I've read the Koran and the Hadith before on the Internet. Let’s make things clear before I start discussing about Islam. I don’t hate people of Arabic descent or consider most Muslims as terrorists. Neither do I abhor Arabic culture that God blessed them with like calligraphy, architecture, language, trade, mathematics, history, etc., but I strongly dissent with the Islamic religion for many reasons. Islam means to submit to God not peace. In the Islamic view, you must submit to the Islamic version of God to have peace as mentioned in “The Joy of Sects” by Peter Occhigrosso in 1996 at pgs. 394-397. Islam actually means “Submission.” Only the word Salaam in the common greeting “as-Salaam-I’ Alaikum” [or Peace be upon you] means peace in Arabic. It is obvious that God blessed the Arabic people in numerous ways that I’ve mentioned above. The Arabic people came from the Saudi Arabian Peninsula. The Bible mentioned their progenitors as from Joktan (who lived in the South mainly from Eber) and Ishmael (meaning God had blessed) existing in central and Northern Arabia originally. God in Genesis blessed Ishmael with 12 nations, then Isaiah 60:6-7 called Ishmael’s descendants as living in peace with Israel during the Messiah’s Millennial Reign and then forever in the future.
Josephus [a Jewish historian] in his “The Works of Josephus,” Raphael Patai (another Jewish scholar wrote the “Seed of Abraham” on pg. 23), and countless scholars proved that the Ishmaelites make up the Arabs of today. Patai wrote 600 articles, 20 books, taught in Princeton, taught in Colombia, and the University of Pennsylvania. Arabic and Jewish scholars highly praised Patai, so he knows what he’s talking about. Allah is not the name of Almighty God for numerous reasons. Allah is divided into 2 syllables that are Al and –Ilah. Al means “the” in Arabic and “Ilah” means “the god” in a generic deity not the name of Almighty God of the Universe. In fact, Allah is never found in the Bible in Greek or Hebrew. Even the 1st Arabic translation of the Bible in the 9th century don’t have the word “Allah” in the Old Testament or New Testament. I don’t agree with Steve Van Nattan on everything, but his work exposing Islam called Allah as the solar diety.
The truth is that Muhammad chose Allah from among the 360+ false gods in the Kaaba. The origin of Allah was from Babel as the god of Enlil. The root LiL became –ih. There was also a goddess counterpart, which was Ham’illat. Allah was mentioned in pagan inscriptions in Babel, North Arabia, Jawf, Petra, Phoenicia, Palmarya, Assyria, and other places. The Quraysh tribe used Allah as Baal. Allah being equivalent to Baal (Satan) is mentioned by Dr. Cathy Burns and other researchers. James Hastings’ Encylcopedia. Here's some sources on this issue:
“All said 'Allah', but each one had its own deity in mind. The expression 'the god' (al-ilah), which became the only usage, became the bridge to the concept of an identical god which all tribes had in common” (J.Wellhausen, p. 218)
"In times of great stress, or pleadings, the Northern Arabs used the god-from, FHLH, which meant "so O Allah." The goddess from used just as often was FHLT meant ,"so, O Allat." This shows that Allah was well established in North Arabia and that he ahd a consort, or lady friend of high esteem, named Allat. ILAHA was used for god. This shows that Allah was the sun god figure and Allat was the moon goddess." (Hastings, James, Encylopedia of Religion and Ethics, Scribners, NY pg. 248).
*Allah just originated from Mesopotamia and caught on by Muhammad to devise his religion of Islam:
“We will now discuss the derivation process of the god's name from the beginning. We might have waited until the end for this revelation, but it seemed good to me to let you in on the plot so that you can follow the Hajj of Allah better. The root form of the name of the earth god in Sumer is found in Enlil, the primal god. If we drop the gender prefixes from Enlil and his consort Ninlil, we are left with the root, "LIL." This is reduced later in many cultures to "IL." (Some "scholars" have tried to say that IL is EL, but the root form of IL is LIL, so this notion just won't work. Of course these "scholars" have no respect for the Bible unless it supports their presuppositions.) The system of putting prefixes before the god names was used in the Hamatic cultures like Sumer. After the god / goddess moved on to Semitic cultures such as Assyria and Semitic Babylon, a suffix was attached after the "LIL" or "IL" root.
The most startling coincidence to me, of ancient Sumerian god names concurrently inscribed in the same epigraphs with much more recent god names, is in an inscription in stone from Al-Ula in Northern Arabia, circa 500 BC, just 1000 years before Muhammad. In the same Semitic language dialect, and in the same time frame, are two other names of the gods- Mar-Allah, meaning Lord-god, and Adar'IL, a Sardonic contraction using the root form of the name for god from Sumer, LIL.
This shows that the basic IL or LIL root form survived for 2500 years, appearing in both names in ancient and recent forms! In Jawf, in the same area and time frame, the feminine form for Allah is found commonly as in Ham'illat (ILAT is the goddess). Also, in inscriptions near oases, Allah and Allat (sometimes ILAT) appear with no descriptive attachments, either in appeals for help in travel, or as part of the signature of the suppliant (like Abdallah-- IL root in name!). What does this mean? This means that IL and Allah shared the reverence of the ancient Sumerians, circa 3000 BC, and the northern Arab tribes in 500 BC. Survival time-- 2500 years. (Winnett, F V, and Reed, W L, Ancient Records From North Arabia, Univ. of Toronto, 1970 [This is a key source for epigraphs.] pg. 79,126-127 / 245,253b. Winnett has done some of the best and most recent work in inscription interpretation.)
*The Answering Islam site says this : “This is not a pretty sight to the Muslim reader because it clearly shows that Allah descended from the original pagan god, Enlil, after the tower of Babel. The reason we can be sure of the connection between Babel (or Sumer) and Mecca is that Enlil, whose LIL root name would not go away, survived for 2500 years to be included in Northern Arabia in the Kaaba.”
“Muhammad cleansed the Kaaba of 360 pagan idols and gods, but he retained the resident god of choice, Al-ILAH, or Allah. If he was extending the heritage of EL or Elohim into the world, as he claimed he was, then why didn't Muhammad use one of the clearly biblical names extant in the Bible AND right there in Arabia? In fact, Allah and Elohim are mutually exclusive, so Allah is a pagan counterfeit.” (Van Netton, Steve, Allah Divine or Demonic, pg. 113-14, 1998)
“The Quraysh ADOPTED ALLAH AS BAAL, and added the goddesses to his cult the same way as Baal had three daughters in the Fertile Crescent. They venerated him and his three female companions in his new House, the Kaaba at Mecca.” (Bergsson, Snorri G., Goddesses and Wica worship,'Neo-paganism at its most deceptive form, Islam and Goddess Worship Chpt. IV, pg. 15, 1998-2000)
Islam is not related to Christianity at all. The Koran denies that God has a Son (Surah 4:171, Surah 19:92, Surah 23:91), but the Bible purely outlined that the Father has a Son (Psalms 2:7, Luke 22:70, Luke 1:35). Islam denies the divinity of Jesus Christ and calls him just a prophet. On the other hand, there are a lot of Bible verses to prove that Jesus Christ is God in the flesh being more than just a prophet (1 Timothy 3:16, Col. 2:9, John 4:26, Mt. 8:2, Mark 5:6).
Surah 4:154-158 even denies the crucifixion, death, and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. Christ rose from the dead (Romans 6:9, Philippians 2:8, Luke 18:33, etc.) In islam, you must fulfill 5 pillars to be saved, so you can go to Heaven. In reality, you can never be saved on what you do. You are saved by faith through grace by the Lord Jesus Christ alone. (Ephesians 2:8, 9, Romans 3:20, Romans 4:4). Heaven in Islam is persavive sex, drink, and other sexual perversion (Surah 56:15, Surah 56:54, 67-71). The Bible says that in heaven, we will be like angels to those who are saved, no death, suffering, no homosexuality, and no alcohol consumption readily.
Islam believed that the Koran is an inspired book along with the Torah, Zabr (the psalms), and the Injil (the NT Gospel). The truth is that with the book of Revelation, the canon of the Bible is Revelation. Since the Koran adds concepts contrary to the Holy Bible, it’s adds to the Word of God, therefore it’s forbidden to be placed equaled to the Scriptures (Deut. 4:2, 12:32, Revelation 22:18, Proverbs 30:6). Muslims claim that the Koran don’t have contradictions, but this is false because there are many apparent (ww). Muhammad wasn’t a perfect character as well. He had more than 4 wives (as many as 22), which violated the Koran of having 4 wives of one man. According to the Hadith, he married a 6th year old girl, so he was a pedophile. He owned many slaves, was a terrorist by killing a man and enslaving others in Nakhla Raid, and stole his son’s wife in Surah 33:36-38. He admitted to being sinner in Hadith vol. 1, no. 7111 and Surah 18:10. Hadith vol. 5, no. 266 have Muhammad not knowing what to do.
Robert Morey’s Islamic Invasion “Islamic Invasion” is fraudulent. Morey is an Arab basher, Hyper-Calvinists, Reconstructionists, and refuse explicit soul winner for Muslims, so he’s spewing false doctrine. He lies and said that Ishmael was absorbed into Midianite tribes and Arabic people today aren’t related to Arabic people. 1 Chronicles 27:30 called David’s camel keeper as an Ishmaelite 300 years after Morey classified Ishmael’s descendants gone. Even the Nabateans existed from North Arabia and historians deduced they were from Ishmael’s son Nabaetans in 500 B.C. to the time of Josephus. What needs to be done is peaceful conversion of all Muslims.
The origin of the crescent and the Moon
The star and the crescent of Islam were clearly based upon the moon goddess, Allat, and the astral goddess Al-Uzza. Allat and the Al-Uzza figure in Surah 53 is what is called “the Satanic verses” which Muhammad initially gave, but later deleted. The moon and Venus connection to Allat and Al-Uzza are one of the most embarrassing matters for the Mullahs of Islam. The star in ancient Babylon is known as the Isthar and Ashart, and was known in Saba as Atar. So, the moon goddess is Allat in Mecca, while the star was Al-Uzza, a very local lady and star. Thus, the origin of the star and crescent in Islam is apparent. It makes sense. Allat was the moon goddess and Allah was the sun god. Allah was the phallic symbol and Allat was the vaginal deity. This is from Steve van Nattan's research. I don't agree with Steve on everything, but his information on Islam is very documentated and his best work.
