3. Islam’s Core Framework Islam = Submission (to Allah) Based on two things: Beliefs ( Iman ) & Practices (Pillars) Qur’an + Hadith + Muhammad’s life as model (Surah 33:21)

4. Six Articles of Faith ( Iman ) Belief in Allah (One God) Belief in Angels ( Mala’ika ) Belief in Holy Books (Torah, Zabur , Injil , Qur’an) Belief in Prophets (Adam to Muhammad) Belief in the Day of Judgment ( Qiyamah ) Belief in Divine Destiny ( Qadar )

5. Each Article Detailed with Qur’an Verses Allah – Surah 112:1–4 – “Allah is One, no son.” Angels – Surah 35:1 – Messengers with wings. Books – Surah 2:136 – Torah, Psalms, Gospel, Qur’an. Prophets – Surah 4:163 – Line of prophets ending with Muhammad. Judgment – Surah 99:6–8 – Every deed weighed. Destiny – Surah 54:49 – “We created all things with measure.” (Biblical contrasts on each slide, e.g., John 1:14 on Jesus, not just prophet.

10. Islam’s View of Jesus (Isa) Born of Mary, prophet only (Surah 19:30) Not Son of God (Surah 5:72) Not crucified (Surah 4:157) Will return as Muslim judge (Contrast: John 1:1, John 3:16, Luke 24:6)

11. Sin & Salvation in Islam Sin = breaking Allah’s law Forgiveness = good deeds outweigh bad (Surah 7:8–9) No assurance of salvation Paradise depends on Allah’s mercy (Contrast: Romans 3:23–24, John 5:24)

18. Key Differences Summarized God : Trinity vs strict monotheism Jesus : Divine Savior vs prophet only Salvation : Grace vs works Scripture : Bible inspired vs Qur’an edited

19. Why This Matters for Youth Muslims are in our schools & cities Many are open to conversations about Jesus Sharing truth must be done in love (1 Peter 3:15)

20. Evangelism Question Examples “ In Islam, how do you know your sins are forgiven?” “Do you feel sure about paradise?” “What does the Qur’an say about asking People of the Book?” (Surah 10:94)
