About The Author
Dil R. Banu
Muslim by birth and practice, is a retired lecturer from a prestigious school in her homeland, Bangladesh, and settled in America about thirty years ago. She worked as a substitute teacher in local elementary schools for a year or so, and then she began to operate a licensed family daycare in her rented apartment, where all her neighbors were Christians. This job was a turning point in her life, transforming her from a daycare provider into a writer.
Her favorite subject has been Comparative Religion since her teenage years. She loves to learn about God and His religions, which people of the world believe in and follow in His name. She finds it amazing when people follow different religions in the name of the same God but claim that all others are misled and destined for eternal hell except them.
She believes that a person’s faith in God should be prudent and reflective instead of being blind or self-made. Since life on this earth is short and most uncertain, and people have no chance to correct their mistakes once they cross the one-way exit of death and find themselves in the wrong place, she believes the sooner they identify the true path of God and try to follow it, the better for them.

ANNA ASKED: WAS MUHAMMAD A PROPHET?
While living in America as an immigrant Muslim for a couple of years, I came to know that people of the Western world, especially the Jews and the Christians, have lots of misconceptions to accept Muhammad as the last Prophet of God and the Quran that he claimed to receive from God as His last and final guidebook for all of mankind. It is mainly for them as well as for other non-Muslims. I wrote this book where I have tried to narrate some prophecies on Muhammad’s advent, along with his role and mission as described in both parts of the Bible and other major scriptures of the world. I hope it might help them to reshuffle their thoughts about Muhammad and to look at him differently, if they know what their own Holy Scriptures have really said about him.
One God for All
Utilizing the Holy Scriptures-the Bible and the Quran both, this book “One God For All” presents a series of letters written to the well-known American evangelist Franklin Graham in reply to the first part of his comment where he said, “The god of Islam is not the same God of the Christian or the Judeo-Christian faith. It is a different god.” Then he said, “And I believe Islam is a very evil and a very wicked religion.” Mr. Graham made this comment on Mr. Bush’s Presidential inauguration ceremony on Jan 20, 2001, after he offered his prayer.
The author who is a Muslim by birth and practice, found his comment not only unauthentic but malicious and misleading for the people of the Western world-especially the Christians who hardly know anything about the God of the Muslims or about their religion Islam.
Based on the countless evidence from both parts of the Bible and the Quran-the last and the final guidebook of God, the author has made it distinctly clear that the Muslims comprising today nearly one-fifth population of the world, have still been worshiping the same One God of Jesus, Moses, and Abraham since Muhammad was sent last reviving, rectifying, and restoring their pure monotheistic faith in Islam, about fourteen hundred years ago.
Abraham Was Commanded To Sacrifice Ishmael- His First Born
The history of the Semitic Religion tells us people belonging to the world’s three great monotheistic religions—Judaism, Christianity, and Islam—have inherited their faith from Abraham. Their holy scriptures—both Bible and Quran—also mentioned Abraham as the father of many nations. He was also called the friend of God because he overcame many difficult trials or tests that he faced to prove his faith, love, and submission to God. Most astonishing and gruesome of those trials, as it is believed by the Jews, the Christians, and the Muslims equally, is to sacrifice his only son of his old age by the command of God. They also believe equally God commanded Abraham to stop when he was ready with a knife to kill his tied-up son inside a thick bush. They also believe equally he was provided with a ram and commanded to sacrifice it in place of his son.
But one thing they have differed completely on is about the intended son of his sacrifice. Both the Jews and the Christians claim the intended son of Abraham’s sacrifice is Isaac—his younger son through his wife Sarah—while the Muslims claim he is Ishmael—his firstborn through his second wife Hagar, Sarah’s Egyptian handmaid. This book describes in detail how or why this difference or discrepancy in their claim occurred, based on the statements of the Bible, the Quran, and the narration of the Judeo-Christian and Islamic Tradition.

What Readers Are Saying
I found his explanation so open, educative and interesting that I ordered for several copies at a time for me and for my other friends. After I read the book myself, I agreed with Rae C. Bernard-the reviewer of the book hundred percent. It appear to me, the author did lot of research while writing this book and did a wonderful job to bring the people of all faiths together under the banner of One God.
After the creation of Adam, just one original message has been repeatedly delivered to mankind throughout the history of humanity. Thus,to remind people about it and bring them back on track, many prophets and messengers including Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad were sent by the only true God to convey this message:
