WHAT IS HIS NAME?
At the end of my public talk on the subject - "MUHUMMED(p.b.u.h.) the
Natural Successor to CHRIST(p.b.u.h.)"

at question time, a Christian
Missionary posed the question: "What is His Name?"Meaning thereby as t
the name of God. I stood up to
nswer. But before I opened my mouth, he spoke intothe mike, provided for
uestioning, that he would answer his own question.I said, "You posed the
uestion so the obligation is on me to reply to your question". He said, "Yes,
ut I will answer the question." (Laughter in the audience). He was actually
egging for an opportunity to be heard. Where else on earth would he get
uch a large audience, and that at the Muslim's expense, to preach. I said,
Carry on!" (Give him enough rope to hang himself).After some rambling, he
oncluded that the name of God was "JESUS CHRIST!"
was not the time, at that meeting; nor is it expedient here to discuss the
ubject fully - "IS JESUS GOD?"

It is enough, for the moment, to say that
the language of Moses, Jesus and Muhummed (Peacebe upon them all)
elief in God is ingrained in the nature of man. Aslong as man existed on
arth, the knowledge of God Almighty also co-existed. As Professor Max
uller in his Hibbert Lecturessaid:
his is truly a very charitable attitude; truly Islamic. Alláh subhá nahu wa
a-aalá(God Almighty) tells us in the Holy Qur'an:
"RELIGION IS NOT A NEW INVENTION. IT IS, IF NOT AS OLD AS
THE WORLD, AT LEAST AS OLD AS THE WORLD WE KNOW. THERE
NEVER WAS A FALSE GOD NOR WAS THERE EVER A FALSE
RELIGION, UNLESS YOU CALL A CHILD A FALSE MAN. ALL
RELIGION, SO FAR AS I KNOW THEM, HAD THE SAME PURPOSE.
ALL WERE LINKS IN A CHAIN WHICH CONNECTS HEAVEN AND
EARTH, AND WHICH HELD, AND ALWAYS WAS HELD, BY ONE AND
THE SAME HAND."
