Annunaki:
This is a very good development and other western countries ought to follow suit but what is really needed is for terror verses in the quoran and hadiths to be edited out. Problem is doing this will expose islam and the quoran to ridicule and the average muslim will rather have his terrorist brother killing innocent people for allahh than edit mohammed's contraption labelled as the quoran.

REVISE THE WORD OF YOUR CREATOR ?
You shold be ashamed of your self Quran can never be revised Xstian had more than 50 versions of Bible (Inconsistency, Scientific Errors, Historical Fallacies)you all CLAIMED TO HAVE HOLLYGHOST YET YOU PPLE GO IN DIFFERENT DIMENSIONS.
“Ye shall not add unto the word which I (God) command you, neither shall ye diminish [ought] from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you.” (Deuteronomy 4:2)

Prove to me in your book(Bible) that it never contradict science.
In fact the word ''Bible'' was never mention in the Bible


“Then woe to those who write the book with their own hands and then say: ‘This is from God’, to traffic with it for a miserable price. Woe to them for what their hands do write and for the gain they make thereby.” (Quran 2:79)

Quran 61 vs 8
يُرِيدُونَ لِيُطْفِئُوا نُورَ اللَّهِ بِأَفْوَاهِهِمْ وَاللَّهُ مُتِمُّ نُورِهِ وَلَوْ كَرِهَ الْكَافِرُونَ
Their intention is to extinguish Allah's Light (by blowing) with their mouths: But Allah will complete (the revelation of) His Light, even though the Unbelievers may detest (it).

Al-Quran chapter 2 verse 281. And fear the Day when ye shall be brought back to Allah. Then shall every
soul be paid what it earned, and none shall be dealt with unjustly.


THE IDENTITY IN THE FINGERPRINT

Everyone, including identical twins, has a unique fingerprint. In other words, people's identities are coded at their fingertips. This coding system may also be compared to the barcode system that is used today.
While it is stated in the Qur'an that it is easy for Allah to bring man back to life after death, peoples' fingerprints are particularly emphasized:

Yes, We are able to put together in perfect order the very tips of his fingers. (Qur'an, 75:4)
The emphasis on fingerprints has a very special meaning. This is because shapes and details on everyone's fingerprint are unique to each individual. Every person who is alive or who has ever lived in this world has a set of unique fingerprints. Furthermore, even identical twins having the very same DNA sequence have their own set of fingerprints.
Fingerprints attain their final shape before birth and remain the same for a lifetime unless a permanent scar appears. That is why fingerprints are accepted as a very important proof of identity, exclusive to their owner. The science of fingerprints has been used as a non-erring identity determination method.
However, what is important is that this feature of fingerprints was only discovered in the late 19th century. Before then, people regarded fingerprints as ordinary curves without any specific importance or meaning. However in the Qur'an, Allah points to the fingertips, which did not attract anyone's attention at that time, and calls our attention to their importance. This importance has only been fully understood in our day.

THE SUN WILL EXPIRE AFTER SOME TIME
And the sun runs to a fixed resting place. That is the decree of the Almighty, the All-Knowing. (Surah Ya Sin, 36:38)
The Sun has been emitting heat for around 5 billion years as a result of the constant chemical reactions taking place on its surface. At a moment determined by Allah in the future, these reactions will eventually come to an end, and the Sun will lose all its energy and finally go out. In that context, the above verse may be a reference to the Sun's energy one day coming to an end. (Allah knows the truth.)

The Arabic word "mustaqarrin" in the verse refers to a particular place or time. The word "tajree," translated as "runs," bears such meanings as "to move, to act swiftly, to move about, to flow." It appears from the meanings of the words that the Sun will continue in its course in time and space, but that this motion will continue until a specific, predetermined time. The verse " When the Sun is compacted in blackness " (Surat at-Takwir, 1) which appears in descriptions of Doomsday, tells us that such a time will be coming. The specific timing is known only to Allah.

The Arabic word "taqdeeru," translated as "decree" in the verse, includes such meanings as "to appoint, to determine the destiny of something, to measure." By this expression in verse 38 of Surah Ya Sin we are told that the life span of the Sun is limited to a specific period, one ordained by Allah. Other verses of the Qur'an on the subject read:
Allah is He Who raised up the heavens without any support – you can see that – and then established Himself firmly on the Throne. He made the Sun and Moon subservient, each running for a specified term. He directs the whole affair. He makes the Signs clear so that hopefully you will be certain about the meeting with your Lord. (Surat ar- Ra'd, 13:2)


He makes night merge into day and day merge into night, and He has made the Sun and Moon subservient, each one running until a specified time. That is Allah, your Lord. The Kingdom is His. Those you call on besides Him have no power over even the smallest speck. (Surah Fatir, 35:13)

He created the heavens and the Earth with truth. He wraps the night around the day and wraps the day around the night, and has made the Sun and Moon subservient, each one running for a specified term. Is He not indeed the Almighty, the Endlessly Forgiving? (Surah az-Zumar, 5)
The use of the word "musamman" in the above verses shows that the life span of the Sun will run for a "specified term." Scientific analysis regarding the end of the Sun describes it as each second, 4 million tons of matter are converted into energy 1, and says that the Sun will die when that fuel has all been consumed. 2 The heat and light emitted from the Sun is the energy released as matter is consumed as hydrogen nuclei turn into helium in the nuclear fusion process. The Sun's energy, and therefore its life, will thus come to an end once this fuel has been used up. (Allah knows the truth.) A report titled "The Death of the Sun" by the BBC News Science Department says:
...The Sun will gradually die. As a star's core crashes inwards, it eventually becomes hot enough to ignite another of its constituent atoms, helium. Helium atoms fuse together to form carbon. When the helium supply runs out, the centre collapses again and the atmosphere inflates. The Sun isn't massive enough to fully re-ignite its core for a third time. So it goes on expanding, shedding its atmosphere in a series of bursts... The dying core eventually forms a white dwarf - a spherical diamond the size of the Earth, made of carbon and oxygen. From this point on the Sun will gradually fade away, becoming dimmer and dimmer until its light is finally snuffed out. 3
A documentary, also called "The Death of the Sun," broadcast by National Geographic TV, provides the following description:
It generates heat and sustains life on our planet. But like humans, the sun has a limited lifespan. As our star ages, it will become hotter and expand, evaporating all of our oceans and killing all life on planet Earth... The sun will get hotter as it ages and burns fuel faster. Temperatures will increase, eventually wiping out animal life, evaporating our oceans and killing all plant life... the sun will swell and become a red giant star, swallowing up the nearest planets. Its gravitational pull will lessen and perhaps allow Earth to escape. By the end, it will shrink into a white dwarf star, emitting a week glow... 4
Scientists have only recently unravelled the structure of the Sun and discovered what goes on inside it. Before that, nobody knew how the Sun obtained its energy or how it emitted heat and light. The way that such a giant mass of energy would one day consume all its energy and expire was revealed 1,400 years ago in the Qur'an shows the presence of a sublime knowledge. That knowledge belongs to our Lord, Whose knowledge enfolds all things. Another verse of the Qur'an reveals:
"... My Lord encompasses all things in His knowledge so will you not pay heed?" (Surat Al-An'am, 80)

"To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on the earth, and all that is between them, and all that is under the soil." (Surat Tâ-Hâ: 6)

Interpretation of the ayahs by some scholars:

Ibn-Kathir states that the ayah means that everything is at His disposal and works according to His orders and His will. He is the sole Creator of everything and no one else is a partner in this activity with Him. Concerning and all that is under the soil, Muhammad Ibn Ka’b says that, “it means what is under the seventh layer of the earth”.
Al-Galalein states that “To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on the earth” means all of creation, whereas, “and all that is under the soil” signifies that which lies under the humid dust, in other words; the seventh layer of the earth.

Scientific implications in this ayah:
1. First "All that is in the heavens"

The word heaven in the Arabic language is derived from the word “Sumu’w” meaning elevation and loftiness, which is why it is said that everything above you is the heavens. The lower heaven is the one that faces the earth in this universe. At the same time, it means the higher cosmos around us. It comprises the different celestial bodies which are found in various forms and what’s found in them, around them or emitted from them such as the energy which fills the universe in a vivid presentation or in some invisible hidden form.

Allah (SWT) created the heavens, just as He created everything, and He raised it with no pillars to rest on. He created angels and other creatures of whom we know nothing to inhabit the heavens. Allah has protected the heavens from devils. From an astronomical point of view, astronomers estimate the observed part of the universe is more than 24 billion light-years. This is equivalent to 24 billion x 9.5 thousand billion Kilometers, which is 228 thousand trillion Kilometers. This is only the lower heaven. This observed part of the universe is in a continuous state of extension, expanding at an astonishing speed to reach an end that no one knows but Allah (SWT). He says what can be translated as, "And indeed We have adorned the nearest heaven with lamps, and We have made such lamps (as) missiles to drive away the Shayâtîn (devils), and have prepared for them the torment of the blazing Fire." (Surat Al-Mulk (Dominion): 5). About the heavens, Allah also says: "With power did We construct the heaven. Verily, We are Able to extend the vastness of space thereof. "(Surat Adh-Dhariyat (The Winds that Scatter): 47).

The observed part of the universe has been constructed with considerable accuracy in a unified manner, starting with planets, moons, asteroids, comets and meteors all circling the stars which group together in thousands of millions to form galaxies. Galaxies then assemble in local galactic groups, then in galactic clusters, then in larger clusters and so on. These groups continue to get larger and larger, the extent of which is known only to Allah.

Astronomers estimate that the observed part of the universe (the lower heaven) has more than 200 thousand million galaxies, some of which are larger than our galaxy, the Milky Way, and some others are much smaller than ours. Galaxies also contain nebulae of various shapes and sizes some of these nebulae are hidden (Dark Matter). Matter spreads among the stars and galaxies in the form of a diffused cloud of interstellar dust or gases mostly consisting of hydrogen that is loaded with very tiny dust particles of solid substances. Stars are created by gravitational collapses of nebulae. Stellar evolution is as follows: birth, youth, maturity, old age, death, then –sometimes- turning to gases again. From the stages in the life of stars we have what’s known as: the proto-star. When an old star explodes, it becomes, depending on its mass; either a red giant or a red super giant. The red giant then becomes a planetary nebula, a white dwarf and then finally the first type of supernova. If, on the other hand, the red super giant becomes the second type of supernova, it either becomes a neutron star or a black hole, all of which depends on the primary mass of the proto-star. There is also what we call pulsars; they are forms of variable stars. They have minute masses and they spread along the outer edges of the observed part of the universe. They emit very high radio pulses but some of them are silent and emit no pulses at all.

These are the celestial bodies we are aware of in the observed part of the lower heaven, yet no astronomer, even now, knows whether these bodies are inhabited by creations of Allah or no. However ayah 29 of Surat Ash-Shura says what can be translated as, “And among His Ayât (proofs, evidences, lessons, signs, etc.) is the creation of the heavens and the earth, and whatever moving (living) creatures He has dispersed in them both. And He is All-Potent over their assembling (i.e. resurrecting them on the Day of Resurrection after their death, and dispersion of their bodies) whenever He wills.” (SuratAsh-Shûra (The Consultation): 29). This ayah alludes to the presence of creation in the heavens. Science only knows little about the universe. Allah tells us in the Noble Qur’an that He created seven heavens, made up of layers one above the other. All the seven heavens and all that they contain belong solely to Allah (SWT).
2. Second: “what’s in the soil”

The Earth’s volume is equal to about one trillion cubic kilometers, has an average density of about 5.52 gm/cm3 and a mass of 6 thousand Million trillion tons. The internal structure of the Earth consists of seven zones:

1) First zone (continental and oceanic crust): the hard crust of earth upon which we live. Its thickness ranges from 5-8 km under the oceans and between 30 to 40 km in the continents.

2) Second zone (lithosphere): the layer under the rigid crust consists mainly of rocks (rock sphere). Its thickness ranges from 60-70 km under the oceans and 80-90 km under the continents.

3) Third zone: the upper part of the earth’s mantle; it is the zone of weakness in the earth known as the asthenosphere (weak sphere). In this zone, rocks are found in a plastic, semi melted and highly dense, viscous form. The thickness of this layer is about 280 km (with a depth of 120-400 km).

4) Fourth zone: the middle part of the earth’s mantle (intermediate sphere). In this layer, rocks are found in a solid, hard condition. This layer has a thickness of about 270 km (with a depth that ranges from 400-670 km).
5) Fifth zone: the lower part of the earth’s mantle. In this layer, rocks are also found in a solid, hard condition. The thickness of this layer is about 2215 km (with a depth that ranges from 670-2885 km from sea level).

6) Sixth zone (Outer Core): the liquid part of the earth’s core, consisting mainly of Iron (90%), Nickel (9%) and a few light elements (1%). All these elements are found in a liquid state. The thickness of this layer is about 2270 km and its depth ranges form 2885-5155 km.

7) Seventh zone (Inner Core): the solid part of the earth’s core. It consists of a spherical mass of iron (90%), nickel (10%) and other elements, such as sulfur, phosphorous, carbon and silicon (1%). The solid core (center of the earth) has a radius of about 1216 km.

The radius of the earth is estimated at about 6371 km, its average circumference is 40042 km and its surface area is approximately 510 million km2. As for the earth’s hydrosphere, it is about 1.4 million km3 covering an area of 362 million km2, leaving only 148 million km2 of land.

More than six billion people live on the earth today; they are all the descendents of Adam and Eve. There are more than one and a half million species of creatures on the earth and in the sea, in addition to the fossils of more than a quarter of a million extinct species. Through the annual rate of discovering new and extinct species (through fossils), scientists believe that the number of different species that have inhabited and/or continue to inhabit the earth may be anything up to five million.

The Earth is estimated to be five billion years old (4,600,000,000 years). The entire universe is estimated to be ten billion years old, whereas the average age of man is about 50 years.

The earth contains many mineral resources, chemical compounds and water and energy resources in addition to plant and animal resources. However, we are unaware of many of Allah’s blessings. These blessings are from and belong solely to Allah; they are the products of His kindness and benevolence.

3. Third: “all that is between them” (the Heavens and Earth)

There are 20 ayahs in the Qur’an that make explicit reference to the existence of the heavens (in their huge dimensions) and the earth (with its comparatively smaller size). All that is between the heavens and earth is a space characterized by both time and space. This space is filled with various substances and energy. In this space, the clouds, angels and other creatures known only to Allah are subjugated to Him. Allah’s orders are sent down to man on earth through this space.

Science shows that the creation of space, time, matter and energy were all completed at the same time as there is (in the known universe) no space without time or time without space. There is also no time and space without matter and energy. Thus matter and energy are present in all celestial bodies, such as the earth, the sun, the solar system and the stars. Allah caused volcanoes to erupt to release the liquid and gaseous layers of the earth. Then water returned to the earth, by the will of Allah, as the water cycle. At the same time, the gases on earth vaporized and mixed with the fumes in the heavens to form a distinct stratum surrounding the earth (lithosphere), distinct from the heavens and earth, named in the Qur’an as the troposphere. This field extends from the sea surface to heights that differ with climatic spheres, ranging from 6 to 17 km, in which more than 66% of the main substance of the whole atmosphere of the earth exists. This region is characterized by a drop in temperature with the increase in altitude. The temperature reaches about -60oC just above the equator. This level is known as the stagnant airspace as atmospheric pressure goes down in it to about 1/10 of the atmospheric pressure above the sea level.

This field which represents the separating boundary between the heavens and the earth (lithosphere) is mainly composed of nitrogen molecules (78.1%), oxygen (21%), argon (0.93%) and carbon dioxide (0.03%). This is in addition to varying amounts of water vapor and traces of methane, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, hydrogen, helium, ozone and some inert gases, like argon. This composition is totally different from that of the matter in between other stars and planets; it is also different from that of the cosmic gases from which the heavens and the earth were first created. All of this demonstrates the miraculous nature of the Noble Qur’an, which informs us of these processes. It is also described in a Hadith which says: “We glorify Allah as numerous as His creations in the heaven, We glorify Allah as numerous as His creations on earth, We glorify Allah as numerous as His creations in between the earth and heavens, We glorify Allah as numerous as His creations in that field which separates between the heavens and earth. All that is in this field belong indisputably only to Allah with no partner, like, wife nor a son”.

4. Fourth: “all that lies beneath the soil”

Qur’anic commentators were puzzled by the phrase “all that lies beneath the soil”. Some explained that it stood for the fact that all forms of existences are owned, created, compelled and dominated by Allah. Others explained that it represented the fact that Allah is sole possessor of all that exists.

The word “thara” in Arabic means “moist soil”. Scientifically, the humus soil (that which contains humus substances or black matter formed due to the presence of organic substances of both plant and animal origin) has a great capacity for retaining water. It is a soil rich in various mineral compounds, such as nitrides and sulfides. It is a soil that is properly aired and it releases its water content easily. Due to all of this, this soil with the underlying zones and layers are extremely rich in living organisms, such as:

1. Microscopic plants or the remains of normal plants such as bacteria, fungi, algae and pollen of all types. Some bacteria act as fixing agents for nitrogen, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, sulfur, iron, manganese or other compounds that enrich the fertility of the soil. Some others break up carbohydrates, cellulose, protein or fatty substances into the organic remains of the soil enriching it with substances that plants need.

2. Various animal life-forms, such as microscopic ones like protozoa (protista), medium-sized ones and the large ones like worms, mollusks, insects, larvae, spiders, some crustaceans, vertebrates and others.

The soil can be sub-divided into three distinguished horizons, which were formed by the weathering processes for the crust. These zones from up to down are:

The upper horizon (the uppermost soil horizon): This zone is the most exposed to weathering and humidity. It can extend from the surface of the earth to the soil rocks or the unexposed rocks. Some organic remains can be traced in this zone but the downward movement of water leaches it of the organic content required by plant life. Its thickness varies from several centimeters to tens of centimeters.
The middle horizon: starting from the end of upper soil horizon and goes down for about a meter. This soil horizon is less exposed to weathering, but the movement of water, from above is able to reach it, enriching it with various chemical compounds that have been leached from the above horizon. That’s why this horizon is the richest, most fertile soil.
The bed rock: is the source of the upper two horizons by they effect of the weathering processes.

The life teeming “beneath the soil” was an unknown fact when the Qur’an was revealed and remained unknown for centuries to follow. Having such signs in Qur’an proves that it is the word of Allah, the Creator. It proves the Prophethood of the Muhammad, the seal of the Prophets, and that he was connected to the revelation, taught by the Creator.

gimakon:
Aob, where did u get this from?

The Quran is not only unique in the way in which it presents its subject matter, but it is also unique in that it is a miracle itself. By the term “miracle,” we mean the performance of a supernatural or extraordinary event which cannot be duplicated by humans. It has been documented that Prophet Muhammad (S), challenged the Arabs to produce a literary work of a similar caliber as the Quran, but they were unable to do so in spite of their well-known eloquence and literary powers. The challenge to reproduce the Quran was presented to the Arabs and mankind in three stages:


1. The Whole Quran

In the Quran, Allah commanded the Prophet (S) to challenge all of creation to create a book of the stature of the Quran:

islam on Allah’s Challenge in the Quran to produce work similar to it

“Say: ‘If all mankind and the jinn would come together to produce the like of this Quran, they could not produce its like even though they exerted all and their strength in aiding one another.’” (Quran 17:88)

2. Ten Chapters

Next, Allah made the challenge ostensibly easier by asking those who denied its divine origin to imitate even ten chapters of the Quran:

islam on Allah’s Challenge in the Quran to produce work similar to it

“Or do they say that he has invented it? Say (to them), ‘Bring ten invented chapters like it, and call (for help) on whomever you can besides God, if you are truthful.” (Quran 11:13)

3. One Chapter

This final challenge was to produce even a single chapter to match what is in the Quran, whose shortest chapter, al-Kawthar, consists of only three verses:

islam on Allah’s Challenge in the Quran to produce work similar to it

“And if you all are in doubt about what I have revealed to My servant, bring a single chapter like it, and call your witnesses besides God if you are truthful.” (Quran 2:23)

These challenges were not just empty words with no one caring to prove them wrong.

Prof. Marshall Johnson who is one of the leading scientists in the USA, and is the head of the Department of Anatomy and Director of the Daniel Institute at the Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia in the USA, was asked to comment on the verses of the Qur’an dealing with embryology. At first he said that the verses of the Qur’an describing the embryological stages cannot be a coincidence. It was probable that Muhammad (pbuh) had a powerful microscope. On being reminded that the Qur’an was revealed 1400 years ago, and microscopes were
invented many centuries after the time of Prophet Muhammad (May Peace, Mercy and Blessing of ALLAH be upon him), Prof. Johnson laughed and admitted that the first microscope invented could not magnify more than 10 times and could not show a clear picture.

Later he said: “I see nothing here in conflict with the concept that Divine intervention was involved when Muhammad (pbuh) recited the Qur’an.” According to Dr. Keith Moore, the modern classification of embryonic evelopment stages which is adopted throughout the world, is not easily comprehensible, since it identifies stages on a numerical basis i.e. stage 1, stage 2, etc. On the other hand, the divisions revealed in the Qur’an are based on distinct and easily identifiable forms or shapes, which the embryo passes through. These are based on different phases of pre-natal development and provide elegant scientific descriptions that are comprehensible and practical.

Embryological stages of human development have also been described in the following verses:

“Was he not a drop of sperm emitted (in lowly form)? Then did he become a clinging clot; then did (Allah) make and fashion (him) in due proportion. and of him He made two sexes, male and female.” [Al-Qur’an 75:37-39]

“Him Who created thee, fashioned thee in due proportion, and gave thee a just bias; in whatever Form He wills, does He put thee together.”
[Al-Qur’an 82:7-8]


EMBRYO PARTLY FORMED AND PARTLY UNFORMED

At the mudghah stage, if an incision is made in the embryo and the internal organ is dissected, it will be seen that most of them are formed while the remaining are not yet completely formed.

According to Prof. Johnson, if we describe the embryo as a complete creation, then we are only describing that part which is already created. If we describe it as an incomplete creation, then we are only describing that part which is not yet created. So, is it a complete creation or an incomplete creation? There is no better description of this stage of embryogenesis than the Qur’anic description, “partly formed and partly unformed”, as in the following verse:

“We created you out of dust, then out of sperm, then out of a leech-like clot, then out of a morsel of flesh, partly formed and partly unformed that We may manifest
(Our Power) to you.” [Al-Qur’an 22:5]

Scientifically we know that at this early stage of development there are some cells which are differentiated and there are some cells that are undifferentiated – some organs are formed and yet others unformed.





SENSE OF HEARING AND SIGHT

The first sense to develop in a developing human embryo is hearing. The foetus can hear sounds after the 24th week. Subsequently, the sense of sight is developed and by the 28th week, the retina becomes sensitive to light.

The Qur'an explains it thus:
“And He gave you (the faculties of) hearing and sight and feeling (and understanding).” [Al-Qur’an 32:9]

“Verily We created man from a drop of mingled sperm, in order to try him: so We gave him (the gifts), of Hearing and Sight.” [Al-Qur’an 76:2]

“It is He Who has created for you (the faculties of) hearing, sight, feeling and understanding: little thanks it is ye give!” [Al-Qur’an 23:78]

In all these verses the sense of hearing is mentioned before that of sight. Thus the Qur’anic description matches perfectly with the discoveries in modern embryology.

They then followed the Qur'anic advice:
“If ye realise this not, ask of those who possess the Message.”
[Al-Qur’an 16:43 & 21:7]
EMBRYOLOGY IN THE QURAN
All the information from the Qur’an and the Hadith concerning embryology so gathered, after being translated into English and presented to Prof. (Dr.) Keith Moore, Professor of Embryology and Chairman of the Department of Anatomy at the University of Toronto, in Canada.


At present he is one of the highest authorities in the field of Embryology. He was asked to give his opinion regarding the material presented to him. After carefully examining it, Dr. Moore said that most of the information concerning embryology mentioned in the Qur’an and the Hadith is in perfect conformity with modern discoveries in the field of embryology and does not conflict with them in any way. He added that there were a few verses however, on whose scientific accuracy he could not comment. He could not say whether the statements were true or false, since he was himself unaware of the information contained therein. There was also no mention of this information in modern writings and studies on embryology.

One such verse is:
“Proclaim! (or Read!) In the name of thy Lord and Cherisher, Who created – Created man, out of a (mere) clot of congealed blood.” [Al-Qur’an 96:1-2]

The Arabic word alaq, besides meaning a congealed clot of blood, also means something that clings, a leech-like substance.

Dr. Keith Moore had no knowledge whether an embryo in the initial stages appears like a leech. To check this out he studied the initial stage of the embryo under a very powerful microscope and compared what he observed with the diagram of a leech. He was astonished at the striking resemblance between the two!

In the same manner, he acquired more information on embryology, that was hitherto not known to him, from the Qur’an. Dr. Keith Moore answered about eighty questions dealing with embryological data mentioned in the Qur’an and Hadith. Noting that the information contained in the Qur’an and Hadith was in full agreement with the latest discoveries in the field of embryology, Prof. Moore said, “If I was asked these questions thirty years ago, I would not have been
able to answer half of them for lack of scientific information”. In 1981, during the Seventh Medical Conference in Dammam, Saudi Arabia, Dr. Moore said, “It has been a great pleasure for me to help clarify statements in the Qur’an about human development.

It is clear to me that these statements must have come to Muhammad from God or Allah, because almost all of this knowledge was not discovered until many centuries later. This proves to me that Muhammad must have been a messenger of God or Allah”.

Dr. Keith Moore had earlier authored the book, ‘The Developing Human’. After acquiring new knowledge from the Qur’an, he wrote, in 1982, the 3rd edition of the same book, ‘The Developing Human’. The book was the recipient of an award for the best medical book written by a single author. This book has been translated into several major languages of the world and is used as a textbook of embryology in the first year of medical studies.

Dr. Joe Leigh Simpson, Chairman of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, at the Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, U.S.A., proclaims: “...these Hadiths, sayings of Muhammad (pbuh), could not have been obtained on the basis of the scientific knowledge that was available at the time of the writer (implying in the 7th century). It follows that not only is there no conflict between genetics and religion (implying Islam) but in fact religion (Islam) may guide science by adding revelation to some of the traditional scientific approaches . . . there exist statements in the Qur’an shown centuries later to be valid which support knowledge in the Qur’an having been derived from God.”

DROP EMITTED FROM BETWEEN THE BACK BONE AND THE RIBS

“Now let man but think from what he is created! He is created from a drop emitted – Proceeding from between the back bone and the ribs.” [Al-Qur’an 86:5-7]

In embryonic stages, the reproductive organs of the male and female, i.e. the testicles and the ovaries, begin their development near the kidney between the spinal column and the eleventh and twelfth ribs. Later they descend; the female gonads (ovaries) stop in the pelvis while the male gonads (testicles) continue their descent before birth to reach the scrotum through the inguinal canal. Even in adulthood after the descent of the reproductive organs, these organs receive their nerve supply and blood supply from the Abdominal Aorta, which is in the area between the backbone (spinal column) and the ribs. The lymphatic drainage and the venous return also go to the same area.

NUTFAH – MINUTE QUANTITY OF LIQUID

The Glorious Qur’an mentions no less than eleven times that the human being is created from nutfah, which means a minute quantity of liquid or a trickle of liquid that remains after emptying a cup. This is mentioned in several verses of the Qur’an including 22:5 and 23:13.1 Science has confirmed in recent times that only one out of an average of three million sperms is required for fertilising the ovum. This means that only 1/3 millionth part or 0.00003% of the quantity of sperms
that are emitted is required for fertilisation. The same is also mentioned in the Qur’an in 16:4, 18:37, 35:11, 36:77, 40:67, 53:46, 75:37, 76:2 and 80:19.



SULALAH – QUINTESSENCE OF LIQUID

“And made his progeny from a quintessence of the nature of a fluid despised.”
[Al-Qur’an 32:8]

The Arabic word sulaalah means quintessence or the best part of a whole. We have come to know now that only one single spermatozoon that penetrates the ovum is required for fertilization, out of the several million produced by man. That one spermatozoon out of several million, is referred to in the Qur’an as sulaalah. We have also come to know now that only one ovum is fertilized out of the tens of thousand produced by the female. That one ovum out of tens of thousand is also refered to in the Qur'an as Sulaalah. This word also means gentle extraction from a fluid. The fluid refers to both male and female germinal fluids containing gametes. Both ovum and sperm are gently extracted from their environments in the process of fertilization.

NUTFATUN AMSHAAJ – MINGLED LIQUIDS

“Verily We created man from a drop of mingled sperm.”
[Al-Qur’an 76:2]

The Arabic word nutfatin amshaajin means mingled liquids. According to some commentators of the Qur’an, mingled liquids refers to the male or female agents or liquids. After mixture of male and female gamete, the zygote still remains nutfah. Mingled liquids can also refer to spermatic fluid that is formed of various secretions that come from various glands.

Therefore, nutfatin amshaaj, i.e. a minute quantity of mingled fluids refers to the male and female gametes (germinal fluids or cells) and part of the surrounding fluids.

SEX DETERMINATION


The sex of a foetus is determined by the nature of the sperm and not of the ovum. The sex of the child, whether female or male, depends on whether the 23rd pair of chromosomes is XX or XY respectively.

Primarily, sex determination occurs at fertilization and depends upon the type of sex chromosome in the sperm that fertilizes an ovum. If it is an ‘X’ bearing sperm that fertilizes the ovum, the foetus is a female and if it is a ‘Y’ bearing sperm then the foetus is a male.
“That He did create in pairs – male and female, from a seed when lodged (in its place).” [Al-Qur’an 53:45-46]

The Arabic word nutfah means a minute quantity of liquid and tumnaa means ejaculated or planted.

Therefore nutfah specifically refers to sperm because it is ejaculated.

The Qur’an says:
“Was he not a drop of sperm emitted (in lowly form)? “Then did he become a clinging clot; then did (Allah) make and fashion (him) in due proportion. “And of him He made two sexes, male and female.” [Al-Qur’an 75:37-39]

Here again it is mentioned that a small quantity (drop) of sperm (indicated by the word nutfatan min maniyyin) which comes from the man is responsible for the sex of the foetus.

Mothers-in-law in the Indian subcontinent, usually prefer having male Grandchildren and often blame their daughters-in-law if the child is not a boy. If only they knew that the determining factor is the nature of the male sperm and not the female ovum! If they were to blame anybody, they should rather blame their sons, not their daughters-in-law, since both the Qur’an and Science hold that it is the male fluid that is responsible for the sex of the child!

FOETUS PROTECTED BY THREE VEILS OF DARKNESS


“He makes you, in the wombs of your mothers, in stages, one after another,
in three veils of darkness.” [Al-Qur’an 39:6]

According to Prof. Keith Moore, these three veils of darkness in the Qur’an refer to:
(i) anterior abdominal wall of the mother
(ii) the uterine wall
(iii) the amnio-chorionic membrane.

EMBRYOLOGICAL STAGES


“Man We did create from a quintessence (of clay); then We placed him as (a drop of) sperm in a place of rest, firmly fixed; then We made the sperm into a clot of congealed blood; then of that clot We made a (foetus) lump; then We made out of that lump bones and clothed the bones with flesh; then We developed out of it another creature. so blessed be Allah, the Best to create!”
[Al-Qur’ an 23:12-14]

In this verse Allah states that man is created from a small quantity of liquid which is placed in a place of rest, firmly fixed (well established or lodged) for which the Arabic word qaraarin makeen is used.


The uterus is well protected from the posterior by the spinal column supported firmly by the back muscles. The embryo is further protected by the amniotic sac containing the amniotic fluid. Thus the foetus has a well protected dwelling place.


This small quantity of fluid is made into alaqah, meaning something which clings. It also means a leech-like substance. Both descriptions are scientifically acceptable as in the very early stages the foetus clings to the wall and also appears to resemble the leech in shape. It also behaves like a leech (blood sucker) and acquires its blood supply from the mother through the placenta.

The third meaning of the word alaqah is a blood clot. During this alaqah stage, which spans the third and fourth week of pregnancy, the blood clots within closed vessels. Hence the embryo acquires the appearance of a blood clot in addition to acquiring the appearance of a leech. Compare the readily available Qur'anic knowledge with Man's struggle with scientific findings:

In 1677, Hamm and Leeuwenhoek were the first scientists to observe human sperm cells (spermatozoa) through a microscope. They thought that a sperm cell contained a miniature human being which grew in the uterus to form a newborn.
This was known as the perforation theory. When scientists discovered that the ovum was bigger than the sperm, it was thought by scientists like De Graf and others that the foetus existed in a miniature form in the ovum. Later, in the 18th century, Maupertuis propagated the theory of biparental inheritance.

The alaqah is transformed into mudghah which means ‘something that is chewed (having teeth marks)’ and also something that is tacky and small which can be put in the mouth like gum. Both these explanations are scientifically correct. Prof. Keith Moore took a piece of plaster seal and made it into the size and shape of the early stage of foetus and chewed it between the teeth to make it into a mudghah.

He compared this with the photographs of the early stage of foetus. The teeth marks resembled the ‘somites’ which is the early formation of the spinal column.
This mudghah is transformed into bones (izâm).

The bones are clothed with intact flesh or muscles (lahm). Then Allah makes it into another creature.

Johnnoah1st:
have never heard dat any miracle happened in quran, pls can some tell me d miracles in quran

You created a topic without series of research.
Have you read the Quran ?
Quran is a miracle of all miracles.

Jesus says in Gospel of John chapter 16 verse 12-14:

"I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth is
come, he will guide you unto all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. He shall glorify me".

Christians says this verse is referring to holly ghost which is wrong. Ask me how did I know that you see the word HE was repeated 5 good times.
The word HE is telling you that the word HE is a masculine Gender not spirit. If jesus is referring to Spirit it will have been IT no HE.
That is:
"I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when IT, the Spirit of truth is
come, IT will guide you unto all truth: for IT shall not speak of ITself; but whatsoever IT shall hear, that shall IT speak: and IT will shew you things to come. IT shall glorify me".

HE SHALL GLORIFY ME:
QURAN which is given to that prophet tells us MORE about Jesus Christ even MORE than the BIBLE. Did you know that the first MIRACLE OF JESUS CHRIST ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE was: John 2:1-11 Jesus turned WATER to WINE

But Quran tells us that:

Jesus (Peace be upon him): His First Miracle.
After the questioning and accusations of the Jews , Mary (Peace be upon her) in obedience to her Lord, spoke nothing and pointed to the baby. The crowd was outraged. They proclaimed: 'What kind of an answer is this! You turn to your child in your defense?!' And they were right. Under normal circumstances and in usual situations this is not a proper behavior of a sane person. But the circumstances were not normal, and the situation was far from usual. It is then that the miracle happened.

They said: [019:028] "O sister of Aaron! Thy father was not a man of evil, nor thy mother a woman unchaste!"

[019:029] But she pointed to the babe. They said: "How can we talk to one who is a child in the cradle?(

He (Peace be upon him) The Baby) said:

'I am a slave of Allah [i.e. created by God and belong to Him], He has given me the Scriptures and made me a Prophet; And He has made me blessed wheresoever I be, and enjoined on me Salat (prayer), and Zakat (giving alms to the poor) as long as I live. And dutiful to my mother (i.e. made me kind and good to my mother) and made me not arrogant, unblest. And peace be upon me the day I was born, and the day I shall be raised alive (i.e. on The Day of Judgment and Resurrection)!' "(Quran 19:28-33)

And this was the first miracle of Jesus son of Mary. Only a baby, he talked to the Jews, asserting his subjugation to his Lord, and describing that this miracle - his talking - is a sign from their Lord - a sign of his prophet hood. He told them of the Scriptures to be given to him from God, and told them that he was ordered to pray and be kind to the poor as long as he lived. He told them that he was blessed by God, and was kind and respectful to his great mother, not arrogant. And that peace is upon him the day his was born, and peace will be upon him the day he will be resurrected on The Day of Judgment and Resurrection, when every person is going to be resurrected and Judged by God according to his/her deeds.

If this would not have happen then the Law of De:22:20-21 would have been Applied.... so you have nothing to refute such a information gived to you, You have no choice left rather accepting the first miracle of the Quran.. HE SPOKE WHEN HE WAS BABY IN CRADLE...

SirWere:
Yes. At least once. One must speak in tongues when he/she receives the holy spirit

You are just deceiving your self.
Did Jesus speaks in tongue?
Is their any statement from Jesus that when you receive Your Holy spirit then automatically you will start speaking in tongue?

3. How many pairs of clean animals did God tell Noah to take into the Ark?

Genesis 6:19 (19)And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee; they shall be male and female. (20) Of fowls after their kind, and of cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the earth after his kind, two of every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive.

Genesis 7:2 Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female.

4. Is the law of Moses useful?
Yes... 2 Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

No... Hebrews 7:18 For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof.

5. What was Jesus instruction for his disciples?

Matthew 28:10 Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me.

John 20:17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.

malvisguy212:
how do you explained this error:
the Quran claims that one night, God took Muhammad to the "al- Aqsa" mosque is in Jerusalem:

Quran 17:1
"Exalted is He who took His Servant by
night from al-Masjid al-Haram to al-
Masjid al-Aqsa, whose surroundings
We have blessed, to show him of Our
signs. Indeed, He is the Hearing, the
Seeing." -
The Muslim army conquered Jerusalem
in 637 AD and the al-Aqsa mosque was
completed in 705 AD. The problem with
the above passage in the Quran is that
Muhammad died in 632 AD, which was 5years before the Muslim army reached
Jerusalem and 73 years before the al-
Aqsa mosque was built.

CONTRADICTION IN THE BIBLE
1. Exodus 33:20 And he said, Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.
Genesis 32:30 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.
Exodus 24:9-10(9) Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel:
(10) And they saw the God of Israel: and there was under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone, and as it were the body of heaven in his clearness.
Exodus 33:11 And the Lord spake unto Moses face to face, as a man speaketh unto his friend. And he turned again into the camp: but his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, departed not out of the tabernacle.

2. Matthew 27:1-5 1 When the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death:
2 And when they had bound him, they led him away, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.
3 Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,
4 Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that.
5 And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself.

Acts 1:16-18 16 Men and brethren, this scripture must needs have been fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost by the mouth of David spake before concerning Judas, which was guide to them that took Jesus.
17 For he was numbered with us, and had obtained part of this ministry.
18 Now this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.

the bible verse you provide is a parable, give us the numbers of people Jesus kill if there is any!!

the Quran not only calls Muslims to submit to Allah, it also commands them to subdue people of other religions until they are in a full state of submission to Islamic rule. This has inspired the aggressive history of Islam and its success in conquering other cultures.

Allah says, because the son of Adam killed his brother in transgression and aggression,

﴿كَتَبْنَا عَلَى بَنِى إِسْرَءِيلَ﴾

(We ordained for the Children of Israel...) meaning, We legislated for them and informed them,

﴿أَنَّهُ مَن قَتَلَ نَفْساً بِغَيْرِ نَفْسٍ أَوْ فَسَادٍ فِى الاٌّرْضِ فَكَأَنَّمَا قَتَلَ النَّاسَ جَمِيعاً وَمَنْ أَحْيَـهَا فَكَأَنَّمَا أَحْيَا النَّاسَ جَمِيعاً﴾

(that if anyone killed a person not in retaliation of murder, or (and) to spread mischief in the land - it would be as if he killed all mankind, and if anyone saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of all mankind.) The Ayah states, whoever kills a soul without justification -- such as in retaliation for murder or for causing mischief on earth -- will be as if he has killed all mankind, because there is no difference between one life and another.

﴿وَمَنْ أَحْيَـهَا﴾

(and if anyone saved a life...) by preventing its blood from being shed and believing in its sanctity, then all people will have been saved from him, so,

﴿فَكَأَنَّمَا أَحْيَا النَّاسَ جَمِيعاً﴾

(it would be as if he saved the life of all mankind.) Al-A`mash and others said that Abu Salih said that Abu Hurayrah said, "I entered on `Uthman when he was under siege in his house and said, `I came to give you my support. Now, it is good to fight (defending you) O Leader of the Faithful!' He said, `O Abu Hurayrah! Does it please you that you kill all people, including me' I said, `No.' He said, `If you kill one man, it is as if you killed all people. Therefore, go back with my permission for you to leave. May you receive your reward and be saved from burden.' So I went back and did not fight.''' `Ali bin Abi Talhah reported that Ibn `Abbas said, "It is as Allah has stated,

﴿مَن قَتَلَ نَفْساً بِغَيْرِ نَفْسٍ أَوْ فَسَادٍ فِى الاٌّرْضِ فَكَأَنَّمَا قَتَلَ النَّاسَ جَمِيعاً وَمَنْ أَحْيَـهَا فَكَأَنَّمَا أَحْيَا النَّاسَ جَمِيعاً﴾

(if anyone killed a person not in retaliation of murder, or (and) to spread mischief in the land - it would be as if he killed all mankind, and if anyone saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of all mankind.) Saving life in this case occurs by not killing a soul that Allah has forbidden. So this is the meaning of saving the life of all mankind, for whoever forbids killing a soul without justification, the lives of all people will be saved from him.'' Similar was said by Mujahid;

﴿وَمَنْ أَحْيَـهَا﴾

(And if anyone saved a life...) means, he refrains from killing a soul. Al-`Awfi reported that Ibn `Abbas said that Allah's statement,

﴿فَكَأَنَّمَا قَتَلَ النَّاسَ جَمِيعاً﴾

(it would be as if he killed all mankind. .) means, "Whoever kills one soul that Allah has forbidden killing, is just like he who kills all mankind.'' Sa`id bin Jubayr said, "He who allows himself to shed the blood of a Muslim, is like he who allows shedding the blood of all people. He who forbids shedding the blood of one Muslim, is like he who forbids shedding the blood of all people.'' In addition, Ibn Jurayj said that Al-A`raj said that Mujahid commented on the Ayah,

﴿فَكَأَنَّمَا قَتَلَ النَّاسَ جَمِيعاً﴾

(it would be as if he killed all mankind,) "He who kills a believing soul intentionally, Allah makes the Fire of Hell his abode, He will become angry with him, and curse him, and has prepared a tremendous punishment for him, equal to if he had killed all people, his punishment will still be the same.'' Ibn Jurayj said that Mujahid said that the Ayah,

﴿وَمَنْ أَحْيَـهَا فَكَأَنَّمَا أَحْيَا النَّاسَ جَمِيعاً﴾

(and if anyone saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of all mankind.) means, "He who does not kill anyone, then the lives of people are safe from him.''

[size=14pt] I call on Islam, coran to be reform. Remove all of the coranic Verses which Encourage Killing, terrorism, beheading, eg. Kill non-Islam People and you will enter Paradise and you will have 24 hours Heterosexual acts. Remove child abuse, child rape, Wife beating, Women abuse , female Clit.oris cutting. Remove All of Coran verse which allowed Muslims to beat their Wives, To have animals Sex 4 by 1 legal animals sex.

Remove all of Coran verse which child molest servant of Allah said, Islam will dominate the world by sexual over Reproduction rate. All of Muslims can worship their idol allah without killing Kaffir/infidels , without child rape, women abuse, animal sex, Beheading, and never try to dominate the world by means or sword or by means of Animal reproduction rate, and stay peacefully with all other religions on earth, never try to destroy others Religions such as Buddhist, Hindus, Jews , Christians etc....Never Insult others Religion in your mosque or In your Terrorist Camp.

If you can do this, Then the world will accept Islam is the awesome Religion of peace ....All of coran verses which encourage All kinds of criminals in the name of Satan( Allah) must be deleted or eradicated.

But Islam coran is based on killing, Murdering , child rape, women abuse, beheading, looting, animals sex...these such extreme criminals are the main stream of Islam coran . Don't Muslims see these verses? How do they keep blind eyes on them?

Oh ! without these Mohammed Favorite criminals are the main stream of Islam quran....Islam coran Allah Can not survive without these criminals....I would like to ask you Muslims about one question.

If Allah is Almighty, let him come to earth and kill all Kaffirs/infidels by himself, why didn't he kill kaffirs by himself and using Muslims to kill Kaffirs? because the true God will never command you to kill people in order to spread religion. The God of the bible is Indeed the Almighty and according to his Son Jesus Christ. His "WORD" will spread all over the earth by using "Power of Love" , not the "Power of Hatred" Killings which is the only Method of Satan Himself , throught ISLAM. Thank you. [/size]

YOU CREATED SIX PARAGRAPH TOPIC ABOUT ISLAM BUT YOU NEVER STATE ANY QUOTATION AL-QURAN THAT SAYS KILL INNOCENT SOUL.

They Balance there spending !!!
"The true servants of Allah pass their nights in worshipping and remembering Him as much as they can"
Allah's slave replies peacefully
"Nor they kill whom Allah has given sanctity & they do not fornicate"
"They Balance their spending !!!"
"They walk on the earth with dignity, serenity and humility, not with arrogance and pride

In these verses attention is being drawn to the two patterns of character and life: first of those who had accepted the Message of the Holy Prophet and were following it, and the second of those who persisted in the ways of ignorance.
The prominent characteristics of the true Believers are:
They walk on the earth with dignity, serenity and humility, not with arrogance and pride. (“Walking humbly” does not mean walking like a weak or sick person, nor does it imply the gait of a hypocrite who walks ostentatiously to show humility or fear of God. According to Traditions, the Holy Prophet himself used to walk with firm, quick steps.)
If the ignorant people insult them with bad words, they do not respond likewise, but they forgive and overlook, and say nothing but good words. (This is what the Messenger of Allah did: the more ignorant the people, the more patient he would be.)
The true servants of the “Merciful” do not believe in “vengeance”, though they may have to deal with ignorant people who behave rudely and insolently towards them. If they happen to come across such people, they wish them peace and turn away. (The same has been expressed in Surah AI-Qasas: 55, thus:

Yes, islam has come to the end of its growth. All allahh's strategies have been rendered ineffective by today's realities.

ISLAM GROWTH STRATEGIES:

STRATEGY 1 (GROWTH BY COMPULSION).

Muhammad came forcing people to accept islam through terrorism. He went to places waging wars against the people, beheading as many as refused to accept islam, yet islamists say islam is a religion of peace. What an irony. 99% of today's muslims are a product of coersion experienced by their forefathers.

The reason muslims are in majority in Northern Nigeria is a result of islamic war waged against the people by Utmar Dan Fodio. People accepted islam rather than dying. Now, it is these same muslims who are a product of islamic war that are saying islam is a religion of peace. What a lie from the pit of hell.

That growth system is no more working in today's world. Governments the world over are battle ready to combat terrorism. This has stalled islam's growth by compulsion, which used to be the method that brought the highest growth.

STRATEGY 2 (MULTIPLE MARRIAGE AND PRODUCTION OF NUMEROUS CHILDREN).

It was a deliberate strategy for islamic growth that allahh permitted muslims to marry as many as four wives and placed no limit to their children. He even permitted exchange of old wives for new ones, so that the new ones will take over children production from the old ones.

But thanks to the current day's economic realities that are not favourable to growth by birth strategy.

With those strategies rendered ineffective by the current realities plus the massive evangelization by the Christians with signs and wonders, islam has come to the end of its growth. When something is no more growing it will begin to die.

﴿لاَ إِكْرَاهَ فِى الدِّينِ﴾

(There is no compulsion in religion), meaning, "Do not force anyone to become Muslim, for Islam is plain and clear, and its proofs and evidence are plain and clear. Therefore, there is no need to force anyone to embrace Islam. Rather, whoever Allah directs to Islam, opens his heart for it and enlightens his mind, will embrace Islam with certainty. Whoever Allah blinds his heart and seals his hearing and sight, then he will not benefit from being forced to embrace Islam.''

﴿لاَ إِكْرَاهَ فِى الدِّينِ قَد تَّبَيَّنَ الرُّشْدُ مِنَ الْغَيِّ﴾

(2nd ed., 1971) Paragraph 7
Yet the King James Version has grave defects. By the middle of the nineteenth century, the development of Biblical studies and the discovery of many manuscripts more ancient than those upon which the King James Version was based, made it manifest that these defects are so many and so serious as to call for revision of the English translation. The task was undertaken, by authority of the Church of England, in 1870. The English Revised Version of the Bible was published in 1881-1885; and the American Standard Version, its variant embodying the preferences of the American scholars associated in the work, was published in 1901.

HA CHRISTIANS WHY ARE YOU ABUSING THE TRUE MEN OF THE PAST (SOLOMON AND DAVID) why did you (Christian) place too much reliance on your inconsistent and continuous revised book which you claim to be the word of God

Jeremiah 8:8(KJV) How do ye say, We are wise, and the law of the Lord is with us? Lo, certainly in vain made he it; the pen of the scribes is in vain.
This verse is telling you that your Holy Book is corrupt.
Please dont trust your book.
Solomon and his father were true men of God.
O.K i am challenging all christian since you know that Solomon and David were Idolater why did you name your children David, and Solomon?

(Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:101)

وَاتَّبَعُوا مَا تَتْلُو الشَّيَاطِينُ عَلَى مُلْكِ سُلَيْمَانَ وَمَا كَفَرَ سُلَيْمَانُ وَلَكِنَّ الشَّيَاطِينَ كَفَرُوا يُعَلِّمُونَ النَّاسَ السِّحْرَ وَمَا أُنزِلَ عَلَى الْمَلَكَيْنِ بِبَابِلَ هَارُوتَ وَمَارُوتَ وَمَا يُعَلِّمَانِ مِنْ أَحَدٍ حَتَّى يَقُولاَ إِنَّمَا نَحْنُ فِتْنَةٌ فَلاَ تَكْفُرْ فَيَتَعَلَّمُونَ مِنْهُمَا مَا يُفَرِّقُونَ بِهِ بَيْنَ الْمَرْءِ وَزَوْجِهِ وَمَا هُمْ بِضَارِّينَ بِهِ مِنْ أَحَدٍ إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ وَيَتَعَلَّمُونَ مَا يَضُرُّهُمْ وَلاَ يَنفَعُهُمْ وَلَقَدْ عَلِمُوا لَمَنْ اشْتَرَاهُ مَا لَهُ فِي الآخِرَةِ مِنْ خَلاَقٍ وَلَبِئْسَ مَا شَرَوْا بِهِ أَنفُسَهُمْ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ

“They followed what the Shayatin (devils) gave out (falsely of the magic) in the lifetime of Suleiman. Suleiman did not disbelieve, but the Shayatin disbelieved, teaching men magic and such things that came down at Babylon to the two angels, Harut and Marut, but neither of these two (angels) taught anyone (such things) till they had said, “We are for trial, so disbelieve not (by learning this magic from us).” And from these (angels) people learn that by which they cause separation between man and his wife, but they could not thus harm anyone except by Allah’s leave. And they learn that which harms them and profits them not. And indeed they knew that the buyers of it (magic) would have no share in the Hereafter. And how bad indeed was that for which they sold their own selves, if they but knew.”

(Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:102)

What famous non-Muslims said about Islam and Prophet Muhammad PBUH

Napoleon Bonaparte

I hope the time is not far off when I shall be able to unite all the wise and educated men of all the countries and establish a uniform regime based on the principles of Quran which alone are true and which alone can lead men to happiness.



Sir George Bernard Shaw

I have always held the religion of Muhammad in high estimation because of its wonderful vitality. It is the only religion which appears to me to possess that assimilating capacity to the changing phase of existence which can make itself appeal to every age. I have studied him - the wonderful man and in my opinion far from being an anti-Christ, he must be called the Saviour of Humanity.

I believe that if a man like him were to assume the dictatorship of the modern world he would succeed in solving its problems in a way that would bring it the much needed peace and happiness: I have prophesied about the faith of Muhammad that it would be acceptable to the Europe of tomorrow as it is beginning to be acceptable to the Europe of today.



H.G. Wells

The Islamic teachings have left great traditions for equitable and gentle dealings and behaviour, and inspire people with nobility and tolerance. These are human teachings of the highest order and at the same time practicable. These teachings brought into existence a society in which hard-heartedness and collective oppression and injustice were the least as compared with all other societies preceding it… Islam is replete with gentleness, courtesy, and fraternity.



Phillip Hitti

During all the first part of the Middle Ages, no other people made as important a contribution to human progress as did the Arabs, if we take this term to mean all those whose mother-tongue was Arabic, and not merely those living in the Arabian peninsula. For centuries, Arabic was the language of learning, culture and intellectual progress for the whole of the civilized world with the exception of the Far East. From the 9th to the 12th century there were more philosophical, medical, historical, religious, astronomical and geographical works written in Arabic than in any other human tongue.



R. Bosworth Smith

He was Caesar and Pope in one; but he was Pope without Pope’s pretensions, Caesar without the legions of Caesar: without a standing army, without a bodyguard, without a palace, without a fixed revenue; if ever any man had the right to say that he ruled by the right divine, it was Mohammed, for he had all the power without its instruments and without its supports. He cared not for the dressings of power. The simplicity of his private life was in keeping with his public life.



Sarojini Naidu

It was the first religion that preached and practised democracy; for, in the mosque, when the call for prayer is sounded and worshippers are gathered together, the democracy of Islam is embodied five times a day when the peasant and king kneel side by side and proclaim: ‘God Alone is Great’



Dr. William Draper

Four years after the death of Justinian, A.D. 569, was born in Mecca, in Arabia, the man who, of all men, has exercised the greatest influence upon the human race… To be the religious head of many empires, to guide the daily life of one-third of the human race, may perhaps justify the title of a Messenger of God.



Thomas Carlyle

The lies (Western slander) which well-meaning zeal has heaped round this man (Muhammad) are disgraceful to ourselves only.

A silent great soul, one of that who cannot but be earnest. He was to kindle the world, the world’s Maker had ordered so.



A. S. Tritton

The picture of the Muslim soldier advancing with a sword in one hand and the Qur’an in the other is quite false.



De Lacy O’Leary

History makes it clear, however, that the legend of fanatical Muslims sweeping through the world and forcing Islam at the point of sword upon conquered races is one of the most fantastically absurd myths that historians have ever repeated.



Gibbon

The good sense of Muhammad despised the pomp of royalty. The Apostle of God submitted to the menial offices of the family; he kindled the fire; swept the floor; milked the ewes; and mended with his own hands his shoes and garments. Disdaining the penance and merit of a hermit, he observed without effort of vanity the abstemious diet of an Arab.



Edward Gibbon and Simon Oakley

The greatest success of Mohammad’s life was effected by sheer moral force.



Edward Montet

Islam is a religion that is essentially rationalistic in the widest sense of this term considered etymologically and historically… the teachings of the Prophet, the Qur’an has invariably kept its place as the fundamental starting point, and the dogma of unity of God has always been proclaimed therein with a grandeur a majesty, an invariable purity and with a note of sure conviction, which it is hard to find surpassed outside the pale of Islam… A creed so precise, so stripped of all theological complexities and consequently so accessible to the ordinary understanding might be expected to possess and does indeed possess a marvellous power of winning its way into the consciences of men.



Mahatma Gandhi

I wanted to know the best of the life of one who holds today an undisputed sway over the hearts of millions of mankind… I became more than ever convinced that it was not the sword that won a place for Islam in those days in the scheme of life. It was the rigid simplicity, the utter self-effacement of the Prophet the scrupulous regard for pledges, his intense devotion to his friends and followers, his intrepidity, his fearlessness, his absolute trust in God and in his own mission. These and not the sword carried everything before them and surmounted every obstacle. When I closed the second volume (of the Prophet’s biography), I was sorry there was not more for me to read of that great life.



Alphonse de LaMartaine

If greatness of purpose, smallness of means, and astonishing results are the three criteria of a human genius, who could dare compare any great man in history with Muhammad? The most famous men created arms, laws, and empires only. They founded, if anything at all, no more than material powers which often crumbled away before their eyes. This man moved not only armies, legislations, empires, peoples, dynasties, but millions of men in one-third of the then inhabited world; and more than that, he moved the altars, the gods, the religions, the ideas, the beliefs and the souls.



Michael Hart

My choice of Muhammad to lead the list of the world’s most influential persons may surprise some readers and may be questioned by others, but he was the only man in history who was supremely successful on both the secular and religious level.

…It is probable that the relative influence of Muhammad on Islam has been larger than the combined influence of Jesus Christ and St. Paul on Christianity. .

..It is this unparalleled combination of secular and religious influence which I feel entitles Muhammad to be considered the most influential single figure in human history.



Rodwell

Mohammad’s career is a wonderful instance of the force and life that resides in him who possesses an intense faith in God and in the unseen world. He will always be regarded as one of those who have had that influence over the faith, morals and whole earthly life of their fellow men, which none but a really great man ever did, or can exercise; and whose efforts to propagate a great verity will prosper.



W. Montgomery Watt

His readiness to undergo persecution for his beliefs, the high moral character of the men who believed in him and looked up to him as a leader, and the greatness of his ultimate achievement - all argue his fundamental integrity. To suppose Muhammad an impostor raises more problems that it solves. Moreover, none of the great figures of history is so poorly appreciated in the West as Muhammad…

Thus, not merely must we credit Muhammad with essential honesty and integrity of purpose, if we are to understand him at all; if we are to correct the errors we have inherited from the past, we must not forget the conclusive proof is a much stricter requirement than a show of plausibility, and in a matter such as this only to be attained with difficulty.



D. G. Hogarth in ‘Arabia’

Serious or trivial, his daily behaviour has instituted a canon which millions observe this day with conscious memory. No one regarded by any section of the human race as Perfect Man has ever been imitated so minutely.The conduct of the founder of Christianity has not governed the ordinary life of his followers. Moreover, no founder of a religion has left on so solitary an eminence as the Muslim apostle.



Washington Irving

He was sober and abstemious in his diet and a rigorous observer of fasts. He indulged in no magnificence of apparel, the ostentation of a petty mind; neither was his simplicity in dress affected but a result of real disregard for distinction from so trivial a source.

In his private dealings he was just. He treated friends and strangers, the rich and poor, the powerful and weak, with equity, and was beloved by the common people for the affability with which he received them, and listened to their complaints.

His military triumphs awakened no pride nor vain glory, as they would have done had they been effected for selfish purposes. In the time of his greatest power he maintained the same simplicity of manners and appearance as in the days of his adversity. So far from affecting a regal state, he was displeased if, on entering a room, any unusual testimonials of respect were shown to him. If he aimed at a universal dominion, it was the dominion of faith; as to the temporal rule which grew up in his hands, as he used it without ostentation, so he took no step to perpetuate it in his family.



James Michener

No other religion in history spread so rapidly as Islam. The West has widely believed that this surge of religion was made possible by the sword. But no modern scholar accepts this idea, and the Qur’an is explicit in the support of the freedom of conscience.

Jesus said, "Touch me and see, FOR A SPIRIT DOES NOT have flesh and bones AS YOU SEE I HAVE," (Luke 24:39)
Meaning that he(jesus) does not die and he never resurected

Jesus says he has FLESH AND BONES.

قَوْلِهِمْ إِنَّا قَتَلْنَا الْمَسِيحَ عِيسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ رَسُولَ اللّهِ وَمَا قَتَلُوهُ وَمَا صَلَبُوهُ وَلَـكِن شُبِّهَ لَهُمْ وَإِنَّ الَّذِينَ اخْتَلَفُواْ فِيهِ لَفِي شَكٍّ مِّنْهُ مَا لَهُم بِهِ مِنْ عِلْمٍ إِلاَّ اتِّبَاعَ الظَّنِّ وَمَا قَتَلُوهُ يَقِينًا {Quran 4 vs 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:-

Matthew 26-56 But all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples forsook him, and fled.
Meaning that none of the disciple have the exact knowledge of what happen.

Richirich713:
If jesus was not the true God, he should have not accepted worship or being called God.

Please think deeply how can you use the word Begotten to the creator of the universe.
