Good post. Hopefully no one will take this the wrong way, I know some will though, pure Islam is very close to holiness Pentecostalism. That being said, on the subject of prayer, Islamic prayer is very ritualistic and that is putting it mildly. They think it if you dont do certain things, your salah (prayer) will no be accepted. See them pointing their index finger and moving it up and down towards the end of their prayers as an example of this. Also you have to pray in Arabic according to them. Even though there is no Quranic mandate for this. I often wonder and ask muslims online, if GOD really gets praise/joy/pleasure from them repeating and doing the same prayers 5 times a day. I usually get nothing but super defensive answers. I enjoy reading about Islam.

O and the Muslims believe in the Psalms of David and the gospels in I am not mistaken. One other thing I dont understand about them, is that they are to make no distinction between all of the prophets of GOD per the Quran, yet they follow Muhammed and believe that his Sunnah(life) is the source of all spiritual law. Seems contradictory.

Islamic prayers remind me of Catholics with their prayer beads

Re: What I'm Learning From Islam:
 

Right.

Pentecostals seem to have more of a relationship with GOD. I have never heard a Muslims say they have a realtionship with GOD. I have never heard one say they love GOD. Its seems that most of them have a respect, awe, and fear of GOD and thats it.

Re: What I'm Learning From Islam:
 

Why do you need two different threads with the same topic?

Re: What I'm Learning From Islam:
 

Muslims deny Jesus Christ.
That should tell you something.
End of story.

They are lost like all others who deny that Jesus is the only way to the father.
They are a lost cult, no ifs or buts about it.

End of story....end of a useless "religious" discussion.

They kill Christians. They execute other Muslims who don't worship like they do.
