RT @nick_routledge: @CTMathewes @nils_gilman Qu’ran 2:136 “Say: We believe in God and that which was revealed unto us, and unto Abraham, and Ismail, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the tribes, and that which Moses and Jesus received, & that which the Prophets received from their Lord. We make no distinctions between any of them.”
