Why were All The Prophets Born In The Middle East? by praxs(m): 5:11am On Nov 22, 2015 |
sometimes i just wonder were there any prophet for Americans, south americans, Russians, chinese, indians too. i know there were some many prophets and some of which we dont know names. Do we know names of prophets in other places too? if yes pls tell me some names. if not pls explain why we dont know their names. And if you explain in view of the bible or Quran will be great..... Further? Were dere people in other parts of the world during the time of the older prophets? How was thier lives like? Were there even people in Nigeria den? Just curious to know.. People existing in other parts of the world during the time of jesus! How wud d be judged considering that jesus stated that no man can come to the father except tro me. I believe the msg of jesus did not circulate all over the world immediately, even as of now some parts hv not yet heard of the gospel |

The reason is simply because the Bible and the Koran tells the story of some specific tribes in the Middle East. Believe me when I say this, the authors of the two "holy books" never knew the two continents we call The Americas today existed, not to talk of people living in them. 11 Likes 1 Share |

tartar9:nonsense!! If Allah sent each nation a prophet,why is the Jews have soo many prophet? And the arab one fake prophet? And the quranic verse you quote contradicte this one: Surah 29:27: And (as for Abraham), We bestowed upon him Isaac and (Isaac’s son) Jacob, and caused prophethood and revelation to continue among his offspring. PROPHETHOOD is to come from the root of Abraham,Isaac and Jacob alone, and the are ALL JEWS. Arab and the rest of the world, no prophet are to come from their root. The reason God chose the Jews is explained here https://www.nairaland.com/2076306/gods-chosen-people-jews-isnt 3 Likes 1 Share |

Your god claimed he created everyone in his own image but went further to say the Jews are his chosen ones. Hence all the prophets came from there. This is incontrovertible proof that the Jewish god aka mr Yahweh was invented by the Jews and they put themselves over and above all others. Same thing the Igbos would do with amadioha or the Yorubas with Sango and the other thousand variants of god. The people where such god came from would put themselves first. It's that simple. 14 Likes 1 Share |

malvisguy212:Mohammed in his own word said in Quran 2:222: They will question thee concerning the monthly course. Say: 'It is hurt; so go apart from women during the monthly course, and do not approach them till they are clean. When they have cleansed themselves, then come unto them as God has commanded you.' Truly, God loves those who repent, and He loves those who cleanse themselves'. But in hadith he did the complete opposite. Narrated 'Aisha: The Prophet and I used to take a bath from a single pot while we were Junub. During the menses, he used to order me to put on an Izar (dress worn below the waist) and used to handle me. While in Itikaf, he used to bring his head near me and I would wash it while I used to be in my periods (menses). (Sahih al-Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 6, Number 298) Narrated 'Abdur-Rahman bin Al-Aswad: (on the authority of his father) 'Aisha said: "Whenever Allah's Apostle wanted to handle anyone of us during her periods (menses), he used to order her to put on an Izar and start handling her." 'Aisha added, "None of you could control his sexual desires as the Prophet could." (Sahih al-Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 6, Number 299; see also Number 300). This mohammed na serios guy man prophet. I gbadun him pattern nobe small. The woman wrapper enjoyed his life to be fullest. All hail emperor prophet Mo', the islamic perfect man. 2 Likes 1 Share |

tartar9:okay now listen. Surah 6:155-157 And this is a Book which We have revealed as a blessing: so follow it and be righteous, that ye may receive mercy: Lest ye should say: "The Book was sent down to two Peoples before us, and for our part, we remained unacquainted with all that they learned by assiduous study :" Or lest ye should say: "If the Book had only been sent down to us, we should have followed its guidance better than they." Now then hath come unto you a clear (sign) from your Lord,- and a guide and a mercy: then who could do more wrong than one who rejecteth Allah's signs, and turneth away therefrom? In good time shall We requite those who turn away from Our signs, with a dreadful penalty, for their turning away. The quran say ishmael(the Arab) was a prophet and was given a book . YET the quran say no Warner were sent before muhammed and that no Warner were given a book before muhammed Surah 28:46 Nor wast thou at the side of (the Mountain of) Tur when we called (to Moses). Yet (art thou sent) as Mercy from thy Lord, to give warning to a people to whom NO WARNER HAD COME BEFORE THEE : in order that they may receive admonition. Surah 34:44 But We had NOT GIVEN THEM BOOKS which they could study, nor sent messengers to them before thee as Warners. And; Surah 36:2-6 By the Wise Koran, thou art truly among the Envoys on a straight path; the sending down of the All-mighty, the All-wise, that thou mayest warn a people WHOSE FATHERS WERE NEVER WARNED, so they are heedless. Ishmael is explicitly said to have received the Book (S. 6:89), but S. 34:44 states that the Arabs had not received any book before Muhammad's time. We will leave it to the Muslims to try and make sense of these glaring contradictions. Furthermore, what are we supposed to think of Ishmael’s Book? Did he not pass it on to his alleged descendants, which Muslims claim were the Meccan Arabs? If he did, then how can the Quran claim that the Arabs hadn’t received a book prior to Muhammad’s time? If Ishmael didn’t pass it on, then what happened to his Book? Even worse, would that not imply that Ishmael was disobedient by not delivering the message given to him? 1 Like |

Re: Why were All The Prophets Born In The Middle East? by malvisguy212: 12:52pm On Nov 24, 2015 |
vedaxcool:going by your logic, we should reply the op "why all the rice is in china?" your way of thinking is way beyond what the quran say, every nation was sent a prophet ,what was the name of the prophet that was sent to the American? Let me guess, isis? What is the name of the prophet sent in Nigeria? I guess is shakau the leader of boko haram. The truth is that it is ONLY the Jews had covenant wit God concerning the prophetic race, it was through the Jews God will reach to the gentile just as He promised Abraham, through Abraham he will multiple the world. So I will return the question back to you, why will the Jews be the only one to eat rice ? A true prophet will not act the way as Muhammad did. He will not force his faith on the people but will win them over by his virtue. He will not wage war on others to spread his message. He will not command armies. He will not kill. Yet, Muhammad committed all these evil deeds in the name of Allah. Surah 29:27: And (as for Abraham), We bestowed upon him Isaac and (Isaac’s son) Jacob, and caused prophethood and revelation to continue among his offspring. |

praxs:Most of the so-called prophets you see in the bible are just mere guessers. The only one among them who did what is true is Danyal(aka Daniel) and he isn't even as they portray him in the bible. We have thousands of prophets in our own side of the world too, but they were suppressed by colonial rule. I will post the story of some of them here: Luwabi, Bongo, Akinkanju, Ofo, Deop and thousands others are African products and they prophesied the colonial rule of the whites. They even made quotations about what to be done to avoid being colonised, but our ancestors failed to listen to them.
