JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY Man made Labels
Judaism, Christianity and Islam are sister religions. All these three religions go back to Hazrat Ibrahim (A.S). Judaism, Christianity and Islam are the teachings of Moses (A.S), Jesus Christ (Peace Be Upon Him) and Mohammad (Peace Be Upon Him). There is no such thing JUDAISM or CHRISTIANITY, actually these are labels. Judaism means religion followed by the people of Juda, actually Hazrat Moosa (Moses) A.S. Christianity is the religion followed by the people of Hazrat Eesa (Jesus Christ PBUH). And there is no such thing like Judaism and no such thing like Christianity. In the Christian bible to which they call Holy Book, in that book there is no word in whole encyclopedia of 73 books of Roman Catholic and 66 books of Protestants. The word Judaism is not there, its non existent and the word Christianity is also non existent. And when you will ask a Jew that excuse me sir! Is this word in your Toraah, he will tell you NO, is it in your other holy books, he will say NO, then where did he get it?

Like if someone asks from Muslims that where did you get word Islam from? He will say, it’s in the Quran (Chapter 3, Verse 19) and Hadith (teachings of Prophet Mohammad PBUH). Islam is the name of the Deen (way of life), which Muslims follow. Jews say that their Deen is Judaism, is it in your most authoritative books? They will say NO, and they don’t know from where the word JUDAISM from? So the word Judaism is not to be found in any religious scriptures of the Jews. It came from the word JUDA and HUDA from which we get YAHUDA or YAHOODI. Juda was the eldest son of Hazrat Yaqoob (A.S), and when Jews and Israelis conquered Palestine, it was divided among the tribes. There were 12 tribes, 12 sons of Hazrat Yaqoob (A.S). In history they became 12 tribes and Palestine was divided among the tribes, so the people from outside who saw the type of religion they are practicing, they said the religion followed by the children of Juda in Judia (name of the land) is Judaism. So they like the term and accepted it. The word Christianity also is not to be found anywhere in the bible, the first time this word CHRISTIAN was used by the enemies of the Jesus Christ (PBUH), and those enemies said that these are the Christians meaning the worshipers of Christ. But if Hazrat Moses (A.S) was accessible to us, if we get close enough to him and if you could ask him O! Musa
what is your religion? We expecting him to say that

“My religion is a religion of total submission to God’s will”, and one word for that in Arabic language is ISLAM. Judaism is a creation and invention of a man. If Jesus Christ (PBUH) in his second coming, if we could approach him and ask him O! Jesus Christ (PBUH) what is you religion? We are not expected to hear from him CHRISTIANITY, if he says Christianity, we could ask him what you are Sir? Are you Roman Catholic? Or Are you Protestant or are you from any other church? What are you?
It’s Ridiculous! We expect him to say that “my religion is a religion of Total submission to God’s will” and one word for that in the Arabic language is ISLAM. Therefore, Allah says there is only one religion that religion is total submission to Allah’s will, which is ISLAM. Relationship between the teachings of the prophets of these religions, Moses (A.S), Jesus Christ (PBUH) and Mohammad (PBUH), in the fundamentals, there is no difference. The 100% same. You see the first commandment which we say (Awwal Kalima) given by Allah to Moses (A.S) in the Hebrew language, in the language of the Jews is “O! Israel the Lord is ONE”. Some 1300 years after Moses (A.S), Jews go to Jesus Christ (PBUH) and questioned him that O! Jesus (PBUH) what commandment is the first of all?

Meaning what is the Awwal Kalima? And Jesus (PBUH) answered in the Hebrew language “O! Israel, The Lord is ONE”. Moses (A.S) said One and Only, Jesus Christ (PBUH) said One and Only. Some 600 years after Jesus, the Christians came to Mohammad (PBUH), and they had dialogue in the Mosque named Nabvi for three days and three nights. During the discussion the Christian posses question O! Mohammad (PBUH), what is you concept of God? And he replied “Say He is the God One and Only”. So Jesus (PBUH) said ONE AND ONLY, Moses (A.S) said ONE AND ONLY and Mohammad (PBUH) said ONE AND ONLY, so what is the difference? This is the same word meaning the same thing. Arabic and Hebrew are sister languages, like we say “Salam in Arabic” and “Shalom in Hebrew”, or we say Ahad(one and only) in Arabic and Ikhad(one and only) in Hebrew. It’s a same language different dialogue. So the teachings of these three prophets were same, so what is the difference? The difference is Shariah (Laws). And Allah gave laws according to the needs of the times. Islam is the culmination is the highest
point reached in the teachings of the religion on the system given by Allah to the prophet Mohammad (PBUH), and we all have to believe and follow this….
