The History of
Israel &
3 Faiths
www.seedongoodsoil.com
Who ever heard of such a thing?
Who has ever seen such things?
Is a country born in one day?
Is a nation brought forth all at once?
For as soon as Tziyon went into labor,
she brought forth her children.
“Would I let the baby break through
and not be born?” asks Adonai.
“Would I, who cause the birth,
shut the womb?” asks your God.
Isaiah 66:8-9

Syrian rebels fire 18 rockets/mortars
into Lebanon hitting Hezbollah stronghold
Yusuf al-Qaradawi
Sunni Muslim Cleric in Qatar
He denounced Assad's Alawite sect,
an offshoot of Shiite Islam,
as "more infidel than Christians and Jews"
and Shiite Muslim Hezbollah
as "the party of the devil."

Syria
Syrian rebels offer Christian residents four choices:
1) renounce the ‘idolatry’ of Christianity
and convert to Islam
2) pay a heavy tribute (jizya) to the Muslims
for the privilege of keeping their heads
and their Christian faith;
3) be killed;
4) flee for their lives, leaving all their belongings behind.
Saddam Hussein 4/4/03
“Long live Iraq. Long live Palestine"
Hamas Leader Khaled Mash’al 3/06
“The liberation [of Palestine] will come
with the help of Allah, until it is attained
by the last soldier, woman, and child,
despite resistance by Israel and the United States….
Jerusalem will become Arab and Muslim again,
including all the places
holy to Islam and Christianity.”
Iranian President Ahmadinejad
“Wipe Israel off the map.“
"Iran believes that whoever is for humanity should also be for
eradicating the Zionist regime
as symbol of suppression and discrimination,"
Ahmadinejad on Monday said that Iranians and Muslim nations
worldwide should hold Qods rallies
and show their willingness to dispose of this
"infectious tumor and this regime full of rascality."
"Recognizing the Palestinian state is not the last goal.
It is only one step forward towards liberating
the whole of Palestine."
Al Qods Day – 8/11
“This battle is not between
al-Qaeda and the U.S.,
this is a battle of Muslims
against the global Crusaders.”
Osama bin Laden
1993
Letter to the American People
allegedly written
by Osama bin Laden – 12/02
"The creation and continuation of Israel is one of
the greatest crimes, and you [the Americans]
are the leaders of its criminals.There is no need
to explain and prove the degree of American
support for Israel. The creation of Israel is a
crime which must be erased.
Each and every person whose hands have become
polluted in the contribution toward this crime
must pay its price, and pay for it heavily."
Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
With regards to these nine accusations
that you are putting us on trial for; to us,
they are not accusations. To us they are badges of honor,
which we carry with pride.
Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture,
and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause
and to defend Islam and Muslims.
Therefore, killing you and fighting you,
destroying you and terrorizing you,
responding back to your attacks,
are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.
These actions are our offerings to God.
Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
You have violated the law of war by supporting
the Israeli occupation of Arab land in Palestine
and Lebanon, and for displacing
five million Palestinians outside their land.
You have supported the oppressor over the oppressed
and the butcher over the victim.
Answer to 9 accusations by
the US government– 5/09
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, et al
We do not possess your military might, nor your nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, we fight you with the almighty God.
So, if our act of Jihad and our fighting with you
caused fear and terror, then many thanks to God,
because it is him that has thrown fear into your hearts,
which resulted in your infidelity, paganism,
and your statement that God
had a son and your trinity beliefs.
So, our religion is a religion of fear and terror to the enemies of God:
the Jews, Christians, and pagans. With God's willing,
we are terrorists to the bone. So, many thanks to God.
April 2011
Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between
rising expectations and declining opportunities.
This is especially true where the population is young,
idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished;
where entertainment – movies, theater, music –
is policed or absent altogether; and where young men
are set apart from the consoling and socializing
presence of women.
Anger, resentment, and humiliation
spurred young Arabs to search for dramatic remedies

Syrian Schoolbooks – 6/02
Eighth-graders are taught that,
"It is known that the Jews of today do not have
any connection to Palestine…”
Palestinian Schoolbooks – 6/02
The Palestinians, the books claim, have first rights
to the country. The "Arab Canaanites" were here
before the Jews, therefore the Zionistic claim of rights
to the land by virtue of forefathers are a lie.
Zionism is described as a movement of which the
seizing of land is foremost among its tenets.
Knesset Member Ibrahim Abdullah Sarsur,
who heads the southern Islamic Movement
inside Israel, published an official
announcement Sunday according to which
a nation he called the “Arab Jebusites”
founded the city of Jerusalem –
which he referred to using the Arabic name
Al Quds – a long time before the Jews
showed up there.

Land of the Israelites (Koran)
5: 20-21 – Bear in mind the words of Moses to his
people. He said, 'Remember, my people, the favors which
Allah has bestowed upon you. He has raised up Prophets
among you, made you kings, and given you that which
He has given to no other nation.
Enter, my people, the Holy Land which Allah
has assigned for you. Do not turn back, and thus lose all.‘
10: 93 – We settled the Israelites in a secure land and
provided them with good things.
17: 104 - And thereafter We said to the Children of
Israel: 'Dwell in the land. When the promise of the
Everlasting Life comes We shall bring you all together.'
Koran Stories of Abraham (no Abram)
3: 67 – “neither a Jew nor Christian” (first true Muslim)
6: 74-75 – “(And remember) when Abraham said to
his father Azar: 'Will you take idols for gods, surely I
see you and your people are in clear error.'
And so We showed Abraham the kingdom of the
heavens and the earth, so that he might be of those who
are certain.”

The expenses he laid out upon it were vastly large also,
and the riches about it were unspeakable.
A sign of which you have in the great cloisters
that were erected about the temple,
and the citadel which was on its north side. (Josephus)

Muhammad (Mohammed)– prophet (last)
to which the Muslim holy book,
the Koran (Qu’ran) was revealed
(as a ‘final’ revelation) by Allah,
through the angel Gabriel
Muhammad’s Encounter
with the Angel Gabriel
Terror, trembling, unable to rationalize,
possessed with an evil spirit, suicidal
thoughts, vice-like embrace, squeezed out
words, traumatized
“Unable to rationalize the ordeal he had just
experienced, Muhammad concluded that he was
possessed with an evil spirit and was thinking
of committing suicide.”
Islamic Imperialism – A History (Efraim Karsh 2007)

Prophets – Muhammad, last & greatest –
the “seal” of the prophets - others:
Abraham, Isaac, Ishmael, Noah, Moses,
David, Isaiah, John the Baptist, Jesus
Hadith – deeds & sayings of Muhammad
Volume 2, Book 13, Number 21:
Narrated Abu Huraira through different narrators
that the Prophet said, "It is Allah's right on every
Muslim that he should take a bath (at least) once
in seven days.“
Book 41, Number 4828:
Narrated AbuSa'id al-Khudri:
When the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him)
sat, he had his knees drawn up supported by his
hands.
Book 37, Number 4310:
Narrated AbuHurayrah:
The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: There is no
prophet between me and him, that is, Jesus
(peace_be_upon_him). He will descend (to the earth).
When you see him, recognize him: a man of medium
height, reddish hair, wearing two light yellow garments,
looking as if drops were falling down from his head
though it will not be wet. He will fight the people for the
cause of Islam. He will break the cross, kill swine, and
abolish jizyah. Allah will perish all religions except
Islam. He will destroy the Antichrist and will live on the
earth for forty years and then he will die. The Muslims
will pray over him.

1: “Exalted is He who carried His worshiper
[Prophet Muhammad] to travel in the night
from the Sacred Temple to the Furthest
Temple which We have blessed around it so
that We might show him some of Our signs.
He is the Hearer, the Seer.”
Sacred Temple = Mecca
Furthest Temple = ???
Earlier translations = temple
Later translations = mosque, house of worship
620 AD – Midnight Journey

632 AD – Death of Muhammad
Burial in Medina, 2nd holiest site
Beginning of Sunni vs Shiite
690 AD - Dome of the Rock
Al-Aqsa mosque
(Al Haram al Sharif – Noble Sanctuary)
3rd Holiest Site
Inner Face: South Wall - In the name of Allah the Merciful the
Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone; he has no
co-partner. He is the Kingship and His the praise. He giveth life
and He causeth to die, and He hath power over everything.
South-East Wall - Verily Allah and His angels pronounce blessing
upon the Prophet. O ye who have pronounced blessings upon
Him and give Him the salutation of peace. O, People of the Book
(i.e. the Jews and Christians, always referred to as such by the
Muslims -Ed.) do not go beyond the bounds in your religion and
do not say about Allah anything but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus,
son of Mary, is but a messenger of Allah and His word which he
cast upon Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe only in Allah
and of his messenger, but do not say "Three" (Trinity) and it will
be better for you. Allah is only one God. Far be it from His glory
that he should have a son.
North Wall - The Messiah will not deign to be in the service of
Allah nor will the angels who stand in his presence. O Allah; pray
upon Thy messenger "the servant Jesus –
(N-W Wall) - the son of Mary and peace be upon him the day of
his birth, the day of his death and the day of his being raised
alive." That is Jesus, son of Mary - a statement concerning which
YOU are in doubt. It is not for Allah to take for Himself any
offspring, glory be to Him.
West Wall - Allah bears witness that there is no God but Him,
likewise the angels and the people possessed of knowledge
(S-W Wall) - upholding justice. There is no God but He, the
Almighty and All wise. Verily, the religion in Allah's sight is
Islam.
Outer Face - West and North-West Walls - In the name of Allah
the Merciful and Compassionate. There is no God but Allah alone.
Praise be to Allah who hath not taken to himself offspring. To
Him there has never been any person in the sovereignty.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, may God pray upon Him
and accept his intercession.
Praise be God who has not taken unto himself a son and who has
no partner in sovereignty nor has He any protector on account of
weakness.
Expansion under the Prophet Mohammad, 622-632
Expansion during the Patriarchal Caliphate, 632-661
Expansion during the Umayyad Caliphate, 661-750
750 AD – ‘Capital’ of Islam
Baghdad Caliphate (500 Yrs)
868-874 – 12th Imam
(Imam Mahdi) born, hidden (Shiite)
9-10 century – Shiite vs Sunni
Mutazilites vs Asharites
Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will
The Mu‘tazilites, who created the first
fully developed theological school in Islam,
championed the primary role of reason;
reason’s ability to know morality;
the goodness and justice of God
as required by reason;
the unity of God;
and the necessity of man’s free will.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)
Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will
In Ash‘arism…, the primacy of revelation
over reason rises
from the very nature of what is revealed:
God as pure will and power.
The response to this God is submission,
not interrogation.
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)
Asharites vs Mutazilites
Predestination vs free will
Abu Huraira reported Muhammad as saying:
“Verily Allah has fixed
the very portion of adultery
which a man will indulge in
and which he of necessity must commit.”
Good & evil are foreordained
(Insha'Allah – God’s will/God willing)
The Closing of the Muslim Mind (Robert Reilly - 2006)
“Now I know why America is a superpower.
America is great because its people enjoy
freedom of thought. They are the product
of a culture that was born in the Laboratory
under the scientist’s lens,
while we in the Muslim world lag behind
because we have come from
a repressive culture that has no respect
for the mind and refuses to acknowledge
its own failure to come to grips with science.”
A God Who Hates (Wafa Sultan - 2009)
