Based on the sources and our conversation, Islam means "submission" in Arabic. It is a monotheistic faith centered on belief in one God, Allah, and the prophethood of Muhammad. The core concept is Tawhid, the absolute oneness and uniqueness of Allah. Associating any partners with Allah, known as shirk, is considered the gravest sin.Muslims believe Allah's literal words were revealed to Muhammad by the angel Gabriel (Jibril) over 23 years and compiled into the Qur'an, which is considered the final and uncorrupted word of God. Islamic life is guided by the Five Pillars: Shahada (confession of faith), Salah (prayer), Zakat (almsgiving), Sawm (fasting), and Hajj (pilgrimage).Islam views Jesus (Isa) as a respected prophet, but denies His divinity, crucifixion, and resurrection. Human nature is seen as born in a state of fitrah (innate purity), meaning humans are born sinless. Original sin is not a concept, and sin is viewed as human weakness or forgetfulness.Salvation is attained through faith in Allah, adherence to the Five Pillars, and performing good deeds. Deeds are weighed on the Day of Judgment, with Paradise granted based on the outcome. Sharia law, derived from the Qur'an and Hadith, provides a comprehensive guide for all aspects of life.From a Reformed Christian perspective, these views differ significantly, especially regarding the Trinity, the divinity of Christ, original sin, and salvation by grace alone through faith alone rather than through works.Reformed Theologian GPT: https://chat.openai.com/g/g-XXwzX1gnv-reformed-theologianPatreon: patreon.com/edi_reformed
