My Dear Quran Lovers,
 Let us continue to look into the explanation of verses 19 of surah 3 A~li 'Imro~n :
 Two, Three days ago, we discussed about 2 Clergymen of Nazarene who went to Medina and had met the Prophet s.a.w. said that if he s.a.w. could tell them the most greatest Syahadah/ testimony of creed mentioned in the Holy Books, and when Allah taught the Prophet s.a.w. to say, "La~~ Ila~ha Il-Lal-Loh = there is no other God except The God /Allah", and then both of them embraced Islam. In Christian, they do not have this Testimony of Creed but they make a Crucifix sign by touching their forehead then their chest, and both shoulders and say, "Our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father, the son and the Holy ghost". To that, Allah Forbid mankind to say that. In surah 5, Al-Maidah verses No. 75 to 80, among others, (meaning) Disbelievers are those who say, "The God is one of three.". There is but one God. ... The Messiah/Jesus son of Mary a.s. was no more than a Prophet ... His mother was a saintly woman.. They both ate earthly food...". (ii) In Islam, when we are in a diversity or misfortune, especially someone dear passed away, we are told by Allah, in surah 2 Al-Baqoroh verse No. 156 to say, "We belong to Allah/The God, and to Him we will return". But, Christian teaches to say, "Dust to dust, earth to earth".  (iii) Yesterday, we have seen a brief account of verse No. 156 of surah 4 An-Nisaa. Let us have a look about what had happened: " (i) At-Tobaro narrated, from Wahab bin Munabbih said that the Jews went to Prophet Isa/Jesus a.s. who was with his a.s. 17 friends, the Apostles. The Jews surrounded the house then entered into it. And at the same time, Allah/ Yahweh transformed all the faces of the Apostles like that of Jesus. The Jews could not tell who was actually Jesus a.s. because all of them looked alike, like Jesus a.s. the Jews then threatened the Apostles, said, "All of you have used witchcraft. It is better for you to point out who is the real Jesus. If not, we will kill all of you.". Prophet Jesus a.s. said to his a.s. Apostles, "Who is willing to sacrifice himself today to earn the Paradise". One of them stood out said that He was Jesus. The Jews took him and killed him, then crucified him. Thence, the Jews were doubtful about the person they killed and crucified was really Jesus a.s. or someone else who looked like Jesus a.s. The Christians were also in doubt about it. However, Allah had brought him a.s. up into the Heavens. Others said (to be continued).
 Till we meet again in the next session, Insya Allah. See You all Quran Lovers later.
