Unique Islam

The Hindu people claim Hinduism as "Sanatan Dharma" which means a faith and way of life which is everlasting. From our Islamic point of view, we consider it as a way of misguidance and to guide the people from misguidance to the right way, Allah the Almighty has sent different messengers from the beginning of the Creation. For this reason, Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) is not the founder of any new religion like "Muhammedanism", but he is the last messenger of the same faith which is "submission of our will to the One True Creator" and in Arabic it can be translated as "Islam". So, if Hinduism or Sanatan Dharma is the oldest faith, then from our point of view, Islam is the correction of such corrupted way of life. For this reason, there are many points can be analysed to show Islam clearly before the Hindu people. But for the easy understanding of truth, we are only trying to say about a few points below. => Who is the Ultimate Creator in Hindu...

You can r ead the Part 1 here: http://uniqueislamblog.blogspot.com/2017/06/why-islam-prohibits-worship-by-forms.html?m=1 =>Different way of gradual development:- a) Fixed on truth: In Hinduism, one can adopt a form to fix concentration. But in islam it is forbidden to use any imaginary form because it is considered as falsehood and an insult to Almighty God as the creation is not the portion or manifestation of Almighty Allah. "Say, ‘Will you worship beside Allah that which has no power to do you harm or good?’ And it is Allah Who is All-Hearing, All-Knowing." (Al-Quran, 05:77) b) Way of concentration and self-development: In islam 'Worship' does not mean only prayer, but it means to 'obey all the commandments of Almighty God'. If anyone prays, he is worshipping; if anyone does not kill innocent human being, he is worshipping; if anyone loves his parents, he is worshipping. In short, if anyone does his works according to the commandments of Allah a...

Concept of form-worship in Hinduism: According to Hinduism, worship by forms like idol worship is neither prohibited nor inspired. It is wishable. "Whoever resorts to Me in any manner(form or formless worship), in the same manner do I favour them; men experience Me alone in different ways..." ( Bhagabat Gita , 4:11) "Even those who are devoted to other divinities(god or goddess) with faith in their heart, worship Me alone...." ( Bhagabat Gita , 9:23) ** But it is considered a lower type of worship. ** "Controlled by their inherent nature and deprived of knowledge by various desires, worldly-minded men resort to other gods, observing various disciplines" ( Bhagabat Gita , 7:20) "Deep into shade of blinding gloom fall ' Asambhuti's worshippers' (those who worship natural elements). They sink to darkness deeper yet who on Sambhuti (human made things for worship like idols, symbols etc) are intent" (White Yajurveda , 40:9...

In the Rebuttal of Part 1 , we have tried to show that Hindu Ascetic Ramakrishna's theory *Yata Mat Tata Path*(As many faiths, so many paths) does not say about the Ultimate One True Creator and so the ultimate goal -  "realization of Brahman" - is contradicted to Islamic theology. Here in this part, we are trying to show the other points below. ii. From where Ramakrishna knew about Islam? : In the Gospel of Ramakrishna, it is stated, "Toward the end of 1866 he began to practise the disciplines of Islam. **Under the direction of his Mussalman guru he abandoned himself to his new sadhana.** **He dressed as a Mussalman and repeated the name of Allah. His prayers took the form of the Islamic devotions. He forgot the Hindu gods and goddesses — even Kali — and gave up visiting the temples.** He took up his residence outside the temple precincts. After three days he saw the vision of a radiant figure, perhaps Mohammed. This figure gently approached him and finally...

Introduction: Hindus have often tried to pose the charming theory of their mystic personality "Ramakrishna Paramahamsa" which is *Yata Mat Tata Path* . It is a Bengali term **যত মত তত পথ** which means "As many faiths, so many paths" . => What does the theory say: The theory says that if you take any path like Hinduism, Islam, Christianity and so on, you will at the end reach to the same goal. The theory invented by Ramakrishna was later preached by his most famous disciple Swami Vivekananda. In the website of " Ramakrishna Math and Ramakrishna Mission" , it is stated like this way, "....Sri Ramakrishna recognized the differences among religions but showed that, **in spite of these differences, they lead to the same Ultimate Goal** . This is the meaning of his famous maxim, Yato mat, tato path, “As many faiths, so many paths”. Apart from this, Swami Vivekananda also held that the religions of the world are expression...
