Why Is The Original Manuscript Of The New Testament Lost? by AntiChristian: 5:22pm On Aug 13, 2022
I read online (Wikipedia and several other sources) that the Original manuscript of the New testament did not survive?

Why and how is this possible?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biblical_manuscript (Under "Dating" )

It was this same KJV that Bishop Àjàyí Crowder translated to Yoruba with all the defects! And other languages have their version.

Where is the original manuscripts of the Quran without the diacritical marks?


Muhammad died in 632 AD

Abu Bakr the first Caliph ruled for 2 years during which he started the first compilation and he completed it before he died and kept it.

The second caliph Umar ruled for 10 years from 634-644AD and he was in custody of manuscripts until he died after which Hafsa his daughter kept custody of it.

During the rule of Uthman (who ruled 12years after Muhammad had died) that is more than 12 years after the first Quran was compiled. Uthman ruled for 12years so in between those 12 years while he was ruling, people called his attention to the different ways people were reciting the Quran (which has been the norm even when Muhammad was alive and he didn't think of unifying the Quran into one dialect because Muhammad himself said the Quran was revealed to him in 7 different dialects)


But Uthman decided to unify the Quran into one standardized version when neither Allah nor Muhammad gave him such Instruction when he was alive.

"...So 'Uthman sent a message to Hafsa saying, "Send us the manuscripts of the Qur'an so that we may compile the Qur'anic materials in perfect copies and return the manuscripts to you." Hafsa sent it to 'Uthman. 'Uthman then ordered Zaid bin Thabit, 'Abdullah bin AzZubair, Said bin Al-As and 'AbdurRahman bin Harith bin Hisham to rewrite the manuscripts in perfect copies."... Sahih Bukhari 4987

So Uthman sent for the manuscript with Hafsa
"...So 'Uthman sent a message to Hafsa saying, "Send us the manuscripts of the Qur'an so that we may compile the Qur'anic materials in perfect copies and return the manuscripts to you." Hafsa sent it to 'Uthman. 'Uthman then ordered Zaid bin Thabit, 'Abdullah bin AzZubair, Said bin Al-As and 'AbdurRahman bin Harith bin Hisham [b]to rewrite the manuscripts in perfect copies."... Sahih Bukhari 6:61:510 or 4987


So Uthman then ordered his scribes to write the new Quran in the dialect of the Quraysh and when they were done with their editing and standardization they buried the evidence of their alterations by burning the evidence.


"...'Uthman sent to every Muslim province one copy of what they had copied, and ordered that all the other Qur'anic materials, whether written in fragmentary manuscripts or whole copies, [b]be burnt..." Sahih Bukhari 6:61:510


Hence the Quran sent to all provinces were compiled during the reign of Uthman who started ruling 12 years after Muhammad died and ruled for another 12 Years and the compilation and editing was done within his 12 Years of rule, which was 652 A.D. 20years after Muhammad had died

Also, as at that 652 A.D. there was no diacritical marks in Arabic language, it only came into existence in 8th century and the 9th century, long after Muhammad had died and long after Uthman had given out his own standardized version of the Quran

The arabic skeletal script is without the diacritical marks and vowelization:
Fathah = ah
Dhammah = oo
Kasrah = ii

None of the above dialect marks existed in the time of the prophet or Uthman in 652 AD and the present day Quran has them

That means nobody in the world has the original Quran with the original language without diacritical marks and vowelizations and that means the Quran compiled is not the same as the one Muhammad received

WHERE IS THE QURAN GIVEN TO MUHAMMAD?




If you ask a Muslim to bring a Quran he will bring out one of the 25 versions of the Quran [b]That means all the current Quran you have in the world today are fake because Utman destroyed all the other Qirats and gave you only one Qirat but 300 Years after, ibn mujahid synthesized the new 7 Qirats from nowhere and that's the source of the Quran you're reading today.[/b]After the compilation they burnt other manuscripts of the Quran which was against what Mohammed said, Mohammed said the Quran was revealed to him in 7 different dialects but after Uthman and Zayd were done with their fabrications they burnt all the other Quranic manuscripts including the other dialects of revelation. The instructions to burn the other manuscripts was never given by Muhammad before he died nor by Allah, Zayd and Uthman only acted on their own accounts, and they burnt the evidence to cover up their fabrications and gave the Muslim world the revised edition of the Quran. But the Shia were angry because they knew the Quran had been corrupted. The Muslims continue to read Uthmanic codex of the Quran until 934 AD when ibn mujahid read that Muhammad actually said he received the Quran in 7 different dialects but since Uthman and Zayd had burnt the other dialects up, ibn mujahid then created his own 7 dialects of the Quran which are Nafi; ibn Kathir; ibn 'Amir; Abu Amr; Asim, Hafs; Hamzah; al-Kisai.In 1924 in Cairo Egypt, The Hafs manuscript was edited into the Quran you have today.Hence today's Quran is not the same as the one Mohammed received, it's not the same as the one Uthman and Zayd fabricated, it's a different one entirely.

Re: Why Is The Original Manuscript Of The New Testament Lost? by Exmilitant(m): 7:46am On Aug 14, 2022
OP explain what you meant by "original manuscript".
The writers of the new testament weren't domiciled in one location; Paul died in Rome, John died in the island of Patmos and so on.

It took fourteen years for Jerome to go round the then known world and rake up the writings of Christ's disciples and apostles.

Jerome gathered thousands of letters, memoirs, diaries, autobiographies and, biographies allegedly written by Christ's disciples and apostles.

The church had to convene a council to select and decide which is true and fake. After the selections were made and canonized, the Masoretics( a group of scholars empowered by the Jews to gather and out the scriptures together) got angry that the church was deviating in adding writings that wasn't proven, e.g the books of Revelation, Hebrews, 2&3 John, Jude and so on.

They decided to over haul the New Testament in total and maintained the TANAK. What we call the, Old Testament.

A lot of councils has been set up by the church over the years to review the New Testament and, in each council, lots of books were axed, like the, acts of Paul, the acts of Mary Magdalene, the acts of Peter and many others.

What we call the New Testament has come a long way. Orthodox Christians don't have the books of Revelation and Jude in their Bible, Catholics has the books of, Wisdom, Search, Tobith, Maccabees 1&2 about 72 in all, while Protestant followed the Jamian canon which has 66 books.

So, you just can say what is original or not where it concerns the New Testament.
Because few years after the dead of Jesus, a lot of sects arose with their own writings claiming to hear directly from the holy spirit.

The Gnostic and the Arians are examples of sects that arose in the first century and tried to corrupt the teachings of Christs.

But one solace we have is that the couldn't touch the part where Christ himself said, "the holy spirit will teach you ALL truths."

The Bible foretold a time when people from all the nations will form one organization and they will use the complete message from God to: format RACISM, POLITICS and MILITARY SERVICES from the hearts of millions that accepted their message! Isaiah 2:2-4; Micah 4:1-3

If you're mentally OK you should know that if the information as inspired by the Author (God) is truly lost the purpose can never be achieved nah.
To illustrate, imagine a researcher lay a claim saying people will talk with their neighbours in far away lands and get immediate response even see themselves vividly "if they follow all the proceedings as stated in his research" then some people claimed that part of his manuscripts are lost but a group of people picked up the same manuscript and they were able to perform what he said exactly as stated do you think any SANE individual should harbour any doubt regarding the completeness of His message?
Well that's ordinary common sense for you! wink

Did i quote any Bible or Qur'an verse to you before? What was quoted was from wikipedia as in the OP!

Allaah says about the Jews (interpretation of the meaning): “Do you (faithful believers) covet that they will belive in your religion in spite of the fact that a party of them (Jewish rabbis) used to hear the Word of Allaah (the Tawraat), then they used to change it knowingly after they understood it?” [al-Baqarah 2:75]

Allaah also said (interpretation of the meaning): “Among those who are Jews, there are some who displace words from (their) right places and say: ‘We hear your word (O Muhammad) and disobey,’ and ‘Hear and let you (Muhammad) hear nothing.’ And Raa’ina [in Arabic this means, ‘Be careful, listen to us and we listen to you,’ whereas in Hebrew it means ‘an insult.’] with a twist of their tongues and as a mockery of the religion (Islam). And if only they had said, ‘We hear and obey,’ and ‘Do make us understand,’ it would have been better for them, and more proper, but Allaah has cursed them for their disbelief, so they believe not except for a few.” [al-Nisaa’ 4:46]

Allah says (interpretation of the meaning): “So because of their breach of their covenant, We cursed them, and made their hearts grow hard. They change the words from their (right) places and have abandoned a good part of the Message that was sent to them. And you will not cease to discover deceit in them, except a few of them. But forgive them, and overlook (their misdeeds). Verily, Allaah loves al-Muhsineen (good-doers).” [al-Maa’idah 5:13]

So it becomes quite clear that the ways in which the Children of Israel tampered with the Tawraat and Injeel include the following:

1.Changing
2. Omitting
3. Adding things and attributing to Allaah words that He did not say
4. Misinterpreting the words of Allaah.

When Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) was sent, the original Tawraat and Injeel had already been altered and distorted. Allaah revealed the Qur’aan to His Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), and guaranteed that He Himself would preserve it, as He says (interpretation of the meaning): “Verily We: it is We Who have sent down the Dhikr (i.e., the Qur’aan) and surely, We will guard it (from corruption).” [al-Hijr 15:9]

Allaah revealed the Qur’aan to His Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), and guaranteed that He Himself would preserve it, as He says (interpretation of the meaning): “Verily We: it is We Who have sent down the Dhikr (i.e., the Qur’aan) and surely, We will guard it (from corruption).” [al-Hijr 15:9]

No. You’re lying. None of what you posted up there supports your conclusion.

Your Allah must have been confused if he now claims that the books you claim were changed, omitted and misinterpreted is the same book that your Quran has come to confirm!
Isn’t that foolishness? To come and confirm what is corrupted? Let’s be using our senses na!



“ He has sent down upon you, [O Muhammad], the Book in truth, confirming what was before it. And He revealed the Torah and the Gospel”
-Quran 3:3


In surah 61:6
“And [mention] when Jesus, the son of Mary, said, "O Children of Israel, indeed I am the messenger of Allāh to you confirming what came before me of the Torah and bringing good tidings of a messenger to come after me, whose name is Aḥmad." But when he came to them with clear evidences, they said, "This is obvious magic."

Exmilitant:
OP explain what you meant by "original manuscript".
The writers of the new testament weren't domiciled in one location; Paul died in Rome, John died in the island of Patmos and so on.

It took fourteen years for Jerome to go round the then known world and rake up the writings of Christ's disciples and apostles.

Jerome gathered thousands of letters, memoirs, diaries, autobiographies and, biographies allegedly written by Christ's disciples and apostles.

The church had to convene a council to select and decide which is true and fake. After the selections were made and canonized, the Masoretics( a group of scholars empowered by the Jews to gather and out the scriptures together) got angry that the church was deviating in adding writings that wasn't proven, e.g the books of Revelation, Hebrews, 2&3 John, Jude and so on.

They decided to over haul the New Testament in total and maintained the TANAK. What we call the, Old Testament.

A lot of councils has been set up by the church over the years to review the New Testament and, in each council, lots of books were axed, like the, acts of Paul, the acts of Mary Magdalene, the acts of Peter and many others.

What we call the New Testament has come a long way. Orthodox Christians don't have the books of Revelation and Jude in their Bible, Catholics has the books of, Wisdom, Search, Tobith, Maccabees 1&2 about 72 in all, while Protestant followed the Jamian canon which has 66 books.

So, you just can say what is original or not where it concerns the New Testament.
Because few years after the dead of Jesus, a lot of sects arose with their own writings claiming to hear directly from the holy spirit.

The Gnostic and the Arians are examples of sects that arose in the first century and tried to corrupt the teachings of Christs.

But one solace we have is that the couldn't touch the part where Christ himself said, "the holy spirit will teach you ALL truths."


I dont belive the gnostics corrupted the word. . I have read the gnostics gospels of Philip, Thomas, Mary of magdala, apocryphon of John, origin of the archon, Gospel of judas iscariot, revelations of Peter & writings of James the brother of jesus(and leader of the desciples after the death of jesus) it all makes sense. The Romans and the Jews killed jesus and had been killing Christians, how do you now trust them to the extent of them compiling your bible and giving you their own sabbath day to worship. Ask the very important question. Why were the Romans killing Christians to establish its christian Catholic church? If you read those gnostics gospels you will never be a contemporary Christian

AntiChristian:
I read online (Wikipedia and several other sources) that the Original manuscript of the New testament did not survive?

Why and how is this possible?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biblical_manuscript (Under "Dating" )

It was this same KJV that Bishop Àjàyí Crowder translated to Yoruba with all the defects! And other languages have their version.
Most books written in 400 AD did not survive. But praise to God we have copies of it.

Show me the scripture which says that the Bible is incomplete, the way MOOhaMAD's companions admitted that the koran is incomplete?

How will the Bible copyists and editors put such verse directly in the Bible?

Answer the question of the thread first before quoting one Christian Hadith from unknown source?

Where is the original manuscript of the new testament and why is the lost?
