Among the reasons why the Qur’an was sent down, and the teachings
of our beloved Prophet Muhammad s.a.a.w., is “to warn those who
say: "Allah has taken to Himself a son.”
As converts/reverts/Balik-Islam, who I believe to be mostly from the
Catholics-Christian faith, all of you would most likely be confronted
and challenged by your family-and- friends from this previous faith.
Therefore, what I shall present and share with you today, will be the
necessary knowledge, which, guided by Al-Qur’an, this will help to
eradicate whatever false-notion you may still have about your
previous faith, eradicate doubts and replace it with certainty of the
truth of Al-Islam. Also it can assist in preparing ourselves to become
witnesses of Islam and inviting them towards the truth.

Avoiding the Fallacy termed as “circular reasoning”:
Q: How do you know that your doctrine is true?
A: Because it is written in this Book!
Q: What makes you believe that that Book is truly from God?
A: Because I have faith in it!
Q: How do you get that faith?
A: Because I read that (same) Book!
Q: But how do you know that that Book is truly from God!?
A: Because I have faith!
Q: But how do you get that faith?
A: I read the Book!!……?

Any inter-faith discussion has to firstly contend with the issue of
proving, with evidence and reasoning, the basis for acceptance of a
“Book said to be from God”, before assigning it as the authority for
reference regarding doctrines.
To regard that a “Book is from God” requires that we firstly have to
provide certain reasoning or rationale (criteria) as proof for
accepting such a conclusion.
The objective question to consider firstly is, “How can we agree
that a particular book can be relied upon as authoritative?”
“What would you insist that such a Book must have, to convince
you that it is indeed of Divine authorship?”

Therefore, what I shall present and share with you today, will be the necessary knowledge, which, guided by Al-Qur’an, this will help to eradicate whatever false-notion you may still have about your previous faith, eradicate doubts and replace it with certainty of the truth of Al-Islam. Also it can assist in preparing ourselves to become witnesses of Islam and inviting them towards the truth.

Any inter-faith discussion has to firstly contend with the issue of proving, with evidence and reasoning, the basis for acceptance of a “Book said to be from God”, before assigning it as the authority for reference regarding doctrines. To regard that a “Book is from God” requires that we firstly have to provide certain reasoning or rationale (criteria) as proof for accepting such a conclusion. The objective question to consider firstly is, “How can we agree that a particular book can be relied upon as authoritative?” “What would you insist that such a Book must have, to convince you that it is indeed of Divine authorship?” All Rights Reserved© Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail (2015)
