At least the German version of Evangelii gaudium [see the excerpt in the attachment], namely no. 252 quotes Lumen gentium, 16, but presents a false translation saying that the Muslims “sich zum Glauben Abrahams bekennen und mit uns den einen Gott anbeten, den barmherzigen, der die Menschen am Jüngsten Tag richten wird“ or in my English translation of this German version, that the Muslims „confess the faith of Abraham and worship with us the one God, the merciful, who will judge men on the Last Day”. The Latin original, however, of this passage in Lumen gentium goes as „qui [the Muslims] fidem Abrahae se tenere profitentes, nobiscum Deum adorant unicum, misericordem, homines die novissimo iudicaturum”, or in my English translation: “who confessing to hold on the faith of Abraham worship with us the [or perhaps: a] unique, merciful God, who will judge on the last day”. Please realise that the Latin original only says that the Muslims consider themselves as holding to the faith of Abraham, whereas at least the German version of Evangelii gaudium says the Muslims actually hold the faith of Abraham – an assertion which is obviously wrong.
De plus, LA DOCTRINE ISLAMIQUE FAIT D'ALLAH LE CRÉATEUR DE TOUT, ABSOLUMENT TOUT, Y COMPRIS LE MAL LUI-MËME !Additionally, I contradict the teaching of Lumen gentium – or at least its usual interpretation – that the Allah of Islamic doctrine can be identified with the Christian God. Not only because this doctrine denies the Holy Trinity, but also because of the following reason: The Islamic doctrine kills the problem of theodicy [“What is the origin of the evil`”] by isolating the idea of the omnipotence of Allah and arguing that Allah creates positively also the evil wishes and deeds of his creatures. Thereby he is kind of omnipotent devil and surely not the Christian God, who is the omnipotent unity of justice and love.
