It was basically me throwing stuff together lol. I had some taco ground beef leftover from dinner in a pan that I put over a toasted ciabatta roll, some chipotle aioli, pickled red onions, sliced cherry tomatoes, cilantro, some melted mozzarella cheese, and tomato soup to dunk it in

I don’t really have any tbh, it’d better if they converted to Islam but like that’s their own decision and God guides whom He wills

Tbh I’ve really only studied those as beliefs academically, I don’t know much about them as lived in communities. Obv as someone who believes Islam to be true I’d want them to see that as well. I wish them the best as any other person

That’s a pretty interesting question, in a metaphysical physical sense yes with how we transcend this reality to another after death, as well as the example of the mi’raj ascension journey of the prophet peace be upon him. But in the spiritual sense of this life alone you could say there are forms of this in tasawwuf, or sufism as known to the west (the internally focused aspect of Islam) where we as believers through purifying the self attain greater spiritual stations so to speak

As we pray with greater intention, follow in the footsteps of the prophet peace be upon him, be truly good people, tame our egos, sublimate our basal desires to the highest good of God, see truth as it is, & try to submit to God in this life; we arrive toward a state of fan’a as people, or annihilation of the ego. When in such a state, we are opened up to what we truly are & to the divine experience so to speak. It is a spiritual path of purifying one’s self, that accordingly purifies the world

Well if someone is converting to something they’re usually in search of truth and earnest in that. Christianity has many good elements within it that offer spiritual benefit and transformation to people the world over, much like other faiths, but this is more the result of the earnest intentions within the believer and God’s will than the systems themselves imo. Islam is humanity’s true religion, the proper way in which God has set for us to know Him. So to want that for another person would be

Better for them. Many people take up the label of Islam and Muslim, but this is no guarantee of the beliefs internalizing within them, or their intentions toward truth being pure. Indeed many of those who call themselves Muslims may find themselves in hell through their own decisions, while a special Christian pure of heart, although mistaken in their belief, may find themselves in heaven via their good decisions—it is God’s will alone after all. God’s mercy is greater than we know, but God also

Commands us upon what is true, and what is right. Islam makes categorical claims of God’s one-ness (not trinity), of Jesus peace be upon him being a human messenger alone, of the truth in the prophet Mohammed peace be upon him’s final message from God. Islam and Christianity cannot simultaneously be true. So for all those who seek truth, they will find it in Islam best as the last bastion of preserved revelation from the divine. It will lead them to what they seek and more in this life & after
