Bible vs. Quran: The Pathways of Blessing and Bondage

Bible vs. Quran: The Pathways of Blessing and Bondage
By Dr. Maxwell Shimba | Shimba Theological Institute

When it comes to charting a path for life, the Bible and the Quran could not be further apart. The Bible is a divine blueprint for hope, prosperity, and victory, while the Quran presents a theology of hardship, fatalism, and deferred hope that traps its followers in cycles of suffering.

The Bible: God’s Blueprint for Success
The Word of God boldly declares in Jeremiah 29:11 that “I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” The Christian faith celebrates the dignity and destiny of each person, elevating them to be “the head and not the tail” (Deuteronomy 28:13).

The Scriptures teach that wisdom is not only spiritually enriching but practically rewarding: “Length of days is in her right hand, and in her left hand riches and honor” (Proverbs 3:16). In Matthew 5:3, the poor in spirit inherit the kingdom of heaven — not as a call to earthly poverty, but as a reminder of eternal worth beyond material status. And in Matthew 5:41, Christ encourages believers to go the extra mile, seizing opportunities for excellence rather than settling for mediocrity.

The Bible shuns the culture of complaint. “Do all things without murmuring and disputing, that you may be blameless and harmless, shining as lights in the world” (Philippians 2:14-15). It celebrates diligence: “In all labor there is profit, but idle chatter leads only to poverty” (Proverbs 14:23). This is a divine call to productivity, vision, and progress.

The Quran: A Theology of Imprisonment
In stark contrast, the Quranic worldview binds its followers in a theology of hardship. Sahih Muslim 2956 proclaims “The world is a prison for the believer and a paradise for the unbeliever.” Instead of inspiring believers to rise, it confines them to endure.

Surah Al-Baqarah 2:286 resigns mankind to burdens dictated by fate, while Surah Al-Mulk 67:2 describes life as a test filled with suffering, where hope is perpetually deferred. While oil-rich lands flaunt wealth in gold-plated palaces, ordinary followers are taught to embrace hardship as a virtue rather than pursue progress and enterprise.

The Clear Contrast
The Bible offers a faith that empowers, uplifts, and transforms, while the Quranic message too often binds its adherents in spiritual and social stagnation. Where the Bible equips you to overcome, Islam calls you to endure. Where Christianity grants sonship and inheritance in Christ, Islam grants a lifetime of striving under the weight of rigid laws and fatalism.

The Choice is Yours
In the final analysis, the Bible hands you a life manual for success, prosperity, and hope, rooted in the grace of a living God. The Quran, however, offers a theology of deferred hope, legalistic burden, and earthly restraint.

Choose wisely. Choose Christ.

The Discrepancies Between Allah and Muhammad: A Doctrinal Dilemma

The Discrepancies Between Allah and Muhammad: A Doctrinal Dilemma

By Dr. Maxwell Shimba | Shimba Theological Institute

One of the most troubling aspects of Islamic theology, which rarely receives open scrutiny, is the glaring contradiction between what Allah supposedly decrees in the Qur’an and what Muhammad later commands through hadith literature. This theological discord reveals a disturbing inconsistency within Islam’s foundations — an inconsistency believers deserve to examine honestly.

The attached chart highlights some of these contradictions:

1. The Number of Daily Prayers

  • Allah’s command: Muslims are instructed to pray three times a day (Qur'an 24:58).

  • Muhammad’s command: Later, Muhammad increases it to five times a day (Sahih al-Bukhari 528).

If Allah’s word is perfect and eternal, why would Muhammad alter a direct divine command?


2. The Right of Intercession

  • Allah states: All intercession belongs to Him alone (Qur'an 39:44).

  • Muhammad claims: He has been granted the exclusive right of intercession on Judgment Day (Sahih al-Bukhari 335).

This is a bold contradiction. If no one can intercede but Allah, how does Muhammad assume a privilege denied to all creation?


3. Mut’a (Temporary Marriage)

  • Allah permits it: Qur'an 33:51 allows temporary marriages.

  • Muhammad cancels it: Later abrogated by Muhammad in Sahih al-Bukhari 5523.

Did God change His mind, or did Muhammad override divine permission?


4. Laws Regarding Slave Women

  • Allah decrees: Slave women must observe a waiting period after separation (Qur'an 4:24).

  • Muhammad contradicts: Declares no waiting period is necessary (Sahih al-Bukhari 2235).

This inconsistency highlights the moral and doctrinal confusion embedded in Islamic jurisprudence.


The Theological Implications

These contradictions suggest that Muhammad often revised, altered, or overruled Quranic declarations for situational convenience. This is not merely a matter of differing interpretations but direct conflicts between Allah’s supposedly eternal decrees and Muhammad’s evolving rulings.

For Christians, this underscores the reliability and consistency of the Gospel message. In contrast to Islam’s shifting commands, the New Testament reveals a Savior whose word is unchanging and whose authority is absolute.

As Hebrews 13:8 declares:

“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.”


Conclusion:
This doctrinal tug-of-war between Allah and Muhammad is a fatal flaw within Islamic theology — exposing it as a man-made system rather than a divine revelation. It’s time for seekers of truth to reevaluate Islam’s claims in light of these undeniable inconsistencies and consider the unchanging truth of Jesus Christ.




Heaven in Christianity vs. Islamic Eschatology


Heaven in Christianity vs. Islamic Eschatology

Both Christianity and Islam cherish a vision of Paradise for the righteous, but their portraits differ sharply. In Islam, Paradise (Jannah) is often described in concrete, sensual terms: lush gardens, rivers of milk and honey, and even seventy-two houris (heavenly maidens) married to each believer. A controversial hadith in Sunan Ibn Majah (4337) puts it bluntly: “Allah will marry [the believer] to seventy-two wives – two of them houris and seventy from among the inhabitants of Hell – all of whom have alluring charms, and he will have a male organ that never becomes flaccid.”. This vivid reward-scene emphasizes God’s role as a bountiful Rewarder: believers are compensated with every imaginable delight for their earthly faithfulness. Even the houris – literally “wide-eyed maidens” in the Qur’an – are described as “purified wives” of spotless beauty. Classical sources elaborate that a believer may “cohabit” with these houris once for each day he fasted in Ramadan or performed other good works.

In contrast, Christian Scripture pictures heaven largely in spiritual, relational terms. Revelation 21:3–4 proclaims: “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with men… He will wipe away every tear… Death will be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain”. The emphasis is on the presence of God and the abolition of sorrow, not on carnal pleasures. Paul echoes this transcendence by quoting Isaiah: “No eye has seen, no ear has heard… the things which God has prepared for those who love Him”, signaling that heaven’s joys exceed human imagination and language. Indeed, Jesus taught that in the resurrection “they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like the angels in heaven”, indicating that earthly marital relations cease and believers simply “are like the angels,” focused on their union with God. Christian teaching consistently portrays God as holy, loving, and above all relational – the believer’s ultimate reward is intimate communion with Christ, the “Bridegroom,” rather than physical satisfactions.

Islamic Eschatology and the Hadith of Seventy-Two Wives

Islamic texts describe Paradise with many sensual delights, reflecting God’s generosity to the faithful. The Qur’an frequently mentions houris (ḥūr al-ʿayn) – enchanting companions with “wide and lovely eyes” – promised to righteous believers (e.g. Qur’an 44:54, 52:20, 55:70–72). The Sunan hadith above explicitly quantifies these rewards: 72 wives, including two from among the houris and seventy “inherited” from the people of Hell. (According to the narration, these Hell-born women are purified and redeemed as rewards.) Encyclopædia Britannica notes that Islamic tradition even specifies how often a believer can enjoy his houris: one for each day of Ramadan fast or good deed. In this vision, Paradise is very much a physical realm – with real (though perfected) bodies – where God delights to lavish carnal blessings on those who serve Him. The reward for piety is tangibly pleasurable.

This portrayal reflects a moral framework in which earthly faithfulness earns visible, even sensual recompense. Believers are motivated by certainty of reward, and the promise of houris and perpetual virility vividly underscores Allah’s power and generosity. Some Muslim scholars historically have interpreted such images metaphorically – suggesting that “houris” symbolize pure beauty and joy rather than fleshly mates – but the literal reading remains influential. Notably, the hadith’s framing (reward of Hell’s inhabitants) also carries a moral lesson: those who rejected faith on earth lose even their families as forfeited reward. Islamic eschatology thus combines God’s mercy (granting beauty) with His justice (giving each the full fruits of his choices).

Christian Vision of Heaven: God’s Presence and Holiness

Christian hope centers on being with God and Christ. Heaven is often depicted as a new creation where God’s kingdom comes fully: the “New Jerusalem” (Revelation 21–22) with golden streets and a crystal river, populated not by warring humans but by God’s own people. Importantly, this imagery is meant to convey spiritual realities. Revelation’s throne vision emphasizes that the tabernacle of God is with men; He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. There is no mention of sexual rewards or harem-prizes – rather, God Himself is the treasure. The passage explicitly promises removal of all suffering: “He will wipe away every tear from their eyes”. Likewise, Paul insists that whatever joys await are beyond what we can conceive.

For Christians, then, heaven’s “luxuries” are fundamentally relational and transformative. The believer’s resurrected body will be imperishable (1 Corinthians 15), but God’s Word teaches that earthly marriage relationships do not persist (Matthew 22:30) – they are superseded by each person’s direct communion with Christ. In sum, Christian heaven is characterized by perfect holiness, love, and fellowship. The ultimate reward is seeing God face to face (1 Corinthians 13:12; 1 John 3:2), being fully sanctified and joyful in His presence. Sexuality and procreation belong to the earthly order; in eternity the believer is spiritually “like the angels” and married to Christ (the Church as bride), not accruing human wives or children. The New Testament consistently portrays the redeemed life as focused on worship and relationship with God, not on indulgent pleasures of the flesh.

Physical vs. Spiritual Interpretations

One key difference is how each tradition understands “the body” in the afterlife. Islam affirms bodily resurrection and speaks of real physical rewards (meat, wine, spouses). Christian doctrine also affirms a resurrection body (1 Corinthians 15:42–44), but emphasizes its glorified and spiritual nature. Paul declares that “flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God” (1 Cor 15:50, cf. 1 Cor 15:44–46), implying our new bodies will be suited for the divine environment. Thus, while Christians do not see heaven as “non-physical,” they stress that any physical comforts (whether clothing, food, or beauty) are wholly sanctified and secondary to communion with God.

Qur’anic descriptions sometimes blend literal and metaphorical language. The houris might be taken literally (as in the hadith) or spiritually (as some modern Muslims suggest). The ethical vision behind this matters: if taken literally, Paradise becomes a place of sensory recompense. Christianity, on the other hand, consistently interprets its paradise images as symbols of spiritual truths. For example, the blood of the lamb in Revelation is understood as the cleansing work of Christ, not a literal fountain. Likewise, the fact that “no eye has seen” the kingdom teaches humility – we cannot reduce heaven to anything our physical mind can imagine.

In practical terms, Christian teachers often caution against fixating on earthly pleasures. Jesus Himself rebuked greed and lust (e.g. Matthew 5:28), and promised treasure in heaven that “neither moth nor rust destroys” (Matthew 6:20). Thus, Christian hope encourages fidelity for God’s sake and promises reward, but that reward is God’s very presence and loving approval, far above any material or sensual gratification. The very paradox – that Christians die to self and gain everything in Christ – underscores that heaven is fundamentally about union with God’s holiness and love, not about human indulgence.

Moral Vision and the Character of God

These contrasting eschatologies reflect different emphases on God’s character and the moral life. In the Islamic hadith, God is portrayed as a sovereign King and just Benefactor: He rewards believers with abundant, tangible blessings. This underscores Allah’s justice (each gets precisely what he desires) and generosity (even inherited wives are granted). The moral vision is that righteous deeds will be richly recompensed. However, such a portrayal can raise questions from a Christian perspective: Does it reduce God’s promise to mere worldly enjoyment? What does it say about purity and holiness in the age to come, when believers are defined by sexual consummation rather than spiritual maturity?

Christianity’s vision paints God as infinitely holy and loving. God is not primarily a dispenser of physical goods, but the object of the believer’s ultimate delight. His character is revealed in Christ – a sacrificial lover, not a sensual provider. The moral impetus in Christianity is to become like Christ (Romans 8:29), reflecting His love and holiness. Heaven is the culmination of that process: believers have been cleansed and perfected, so that they can joyfully be with God Himself (Revelation 21:3) without any impurity or pain. The promise of “no more death or sorrow” shows God as comforter. In Christian theology, God’s justice was already satisfied on the Cross, so heaven is not about extra punishment or reward but about unbroken relationship – consistent with God’s nature as “merciful and gracious” (Exodus 34:6) and “God is love” (1 John 4:8).

Key contrasts in summary:

  • Focus of Reward: Christian Scripture highlights communion with God and Christ, not sensual pleasures. Jesus taught that believers will not marry in the resurrection but be like angels, emphasizing spiritual joy. By contrast, the quoted hadith centers on sexual rewards (72 virgins) as the believer’s chief delight.

  • Imagery: Biblical language uses holy imagery (God’s throne, New Jerusalem, paradise as God’s presence) with emphasis on comfort, whereas the hadith uses explicit, bodily imagery. The Bible says “no eye has seen… what God has prepared”, implying a mystery beyond sexual conquest.

  • God’s Character: Christianity portrays God as a loving Father and righteous Judge whose gift is Himself and moral transformation. Islam emphasizes God as Just and Beneficent, rewarding deeds – the hadith shows Allah as one who fulfills believers’ hopes in tangible ways.

In the end, Dr. Shimba notes, each tradition’s portrait of heaven mirrors its understanding of the Divine. Christianity’s heaven reflects a God whose ultimate gift is His own Presence and sanctifying grace (cf. Rev 21:3–4), while the hadith’s heaven reflects a God who rewards with every lawful good (including carnal reward). A Christian perspective holds that God’s perfect nature is best revealed in Christ’s love and holiness, so it uplifts the spiritual and moral vision above the carnal. Both views agree believers will be joyful forever – but they invite us to ask whether that joy is found in God Himself or in created delights.

Sources: The above draws on Islamic texts (Sunan Ibn Majah 4337, Qur’anic language) and Christian Scripture (Revelation 21:3–4; 1 Cor 2:9; Matt 22:30) and respected summaries (e.g. Britannica on houris) to contrast these eschatological portraits.

The Fulfillment of 2 Corinthians 11:2-4 in the False Doctrine of Isa Bin Maryam

Title: The Fulfillment of 2 Corinthians 11:2-4 in the False Doctrine of Isa Bin Maryam

By Dr. Maxwell Shimba | Shimba Theological Institute

The Apostle Paul, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, issued a timeless warning to the early church about deceivers who would introduce counterfeit gospels and a false Christ. In 2 Corinthians 11:2-4, Paul writes:

“For I am jealous for you with a godly jealousy. I promised you to one husband, to Christ, so that I might present you as a pure virgin to Him. But I am afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent’s cunning, your minds may somehow be led astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ. For if someone comes and preaches a Jesus other than the Jesus we preached, or if you receive a different spirit from the one you received, or a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it easily enough.”

Paul’s prophecy came to life centuries later through Muhammad, the founder of Islam. In the 7th century, Muhammad introduced a figure called Isa Bin Maryam in the Quran — a character carrying the name of Jesus but stripped of His divine nature, crucifixion, resurrection, and redemptive work.

This Isa denies being the Son of God, rejects the cross, and instead, points people to Muhammad as the final prophet. He proclaims a different gospel entirely — one based on works, law, and submission to a god foreign to the God of the Bible.

This is precisely the deception Paul warned about:

  • A different Jesus — not the crucified, risen, and divine Savior, but a mortal prophet.

  • A different spirit — not the Holy Spirit, but one denying the Sonship of Christ.

  • A different gospel — not salvation by grace through faith, but by religious submission and works.

Millions have since followed this counterfeit Christ, believing in a message Paul foresaw would come to seduce hearts and minds away from the true Gospel.

The lesson remains urgent today. Christianity must continue to expose this false doctrine and reaffirm that salvation is found in no one else but Jesus Christ — the Son of God, crucified and risen for the salvation of mankind.

“For there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” (Acts 4:12)

May the Church stand firm against every counterfeit gospel, and may those trapped in deception find the true Savior, not Isa Bin Maryam, but Jesus Christ, the Lord of Glory.




The Warning of 2 Corinthians 11:2-4 Fulfilled in Muhammad’s Isa Bin Maryam

Title: The Warning of 2 Corinthians 11:2-4 Fulfilled in Muhammad’s Isa Bin Maryam

By Dr. Maxwell Shimba | Shimba Theological Institute

The Apostle Paul, through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, issued a prophetic warning to the early Church about false teachers and counterfeit gospels that would arise to deceive many. In 2 Corinthians 11:2-4, Paul writes:

“For I am jealous for you with a godly jealousy. I promised you to one husband, to Christ, so that I might present you as a pure virgin to him. But I am afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent’s cunning, your minds may somehow be led astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ. For if someone comes to you and preaches a Jesus other than the Jesus we preached, or if you receive a different spirit from the Spirit you received, or a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it easily enough.” (2 Corinthians 11:2-4, NIV)

What a clear and timeless warning — and history has shown it to be true.

Centuries after this epistle was penned, Muhammad arose in 7th-century Arabia claiming to be a prophet. In the Quran, he introduced a figure called Isa Bin Maryam (Jesus son of Mary), who, though carrying the name of our Lord Jesus, is a completely different character from the true Son of God revealed in the Bible.

Isa Bin Maryam of the Quran is neither divine nor crucified. He denies his own deity, prophesies the coming of Muhammad, and offers a counterfeit gospel. This is precisely what Paul warned about — a different Jesus, a different spirit, and a different gospel.

Paul's prophecy finds its perfect fulfillment in the Islamic distortion of Jesus’ identity:

  • The Biblical Jesus is God incarnate, crucified and risen.

  • The Quran’s Isa is a mere human prophet, neither crucified nor divine, and subordinate to Muhammad’s message.

This deception has led over a billion souls astray, accepting a false Christ that can neither save nor redeem.

Paul foresaw this danger. His warning wasn’t only for the Corinthian church but for all generations. The Quran’s presentation of Isa is not a continuation of Biblical truth — it’s a calculated counterfeit, exactly what the apostle cautioned against.

As believers, we must remain vigilant. The true Gospel is found only in the Bible. Any other ‘Jesus’ or gospel must be rejected. Muhammad’s Isa Bin Maryam is a false doctrine — a prophetic fulfillment of Paul’s dire warning.

In conclusion, 2 Corinthians 11:2-4 isn’t merely an ancient caution. It’s a divine lens through which we see the cunning deception of Islam’s Isa. The counterfeit Christ cannot save — only the risen Jesus of the Scriptures can.

Stay grounded in the Word. Test every spirit. Defend the faith.

The Problem of Blood-Bought Paradise: A Biblical and Theological Critique of Quran 9:111

The Problem of Blood-Bought Paradise: A Biblical and Theological Critique of Quran 9:111

By Dr. Maxwell Shimba | Shimba Theological Institute


Introduction

One of the most controversial verses in the Quran is found in Surah At-Tawbah (9:111). It boldly declares that Allah has purchased the lives and wealth of the believers in exchange for Paradise, on the condition that they fight in His cause, kill, and be killed. What’s even more startling is the claim that this is a binding promise found in the Torah, the Gospel, and the Quran itself.

Today, we shall unpack this troubling verse, expose its theological implications, and compare it to the true message of peace, redemption, and grace revealed in the Bible through Jesus Christ.


The Verse in Question

Quran 9:111 (Sahih International):

"Indeed, Allah has purchased from the believers their lives and their properties [in exchange] for that they will have Paradise. They fight in the cause of Allah, so they kill and are killed. [It is] a true promise [binding] upon Him in the Torah and the Gospel and the Qur'an. And who is truer to his covenant than Allah? So rejoice in your transaction which you have contracted. And it is that which is the great attainment."


A Theology of Violence

This verse presents a transactional religion where Paradise is not a free gift of God’s grace — as proclaimed in the New Testament — but a reward purchased through bloodshed and martyrdom. It essentially monetizes faith through warfare:

  • Kill in the cause of Allah

  • Be killed in the cause of Allah

  • Receive Paradise as payment

Is this truly the will of a holy, loving, and just God?


Did the Torah and Gospel Ever Teach This?

The Quran claims this doctrine of blood-for-paradise is a binding promise found in the Torah and the Gospel. But a careful examination of both proves otherwise:

  • In the Torah (Old Testament), God instructed the Israelites to fight specific battles for the preservation of His covenant nation, not for personal Paradise.

  • Nowhere does the Torah teach that individuals secure eternal life by killing others or being killed themselves.

  • In the Gospels, Jesus Christ explicitly rebukes violence:

    “Put your sword back in its place,” Jesus said to him, “for all who draw the sword will die by the sword.” (Matthew 26:52)

The Gospel of Christ offers eternal life as a free, undeserved gift by faith (John 3:16, Ephesians 2:8-9). Nowhere does it link salvation to warfare, murder, or martyrdom for reward.

This Quranic claim is both historically and theologically false.


The Problem of a Transactional God

The idea of a god who buys the lives and wealth of people in exchange for blood-drenched Paradise reduces faith to a contract, not a covenant. The God of the Bible seeks relationship through love, repentance, and mercy — not through slaughter and death.

John 10:10 (Jesus speaking):

“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”

It’s clear from this contrast who inspires violence and who brings peace.


Conclusion: Can This Be the Word of God?

A book that claims divine authority but promotes a doctrine so fundamentally at odds with the Torah and the Gospel cannot be trusted as the Word of God. Quran 9:111 reveals a theology foreign to the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Jesus Christ.

Paradise is not a reward for the blood of others. It is a gift paid for by the blood of Christ alone.


Final Thought

Dear reader — if a scripture invites you to kill for Paradise, test its spirit.
The true God sent His Son to die for you, not to command you to die for Him. Choose life in Christ.

Who Were the Disciples of Isa Bin Maryam?

Who Were the Disciples of Isa Bin Maryam? Were Their Names Mentioned? Was Isa Baptized in the Quran? And Can the Quran Be Trusted?

By Dr. Maxwell Shimba | Shimba Theological Institute


Introduction: Questions Islam Won’t Answer Clearly

Dear reader,
When discussing Isa Bin Maryam (the Islamic reference to Jesus, son of Mary), Muslims love to claim that they believe in him as a prophet. Yet, the Quran’s portrayal of Isa is suspiciously vague and contradictory when compared to reliable historical records and the New Testament. Today, let’s confront some key questions:

  • Who were the disciples of Isa Bin Maryam? Are their names recorded in the Quran?

  • Was Isa baptized, as recorded in the Bible, anywhere in the Quran?

  • And most importantly — can the Quran truly be trusted as a reliable revelation from God?

Let’s dissect these questions one by one.


1. Who Were the Disciples of Isa Bin Maryam? Are Their Names Mentioned in the Quran?

In the New Testament, the names of the twelve disciples of Jesus are clearly recorded: Peter, James, John, Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James (son of Alphaeus), Simon the Zealot, Judas (son of James), and Judas Iscariot (the betrayer).

But in the Quran? Not a single name.

The Quran mentions Hawariyyun (helpers/disciples) in Surah As-Saff 61:14:

“O you who have believed, be supporters of Allah, as when Jesus, the son of Mary, said to the disciples, ‘Who are my supporters for Allah?’ The disciples said, ‘We are supporters of Allah.’”

But it ends there — no names, no number, no identities. A book claiming to “confirm” what came before it (Surah 5:48) can’t even tell us who the disciples were.

Question:
If the Quran came from the same God who inspired the Bible, why leave out the names and details so plainly documented in the Gospels?


2. Was Isa Bin Maryam Baptized in the Quran?

In the Bible, Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist (Yahya bin Zakariya) in the Jordan River — a defining moment marking the start of his ministry.

But in the Quran? Silence.

Nowhere does the Quran record Isa bin Maryam being baptized. No Jordan River. No Holy Spirit descending like a dove. No voice from heaven saying, “This is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased.” (Matthew 3:17)

Another Question:
If Islam claims Isa is a true prophet, why omit this critical, supernatural affirmation of his divine mission — a moment witnessed by the masses?


3. Can the Quran Be Trusted?

These gaps point to an uncomfortable conclusion for honest inquirers:

  • A book claiming to confirm the Bible cannot contradict or omit its core, well-documented truths.

  • A book that fails to name the disciples of Isa — while pretending to validate him — lacks historical credibility.

  • A book that ignores Isa’s baptism, a universally attested event, is deliberately selective or uninformed.

Worse still, the Quran contains conflicting theological claims about Isa’s nature, mission, and fate. It denies his crucifixion (Surah 4:157), a fact established by both biblical, Roman, and extra-biblical historical records. How then can this book be trusted on matters of ultimate truth and salvation?


Final Thought: Truth Has Nothing to Hide

Christianity’s records are clear, specific, and consistent.
The Quran’s version of Isa is incomplete, contradictory, and devoid of vital historical detail.

So, can the Quran be trusted?
The evidence says — no.

At Shimba Theological Institute, we invite seekers to examine the facts boldly and embrace the true Jesus of history — the Son of God, crucified, risen, and coming again.

Why Doesn’t the Name of Allah Heal Diseases?

Why Doesn’t the Name of Allah Heal Diseases?

Why Is There No Healing Power in Islam While People Are Healed in the Name of Jesus?**

By Dr. Maxwell Shimba | Shimba Theological Institute
Originally written Friday, August 26, 2016


Introduction: What Is Healing?

Dear reader,
Healing is a divine act of restoring life and wholeness to the soul or body through faith. It happens when someone is prayed for, when hands are laid upon them, or when they hear the true, life-giving word of Jesus Christ. Spiritual healing often comes alongside physical healing — as seen in the Bible, where those healed in their bodies were also restored in their spirits.

But here lies a serious question for our Muslim friends:

  • Why is there no healing power in the name of Allah?

  • Why do Muslims never hold healing crusades or revivals like Christians do in the name of Jesus?


1. Why Doesn’t the Name of Allah Heal Diseases?

Despite being declared as "Most Merciful" and "Compassionate," we find no record in Islamic tradition of people being healed simply by invoking the name of Allah. Contrast this with Christianity, where countless testimonies exist of people miraculously healed through faith in the name of Jesus Christ.

The Bible says in Acts 3:6:

“In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk!”

And the man, lame from birth, rose and walked. But why is such power absent in Islam?


2. Allah Failed to Heal Muhammad

Even more concerning is that when the Prophet Muhammad fell gravely ill after reportedly eating poisoned meat, Allah could not heal him.

According to Ibn Sa’d, p. 265,
Aisha, the wife of Muhammad, narrated:

“When the Prophet was sick, Jibril would pray for him, saying: ‘In the name of Allah, may He heal you from every disease, from every pain, and from the evil of every envious person.’”

Yet, despite these prayers, Muhammad did not recover.


3. The Ineffective Prayers of Jibril

If Jibril (the angel Gabriel in Islam) was sent by Allah to pray for Muhammad’s healing — and still failed — what does that imply about the healing power associated with the name of Allah? Why did these prayers “hit a wall,” unable to save Allah’s own prophet?


4. But the Name of Jesus Heals Every Disease

On the other hand, the name of Jesus (Yesu) continues to heal countless people to this day. Healing crusades and revivals in Christianity overflow with testimonies of the blind receiving sight, the lame walking, and diseases disappearing through prayer in Jesus’ name.

John 14:13-14 says:

“And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.”

This promise remains alive and effective.


5. Have You Ever Seen a Healing Crusade in Islam?

Let’s ask ourselves honestly:
Have you ever heard of a healing service in a mosque, or a Muslim gathering where people are healed instantly by invoking the name of Allah?

The answer is no. There’s a noticeable absence of divine healing ministries in Islam — and this absence points us to a vital spiritual truth:

Healing belongs to God alone, and it is manifest in the name of Jesus Christ, the true healer.


Conclusion

I challenge you today to reflect:

  • Why could Allah not heal his prophet?

  • Why do healing miracles only follow the name of Jesus Christ?

Perhaps, it’s time to reconsider where true power and divine authority reside.

And His name is Jesus.

Why Did Allah Send Down Surah Al-Hijr 15:6 Calling the Prophet of Islam Insane?

Why Did Allah Send Down Surah Al-Hijr 15:6 Calling the Prophet of Islam Insane?

By Dr. Maxwell Shimba | Shimba Theological Institute

Dear brothers and sisters,

The Bible teaches us that “you will know them by their fruits” — words directly from the Gospel of Matthew 7:16-17:

“By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit.”

Today, I invite you to critically reflect with me: what fruit did Muhammad, the prophet of Islam, bear during his lifetime?

His conduct raised serious questions. One of the most troubling acts was his marriage to a six-year-old girl — an act no prophet before him ever committed. This, along with other actions, led his contemporaries to openly call him “insane” (MuwendaWazimu in Swahili).

And here’s the astonishing part: even the Quran itself records this accusation.

Surah Al-Hijr 15:6 says:

“And they say, ‘O you upon whom the message has been sent down, indeed you are mad (possessed/insane).’”

[Source: http://www.quranitukufu.net/015.html]

Notice — Muhammad did not deny this claim. He remained silent, which in itself speaks volumes.


Did Muhammad Himself Admit to Madness?

Historical Islamic sources further confirm these concerns. In Kitab al-Tabaqat al-Kabir by Ibn Sa’d, translated by S. Moinal Haq (vol. 1, p. 225), Muhammad is recorded confessing to his wife Khadija:

“O Khadija, I see lights and I hear voices, and I fear that I am mad.”

This is Muhammad’s own admission — raising a critical debate:

  • If Muhammad feared he was mad, what assurance do we have that his revelations were divine and not delusions?

  • Why would Allah send down a verse publicizing that his own prophet was being called insane?

  • Does God mock his prophets? Or is this evidence of an underlying problem with Muhammad’s claim to prophethood?


A Debate for Every Honest Seeker

If we’re to compare the fruits of true prophets — like Moses, David, and Jesus — none were ever accused of madness, nor did they fear for their own sanity. None married children. None doubted the origin of their revelations.

So, the debate stands:

  • Is Muhammad’s own confession and public accusations of madness consistent with genuine prophethood?

  • Why does the Quran preserve such a damaging claim, rather than refuting it outright?

  • Can a man fearing madness be trusted as the sole conveyor of God’s final message?


Conclusion

As people of faith and reason, we must question these matters openly. As Jesus taught, “you will know them by their fruits.” And by the fruit of Muhammad’s life — and by the words of his own book — troubling questions arise.

This is not to insult, but to invite honest debate, inquiry, and a search for truth.

The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is not a God of confusion.

The Quran Is Not the Word of Allah or God Almighty

The Quran Is Not the Word of Allah or God Almighty

By Dr. Maxwell Shimba | Shimba Theological Institute

Dear reader,

This is a serious matter for every Muslim around the world. Muslims have long insisted that the entire Quran is the word of Allah. But when you ask them, how exactly did Allah speak to Muhammad? — they go silent or resort to insults.

Today, I want to present clear evidence showing that the Quran is not the word of Allah. Join me as we carefully examine this together.


Proof Within the Quran Itself: Who Is Really Speaking?

Let’s look at what the Quran actually says — and you’ll realize it’s not solely Allah speaking.

1. Satan Speaks in the Quran
In Surah Al-Hijr 15:39, Satan himself says:

“My Lord, because You have put me in error, I will surely make disobedience attractive to them on earth, and I will mislead them all.”

So here, Satan is speaking within the Quran. How then can one claim the Quran is entirely Allah’s words, when even the devil has a voice in it?


2. Zakariya (Zechariah) Speaks in the Quran
In Surah Maryam 19:4, Zakariya says:

“My Lord, indeed my bones have weakened, and my head has filled with white, and never have I been in my supplication to You, my Lord, unhappy.”

Again — it’s not Allah speaking here, but Zakariya.


3. Mary (Maryam) Speaks in the Quran
In Surah Maryam 19:18, Mary says:

“Indeed, I seek refuge in the Most Merciful from you, [so leave me], if you should be fearing of Allah.”

If Muslims claim the Quran is purely Allah’s word — then how is Mary speaking here? Has Mary become Allah? Of course not. This is a serious theological contradiction.


4. Angels Speak in the Quran
In Surah Maryam 19:21, the angels say:

“So it will be; your Lord says, ‘It is easy for Me, and We will make him a sign to the people and a mercy from Us. And it is a matter [already] decreed.’”

Now angels too are speaking in the Quran. Again — if it’s Allah’s word alone, why do we hear from angels directly?


5. Jesus (Isa ibn Maryam) Speaks in the Quran
In Surah Maryam 19:36, Jesus says:

“Indeed, Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. That is a straight path.”

So even Jesus speaks in the Quran — but what’s striking is that Muhammad himself never speaks directly in the Quran, nor is his birth mentioned clearly in it. Isn’t this a serious inconsistency for Muslims to explain?


The Big Questions Muslims Must Answer

So I leave my Muslim friends with two simple questions:

  1. Who exactly is the speaker in the Quran?

  2. Whose words are really recorded in the Quran?

If you can answer these questions, with clear verses and without dodging, I am ready today to become a Muslim.

But the truth is evident: the Quran is a collection of speeches from different characters — Satan, prophets, Mary, angels, Jesus — making it impossible for Muslims to honestly claim it’s entirely the word of Allah.


Final Reflection

Muslims often challenge: “If you don’t believe the Quran is from God, then produce a verse like it.”
But when many voices other than Allah appear in the Quran — does this not weaken the claim that it’s purely divine revelation?

I leave this contradiction for Muslims to wrestle with, and I invite you instead to follow Jesus Christ, the Living Word of God, the Word of Life.

Come to the One who speaks eternal truth. His name is Jesus.

Did Muhammad Swear by Jesus and Confess That Jesus Will Judge with Justice?

Did Muhammad Swear by Jesus and Confess That Jesus Will Judge with Justice?

By Dr. Maxwell Shimba | Shimba Theological Institute

Dear reader,
Today, let’s engage in a thought-provoking debate about a surprising claim found within Islamic hadith literature: Muhammad swearing by Jesus and acknowledging His role as the final judge.

What Do the Islamic Hadith Say?

In the authentic hadith collection of Sahih Bukhari (Hadith No. 425, Volume 3), narrated by Abu Huraira, the Prophet of Islam Muhammad is reported to have said:

“I swear by Him in Whose hand my soul is, surely the Son of Mary will soon descend among you and will judge mankind with justice.”

Now, this raises an important theological question: if, as Islam teaches, one should only swear by God (Allah), why would Muhammad swear by Jesus?


Islamic Teaching on Swearing Oaths

In another hadith narrated by Abdallah bin ‘Umar and recorded in Sahih Bukhari, it is stated:

“Indeed, Allah forbids you from swearing by your fathers. Whoever must swear, let him swear by Allah or remain silent.”

This clearly commands Muslims to swear only by Allah — swearing by anyone or anything else is strictly forbidden.


The Debate

If Muhammad, the central figure of Islam, swore by Jesus, what does this signify?

Question:
If Muhammad truly believed Allah to be supreme, why did he swear by Jesus and declare that it is Jesus who will descend and judge the world with justice?

Follow-up Question:
If swearing must be done only by God (as the hadith commands), why would Muhammad swear by Jesus — unless he recognized the divinity of Jesus?

Implication:
This suggests a theological contradiction within the Islamic sources. Either:

  1. Muhammad committed an error against his own teachings (which would undermine the Islamic claim of his infallibility),
    or

  2. Muhammad acknowledged a divine status in Jesus Christ, consistent with Christian belief in Jesus as the Living God and final Judge.


Conclusion: Is Jesus Lord Even in Islamic Tradition?

This hadith opens an important window for dialogue. Even within Islamic tradition, Jesus is uniquely honored — not merely as a prophet, but as the one who will return and judge the world with justice. This is a role that, biblically and theologically, belongs to God alone.

So why follow Allah — who is not Yahweh — if even Muhammad points to Jesus as the ultimate judge?

I invite you, dear reader, to consider the person of Jesus Christ — the Living God, the Righteous Judge, and the Savior of the world.

MUHAMMAD, MAGIC, AND THE PRACTICE OF DIVINATION

MUHAMMAD, MAGIC, AND THE PRACTICE OF DIVINATION

By Dr. Maxwell Shimba
Shimba Theological Institute

Dear Reader,

Today, let’s carefully examine an important subject: Muhammad’s involvement in magic and the use of charms within Islam.

Did Prophet Muhammad Use Magic?

According to Islamic hadith sources, Prophet Muhammad is recorded to have used magic (known as ndumba in Swahili) against the evil eye and venomous creatures such as lizards. This is documented in Ibn Majah, Volume 5, Hadith No. 3525, p. 48.

Now, the question for us is — where in the Bible do we ever see God’s prophets and apostles using magic or charms for healing or protection? Did God lack the power to heal an evil eye or venom without resorting to magic?

Muhammad Gave Magic Charms to His Wife Aisha

Shockingly, Muhammad is said to have given his beloved wife Aisha a charm to protect her from the evil eye. This is recorded in Sahih Muslim, Volume 3, Book 24, Hadith Numbers 5445, 5447-5450, p. 1196.

At this point, one might ask — how different is this from witchcraft? The very fact that Muhammad would prepare and hand over charms reveals a reliance on practices foreign to biblical prophets.

Again — where in the Bible do we see prophets of God using magic or charms? The answer is nowhere.

Muhammad Believed in the Evil Eye and Used Amulets

Muhammad openly believed in the evil eye and even encouraged the use of protective amulets. Al-Tabari, Volume 39, p. 134 confirms this. Furthermore, two chapters of the Quran (Surahs 113 and 114) deal with protection from the evil eye according to Ibn Majah, Volume 5, Hadith 3517, p. 41.

Interestingly, these two chapters were not included in the Quranic collection of Ibn Mas’ud, a close companion and personal scribe of Muhammad. Ibn Mas’ud is reported to have said, “The two charms [Surah 113 and 114] are not part of the Book of God.” (See: The Fihrist, p. 57) — raising serious concerns about the authenticity of the current Quran.

Muhammad even encouraged his followers to learn the Quran from Ibn Mas’ud and three others. (Bukhari, Volume 6, Book 60, Hadith 521, p. 486-487)

Muhammad Taught That Magic Cures the Evil Eye

Several hadiths in Ibn Majah, Volume 5, Hadith 3510-3512, p. 41-42 confirm Muhammad’s teaching that charms could cure the evil eye.

Another practice called ‘al-badiri’ was also permitted by Muhammad as protection against the evil eye. (Ibn Majah, Volume 5, Hadith 3513-3518, p. 42-44)

Furthermore, Muhammad declared that the evil eye is a real phenomenon (Bukhari, Volume 7, Book 71, Hadith 636, p. 427; Hadith 827, p. 538; and Volume 4, Book 55, Hadith 590, p. 386) — and that it could be counteracted using magic.

Even more peculiar, Muhammad’s own hair was believed to have healing power for the evil eye. (Bukhari, Volume 7, Book 72, Hadith 784, p. 518.) After shaving his head, his followers scrambled to collect his hair, which Muhammad distributed generously. (Sahih Muslim, Volume 2, Book 7, Hadith 2991-2994, p. 656-657.)

Muhammad’s Odd Recommendation: Specific Dates for Healing

Muhammad also taught that if people were to perform certain acts on the 17th, 19th, or 21st day of the lunar month, it would heal every disease. (Abu Dawud, Volume 3, Hadith 3852, p. 1084.)

If Muhammad was truly a prophet of the one true God, why did he rely on magic?
If Allah is God, why did he permit such practices?
If Islam is from God, why does it allow and promote charms and magic?

An Invitation to the Living God

Dear reader — it is clear from both Islamic sources and the Bible that Jesus Christ alone heals, protects, and saves without the use of charms or sorcery. He is alive today and calls you to receive Him as your Savior and Lord.

Come to Jesus, the Living God.

May the Lord bless you richly.

The Two Deadliest Killers in Muslim Lands: Mosquitoes and the Quran

The Two Deadliest Killers in Muslim Lands: Mosquitoes and the Quran

By Dr. Maxwell Shimba | Shimba Theological Institute

In the great tragedy of human suffering, two unlikely culprits stand out as relentless executioners in the Muslim world: the unassuming mosquito and the Quran itself. One kills silently by instinct; the other stirs men to violence under the guise of sacred duty. Together, they leave trails of blood across history and geography.

The Mosquito: Nature’s Indifferent Killer

Every year, over 600,000 people fall victim to mosquito-borne diseases such as malaria, dengue fever, yellow fever, and chikungunya. Out of those deaths, an estimated 350,000 to 420,000 occur within Muslim-majority nations. Why so many? Because mosquitoes, blind to race and creed, thrive in warm climates plagued by poor infrastructure and neglected healthcare systems. They care nothing for your faith, your five daily prayers, or your fasting. They seek blood — and they find it where poverty, corruption, and ignorance keep modern medicine at bay.

The Quran: Death by Doctrine

But if mosquitoes kill by nature, the Quran has inspired death by ideology for over 1,400 years. Chief among its blood-soaked instructions is Surah 9:5, infamously known as the Sword Verse:

"Then when the sacred months have passed, slay the pagans wherever you find them, and seize them, besiege them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem of war…”

This single verse, among others, has served as divine license for relentless wars of conquest, forced conversions, sectarian killings, and indiscriminate bloodshed. From the earliest Islamic expansions into Arabia, Persia, and the Levant to today’s modern terror groups and civil conflicts, Muslims have slaughtered one another — and others — invoking Allah’s name and these same ancient verses.

It’s a cruel irony that Muslims die in greater numbers from these Quran-sanctioned wars than from any external enemy. Estimates suggest 200,000 to 500,000 Muslims perish each year in conflicts where both sides shout “Allahu Akbar” before detonating bombs, firing bullets, or beheading captives. Sunni versus Shia, extremist versus moderate — all claiming scriptural authority while contributing to a mounting death toll.

The Contrast of Instinct and Indoctrination

A mosquito injects a parasite. The Quran injects dogma. The former acts on primal instinct, the latter on learned zealotry. Yet the results are the same: funerals, grief, and shattered communities.

The mosquito, a simple insect, neither hates nor reasons. The Quran, revered as divine by over a billion, embeds doctrines of violence against dissenters, apostates, and rival sects. And while the world mounts scientific campaigns against malaria and dengue, the spiritual infection of militant Islamism remains largely unchallenged in many religious institutions, often justified under claims of preserving sacred tradition.

In Conclusion: Time to Break the Cycle

If the Grim Reaper had two tools custom-made for trimming Muslim populations, it wouldn’t be rifles or pandemics. It would be the buzzing mosquito and a bloodstained Quran, flapping in the hands of the devout and the fanatical alike.

The God of the Bible, the God of peace and justice, commands His followers to choose life, love their enemies, and pursue peace with all men (Hebrews 12:14; Matthew 5:9). Meanwhile, the Quran preserves verses that champion endless struggle against non-Muslims and even fellow Muslims of differing interpretations.

It’s time for Muslims everywhere to stop, reflect, and consider the spiritual chains they bear. The Creator of Heaven and Earth does not delight in death and destruction but in repentance and reconciliation through His Son, Jesus Christ — the Prince of Peace.

As Proverbs 14:12 warns:
“There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death.”

Choose life. Choose truth. Choose Jesus.



Debate Outline: Was Muhammad a True Prophet of God?

Debate Outline: Was Muhammad a True Prophet of God?

By Dr. Maxwell Shimba | Shimba Theological Institute


I. Introduction

  • Brief introduction of the topic: examining the prophetic claims of Muhammad.

  • Establish the importance of testing prophetic claims against scripture, history, and logic.

  • Declare the objective: to demonstrate through evidence that Muhammad was not a true prophet of the Most High God.


II. Historical Background of Muhammad’s “Call”

  • A. Withdrawal to Mount Hira at age 38 due to hardship.

  • B. The alleged first revelation at age 40 by a being called Jibril.

  • C. Describe the experience (Sahih al-Bukhari, Book 1, Hadith 2 & Hadith 1505)

    • Bell-like sounds

    • Uncontrollable sweating even on cold days

    • Hallucinatory encounters

Debate Question:
Do these signs align with biblical prophetic experiences or demonic manifestations?


III. Theological and Scriptural Contradictions

  • A. Quran 53:2–6 claims divine origin of Muhammad’s words.

  • B. Compare with how biblical prophets received revelation — clarity, peace, no bizarre physical trauma.

Debate Challenge:
Can Islam produce a prophetic precedent in the Old or New Testament that mirrors Muhammad’s experiences?


IV. Contradictory Statements within Islam

  • A. Surah Al-Kafirun (Quran 109)

    • Muhammad himself admits Muslims don’t worship the same God as Christians and Jews.

  • B. Contrast with Surah Al-Baqarah 2:62

    • Claims Jews, Christians, and Sabians worship the same God.

Debate Question:
How can one faith claim both theological exclusivity and inclusivity without contradiction?


V. The Nature of Muhammad’s Revelations

  • A. No verifiable witnesses to most of his revelations.

  • B. Initial suicidal tendencies after early encounters (Hadith references).

  • C. Revelations conveniently favoring Muhammad’s personal desires (e.g., marital privileges, war booty, etc.)

Debate Challenge:
Do these characteristics reflect a true servant of the holy, impartial God of Scripture?


VI. The Prophetic Test in the Bible

  • A. Deuteronomy 18:20-22 — test of a prophet: accuracy and alignment with God’s character.

  • B. Examine Muhammad’s failed prophecies and teachings contrary to biblical values.

Debate Point:
By biblical standards, Muhammad fails the test of a prophet.


VII. Conclusion

  • Summarize evidence:

    • Historical inconsistencies

    • Theological contradictions

    • Unbiblical nature of revelations

    • Failed prophetic test

Final Challenge:
If Muhammad fails both biblical and logical standards of prophecy, how can he be accepted as a prophet of the Most High God? The only trustworthy revelation is through Jesus Christ, the final and complete Word of God (Hebrews 1:1-3).



MUHAMMAD: THE FALSE PROPHET

MUHAMMAD: THE FALSE PROPHET

By Dr. Maxwell Shimba | Shimba Theological Institute

Muslims will often defend the prophetic claims of Muhammad, but many of us, by the weight of historical and theological evidence, know without a doubt that Muhammad was never, and could never have been, a true prophet of the Most High God. His so-called "prophethood" was nothing more than a fabricated office — a concoction akin to folk poetry and ancient Arabian mysticism.

THE HISTORICAL ACCOUNT:
When we examine the history of Muhammad, we discover that at the age of 38, burdened by the difficulties of life, he abandoned his home and withdrew to the caves of Mount Hira near Mecca. There, when he turned 40, he claimed to have been visited by a being Muslims today call the angel Jibril (Gabriel).

According to Islamic tradition, specifically Sahih al-Bukhari (Book 1, Hadith 2, and Al-Lu’lu wal Marjan, Book 3, Page 874, Hadith 1505), Aisha (the mother of the believers) narrated:

"Al-Harith ibn Hisham asked the Messenger of Allah: 'O Messenger of Allah, how does the revelation come to you?' The Messenger of Allah replied, 'Sometimes it comes to me like the ringing of a bell — and that is the hardest upon me — then it departs, and I have grasped what is said. At other times, the angel comes to me in the form of a man, and speaks to me, and I grasp what he says.' Aisha said, 'Indeed, I saw it descend upon him on a very cold day, yet when the state left him, his forehead would be dripping with sweat.'”

Now — does this experience resemble a divine encounter with the Almighty God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob? Or does it sound like demonic possession or delirium?

THE QURANIC CONTRADICTION:
Qur'an 53:2–6 (Surat An-Najm) says:

"Your companion (Muhammad) has neither gone astray nor erred, nor does he speak from [his own] inclination. It is nothing but a revelation revealed, taught to him by one mighty in power — one of soundness, and he rose to [his] true form."

But when we compare this to the manner of true prophetic revelations in the Bible — where prophets received God's Word in clarity, holiness, and peace — it becomes obvious this was no divine encounter. Nowhere did Moses, Elijah, Isaiah, or the Lord Jesus Himself fall into seizures, hear bell-like noises, or sweat profusely under stress when receiving God’s Word.

THE SPIRITUAL ANALYSIS:
The conditions surrounding Muhammad’s so-called “revelations” parallel ancient accounts of spirit possession rather than divine prophecy. Even Muhammad himself once confessed he feared being possessed by an evil spirit when these episodes began.

Moreover, the inconsistencies between Qur'anic statements about God and the clear, consistent, holy nature of the God of the Bible reveal that Allah is not Jehovah (YHWH) — the eternal, unchanging God of Israel.

THE FINAL VERDICT:
Muhammad was not a prophet of the true God. His revelations came from questionable sources, inconsistent experiences, and contradicted both history and Scripture. Christianity stands firm on the unshakable foundation of God's revealed Word — in the Torah, the Prophets, and ultimately fulfilled in Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God.

“For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus.” (1 Timothy 2:5)


DEBATE CHALLENGE:
To any Muslim scholar, cleric, or apologist:
Explain how a man who feared demonic possession, received revelations through bell sounds and physical torment, contradicts biblical prophecy, and created a religion by force and fear, can be considered a true prophet of the Holy God.

If your religion is truth — face this question honestly.

MUHAMMAD CONFESSES THAT ALLAH IS NOT THE GOD OF THE GOSPEL AND THE TORAH, BUT A GOD OF PAGANS

Wednesday, August 10, 2016

MUHAMMAD CONFESSES THAT ALLAH IS NOT THE GOD OF THE GOSPEL AND THE TORAH, BUT A GOD OF PAGANS

Do Christians and Muslims worship the same God?
Is Allah a pagan deity?

Dear readers, once again, the Prophet of Allah himself confessed that Christians and Muslims do not worship the same God, and that Allah is a pagan god.

In this article, we will examine various evidences proving that Allah is not the God of Adam, Moses, and all the prophets mentioned in the Holy Bible.

From Surat Al-Kafirun, which was revealed in Mecca, Muhammad openly acknowledges with his own mouth that Christians and Jews do not worship the same God as the Muslims do.

Surah 109:

  1. Say: O disbelievers!

  2. I do not worship what you worship.

  3. Nor do you worship what I worship.

  4. And I will not worship what you worship.

  5. Nor will you worship what I worship.

  6. To you be your religion, and to me, mine.

This Surah presents many clear problems, revealing that the claim made by Muslims — that Christians and Muslims worship the same God — is false and lacks any sound evidence.

FIRST PROBLEM:
Who exactly is this Surah addressing?
(a) The People of the Book (Jews, Christians, and perhaps the Sabians)?
(b) The pagans of Mecca?

The Quran fails to clarify which group Muhammad was speaking to in this case.

SECOND PROBLEM:
Even if it were addressing either group (a) or (b) above, this Surah 109 is full of contradictions when compared to various other Quranic verses claiming that Christians, Jews, and others all worship the same God as the Muslims.

For example:

Surat Al-Baqara 2:62
“Indeed, those who believed and those who were Jews or Christians or Sabians — those who believe in Allah and the Last Day and do righteousness — will have their reward with their Lord, and no fear will there be concerning them, nor will they grieve.”

Surat Al-Baqara 2:139
“Say, ‘Do you argue with us about Allah while He is our Lord and your Lord? For us are our deeds, and for you are your deeds.”

MUHAMMAD CONFESSES THAT ALLAH IS NOT THE GOD OF THE GOSPEL AND THE TORAH, BUT A GOD OF PAGANS
By Dr. Maxwell Shimba | Shimba Theological Institute

Do Christians and Muslims Worship the Same God?
Is Allah a Pagan God?

Dear readers, once again, the so-called Prophet of Islam, Muhammad, openly confessed that Christians and Muslims do not worship the same God — and that Allah is, in fact, a pagan deity.

In this brief article, we shall review evidence that Allah is not the God of Adam, Moses, and the prophets mentioned in the Holy Bible.

Evidence from the Quran itself:

In Surat Al-Kafirun — a chapter said to be revealed in Mecca — Muhammad personally declared that Jews and Christians do not worship the same deity as Muslims.

Surah 109 says:
1. Say: O disbelievers!
2. I do not worship what you worship.
3. Nor do you worship what I worship.
4. And I will not worship what you worship.
5. Nor will you worship what I worship.
6. To you be your religion, and to me, mine.

This passage alone brings forth significant contradictions and exposes the false Islamic claim that Christians, Jews, and Muslims worship the same God.

THE FIRST PROBLEM:
Who is this Surah addressing?
(a) The People of the Book (Jews, Christians, and perhaps Sabians)?
(b) The pagans of Mecca?

The Quran gives no clarification about which group Muhammad was speaking to here — whether to idol worshippers or to those recognized as monotheistic communities in Arabia.

THE SECOND PROBLEM:
Even if we assume it is directed at either group (a) or (b), this Surah 109 openly contradicts numerous Quranic verses claiming that Jews, Christians, and others worship the same God as Muslims.

For example:

Surat Al-Baqara 2:62
"Indeed, those who believed and those who were Jews or Christians or Sabians — those who believe in Allah and the Last Day and do righteousness — will have their reward with their Lord, and no fear will there be concerning them, nor will they grieve."

Surat Al-Baqara 2:139
"Say, 'Do you argue with us about Allah while He is our Lord and your Lord? For us are our deeds, and for you are your deeds.'"

These verses show that Muhammad at times claimed all these religious groups had one and the same God — while elsewhere he refutes and rejects their worship entirely. This exposes the inconsistency and theological confusion within the Quranic text.

CONCLUSION:
It is evident from both internal contradictions within the Quran and from biblical testimony that Allah is not the God of the Bible — not the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, nor the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

The God of the Bible is a God of truth, light, and righteousness — not a god of confusion, contradiction, or pagan origins. As Christians, we must be bold to declare this truth in love and call our Muslim brothers and sisters out of spiritual deception into the glorious light of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

“For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.”
— 1 Corinthians 14:33

And let it be known that no man can serve two masters. The God of the Holy Scriptures and the deity of Islam are not one and the same.


Great — let’s continue and complete it smoothly in English for your blog post:


...These verses show that Muhammad at times claimed all these religious groups had one and the same God.

THE CONTRADICTION:
If according to Surah 109 Muhammad states clearly: “I do not worship what you worship, nor do you worship what I worship,” then how can the same Quran later claim in Surah 2:62 and Surah 2:139 that Jews and Christians worship the same God as Muslims?

This blatant inconsistency reveals a deep theological confusion within the Quran itself — demonstrating that Allah, as presented by Muhammad, is not the God of the Bible.

THE HISTORICAL REALITY:
The term “Allah” was well known in pre-Islamic pagan Arabia. It was the name of the chief god of the Kaaba, worshipped alongside numerous other deities like Al-Lat, Al-Uzza, and Manat. Historical evidence confirms that Muhammad did not introduce the name Allah but simply adopted it from existing Arabian pagan practices.

THE BIBLICAL STANDPOINT:
The Holy Bible — both the Torah and the Gospel — reveals a living, personal, and holy God: Yahweh (Jehovah), who makes covenants with His people, manifests Himself through prophets, and ultimately in the person of Jesus Christ (John 1:1, 14). Nowhere in the Bible is God presented as a distant, unknowable being like Allah of the Quran, nor is there a record of Him ever commanding child marriages, sex slavery, or unjust killings as attributed to Muhammad’s Allah in Islamic texts.

CONCLUSION:
Based on both the internal contradictions of the Quran and historical facts, it is evident that Allah is not the God of Adam, Abraham, Moses, and Jesus. Allah is a god of pagan origins, rebranded by Muhammad for his own religious movement.

Final Thought:
Christianity offers a God who is relational, holy, and consistent. Jesus Christ, God manifest in the flesh, came not to enslave but to set us free. He invites all to know Him personally and truthfully.

“For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus.” (1 Timothy 2:5)

I urge all my Muslim brothers and sisters to open their hearts and test these truths. The God of the Bible calls you into relationship, not rigid rituals and contradictions.

Are All Babies Born Muslim? A Theological and Logical Refutation

Are All Babies Born Muslim? A Theological and Logical Refutation

By Dr. Maxwell Shimba | Shimba Theological Institute


Introduction

In the realm of religious claims, few are as puzzling and logically inconsistent as Islam’s assertion that every human being is born a Muslim. According to Sahih Muslim, Book 33, Hadith 6426, “Every child is born upon the fitrah (Islamic natural disposition), and it is his parents who make him a Jew, a Christian, or a Magian.”

This assertion claims that belief in Islam is the natural state of humanity from birth — a convenient yet absurd claim designed to promote indoctrination rather than reasoned faith. As a theologian and defender of Biblical truth, I, Dr. Maxwell Shimba, feel compelled to dissect this claim theologically, scientifically, and logically.


Debate Point 1: Where Is the Evidence?

If, as Islam claims, every child is born a Muslim:

  • Why does no child possess any innate awareness or understanding of Allah, the Qur’an, or Islamic doctrine?

  • Why do children of Christian, Jewish, Hindu, or secular families not naturally gravitate toward Islamic belief?

Biblical Response:
The Bible makes it clear that while mankind is made in God’s image (Genesis 1:27), we are born with a fallen nature (Psalm 51:5) — not with a pre-programmed religious identity. Furthermore, Ecclesiastes 7:29 states, “God made mankind upright, but men have gone in search of many schemes.” This places moral agency in the hands of each person, not some fabricated natural disposition to Islam.


Debate Point 2: The Absurdity of “Muslim Sperm”

Some Islamic scholars and preachers have gone so far as to claim that even sperm is Muslim. This statement not only contradicts elementary biology but makes a mockery of logic and reason.

Logical Challenge:
How can a microscopic cell, incapable of consciousness, emotion, morality, or decision-making, hold any religious belief? Cells do not practice religion, pray, or contemplate eternity. To suggest otherwise is to abandon the very intellect with which God endowed humanity.


Debate Point 3: The Danger of Indoctrination

This flawed doctrine serves a strategic purpose: it frames Islam as the default, thereby making apostasy appear as rebellion against one's own "natural" state. It is a theological tactic to guilt and shame adherents into submission.

Contrast with Christianity:
Christianity respects the sanctity of free will. Jesus calls people to choose Him freely (John 3:16, Revelation 3:20). Faith in Christ is not coerced by birth, but invited by grace.


Debate Point 4: Divine Consistency and Fairness

If God, in His wisdom, made all children Muslim by birth — yet allows them to be raised in other faiths and then punishes them for leaving Islam later — how is that just?

Biblical Principle:
God is perfectly just (Deuteronomy 32:4). The Bible teaches that judgment is based on personal choice, willful rejection of truth, and moral responsibility — not on circumstances of birth.


Conclusion: A Call to Reason and Truth

The Islamic claim that “every baby is born Muslim” lacks biblical, logical, and scientific foundation. It is a relic of religious indoctrination aimed at controlling thought and identity from infancy.

The True Biblical Position:
God created mankind with the freedom to seek, reason, and believe. Every human being is called to discover the truth of the Gospel — that salvation comes through faith in Jesus Christ alone (Acts 4:12). The offer of eternal life is open to all who choose to accept it.


Proverbs 12:22 boldly declares:
"The Lord detests lying lips, but He delights in people who are trustworthy."

Let us abandon myths and return to the truth of God’s Word. Islam’s desperate claim of universal Muslim birth is yet another example of religious propaganda masquerading as theology.

To my Muslim friends: the invitation remains — come to Jesus Christ, the Way, the Truth, and the Life (John 14:6). Reject deception, and embrace the eternal truth found only in Him.

Are All Babies Born Muslim?

Are All Babies Born Muslim? A Theological and Logical Refutation

By Dr. Maxwell Shimba | Shimba Theological Institute

Introduction:
In the ever-baffling world of Islamic theology, there exists a claim so irrational, so detached from both logic and divine revelation, that it demands public scrutiny. According to Sahih Muslim, Book 33, Hadith 6426, Islam teaches that every child is born a Muslim. Yes, without understanding, choice, or knowledge — supposedly born reciting the Shahada in their hearts, ready to embrace the ummah.

But is this claim credible? Is it consistent with divine revelation, reason, or human experience? As a theologian committed to Biblical truth and intellectual honesty, I, Dr. Maxwell Shimba, intend to dissect and expose this fallacy.


Islamic Claim: Every Baby Is Born a Muslim

Sahih Muslim 6426 states:

“Every child is born upon the fitrah (Islamic natural disposition), and it is his parents who make him a Jew, a Christian, or a Magian.”

The implication is clear: humans are created predisposed to Islam, and any deviation is external corruption.
But this proposition fails on several levels.


Debate Point 1: Where’s the Evidence?

If every child is born Muslim:

  • Why can’t a newborn profess or understand Islam?

  • Why does Islamic theology conveniently blame parents for religious diversity?

  • Why did God give humans free will if belief is pre-programmed?

Biblical Refutation:
Ecclesiastes 7:29“God made mankind upright, but men have gone in search of many schemes.”
Nowhere in Scripture does it teach that humanity is born into a preloaded religious identity. Rather, mankind is created with the ability to choose, reason, and seek after God (Acts 17:27).


Debate Point 2: The Absurdity of “Muslim Sperm”

Some Islamic preachers have further exaggerated this claim by stating that “even sperm is Muslim”. This notion not only contradicts established biology but mocks the very intelligence God endowed humanity with.

Logical Challenge:
How can a microscopic cell — devoid of consciousness, morality, or belief — possess religious affiliation? It’s religious mythology masquerading as theology.


Debate Point 3: The Danger of Indoctrination

This claim facilitates one of Islam’s gravest tactics: indoctrination through fear and shame.
By insisting that Islam is the natural state, anyone who leaves it is branded an apostate worthy of punishment — a doctrine completely foreign to the teachings of Jesus Christ.

John 8:32“Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”

Christianity exalts free will, not forced conformity.


Final Challenge to Muslims

If you genuinely believe in logic, conscience, and divine justice:

  • Why perpetuate a doctrine that no infant can verify?

  • Why silence dissent with threats rather than reasoned debate?

  • Why not test these claims by the light of Scripture and reason?

Proverbs 12:22 says: “The Lord detests lying lips, but He delights in people who are trustworthy.”

The claim that all babies are born Muslim is a spiritual con job designed to bind souls in chains of fear. Reject it. Embrace the liberating truth of Jesus Christ — the only sinless Savior and the Son of the living God.


Conclusion:

Islam’s assertion that every baby is born a Muslim is not only unbiblical and unscientific, but an affront to human dignity and divine truth.
At Shimba Theological Institute, we boldly declare:
There is no revert, only converts. Truth is not inherited — it is discovered. And only in Christ is true salvation found.

Jesus Christ Is God: A Divine Truth That Cannot Be Denied

By Dr. Maxwell Shimba | Shimba Theological Institute

One of the most vital declarations in Christian theology is this: Jesus Christ is God manifested in human flesh. He is not merely a prophet or a moral teacher — He is the visible image of the invisible God, as Scripture powerfully affirms.

Jesus Demands the Same Honor as God

In John 5:23, Jesus made a bold, divine claim:

“That all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.”

No prophet, no teacher, no angel has ever demanded such honor — only God Himself is worthy of it. Jesus, therefore, unmistakably placed Himself as equal with God.


When You See Jesus, You See God

In John 14:9, Jesus declared:

“Whoever has seen Me has seen the Father.”

This is a staggering statement. The incarnate Jesus is the full revelation of the invisible God. Not a reflection or mere representative — but God Himself clothed in humanity.


The Entire Bible Confirms His Divinity

Scripture consistently testifies to this truth:

  • John 1:1,14“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God… and the Word became flesh.”

  • Colossians 2:9“For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form.”

  • Titus 2:13“…our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ.”


Rejecting Jesus' Divinity Is Rejecting God

Jesus Himself warned in John 8:24:

“If you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins.”

Believing in the divinity of Christ is not optional — it is the very foundation of saving faith.


Final Word

At Shimba Theological Institute, we boldly proclaim this eternal truth:
Jesus Christ is God, the sinless Savior, the eternal Word, and the Lord of all creation. He alone offers salvation, and to deny His deity is to reject the living God.

Embrace Him today, for He is the only way, the truth, and the life.

Jesus Christ Is God Manifest in the Flesh: A Theological Declaration

By Dr. Maxwell Shimba | Shimba Theological Institute

One of the most profound and foundational truths of Christian theology is the divinity of Jesus Christ. He was not merely a prophet, a teacher, or a moral leader — He is God incarnate, the visible image of the invisible God. The Bible does not leave this truth to speculation; it declares it plainly and unapologetically.


Jesus Demands Equal Honor with God

In John 5:23, Jesus makes a striking statement:

“That all should honor the Son just as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.”

This is no trivial claim. Jesus demands the same honor due to God Himself. No mere prophet in biblical history ever dared to ask for the same reverence given to Yahweh. Isaiah, Moses, David — none spoke such words. This alone establishes Jesus as far more than a human messenger. He is worthy of divine honor because He is divine.


Jesus Reveals Himself as the Visible Image of God

In John 14:9, Jesus answers Philip’s request to see the Father with these profound words:

“Anyone who has seen Me has seen the Father.”

This declaration confirms the Christian doctrine of the Incarnation — that God took on human flesh and walked among His creation in the person of Jesus Christ. He is the exact representation of God's being (Hebrews 1:3), not a reflection or a symbol, but God Himself made manifest.


The Biblical Witness to Christ’s Divinity

The testimony of Scripture, from the Gospels to the Epistles, consistently proclaims the deity of Christ:

  • John 1:1,14“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God… and the Word became flesh.”

  • Colossians 2:9“For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form.”

  • Titus 2:13“Looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ.”


Conclusion: The Only Name That Saves

Recognizing Jesus as God is not optional for those seeking salvation. As Jesus declared in John 8:24:

“If you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins.”

At Shimba Theological Institute, we boldly affirm this eternal truth: Jesus Christ is the living God, the eternal Word, the sinless Savior, and the only hope for mankind.

To reject His divinity is to reject God Himself.

Believe in Him today — and you shall live.



Is Angel Gabriel the Same as Jibreel of Islam? A Theological Examination

By Dr. Maxwell Shimba

One of the most perplexing contradictions between the Christian Gospel and the Islamic Qur'an lies in the messages allegedly delivered by the angelic figure known as Gabriel. In the Bible, Gabriel is a trusted messenger of the Most High God, consistently proclaiming the truth of God’s eternal plan. However, in Islam, Jibreel — claimed to be the same angel — delivers conflicting revelations that deny foundational truths established centuries earlier. Can both be the same being? Theologically, the answer is a resounding no.


Gabriel’s Message to Mary: Jesus is the Son of God

In Luke 1:26-35, the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a virgin named Mary. His message was clear and unambiguous:

“The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. Therefore the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God.” (Luke 1:35)

Here, Gabriel affirms the divinity of Christ before His birth. Not metaphorically, but ontologically — Jesus is the literal Son of God, conceived by the Holy Spirit, not through human means.


Jibreel’s Message to Muhammad: Jesus is Not the Son of God

Centuries later, Muhammad claimed that the same angel, now referred to as Jibreel, delivered the Qur'an to him. Yet in Surah Al-Ikhlas 112:3, this Jibreel vehemently denies God having a son:

“He neither begets nor is born.”

Further, in Surah Maryam 19:88-92, the Qur'an states that claiming God has a son is a monstrous blasphemy.


Can a True Messenger of God Contradict Himself?

This poses an irreconcilable theological problem. The God of the Bible is unchanging:

“God is not a man, that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should change His mind.” (Numbers 23:19)

If Gabriel was truly sent by God in both instances, his message would remain consistent, as God does not contradict Himself. Therefore, either one message is false — or these are two entirely different spirits.


Testing the Spirits

The Bible warns against deception from masquerading spirits:

“Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God.” (1 John 4:1)

If one “Gabriel” proclaims Jesus as God’s Son, and another “Jibreel” denies this, only one can be the true messenger. The evidence suggests that the Jibreel of Islam is not the same as the Gabriel of the Bible, but a deceptive spirit aiming to corrupt the Gospel’s central truth.


Conclusion: A Call to Discernment

This glaring contradiction should stir the hearts of sincere seekers. The real Gabriel proclaimed the incarnation of the Son of God as the hope of humanity. The contradictory message of Jibreel opposes this eternal truth, and by biblical measure, is not from God.

I urge readers — test these claims, study the Scriptures, and recognize that Jesus is the eternal Son of God, the only way to salvation.

“I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6)

10 Clear Reasons Why Muhammad Was Never a True Prophet of God

10 Clear Reasons Why Muhammad Was Never a True Prophet of God

By Dr. Maxwell Shimba

Throughout history, God’s true prophets have demonstrated integrity, holiness, compassion, and unwavering obedience to divine moral standards. From Noah to Moses, David to Isaiah — none ever violated the sacred laws they proclaimed. However, when we examine the character and actions of Muhammad through Islamic sources themselves, it becomes evident that he could not have been a true prophet of the living God. Here are ten undeniable reasons:

1. A Prophet of God Never Orders the Stoning of Others for Rejecting Him — But Muhammad Did.

Evidence: Ibn Ishaq, page 764
No prophet of God ever commanded the execution of those who disbelieved in him. They preached repentance and left judgment to God. Muhammad, however, ordered executions for disbelief.


2. A Prophet of God Would Never Marry the Wife of His Adopted Son — But Muhammad Did.

When Zayd, Muhammad’s adopted son, divorced his wife Zaynab, Muhammad married her — something no prophet of God ever permitted for themselves.
Qur'anic Reference: Surah Al-Ahzab 33:37


3. A Prophet Would Never Give a Woman as a Gift to Satisfy Another Man’s Desires — But Muhammad Did.

Proof: Sahih Al-Bukhari Vol. 1, Hadith 371
This act dehumanizes women, treating them as property — a practice never endorsed by any true prophet.


4. No Prophet Ever Violated the Sanctity of Family, Let Alone His Own Aunt — But Muhammad Did.

Proof: Kanz Al-Ummal, Hadith Chapter 13, Page 274
This shameful act stands in stark contradiction to the purity expected of a prophet.


5. A Prophet of God Would Never Slaughter Hundreds for Disbelief — But Muhammad Did.

Proof: Sahih Muslim Hadith 4390
Ordering the massacre of 800 men in a single night for not accepting his claim disqualifies him as a prophet of mercy.


6. A Prophet Would Never Order the Killing of a Woman for a Trivial Offense — But Muhammad Did.

Evidence: Ibn Ishaq, Pages 819 & 995
The sanctity of life — especially women — is upheld by all true prophets, yet Muhammad transgressed this repeatedly.


7. No Prophet Would Stone a Pregnant Woman Begging for Mercy — But Muhammad Did.

Proof: Sahih Muslim, Book 17, Hadith 4206
True prophets lead with mercy and redemption, not cruelty.


8. A Prophet Would Never Command Forced Conversions or Kill Those Who Refuse — But Muhammad Did.

Proof: Surah At-Tawbah 9:5
This command alone exposes the violent expansionist nature of early Islam, a sharp contrast to Biblical prophets.


9. No Prophet Would Keep and Use Sex Slaves — But Muhammad Did.

Despite having numerous wives, Muhammad kept and used sex slaves, a violation of God’s moral laws regarding human dignity.


10. No Prophet Would Marry a Child and Consummate the Marriage at Nine — But Muhammad Did.

Proof: Sahih Muslim, Hadith 3309
This act alone invalidates any claim to divine moral authority.


Final Warning and Invitation

If you still believe in this man as God’s messenger after knowing these facts from Islamic sources themselves, understand that you are embracing what God condemns.
The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob — and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ — would never send such a man. The earlier you accept Jesus Christ, the true and sinless Son of God, the better. He alone lived without sin, gave His life as a ransom for all, and rose again for our justification.

Reject deception. Choose eternal life. Accept Jesus today.
