Faith Matters 63: Jews/Christians as Friends, Miraculous Birth of Jesus, Evolution, Dogs

22 Aug 2011

Q1 01:55 The question relates to the verse of the Holy Quran (5:52) “O ye who believe! take not the Jews and the Christians for friends. They are friends one to another. And whoso among you takes them for friends is indeed one of them. Verily, Allah guides not the unjust people.” And the other verse related to a situation of war (9:29) “Fight those from among the People of the Book who believe not in Allah, nor in the Last Day, nor hold as unlawful what Allah and His Messenger have declared to be unlawful, nor follow the true religion, until they pay the tax with their own hand and acknowledge their subjection.” Some interpret these verses that all Muslims must fight Christians and Jews, is that correct? And can Muslims have Jews and Christians as their friends?

Q2 13:11 Second question relates that some argue that these Muslims who carry out terror attacks (the jihad or holy war) are the true Muslims?

Q3 20:35 All Muslims and Christians believe in the miraculous birth of Jesus(as) through Allah’s Divine intervention. Why is it not then seen as logical for him to have been taken up by Allah and then for him to return?

Q4 28:45 Why did God choose Hazrat Eesa (alaihi salam) i.e. Jesus to be born this way?

Q5 34:15 Is it un-Islamic to have dog? If its true please explain the Islamic stance on owning a dog.

Q6 44:55 What is Ahmadiyya Islamic view on evolution and creation of Adam?
