Alhamdulillah, thank you for sharing history from 1954 - 1988 Islamic history in Atlantic City NJ ... very interesting and the first time I ever heard any of this ... pieces in the jigsaw puzzle slowly coming together ... :)
... someone needs to be honest in our "sick" and "sad" world ... (besides me ... as painful as that has been these past 5+ decades...) ... I lovingly tell you as an elder, white woman, that I am the elephant in your "black" & "male" room ... :)
Muhammad was uncertain of his own salvation: Say: "I am no bringer of new-fangled doctrine among the messengers, NOR DO I KNOW WHAT WILL BE DONE WITH ME OR WITH YOU. I follow but that which is revealed to me by inspiration; I am but a Warner open and clear." S. 46:9 Narrated 'Um al-'Ala: An Ansari woman who gave the pledge of allegiance to the Prophet that the Ansar drew lots concerning the dwelling of the Emigrants. 'Uthman bin Maz'un was decided to dwell with them (i.e. Um al-'Ala's family), 'Uthman fell ill and I nursed him till he died, and we covered him with his clothes. Then the Prophet came to us and I (addressing the dead body) said, "O Abu As-Sa'ib, may Allah's Mercy be on you! I bear witness that Allah has honored you." On that the Prophet said, "How do you know that Allah has honored him?" I replied, "I do not know. May my father and my mother be sacrificed for you, O Allah's Apostle! But who else is worthy of it (if not 'Uthman)?" He said, "As to him, by Allah, death has overtaken him, and I hope the best for him. By Allah, though I am the Apostle of Allah, yet I do not know what Allah will do to me," By Allah, I will never assert the piety of anyone after him. That made me sad, and when I slept I saw in a dream a flowing stream for 'Uthman bin Maz'un. I went to Allah's Apostle and told him of it. He remarked, "That symbolizes his (good) deeds." (Sahih al-Bukhari, Volume 5, Book 58, Number 266: Contrast this with the assurance that the Lord Jesus gives to his true followers: "I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand." John 10:28-29 "Jesus said to her, ‘I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?’ ‘Yes, Lord,’ she told him, ‘I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world.’" John 11:25-27 "Jesus did many other miraculous signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not recorded in this book. But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name." John 20:30-31
@@anisafrombreuklen406 These are not my views, they are teachings from the Hadiths and other islamic sources. And as of right now im studying Islam due to the fact that there are many muslims where i live, in which -by Gods grace- i wish to share with them the true Gospel. Thank you for asking sister, grace and peace!
The sister asked a good question which you sidelined. I'm glad you're here, maybe you'll learn something. It's happened before, it'll happen again. God is generous, may He give hidayah to you and your family. Ameen
