says that. Let us see what is in the Bible in that context: RSV James Chapter 4:13 Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and get gain"; [14] whereas you do not know about tomorrow. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. [15] Instead you ought to say, IIff tthe Lord wiilllls , we shall live and we shall do this or that. [16] As it is, you boast in he Lord w s your arrogance. All such boasting is evil. [17] Whoever knows what is right to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin. O my Christian readers, do you have any sense of reason? Do they have any thinkingheads? Does God stop you from thinking reasonably? Or would you like to regret in the hereafter.

They will say, "If only we had really listened and used our intellect, we would not have been Companions of the Blaze." (Noble Quran, Surat al-Mulk: 10) or would the followers of St. Paul like to regret! O my Christian readers! Respond to your Lord before a Day comes from Allah [ ,]which cannot be turned back. On that Day you will have no hiding-place and no means of denial. (Noble Quran, Surat ash-Shura: 47) Except for those who are steadfast and do right actions. They will receive forgiveness and a large reward. (Surah Hud, 11) I invite you, O my Christian readers, to use your intellect and be a true believer, a truthful submitter to your and my God Allah [ .] May Allah [ ] bestow upon you his mercy and help you understand the fallacies of the Christian Pauline religion of Saul of Tarus...Ameen, ya Rabbiziljalaal. Allah [ ] makes it very evident for you "W e shall show them Our signs on the horizons and within themselves until it will become clear to them that it is the Truth. Does it not suffice that your Lord is Witness over all things?" The noble Qur'an, Fussilat(41):53. "Verily! this Qur'an guides to that which is most upright, and gives glad tidings to the believers who work deeds of righteousness that theirs will be a great reward" The noble Qur'an, Al-Isra(17):9 Color codes in this document: Red italics are the words of the present day bible KJV / RSV.
