Christianity EtcRe: What Is The Best Way To Explain Trinity Without Limitations? by Explore2xmore: 6:30pm On Sep 12, 2024
@Antichristian I ponder what you gain by apparently always questioning the christians anout their faith?

Is this the best way you can worship Allah that you have time to engage those who feign blindness, deafness and reasoning to reject the truth?

In any case using analogies to explain the concept of the Trinity has proven to be a futile endeavor.

Exodus 15:11 states Who among the gods is like you, Lord? Who is like you—majestic in holiness, awesome in glory, working wonders?

Isaiah 40:18 asks rhetorically, To whom will you compare God? What image will you compare him to?

It often appears that Christians ignore the theological implications of these verses which suggest that God cannot be confined to human understanding or categories.

Sadly they don't understand what is said in John emphasising that God must be worshipped in sincerity.

Allah's omnipotence (Al-Qadir) refers to Allah being all-powerful. He has absolute and unlimited power over all things. He is capable of doing anything that is in line with His will. Indeed, Allah is over all things competent.(Quran 2:20)

Allah's omnipresence (Al-Hadir) refers to Allah's presence everywhere, though not in a physical sense. His presence is not confined to any specific location. Instead, Allah’s knowledge, awareness, and authority encompass the entire universe. This concept assures Muslims that they are never alone, as Allah is always with them, aware of their actions and thoughts.

"And He is with you wherever you are. And Allah, of what you do, is Seeing." (Quran 57:4)

Allah's Omniscience ; Al-‘Alim, Allah is all-knowing, possessing complete and perfect knowledge of everything, past, present, and future. His knowledge is not limited by time or space. Allah knows what is hidden and what is apparent, what has happened, what is happening, and what will happen. He is aware of the innermost thoughts and secrets of every individual.

"And with Him are the keys of the unseen; none knows them except Him. And He knows what is on the land and in the sea. Not a leaf falls but that He knows it." (Quran 6:59)

These attributes highlight Allah’s supreme and absolute nature in Islamic belief, portraying Him as the ultimate authority and sustainer of all existence.

MrPRevailer:
TRINITY is not a myth because you are not a myth.
To deny Trinity is to deny your entire existence or perhaps mere ignorance.

Don't forget that Allah
1) Misinterpreted Trinity by infering to it as God taking a wife to have a son.
2) erroneously claimed that Christian's Trinity is God the Father, the Son and Mary.
Even the most heretic Christians, Roman Catholics, JW, Mormons do not believe this.

1) Is definitely ignorance.
2) is either Ignorance or MISCHIEF. Nor hard for a god that calls himself the best of deceivers and kept Jews and Christians deceived for 600 years to believe Jesus was Crucified.
Sorry for your thinking.

Allah does not define the Trinity in explicit terms within the Quran, but rather critiques its implications through various verses aimed at maintaining monotheistic principles.

As you all are won't to do after explaining the meaning of Quran 19:71-72 in its context you bring another poorly thought out one.

Say, "I am not something original among the messengers, nor do I know what will be done with me or with you. I only follow what is revealed to me, and I am not but a clear warner." (Qur'an 46:9)


In this verse, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) is emphasizing his role as a messenger of Allah and clarifying that he is not unique among the messengers; previous prophets who spoke about monotheism . He humbly states that he does not have knowledge of the unseen or what will happen in the future to himself or to others. Instead, he follows and conveys only what is revealed to him by Allah.

It is well established that these discussion are ignorant sinful jests. Not withstanding let the verses be appropriately understood.

In Surah Maryam from verses 68-72, Allah mentions the fate of different groups of people on the Day of Judgment. Here is the explanation of these verses:

But by your Lord, We will surely gather them and the devils; then We will bring them to be present around Hell upon their knees

Then We will surely extract from every sect/group those of them who were worst against the Most Merciful in insolence.

Then, surely it is We who are most knowing of those most worthy of burning therein.

And there is none of you except he will come to it. This is upon your Lord an inevitability decreed. (Everybody will pass through judgement; some swiftly and others not swiftly hence the hadith about walking over the bridge over hell)

Then We will save those who feared Allah and leave the wrongdoers within it, on their knees.


This is absolutely perfect justice unlike the fairy tale most people like to believe. The justice and fairness of Allah at the end is absolute hence the various degrees of enjoyment in paradise and various degrees of punishment in hell.

Ohyoudidnt:
Indeed Jesus was not a child but is repeated referred to as son of God. How different is a son of God from a child of God?

Abraham who was performing the sacrifice is not classified as a child but the father.

Prayer and complaining can coexist within our relationship with God. We may start with a complaint, but ultimately turn to prayer for strength, guidance, and hope. From a desire against something to a desire for something comes the prayer.



Didn't you say



Is there reference to the Gospel in the Galatians and are the two not part of the Biblical scripture? Seems you forgot.

Jesus didn't die for mankind but this is said of him.

Jesus is also said to be God who is reported to say he so loved the world that he gave his 'only begotten son' that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. This is in line with John 3:16.

The sacrifice of Jesus on the cross is seen as an expression of God’s love and mercy towards humanity. See Matthew 16:21, Mark 8:31etc.
Did Paul not say in 1 Corinthians 15:14-17 that
And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith?

Was this statement of Paul not in reference to the Gospel?

The point again is as recorded by the scripture and Gospel; if Jesus knew he was to suffer many things including death why then did he pray against it and attempt to have the disciples guard against his capture to fulfilling this?

Does it mean that Jesus the son of God did not fully submit to the will of God?

I end my submissions.
Indeed it is tiresome discussing with these folk especially those that claim an awareness beyond religion.

You are very much correct as prayer is a powerful tool for expressing our grievances and frustrations to a higher power. When we turn to prayer as a complaint, we are acknowledging our feelings of discontent and seeking comfort and resolution from the divine.

Most Christians view Jesus's crucifixion as the ultimate sacrifice for humanity. More so Hebrew 7:27 reads unlike the other high priests, he does not need to offer sacrifices day after day, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people. He sacrificed for their sins once for all when he offered himself.

Yet Jesus said in Matthew 26:39...... Father, if it’s possible, let this cup ⌞of suffering⌟ be taken away from me. But let your will be done rather than mine.

Did Jesus not know this was how it will play out? Did the script authors feel they can turn on and off his willingness without care?

In any case the OP is simply asking if Jesus Wanted To Be Crucified, And Why?

It seems this will be in obedience to God the father who is also Jesus as said by their majority.

Come to think of it; can we compare this to the sacrifice of Abraham though not as a means to salvation of his first son as he had pledged?

I have not come across Abraham's initial planned first child sacrifice complaining. Is there a case of Abraham's child being more submissive than the Biblical Jesus?

Is it that Abraham and his first child had a less human side than the allegedly divine and human Jesus?

Shaik Abdullah, in his book called ‘Biography of the Prophet’ detailed how the ishmaelites came as settlers in the land originally owned and occupied by the QUATANS (Englicised as JOKTAN)

Settlership is neither ownership nor aborigines-hip. The geography of how book of Jasher (which is more detailed than Genesis) did not record the sojourn of Abraham in the land of Arabs.

Meanwhile, Abraham was originally from the land of UR in the present day Iraq. ‘The land of Iraq’ (Mesopotamia) is what most people are mistaking for ‘Land of Arab’.

The Iraqis aren’t Arabs but Medes (old historical name) while the Iranians are Persians.

Kindly do a thorough research and establish the very fundamental.
The roots of the Arab people go back much further than late biblical references. They are descended from Eber through Joktan, one of Eber’s sons. From Joktan’s descendants eventually came the nomadic Arabs who later inhabited the Arabian Peninsula. This genealogical connection is acknowledged by Islamic historians themselves, who refer to the Arabs as “beni Qatan,” meaning “sons of Joktan.

Ishmael, another son of Abraham through his wife Hagar, also played a significant role in the origin of the Arab people.

Ishmael went on to father a lineage of desert people who joined with those already existing in the Arabian Peninsula to form what would later be known as Arabs.

Iraqis are Arabs. They are a diverse population with various ethnic groups, including Iraqi Arabs, Iraqi Kurds, Iraqi Turkmen, Yazidis, Assyrians, Mandaeans, Armenians, and Marsh Arabs. The majority of Iraqis are Iraqi Arabs, making them the largest ethnic group in the country.

Studies on the genetics of the Iraqi people indicate that there are no significant differences in Y-DNA variation among Iraqi Mesopotamian Arabs, Assyrians, or Kurds. Modern genetic research suggests that Iraqi Arabs and Kurds are distantly related but that Iraqi Mesopotamian Arabs are more genetically similar to Iraqi-Assyrians than they are to Iraqi Kurds.

“Sometimes it is “revealed” like the ringing of a bell, this is the hardest of all, and then it passes off after I have grasped what is inspired. Sometimes the Angel comes in the form of a man and talks to me and I grasp whatever he says.” (Al-Bukhari Book 1, Hadith 2)

And (it is) a Qur’an which We have divided (into parts), in order that you might recite it to men at intervals. And We have revealed it by stages”. Q17:106.

“And those who disbelieved say: “Why is the Qur’an not revealed unto him all at once?” Thus (it is sent down in parts), that We may strengthen your heart thereby. And We have revealed it unto you gradually, in stages” Q25:32.

1. “By the star when it goes down (or vanishes)

2. Your companion (Muhammad) has neither gone astray nor has erred.

3. Nor does he speak of (his own) desire.

4. It is only a Revelation revealed.

5. He has been taught (this Qur’aan) by one mighty in power [Jibreel (Gabriel)].”

[Q53:1-5]


“I was sitting beside the Prophet PBUH when he suddenly widens his eyes in surprise, then he looks down and stare intently at the ground and his keen gaze makes me feel as if his eyes could touch the ground. Afterwards, the Prophet PBUH said: Jibril came to me and commanded me (by the command of Allah) to place this verse in this surah.

Ok! Let me school you a bit. Arabic writing was far from perfected during the time of Muhammad, which is why there was no such thing as a written Arabic book (Any reference to an Arabic kitab, the word for “book,” was actually an oral text that was handed down through poets and reciters. It was not a written book). When initially writing the text of the Quran, letters and vowel markings were still being standardized, which led to confusion. For these reasons, what the scribes wrote were memory aids for the oral text. This is actually a fairly uncontroversial fact even among Muslim Quran scholars.

The text of the Quran was fluid during the time of Muhammad. He would recite the same verse multiple ways, saying he could do so up to seven ways. If at any point a text needed to be canceled, it could simply be abrogated and replaced with another text.

Since the text of the Quran was not seen as a written text, this caused little problem: All that was required was to stop reciting certain verses and to “forget” what had been revealed.

Christianity EtcRe: Prophethood in doubt: Irreconcilable Accounts Of Mohammed's Life by Explore2xmore: 8:18pm On May 03, 2024
Akell:
As Muslims know that it was a long time after Muhammad died before anything substantial was written about his life, but people did not cease talking about him.

For over two hundred years, stories about the Islamic 'prophet' were passed orally from person to person, and among the true accounts proliferated many fabrications. By the time a systematic effort was made to sort through them, over five hundred thousand (500,000) accounts of Muhammad’s life were in popular circulation, and it is commonly estimated that the vast majority of them were false.

HOW CAN WE KNOW WHICH ACCOUNTS OF MUHAMMAD’S LIFE ARE TRUSTWORTHY?

Let's assume the classical Islamic method for assessing the authenticity of hadith. In the field of uloom al-hadith, translated “the science of Muhammad’s sayings,” Muslim scholars grade individual accounts of Muhammad’s life based on criteria such as how well-known an account was and who the people relaying it were. The most trustworthy hadith are ultimately graded sahih, which means “true” or “authentic,” whereas the weakest hadith are labelled daeef (“weak”) or even maudu (“fabricated”).

Imam Bukhari and his student Imam Muslim were two highly respected scholars in the third century after Muhammad, and they collected only those hadith which they considered sahih and beyond dispute. Most Muslims consider their collections above reproach. In using only the hadith that they approved, Muslims were deluded to see Muhammad was the noble and peaceful man that they've always been taught, and that there were no problematic accounts in his life.
But this isn't the case. Problematic accounts existed even amid the sahih collections.

If you ask imams to resolve these problematic accounts found in the sahih, and also search online, you'll see how other Muslims responded to the criticisms. What I learned was that many were willing to accuse even the sahih collections of containing fabricated accounts, finding ways to dismiss those accounts that were considered authentic by the great Muslim scholars of old.

It was then I realized they were essentially finding ways to pick and choose from the ancient records which accounts were reliable and which were not, creating a Muhammad that they felt comfortable with.

If you want to know who Muhammad really was and whether you should follow him as your prophet, not to create a Muhammad in your mind that was worth following. I suggest you reconsider your approach and study Muhammad using the historical method instead of uloom al-hadith.

THE HISTORICAL METHOD

What were the earliest accounts written about Muhammad, and how soon were they written?

Here, you'll discover some shocking facts about early Islam. First, people were not writing books in Arabic during Muhammad’s time. The first Arabic book to have been written was the Quran, and even that was turned into a written book only after Muhammad died. There was no such thing as written Arabic literature, only oral. This is because, second, people were still figuring out how to write Arabic. Arabic script was far from standardized, having been invented only a century or two before Muhammad’s time. For these reasons and others, third, no one wrote a biography of Muhammad’s life until about 140 years after Muhammad died. By that time, there were certainly no eyewitnesses of Muhammad’s life, and people were generations removed from the events they discussed. Could we trust such an account to be an unfiltered and accurate depiction of Muhammad?

The first biography, Sirat Rasul Allah, was written by a man named Ibn Ishaq, but the book itself has actually been lost. Ibn Ishaq taught a man named al-Bakkai, who made his own edition of Ibn Ishaq’s book, and al-Bakkai taught a man named Ibn Hisham, who edited al-Bakkai’s edition, and it is this edition that we have today. Why did these men each make their own editions? Ibn Hisham tells us in his introductory remarks: “Things which it is disgraceful to discuss, matters which would distress certain people, and such reports as al-Bakkai told me he could not accept as trustworthy—all these things I have omitted.”1 In other words, the earliest biography of Muhammad’s life was reputed to contain fabrications, disgraceful material, and distressing facts.2 What we have today has been filtered many times, both for fabrications and for difficult truths.

It is because of such intentional editing that historians do not consider late accounts as trustworthy as early accounts, all else being equal. The earlier accounts have not been as filtered, and therefore are more likely to be true. Also, people are more prone to forget information over time, especially information that does not fit with the narrative at large. When it comes to the records of Muhammad’s life, we simply do not have such early or unfiltered data. Everything has been filtered through multiple generations.

Even though the earliest biography went through layers of filtering, it still contains shocking material. Some of them are listed here:

Muhammad personally oversaw the beheadings of up to nine hundred men on a single day, digging trenches in the marketplaces so that their corpses could fall into mass graves upon being decapitated.3

He ordered the assassination of an old man who had composed poetry complaining about Muhammad.4

A woman lamented the old man’s death in poetry, so Muhammad ordered her assassination, and her blood splattered on her children as she breastfed.5

Muhammad ordered the torture of a city treasurer to extract the location of the money, so his men kindled a fire with flint and steel on the treasurer’s chest until he was nearly dead, ultimately beheading him;6

When Muhammad was about to execute a man, the man pleaded, “Who will look after my children?” to which Muhammad responded, “Hell!”7

Just by scratching the surface of the earliest biography we find many troubling accounts of Muhammad. By the time hadith were written under men like Imam Bukhari and Imam Muslim, many of these accounts were filtered out of Muhammad’s biography, just as Ibn Hisham and al-Bakkai had filtered the accounts that they received.

For this reason, selective filtration, the whole body of hadith is inherently flawed: They contain only those accounts that multiple generations of early Muslims each chose to save. As we have seen, even those that were kept are often considered flawed and fabricated.

WHAT CAN WE REALLY KNOW ABOUT MUHAMMAD?
For this reason, non-Muslim scholars of early Islam are very hesitant to trust the information about the life of Muhammad. Almost none accept the science of hadith criticism as it stands, most just hoping to extract historical kernels of truth from the hadith. Some scholars have even abandoned hope of that much success, saying virtually nothing can be known about Muhammad.
These scholars are from a variety of religious and nonreligious backgrounds. One Muslim scholar concluded that, given the nature of the evidence, Muhammad may not have even existed.

Muhammad Sven Kalisch completed his PhD in Islamic jurisprudence in 1997 and became Germany’s first professor to hold a chair in Islamic theology. When he arrived at Münster University in 2004, he struck some as too conservative on account of his zeal for sharia. But then, according to the Wall Street Journal, Kalisch “wanted to subject Islam to the same scrutiny as Christianity and Judaism.”8 At first he defended the historicity of Muhammad in print, but the more he studied, the more he realized there were significant problems with the record. The word Muhammad appears only four times in the Quran, and it is unclear whether it is a name or a title. Quran 61.6 appears to say that the Prophet’s name was Ahmad, not Muhammad.9 There is no other evidence of Muhammad’s existence until the turn of the eighth century, when coins bearing his name were produced. “The more I read, the historical person at the root of the whole thing became more and more improbable,” says Muhammad Kalisch.

Other scholars are coming to similar conclusions on account of the holes in the historical records. Their concerns are more than an argument from silence; if the traditional understanding of Islam is true, it is indeed very problematic that we do not find more about Muhammad in the earliest historical records. If Muhammad was the prophet of the Arabs, and if they were energized and motivated by his teachings, why is it that the Arab conquests of the Middle East, North Africa, and Persia never mention his name? These conquests occurred in the middle of the seventh century, immediately after Muhammad’s death, yet none of the contemporary records mention Muhammad. In fact, none mention a holy book or even the word Muslim. It is not that there are no records; considering the communications of the conquerors and the writings of the conquered, there are abundant records, yet Muhammad is never named, a holy book is never discussed, and the conquerors are never called Muslims.

Other evidence also has historians scratching their heads: Although Mecca is reputed to be a trade center, it never appears in any trade routes until the turn of the eighth century; none of the earliest mosques faced toward Mecca (all faced toward either Jerusalem or Petra until about the turn of the eighth century); Mecca is mentioned only once in the Quran; the descriptions of the land in the Quran sound very little like Mecca, much more like northern Arabia; and the list goes on.

For these reasons, not just one Muslim scholar but many scholars doubt the traditional origins of Islam and even the existence of Muhammad, at least as the early Islamic records describe him. According to them, the truth about the origins of Islam is unfortunately veiled. There is almost nothing we can know with certainty about the historical Muhammad.10
Why will you make blatantly false claims?

In the year 661, Sahl ibn Abī Ḥathma, Abdullah ibn Abbas, and Saʿīd ibn Saʿd ibn ʿUbāda al-Khazrajī wrote about Muhammad in various historical texts. These three writers were contemporaries of the Prophet Muhammad and played significant roles in documenting his life and teachings.

Does 661-632 =140 years? Please what form of maths is this?
Christianity EtcRe: Divine Revelation: Fela Kuti Laments Agonizingly From Hell. by Explore2xmore: 10:09am On Apr 27, 2024
Solajinspiratio:
During a Divine encounter on a prayer mountain, Lord Jesus Christ sent Archangel Michael to Daniel Godswill in order to take him to Hell and show him the hopeless condition of damned souls who are agonizing in Hell.

Among the damned souls in Hell Daniel saw was late Fela Kuti, popularly known by his numerous fans as 'King of Afrobeat' Music while alive on Earth. He died at the age of 58 years in August 2, 1997.

Archangel Michael revealed to Daniel the sinful lifestyle and unrepentant condition that brought Fela Kuti to Hell after his death on Earth in 1997.

Surely, after physical death on Earth comes judgment (Hebrews 9:27). Therefore, it is necessary to accept the great salvation offer of Lord Jesus Christ while one is still alive on Earth because there is no hope of salvation again after physical death.

Daniel Godswill testified:

I Saw Fela Kuti In Hell.

As I and the Angel of the Lord continue moving, we reached the chamber of a man, who was all filled with intensive fire burning with great degrees. In it, were filled with worms on his face, poisonous snakes, so demonic and dangerous (Mark 9:43-48).

The Lord's Angel said to me, "Daniel, that you see there, is Fela Kuti. He is here, for making himself as a god."

He was crying for help but immediately he opens his mouth, a very huge snake would enters his mouth and will be moving inside of his mouth. That will make him shouts and scream but to no avail to help him.

The Lord's Angel told me, "Daniel, tell the people who believe in reincarnation that they will end up in here. No humanity is reincarnated for any reasons (Hebrews 9:27).

At this point, the man inside this burning fire came out, and began to plead and asking the Angel to remove him out from there. He said to Him, "Haven't I suffered enough for coming in here? Save me for once to rest a little for I have already suffered enough right from the day I arrived in here."

The man, known as Fela Kuti said to the Angel, "I didn't led the people to worship me on Earth, please, I only did what I was supposed to do and I ended up in here. I didn't do anything wrong."

Then, immediately he said that, a big screen showed and appeared before us and behold, I saw him, while he was still on Earth, advising the people to sing and curse the Most High God by telling them, there is nothing like God but of his own god.

After that was done, another place was shown where he was fornicating with two women at the same time, with his cigarette on his left hand while the two women was having intercourse with him.

After this, another place was shown where he was about to give up the ghost. He was telling his followers to build up a shrine of his name after his death and making the people worshiping him and praising his name before he then died. After then, the screen disappeared.

The Angel asked him, "Kuti in all your life time, did you asked Lord Jesus Christ of whom you rejected for forgiveness?" He began to insults the Angel and God the Creator for........

This is far from acceptable. Are you certain your vision isn't disillusioned?

Fela Kuti, is/was a renowned Nigerian musician and activist, known for his outspoken criticism of governments, colonialism, oppression, and injustice through his music. Despite his rebellious and anti-establishment stance, Fela Kuti did acknowledge the existence of a higher power or God in his life.

He had a good sense of fair judgement. How much better than the so called religious adherents that are unjust.

Don't use his fame as an anchor to gain audience.
Christianity EtcRe: What Was Wrong With Abubakar's Quran: Perfect Preservation Of The Quran by Explore2xmore: 10:08am On Apr 20, 2024
Ohyoudidnt:
@Explore2xmore I have already stated this thing should be ignored. I believe you saw my post.



The entire Qur'an was not compiled into a single book during the lifetime of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh).

During his life, the verses were revealed piecemeal over approximately 23 years, and these verses were memorized by the companions and also written down on various
materials, such as parchment, bone, leaves, and stone tablets. However, the Qur'an was not collected into a single book until after the Prophet's death.

It was during the caliphate of Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) when the first official compilation of the Qur'an was undertaken and
completed, with the work being led by the chief scribe, Zayd ibn Thabit r.a. This was to preserve the Quran after a number of those who had memorized it were killed in the Battle of Yamama. The collected text was then used by Uthman ibn Affan (may Allah be pleased with him), the third Caliph, to produce a standard version and distributed to various regions to ensure the uniformity of recitation
and text.

He sees the truth but Allah clearly says:

As for those who persist in disbelief, it is the same whether you warn them or not—they will never believe.
Assalam alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu Ohyoudidnt. Beg your pardon for not following your request.

I just felt my entry with put his questions to rest.

He is unable to understand that the revelation of Quran took 23 years and it had continued to be revealed until the last year of the Prophet Muhammad's(pbuh) life. So nobody was able to compile it as a book during the Phrophet's life, since it was not complete.

Following the Prophet's demise everyone knew that the revelation had finished and Quran was not going to change anymore(no ayah would be added).

So at that time they collected (the numerous ayahs collated in writing) all those scripts written by sahaba and compiled it

TenQ:
I am sure I gave you evidence for things I wote and did not ask you for any memorised history lessing from you.
1. Is it true that I showed you that the Quran was collected BEFORE the death of Mohammed?
Evidence: Sahih al-Bukhari 3810
2. Is it True that AFTER Mohammed's death, the Quran was collected again by by Abubakar from parchments, scapula, leaf-stalks of date palms and from the memories of men (who knew it by heart)and with Khuza`ima two Verses of Surat-at-Tauba
Evidence: Sahih al-Bukhari 4679


Here it is the evidence you require:
Sahih al-Bukhari 4679
Narrated Zaid bin Thabit Al-Ansari:
who was one of those who used to write the Divine Revelation: Abu Bakr sent for me after the (heavy) casualties among the warriors (of the battle) of Yamama..... So I kept on arguing with him about it till Allah opened my bosom for that which He had opened the bosoms of Abu Bakr and `Umar. So I started locating Qur'anic material and collecting it from parchments, scapula, leaf-stalks of date palms and from the memories of men (who knew it by heart). I found with Khuza`ima two Verses of Surat-at-Tauba which I had not found with anybody else, (and they were):-- "Verily there has come to you an Apostle (Muhammad) from amongst yourselves. It grieves him that you should receive any injury or difficulty He (Muhammad) is ardently anxious over you (to be rightly guided)" (9.128) The manuscript on which the Qur'an was collected, remained with Abu Bakr till Allah took him unto Him, and then with `Umar till Allah took him unto Him, and finally it remained with Hafsa, `Umar's daughter.


Even if you assume that Mohammed collected the Quran in piles of Bones, pachments, leaves of date palms, did Mohammed also collected the Quran in the heart of some men AND particularly with Khuza`ima for which he kept two Verses of Surat-at-Tauba?
Can you see how interrogations of bogus claims about any event break down inherent falsehood?


This still does not answer the Question:
Where is the Collected Quran of Mohammed?

From my side, no human being is my ENEMY here on earth because every human is created in the image of God.
I don't want you to go to hell through the deception of Mohammed: thus a a friend, my duty is to show you the true Islam of Mohammed different from the Islam his followers tell you to memorise.

If a friend of yours is about buying a fake plot of land from a 419 at a cost of N30 million Naira: will you do everything within your power to show your friend that the photocopies of the title deeds of the land is fake? Or will you keep quiet and watch till your friend is swindled of his savings and livelihood?

Moreover, why are you angry with me?
Don't you believe in the DESTINY of Allah again?
Is it untrue that Allah is the one who has written for me to Oppose Islam on Nairaland
If this is True, Im I not doing the will of Allah according to Islam?



This is another history lesson which contradicts Sahih al-Bukhari 3810

Sahih al-Bukhari 3810
Narrated Qatada:
Anas said, "The Qur'an was collected in the lifetime of the Prophet (ﷺ) by four (men), all of whom were from the Ansar: Ubai, Mu`adh bin Jabal, Abu Zaid and Zaid bin Thabit." I asked Anas, "Who is Abu Zaid?" He said, "One of my uncles."

Does this Hadith say that the Quran was collected DURING THE LIFETIME of Mohammed?

Is it UNTRUE that that Mohammed re-arranged or ordered the sequence of the Surah of the Quran?
Recall that the Qur'an was not arranged in chapters and verses based on revelation and this arrangement was done by Mohammed himself.

Was the Quran ordered in chapters on piles of Bones, pachments, leaves of date palms and did Mohammed also ordered the Quran in the heart of some men AND particularly with Khuza`ima where he kept two Verses ?

Questions always betray the cascades of fables used in supporting Islam.



Evidence for Breastfeeding Adults in the Quran
Sunan an-Nasa'i 3307
It was narrated that 'Aishah said:
"One of the things that Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, revealed" -(one of the narrators) Al-Harith said (in his narration): "One of the things that were revealed in the Qur'an"- "was that ten known breast-feedings make marriage prohibited, then that was abrogated and changed to five known breast-feedings. Then the Messenger of Allah passed away when this was something that was still being recited in the Qur'an."



The other wives of Mohammed detests Breastfeeding of Adults and their argument was that it was just a conscession by Mohammed to Salim


Sunan an-Nasa'i 3324
It was narrated that 'Urwah said:
"The rest of the wives of the Prophet refused for anyone to enter upon them on the basis of that type of breast-feeding, meaning breast-feeding of an adult. They said to 'Aishah: 'By Allah, we think that what the Messenger of Allah told Sahlah bint Suhail to do was a concession which was granted by the Messenger of Allah only with regard to breast-feeding Salim. By Allah, no one will enter upon us, nor see us on the basis of this type of breast-feeding.'"


Did you see that Breastfeeding Adults was recited in the Quran and suddenly it disappeared?



Have a nice day sir.
Please let's call it a day sir.
If Islam was true, it wouldn't be difficult answering any Questions because the Truth cannot be shaken!

Salam Alaikum!
Zaid bin Thabit’s collation of the Quran involved gathering all the written fragments of the Quran that were scattered among various companions who had memorized different parts of it.

Was all the written form of the Quran in any one place before this?

NO.

The many companions of the Prophet Muhammad who had memorized the entire Quran during his lifetime served as invaluable resources for verifying the accuracy of the compiled text.

If a friend is on the verge of being defrauded the best I can do is advice him to be diligent and cautious. If any useful information is available to me I will share but that's the most in reality

Was the Quran collected in written form and in one place in Muhammad pbuh 's lifetime? Definitely not otherwise show where?

Did the four come together to collect the Quran? Show when and where all the Quran was collected by these four.

a. What happened to the Quran of Muhammad that necessitated Abubakr to issue another instruction for collection of the Quran to Zaid? Sahih al-Bukhari 4679

If the Quran was collected at the time of Mohammed, where was it written: except the Quran was never collected during the time of Mohammed

You did not answer:
Why did Zaid not just copy the Quran of Mohammed but rather choose to start his collection from the scratch?

My third Question:
3. According to Zaid when he was compiling the Quran of Abubakar, he found the last verse Quran 9:128-129 with an Ansar.
a. If we assume that the Quran of Abubakar was complete, how come that Quran 33:23 was NOT found in the Quran of Abubakar but with Khuza`ima bin Thabit Al-Ansari? Sahih al-Bukhari 4530


Your Response:

*I think I have shown you that the Quran was collected during the Lifetime of Mohammed in Sahih al-Bukhari 3810
*Then the Quran was collected during the time of Abubakr
*Then the Quran was collected collected again during the time of Uthman

Except the Quran was not collected during thr time of Mohammed.
Dont forget that mohammed re-arranged or ordered the sequence of the Surah of the Quran.
Recall that the Qur'an was not arranged in chapters and verses based on revelation and this arrangement was done by Mohammed himself.

This can only be done when the Quran was written! Do you disagree with this?

My Question 4:
4. Is it true that even after the final collection of the Quran by Uthman,
a. Umar said: "We do not find the Verses of the Rajam (stoning to death) in the Holy Book" ? Sahih al-Bukhari 6829
b. Where then is the verse on Rajam?
Your Response:

1. The verse of stoning and breastfeeding of adult males were eaten by a goat/sheep as reported by Aisha.
2. The verse on Breastfeeding was not abrogated. It was reduced from ten times breastfeeding to five
Neither the 10 or 5 exist in the Quran of today.
3. Mohammed actually gave judgement of stoning in the hadiths followed by the Sahabas
*Jami` at-Tirmidhi 1435 (A woman from Juhainah)
*Bulugh al-Maram 553 (the Ghamidi woman)
*Sahih al-Bukhari 2314, 2315
*Sunan Ibn Majah 2555
*Musnad Ahmad 978 Sharahah (Ali)
*Sahih Muslim 1672c
*Musnad Ahmad 1317

Do you need more evidence of stoning by Mohammed and the Sahabas?
When a football match is going on and commentary is being made from the beginning is the commentator from the beginning not making comments about the match despite the match not yet completed?
You must have a severely warped mine.

Almighty God has spoken to man since the creation of man and he completed all that was needed to know by man for his existence on Earth in the Quran how many years after man came to earth.

How many years after creation of the heavens and the worlds was mankind created? Is this part of the information revealed to mankind or not? The revelations should have just started after man was created without any reference to the creation part or shouldn't it?

Did slight changes occur with Jesus permitting some things forbidden to Israelites to them? Did Muhammad pbuh have revelations that were later replaced with better? A clear example Jesus on the first biblical miracle of turning water into wine not say there were better things to come and also say the people couldn't bare some things? In the time of Muhammad pbuh alcohol was initially allowed then a stopping of those who had consumed same from attending congregation prayers then totally forbidden.

When these things were written were the recorders writing and memorizing other than the recitation; the Quran? Were these not written in small bits and collections from bone pieces, animal skin, tree barks etc.?

Was there a collection of the bones, skin, tree barks etc. in one place?

Show me where this was.

Of course it's obvious that whatever the four men independent of each other leatnt they learnt and memorized exceptionally well.

Say in graduate school you do well all through and always had a cgpa of around 4.5 on the average. If you had a cgpa of 5.0 in the 1st year, 4.47 in the second, 4.98 in the 3rd and 4.88 in the 4th will you be said to have not been an exceptional student throughout your college years?
Did you or did not have an average of 4.83 at the end?

You rely so much on the hadith and I ask which came first of the two?

Which was divinely revealed?

Didn't Zaid not copy of what was revealed? He ensured he found documented evidence hence the search for the last verse of Surah Tawbah.

[size=18pt]A declaration of immunity from God and His Messenger to the polytheists with whom you had made a treaty[/size]

Tenq persistently lies that I am a friend when I am not. We disagree on nairaland.com which is the only avenue of address. How can we be friends?

[size=14pt]Tenq the Polytheist through a Trinitarian belief is of those Allah has declared immunity from[/size].


Nothing happened to the Quran revealed to the prophet which was fully memorized by many and was written in parts in several seperate writing materials. The death of many of those who had it fully memorized necessitated the collation into a single book and duplication for distribution in later times ti ensure uniformity.

As unanimously reported Abu Bakr told Zayd not to rely on his memory ever and to demand two witnesses with written copies for each verse as evidence.

And (it is) a Qur’an which We have divided (into parts), in order that you might recite it to men at intervals. And We have revealed it by stages”. Q17:106.

“And those who disbelieved say: “Why is the Qur’an not revealed unto him all at once?” Thus (it is sent down in parts), that We may strengthen your heart thereby. And We have revealed it unto you gradually, in stages” Q25:32.

Angel Jibril used to present the Qur’an to the Prophet (May the peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) during the month of Ramadan once every year. However, he presented it to him twice in the last month of Ramadan of his life.  

Jibril used to descend on prophet Muhammad pbuh and say to him: place so and so verse in so and so place, as narrated by Ahmad.

The verse on breast feeding adult males was never part of the Quran otherwise both it and the verse abrogating it will be found in the Quran. The exception in just the case of Salim derives solely from hadith.

Breastfeeding is only for babies/infants. It is tiring on a mother breast feeding a baby not to imagine a grown man. Be realistic and deliberately stop the delusion you are in and if it's drugs and alcohol please stop these.

a. Umar said: "We do not find the Verses of the Rajam (stoning to death) in the Holy Book" ? Sahih al-Bukhari 6829
b. Where then is the verse on Rajam?
The Quran was revealed over 23 years with the last verse revealed not long before the death of Prophet Muhammad pbuh.

At different times along with revelation some of these verses were written in parts. As a book the Quran was not fully written and compiled during the lifetime of prophet Muhammad. How many people could read at this time?

2. The Quran fully written as 1 Mushaf was not done in the lifetime of the prophet

3 As verses were written in line with revelation and not collected as a book despite quite a number haven memorised it was important to get both written verses as well as oral recall to ensure authenticity.

4. The verse on stoning to death is said to have been abrogated from the Quran due to specific circumstances or divine wisdom. The view maintained is that its practice is based on authentic Hadiths and established legal principles within Islamic jurisprudence.

However some scholars question the authenticity of the Hadiths supporting stoning to death and argue that without a clear Quranic mandate, such punishments should not be implemented. They advocate for a more lenient interpretation of Islamic law that prioritizes mercy and justice over harsh penalties.

Mention 3 persons and on which this was pronounced by Prophet Muhammad.

Ubai bin Ka`b was one of the companions who excelled in memorization of the Quran and recitation. He was among the select few who had the honor of being chosen by the Prophet to recite the Quran in his presence.
Ubai was known for his expertise in the recitation of the Quran and his commitment to preserving the revelations.


Mu`adh bin Jabal was another companion who had a deep understanding of the Quran and was entrusted by the Prophet with important tasks. He was known for his wisdom and knowledge, and his dedication to learning and
teaching the Quran.

Abu Zaid was a scribe who was skilled in writing down the revelations of the Quran. He played a crucial role in compiling and preserving the Quran during the time of the Prophet.

Abu Zaid worked closely with Zaid bin Thabit, another scribe who was known for his proficiency in writing Arabic script.

I will be the first to intercede and the first whose intercession will be accepted, and it is no boast. The banner of praise will be in my hand on the Day of Resurrection, and it is no boast.”

Now, you are confused.

And We created you, then fashioned you, then told the angels: Fall ye prostrate before Adam! And they fell prostrate, all save Iblis, who was not of those who make prostration.

b. Is the breath of Allah spirit?
c. Is Jibril a spirit?

I have maintained this:
According to the Qur'an, Jesus is a Co-Creator with Allah. It doesn't matter if it was by Allah's permission or not.

Is it true that: Jesus created from mud a bird and Jesus breathe (not Allah) into it and the mud came to life as a bird

In the whole universe, can you tell me just ONE person who created even a fly in addition to what Allah created?

You mentioned fitrah in your earlier post

TenQ:
Was the word Fitrah also used for John or any other person apart from Jesus?
What is fitrah?
Fitrah is an Arabic term that refers to the natural disposition of human beings. It is derived from the Arabic root word “Fatar” which means to create or to shape.

Fitrah is the natural inclination towards monotheism and the recognition of God’s existence that every human being possesses.

This disposition is strongly due to the attestation of man before he was born.

Does your Bible not read in Jeremiah 1
4 The word of the Lord came to me, saying,

5 “Before I formed you in the womb I knew[a] you,before you were born I set you apart;I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.

Is it only Jeremiah that God knows before he is formed in the womb? Or only those who become prophets?

Quran 30:30
So set thou thy face steadily and truly to the Faith: (establish) Allah's handiwork according to the pattern on which He has made mankind: no change (let there be) in the work (wrought) by Allah: that is the standard Religion: but most among mankind understand not. (Yusuf Ali)

Bukhari 4775
Allah's Messenger pbuh said, "No child is born except on Al-Fitra (Islam) and then his parents make him Jewish, Christian or Magian, as an animal produces a perfect young animal: do you see any part of its body amputated?"

TenQ:
You quoted things my Jesus never said from a man who lived 630 years after Him and you expect me to adopt them as TRUE just because your prophet said so!?
Does this make sense to you?
All I need to do is to point out inconsistencies in your narrative and it would be clear to you that this is a complete fabricated story.


A human being is a physical being according to your beliefs or do you now believe that man is a trinity or at least a duality ?
Therefore, a man can only be created when he has his physical body complete.
Thus Creating you then fashioned you is the same thing.


Even though this narration of Quran 7:172-173 is false, Jesus is not a descendant of Adam for Genealogy is determined generally through the male line (patriarchally).

When is a human being created or come into existence: is it at birth or before birth?
Quran 7:172-173 is true only if you concur that humans exist fully before they physically come into existence.
Again, is a human being a trinity/duality according to Islam?


Muslims are the only people i know who would do everything to misinterprete the words of their Allah.
Allah did NOT say what you are inserting into his mouth!
Is the Quran not easy to comprehend again?
Jesus is the Spirit from Allah
Jesus is the Word of Allah

It cannot be clearer than this sir!

All you needed to do is also to answer the questions
a. What is a Spirit?
If you do not know what a spirit is, how can you understand that Jesus IS a Spirit

b. Is the breath of Allah spirit?
c. Is Jibril a spirit?



You tell me!
I have shown you the implication if humans existed before they are born: is human being created as trinity/duality?
So, which one?


Are you wiser than your Allah?
What is the criteria given by Allah for the Creator?

Quran 22:73
O men! Here is a parable set forth! listen to it! Those on whom, besides Allah, ye call, cannot create (even) a fly, if they all met together for the purpose! and if the fly should snatch away anything from them, they would have no power to release it from the fly. Feeble are those who petition and those whom they petition!


Don't ask stupid question or I will ask you about where it is recorded in the Quran that Allah created the waters or the centipedes or the bacteria or the amoeba or the butterfly: this argument is feeble and at best lame.

Is it UNTRUE that Jesus created a BIRD exactly like Allah created Adam.


Once you answer my questions I've been asking you, you will see.

1. Is this Narrative of Sahih Bukhari 4712; 7440 a true or false occurrence?
If the above is TRUE,

2. Then answer me: Is this hadith below also true?
Sunan Ibn Majah 4308
It was narrated from Abu Sa’eed that the Messenger of Allah said:
“I am the leader of the sons of Adam, and it is no boast. I will be the first one for whom the earth will be split open on the Day of Resurrection, and it is no boast. I will be the first to intercede and the first whose intercession will be accepted, and it is no boast. The banner of praise will be in my hand on the Day of Resurrection, and it is no boast.”
Oh now this is your argument?
A future occurrence to happen on the day of judgement which is to come or what are you trying to say? What wasn't said?

What inconsistencies? I don't get it.

Don't make me fall of the chair laughing. You mean having a soul equates to a duality/trinity which you apply to the almighty God. Please where is the body of God. You can be silly to say it was your Jesus that was rough handled and crucified. Oh how powerless this god of yours must be.

The narration in Quran 7:172-173 is false? How did you arrive at that? The Holy spirit told you? Oh please!

You feign a misunderstanding because it doesn't agree with you? Yes indeed Tenq created his god in his own image that does what Tenq wants and believes to be right.

Can I get a truthful answer of you? The spirit in all humans was created and originates from where? Does any other thing have the ability to create a spirit?
Do explain this as it is not making sense
.

You refer to Quran 22:73 and this is accepted as truth by you yet you refect Quran 7:172-173? Does this not make you like the Pharisee elders Jesus was against? You twist the scripture to your taste. Do one thing and preach another.

You selectively refuse or pretend to not see that Jesus created by leave of Allah that is Allah allowed this to be so for a miracle/sign to be seen by the Israelites?
When Manna fell for the Israelites feeding during their Exodus was this Moses's doing or God's? Truly why you are cautioned in Quran 4:171 O People of the Book! Do not go to extremes regarding your faith; say nothing about Allah except the truth.
Is it not an extreme asserted by you that Jesus created not the one from whom Jesus comes as a messenger? Did the Angel that came to Mary create Jesus or Allah/God?

Created a bird exactly how Adam was created?
Ok for added clarity did the Bird Jesus created have any other being commanded to bow to it? Was it placed at a place and given instructions of what to do and not do by Jesus? I haven't seen this do point it out to me please.
In any case Jesus creating Birds isn't in your Bible or is it? Kindly show and remind me. But you accept that part of the Quran to be true and others false?

1. The Narrative in 4712 and 7440 is a revelation of what is to come. Let's see at the time of Judgement.

2. Perharps you can tell me as thd expert of Islamic literature. Is it different in truth from the other hadiths you share?

And for the question you appear to stop short of asking Quran 42:29
And of his signs is the creation of the heavens and earth and what He has dispersed throughout them of creatures. And He, for gathering them when He wills, is competent.

Greenholics:
You can major in minor all you want but still doesn’t change the fact that Catholics are Christian’s and the core of Christianity is Jesus Christ as a matter of fact Christian’s means “Christ like” even your Quran calls him an “holy”


You can cry about that all you want but that doesn’t mean or change the fact that you are still a black stone licker…….. and you are guilt if patronizing ashewo sim the name of mutah …. Your religion enforces that.
Boohoo, what a piece to read through.

Alas you failed to comprehend that there are disagreements amongst the Christians in the religion. Starting from the nature of Jesus, celebrating his birth, the day of worship to name a few.

It is perculiar that the nature of Jesus was forcefully compelled by the Roman persecutors.

Enjoy your amusement in misunderstanding.

TenQ:
1. Jesus wasn't made from mud (different from Adam)
2. Jesus was a Spirit from Allah and his Word.
If Jesus was a spirit FROM Allah, he Pre-existed before his incarnation.
3. All sons of Adam die and decompose : what happened to Jesus?


My argument is that
1. Qur'an is false as Jesus wasn't created by Be!
2. Qur'an is false because Adam wasn't created by Be!
3. The way Allah created Adam is completely different from Jesus.

You were the one who raise the issue of the difficulty of Allah creating Jesus all over from mud.
I have been careful to use the Islamic Narrative of how you claim Jesus was created. I am sure you know it is different from what the Bible states about the incarnation of Jesus.



All you needed to do is to answer the question
What is a Spirit?
If you do not know what a spirit is, how can you understand that Jesus IS a Spirit

Is the breath of Allah spirit?
Is Jibril a spirit?


All your argument is saying that Jesus is a CO-CREATOR with Allah only because Allah gave Him the permission/authority/power:
Do you agree with this?

Are you aware that in Quran 3:49, Jesus used the word I ( Me, Myself) : showing that HE did all He said (permission or no permission).

By the way who else in the Universe has been given this permission?
Is it Jibril or any of the Angels, is it Satan or any of the Jinn? Is it Mohammed or any of the Sahaba?

Are you aware that Allah gave a condition in the Qur'an to know who we can worship.
Can Baal or Shaitaan create a fly?





Mohammed was NOT saved from death from the poison he ate as he himself attested AND he was in pains throughout the ordeal.

Sahih al-Bukhari 4428
Narrated `Aisha:
The Prophet (ﷺ) in his ailment in which he died, used to say, "O `Aisha! I still feel the pain caused by the food I ate at Khaibar, and at this time, I feel as if my aorta is being cut from that poison."


Do you know better than your prophet?


Okay!
The hadith is complete fabrication by Mohammed himself.
If you disagree with my position, a few questions from me will expose it.
Are you afraid!?
Let's first start with your answer to my question.
The hadith is complete fabrication by Mohammed himself.

Oh! This hadith is a fabrication and all the numerous others you share are not?

How is this? Can you prove this beyond any form of doubt? Who transmitted this hadith to you or where did you read or hear it?

Then let's look at the creation of mankind particularly at Quran 7:11; which reads:

And We created you, then fashioned you, then told the angels: Fall ye prostrate before Adam! And they fell prostrate, all save Iblis, who was not of those who make prostration.

Regarding the emboldened was the entity of man created before giving him form or vice versa? The essence, spirit or soul of man was created before it was put into the body.

Quran [7:172-173] when Allah created Adam He took a covenant from him, and then extracted from Adam all of his descendants. He took a covenant from them asking, “Am I not your lord?” and they all replied “Yes we testify to it”.

The emboldened in the paragraph us before the descendants are born into the world.
Is Jesus amongst these descendants?

Jesus is yet to die and in time he will die, be buried and decay when his earthly life will be completed before the day of judgement.


What word was conveyed to Mary the mother of Jesus? This word is the command into existence.

The conversation between Mary and the angel is to adequately inform her and not get her distressed or confused by the occurence of a pregnancy.

Quran 19 vs 34. That is Jesus son of Mary—the Word of truth about which they doubt.
And
35. It is not for God to have a child—glory be to Him. To have anything done, He says to it, “Be,” and it becomes.

Were you there when any of these commands made by Allah were made to be satisfied that he made this commands? It appears you need to have seen and heard this yourself to be convinced.


Where were the descendants of Adam whom Allah extracted from him before they were or are born into the world?

Mr Co-creator enthusiasts can you show where Jesus co created other things outside the mold of the bird that he breated into that came to life by Allah's will not Jesus's?

Like stars, mountains, rivers etc.?

Why is this life creation limited to only birds. Can you show other creatures Jesus created?

Your condition is interesting as you failed to show Jesus created a fly or you surmise that since birds fly in the sky they are equal to the fly?


So in Bukhari 4428 didn't lie but in the question I asked you he did?

How did you conclude this. I/we really want to know.
