Mary, the mother of Jesus, is a significant figure in Islam for several reasons. She is considered one of the four perfected women in Islam along with Khadijah, Fatima, and Asiya. The Quran tells Mary's story, including the annunciation where the angel Gabriel tells her she will give birth to Jesus miraculously without having been touched by a man. Mary is seen as the ideal believer who submitted to God's will without question. She is praised for her chastity and piety, making her an exemplary role model for both women and all Muslims.
Jihad has multiple meanings in Islam including striving to achieve a goal or using one's resources to please God. There are two types of jihad - the greater jihad which is overcoming one's desires and the lesser jihad which is actions taken for God. Jihad aims to purify oneself, attain true humanity, and achieve peace. War in Islam is only permissible for self-defense or when freedom of religion is oppressed. Terrorism and killing innocent people are strictly forbidden in Islam.

A375 Example Taste the taste of the Lord, the taste of the Lord The taste of...franktsao4
It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375
