RE: Muslim thinks that suffering happens to muslims because Allah is testing their faith

Christians have this line of thinking as well.
The Abrahamic God sounds like such a insecure egotistic god. "I want everyone to love me, and I want them to love me even when times aren't good! I also want them to take my word that I exist, and take my word that it's actually my word" It's like the story of Job where God lets the Devil screw Job over just to win a bet. How insecure do you have to be to test to see if people REALLY love you? Imagine if a woman paid an escort to hook up with her husband to see if he'd have sex with her and cheat on her? Or if a man paid an escort to hook up with his wife. You would consider them insecure, and horrible people.
Now imagine if you were (as far as you know) single, and an attractive person of the gender you are attracted to came up to you and started hitting on you. The two of you really hit it off, and end up sleeping together. Then someone comes out and says "I can't believe you cheated on me you bastard/bitch!" That's kind of what the Abrahamic God is like.
