The Lie of Mohammed's Ressurection

Post by ...In Heaven... »

The muslims claim that Mohammed ascended into heaven upon a white horse, if I recall correctly (a rip-off of Jesus). However, it is a known historical fact that his body was and still is buried beneath Medina. And if his bones are there, then how could they say he was risen?

Hello ...In Heaven...


You ask a great question in terms of how Muslims can claim Mohammad ascended into heaven since Mohammad's bones are still buried.

However, ascension is different from resurrection. Resurrections are always bodily events. However, ascensions are not necessarily always deemed to be physical. Many ascension accounts in the ancient world were viewed as being spiritual.

Kindest regards,
