No Christian denies that they practised polygamy, they would however affirm that they were wrong for doing what they did. From even in the Garden of Eden God set out His standard as monogamy with Adam and Eve. It is reiterated in Deuteronomy 17:17 and polygamists were disqualified from church leadership in 1 Timothy 3:2, 12; Titus 1:6.AdamB wrote:There are examples in the Bible of prophets who practised polygyny, like Abraham, Jacob, Saul, David and Solomon. Christians would deny it but those prophets were not their prophets (of Christianity).

Jesus Christ." I Corinthians 15:56-57
HE WOULD APPEAR DURING A TIME OF SPIRITUAL APOSTASY AND POLITICAL UNREST
PROPHECY: "He grew up before him like a tender shoot and like a root out of dry ground." Isaiah 53:2
FULFILLMENT: The root out of dry ground analogy refers to the Messiah's appearance during a time of spiritual drought and political
upheaval. History shows Israel was in a state of chaos during the first century. The religious leaders were unscrupulous, more than 400
years had passed since the last canonical prophet, and Israel was under the tyrannical domination of Rome. Jewish rebellions were frequent
and the average Jew was more concerned with religious rites and worldly affairs instead of their love for God. Jesus appeared on the scene
with new revelations from God, established the New Covenant, urged an apostate Israel to return to God, and brought the gift of Salvation.
HE WOULD APPEAR BEFORE "THE SCEPTER DEPARTS FROM JUDAH”
PROPHECY: “The scepter shall not depart from Judah nor a lawgiver from between his feet until Shiloh comes...” Genesis 49:10
FULFILLMENT: According to this passage, two signs would take place shortly after the Messiah appeared. Judah would lose its
scepter/tribal identity and Jewish judicial power would be eradicated. In this verse, the word scepter is best translated into tribal staff. For
centuries, each of the twelve tribes of Israel possessed their own tribal staff. This prophecy states the tribal staff, or tribal identity, of Judah
would not be lost until the Messiah came. Even when Judah was deprived of its sovereignty during the Babylonian captivity, it never lost its
national identity or tribal staff. The people still possessed their own laws, lawgivers, and judges.
Judah began to lose its power when Herod the Great (a Gentile) succeeded the Maccabean dynasty, the last Jewish family to reign in
Jerusalem. Furthermore, the legal power of the Sanhedrin was now being limited under Roman domination. This loss of power included the
ability to execute capital punishment sometime between 7 and 11 A.D. The Jews believed the Messiah would appear before Judah lost its
identity but with the legal restrictions imposed on them by Rome, their power was rapidly diminishing. The question remained: where was
the Messiah?
The Jews were well aware of the loss of power. The Jewish Talmud even documents the lamentations of their people with the words Woe
unto us, for the scepter has been taken from Judah and the Messiah has not appeared! But the Messiah had appeared. He was Jesus, a
humble Galilean teacher, traveling about the countryside.
HE WOULD COME BEFORE THE DESTRUCTION OF THE TEMPLE
PROPHECY: “And the Lord whom you seek will suddenly come to His temple.” Malachi 3:1
FULFILLMENT: The above verse (and others mentioned in Psalms, Daniel, Haggai, and Zechariah) gives a definite reference to the
existence of the Jewish temple when the Messiah appears. This means the temple must still be standing when He comes. Of course, the
Jewish temple was destroyed in 70 A.D. by the Romans and has never been rebuilt- for almost 2,000 years!
The book of Daniel not only speaks of the destruction of the temple, he also provides us with an exact sequence of events:
“...The Messiah shall be cut off, but not for Himself. And the people of the prince who is to come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary.”
Daniel 9:26
According to Daniel:
The Messiah comes (This happened with Jesus’ birth in 1 A.D.)
The Messiah is cut off (an idiom for killed) (This happened with Jesus’ crucifixion in 33 A.D.)
Jerusalem and the temple are destroyed (This happened in 70 A.D.).
THE EXACT YEAR OF HIS DEATH
PROPHECY: “Seventy weeks are determined for your people and for your holy city... Know therefore and understand this: from the
issuing of the decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Messiah the Prince, there shall be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks... After
sixty-two weeks the Messiah shall be cut off... And the people of the ruler who is to come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary... Then he
shall confirm a covenant with many for one week...” Daniel 9:24-27
FULFILLMENT: This prophecy is known as Daniel’s 70 weeks prophecy. Biblical scholars agree the interpretation of the word week
represents seven years. This comes from the Hebrew word for week (shabua) which literally means seven. Seven sets of seven (49 years)
added to Sixty-two sets of seven (434 years) added to one seven (7 years) gives us a total of 490 years.
God reveals to Daniel 483 years would pass between the decree to rebuild Jerusalem and the Messiah's death.

Isn't that what I said? Satan is a jinn created from smokeless fire, not an angel (created from light) that has fallen like my christian brethren say. Angels do exactly as they are commanded. Jinns have free will just like mankind.
Read about the story in the Quran. Satan used to be in the company of the angels. When Allah created Adam HE commanded the angels (and Iblis, later Satan) to bow (of respect) to Adam. All of the angels did so because that's their nature. However, Iblis did not. Allah asked him why he didn't obey (it's not that Allah didn't know). Iblis said, "I was created from fire and he (Adam) from clay, I AM BETTER THAN HIM."
Satan has no power to challenge GOD (Allah) but rather Allah allows him to try to lead astray Allah's servants from among mankind by whispering to them suggesting evil desires. There's no war or rapture to come where you know who will come on a cloud to save ppl...all Nancy stories.

That's not true, Jesus didn't claim that he was GOD.
It was the "pious" corrupt followers, who knew better than him, knew what they wanted to make GOD (into a man) by making a man into GOD.
Jesus is innocent of that accusation. He (may Allah be pleased with him) was a Humble Servant of God.
Read about it in the Quran:
"And behold! God will say [i.e. on the Day of Judgment]: 'Oh Jesus, the son of Mary! Did you say unto men, worship me and my mother as gods in derogation of God?' He will say: 'Glory to Thee! Never could I say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing, You would indeed have known it. You know what is in my heart, though I know not what is in Yours. For You know in full all that is hidden. Never did I say to them anything except what You commanded me to say: 'Worship God, my Lord and your Lord.' And I was a witness over them while I lived among them. When You took me up, You were the Watcher over them, and You are a witness to all things'" (5:116-117).
Bukhari (72:715)
Rifa'a divorced his wife whereupon 'AbdurRahman bin Az-Zubair Al-Qurazi married her. 'Aisha said that the lady (came), wearing a green veil (and complained to her (Aisha) of her husband and showed her a green spot on her skin caused by beating). It was the habit of ladies to support each other, so when Allah's Apostle came, 'Aisha said, "I have not seen any woman suffering as much as the believing women. Look! Her skin is greener than her clothes!"

Translation of Sahih Bukhari by M. Muhsin Khan:

Rifa'a divorced his wife whereupon 'AbdurRahman bin Az-Zubair Al-Qurazi married her. 'Aisha said that the lady (came), wearing a green veil (and complained to her (Aisha) of her husband and showed her a green spot on her skin caused by beating).

I am very strong and can satisfy her but she is disobedient and wants to go back to Rifa'a." Allah's Apostle said, to her, "If that is your intention, then know that it is unlawful for you to remarry Rifa'a unless Abdur-Rahman has had sexual intercourse with you." Then the Prophet saw two boys with 'Abdur-Rahman and asked (him), "Are these your sons?" On that 'AbdurRahman said, "Yes." The Prophet said, "You claim what you claim (i.e.. that he is impotent)? But by Allah, these boys resemble him as a crow resembles a crow,"

Habit7,Habit7 wrote:Firstly, Aisha said from her point of view that Muslim women suffer more than others.This statement does not mean that the suffering was from abuse by their husbands.
Secondly, if you are highlighting that "it was the habit of ladies to support each other" are you saying Aisha was lying too?I am saying that the narrator put this in because it is relevant that Aishah's statement was a natural emotional response to support her fellow woman without even hearing both sides of the story.
Thirdly, Abdur-Rahman is not saying that his wife is lying about the abuse (her skin didn't turn green on its own) he is saying that she is lying about the reason for the abuse. He beat her not because he is impotent, but because she was disobedient and wanted to go back to Rifa'a.
