There is a big rift in between Christians and Muslims. This leads to fighting and bad feelings. Both, as in the rest of the world they think that the other is cursed to the Hell forever. The Muslims think that all Christians worship three gods or believe that God had children and a son. The Christians think that the Muslims are terrorists and worship Muhammad. To comment on the first, I would like to say that the term children and son were wrongly used many years ago in the Engel/Gospels and today in the Bible. But you have to understand that God does not listen to the words spoken, but what comes from the heart when you worship. I know from my own knowledge that a Christian today would not support the idea that God had children or a son in a physical sense. I am sure without a doubt that all Christians today realize that it means children and son in the meaning of creation. All Christians know that Isa/Jesus was created in the same way that Adam was by a Miracle of Allah "The One God and Master of Creation". They do not think in the terms of God having a son in the physical sense. And no Christian today believes that there are three Gods.
Concerning the Christians point of view, they or sometimes uneducated in who or what Muhammad was. They only see what is broadcast on the Television. They do not understand that in the time of Muhammad that the people of Arabia were worshiping idols in the house of God. They do not know what trials he went through to convert the population of Arabia back to worshiping the same God of the Prophet Isa/Jesus and all the prophets before him, The One God of all Creation. They do not know who or what Allah is. The rift I see is because a lack of knowledge between the languages.
a. In my minds eye and I believe all Christians today, children and son in a religious perspective means God's creation.
b. Allah is an Arabic word that means in English, The One God.
Too many people look at the differences of minor things and miss the message that Allah has given us. One example that comes to mind is that the Bible teaches that Isaac was offered as a sacrifice and the Holy Quran teaches that it was Ishmael. Some people get so caught up in this that they don't even look for a message from The One God. What is so important about who it was? This has to do with pride. The Christian Muslims descended from the lineage of Isaac where the Muslims of Arabia descended from Ishmael. They will both often overlook the simple message that Allah is most gracious and ever merciful. They overlook the fact that Abraham was willing to sacrifice his son and that the mercy of Allah spared his sons life. I also feel myself that another message there is that it would come a time that Allah would do the same with a man that was to come at a later time. A man that would be so special in Gods eyes that he would be like a son. That man would be at the alter to be sacrificed and at the last minute he would be taken away from the suffering, much as the son of Abraham was replaced with a lamb.
Like I said in the beginning, worship of The God/Allah has to come from the heart. A man whether Muslim or Christian that looks to The God/Allah for aid and praises Allah night and day will have the same reward. You cannot praise Allah with good deeds only. A Muslim that recites the Holy Quran perfectly but does not understand the words and does not praise Allah in his own language either is only doing good deeds. The same holds true to the studied scholars of Christianity. There are those that could argue with you for days about the Bible on the words that are written, but do they really understand the meaning. If you look to The God/Allah for guidance he will bless you with spiritual understanding and lead you along a straight path. True love and worship of The God/Allah has the rewards of Paradise. Doers of good deeds alone, hypocrisy, non-believers all have the reward of Hell Fires forever.
