  • Question
    How can I make sure that this will not affect our relationship?
    Community Answer
    Tell the person to be calm. Mostly when a person tries to convince another to enter a religion, there is more tension around, so this may be quite difficult. If the person you are talking about has more faith in their religion they might take it as a joke. So this very difficult. Give them time to think, don't force them, show them that you care. Show them that you really care for them and show the parts of Islam - about the day of judgement, about the prophet Muhammad (saw). Show the most convincing teachings of Islam that would grow their faith in Islam and that which would convince them to enter Islam. Tell them that the Qur'an speaks more about Jesus .

    Both are Abrahamic religions and Islam is a successor of Christianity. It confirms the existence of Biblical Prophets, figures, and events yet corrects the textual corruption of the Bible. To become a Muslim you need to believe that Jesus and Moses were Prophets. You need to believe in the once-pure existence of the Torah, Gospel (not GospelS), Psalms, and other the other previous specified scriptures.
