BH, how is your expression of Islam different from the Ismaili expression? Do you feel that
Ismailis are true Muslims?

According to the Quran Jesus was the Messiah to the Jews of his day, preaching to them the way of Allah. According to the Quran on the Day of Judgement he will rebuke those who worshipped him as Lord and God and tell them he never ordered such to be done.ena wrote:I believe most Jews will think God is one. So what did Jesus believe? The Council of Nicea was called by Constantine for political reasons. This was about to be infighting between Arius and others which would destabilize the empire. He attended the council but was not even baptized then. Rome was already showing signs of weakness.B.H. wrote:Allah is the same god as Jehovah, though not trinitarian as the Christians think. He is one.
I don't believe there are infallible imams like the Ismaili sects tend to believe. There is no explicit mention of this in the Quran. Sure, it does mention the need to obey our leaders (how could any society function without obediance to the authorites asking us to do things that do not violate religion) but there is nothing in it that says there will be an infallible leader every generation. I am not going to say they are not Muslims because it is not my place. While I do not agree we have the guidance of infallible imams like the Shia (which Ismailis are a subgroup of) honest ignorance is not something we are going to be punished for on the Day of Judgement. We all live and grow, myself included, and that includes learning more knowledge as time goes by.Ivy wrote:BH, how is your expression of Islam different from the Ismaili expression? Do you feel that
