(١٢٨)IS ALLAH (S.W) ONE OR THREE?From Argon’s prayers to Kr<strong>is</strong>hna, “you are the everlasting, the great,whom we must know, who controls the beings; you are the god whoex<strong>is</strong>ted bef<strong>or</strong>e gods”.The book “F<strong>is</strong>hno B<strong>or</strong>ani” describes him: “he has no start, nomiddle, and no end”.Menti<strong>one</strong>d in the Indian scriptures about Buddha: “he <strong>is</strong> Alpha andOmega, there <strong>is</strong> no start <strong>or</strong> end to h<strong>is</strong> ex<strong>is</strong>tence, and he <strong>is</strong> the god,the owner, the powerful and the everlasting”. The same was saidabout Lawken, Lawtz, Armizd, Zios, and many others, who werecalled the “Alpha and Omega”. 1Fifth: The Dates of Gods’ Birth, W<strong>or</strong>ship, and TraditionsNot only do Chr<strong>is</strong>tian beliefs c<strong>or</strong>respond with other religions on some<strong>is</strong>sues, but also on w<strong>or</strong>shipping and dates as well. The idolatrousbelieve, in spite of the differences of their gods, that their incarnatedgods were b<strong>or</strong>n on 25 th of December, such as the god Mithra andothers.That <strong>is</strong> what the Orthodox Chr<strong>is</strong>tians say of their dates. It was fixedin 530 C.E. by the priest Deunesus. He wanted to draw Chr<strong>is</strong>tiansaway from the idolatrous celebrations, and occupy them withChr<strong>is</strong>tian celebration. The same happened in many other idolatrouscelebrations, so the Chr<strong>is</strong>tians took the dates and the traditions fromthem.In h<strong>is</strong> book, “The H<strong>is</strong>t<strong>or</strong>y of the Anglican Church”, Priest Beid quotedPope Greg<strong>or</strong>y’s first speech, (601C.E), in which he quoted PopeMellitus’s advice, which f<strong>or</strong>bade the destruction of the idolatroustemples. In addition, he believed in turning them away fromw<strong>or</strong>shipping the devil to w<strong>or</strong>ship the true God, to clean the people’shearts of sins, and make it easier f<strong>or</strong> them to v<strong>is</strong>it the temples, whichthey used to v<strong>is</strong>it. 1Thus, the new Chr<strong>is</strong>tian will not find any difference, in the place <strong>or</strong>the content, between Chr<strong>is</strong>tianity and what he/she believes, whichwill make it easier to spread Chr<strong>is</strong>tianity.1 - Pagan<strong>is</strong>m in Chr<strong>is</strong>tianity, Mohammad Taher Attenneer, pp 120-1211 - Frank D<strong>is</strong>cussion Between the Servant of Allah and the Servant of Chr<strong>is</strong>t, AbdulWadoud Shalaby, pp 67-72, Chr<strong>is</strong>tianity, Ahmad Shalaby, pp 83, The True Chr<strong>is</strong>tianityThat Chr<strong>is</strong>t Taught, Alaa Abu Bakr, pp 191-192
