Jesus is a deception. Tell me who taught you and your ancestors christianity? The ans is oyinbo brought the bible to Nigeria. Slaves were not allowed to read or write..only allowed to read the bible. Why? How can tou trust a people that came and plundered our land, enslaved our brothers, sisters and children. And yet still worship the same God they worship. Its ludicrous!

Show me any other prophet apart from Jesus with the exact claim? Both from quran or bible.

Who said and wrote those stories in the quran?
Was it your Allah?
Was it jibril?
Was it muhammed?
Was it his followers?
Was it the caliphs?

Mind you the stories sounds similar to what existed 600years before it. grin

The Glorious Qur’an, the Muslims’ religious
Scripture, was
revealed in Arabic to the Prophet Muhammad
(p) through the angel Gabriel.
The revelation occurred piecemeal, over a
period of twenty-three years, sometimes in brief verses and sometimes in
longer chapters
Upon receiving revelation, the Prophet (p)
engaged himself in the duty
of conveying the message to his Companions
through reciting the exact
words he heard in their exact order. This is
evident in his inclusion of even the words of Allah which were directed
specifically to him,for example: “Qul” (“Say [to the people,O Muhammad]”). The Qur’an’s rhythmic style and eloquent expression
make it easy to memorize.
The Prophet (p) encouraged his Companions to learn each verse that was revealed and transmit it to others. The Qur’an was also required to be recited regularly as an act of worship, especially during the daily meditative prayers (salat). Through these means, many repeatedly heard passages from the revelation recited to them, memorized them and used them in prayer. The entire Qur’an was memorized verbatim (word for word) by some of the Prophet’s Companions.
Among them were Zaid ibn Thabit, Ubayy ibn Ka’b, Mu’adh ibn Jabal, and Abu Zaid.
the sequence or order of the Qur’an was arranged by the Prophet (p) himself and was also well-known to the Companions. Each Ramadan, the Prophet (p) would repeat after the angel Gabriel (reciting) the entire Qur’an in its exact order as far as it had been revealed,while in the presence of a number of his Companions. In the year of his death, he recited it twice. Thereby, the order of verses in each chapter and the order of the chapters became reinforced in the memories of each of the Companions present. As the Companions spread out to various
provinces with different populations,
they took their recitations with them in order to instruct others
In this way, the same Qur’an became widely
retained in the memories of many people across vast and diverse areas of land. Indeed, memorization of the Qur’an emerged into a continuous tradition across the centuries, with centers/schools for
memorization being established across the Muslim world. The Qur’an is the only book, religious or secular, that has been memorized completely by millions of people.

“(This is) the revelation of the book(quran) in which there is no doubt, from the Lord of the
worlds. Will they say: ‘He has forged it!’ Nay, it
is the Truth from the Lord ...”. (32:2-3)
“But Allah bears witness that what He has
revealed to you (O Muhammad), He has revealed from His own knowledge, and the
angels bear witness (to it), but sufficient is
Allah for witness”. (4:166).
“And you (O Muhammad) did not recite any
book before this, nor you were able to
transcribe one with your right hand. In that case, indeed those who talk vanity could have
doubted.” (29:48).

The reasons why there were stories in the quran was
1. To remind the people of what happened to the previous nations that rejected the teachings of their prophets.
2.the non believers actually went to meet the prophet to ask 'you claim to be a prophet sent by Allah,tell us what happened to the previous nations before us if you are truthful'
so Allah revealed them

Fine, can you discuss about the part of the quran that Urthman burnt and destroyed and also the part Aisha supposed to have said were eaten by a tamed goat?
The part that were abrogated and caused to be forgotten as well.

The part that were abrogated and caused to be forgotten as well.

the quran was revealed to the prophet during a period of time.as it is being revealed,the prophet would recite it to his companions to which they would memorise it by heart.dont forget,it was revealed in their mother tongue.the prophet also had a secretary that would write it down.some were written on stones,leaves etc.
These verses were always recited during the five daily prayers everyday for easy memorisation.during each ramadan,the angel would come dome down and ask the prophet to recite it as it was revealed,telling the prophet the sequence of the words and verses,which verse should be in which chapter,till it was compiled into whole unit.as it was been revealed,the prophet would teach his companions and they memorised it by heart.the quran was revealed in the language of the prophet from the quraish from the quraish tribe.
The Noble Quran was revealed in one language
and that is Arabic. It has only one original Arabic
copy. Arabic 1400 years ago had 7 dialects.
There exists today one original copy of the
Noble in Saudi Arabia today.
When the Noble Quran was revealed to Prophet
Muhammad peace be upon him, it was revealed
in Arabic, and in the Quraishi dialect. The
Quraishi dialect is the most proper Arabic dialect
that properly uses the Arabic words without
altering their sound. The Quraishi dialect was the most popular
dialect in the Middle East at that time, and is
today the dialect used among Arabs who speak
Proper Arabic.It is very important in the Islamic faith that
when we recite the Noble Quran, we recite it in
the Quraishi dialect or what we call today in the
proper Arabic. We can't pronounce for instance "th" as "sa" or "za". We can't pronounce "la" as "laman". We can't pronounce "ja" and "ga", etc...
In Islam, properly reciting the Words of Allah
Almighty is the way it must be practiced.
Otherwise, it would be considered a sin and
disrespect toward Allah Almighty and the individual would be disobeying Allah Almighty
and would gain bad deeds that will count against him in the Day of Judgment if he did it intentionally.When Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him
received the Noble Quran's Revelations in a 10-
years span, he had everything documented on
paper and saved with his close disciples and
immediate family. He also had the entire Noble
Quran memorized along with many of his followers. The Noble Quran during the times of
our beloved Prophet peace be upon him was
carefully preserved and protected from man's
corruption. It was documented on paper and it
was entirely memorized by many. When Uthman, the third Caliph in Islam,
compiled the Noble Quran, he did not
determine the numerical order of the Noble
Chapters and the Noble Verses. The entire Noble
Quran as I said was already documented and
memorized. Chapters from the Noble Quran were recited by our Prophet peace be upon hi
at least 5 times a day during the Muslims' fiv
daily prayers. Also, the Noble Quran was all
recited during the month of Ramadan, as it is
still done today. Historically, almost every Muslim scholar had
the entire Noble Quran memorized by heart. If
you live among Muslims or know well how the
Muslims deal with the Noble Quran, then you
would know that tampering with the Noble
Quran is impossible among the Muslims. If someone recites the Noble Quran to the public
(in the Mosque for instance) and makes a
mistake, then he would find many who would
correct him because they would have the entire
Noble Quran memorized by heart. The memorization of the entire Noble Quran is
something sacred in Islam. It helped the Noble
Quran remain error-free from man's false
documentation.When Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him
died, Islam was still small geographically. The
Muslims mostly existed in the two cities of
Mecca and Madina. Comparing those two cities'
size to the Middle East region's size, they would
not even be 0.0001% in comparison. After the death of our beloved Prophet, Islam
started to expand in the Middle East region. Not
only the People of the entire region didn't have
the same dialect, but also they had different
languages. The languages that were spoken in
the region at that time were Arabic (with its 7 dialects), Persian, Assyrian, Hebrew and some
Greek. All of these languages are quite different
from each others. You would need a translator
to translate almost 100% of the conversation if
you were to pick two languages and have two
people converse with them, each person with one language. As the Muslims expanded through the entire
region, which is thousands of squared miles in
area, the Noble Quran was documented at
different places with sometimes different
languages and Arabic dialects as well. Islam mostly spread throughout the region
during the first two Caliphs (our Prophet's
disciples); may Allah Almighty be pleased with
them, Abu-Baker Al-Siddeeq, and Omar bin Al-
Khattab. They were mostly concerned with
spreading Islam to the people of the entire region and never had the time, nor the
rulership (since Islam wasn't quite spread
throughout the entire region until toward the
end of the second disciple's time) to unify the
Noble Quran or the teaching of the Noble Quran
with one dialect in recitation and spelling. When Uthman bin Aaffan (the third disciple)
came, Islam was pretty stable in the region, and
he had rulership to implement the Quraishi
dialect among all the Arabic speaking people in
the entire region, and to teach them the Noble
Quran through that dialect only.If the Noble Quran is recited in a different dialect than the Quraishi one, and if
one tries to write down what he is reciting, he
could and would end up with different words in
spelling and in some cases in meaning as well
than the original copy of the Noble Quran. When Uthman got hold of all of the Qurans that
were written in different dialects, and in some
cases were altered to sound exactly like the
other dialects, he ordered for them to get burnt
because they did not use the proper Arabic that
was revealed unto our beloved Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, and in some
cases their words were different because of this
dialect difference. He then compiled all of the
Noble Surahs (Chapters) of the Noble Quran that
were already written during the time of Prophet
Muhammad in the city of Madina and formed what we call today the one true copy of the
"Noble Quran".

yeah, I know the truth. and the truth is that Jesus Christ is long dead. the Holy Quran has declared him to be dead and he would never return to this world.!

you cannot use the issue of Jesus Christ to convince me cos the issue is very clear to me. Jesus Christ is dead!!!

The Noble Quran 4:157

وَقَوْلِهِمْ إِنَّا قَتَلْنَا ٱلْمَسِيحَ عِيسَى ٱبْنَ مَرْيَمَ رَسُولَ ٱللَّهِ وَمَا قَتَلُوهُ وَمَا صَلَبُوهُ وَلَٰكِن شُبِّهَ لَهُمْ ۚ وَإِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱخْتَلَفُوا۟ فِيهِ لَفِى شَكٍّ مِّنْهُ ۚ مَا لَهُم بِهِۦ مِنْ عِلْمٍ إِلَّا ٱتِّبَاعَ ٱلظَّنِّ ۚ وَمَا قَتَلُوهُ يَقِينًۢا

Waqawlihim inna qatalna almaseeha AAeesa ibna maryama rasoola Allahi wama qataloohu wama salaboohu walakin shubbiha lahum wainna allatheena ikhtalafoo feehi lafee shakkin minhu ma lahum bihi min AAilmin illa ittibaAAa alththanni wama qataloohu yaqeenan

And because of their saying (in boast), "We killed Messiah 'Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), the Messenger of Allah," - but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but the resemblance of 'Iesa (Jesus) was put over another man (and they killed that man), and those who differ therein are full of doubts. They have no (certain) knowledge, they follow nothing but conjecture. For surely; they killed him not [i.e. 'Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary)]:

The Noble Quran 4:158

بَل رَّفَعَهُ ٱللَّهُ إِلَيْهِ ۚ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ عَزِيزًا حَكِيمًا

Bal rafaAAahu Allahu ilayhi wakana Allahu AAazeezan hakeeman

But Allah raised him ['Iesa (Jesus)] up (with his body and soul) unto Himself (and he is in the heavens). And Allah is Ever All-Powerful, All-Wise.

I see that Allah have to kill an innocent person in place of Iesa here too. So much for you muslim's long denial of the blood atonement from an innocent soul. undecided

I thank God that the Arabic text of the Holy Quran is still preserved till today and there is no doubt concerning this.

so the problems are in the wrong and unnecessary additions done in those translations.

And their saying, ‘We did kill the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah;’ whereas they slew him not, nor crucified him, but he was made to appear to them like (one crucified); and those who differ therein are certainly in (a state of) doubt about it; they have no (definite) knowledge thereof, but only follow a conjecture; and they did not convert this (conjecture) into a certainty;

Now count the translations that used the phrase 'RAISED TO HIMSELF' against others that used 'EXALTED'. Then tell me your translation is better than Yusuf Ali that uses "RAISED" Or M. M. Pikthall that used "TOOK" which are most authentic and generally accepted translation known today.

there is no need counting.
1. the question you should rather be asking yourself is where does the Holy Quran describes Allah to be?
if it is that Allah is in the heavens alone, then u can prove to me that "RAISED TO HIMSELF" means he was taken upwards.
but the Holy Quran is replete with verses mentioning that Allah is in the heavens as well as on the earth. He is every where! (43:84)
it also mentions that if there are 3 people gathered together, He is the fourth. and if there are 5 ppl He is the 6th.. (58:7) etc.

there are many other verses which speaks of "going to Allah" but no Muslim, no translator has ever taken it to mean bodily or physical meeting with Allah...
for example see :

Indeed we belong to Allah, and indeed to Him we will return." (2:156)
So flee to Allah . Indeed, I am to you from Him a clear warner. (51:50)

(37:99)
Yusuf Ali

He said: "I will go to my Lord! He will surely guide me!

etc...

I already mentioned there are lots of Places where such expressions have been used but no one understands such going to Allah to be literal or bodily! so why in the case of Jesus.

this is one of the basic issues between Ahmadiyya Muslims and the other Muslims, that is the death of Jesus ascension, descent etc... and also with Christians.

if those translators could not be ok with one translation, then we as a community have the right to make our own translation. and we have always been challenging others with regards to the translations me do on verses like this which have been misunderstood!

You cannot force me to make use of their translations. if I would be discussing with a Muslim, I would rather prefer to discuss with him based on the pure text of the Holy Quran and not it's translation!!

individuals translate according to their own understanding. so if they have made errors with regards to some verses why should I agree to their mistaken translations !!

adefolakol:


If you want to test the protection of Holy Qur'an, try burning one...Verily, We Ourself have sent down this Exhortation, and most surely We will be its Guardian.(Q15 vs 9)


so according to you, burning the Holy Quran (or it not burning) is an evidence of its protection??

subhanallah!!!

what if same happens with any other scripture? if they try burning it and it doesn't burn would that mean it is Divinely protected??

to be frank, I like the response Maamin gave you. Hadhrat Uthman (Ra) ordered the burning of some copies of the Quran so that a standard version might be used. (this does not in any way affects it's authenticity)

if one tries to burn the Holy Quran and it would not burn, then why the hue and cry among the Muslims when an American pastor declared that he would burn the Holy Quran?? why don't they leave him to do so and himself witness a miracle of the Holy Quran?

isn't he going to be right to state before Allah that the Muslims themselves prevented him from witnessing Your divine protection of your revealed book, hence my not convinced about Islam !!!

look, leave all these petty issues and focus on what Allah has explained in His book. reflect upon it for it is a store house of immense treasures.
there is no objection that is raised against the Holy Quran and the Holy Prophet pbuh that the Holy Quran is not having response to!
it is surely having response to every allegations and objections. but you Muslims have lost the capacity and ability to attain to those truths in the Holy Quran because you have rejected the one sent by Allah as the Promised Messiah and Mahdi of this age!
He is Hadhrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (as) of Qadian.

Jesus is a deception. Tell me who taught you and your ancestors christianity? The ans is oyinbo brought the bible to Nigeria. Slaves were not allowed to read or write..only allowed to read the bible. Why? How can tou trust a people that came and plundered our land, enslaved our brothers, sisters and children. And yet still worship the same God they worship. Its ludicrous!

Christians brought slavery to an end in America and other parts of the world whereas your religion Islam promotes slavery up to this moment and you're here talking

it's a shame you don't know the history of how your Arab masters traded in slaves in millions from Africa and denied those slaves of offspring by cutting off their manhood. That's why you hardly find indigenous black Arabs unlike black Americans

A willing student here. Please can you point me to book(s) on this? How "my" Arab Masters traded slaves in Millions and denied them offsprings by cutting of their Manhood! And you can never find indigenous "Black Arabs" in the middles East! Do you know why? We are Africans and they are Arabs. nothing like " Black Arabs". So, tell me, how did the Black Americans get to the Americas? Yeah, I know it! The Muslims traded in Black Slaves to the Americas and the Christians ended it.

Please do yourself a favor, read up on how your "Christian" brethren became the owners of America, Australia, South Africa. Read up on how the Natives were converted in Mexico, read up on what happened to the Apache, the Comanche, the Shoshone, the Hopi, the Ute. Please read up on what happened to The First Nation Tribes native to America and Canada. Please read up how the Aborigines in Australia were reduced to as little as 300,000 people from nearly 5,000,000 people in a little over 250 years when the Europeans; your Christians brethren set foot on their soil. When you are done, I have more to give you to read up on. Until then, leave the Arabs alone.

Yes, they made horrible choices but they were never alone. And while reading up as I suggested, get books written s by the hands of the oppressed and not the oppressors. wink

BlowBack already gave a robust reply to your kind since 2017:

The Europeans never used religion to justify the enslavement of Africans rather they justified the enslavement of millions of Africans citing contemporary scientific views mainly drawn from the Darwin evolutionary theory.
It was Christian values that put an end to the European slave trade.
And it is very important that we revisit Islam when discussing the latest Libyan slave auctions. Because it is only Muslims that have so far engaged in this dastardly act.
From Shekau boasting of selling abducted Christian school girls in slave markets to the Islamic State auctioning of captured Christian, Yazidi and Shia women to the existing slave markets in mauritania.
Muslims have no problem against slavery as their Quran justifies capturing and selling off of Kafirs.

Islam was a movement that was originally set out to liberate all men and make them equal in the eyes of social,moral,mental and spiritual justice. But immediately after the death of the founding prophet,it became carnal-Rivalry,quest for earthly power,tribalism,mediocrity,division and undue brutality that it original set to to extinguish creeped in.

It's militant nature developed as a result of the struggle to survive the the ruthlesss attempts of the oppressive, unfair,tribal and zealous old school traditions to wipe it out before it takes its roots. It is truly ironic what it has become today,almost like the opposite of what the true mission set out to accomplish.

Europeans never used Religion for the enslavement of Africa you say? According to you, they used contemporary scientific views mainly drawn from Darwin evolutionary theory to justify this dastardly actor their. Right? Please tell me, when did Charles Darwin lived? Charles Darwin wrote his book "On the Origin of Species" in 1859. As a matter of fact Charles Darwin was born 12 February 1809 and died 19 April 1882. Now tell me when did you Christian brethren set foot on America Soil? On Africa Soil, when did they get to India. You see, it is not right to try and re-write history. The cold hard fact of History tells us that, ALL Empire building Nations take or Make Slaves of subjugated people.

The Arabs and the Europeans are all guilty in the heinous crime of human trade. Saying only the Arabs trade in slaves is a big fat lie and you know that.

At the bolded, show me one verse in the Quran that supports Slavery or Slave trade and I will show you Ten (10) verses in the Bible that says the same. And don't tell me they are Old Testament commands. Those verses were supposedly dictated by the Holy Spirit on the authority of Jehovah!
