This is a new methods of missionary
being developed in western world, they want to find the weaknesses of Islam
with the way many Muslims reading scripture, namely the Quran, then applied the
same way to what Muslims in general to Christians. A pastor leading developed
this method because they see the development of Islam in various parts of the
world is due to the enormity of the contents of the womb Al Quran. The pastor
did not want to lose a step, in order to reinstate the glory of the Christian
era, then they use peaceful means are generally also do Muslims to spread
Christianity in the community has a lot of Christians who turn to Islam. Pastor
create a generation of missionaries who understand Islam much more profound
than the Muslims themselves. This mission is carried out in order to attract
public sympathy and get people back interested in Christianity because of its
peaceful nature on Muslims. Can these efforts to fruition?
REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, CLEVELAND -
Pastor
Michael Fitzgerald is a Catholic leader who is quite a place in Christian
Europe and Africa. Fitzgerald decided to become a missionary in Africa when he
was only twelve years old. Eight years later he studied theology and Arabic in
Tunisia. The scientific journey which then makes Fitzgerld become experts
Theology and trusted promote interfaith understanding from a Christian
perspective.
He was seen then as a Roman Catholic
expert lot to teach about Islam. He served as Archbishop of Tunisia, the
Vatican ambassador in Cairo, and the Vatican delegation to the Arab League. In
a way, he took the task of encouraging fellow Christians to learn more about
Islam and the Koran. That said, it does open up horizons for non-Muslims, that
Islam is not associated with violence.
Reported Tribune, Friday (1/5),
after retirement, he actually started to read the Koran teaches courses for a
small group of undergraduate and graduate students at John Carroll University,
a Jesuit institution in Cleveland. In his class, he often highlights the
difference interreligious while encouraging respect for different approaches to
the Christian Muslim. "He even said it was good to be Hafiz," the
Tribune reports Friday (1/5). Even in class, there are some Muslim students
registered in the class.
One of them, Abu-Shaweesh, who wears
a headscarf. He claimed to have a new lesson from the pastor. Abu-Shaweesh
added, he was fascinated by deference shown to Islam by her classmates that her
non-Muslim. Although many Muslims are wary of its mission. But not infrequently
much praised. "The important thing here is knowledge," said Zeki
Saritoprak, director of Islamic studies program at John Carroll University.
"A well-informed Christian, can teach Islam better than a Muslim who lack
information," said Saritoprak.
The Article Review : As people of
Islam, we see how this would be much beneficial for the Muslims side, because
the more effort they want to find a weakness in Islam, they get magnified is
the truth contained in the Koran it will answer all the doubts that exist on
their religion, when they eager to impose Islam by using arguments set forth in
the Koran, justu they are stuck in the fact that Islam is the religion of truth
and in the end they decided to embrace Islam, and this is what is happening in
Europe there. Many of the missionaries who finally reveals himself they
converted to Islam, because when they declare themselves to be knowing a lot
about Islam, inadvertently they also confirmed that the teachings of Islam that
is true, and they also can not deny that they also get peace when studying Islam
and the Koran AL. it is a spontaneous light Hidayah menantul into a person who
uses common sense and a clean heart. But whatever efforts they wanted to weaken
Islam, in any way then it is not justified and we must remain vigilant and
berhati2 with their guile.
