If the Qur'an is true, then Islam is false
by Matt Slick

If the Qur'an is true, then Islam is false. Why? Because the Qur'an says to trust the Gospels, but the four Gospels contradict the Qur'an. This means the Qur'an can't be true if it says the gospel message is also true. In order to show this, I will quote several verses from the Qur'an. The more important ones are bolded for easy reference later.

1. None can change Allah's words

Surah 6:34, "Rejected were the messengers before thee: with patience and constancy they bore their rejection and their wrongs, until Our aid did reach them: there is none that can alter the words (and decrees) of Allah. Already hast thou received some account of those messengers."

Surah 6:115, "The word of thy Lord doth find its fulfilment in truth and in justice: None can change His words: for He is the one who heareth and knoweth all."

Surah 18:27, "And recite (and teach) what has been revealed to thee of the Book of thy Lord: none can change His Words, and none wilt thou find as a refuge other than Him."

2. Moses was given the Torah

Surah 2:87, "We gave Moses the Book and followed him up with a succession of messengers; We gave Jesus the son of Mary Clear (Signs) and strengthened him with the holy spirit. Is it that whenever there comes to you a messenger with what ye yourselves desire not, ye are puffed up with pride?- Some ye called impostors, and others ye slay!"

Surah 3:3, "It is He Who sent down to thee (step by step), in truth, the Book, confirming what went before it; and He sent down the Law (of Moses) and the Gospel (of Jesus) before this, as a guide to mankind, and He sent down the criterion (of judgment between right and wrong)."

3. David was given the Psalms

Surah 4:163, "We have sent thee inspiration, as We sent it to Noah and the Messengers after him: we sent inspiration to Abraham, Isma'il, Isaac, Jacob and the Tribes, to Jesus, Job, Jonah, Aaron, and Solomon, and to David We gave the Psalms."

4. Jesus was given the gospel

Surah 57:27, "Then, in their wake, We followed them up with (others of) Our messengers: We sent after them Jesus the son of Mary, and bestowed on him the Gospel; and We ordained in the hearts of those who followed him Compassion and Mercy. But the Monasticism which they invented for themselves, We did not prescribe for them: (We commanded) only the seeking for the Good Pleasure of Allah; but that they did not foster as they should have done. Yet We bestowed, on those among them who believed, their (due) reward, but many of them are rebellious transgressors."

5. Christians should judge by what is in the Gospel

5:47, "Let the people of the Gospel judge by what Allah hath revealed therein. If any do fail to judge by (the light of) what Allah hath revealed, they are (no better than) those who rebel."

6. The Qur'an confirms the Torah, the Psalms, and the Gospels and guards them

Surah 5:48 To thee [the people of the gospel] We sent the Scripture in truth, confirming the scripture that came before it, and guarding it in safety: so judge between them by what Allah hath revealed, and follow not their vain desires, diverging from the Truth that hath come to thee. To each among you have we prescribed a law and an open way. If Allah had so willed, He would have made you a single people, but (His plan is) to test you in what He hath given you: so strive as in a race in all virtues. The goal of you all is to Allah; it is He that will show you the truth of the matters in which ye dispute;"

7. Ask Christians about spiritual things

Surah 10.94, "If thou wert in doubt as to what We have revealed unto thee, then ask those who have been reading the Book from before thee: the Truth hath indeed come to thee from thy Lord: so be in no wise of those in doubt."

8. Curse on those who say God has a son

Surah 9:30, "The Jews call 'Uzair a son of Allah, and the Christians call Christ the son of Allah. That is a saying from their mouth; (in this) they but imitate what the unbelievers of old used to say. Allah's curse be on them: how they are deluded away from the Truth!"

9. Jesus not crucified

Surah 4:157, "That they said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah";- but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not."

Alright, so we see that...

1. None can change Allah's words (Surah 6:34; 6:115; 18:27)
2. Jesus was given the gospel by Allah (Surah 57:27)
3. The Qur'an confirms the Gospels (Surah 5:48)
4. The Gospels contradict the Qur'an

So, if the Qur'an confirms the Gospels which say that Jesus was crucified (Matthew 27:26–31; Mark 15:15–20; Luke 23:32–34; John 19:17-18), and the Qur'an says Jesus was not crucified (Surah 4:157), then the Qur'an is false. But if it says the Gospels are false, then the Qur'an denies its own teaching and Islam is false.

Sahih International
Do you covet [the hope, O believers], that they would believe for you while a party of them used to hear the words of Allah and then distort the Torah after they had understood it while they were knowing?

2.76
Sahih International: And when they meet those who believe, they say, "We have believed"; but when they are alone with one another, they say, "Do you talk to them about what Allah has revealed to you so they can argue with you about it before your Lord?" Then will you not reason?

2.77
Sahih International: But do they not know that Allah knows what they conceal and what they declare?


2.78
Sahih International: And among them are unlettered ones who do not know the Scripture except in wishful thinking, but they are only assuming 2.79 Then woe to those who write the Book with their own hands, and then say:"This is from Allah," to traffic with it for miserable price!- Woe to them for what their hands do write, and for the gain they make thereby. Allah says in Quran: Curse on those who write god's scriptures by their hands .. Curse on them what they earn
O Christians, do you really edit the book of God (bible) and earn from copy rights and deserve wrath and curse of Allah?

So, what's your point?

ParrishNorwood:


3:78

{Sahih International
And indeed, there is among them a party who alter the Scripture with their tongues so you may think it is from the Scripture, but it is not from the Scripture. And they say, "This is from Allah ," but it is not from Allah . And they speak untruth about Allah while they know.}

OLAADEGBU:


Then kindly point out where the qur'an is altered in the OP.

ParrishNorwood:


"The text has disappeared under the interpretation.”

OLAADEGBU:


What is the original text, if you insist that it has disappeared?

May Allah bless You
most modern Christians don't even believe in Muhammad as a messenger and they keep quoting verses that says to confirm frm Gospels, indeed they edit the word of God.

OLAADEGBU

What the Quran mean is that Moses, David and Jesus (peace and blessings be upon all of them) all got their individual revelations in their original form (probably meaning as an oral message). The Quran maintains that the books of the Jews and Christians have been corrupted, altered and edited over time. When the Quran talks about the Torah, Psalms and the Gospel it is speaking about the original versions revealed unto Moses, David and Jesus. It is not talking about the current Torah, Psalms and the Four Canonical Gospels we have today.

Rilwayne001:


You may want to argue this, then join me here. https://www.nairaland.com/2172133/question-did-jesus-read-bible/15 "IT has often been said, that anything may be proved from the Bible, but before anything can be admitted as proved by the Bible, the Bible itself must be proved to be true; for if the Bible be not true, or the truth of it be doubtful, it ceases to have authority, and cannot be admitted as proof of anything."

OLAADEGBU:


I have no doubt that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah and that Allah has no son. It's just that Yahweh has a Son and His name is Jesus.
