Surah 2:191-193
... Drive them out where they have driven you out...

It doesn't matter that Muslims first conquered violently Andalusia etc etc.
They want it back.

Additionally this passage makes it clear it's about religion. You can't separate state and religion in Islam.

Islam wants to enforce worship of Allah anywhere. Especially in places of significance to other groups, like Constantinople, Rome, New York.

When you hear someone arguing that the outrage in Gaza is not religious, it's clear they have no idea what they're talking about.
Everything is religion.

Conquering and subduing the West is an Islamic duty. Violence is acceptable to do that.

Hadith

"حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، حَدَّثَنِي مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ، قَالَ كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَشَخَصَ بِبَصَرِهِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏"‏ هَذَا أَوَانٌ يُخْتَلَسُ الْعِلْمُ مِنَ النَّاسِ حَتَّى لاَ يَقْدِرُوا مِنْهُ عَلَى شَيْءٍ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ زِيَادُ بْنُ لَبِيدٍ الأَنْصَارِيُّ كَيْفَ يُخْتَلَسُ مِنَّا وَقَدْ قَرَأْنَا الْقُرْآنَ فَوَاللَّهِ لَنَقْرَأَنَّهُ وَلَنُقْرِئَنَّهُ نِسَاءَنَا وَأَبْنَاءَنَا ‏.‏ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ ثَكِلَتْكَ أُمُّكَ يَا زِيَادُ إِنْ كُنْتُ لأَعُدُّكَ مِنْ فُقَهَاءِ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ هَذِهِ التَّوْرَاةُ وَالإِنْجِيلُ عِنْدَ الْيَهُودِ وَالنَّصَارَى فَمَاذَا تُغْنِي عَنْهُمْ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ جُبَيْرٌ فَلَقِيتُ عُبَادَةَ بْنَ الصَّامِتِ قُلْتُ أَلاَ تَسْمَعُ إِلَى مَا يَقُولُ أَخُوكَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ بِالَّذِي قَالَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ قَالَ صَدَقَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ إِنْ شِئْتَ لأُحَدِّثَنَّكَ بِأَوَّلِ عِلْمٍ يُرْفَعُ مِنَ النَّاسِ الْخُشُوعُ يُوشِكُ أَنْ تَدْخُلَ مَسْجِدَ جَمَاعَةٍ فَلاَ تَرَى فِيهِ رَجُلاً خَاشِعًا ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ ‏.‏ وَمُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ ثِقَةٌ عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْحَدِيثِ وَلاَ نَعْلَمُ أَحَدًا تَكَلَّمَ فِيهِ غَيْرَ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيِدٍ الْقَطَّانِ وَقَدْ رُوِيَ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ نَحْوُ هَذَا ‏.‏ وَرَوَى بَعْضُهُمْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَوْفِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏.‏"

Narrated Jubair bin Nufair:
from Abu Ad-Darda who said: "We were with the Prophet (ﷺ) when he raised his sight to the sky, then he said: 'This is the time when knowledge is to be taken from the people, until what remains of it shall not amount to anything." So Ziyad bin Labid Al-Ansari said: 'How will it be taken from us while we recite the Qur'an. By Allah we recite it, and our women and children recite it?' He (ﷺ) said: 'May you be bereaved of your mother O Ziyad! I used to consider you among the Fuqaha of the people of Al-Madinah. The Tawrah and Injil are with the Jews and Christians, but what do they avail of them?'" Jubair said: "So I met 'Ubadah bin As-Samit and said to him: 'Have you not heard what your brother Abu Ad-Darda said?' Then I informed him of what Abu Ad-Darda said. He said: 'Abu Ad-Darda spoke the truth. If you wish, we shall narrated to you about the first knowledge to be removed from the people: It is Khushu', soon you will enter the congregational Masjid, but not see any man in it with Khushu'.'"

Congratulations, y'all, that you can now find the same recitation almost all around the world.

There were classical Islamic scholars that held to the position the the Torah and the injeel were preserved and thereby also authoritative in the time of Muhammad.
They argued the same way Christians now argue for the preservation of the Bible.

Surah 24:33
To whom is Allah going to be merciful?
To the Muslims who forced their slave girls into prostitution or to the slave girls who were forced into prostitution by their Muslim masters?
#preservation

Surah 44:9
#preservation
#hafs
Grammatically, without the addition "Allah" the subject of glorification is "his messenger".

Textual criticism suggests that "Allah" is added to make clear to whom glorification is directed.
It makes from textual criticism no sense that that word would be removed. It makes sense that it would be added.

Why do Christians read the Old Testament / the Tanakh?
Because the New Testament can not be read without it.
The Tanakh is referenced thousands of times by the New Testament.

The claim that the Tanakh is corrupted is not acknowledged by any of those references or any statement by Jesus, apostles, etc.

The prophets of the Tanakh acknowledged the preservation and authority of the scriptures left behind by the previous prophets.

Getting rid of the previous scriptures is like cutting off the branch you're sitting on.

Visualization of the cross references from the different books in the Tanakh and New Testament to each other

@JakeBrancatella Proves The "Islamic Dilemma" is Wrong by Assuming the Quran is True.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Vz17Ud5dKg

This has also been done with the Quran + biblical references. The difference is very noticeable

Islam wants to prove the prophethood of Muhammad by pointing to prophecies in the Torah and the injeel.

But there are no prophecies about Muhammad in the Tanakh or the New Testament.

To cover this up, Islam now wants to claim we can not trust the previous scriptures.

Islam not only breaks the way scripture was treating previous scripture but also wants the acknowledgment it can not get from them.

Islam literally cuts itself off from the foundation it needs.

But, as weird as it may seem, Islam also discredits the Qur'an by claiming wholesale corruption of the previous scriptures. The Qur'an and the Sunnah don't have any hint of such corruption of the text.
The Qur'an points to misinterpretation and not following the commandments in the previous scriptures. But corruption of the text isn't found anywhere.

Current day Islam says, "Don't trust what the Qur'an says, but listen to what we, the scholars of Islam, say."

What is Monarchical Trinitarianism? [Trinity]

Monarchical Trinitarianism, also referred to as the “Monarchy of the Father,” is a theological perspective that asserts the Father as the sole source (or monarch) within the Trinity. This view maintains a clear distinction of roles among the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit while upholding their unity in essence. It is essential to distinguish this from Monarchianism, a heretical belief condemned in the 4th century, which posited that God is a single person rather than three distinct persons.

Is Jesus denying His divinity when He called the Father greater than Him?
