Dialogue between Muslim and atheist
The word *Islam* means acquiring peace by submitting your will to one God, our Creator.
You can start by asking, *"Do you believe in God?"* If the answer is *"No"* or *"Maybe,"*
- *"If I told you that this building we're in just appeared out of nowhere, with no one to build it, would you believe me?"*
- *"If I said I was walking in the desert one day and threw some dust in the air, and it randomly formed into an iPhone, what would you think of me?"*
- *"If the sun came too close to us, we'd be destroyed by its heat, and if it went too far, we'd freeze. So who placed the sun in just the right spot? It must have been a Creator, right?"*-
Non Muslim: yes that makes sense
In Islam We believe in one God who created all of us "He neither begets nor is born dose that make sense so far ?
Non Muslim: yes it make sense
Muslim: so do you think this mighty God created all humans just to eat and drink or there’s a deeper purpose?
Non Muslim: I think there’s a deeper purpose
Muslim: to know this purpose God sent prophets since the beginning of humanity. Adam, Moses, Abraham, Jesus, and, finally, the last prophet, Muhammad (peace be upon them all). Every nation received a prophet to teach people about God and the purpose of life. Their message was always the same and never changed. And this is to worship only One God These prophets were given miracles to prove that their message was from God. For example, Moses parted the Red Sea, Jesus was born miraculously without a father and healed the blind and raised the dead. However, we don't believe these miracles make them gods, because if that were the case, Adam and Eve would be even more worthy of being considered gods since they were born without a father or mother.
The miracle of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) that is tangible to us is the Quran, our holy book. The Quran is a miracle in multiple ways—scientifically, historically, linguistically, and mathematically. It has been preserved for 1,400 years without change and contains no contradictions or errors. It spoke of the Big Bang theory, the expanding universe, and the stages of embryo development in great detail, long before these were established scientific facts in the last few centuries. Who could have mentioned these things 1,400 years ago?
We also believe that the Gospel and the Torah were once the word of God and His revelation, and they contained the same message as Islam: to worship and submit to the one God and follow His commandments. However, people altered these scriptures by adding and removing things. Today, the Bible may still contain some remnants of God's word, but not entirely, so it can no longer serve as a complete guide. Only the Quran, which God promised to preserve, remains unchanged and reliable as a guide. I can send you a copy of the Quran if you're interested in reading it.
We must submit and worship the one God, our Creator, and believe in all the prophets—Adam, Moses, Jesus, Abraham, and the last prophet, Muhammad (peace be upon them). We also have to
