Discovering Islam
Hundreds of
free online videos/ books, Islamic TV Channels, lots of information about Islam, Muslims,
Bible prophecies
about prophet Mohammad, scientific facts in Quran, and
stories of converts/ reverts to Islam.
The purpose of this site - Discovering Islam - is to enlighten the inquiring minds about Islam,
by shedding light on the beliefs and practices of the 1.5 billion Muslims around
the world. Islam is a universal religion and open to
people, from all races, colors, ethnicities, and nationalities. Hundreds of
thousands of people are converting/reverting to Islam each year.
In this site, you will discover and learn about:
1. The principles of Islam: Beliefs & Practices
Explaining the basic principles of Islam. Highly recommended page !
2. The
History of Islam & Prophet Mohammad's Life
including the diverse Islamic
societies, cultures, and civilizations. This section contains several special TV
interviews with leading Western experts on Islam, produced in the U.S. and the
U.K.
3. The Quran We have 8
different English translations of each verse of the Quran.
4. Miracles & the amazing
scientific facts in the Quran: The
Quran is the literal Word of God, authored by
God. It is God's gift to mankind and a miracle in by itself that is
intended to allow people to examine a miracle from God, even hundreds of years
after the time of prophet Mohammad. There are hidden logic structures and codes
embedded in the unique wording of the Quran that help in protecting its integrity. God has promised to
protect the Quran from corruption. One of the easiest ways to prove that validity
and divine origin of the Quran is to compare scientific hints in the Quran
against the scientific knowledge agreed upon by most scientists today. You
will find that whatever was mentioned in the Quran is true. In the Quran, you will find tens of
scientific facts that could not have possibly been known 1400 years. In
contrast, the Bible is full of false scientific facts.
5. Prophecies about Prophet Mohammad in the Bible & other
holy scriptures. In this section, we introduce you to some of the prophecies
about prophet Mohammad (pbuh) in the Bible.
6. What did Jesus
really say & how does Christianity compare to Islam: Islam requires Muslims to recognize Jesus, Moses, Abraham (and the
rest of the biblical prophets) as prophets sent by God. All the prophets were
merely human beings and not divine. Islam rejects the Trinity and Original Sin
doctrines of Christianity. Islam is fully compatible with the true teachings of
prophet Jesus and Muslims believe they are followers of the true teachings of
Jesus, Mohammad and the earlier prophets.
7. Christianity:
Islam's view of Christianity, Similarities & Differences between Islam &
Christianity,
Erroneous & False Christian Doctrines, Contradictions in the Bible.
8. Signs of Last Day &
the Anti-Christ
9. Videos of converts to Islam from all walks of life
and from all over the world: Islam is gaining exceptional popularity in the
West ( the U.S., Canada, Europe, Australia, etc.). You can contact these
converts on www.YouTube.com and learn directly from them why they chose Islam.
10. Islamic
Lectures, Debates & Interviews
(Huge collection of free, video-taped Islamic lectures)
11. Women in Islam
12. The beliefs of
Shia (Shiite)
Muslims vs. the beliefs of Sunni Muslims
We attempt to shed light on the doctrines of Shiism and
how they differ from pure Islam as preached by prophet Mohammad.
13. Frequently Asked Questions & misconceptions about Islam and Muslims.
14. Terror & Evil Forces
( Terrorism, 9/ 11, Zionists, Free Masons, New World Order, Satanic
Cults, etc.)

Disclaimer:
In this section, there is criticism of Christianity
which does not represent the true message of Jesus (peace be upon him) whom we
highly respect as a prophet. We do not harbor any hatred toward Christians.
Our intention is to tell the truth and we apologize for the possibility that the
truth may hurt the feelings of some Christians. We invite
Christians to follow the numerous Bible prophecies (including Jesus') about
the advent of prophet Mohammad and revert (convert)
to God's religion in its purest form, that is Islam.

Miracles, Prophecies & Scientific Facts of Islam Many amazing scientific facts
are mentioned in the Quran that could not possibly have been known at
the time of Prophet Mohammad. Many of these scientific facts have only been
discovered recently by scientists using modern technologies that were not
available 1400 years ago. In comparison, the Bible is full of false scientific
information.
