Islam and Mormonism
Mormonism and Islam have been compared to one another ever since the earliest origins of the former in the nineteenth century, often by detractors of one religion or the other—or both.〔(Thomas Marsh and Orson Hyde Affidavit ), for example; see also (PBS's American Prophet: Prologue ) and Todd J. Harris, (A Comparison of Muhammad and Joseph Smith in the Prophetic Pattern ), a thesis submitted for a Master of Arts degree at Brigham Young University in 2007, footnotes on pages 1 and 2.〕 For instance, Joseph Smith, the founding prophet of Mormonism, was referred to as "the modern Mahomet" by the ''New York Herald'',〔(PBS's American Prophet: Prologue ).〕 shortly after his murder in June 1844. This epithet repeated a comparison that had been made from Smith's earliest career,〔(Thomas Marsh and Orson Hyde Affidavit ), also Todd J. Harris, (A Comparison of Muhammad and Joseph Smith in the Prophetic Pattern ), a thesis submitted for a Master of Arts degree at Brigham Young University in 2007, footnotes on pages 1 and 2.〕 one that was not intended at the time to be complimentary. Comparison of the Mormon and Muslim prophets still occurs today, sometimes for derogatory or polemical reasons〔See, for example:(Joseph Smith and Muhammad: The Similarities ), and Eric Johnson,(Joseph Smith and Muhammad ), a book published by the "Mormonism Research Ministry" and offered for sale by the anti-Mormon "(Utah Lighthouse Ministries )".〕 but also for more scholarly and neutral purposes.〔See, for instance, Todd J. Harris, (A Comparison of Muhammad and Joseph Smith in the Prophetic Pattern ), a thesis submitted for a Master of Arts degree at Brigham Young University in 2007.〕 While Mormonism and Islam certainly have many similarities, there are also significant, fundamental differences between the two religions. Mormon–Muslim relations have historically been cordial;〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=U.S. Muslims share friendship, similar values with Mormons )〕 recent years have seen increasing dialogue between adherents of the two faiths, and cooperation in charitable endeavors, especially in the Middle and Far East.〔(World Muslim Congress: Mormons and Muslims ); (Mormon-Muslim Interfaith Ramadan Dinner ).〕
This article compares the teachings of Islam to those of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), which is the largest Latter Day Saint church today.〔(Adherents Dot Com ), see under "Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints" and "Community of Christ"; the Community of Christ is the second-largest Latter Day Saint organization.〕 Other smaller denominations of the Latter Day Saint movement, such as the Community of Christ and the Church of Christ (Temple Lot), hold significantly different doctrines than those taught by the LDS Church. However, important differences remain between Islamic teaching and the doctrines of these other churches, even where they differ with those of the LDS Church.〔See Other Latter Day Saint denominations and Islam, below.〕
==Overview==
Islam and Mormonism both originate in the Abrahamic traditions; each differs from mainstream Christianity in being non-Trinitarian. However, where Islam insists upon the complete oneness and uniqueness of God (Allah), Mormonism asserts that the Godhead is made up of three distinct "personages", each of which is referred to as "a god".〔(Encyclopedia of Mormonism ), entry: "Godhead".〕 Furthermore, its doctrine of Eternal Progression asserts that God was once a man,〔See (The King Follet Sermon: Parallel texts )〕 and that humans may become gods themselves.〔Doctrine & Covenants 132:20.〕 All of this is emphatically rejected by Islam, which views these teachings as polytheistic, and contrary to the doctrines of the Qur'an and Islam's prophet, Muhammad.
Both Islam and Mormonism believe that the Christian religion as originally established by Jesus was a true religion, but that Christianity subsequently became deformed to the point that it was beyond simple reformation. Hence, each religion sees its founder (Muhammad for Islam, and Joseph Smith for Mormonism) as being a true prophet of God, called to re-establish the true faith. However, each religion differs in regard to how it views Jesus: Mormonism sees him as the promised Messiah and the Son of God. Islam agrees that Jesus (whom the Qur'an calls "Isa") was the Messiah, but insists that he was only a mortal man, not the Son of God or a divine being. Despite great opposition from many other Christian sects, Mormonism identifies itself as a Christian religion, the "restoration" of primitive Christianity. Islam does not refer to itself as "Christian"; it asserts that Jesus and all true followers of Christ's teachings were (and are) actually Muslims – a term that means "submitters to God" – in their belief, not Christians as that term is used today.〔(Jesus Was Muslim ), from the (Islam-Voice ) website.〕
