Best Answer

Prophets are people sent by god with the same message or way of life by the prophet or messenger before him but the messengers are the ones sent by god with a new message or way of life. So the similarities is that they are both sent by god.

Answer 1

The similarities are mainly:

  • Both are assigned by same God to call people to worship one and only one God with no partners and no associates and no equivalence
  • Both worked as shepherds
  • Both were opposed by their own people
  • Both are considered among the five greatest prophets. The other three are Noah, Abraham, and Moses (Peace be upon them all)
  • Both have currently the highest number of followers.
  • Both called for good morals and tolerance.

Answer 2

In all honesty, I think the two are a study in opposites, not similarities!

The following points need to be made.

  • An atheist would question whether Jesus (Isa), Mohammed or anyone else was "called by God" to do anything. The similarity here is that both claimed to have a prophetic mission.
  • Jesus never worked as a shepherd. By profession he was a carpenter.
  • In Christianity, there is no concept of the "five greatest prophets" - that is a strictly Islamic point of view. In Christianity Noah is considered a minor prophet (some Christians even deny that he existed), while Mohammed is not considered a prophet at all. A Christian list of the "greatest prophets" would include Moses, Elijah and John the Baptist, and perhaps also Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel and Daniel. Abraham, together with David, is considered a very important figure, but not primarily for prophecy.
Answer 3
  • To my information Jesus worked also as Shepherd. Refer to question below
  • Not all Christians deny that Muhammad is a God prophet. Many Christians believe in prophet Muhammad and believe in the Quran as God holy book but they remain as Christians. Those Christians are even mentioned in Quran and promised be rewarded by God Paradise and forgiveness, Quran says (Meaning English translation):
" ...... you will find the nearest of people in affection to the believers (Muslims) those who say, "We are Christians." That is because among them are priests and monks and because they are not arrogant. And when they hear what has been revealed to the Messenger (Muhammad), you see their eyes overflowing with tears because of what they have recognized of the truth. They say, "Our Lord, we have believed, so register us among the witnesses. And why should we not believe in Allah (God) and what has come to us of the truth? And we aspire that our Lord will admit us [to Paradise] with the righteous people. So Allah (God) rewarded them for what they said with gardens [in Paradise] beneath which rivers flow, wherein they abide eternally. And that is the reward of doers of good." (5: 82-85)

Was there any Prophet of Islam who used to live in Mohenjo Daro or who was famous at that time?

According to Islamic teaching, a prophet of Allah has visited every civilization prior to Mohammed's arrival and attempted to teach submission to Allah. As concerns Mohenjo-Daro specifically, no prophet has ever been named and there is also very limited information concerning the people of Mohenjo-Daro as their writing has still not been deciphered, so there is no possibility of pointing to a historical figure in that city and supposing that that person might be the prophet in question.


What was the controversy of the Muhammad cartoons?

In September 2005 a Danish paper called the Jyllands-Posten ("Jutland Post") did an article on Islam and political correctness. They invited 12 cartoonists to draw a depiction of the Prophet Muhammad. One of the cartoonists evaded the question by drawing a schoolboy called Muhammad. The others depicted the Islamic prophet with varying degrees of offensiveness. Depictions of the prophet are not only forbidden in Sunni Islam (it's considered a form of idolatry), but also considered offensive. In Shi'a Islam they are generally tolerated. However, they too were offended by the content of the cartoons, especially one which depicted Muhammad with a bomb in his turban.


Who first came up with Islam?

There are two concepts for Islam; namelyIslam in its general sense as full submission to God, the Creator; as the one and only God with no partner, no son, no father, no companion, no associate, and no equivalence. In this sense the first who came up with Islam were Adam and Eve.Islam per Quran revelation by God to prophet Muhammad through the angel Gabriel (or Jibril) that started in year 610 AD through 632 AD (year of the prophet Muhammad's death). In this sense, the prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) is the first who came up with Islam
