New Podcast Let Us Reason - A Christian/Muslim Dialogue

Al Fadi talks to Jay Smith, Oden, and Paul about the SIN.  Oden wrote a book in French called; The Great Secret of Islam.  It talks about the big picture when Islam emerged between the7-9 century.  Paul wrote the Jerusalem thesis.  He says that the Quran is very different book from what Muslims think.  For example when the Quran refers to Al Masjed al haram it really refers to the Jerusalem temple not al Ka'ba in Mecca as Muslim think.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al and Mel continue to add more examples of the Standard Islamic Narrative that was fabricated to match stories from the Bible: 1. Mohammad's dad taking him to the Ka'ba to thank God for him; like Simeon in the Temple giving thanks to God for seeing baby Jesus.  2.  Mohammad's foster mother looking for babies to nurse riding on a donkey; like Mary the mother of Jesus riding on a donkey.  3. The rehash of the story of the transfiguration by saying that when Mohammad went to the temple he found Abraham, Moses and Jesus.  4. The rehash of the ascension; after Mohammad finished his business in Jerusalem, a ladder was brought to him until he reached heaven.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi and Mel point out the problems with the Cira (the biography) according to the Standard Islamic Narrative(SIN). First they point out that the Cira was written by two different authors between a hundred and two hundred years after the death of Mohammad.  Second they point out that the Cira borrows a lot from the Bible, both Old and New testaments; examples; A. Comparing Mohammad to Moses by saying that Mohammad did not enter Jerusalem like Moses never entered the promised land. B. Claiming that Mohammad is a descendant of Abraham through Ishmael. like Jesus was through Isaac.  C. Comparing Mohammad's Mom with Mary the mother of Jesus in Luke 1:43,by saying that a light was shining through her that lit in Syria. and the Cira says that tonight a star has risen; a child named Ahmed; like it is written  in Matthew 2 where the star stayed where the child(Jesus) was.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi says that he is starting a new series on why the standard Islamic narrative is sketchy.  Today he is discussing with brother Mel some of the reasons.  1. The idea that Mohammad was born in the year of the elephant.  2. Mohammad banning the worship of images and idols.  3. The location of Al Masjed Al Haram.  4. Praying at the tombs of Mohammad and others.  5. The idea that Islam is the fastest growing religion.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi continues his conversation with the hosts of Somali Christian TV You Tube channel.  They share that Somalis are afraid to leave Islam because they are afraid to be killed, and we need to pray for them not to fear.  We also need to pray against Somali young men killing X -Muslims and other people in the west.  The hosts of this channel expose the deception of Islam and preach the good news of Jesus, because that is how they came to Christ.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi interviews Shino and Shania, the hosts of Somali Christian TV.  They are Ex Muslims who are reaching out to their fellow Somali people with the message of the good news of salvation.  They are under attack online from Somali Muslims and other Muslims who do not like their message, and also receive death threats, so they keep moving from place to place.  Al Fadi encourage Christians to support, subscribe to their U -Tube channel, and listen to their videos and liking it.  They are seeing fruit of mainly  Somali youth  coming to the Lord.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
