Maybe you should check out this book, sister, "The First and Final Commandment":If you cant stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen is a well-known maxim. In this case, The First and Final Commandment is the kitchen, and the ovens are burning full blast. Jews and Christians who cant stand the heat of having their religious beliefs confronted may want to pass quickly by this kitchen. However, those willing to pick up the intellectual gauntlet laid down by Dr. Brown are in for a highly entertaining and most thought-provoking read, one that just may have them reconsidering some of their most cherished beliefs. Jerald F. Dirks, M.Div., author of The Cross and The Crescent.Asalamu alaykum,John

"To God belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on the earth. Whether you show what is in your own selves or conceal it, God will call you to account for it. Then He forgives whom He wills and punishes whom He wills, for God is Able to do all things." (Qur'an 2:284).

{Invite (mankind, O Muhammad ) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom (i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur'an) and fair preaching, and argue with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.}
(Holy Quran-16:125)
{And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in His Oneness)," and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: "I am one of the Muslims."} (Holy Quran-41:33)
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "By Allah, if Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of camels." [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim]
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also said, "Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all."
[Muslim, Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, an-Nasaa'ee, at-Tirmidhee, Ibn Maajah]
