Just came across this verse from the Qur’an (29:46), which I think speaks for itself:
وَلَا تُجَادِلُوا أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ إِلَّا بِالَّتِي هِيَ أَحْسَنُ إِلَّا الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا مِنْهُمْ وَقُولُوا آمَنَّا بِالَّذِي أُنزِلَ إِلَيْنَا وَأُنزِلَ
إِلَيْكُمْ وَإِلَهُنَا وَإِلَهُكُمْ وَاحِدٌ وَنَحْنُ لَهُ مُسْلِمُونَ
Wala tujadiloo ahla alkitabi illa biallatee hiya ahsanu illa allatheena thalamoo minhum waqooloo amanna biallathee onzila ilayna waonzila ilaykum wailahuna wailahukum wahidun wanahnu lahu muslimoona
And dispute ye not with the People of the Book, except with means better (than mere disputation), unless it be with those of them who inflict wrong (and injury): but say, “We believe in the revelation which has come down to us and in that which came down to you; Our Allah and your Allah is one; and it is to Him we bow (in Islam).”
(English rendition by Abdullah Yusuf Ali)
Muslims believe in only one god who explicitly denies fathering any son. Christians, on the other hand, also believe in One God, who is the Father of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Muslims know of only one god who has no son while Christians know of only One God, the Father of Our Lord Jesus Christ Whom the Muslim god denies as his son.
Muslims do not know of any other god except he who is most certainly NOT the father of Jesus. Christians do not know of any other God except the He Who IS Father of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Could you please tell me how these 2 mutually contradictory and mutually exclusive beliefs are in fact, despite what the Muslims and Christians and Christ Himself claims, compatible? Could you enlighten us on how these 2 polar opposite conceptions of God are actually one and the same Father?
Just because both parties use a common word to describe God does not mean that they do in fact refer to the same Person by using those similar words.
