About this ebook

The aim of this book is not to criticize our Christian brothers, invalidate the Gospel or do away with Christianity. The Koran was sent to confirm the Torah and the Gospel, not to do away with them. In this book, the misconceptions in Christianity are described in the light of passages from the Gospel and the Koran, and a call is made for an alliance with Christians. It must not be forgotten that in the Koran, Christians and Jews enjoy a special status as the "People of the Book," and they are Muslims' allies against irreligion. In this time when the coming of Jesus (pbuh) is foretold, an alliance between the three Abrahamic faiths is necessary and essential. With a union of believers, God will fill the world with peace and security and make the earth a place of justice and happiness.

Now writing under the pen-name of HARUN YAHYA, Adnan Oktar was born in Ankara in 1956. Having completed his primary and secondary education in Ankara, he studied arts at Istanbul's Mimar Sinan University and philosophy at Istanbul University. Since the 1980s, he has published many books on political, scientific, and faith-related issues. Harun Yahya is well-known as the author of important works disclosing the imposture of evolutionists, their invalid claims, and the dark liaisons between Darwinism and such bloody ideologies as fascism and communism.Harun Yahya's works, translated into 60 different languages, constitute a collection for a total of more than 45,000 pages with 30,000 illustrations.His pen-name is a composite of the names Harun (Aaron) and Yahya (John), in memory of the two esteemed Prophets who fought against their peoples' lack of faith. The Prophet's seal on his books' covers is symbolic and is linked to their contents. It represents the Qur'an (the Final Scripture) and Prophet Muhammad (may Allah bless him and grant him peace), last of the prophets. Under the guidance of the Qur'an and the Sunnah (teachings of the Prophet [may Allah bless him and grant him peace]), the author makes it his purpose to disprove each fundamental tenet of irreligious ideologies and to have the "last word," so as to completely silence the objections raised against religion. He uses the seal of the final Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace), who attained ultimate wisdom and moral perfection, as a sign of his intention to offer the last word.All of Harun Yahya's works share one single goal: to convey the Qur'an's message, encourage readers to consider basic faith-related issues such as Allah's existence and unity and the Hereafter; and to expose irreligious systems' feeble foundations and perverted ideologies.Harun Yahya enjoys a wide readership in many countries, from India to America, England to Indonesia, Poland to Bosnia, Spain to Brazil, Malaysia to Italy, France to Bulgaria and Russia. Some of his books are available in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Urdu, Arabic, Albanian, Chinese, Swahili, Hausa, Dhivehi (spoken in Mauritius), Russian, Serbo-Croat (Bosnian), Polish, Malay, Uygur Turkish, Indonesian, Bengali, Danish and Swedish.Greatly appreciated all around the world, these works have been instrumental in many people recovering faith in Allah and gaining deeper insights into their faith. His books' wisdom and sincerity, together with a distinct style that's easy to understand, directly affect anyone who reads them. Those who seriously consider these books, can no longer advocate atheism or any other perverted ideology or materialistic philosophy, since these books are characterized by rapid effectiveness, definite results, and irrefutability. Even if they continue to do so, it will be only a sentimental insistence, since these books refute such ideologies from their very foundations. All contemporary movements of denial are now ideologically defeated, thanks to the books written by Harun Yahya.This is no doubt a result of the Qur'an's wisdom and lucidity. The author modestly intends to serve as a means in humanity's search for Allah's right path. No material gain is sought in the publication of these works.Those who encourage others to read these books, to open their minds and hearts and guide them to become more devoted servants of Allah, render an invaluable service.Meanwhile, it would only be a waste of time and energy to propagate other books that create confusion in people's minds, lead them into ideological confusion, and that clearly have no strong and precise effects in removing the doubts in people's hearts, as also verified from previous experience. It is impossible for books devised to emphasize the author's literary power rather than the noble goal of saving people from loss of faith, to have such a great effect. Those who doubt this can readily see that the sole aim of Harun Yahya's books is to overcome disbelief and to disseminate the Qur'an's moral values. The success and impact of this service are manifested in the readers' conviction.One point should be kept in mind: The main reason for the continuing cruelty, conflict, and other ordeals endured by the vast majority of people is the ideological prevalence of disbelief. This can be ended only with the ideological defeat of disbelief and by conveying the wonders of creation and Qur'anic morality so that people can live by it. Considering the state of the world today, leading into a downward spiral of violence, corruption and conflict, clearly this service must be provided speedily and effectively, or it may be too late.In this effort, the books of Harun Yahya assume a leading role. By the will of Allah, these books will be a means through which people in the twenty-first century will attain the peace, justice, and happiness promised in the Qur'an.The works of the author include

    Harun Yahya (Adnan Oktar)

    Harun Yahya and His Works

    Now writing under the pen-name of HARUN YAHYA, Adnan Oktar was born in Ankara in 1956. Having completed his primary and secondary education in Ankara, he studied fine arts at Istanbul's Mimar Sinan University and philosophy at Istanbul University. Since the 1980s, he has published many books on political, scientific, and faith-related issues. Harun Yahya is well-known as the author of important works disclosing the imposture of evolutionists, their invalid claims, and the dark liaisons between Darwinism and such bloody ideologies as fascism and communism.

    Harun Yahya's works, translated into 73 different languages, constitute a collection for a total of more than 55,000 pages with 40,000 illustrations.

    His pen-name is a composite of the names Harun (Aaron) and Yahya (John), in memory of the two esteemed Prophets who fought against their peoples' lack of faith. The Prophet's seal on his books' covers is symbolic and is linked to their contents. It represents the Qur'an (the Final Scripture) and Prophet Muhammad (saas), last of the prophets.

He uses the seal of the final Prophet (saas), who attained ultimate wisdom and moral perfection, as a sign of his intention to offer the last word.

    All of Harun Yahya's works share one single goal: to convey the Qur'an's message, encourage readers to consider basic faith-related issues such as God's existence and unity and the Hereafter; and to expose irreligious systems' feeble foundations and perverted ideologies.

    Harun Yahya enjoys a wide readership in many countries, from India to America, England to Indonesia, Poland to Bosnia, Spain to Brazil, Malaysia to Italy, France to Bulgaria and Russia. Some of his books are available in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Urdu, Arabic, Albanian, Chinese, Swahili, Hausa, Dhivehi (spoken in Maldives), Russian, Serbo-Croat (Bosnian), Polish, Malay, Uygur Turkish, Indonesian, Bengali, Danish and Swedish.

    Greatly appreciated all around the world, these works have been instrumental in many people recovering faith in God and gaining deeper insights into their faith. His books' wisdom and sincerity, together with a distinct style that's easy to understand, directly affect anyone who reads them. Those who seriously consider these books, can no longer advocate atheism or any other perverted ideology or materialistic philosophy, since these books are characterized by rapid effectiveness, definite results, and irrefutability. Even if they continue to do so, it will be only a sentimental insistence, since these books refute such ideologies from their very foundations. All contemporary movements of denial are now ideologically defeated, thanks to the books written by Harun Yahya.

    This is no doubt a result of the Qur'an's wisdom and lucidity. The author modestly intends to serve as a means in humanity's search for God's right path. No material gain is sought in the publication of these works.

    Those who encourage others to read these books, to open their minds and hearts and guide them to become more devoted servants of God, render an invaluable service.

    Meanwhile, it would only be a waste of time and energy to propagate other books that create confusion in people's minds, lead them into ideological confusion, and that clearly have no strong and precise effects in removing the doubts in people's hearts, as also verified from previous experience.

    To The Reader

     a special chapter is assigned to the collapse of the theory of evolution because this theory constitutes the basis of all anti-spiritual philosophies. Since Darwinism rejects the fact of creation—and therefore, God's existence—over the last 150 years it has caused many people to abandon their faith or fall into doubt. It is therefore an imperative service, a very important duty to show everyone that this theory is a deception. Since some readers may find the opportunity to read only one of our books, we think it appropriate to devote a chapter to summarize this subject.

     All the author's books explain faith-related issues in light of Qur'anic verses, and invite readers to learn God's words and to live by them. All the subjects concerning God's verses are explained so as to leave no doubt or room for questions in the reader's mind. The books' sincere, plain, and fluent style ensures that everyone of every age and from every social group can easily understand them. Thanks to their effective, lucid narrative, they can be read at one sitting. Even those who rigorously reject spirituality are influenced by the facts these books document and cannot refute the truthfulness of their contents.

     This and all the other books by the author can be read individually, or discussed in a group. Readers eager to profit from the books will find discussion very useful, letting them relate their reflections and experiences to one another.

     In addition, it will be a great service to Islam to contribute to the publication and reading of these books, written solely for the pleasure of God. The author's books are all extremely convincing. For this reason, to communicate true religion to others, one of the most effective methods is encouraging them to read these books.

     We hope the reader will look through the reviews of his other books at the back of this book. His rich source material on faith-related issues is very useful, and a pleasure to read.

     In these books, unlike some other books, you will not find the author's personal views, explanations based on dubious sources, styles that are unobservant of the respect and reverence due to sacred subjects, nor hopeless, pessimistic arguments that create doubts in the mind and deviations in the heart.

    Why Is It Essential to Properly Grasp the Purpose of This Book?

    There is a very important fact that we want our Christian brothers who read this book to understand: this book was not written in order to criticize our Christian brothers, to disparage them, to completely invalidate the Gospel or to do away with Christianity.

    As revealed in verse 136 of 2nd Chapter of the Koran, Muslims say, We have faith in God and what has been sent down to us and what was sent down to Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob and the Tribes, and what Moses and Jesus were given, and what all the Prophets were given by their Lord. We do not differentiate between any of them. Therefore, in the same way as Christians, Muslims also have an obligation to abide by the true commands in the Gospel and to praise its wise words.

    In the same way that he is a Muslim, a Muslim is also a true follower of Abraham, of Noah, of Moses and of Jesus. He recognizes, loves and praises all the prophets. Muslims and Christians are together awaiting the coming of Jesus (pbuh) in the End Times, in which we are now living. At the same time, as required by Islam, a religion of peace and love, true Muslims have a duty to love and watch over and protect Christians and Jews, described as the People of the Book in the Koran.

    There are many verses in the Koran in which Jesus (pbuh), Hazrat Mary, Christians and the Jews are praised. Although a number of false beliefs that were added onto Christianity only subsequently are corrected in the Koran, the Koran confirms that the true Gospel is a Divine text revealed by God. Christians and Jews enjoy a special status as the People of the Book in the Koran and are Muslims’ allies against irreligion.

    Muslims therefore have a duty to call on the People of the Book to adhere to the true, uncorrupted Torah and Gospel, to show them the way, to ensure they become more devout and sincere and to call on them to believe in God, the One and Only. This is exceedingly important in terms of establishing brotherhood, union and unity among those who believe in God.

    The purpose of the information in this book addressed to our Christian brothers is to act as an invitation to sincerity and the truth, in other words, the Koran. It is also to free Christians from false practices and superstitious additions to their faith that appear nowhere in the Gospel revealed to Jesus and to make them true Christians who abide by the commandments of the true Gospel.

    As Muslims, it is also our desire for we also want Christians to become true believers. Our duty, as revealed by God in the Koran is to enjoin the right and forbid the wrong (Koran, 3:104) and to call on the People of the Book to believe in the Oneness of God (Koran, 3:64). These require that we lead them away from errors that some of our Christian brothers have unknowingly fallen into and show them the truth. It is therefore a matter of the greatest importance for Christians to be warned against these dangers, like all other believers, and to be invited to adhere to the true commands revealed by God and to abide by logic and reason.

    This book deals with beliefs that entered Christianity, a true faith, over the course of the years and which the Koran warns against. As the verses telling of these errors are set out, evidence will be produced from the Gospel, Christians’ own holy book, to do away with these. As with all beliefs, there may be Christians who look at matters from a radical perspective, who insist on these false beliefs we have mentioned and who harbor a prejudiced view of the Koran. Our advice to our Christian brothers in question is to read what is presented in this book in an objective manner and to evaluate what they read rationally and from an entirely new perspective. This will not lead them astray from what is commanded in the Gospel. On the contrary – by God’s leave – it will be instrumental in their approaching the Gospel more honestly and obeying it in a more perfect manner.

    Surely God is beyond all those expressions in this book that are in any way disrespectful of Him.

    In the name of God, All-Merciful, Most Merciful

    Say: 'He is God, Absolute Oneness, God, the Everlasting Sustainer of all. He has not given birth and was not born. And no one is comparable to Him.’ (Koran, 112:1-4)

    Introduction: Christianity Is Actually a Monotheistic Faith

    The Christian religion that was born among Jews living in the Holy Land was the result of sincere Jews living by the law of the Prophet Moses (pbuh) choosing to follow Jesus. The distinguishing feature of the Jews who followed Jesus is that they believed in God as the one and only god.

    However, this monotheistic belief changed after the ascension of Jesus and the spread of Christianity into pagan lands. Jesus began being regarded as divine due to the belief in the Trinity that was subsequently made part of Christianity (surely God is beyond that). Christians espousing that superstitious belief claimed that Almighty God took human form and incarnated himself in Jesus, and disseminated that belief.

    Belief in the Trinity – surely God is beyond that – is used in the sense of a belief in a tripartite God – Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Led and supported by the Roman Emperor Constantine of the time, various people who wished to modify Christian belief pointed to the references to the son of God that appear in the Torah and the Gospel as evidence. They claimed that Jesus was quite literally the son of God and ascribed divine status to him. However, the references to the son of God in the Torah and the Gospel are a metaphorical expression of the fact that all sincere believers are God’s beloved servants. This is made clear in The Gospel According to Matthew - Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. (Matthew, 5:9). The reference to Jesus means the same thing. The term son in the Gospel means that he is a beloved servant of God and not that he is the actual son of God (surely God is beyond that).

    This false and quite dangerous belief that was added onto Christianity at a later date and intended to destroy monotheistic belief gradually became the main precondition and article of faith in Christianity. Indeed, people who rejected the dogma were even regarded as having abandoned the Church. Under the leadership of certain priests advocating the Trinity, attempts were made to impose the dogma on Christianity through force and compulsion. Anyone rejecting belief in the Trinity was severely punished, exiled from their homelands or even killed. [For more detail on the subject see Jesus (pbuh) Is Not the Son of God, But His Prophet, Adnan Oktar, www.bookglobal.com]

    It needs to be emphasized that the belief in the Trinity, or the three in one as some Christians put it, that was later added onto Christianity appears neither in the Torah nor the Gospel. The word Trinity does not appear in the Gospel, even though it is still regarded as an article of faith. However, this belief imposed as dogma and that seeks to portray Jesus as the son of God is a major error and danger. The majority of our Christian brothers are unaware of the scale of this danger, which God describes as follows in the Koran:

    They say, The All-Merciful has a son. They have devised a monstrous thing. The heavens are all but rent apart and the Earth split open and the mountains brought crashing down, at their ascription of a son to the All-Merciful! It is not fitting for the All-Merciful to have a son. There is no one in the heavens and Earth who will not come to the All-Merciful as a servant. (Koran, 19:88-93)

    God describes this effrontery as something that will cause the Earth to split open and the mountains to come crashing down. Sincere Christians must be aware of this great danger that so angers God. They need to see that belief in the Trinity, which was added onto the Gospel centuries later and was imposed despite all the objections in a climate of great strife, is completely incompatible with the true Gospel. They need to free themselves from their dogmas and look at matters rationally.

    Of course, saying see the danger may not be enough for some Christians who have been taught solely the idea of the Trinity throughout their lives. That is why the idea of the Trinity and other subjects that entered Christianity only later need to be clarified in the light of the words of the Gospel and all the evidence. This evidence is set out in the pages that follow. The statements that follow concerning the Trinity are examined in three separate sections.

    The first section consists of historical information proving that the idea of the Trinity was included in the Gospel and Christianity at a later date. This section will also discuss how the concept of the Trinity has no basis in the Torah.

    The second section is intended to encourage sincere Christians to reflect and see certain truths in the light of passages from the Gospel and verses from the Koran. When our Christian brothers read these words they will see why a true believer must not believe in the Trinity and that this can have no place in the law of God.

    The third section discusses a truth that will change the lives of all rational people of good conscience. That is the true nature of matter. The concept of representation will be fully understood in the light of the information provided about the true nature of matter and the ideological basis on which the Trinity rests will be completely demolished.

    The Koran Confirms All the Earlier Books. The People of the Book Also Are Responsible toward the Koran

    Before moving on to discuss this, one very important point needs to be emphasized. In addition to the Gospel, evidence is also provided from the Koran in order that various matters be properly understood. The reason for this is that the Koran is the book of Christians and Jews, as well as of Muslims.

    The Koran is the last holy scripture. It has been protected, and there are therefore no discrepancies or inconsistencies in it. As God reveals to our Prophet (pbuh): We will cause you to recite so that you do not forget – (Koran, 87:6). God also reveals in verses that He protects the Koran - it truly is a Noble Koran in a well-protected Book. (Koran, 56:77-78)

    The Koran is pure revelation. It bestows peace and light, in the same way as the uncorrupted parts of the Torah and the Gospel. Anyone looking through the eyes of reason and conscience will immediately see this. They will see this as soon as they read the Koran. There is no need for any other evidence. No conscience can withstand the beauty and truth of the Koran. Anyone who reads the Koran and sees its extraordinary language, its superb clarity, the way it so perfectly addresses the conscience and the soul, the honesty of its statements, its warmth, its perfect evidence and the absence of any discrepancies will immediately form a firm opinion regarding it. It is totally obviously a Divine text. Almighty God has also confirmed this with numerous amazing miracles unique to the Koran. (For more detail see The Miracles of the Koran 1-2, Adnan Oktar, www.bookglobal.net)

    There is an important fact that Christians need to know about the Koran: The Koran was not sent down to invalidate the scriptures before it. On the contrary, the Koran was sent down in order to corroborate the true passages in the Torah and the Gospel and to show people the truth. It is therefore unlawful for a Muslim to deny the existence of true books before the Koran. (Some Muslims may claim the opposite, but these are people with a radical mindset, lacking in knowledge about the Koran and therefore about the essence of Islam. The explanations given here are based on verses of the Koran, not on the supposed logic of the radicals in question.) The revelation in the Koran requires that Muslims recognize and genuinely love all the prophets. In the same way that the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is our prophet, so are the Prophets Moses (pbuh) and Jesus (pbuh). As commanded in the Koran, it is impossible to discriminate between them:

    Say, We have faith in God and what has been sent down to us and what was sent down to Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob and the Tribes, and what Moses and Jesus were given, and what all the prophets were given by their Lord. We do not differentiate between any of them. We are Muslims submitted to Him. (Koran, 2:136)

    Therefore, a Muslim is at the same time also a true follower of Moses and a true follower of Jesus. Again according to the Koran, a Muslim must obey those parts of the Torah and the Gospel that are compatible with the Koran.

    Since the Koran confirms all previous scriptures and prophets, true Judaism and true Christianity are existing in the Koran. True Judaism and true Christianity are therefore only possible by recognizing the Koran and becoming a follower of the Prophet Muhammad. For that reason, not only Muslims but also all Jews and all Christians have a responsibility toward the Koran.

    God states in one verse how He has sent the Koran as light and a clear sign for the People of the Book, that is Christians and Jews:

    People of the Book! Our Messenger has come to you, making clear to you much of the Book that you have kept concealed, and passing over a lot. a Light has come to you from God and a Clear Book. (Koran, 5:15)

    The fact that the Koran was sent to confirm the Torah and the Gospel is expressed as follows:

    Say, Anyone who is the enemy of Gabriel should know that it was he who brought it down upon your heart, by God’s authority, confirming what came before, and as guidance and good news for the believers. (Koran, 2:97)

    He has sent down the Book to you with truth, confirming what was there before it. and He sent down the Torah and the Gospel. (Koran, 3:3)

    These verses make it clear that the Koran was sent down to confirm Jews’ and Christians’ own books and to show them what is right and wrong, a book in which they can find the most perfect clarification of everything. Another verse of the Koran reveals how Jews and Christians must also obey the Koran:

God’s command is always carried out. (Koran, 4:47)

    Another verse is addressed to the People of Book who insist on adhering to their own books despite being invited to obey the Koran, and they are reminded that the Koran was sent down to confirm their own scriptures:

    When they are told, Have faith in what God has sent down, they say, Our faith is in what was sent down to us, and they reject anything beyond that, even though it [the Koran] is the truth, confirming what they have... (Koran, 2:91)

    Almighty God also reveals in verses that the Torah and the Gospel used to be a source of wisdom, but that the true source of wisdom is now the Koran, which confirms the true passages in all other scriptures:

    He has sent down the Book to you with truth, confirming what was there before it. and He sent down the Torah and the Gospel, previously, as guidance for mankind, and He has sent down the Furqan [the Koran, the One that discriminates between what is right and wrong]. Those who reject God’s
