In the Qur’an Muhammad claims only to be a messenger or warner to the people.
Sura 34:28 "And we have not sent you (O Mohammed) except as a giver of glad tidings and a Warner to all people."
Muhammad never claimed that through following him you would go to heaven, in fact when challenged he had this to say about himself not being saved.
Sura 46:9 Say: "I am not an innovation among the messengers, nor do I know what will be done with me or with you. I follow but that which is revealed to me by inspiration; I am but a Warner open and clear."
Muhammad refused to perform any miracles as he could not!
Sura 29:50 And they say, `Why are not Signs sent down to him from his Lord?' Say, `The Signs are with ALLAH, and I am but a plain warner,'
Muhammad used the Bible to make a point about his teaching, this very claim gives evidence by Muhammad of the truth of the Bible.
Sura 46:10 Say: "See ye? If (this teaching) be from Allah, and ye reject it, and a witness from among the Children of Israel testifies to its similarity (with earlier scripture), and has believed while ye are arrogant, (how unjust ye are!) truly, Allah guides not a people unjust."
In Islam everyone must go to hell first including Muslims the Qur’an declares it!
Sura 19:66-69. Man says: "What! When I am dead, shall I then be raised up alive?"
But does not man call to mind that We created him before out of nothing?
So, by thy Lord, without doubt, We shall gather them together, and (also) the Satans (with them); then shall We bring them forth on their knees round about Hell;
Then shall We certainly drag out from every sect all those who were worst in obstinate rebellion against (Allah) Most Gracious.
Sura 19:71 mentioned not one will pass over it i.e all Muslims must enter hell;
71. Not one of you but will pass over it: this is, with thy Lord, a Decree which must be accomplished.
Muhammad acknowledged in the Qur’an that he is a sinner and asks forgiveness for his sins both past, present and future!
Sura 48:2 That Allah may forgive thee thy faults of the past and those to follow; fulfill His favor to thee; and guide thee on the Straight Way;
Claims of Jesus of Nazareth !
Jesus Claimed himself sinless which is also mentioned in the Qur’an as a holy/pure son.
Sura 19:19 He said: "Nay, I am only a messenger from thy Lord, (to announce) to thee the gift of a holy son.
1 Pet 1:19 But he paid for you with the precious lifeblood of Christ, the sinless, spotless Lamb of God
Jesus claimed he was the only way to go to heaven and the only truth.
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name (other then Jesus Christ) under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Jesus further provided an amazing miracle raising a dead person four days after this person’s death when the dead body would be rotten and full of stench.
John 11:39-44 Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been dead four days.
Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God? Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me. And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me. And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth. And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with grave clothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.
Jesus claimed to resurrect the dead to life even unto eternal life with full authority.
Jesus said unto her (Martha), I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
Jesus claimed he could give eternal life and no one could reverse it or take it away so if you trust in Jesus Christ he will take you to heaven and he is the only one who can do this!
John 10:28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
Jesus claimed to be the very word of God, God in flesh on earth who made the world and the creator of the world.
He claimed to be God on earth (Immanuel) God with us, he died and rose again showing the power he has over death and life.
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God (the two are one in nature).
John 1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us,
Jesus claimed he came on earth to forgive sins once and for all times for those who believed in him and followed him!
John 1:29 next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.
The Qur’an attests to Jesus being word of God, Kalmatullah and the Spirit of God i.e Ruhh Allah Sura 4:171.
Conclusion
So in essence Jesus is the only one who made the claim of divine authorship and forgiveness of your sins to enter heaven whilst Muhammad does not claim to give you eternal life in anyway possible, even your good deeds guarantee nothing, though you maybe sincerely following a religious or non religious system but you can still be sincerely wrong, Jesus said that it is the condition of your heart which allows God to work in your life and to reveal his only truth the only road to everlasting life through Messiah Jesus.
Jer 29:13 You shall seek me, and find me, when you shall search for me with all your heart.
If you pray to the Lord Jesus for forgiveness of your sins then not only are your sins forgiven by the blood he shed on the cross but he will enter your life for a personal relationship.
John 6: 47, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life!
Conclusion
Muhammad offered no way to remove your sins, you eternal state hangs in the balance i.e you do not go to heaven at all as he made no such promises but simply said you might or might not.
Do you want to live your life on a might or might not?
It is Jesus Christ who was the final offering for sin on the cross which atones (covers) or removes our sins so that we can go to heaven without having to pay the penalty of sin which is eternal death i.e no heaven but straight to hell for an eternity.
Eternity is a long time to be wrong and there is no comeback so think carefully and choose what is right.
Please read the prayer below for repentance and forgiveness of your sins and an eternal relationship with the Living Jesus Christ.
Lord Jesus, I need You and am ready to obey you. Thank You for dying on the cross for my sins and shedding your blood to remove my sins. I open the door of my life and receive You as my Saviour and Redeemer.
Lord I have lived a sinful and rebellious life and I repent of all my sins and turn to you to transform my life and give me the peace in my life that only comes through you. Guide my life through the Holy Spirit that my life may be sanctified day by day Thank You for forgiving my sins and giving me eternal life and saving me from Satan’s deception.
