He worships the God of Abraham. All three religions do.

I agree with the decision. No religion should be announced over the heads of everyone. It is part of their desire to dominate both the intellectual discussion and to make everyone aware of their power. Since ears don't have doors that you should knock on we have to protect the mind from this kind of bs.

Actually the Suni call to prayer, what this topic is about says.
There is no God but Allah.
Believe me when I tell you that Christians don't see Allah as God.

If you do, it will be by choice.

When the gospel has been presented to you, you choose to either believe or to continue in unbelief. Further, one always has the option of not simply accepting at face value one messenger's word but can go in depth by studying the New Testament for themselves. The Bible says to study to show thyself approved unto God; A workman that needed not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. As long as the blood is still running warm in your veins, you have time to repent and believe.
This is just as awful as the muslim call to prayer imho. Loud, obnoxious, and spoiled.

I did not understand a Latin mass, but it did not prevent me from appreciating the tone and melody of the words.

Much a do about nothing Joe. Prayer is much like poetry.
However in this case it was a desire to broadcast over the large PA system which was heard by everyone. I have not been in a Muslim country but when I have heard it it sounds more like a demand than a prayer.

How could a Catholic not know the story of Abraham, Sarah & Hagar? Were you cutting class? I attended Mormon studies as a child, the backdoor was too convenient.

However, the word Allah is just a foreign word for God. Exactly like the word Dieu is a foreign word for God.

And the fact IS that Islam, Christianity and Judaism are all founded on the beliefs of Abraham, and all three worship the same God.
Some believe Islam is a made up religion by pagans in those days. Never really connected at all, just as made up as the Palestinians......ah, the world of religion!

Show me where Jesus did that? No you can't. No, Hebrew Bible (Jewish law and scriptures) are irrelevant to Christianity.

Jesus: "I died for you".
Muhammad/Allah: "You kill and die for me".
