UncleAyo: Infact, Illah is what the Arabic call God and not Allah. Allah was one of the diety been worshiped before the invention of Islam. That is why muslims will say something like "la ilah ila huwa" meaning Allah is one Illah (God). Arabic has a general term for God, "Ilah", Muslims specifically use "Allah" to refer to the Creator of the heavens and the earth. The name "Allah" embodies all the perfect attributes and qualities of God as outlined in the Quran. In Islam, Allah is the specific name for God used solely to denote the one true deity deserving of worship. Unlike a generic term for God, Allah uniquely identifies the Supreme Being in Islam. |

UncleAyo: Islam Is Idolatry And Paganism?
Historians like Vaqqidi have said. Allah was actually the chief of the 360 gods being worshipped in Arabia at the time Mohammed rose to prominence. Ibn Al-Kalbi gave twenty-seven names of pre-Islamic deities. From the Qur’an itself, we can name up to nine of these idols. The Ka’bah, housing many of these gods, has remained the temple of Allah and which Muslims revere and go to worship and kiss in the Mecca during the Hajj. It is significant to remind ourselves that even if a Muslim is not in Mecca, he has to face the direction of this shrine, Ka’bah, while praying every time. History says pagans in Arabia had been visiting Ka’bah on pilgrimage centuries before Islam started at all. Foreign merchants and Arabs faced the Ka’bah in prayer because that was where most of their gods were deposited. Many of the gods were brought by these merchants from their countries.
Interestingly, Muslims want to accept that Mecca was already being worshipped at this Ka’bah shrine in Mecca by Arabs and pagans before Mohammed came. They do not want to accept the fact that even the ways hajj was being performed in those days by the pagans: the shaving of hair, the running around the Ka’bah, the kissing of the black stone, the sacrifices, etc.
Some Muslims get flared up when they are confronted with these facts. But history is not on their side. Pre-Islamic literature has prove this. In the Quran itself, we see that pre-Islamic pagan Arabs made their strongest oaths in the name of Allah because they believed he was the most powerful of their gods (Surah 6:109), He was already regarded by the pagans as the creator, the lord of the shrine, the lord of Ka'bah, and the territorial god of the city of Mecca. Ka'bah was also known as "baithu'llah" ("house of allah" . All other idol shrines in other regions in Arabia were also called "baitullah'. Mohammed said he had been called to worship "the Lord of this house (that is the shrine of Ka'bah)" (Surah 106:3; 27:91; 6:109). In that Surah 27:91, Allah was called "the Lord of this city (Mecca)". That means he was a territorial god. That is the reason for the pilgrimage, and the reason why every Muslim must face the direction of Mecca while praying. If he faces elsewhere he knows he is not facing Allah.
Apart from Allah, other major deities being worshipped by these pagans of Mecca are Al-lat or Allat (which is the Islamic goddesses, the feminine form of the word "allah" . The other female idols being worshipped at the time are al-Uzzra and al-Manat (Surah 53:19-20), and they were all being worshipped inside the Ka'bah. According to Al-Tabari, the gharaaniq (female idols) were even regarded as daughters of Allah. Other popular idols were Wadd, Suwa, Yaguth, Ya'uq, Nasr, and Hubal which Muhammad's wife, Khadijah, too sacrificed to and worshipped because her sons to Mohammed were dying young (Surah 17:23; See also the book, The Life of Muhammad by Egyptian Islamic scholar, Mohammed Haykal (p.69).
One other proof that Allah was already being worshipped as an idol in Arabia is the fact that Mohammed's father was called Abdallah or Abdullah, meaning "the servant or slave of Allah", and yet he wasn't a Muslim! He was an idol worshipper, and was named after that idol.
Some have taken this to mean that Allah must therefore be almighty God. But What this can only prove is that Allah was alread known in Arabia to be a supernatural being. It is NOT a proof that he is God Almighty

Also, previous Threads: 1. Mut'ah: A Divine Prostitution 2. Kaaba Of The Bedouin Tribes I wonder if you are seeking peer review or poking fun. Did you substantiate that 9 Idols are mentioned in the Quran or blindly copy to paste? Al-Waqidi’s works focus more on the Sirah (biographies of Muhammad) and early Islamic conquests rather than on pre-Islamic theology. Waqidi does not explicitly state that Allah was one of the 360 idols in the Kaaba, as one might envision the physical statues and idols worshipped by pre-Islamic Arabs. Instead, he implies that Allah was among the deities revered by the polytheistic Arabs, but not in the same manner as idols like Hubal, Al-Lat, Al-Uzza, or Manat. While Al-Waqidi's writings mainly concentrate on early Islamic history, they have faced criticism regarding their reliability. Some of his narratives may be shaped by later theological views or misinterpretations. There is no clear and widely accepted assertion from Al-Waqidi that Allah was an idol; such a statement would contradict the core monotheistic message of Islam which denounce idol worship and promote belief in the One God. The claims that Al-Waqidi suggested Allah was just another idol among many, must be a misunderstanding or oversimplifying his work. Waqqidi acknowledges Allah as a major deity within a wider polytheistic context, without equating Him to lesser idols. He highlights Allah’s importance as a primary deity worshipped by certain tribes, especially the Quraysh. He points out that although many idols were honored in Mecca, Allah was distinct as the creator and sustainer. His writings illustrate how various tribes honored different idols, while also noting that some people called upon Allah for particular needs or in times of distress. This reflects a nuanced relationship between monotheistic beliefs and polytheistic practices. |

TV Misyar however it's seen is clearly different from Mutah. Ali reported that Allah's Messenger pbuh forbade Mut'ah and the eating of the flesh of domestic donkeys on the day of Khaybar." (Sahih Muslim, Hadith 1407) The Messenger of Allah pbuh said: 'O people! I had permitted you to contract temporary marriage with women. But Allah has forbidden it until the Day of Resurrection. So, anyone who has such a woman in his possession, he should let her go, and do not take anything of what you have given them.'" (Sahih Muslim, Hadith 1406) |

UncleAyo: In Summary: The thread discusses Mut'ah marriage, a temporary union in Islamic tradition allowing a man to marry a woman for a specified period in exchange for money, without formalities like witnesses or registration. Historically practiced in pre-Islamic Arabia, it was later permitted by Prophet Muhammad, as referenced in Islamic texts and supported by some scholars using Surah 4:24. Critics argue that Mut'ah complicates Islamic laws on adultery and prostitution, undermines Sharia, and contradicts even Biblical moral teachings, raising questions about its divine approval. The practice remains controversial and widely debated within and outside the Muslim world. Glad you started with the truth but diverted in later discussion. Mut'ah did predate Islam and was initially permitted, it was ultimately prohibited by the Prophet Muhammad pbuh as part of the comprehensive reform of pre-Islamic practices. istamtaʿtum in the verse 4:24 is often understood as referring to the lawful enjoyment of marital relations not temporal marriage |

The journey of the Israelites from Egypt to the Promised Land, as described in the Hebrew Bible, features several notable instances of idolatry.
The spread of idol worship from Israel to areas such as Syria and Yemen can be linked to trade routes and military conquests. As the Israelites engaged with neighboring nations through trade or conflict, they exchanged cultural practices, including religious beliefs. For example, the worship of Baal gained popularity in both Israel and its neighboring regions due to its allure as a fertility deity.
Amr ibn Luhay is credited with bringing idolatry from Syria to Arabia. According to traditional accounts, he journeyed to the Levant, where he encountered idol worship among the local inhabitants.
Prior to the rise of idolatry, many tribes in Arabia adhered to a form of monotheism that can be traced back to the teachings of the prophets Ibrahim (Abraham) and Ismail (Ishmael).
Isn't Israel key to idolatry?
Hubal was a Moabite deity imported into Mecca. |

In ancient Near Eastern cultures, it was common for people to bow or prostrate themselves before kings or deities as a gesture of respect and submission.
Bowing serves as a physical gesture that conveys submission, reverence, and worship. In the ancient Near Eastern cultures, including that of the Israelites, bowing was a widely accepted way to show respect to gods or figures of authority.
Moses: In Exodus 34:8, after receiving God’s commandments, Moses immediately bows down to the ground in worship.
David: In 1 Chronicles 29:20, David instructs the entire assembly to bless the Lord their God, prompting them to bow down and prostrate themselves before Him.
Solomon: During the temple dedication in 2 Chronicles 7:3, Solomon guides the people in bowing their heads and prostrating themselves before the Lord.
In Exodus 20:5–6, God instructs His people not to bow down to other gods but to serve Him exclusively.
This provides a strong warning against idolatry, emphasizing that bowing should be reserved for worship and loyalty to Yahweh alone.
Should there be any problem if reference is made to any part of the Bible that carries a theme emphasizing the supremacy of the almighty God above all? |

MaxInDHouse: This is a lie!
That's why you can't find it in any scriptures of the Hebrews where they are praying for dead people because it's the works they did while they are alive that will continue to be their lot afterwards, it's paganism that allows praying for dead people because they don't know what their gods could do about the dead. If someone has been blessed by the Almighty God neither your prayer or curse can have any impact in the judgement of such a person. You see this is the reason i found it really difficult to wrap that religion over my head because it makes no practical sense!
You say Muhammad has been blessed but there is no proof, he died through poisoning, all his children were killed in his life time, his followers later began fighting and killing one another after his death. Please which of all these proves this Arab man had God's blessing?
You're free to close your eyes to the truth but you can't compel right thinking individuals to join you in your delusion there is nothing to write home about that man or his god.
The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob declared that this people are blessed that's why the whole world including those Arabs wants to relate with them by force!

MaxInDHouse: Back in Islam i was taught to believe that God can't be pleased no matter what we do even if we obey all His commandments that's why Muhammed couldn't guarantee the salvation of Muslims hence he told them that Allah can do whatever pleases him leaving faithful, sincere and honest hearted Muslims at a cross road but from the day i read Jesus' last words to his disciples i began seeking more information about this Jesus of Nazareth. I wonder how you resorted to this. The pleasure of Allah represents the ultimate aspiration for His creations. The essence of religion lies in obeying Allah and striving for His pleasure. This emphasizes that seeking Allah's pleasure is both the core principle and the ultimate aim of faith. Does this view of yours not contradict these versea if you actually came across them as a claimed Muslim of the past. Quran 98:8 Their reward with Allah will be gardens of perpetual residence beneath which rivers flow, wherein they will abide forever, Allah being pleased with them and they with Him. That is for whoever has feared his Lord. Quran 5:119 Allah will say, 'This is the Day when the truthful will benefit from their truthfulness.' For them are gardens [in Paradise] beneath which rivers flow, wherein they will abide forever, Allah being pleased with them, and they with Him. That is the great attainment." Quran 2:222: Indeed, Allah loves those who are constantly repentant and loves those who purify themselves And the Hadith: Allah is more pleased with the repentance of His servant than one of you who finds his camel after losing it in a barren desert." This powerful analogy illustrates the overwhelming joy Allah feels when a sinner repents, emphasizing His mercy and willingness to forgive. |

Firstly, the verse you provided and the hadeeth you provided from Bukhari speak of two different veins or arteries when looking at the Arabic text (the Qur’aan uses “al-wateen” while the hadeeth uses “al-abhar”). This alone disproves the claim; however, why allow an opportunity to completely obliterate this claim to go to waste?
Now if we are to understand the verses you have provided correctly, they actually reinforce the truthfulness of prophet Muhammad (PBUH) as found in numerous other verses:
“By the star when it descends, Your companion has not strayed, nor has he erred, Nor does he speak from [his own] desires, It is not but a revelation revealed” (Qur’aan / An-Najm 53:1-4)
“Indeed Allaah shall fulfill the true vision which He showed to His Messenger in very truth…” (Qur’aan / Al-Fath 48:27)
“Truly, you are one of the messengers” (Qur’aan / Yaa-Seen 36:3)
“Nay! he has come with the truth and he confirms the messengers.” (Qur’aan / As-Saaffaat 37:37)
Furthermore, with regard to this verse:
“And then certainly should have cut off his life artery (Aorta)”
This is to be understood (according to both tafsir ibn Katheer and Tabari) that if anything/any part was false or forged, it would have been a swift punishment or occurrence of having the aorta cut, which would cause instant death. It would not be delayed until after the message had been completely delivered, and in this case, perfected as Allaah later revealed in the Qur’aan:
“This day, I have perfected your religion for you, completed My Favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion.” (Qur’aan / Al-Maa’idah 5:3)
Allaah did not cut the aorta of the prophet Muhammad (PBUH), plain and simple and the prophet (PBUH) did not hve his aorta cut!
And a few fitting return questions to you then would be:
1). why would Allaah Send Blessings on a false prophet?
“Allah sends His Graces and Blessings on the prophet …” (Qur’aan / Al-Ahzaab 33:56)
2). why would Allaah say that Muhammad (PBUH) is surely a messenger and is true, if he was false?
“These are the Verses of Allah, We recite them to you in truth, and surely, you are one of the messengers.” (Qur’aan / Al-Baqarah 2:252)
“How shall Allah guide a people who disbelieved after their belief and after they bore witness that the messenger is true and after clear proofs had come unto them? And Allah guides not the people who are wrong-doers.” (Qur’aan / Aal-’Imraan 3:86)
“O humankind! Verily, there has come to you the messenger with the truth from your Lord, so believe in him, it is better for you. But if you disbelieve, then certainly to Allah belongs all that is in the heavens and the earth. And Allah is Ever All Knowing, All Wise.” (Qur’aan / An-Nisaa 4:170)
3). Why would Allaah Command the believers to obey the messenger numerous times throughout the Qur’aan if he was false?
3:32 / 3:132 / 4:42 / 4:59 / 4:69 / 4:80 / 5:92 / 24:54 / 24:56 etc.
Finally, it should also be mentioned that the statement uttered by the prophet (PBUH) about his aorta being cut was a common idiom used by Arabs in that time when referring to death in any form and is not necessarily to be taken literally. |

SIRTee15: So both al wateen in the Quran and Al abahr in hadith denotes blood vessels. Then what's the difference!!!!
I even thought they would mean different organs with different functions. Not knowing is same blood vessels for both words. So a questionable medical expert says there are no differences in blood vessels? You don't know that blood vessels in the human body come in various shapes and sizes, each with distinct structures and functions? Grasping these differences is essential for understanding blood circulation and the impact of different conditions on vascular health. Al-Wateen as used in the Quran refers particularly to the aorta while al-abhar can refer to the aorta or other major arteries. Al-abhar is used metaphorically as in the hadith metaphorically expresses the intensity of pain or a life-threatening condition. The term al-abhar within Arabic language is used to describe a state of severe pain or suffering. In medical discussions, especially in traditional and alternative medicine, “al-abhar” can refer to conditions seen as debilitating or even life-threatening. It metaphorically connects to the concept of deep, penetrating pain that can impact a person's overall health and well-being. |

Now if you want us to deal with the actual pathophysiology of Muhammed's poison effect, I will educate U but first answer my question
Was Muhammed wrong to say the poison was still in his body during his terminal illness 3 yrs after consuming the poison.
Was Muhammed wrong to have attributed his terminal illness pain to the poison effect still in his body.
If the poison had left his body as U trying to claim, why did Muhammed groan that he was dying as a result of the poison effect still in his body.
Answer the questions and I will give U a proper teaching on the poison pathophysiology U confused about. Reject evidence? Did prophet Muhammad pbuh practice cupping for sickness? What proof is there that all cupping done after the Khaybar expedition was for poison effect if he practiced cupping for other ailments before this? So all bacteria as an example are equally sensitive to the same type of antibiotics? Is this how you practice medicine?

He had recurring illness all through his last years on earth as a result of the poison.

Attn: Fxmasterz,SirTee15,Malcom1x,Maxindhouse,Mightysparrow,MrPrevailer,and all who can shed light and knowledge about this. Definitely the belief that Elijah would precede Jesus is backed by important Jewish texts, including Malachi 4:5-6, as well as interpretations in rabbinic literature such as Seder Olam Rabbah and Yalkut Shimoni. Together, these sources confirm that Elijah plays a vital role as a forerunner to messianic fulfillment. Sadly Christians pull gargantuan interpolation in the New Testament, especially in Matthew 11:14 and Matthew 17:10-12, for their Jesus messiah unaccepted by his fellow Jews to connect John the Baptist to this prophetic expectation, indicating that John fulfills Malachi’s prophecy regarding Elijah’s return when this is not the case. Not to forget a further wild goose theory that this will still happen in future. |

SIRTee15: another complete nonsense. as usual, when they are stuck, muslims deny the source of the information and start shouting its corrupt. Now he has thrown the hadith under the bus. just imagine disparaging Aisha mother of believers and calling her a liar. FYI, Aisha is the source of that hadith, she was the one who told us Muhammed's death bed confession.
Muslims should be last people to call others Idolaters. People who cant pray to their Allah except they bow down to a black stone in arabian peninsula. If that is not the perfect definition of paganism, then I dont know what else it could be.
Oniro. Is this not what u wrote earlier today
Does the hadith specifically say the poison is still in his body? Where are narrations stating he felt this pain before this hadith?
demanding the absurd from me. After I reset his brain, he's now changing mouth. There you go again. Is asking you to tell the arabic word used for aorta in the hadith and the Quran equal to throwing the hadith away? Indeed you know too little about Islam, Muslims and prayer to conclude that bowing in a direction is what prayer in Islam is about. Can you pray to God directly without going through Jesus? So as a medical expert you don't know that the human body primarily expels food poison through vomiting and diarrhea. These processes act quickly to remove harmful substances and activate immune responses to fight off infections. In many instances of food poisoning, symptoms typically diminish after a period of hours to days, depending on the specific pathogen involved, as the body effectively clears out the toxins and pathogens. Recovery includes replenishing lost fluids and nutrients. Where are narrations that support this happening to the prophet after eating the poisoned lamb? Where is the change? Is exposing the absurdity of your argument when you refuse to answer what you know that the arabic word in the hadith and quran for aorta are different now change? I ask you other questions to reveal your error to you. You mentioned hypothetical food poisons and its clearly shown how these cannot be the case and you are pathetically anxious as you have been exposed? Know what you want to bring in your mock apology to question the truth of Islam. |

MaxInDHouse: Ọmọ Jesus COMMANDED his disciples to love and pray for their enemies {Luke 6:27-28} so if you're saying different religions disobeying that order are all his followers simply because they claims so then there is no reason trying to separate your Allah from other gods all are deities and the worshipers are all THEISTS keep whatever your Allah says aside whoever claims he or she is worshiping god is for your Allah!  Your Jesus commandment to love one’s enemies is a fundamental principle of the Christian faith. However, historical events show that enmity and violence have arisen among believers for various reasons, such as misinterpretations of teachings, cultural influences, the inherent tendency of human nature towards conflict, and the impact of socio-political contexts. So regardless of your personal desire or delusion these killings occur. |

You should feel sorry for yourself haven forgotten your Bible has Jesus clearly stating that his kingdom is not of this world. Throughout history, different Christian denominations have committed acts of violence against one another or against those considered heretics. The Inquisition serves as a notable example, where people faced persecution for their beliefs, resulting in torture and execution. In modern times, conflicts involving Christians can be observed in various geopolitical situations where religious identity overlaps with nationalistic or ethnic tensions. For example, civil wars or sectarian violence in areas like Northern Ireland or certain parts of Africa frequently see Christian groups on opposing sides. |

advocatejare: Nonsense as usual, so are you saying that Muhammad didn’t know what he was saying when he ascribed the sickness that killed him to the effect of the poisoned food he ate at Khaibar?
The only thing that prevented him from dying immediately was the fact that he spilled out the poisoned food immediately he chewed it and noticed that something wasn’t right with the meat probably from its taste but despite that the effect of the poison was still felt on his uvula.
Those that died immediately are those who swallowed the meat
Sahih Muslim 26:5430 Anas reported that a Jewess came to Allah's Messenger ﷺ with poisoned mutton and he took of that what had been brought to him (Allah's Messenger). (When the effect of this poison were felt by him) he called for her and asked her about that, whereupon she said: I had determined to kill you. Thereupon he said: Allah will never give you the power to do it. He (the narrator) said that they (the Companion's of the Holy Prophet) said: Should we not kill her? Thereupon he said: No. He (Anas) said: I felt (the affects of this poison) on the uvula of Allah’s Messenger. Anas felt the effect not the prophet himself? How? Can you feel another persons Uvula by looking? |

MaxInDHouse: All these is meaningless to a neutral person as long as you claim there is an unseen supernatural being somewhere your definition doesn't matter to any neutral person but when your god is able to remove weapons in the hearts and hands of adherents that's going to make a lot of sense to whoever is concerned because that will make your god stand out not just your claims of monotheism or polytheism.  I am directly chatting with you so it is very relevant to you. |

SIRTee15: I'm not going to waste my time with a medical illiterate who had no idea what is food poisoning despite good attempt at educating him.
Even a 10 year old knows better than to consume a tiny sip of acid as a one off. It's effect on your esophagus and stomach can be permanent damage for life.
U do t know how contradictory U are beginning to sound. In your bid to exonerate your Prophet from his death bed confession, U end up calling him a LIAR.
Muhammed said the poison is still in his body cutting through his aorta and U here telling me to find the hadith that says the poison is still in his his body 3 years after he swallowed it.
Muhammed said the poison he consumed 3 yrs b4 is still in his body and U here telling me Muhammed is wrong. Instead U insisting the poison had left his body!!!! [s]You claim the poison has left Muhammed's body while sick on his death bed, but Muhammed is saying otherwise. Muhammed said he's suffering from the poison in his body[/s] 
One of you must be lying. Either you or Muhammed.
U see how desperate attempt to defend your Prophet is turning U crazy. Continue at the end, everybody go dey alright. The very height arrogant grandeur. Simply tell us the words used for aorta in the hadith and the Quran? 1. Does hadith contradict the Quran? 2. If it does which take precedence? 3. You make a silly example of a 10 year old feeling the immediate effect of sipping acid and forget one of the hadith you and your mischievous ilk rely on talk about a companion immediately feeling the poison effect and dying? 4. Why was the consumption of the poisoned meat not stopped before this? 5.Why did the prophet continue to receive revelation after this? 6. Why did he and was he able to embark on long journeys, battles and pilgrimage after this? It is natural for you apologetic liars. You will surely find that the most intense of the people in enmity toward the believers are the Jews and those who associate others with AllahI extra highlighted the lies you try to push on me. Is this how you lie to people you falsely claim to attend to medically? |

SIRTee15: So why did Muhammed say he still felt the poison in his body 3 years after eating it. And I already told U Muhammed didn't die from food poisoning. U this clown.
Why did Muhammed lament that the poison he ate 3 yrs ago is still in his body and it's cutting his aorta. Fake medical expert resorting to chatgpt? From what you generated can you first show the immediate symptoms the prophet exhibited or any others he showed related to food poisoning in the years before the sickness from which he died? When I say you are feigning medical jumbo to hide you only try to prove me correct SIRTee15: Arsenic, heavy metals, lead poisoning. Plant toxins like mushrooms poisons- amanita toxins, ethylene glucol. A single exposure can cause injury to your organ depending on the concentration and dose U consumed. Even one time consumption of industrial acid can cause irreversible damage to your gastric lying leading to permanent gastritis. This damage can become irreversible leading to progressive damage to your organs leading to future complications.
You obviously don't know what U talking about. You punching far above your weight.
Now answer my question
Why did Muhammed lament that the poison he ate 3 years ago is still in his body and it's cutting through it's aorta. Arsenic: Long-term low-level exposure leads to chronic effects, while acute symptoms arise quickly. Was the prophet repeatedly exposed to arsenic poison over a prolonged period? Lead: High-level exposure results in immediate symptoms, with chronic effects building up over time. Amanita Toxins: Severe illness can develop days after ingestion, with a delayed onset. Ethylene Glycol: Symptoms appear quickly, typically within days after ingestion. Does the hadith specifically say the poison is still in his body? Where are narrations stating he felt this pain before this hadith? For the umpteenth time as you show you have the means to what are the arabic words used for aorta in the Quran and the hadith? |
