God said:
"to be a Messenger to the Children of Israel, (saying): "I have come to you with a sign from your Lord. From clay, I will create for you the likeness of a bird. I shall breathe into it and by the permission of Allah, it shall be a bird. I shall heal the blind, and the leper, and raise the dead to life by the permission of God. I shall tell you what you ate and what you store in your houses. Surely, that will be a sign for you, if you are believers."

"To Moses We gave the Book and after him We sent other Messengers. We gave (Prophet) Jesus, the son of Mary, veritable signs, and supported him with the Spirit of Purity (Gabriel). Will you then become proud whenever any Messenger comes to you with that which does not suit your fancies, and you belied some (Prophet Jesus) and killed others! "

Does the Quran ever mention Jesus by his name? It amazes me that the Bible calls him by the Roman version of his name - effectively naming him according to his cultural enemies. It seems a huge insult.

In the Quran, Jesus' name is Issa‎, son of Maryam – Mary – and he is called by other attributes, such as: “worshiper of God,” which is an attribute that characterizes God’s prophets and messengers. Jesus said about himself, “I am the worshiper of God” when he uttered a child. God said: "He (Jesus) was only a worshiper whom We favored and We made him an example to the Children of Israel."
The Quran, called Jesus the Messiah, God's Word and His spirit.
God said: "Indeed, the Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, is only a Messenger (and Prophet) of God, and His Word (Be) which He gave to Mary, and a (created) spirit by Him."

God said;
"How many generations have We destroyed since Noah! Your Lord suffices as One who is Aware of and sees the sins of His worshipers.
For whosoever desires this fleeting life We hasten for him whatever We will and to whom We want. Then, We have prepared Hell for him where he will be roasted, condemned and rejected.
Whosoever, being a believer, desires the Everlasting Life and strives for it as he should those their striving will be thanked. (19)
We help these and those, a gift from your Lord; and your Lord's gift is not restricted."

God said:
"Truly, the likeness of (Prophet) Jesus with God, is as the likeness of Adam, He created him from dust then He said to him "Be" and he was."

"The Messiah, the son of Mary, was not except a Messenger, other Messengers had gone before him. His mother was in the state of sincerity, they both ate food. See how We make plain to them Our signs. Then, see how perverted they are."

"And We sent, following in their footsteps (Prophet) Jesus, the son of Mary, confirming that which was before him in the Torah, and gave him the Gospel, in which there is guidance and light, confirming that which was before him in the Torah, a guide and an admonition to the cautious."

God said: "And mention in the Book, Mary, how she withdrew from her people to an eastern place and she took a veil apart from them. We sent to her Our Spirit (Gabriel) in the resemblance of a perfect human. (And when she saw him) she said: 'I take refuge in the Merciful from you! If you are fearful. '
'I am the Messenger of your Lord, ' he replied, 'and have come to give you a pure boy. '
'How shall I bear a son, ' she answered, 'when I am not touched by a human and not unchaste? '
"Even so" he replied, "as such your Lord has said: 'Easy it is for Me. And We shall make him a sign to mankind and a mercy from Us. It is a matter decreed.
She came to her nation, carrying him; and they said: 'O Mary, you have committed a monstrous thing. O sister of Aaron, your father was never an evil man, nor was your mother unchaste. '
So she pointed to him (Jesus). But they replied: 'How can we speak with a baby in the cradle? '
He (the baby) said: 'I am the worshiper of God. God has given me the Book and made me a Prophet.

May be you means these verses;
2 Timothy 3:16-17
All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
In Matthew 28:16-20, Jesus conveys the great commission to his disciples. He says that they have been given authority to disciple others in the name of Christ, and that he expects them to go out and do so. In fact, he even tells them where they should do so.
In Islam: The disciples said to Jesus: “Oh, Spirit of God, who are we sitting with then?” He said: “Whom his vision reminds you in God, his logic increase your knowledge and his deed make you wish for the hereafter?”
The prophets and messengers forbade sitting with the rich man who were overshadowed by the wealthy.
Religious texts emphasized to believers the importance of sitting with scholars because they increase a person’s knowledge, improve his manners, and purify him. And the encouragement to sit with the wise, because sitting with them completes the mind.
In the Quran it is forbidden to sit with the people of falsehood of every kind when they engage in their falsehood.
The Prophet Muhammad also recommended sitting with wise and righteous man; because sitting with them is life for minds, enlightenment for hearts, and healing for souls. Also sitting with the poor; in order for a person to feel the value of what God has blessed him with, and to be more thankful to Him.

The story of the Prophet Muhammad
The Arabs worshiped idols and were governed by ancient tribal customs and traditions. God sent the Prophet Muhammad, who is known to them as the Truthful and Trustworthy. Nevertheless, few of them believed and most of them did not, and among them was Abu Lahab, the uncle of the Prophet.
The tribes of Quraish used various means to prevent the Messenger’s call from spreading in the Arabian Peninsula. They used to say about the Prophet that he was a madman, a magician, a priest, a poet. They said that Quran was the legends of the ancients, a lie that was fabricated by him, and those who helped him.
They harmed the Prophet, and tortured those entering Islam. Just as the Jews were the enemies of the Prophet.
God said: "As for the believers who do good works and believe in what is sent down to Muhammad which is the truth from their Lord He will acquit them of their sins and repair their condition. This is because the unbelievers follow falsehood while the believers follow the truth from their Lord. As such God sets forth for people their examples. Muhammad is not except a Messenger; Messengers have passed away before him. If he dies or is killed, will you turn about on your heels? And he who turns on his heels will not harm God a thing. God will recompense the thankful."

After the death of the Prophet Muhammad on 632 AD, Abu Bakr was sworn in as the caliph. The movement of apostasy from Islam occurred because the old tribal customs remained rooted in the hearts of the tribes residing on the outskirts of the peninsula, and they were stronger than the bond of religion. Therefore, they rejected Islam as a political system, and satisfied with prayer. These tribes considered zakat – it is a religious duty (tax) for all Muslims who meet the necessary criteria of wealth to help the needy – a tribute to be abolished. But they did not return to paganism. Wars took place against the separatist tribes, so most of their leaders returned to the Islamic State, some of them were killed in the battle. With the end of the wars, the entire Arabian Peninsula was unified.
God said: " Say: 'We believe in God and in what is sent down to us and in that which was sent down to Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob and the tribes, and in that which was given to (Prophets) Moses and Jesus, and the Prophets from their Lord. We do not differentiate between any of them. To Him we are submitters."
"There have been examples before you. Journey in the land and see what the fate of the liars was.

Prophet Jesus son of Mary
Jesus in the Koran named Issa. His name was mentioned 25 times, while Mohammed's name 4 times.
God honored Mary among all women of the world.
Gabriel told Mary she would give birth to Jesus, and that he would be a prophet. He told her that Jesus will speak as a child in the cradle.
After forty days, she carried her son Jesus and Mary returned to the people.
His birth was miracle, for Mary was virgin without the interference of man, and got pregnant by order of God.
To support his mission, God gave him the ability to do many miracles like reviving the dead.
According to the Koran, Jesus was not crucified, but a man in the same shape of Jesus who was crucified in his place.
God raised Jesus to heaven.
Koran mentions that Jesus did not claim to be the Son of God. Jesus, like all the prophets and apostles he was chosen to spread the message of God. God revealed to Jesus a holy book, the Bible.

Muslims believe that Jesus will return to Earth when approaching the Day of Resurrection to achieve justice and defeat the Antichrist.

Satan appears in the Bible, was discussed by the rabbis of the Talmud and is explored in detail in Jewish mysticism, or Kabbalah. In Hebrew, the term Satan is usually translated as “opponent” or “adversary,” and he is often understood to represent the sinful impulse (in Hebrew, yetzer hara) or, more generally, the forces that prevents human beings from submitting to divine will. He is also sometimes regarded as a heavenly prosecutor or accuser, a view given expression in the Book of Job, where Satan encourages God to test his servant.
Kabbalistic sources expand the view of Satan considerably, offering a rich and detailed portrayal of the demonic realm and the forces of evil in the world, which are to be warded off in some cases with various forms of magic, from amulets to exorcisms.

How Many Countries Has the Us Invaded 2022
While the Russian invasion of Ukraine dominated headlines in early 2022 and the countries Germany invaded were a vital part of World War II, the United States has itself been an aggressor on many occasions. Instances of the United States invading non-U.S. territory range throughout the country's history, from the 1805 Battle of Derna in what is now Libya to the 2001-2021 takeover and occupation of Afghanistan.

The story of the Prophet Ibrahim or Abraham
Jews and Christians believe that Abraham is the father of the children of Israel from his son Isaac, who Ibrahim presented to God as a sacrifice. Muslims believe his son Ismail was the sacrifice, and they believe that the Messenger Muhammad is one of his descendants.
Ibrahim was born between 2324-1850 BC in Ur, near Babylon, during the time of Nimrod the king of Babylon.
Ibrahim had married three women Sarah, Hajar and Qatara.
Ibrahim and the idols of his people
God has been granted to Abraham that his senses gave him from his young, and when he grew up, he denied his people to worship idols that do not harm or benefit them, so he began to invite them to God, and to reject idols, with the good word. When Abraham saw their arrogance, he had broken all idols except the large one.
When the people came and saw their idols broken, they trembled and asked who did this, someone said to them: I heard Ibrahim remind them. They asked Abraham who did that? He said: “He is the chief idol and here is the ax hanging in his neck. They make big fire and throw Abraham in it. Gabriel called on an order of his Lord that, O fire, be a cold and peace on Abraham.
Abraham's migration
Abraham's migration from Iraq started when God saved him from Nimrod and went to the Levant and then to Egypt. Sarah was very beautiful, so the king of Egypt wanted to marry her, Sarah then prayed and called her Lord to keep the king away from her; So the Lord answered her, and the king was subjected to severe pains, that forced him to say: Return her to Abraham, and gave her Hajar as a maid. Hajar then married Abraham, and she gave birth to Ismail. But then she was very jealous, from Sarah, and she asked Ibrahim to keep them away from her. Abraham responded to her, and God revealed to him, so he walked with his wife Hajar and son, to a place in Mecca in the desert. Abraham left Hajar, and Ismail in that place. God created stem water – Zamzam – so some people gathered, and Abraham started visiting Ismail. God commanded him to build a house with the help of his son, Ismail. When Abraham, and Ishmael, raised the foundations of the House (they were praying): "Our Lord! Accept (this service) from us. Surely You are the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing.

Satan in the Bible: 14 Sobering Facts about the Devil

He’s the universe’s public enemy number one, the chief opponent of God and his people, and the leader of uncounted demonic forces. Jesus says he’s been a murderer from the beginning, and he’s engaged in an all-out war against the forces of good in the universe.
The Bible calls him the devil, Satan, the evil one.

Story of Prophet Joseph or Youssef
Youssef son of Yaqoub – Jacob – son of Ishaq, the eleventh son of the Prophet Yaqub. He is a holy religious figure in the religions of Judaism, Christianity and Islam.
Joseph's brothers believed that their father loved Joseph more than them. Their jealousy pushed them to get rid of Joseph, so they asked their father to allow them to go out to the wilderness with Joseph to spend some time playing.
Jacob agreed to leave Joseph with his brothers after they pledged to protect him well. But they decided to get rid of him and throw him in a well, then took his shirt putting blood of a bird on it. They came back to their father, crying saying the wolf ate Joseph when we were playing, and this is his shirt.
By chance, travelers found Joseph in the well took him and sold him as a servant.
After that, Qutefir, Qutifar, or Potiphar son of Ruhaib, the prime minister of Egypt, bought him. The Minister desired to take care of Yusuf as his son because of his intelligence and recommended his wife Zulekha to be kind to him.
Joseph grew up in the court of the Minister for eleven years, and became a young man with a nice face, sweet speech, brave, strong, and endowed with knowledge.
Zuleikha loved him until she seduced him closed the doors saying: 'Come!. However, Joseph ran towards the door to get out, but they found Potiphar at the door. When Potiphar saw that Joseph's shirt had been pulled from his back, he was convinced that his wife was the traitor. The wife said that he tried to assault her.
Then it seemed good to them, even after they had seen the signs, that they should imprison him for some time, so Yusuf was imprisoned.
In prison, Joseph became famous for his ability to interpret dreams.
One day, the Egyptian king had a strange dream that no one could interpret, and he knew that Joseph was in prison, was the one who knew the interpretation.
The king said: 'Bring Joseph before me. Youssef came out of prison.
The king asked him: "I saw in a vision seven fatted cows being devoured by seven lean ones; and seven green ears of corn and seven others withered. Tell me the meaning of my vision."
He replied: 'You shall sow for seven years as is your way. Leave in the ear (of corn) you reap, except a little which you eat. Thereafter, seven hard years will come upon you, which will consume all but little of that which you have stored. Then, there will come a year in which people are helped, in which the people will press. '
The king of Egypt was impressed by the interpretation of Joseph and ordered him to hand him a major position in the management of Egypt's stores and food affairs.
One day, Joseph's brothers came to Egypt to take food aid from the state coffers. They did not recognize Joseph, but he knew them.
Joseph refused to give them aid before they brought their younger brother. Jacob agreed with difficulty to send his son with his brothers, then Joseph kept his younger brother with him in Egypt.
Jacob's eyes had gone from crying over Joseph, he came to Egypt to bring back his son, and when Jacob heard Joseph's voice, he recognized him, and his eyes cured.

The grave of the Prophet Joseph
After the death of the Prophet Joseph, the people of Egypt differed in the place of his burial, and it is said that the people had agreed to put him in a box of alabaster and buried it in the Nile River so that the water passes on it and its blessing arrives for all the cities and villages of Egypt. The grave remained in its place for years until God revealed to his Prophet Moses to transfer the grave to the Holy House, so Moses extracted the body from the Nile and buried it next to his father Yaqoub and his grandfather Ishaq and Ibrahim in the city of Nablus in Palestine.

God said: "set your face towards the religion, being of pure faith, and do not be among the idolaters. Do not pray to, other than God, to anything that can neither help nor harm you, for if you do, you will become a harm doer."
"If God touches you an affliction none can remove it except He; and if He wills any good for you, none can repel His Bounty. He causes it to fall upon whosoever of His worshippers that He will. He is the Forgiving, the Most Merciful."

Thank you Joy
Each of the soul and body needs to secure happiness from complete food. As we care about eating food, we have to take care of spiritual food.
The prophets have expressed spiritual teachings with (food) and they consider learning the food of the soul. Just as beneficial food is sufficient for the safety of the body, as well as the useful science is valid for the development of the soul to rise to the peace of perfection and proximity to God.
Therefore, man must take his knowledge from the surroundings of revelation, who are the prophets and messengers, and move away from the destructive ideas that call the mind and lead its owner to deviation.
We must take care of the food for the soul in order for the soul to do its duty in worshiping and obeying God. As for what happened, we rose to the body so that the soul does not have an effect.
I ask God to help us to reform ourselves to live happy

The story of the Prophet Yunus
Yunus, Jonah or Jonas is a prophet among Jews, Christians and Muslims.
On the Tigris River the Assyrians lived. Nineveh was the capital of the country where Yunus was born and lived, until, when he realized, he saw his people worshiping idols. God sent Yunus to the people of Nineveh calling them to worship God and to shun idols. Yunus advised them and said: Worship God alone and do not associate anyone with Him.
But the people of Nineveh rejected his call and stood in his way.
The Prophet warned them that God would punish them if they persisted in their stubbornness and idolatry.
Yunus left Nineveh towards the Sea waiting for the punishment of the people of Nineveh.
After several days, the people of Nineveh saw frightening signs, the sky was filled with black clouds. Some righteous people saw these signs and realized that divine punishment was about to descend and destroy the city of Nineveh. Therefore, he warned the people of against the descent of torment. He said: Have mercy on yourselves! Have mercy on your children. Why are you stubborn? Yunus never lies and torment will befall you.
The good man said to them: Declare your faith, O people of Nineveh. And he said: God is merciful to the servants, so show remorse, and take the infants from their mothers until the weeping abounds, and keep the animals away from the pastures until they are hungry and their voices become louder.
This is what the people of Nineveh did, and the children cried, the mothers cried, the animals were raging with hunger, and life was disrupted in the city of Nineveh. Everyone was crying, everyone believed in the One God who is capable of everything.
Gradually the black clouds were moving away. The sun rose again, and the people rejoiced at the vast mercy of God and the grace of faith.
Yunus was standing in the harbor waiting for a ship to sail to an island. A ship with passengers came. It stopped at the port and Yunus boarded. When it was in the midst of the sea, the storms blew, and the waves rose. A whale appeared and rushed toward the ship, and the ship shook violently!
The ship's sailors realized that the whale wanted to sink the ship. The captain decided to sacrifice one of the passengers of the ship to be food for the whale. That is why they drew the lottery, and the lottery went to the Prophet Yunus. Yunus knew that what happened was by God's will, so he and the whale disappeared, and the ship escaped danger. The whale swallowed Yunus in his big dark stomach!
At that moment, Yunus realized that he should have returned to Nineveh, and not traveled to the island, angry at the people of his city. In the depths of the whale Yunus exclaimed: No god but You Glory I oppressors. Yunus praised God.
God wills that the whale head to the shores of island and slander Yunus, who is extremely weak, unable to move, and needs a break in the shade, so God planted a pumpkin tree on him. He shaded himself with pumpkin leaves, and slowly ate its fruits.
Yunus regained his health and returned to his city of Nineveh and saw the people receiving him and rejoiced in God's mercy.

Story of Moses and Pharaoh
God said:
Then We sent after them – prophets – Moses with Our signs to Pharaoh and his establishment, but they were unjust toward them. So see how the end of the corrupters was.
And Moses said, "O Pharaoh, I am a messenger from the Lord of the worlds
[Who is] obligated not to say about God except the truth. I have come to you with clear evidence from your Lord, so send with me the Children of Israel."
[Pharaoh] said, "If you have come with a sign, then bring it forth, if you should be of the truthful."
So he [Moses] threw his staff, and suddenly it was a serpent, manifest. And he drew out his hand; thereupon it was white [with radiance] for the observers.
Said the eminent among the people of Pharaoh, "Indeed, this is a learned magician, wants to expel you from your land [through magic], so what do you instruct?"
They said, "Postpone [the matter of] him and his brother and send among the cities gatherers who will bring you every learned magician."
And the magicians came to Pharaoh. They said, "Indeed for us is a reward if we are the predominant?"
He said, "Yes, and, [moreover], you will be among those made near [to me]."
They said, "O Moses, either you throw [your staff], or we will be the ones to throw [first]."
He said, "Throw," and when they threw, they bewitched the eyes of the people and struck terror into them, and they presented a great [feat of] magic.
And We inspired to Moses, "Throw your staff," and at once it devoured what they were falsifying.
So the truth was established, and abolished was what they were doing. And they [Pharaoh and his people] were overcome right there and became debased.
And the magicians fell down in prostration [to God]. They said, "We have believed in the Lord of the worlds, The Lord of Moses and Aaron."
Said Pharaoh, "You believed in him before I gave you permission? Indeed, this is a conspiracy which you conspired in the city to expel there from its people. But you are going to know. I will surely cut off your hands and your feet on opposite sides; then I will surely crucify you all."
They said, "Indeed, to our Lord we will return. And you do not resent us except because we believed in the signs of our Lord when they came to us. Our Lord, pour upon us patience and let us die in submission to You."
And the eminent among the people of Pharaoh said, "Will you leave Moses and his people to cause corruption in the land and abandon you and your gods?" [Pharaoh] said, "We will kill their sons and keep their women alive; and indeed, we are subjugators over them."
Said Moses to his people, "Seek help through God and be patient. Indeed, the earth belongs to God. He causes to inherit it that He wills of His servants. And the [best] outcome is for the righteous."
They said, "We have been harmed before you came to us and after you have come to us." He said, "Perhaps your Lord will destroy your enemy and grant you succession in the land and see how you will do."
And We certainly seized the people of Pharaoh with years of famine and a deficiency in fruits that perhaps they would be reminded.
But when good [i.e., provision] came to them, they said, "This is ours [by right]." And if a bad [condition] struck them, they saw an evil omen in Moses and those with him. Unquestionably, their fortune is with God, but most of them do not know.
And they said, "No matter what sign you bring us with which to bewitch us, we will not be believers in you."
So We sent upon them the flood and locusts and lice and frogs and blood as distinct signs, but they were arrogant and were a criminal people.
And when the punishment descended upon them, they said, "O Moses, invoke for us your Lord by what He has promised you. If you [can] remove the punishment from us, we will surely believe you, and we will send with you the Children of Israel."
But when We removed the punishment from them until a term which they were to reach, then at once they broke their word.
So We took retribution from them, and We drowned them in the sea because they denied Our signs and were heedless of them.
And We caused the people who had been oppressed to inherit the eastern regions of the land and the western ones, which We had blessed. And the good word [i.e., decree] of your Lord was fulfilled for the Children of Israel because of what they had patiently endured. And We destroyed [all] that Pharaoh and his people were producing and what they had been building.

Story of Prophet Shuaib
God said:
"And to [the people of] Madyan [We sent] their brother Shuaib. He said, "O my people, worship God; you have no deity other than Him. There has come to you clear evidence from your Lord. So fulfill the measure and weight and do not deprive people of their due and cause not corruption upon the earth after its reformation. That is better for you, if you should be believers."
"And do not sit on every path, threatening and averting from the way of God those who believe in Him, seeking to make it [seem] deviant. And remember when you were few and He increased you. And see how the end of the corrupters was."
"And if there should be a group among you who has believed in that with which I have been sent and a group that has not believed, then be patient until God judges between us. And He is the best of judges."
"Said the eminent ones who were arrogant among his people, "We will surely evict you, O Shuaib, and those who have believed with you from our city or you must return to our religion." He said, "Even if we were unwilling?"
"We would have invented against God a lie if we returned to your religion after God had saved us from it. And it is not for us to return to it except that God, our Lord, should will. Our Lord has encompassed all things in knowledge. Upon God we have relied. Our Lord, decide between us and our people in truth, and You are the best of those who give decision."
Said the eminent ones who disbelieved among his people, "If you should follow Shuaib, indeed, you would then be losers."
"Those who denied Shuaib – it was as though they had never resided there. Those who denied Shuaib – it was they who were the losers."

Story of Prophet Lot
Lot – Lut – is one of the characters of the Bible in Judaism and Christianity and a prophet mentioned in the Quran. It is believed that he lived 175 years. He believed in Abraham, and when Abraham migrated from Iraq to Palestine, Lot was with him. In Palestine, God sent Lot as a prophet to the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to remind its people to worship God and to forbid them to do evil. It is said that Lot's life was between 1861-1686 BC.
God said:
"And [We had sent] Lot when he said to his people, "Do you commit such immorality as no one has preceded you with from among the worlds [i.e., peoples]?
Indeed, you approach men with desire, instead of women. Rather, you are a transgressing people.
But the answer of his people was only that they said, "Evict them from your city! Indeed, they are men who keep themselves pure."
So We saved him and his family, except for his wife; she was of those who remained [with the evildoers].
And We rained upon them a rain [of stones]. Then see how the end of the criminals was. "

According to Christian tradition, a cave, situated close to the Dead Sea is where the Prophet Lut [Lot] sought refuge in after the destruction of Sodom.

To be safe from Satan
God said;
"And if a prompting from Satan should cause you hurt (as you carry out your mission or during worship or in your everyday life), seek refuge in God. He is All- Hearing, All-Knowing.
When those who are God wary are touched by a visitation of Satan, they remember [God] and, behold, they perceive.
And their (Satan’s) brothers plunge them further into Hell. They never give-up (on that)".
