Sr. Umm Bilqis, you suggested a reading for HIN, he/she suggested a reading for you. That seems perfectly appropriate and should be no reason for attacking language. The first principle of dawah is humility and mercy. actually, the deletion was an editorial one.

I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings that was not the nicest way of explaining my thoughts, and I am glad that mm so fit to delete my message to you. As for the rest we will see on the day of judgment> what the truth of the matter is, and so till then God willing.

I only sent you the link because I thought you might be interested in learning about other faiths (Judaism and Islam are so similar) from an intellectual perspective, as I did about Islam. It *is* possible to explore things intellectually without converting, unless you are afraid your faith is too weak to withstand this exploration. Your call. By the way, I saw the comment you tried to delete where you accused rabbis of "widespread trickery". Our rabbis don't try to "trick" G-d. Really nice. Ok, that’s fine!

We say no submission to humans who have a tendency to change the laws of God and say this is from God.
