before the establishment of the state of israel, there were some arabs in the country, under the british mandate. then jewish ppl immigrated to israel in order to establish a "national house" for all the jewish ppl in the world. the british army first supported them, then supported the arabs. in 1948 when Ben Gurion (first israeli prime minister) declared about the establishing, the War of Independence broke out and lots of arabs escaped to neighbour arabic countries. in 1967, there was a war, and on that time, many arabs came back and got autonomy is israel's territory. since then the settled in West Bank (Judea and Samaria), Gaza Strip, and more areas. also there were some arabs the didn't leave the place in 1948, and they are israeli citizens and calles Israeli Arabs.\nthat's how Islam reached Israel.

with the coming of Islam to Egypt in the late 600's AD, most Egyptians soon converted from Christianity to Islam. Some Jews living in Egypt remained Jewish, and some of the Christians remained Christian - these Egyptian Christians are called the Copts, today. But since 700 AD most people in Egypt have followed the Islamic faith.

Jesus became a prophet of God and was sent to confirm the LAW (Torah), but not to preach a new different religion.\n\nBoth Jesus and Mother Mary lived as a Jew, with jewish teachings and confirming the Law sent my Moses.\n\nbecause the religion of Moses, Jesus and Mohammed were the same, neither of them tried to spread a new religion, but to confirm the previous prophets teachings.\n\nEven, Mohammed doesnt call jews or christians as different religion, as it mentions them People of the Book, which means Islam itself is not considered a different religion, but it was to confirm the religion of Jesus and Moses, and spread the One God Almighty's message.\n\nChristianity was surely spread globally, but at the times of Jesus, His disciples also didnt believe on him many times. The followers themselves were thinking Jesus as son of God, which was considered as blasphemy even my Jewish teachings, Jesus replied here himself as Son of Man, and When asked about the Question of Son of God, Jesus replied that "You say the son of God", but they thought Jesus said himself as son of God when he was refering the Son of God was told by the people not him, Thus he was crucified.\n\nLuke; 22\n66  And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people and the chief priests and the scribes came together, and led him into their council, saying,\n\n67  Art thou the Christ? tell us. And he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe:\n\n68  And if I also ask you, ye will not answer me, nor let me go.\n\n69  Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God.\n\n70  Then said they all, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, "Ye say that I am."\n\n71  And they said, What need we any further witness? for we ourselves have heard of his own mouth.\n\n"Ye say that I am." is clearly mentioning that he said himself son of Man, but son of God was said by them, but this was misunderstood not only by christians but also by jews and considering blasphemy, there comes the crucifixion story.\n\nWith these misunderstanding between the followers, how can the religion be preached as a major very soon.

Islam was founded by Nabi Muhammad saw when he received word from Allah in a prophecy. He began life in Mecca where idolatory was a main fact of life but had to flee to Madinah to escape prosecution in what has come to be known as the Hijrah. Islam spread through his family and friends at first but later his companions known as sahabat continued his work by a number of successful conquests which spread Islam to most of the middle east. Islam reached it high point when Muhammad and his army from Madinah conquered Mecca which was later deemed to the the Holy City.

Israel is associated with the earliest stage in the history of humanity by the "Galilee Skull", while recent excavations in Jericho have produced the oldest evidence of organized city life.  \nThe first known inhabitants of Israel in historic times were the Canaanites from whom the land long took its name. By c. 3000-2500 BCE the inhabitants seem to have been largely Semitic speaking; they introduced the use of bronze and developed cities. The Bible mentions seven tribes which dominated the country. The long struggle for its control between the South (Egypt) and the North (Assyria), which - in varying political forms - was to dominate the local scene down to the 19th cent. had already begun at this time. The country was now divided into large numbers of warring city-states ruled over by petty "kings." \n\nIt first enters into Jewish history with the immigration of Abraham whose descendants continued to consider it their home. The Tel El Amarna letters throw much light on conditions in Canaan in the 15th cent. BCE and on the conquests of the Semitic "Habiru," perhaps denoting or comprising incursions by the Israelite tribes. The Israelite tribes gave the country (henceforth "the land of Israel") its unity and historic significance. Except during the brief Crusading interlude (1099-1187), the concept of "Palestine" has in fact existed only in relation to Israelite and Jewish history. The Israelites' invasion was a slow and difficult process: they first established themselves in the plains, and only gradually obtained control of the hill-country; the process was completed with the capture by King David of Jerusalem in c. 1000 BCE. Meanwhile, the disunited and sometimes warring Israelite tribes, ruled over by regional Judges, were the prey of other invaders from the north and east. The most dangerous were the Philistines, sea-invaders from the Aegean, near Greece, who obtained firm control of the Maritime Plain in the 12th cent. BCE and thence pushed inland.  \n\nFor a time, it seemed probable that they would subdue the whole country. But the threat forged union on the Israelite tribes at last, largely through the spiritual dominance of the Prophet Samuel and the military genius of King Saul who established a monarchy embracing the entire country. His work was completed by his son-in-law King David who finally crushed the Philistine menace and extended the boundaries of the state in all directions. The latter's son King Solomon raised the kingdom to a great pitch of magnificence by his maritime enterprises, his lavish court, and his ambitious buildings, including the Temple at Jerusalem to serve as a religious center. The heavy taxation which all this necessitated resulted in widespread discontent, and after King Solomon's death, the northern tribes revolted.  \n\nHenceforth, the Land of Israel was divided for many years into two rival and sometimes warring states -- the smaller kingdom of Judah in the south [from which derives the word "Jew"], and the larger, more luxurious and more powerful kingdom of Israel (or Shamron-Samaria) to the north. The latter, weakened by internal dissensions between rival dynasties and recurrent wars with the kingdom of Syria (Damascus), succumbed in 721 to the Assyrians, its inhabitants being to a great extent deported and replaced by new settlers.  \n\nThe kingdom of Judah, more secluded geographically and more staunch spiritually and politically, for the moment escaped but succumbed in 586 before the Babylonians (Iraq). Jerusalem was now destroyed, large numbers of the inhabitants deported, and the monarchy abolished. An attempt to renew organized political life in subordination to Babylonia under Gedaliah, a member of the old royal house, was ended by his assassination (582 BCE).  \n\nOn the overthrow of the Babylonian Empire, the Persian (Iranian) king Cyrus permitted the children of the exiles, who had continued to cherish

Having read Poki Poki's answer about him "Spreading" Islam, I have to comment on this.  The reason you have to try and spread Islam, is because it is like a disease.  A violent, sick disease, who follows a murderer.  Mohammed was absolutely, categorically, NOTHING to do with the one true, Living God.  He was a fraud, a violent fraud, which is where it all comes from today

When Moses led the Children of Israel out of Egypt to the promised land. They were commanded to kill all the homosexual idol worshiping inhabitants before them.  They were instructed to not show mercy or spare anyone. Or in the latter days they would come back to hurt them.\n\nSo Israel went to Canna did not kill the homosexual worshipers of Baal and as you can see it has turned to their hurt.\n\n\nGo big Re Go

From wikipedia:\n\n"The Al-Aqsa Mosque (Arabic: المسجد الاقصى, Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa (help·info), is part of the complex of religious buildings in Jerusalem known as either the Majed Mount or Al-Haram al-Sharif and the third holy site (the Noble Sanctuary) to Muslims and the Har ha-Bayit (Temple Mount) to Jews. It is located in East Jerusalem, a disputed territory governed as part of Israel but demanded by Palestinians as part of a future State of Palestine. The largest mosque in Jerusalem, it can accommodate about 5,000 people worshipping in and around it. Non-Muslims are forbidden to enter the mosque.\n\nOrigin of name\nThe name "Al-Aqsa Mosque" translates to "the farthest mosque", and is probably derived from the Isra and Mi'raj, a Muslim tradition about a miraculous journey around 621 by Mohammed (c. 570-632). According to a Koranic verse, Mohammed took a journey in a single night on a winged steed Buraq from "a sacred mosque" (probably in Mecca in southern Saudi Arabia) to "the farthest mosque" (al-Masjid al-Aqsa), and from a rock there, Mohammed again mounted the Buraq and briefly ascended to heaven, accompanied by the Archangel Gabriel, and spent some time touring heaven and receiving the Islamic prayers before returning to his home on Earth to communicate them to the faithful. The location of the "farthest mosque" was not explicitly stated, but came to be associated with Jerusalem, though the city is never specifically mentioned in the Koran.\n\nAbout 50 years after Mohammed's death, sometime between 687-691, Caliph Abd al-Malik built a shrine over what was believed to be the sacred rock, and its name, Qubbat As-Sakhrah, means "The Dome of the Rock." Some years after that, in 709-715, Umayyad caliph al-Walid, son of Abd al-Malik, built a new mosque near the Dome, at the location of a previous temporary wooden structure which had been built by Omar (c. 581-644), the Moslem caliph who conquered Jerusalem in 637, five years after Mohammed's death. al-Walid called his new mosque Al Aqsa, "distant place" or "farthest mosque\nConstruction of the Mosque began around 674 about 48 years after the traditional date given for Muhammad 's death. Little remains of the original structure, which, owing to the position of the mosque over Herod’s artificial addition to the Temple Mount, was in constant danger of collapse. In 747 it was badly damaged by earthquake, and then rebuilt on a much larger scale. In 1033, it was destroyed again during the Crusader attacks of Jerusalem, and then converted into a wing of the royal palace of the Crusader Kings.\n\nDamage from earthquakes in 1927 and 1936 necessitated an almost complete rebuilding of the mosque, in the process of which ancient sections of the original mosque were brought to light.\n\nAnalysis of wooden beams and panels removed from the building during renovations in the 1930s shows they are made from Cedar of Lebanon and Cyprus. Radiocarbon dating indicates a large range of ages, some as old as 9th century BC, showing that some of the wood had previously been used in older buildings.\n\nModern significance\nSince part of the mosque's extended surrounding wall is the Western Wall venerated by Jews, this relatively small spot in Jerusalem can become the source of friction. There have been times when Muslims worshipping at the mosque threw rocks downward at the Jews below at the Western Wall. A group of Jews known as the Temple Mount Faithful have expressed a desire to rebuild the ancient Jewish Temple in that area, turning into an attack on the mosque in 1990, resisted by Palestinians.\n\nThe Al-Aqsa Intifada is named after the mosque (supposedly due to Ariel Sharon's controversial visit to the Temple Mount in September 2000), as are the Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades.\n\nSome Muslims have accused Israel of weakening the walls of the mosque during archaeological excavation

It has been long thought (decades) by many members of radical Islam that the state of Israel must not exist.  Old habits die hard, hate breeds more hate.

The Dome of MyArsss. Muslims love this mosque because they claim Muhammad flew up to heaven from it, which allows them to call Jewww rusalem THEIR holyland and gives them an excuse to kill jews. Biggest party in Islam.

You've almost got it. :) God sent angel Gabriel ("Jibreel" in Arabic) to Muhammad peace be upon him, to relay the Message (The Quran/Koran). So in every case, he got the Message from the angel.\n\nThe Quran is "The Words of God/Allah" to Muhammad, to tell the people.\n\nYes, prayer, the one involving prostration (called "Salat" or "salah") is five times a day. It is good for the body, did you know that oprah and "experts" and the like say we should meditate five times a day? coincidence? Well, I do believe it is healthier and more in tune with God to "visit" him often, instead of storing it all up for Sundays don't ya think? :D :D Of course, we can pray in our own words (called "dua") any time we want, too.\n\nWell, if you know a Muslim who hates white people, he is likely part of a religion called "The Nation of Islam (NOI)" which is actually different from orthodox Islam. NOI take their beliefs from Bible AND Quran. Muslims, only from Quran, recognizing the Bible to have errors and The Quran doesn't. (try reading it! you'll be shocked!) If he's not NOI, then still he is wrong to hate any "race", please see proof of that in the Quran itself, at http://muttaqun.com/prejudice.html\n\nPlease begin with a primer on the basic beliefs of a Muslim, at http://muttaqun.com/shahada.html\n\nYou can also read the Quran online at http://muttaqun.com/quran and I highly recommend you use The Noble Quran english translation to get the best translation. The footnotes are a super big help, too, as they crossreference verses to help you see the bigger picture, i.e. to help keep it in context.\n\nFinally, you may feel more comfortable simply joining the Muttaqiyyah egroup and ask muslim sisters any questions you want, they are very open to questions there. That's at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/muttaqiyyah\n\nKeep asking questions! Islam highly encourages everyone to seek knowledge!\n\nTake care and good questions/observations/study!

It's where the religion began. Mecca is in Arabia, and that's where Mohammed is from. Mecca is their Jerusalem.

Here's the deal:\nAccording to the Bible, the Jews were ordered by God to take over that land, which was then called Canaan. The Jews did conquer it but were forcibly removed by the Romans in 70 and 135 AD from the land after their revolts were crushed.\nThe Jews returned to that land in 1948 after Israel was re-established as a nation by the UN, so don't let anyone tell you Israel is a rogue nation. Israel has the right to exist; it came into being legitimately. The Palestinians claim to have ownership of that land, but this is not true.\nThey claim that the Canaanites were Arabs, when they were not. According to the Bible, Noah had three sons, one of whom was Shem, the ancestor of the Jews and Arabs. The Canaanites came from the line of Ham, Noah's other son. So the Canaanites were not Semites, therefore they were not Arabs. The Canaanites are gone and so are their descendants, so there is no one left to rightfully fight the Jews for that land.\nThe main problem is misdirected nationalism. The Palestinians didn't even call themselves Palestinians until AFTER 1948. The Palestinian people are merely a ploy being used by the Muslim nations to regain land that was lost to the Jews. After all, according to Islam, any land that is conquered in the name of Allah can never again come under non-Muslim rule, or a Jihad, or Holy War, must be declared in order to regain that land.\nThere are elements in the media that affect this conflict. The Palestinian media greatly brainwashes the youth of Palestine into believing a warped view of history.\nSo in short, religion has everything to do with this conflict, nothing else really matters. It's Judeo-Christianity vs. Islam.

Ezekiel writes under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit that Israel will be returned to their land after being dispersed among the world. \n\nThis prophecy was fulfilled in May of 1948 with the establishment of the Nation of Israel.
