I was going to say God is great ... and yet it is the same God, by a different name, for both parties. So I guess that's why it worked, because He was able to intervene in both lives, in one small incident.
Well, my fren, I disagree. Allah and God are the same - being a single God as opposed to multiple Gods pagans had. There are lots of different Muslim sects also, so not all Muslims will be the same, at all. But, meet an average Muslim, and you will find a mild-mannered person. It is just that the religion overlaps old tribal lines.
But let's just agree to disagree. Be careful though, because there is a lot of slander about - for political reasons - to demonize one party or the other, and there has been a LOT of Muslim demonization - not only to conjure up a bogeyman.
Might I remind you of Protestant vs. Catholic fights? IS that the same God? What about ... Freemasons. The most infiltrated society on earth. They speak of the Great Architect. Still only one God.
Interesting enough I had a discussion once about God to a Muslim. I was quite confused. To make a long story short he said that they worshipped the same one true God, the same from my Bible. I was like what? And I mentioned the Old Testament, Moses, Abraham, Abraham and he said yes, same God. He just said that they did not believe Jesus was who He said he was. I said…well you are the same as many Jewish beliefs then? He agreed. I mentioned that Muhammad guy, and he said yes a great prophet. As they saw Jesus as the greatest prophet….I was so confused. So maybe their are various beliefs in the Muslim beliefs. They are incorrect as in overall but very interesting to say the least.
Next time ask him if Jesus is the Son of God. He will deny it. Unbelievers will say that Jesus was a: rabbi, guru, prophet, example, etc. but not the Son of God. Read 1 John 2:22-23 to identify false Christians and false claims.
