While Muhammad was alive, he chose 4 of his closest sahabas and entrusted the recitation of the Quran to them. Muhammad commanded all his followers to learn the Quran from them. The four chosen by the prophet were specifically: 1. Abdulla Ibn Mas’ud 2. Salim (a freed slave of Abu Hudhaifa) 3. Mu’adh bin Jabal 4. Ubay bin Ka’b. (Sahih Bukhari 6.61.521) Years after Muhammad died, Abu Bakr, the first caliph decided to compile the Quran, fearing it would be lost. Did Abu Bakr consult any one of the 4 men that Muhammad personally chose? NO. Instead Abu Bakr instructed Zaid Ibn Thabit, who was a scribe, to do the job. Did Zaid consult or request help from any one of the 4 men that Muhammad chose? NO. Were the great early Quran teachers UPSET that they were ignored and rejected? YES! They were FURIOUS! They already had their own Quran codices. Yet Zaid ibn Thabit finished compiling the first official Quran without input from the four…. The 2nd caliph, Umar already had doubts about the authenticity of any compiled Qur'an being original, and he admitted much of the Qur'an is lost. He said: “Let no one of you say that he has acquired the entire Quran, for how does he know that it is all? Much of the Quran has been lost, thus let him say, ‘I have acquired of it what is left of the Qur'an” (As-Suyuti, Itqan, part 3, page 72) In Sahih Bukhari 6.61.527 – “Ubayy was the best reciter yet we leave out some of what he recites.” By the time the 3rd caliph, Uthman, came to power, there were many versions floating around. The books of the 4 great teachers and other hafiz had spread throughout the empire and were used widely and gained popularity. Due to this confusion, the 3rd Caliph Uthman instructed Zaid ibn Thabit to EDIT his Quran again, which he had compiled years earlier under Abu Bakr. The purpose was to come up with a standard and final official version for correct recitation. Once that was done, Uthman ordered the burning of the rest of the versions including those of the 4 great teachers personally hand-picked by Muhammad. Sadly, Muhammad was no longer around to disapprove of the recklessness and abuse of power. Abdulla Ibn Masud gave a passionate speech as Uthman’s henchmen were burning his Quran, tearfully declaring that he knew the Quran better than anyone else.. “By Allah other than Whom none has the right to be worshipped! There is no Sura revealed in Allah’s Book but I know at what place it was revealed, and there is no verse revealed in Allah’s Book but I know about whom it was revealed. And if I know that there is somebody who knows Allah’s Book better than I, and he is at a place that camels can reach, I would go to him.” Ibn masud refuse to give up his own Qur'an till death and even taught it in mosques to his followers in far away Baghdad. He rejected the Qur'an compiled by Zaid saying he cannot abandon what he learnt from the prophet himself. I acquired directly from the Messenger of Allah (saw) seventy surahs when Zaid was still a childish youth - must I now forsake what I acquired directly from the Messenger of Allah?” (Ibid., p. 15) LegalWolf Vanessa7 AntiChristian Empiree, Rash4ductluv, BabaHeekmat, aekymbahd, motayoayinde, , Lukuluku69 , hakeemhakeem , abduljabbar4 ,olaalekan , AbuTwins , KayB , Gaskiyamagana Alfarouq ,, drlateef, iamrealdeji ,,honesttalk21 ,iamrealdeji madridguy Explore2xmore Ohyoudidnt ,ThatFairGuy1 Explore2xmore hakeemhakeem ItsReal correctguy101 Qasim6 hayzedibd ahmedio2017 cc: MightySparrow SIRTee15 ANTIlSLAM innotutorial FxMasterz advocatejare TenQ[/i] |
gaskiyamagana:Even more disturbing is the fact that ibn masud is not the only Muhammed's anointed reciter that rejected the Qur'an compiled by Zaid. Ubay also rejected uthman codex and held on to his own version of quran. Muhammed had told his companions to learn Qur'an from 4 people- these include ibn masud and ibn Ubay. Both of them rejected the uthman codex. 4719. It is related from Ibn ‘Abbas that ‘Umar said, “Ubayy was the one of us with the best recitation, yet we leave some of the words of Ubayy. Ubayy said, ‘I took it from the mouth of the Messenger of Allah and WILL NOT LEAVE IT for anything.’ Allah Almighty says, ‘Whenever We abrogate an ayat or cause it to be forgotten, We bring one better than it or equal to it.’ (2:106)” (Aisha Bewley, Sahih Collection of al-Bukhari, Chapter 69. Book of the Virtues of the Qur’an, VIII: The reciters among the Companions of the Prophet) Islamic scholars know that Ubai Ibn Ka’b had a compilation of the Quran that differed from the current version, which was compiled primarily by Zaid Ibn Thabit. Among the differences we know of between Zaid & Ubai’s Qurans, was the fact that Ubai’s Quran had two additional surahs, al-Hafd and al-Khal'. This problem is acknowledged by Umar in the Hadith. In Sahih Bukhari, Vol. VI, #527, Umar noted that, despite the fact that Ubai was called the greatest reciter of the Quran by Muhammad, two of the Surahs in Ubai’s Quran were not put in Zaid’s codex. Sahih Bukhari, Vol. VI, #527 “Narrated Ibn Abbas: ‘Umar said “Ubai was the best of us in the recitation (of the Quran) yet we leave some of what he recites.” (2:106)’” Ubai’s codex of the Quran was the standard version used in Syria before Uthman ordered all manuscripts that did not agree with the one compiled by Zaid et al. to be burned. Many still know Ubai’s surahs today! These surahs have not been lost, they have been REJECTED by the Muslim leaders! According to Surah 3:3-4, these leaders bring a heavy doom on themselves and their followers. Ubai surahs were not abrogated by Allah, they were abrogated by Zaid and those who chose his text. The Quran promises abrogated or forgotten things are replaced by Allah with something similar or better (Surah 2:106). How could this be done after Muhammad has passed away? Zaid et al. should have accepted Ubai’s surahs even if they were only found with Ubai, since they accepted portions found only with Abi Khuzaima Al-Ansari (Bukhari, Vol. VI, #509, #510), and Ubai’s credentials exceeded that of Khuzaima bin Thabit Al-Ansari. As we can see the so called preservation of the Qur'an is intellectual dishonesty. |
gaskiyamagana:TenQ see as this one is fighting the truth. Denying the truth won't make it false. Take this and argue with it .... When informed that Zaid’s text was to receive official status, Ibn Masud reacted indifferently: Abdullah Ibn Masud said, “I recited from the Messenger of Allah (saw) seventy surahs which I had perfected before Zaid Ibn Thabit had embraced Islam.” (The Codices of Ibn Mas'ud and Ubayy Ibn Ka'b, p. 66 – citing Ibn Abi Dawud’s Kitab al-Masahif, p. 17) “I acquired directly from the Messenger of Allah (saw) seventy surahs when Zaid was still a childish youth - must I now forsake what I acquired directly from the Messenger of Allah?” (Ibid., p. 15) |
TenQ:Aisha mutilated it |
Someone should tell me the difference btw these two set of stone worshippers.... Funny enough both insist they are worshiping God and not the stone. One Eledumare the other Allah.
|
Deception of the highest order. Shikenah Glory of God physically dwells in the tabernacle when Israelites used to bow to the temple. That's why it's called holy temple. People get killed when they enter the tabernacle in the temple and become careless. The presence of God in the temple will not tolerate corruption to his holiness. Israelites didn't bow down to the temple but the glory of God and his presence in the temple. So when Israelites see the temple, they know they are looking as a structure filled with the presence of God. Muslims bow down to a black stone that's not holy in anyway. A stone that had been stolen, mutilated and thrown back into the kabba because it was useless to the people who stole it. What U guys do is paganism. Associating stone with God is idolatry and he hates it. Deuteronomy 16 22 and do not erect a sacred stone for worship, for these the Lord your God hates. |
MaxInDHouse:Answer my question. We dealing with new testament here not old testament. What name did Jesus call God when he was dying on the cross. What name of God did Jesus tell his disciples not to swear on during the beatitudes sermon. He told them. not to swear by God's name, what's the name? |
TenQ:Hmm I didn't even consider abubakar's angle. You right, Aisha would not dare pull such move without backing of a powerful person. That's why abubakar refused to consult the best reciters of his time such as ibn mosood to compile the Koran...instead he chose a small boy he could easily manipulate. Ibn mosood was one of the reciters Muhammad recommended for those who wanted to memorise the Koran and already compiled his own Koran when abu ordered the compilation of the Koran. The question is why didn't Abu seek counsel from ibn mosood? The answer is now clear. I'm sure his Koran contain verses of breast feeding adult and stoning of women. Its pertinent to note ibn mosood rejected the uthman codex until his death. He said he will never abandon the Koran he leant from Muhammed himself to embrace that of Zaid who mohammed never rated as a great reciter. |
MaxInDHouse:How did Jesus call God. When Jesus said do not swear by God's name, what name was he referring to? |
MaxInDHouse:Don't U get it. Yorubas don't care if U call ayelala anyhow. It's not abomination. But calling the name of God carelessly in Judaism is blasphemy. |
TenQ:This is brutal. They couldn't reply to the breastfeeding adult rebuttal. So Muhammed actually approved women to breast feed adult men. Wonderful. But TenQ do U actually think goat came in and ate the paper of the adult breastfeeding and stoning of women. Remember it was Aisha who said a goat came in and ate the paper. Nobody to corroborate her story. Do U actually believe that story from Aisha. Remember Aisha was already being accused of adultery and she didn't like the idea of men coming upon her for breastfeeding. So I'm not surprised those Quranic verses were 'eaten by goat' while in her custody. Ohyoudidn't, Explore2xmore, expanse something to ponder on.... What actually happened to the paper of adult breastfeeding and stoning of women in the custody of Aisha? |
MaxInDHouse:Whatever they call them is not my business. The point is to show U ayelala is not the supreme God in Yoruba pantheon. He's likely orisha or whatever.... |
AbuTwins:I hope U know that actual conversation wasnt in koine greek so bringing up Theos or theon is irrelevant. Theos wasnt used in that conversation. Thomas must have said my Adonai! My elohim or Eli or my Yahweh. And these are the names that should not be called in vain. Why is Thomas personalising the name of God in vain? Why is he calling upon God in vain? The phrase 'my God was mentioned more than 125 times in bible. It always have to with prayer, supplication or meditation directed to almighty God, it was never used for exclamation mark. Jesus on the cross cried out 'Eli, Eli'meaning my God, my God....this was a direct communication from Jesus to his Father and not an exclamation mark or sign of grief. No where in the bible is the phrase my God known for exclamation or surprise, but some divinity denials wants to turn logic on his head when Thomas mentioned it. AbuTwins:Thomas never worshiped Allah and he's not an Arab. The Arabic culture and the way Allah is expressed differs from Jewish culture. U don't call the name of God in vain in Jewish culture. AbuTwins:Once again study christology and then we can discuss the hypostasis union of Jesus. AbuTwins:If I show U where Theos was used for God the Father, would U accept Thomas did call Jesus God. because the word theos was used for God over 1000 times in the new testament. Starting with John 3.16- For God so loved the world...the God in the verse is theos. |
MaxInDHouse:Eledumare predates the Yoruba bible and Ajayi crowther. Where do U think Yorubas got the words odu, odumare, osumare.
|
MaxInDHouse:Ayelala is the name of an idol not God. Yoruba call God Olorun or Eledumare. And idol worshippers never forbade anybody to use the name of their deity anyhow. Its even common for them to swear or curse in the name of their deity. Try another trick. Yoruba didn't use the word 'Olorun mi o' as exclamation mark until they extrapolated it from the English language oh my God |
AbuTwins:This is what Thomas said “Ὁ Κύριός μου καὶ ὁ Θεός μου", literally the Lord of me and the God of me. If this is an exclamation mark from the mouth of a Jew, then U living in obvious denial and living in delulu land AbuTwins:Let me even ask U a question. When did we start using oh my God as exclamation mark and what's the etymology of the phrase, which language did it come from? Oh my God originated from the English language. Thomas never spoke English and there's no such exclamation mark in ancient aramaic or hebrew language. What U guys are doing is extrapolation of the modern phrase oh my God into ancient language. There's no evidence such phrase existed during the time of jesus in any language at all. https://www.dictionary.com/e/slang/oh-my-god/
|
MaxInDHouse:Thomas said “Ὁ Κύριός μου καὶ ὁ Θεός μου", literally meaning the Lord of me and the God of me. If this is an exclamation mark coming from the mouth of a Jew, and it not blasphemy then I don't know what else to say to U. Delusion is free. A Muslim here has finally admitted Jesus is divine while a Christian continues to wallow in deliberate self inflicting ignorance. |
AbuTwins:U guys don't get it.... Thomas couldnt have said 'my God' as an expression of shock or exclamation mark. Its blasphemy!!! The 4th commandment clearly states thou shall not call the name of God in vain!!! Exodus 20 7 “You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name. Thomas is a Jew who is well acquainted with mosaic law. He knows its blasphemy to see Jesus and shout 'my God's as expression of shock. If Thomas said My God to Jesus, he actually meant it. |
MaxInDHouse:How can Thomas use God's name as an exclamation mark as U claim when he knows Moses law doesn't allow it. A Jew for that matter. He saw Jesus and he shouted 'my God'as expression of shock!!! Very funny |
Ohyoudidnt:Ohyoudidn't so now admit Jesus has a divine nature. Abi is this not what I'm reading from U. Oh my God what a glorious day to behold. I've always known U are too intelligent not to see the truth when faced with one. TenQ our friend is gradually gravitating towards the truth. Abutwins let me educate U so that U too will see the truth. I apologise if I detail your thread. Forget about bible manuscripts, Jesus is divine- that is the truth. Fellow Muslims, we may argue back and forth on whether Jesus is God. But only a very dishonest Muslim will deny the divinity of Christ, It's just too obvious. Cc Qasim expanse antiChristian don't be left out in this truth seeking revelation. Shalom |
MaxInDHouse:Do not call the name of your God in vain. The 4th commandment. “You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name. |
AbuTwins:U can do nothing!!! I will give u hot if U continue to harp on what I know nothing about. Only a stupid mod will take useless action when we talking about variation of manuscripts in religious book. When we ask questions about the Koran dont U guys come and start quoting the bible? I will haunt u and expose your fraudulent Quran here on nairaland. Besides U have not answered my question. If we Christians had burnt all our manuscripts after production of KJV bible- just like uthman did with the different Koranic translations, how will U know about Johnnie comma? Answer the question. |
AbuTwins:Remove the log in your eyes b4 seeking the pin in another eye. U cannot be talking of variation in biblical manuscripts when U have a BIGGER PROBLEM IN YOUR KORAN. The miracle of the Koran is that it's well preserved right from the time of Muhammed but investigation into this claim shows the Koran was disjointed with multiple translations some of which are permanently lost. Tell me where is the verse of breastfeeding male adults in your Koran today. Where has it gone? 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." Did you see that Breastfeeding Adults was recited in the Quran and suddenly it disappeared? |
Expanse2020:Tell me what did Qur'an say Muslims should do if Allah truly has a son? |
AbuTwins:Its a big lie that the Koran is well preserved either written or memory. Even Muhammed's companions disagreed on the verses of the Koran, that's why uthman was forced to unify the koran. The verse of son of Adam and seven valleys used to be recited during the time of Muhammed but has disappeared from the koran. The verse of female breastfeeding and stoning of women used to recited during the time Muhammed and even enacted as punishment but it's lost and no longer in the Koran. Aisha said a goat came into the house and ate the paper it was written on. Abdullah bin 'Umar reportedly said: "Let none of you say, 'I have memorised the whole of the Qur'an.' How does he know what all of it is? Much of the Qur'an is lost. Let him say instead, 'I have memorised what's left of the Qur'an.'" (Jalal ad-Deen as-Suyuti, al-Itiqan fee 'Uloom al-Qur'an, Cairo: al-Halabi, 1935, vol. 2, p. 25) Ibn Abbas reported ... [Umar said] Allah sent Muhammad (saw) with the Truth and revealed the Holy Book to him, and among what Allah revealed, was the verse of the Rajam (stoning for adultery) and we did recite this verse and understood and memorized it. Allah's Apostle did carry out the punishment of stoning and so did we after him. I am afraid that after a long time has passed, somebody will say, "By Allah, we do not find the verse of the Rajam in Allah's Book" (Sahih al-Bukhari 6830; vol 8, bk 82, no 817) Now the question is where is the verse of stoning for adultery in today's Koran? |
AbuTwins:The problem is uthman burnt the different translation of Koran that existed b4 he became caliphate and approved only that compiled by Zaid. Uthman even burnt the Koran compiled by people Muhammed said are the best of reciters. Ibn mosood refused to accept the uthmanic codice U people have today. He continued to recite his own Koran until his death. The most interesting things is in mosood used to teach and remind Muhammed the Koran. Muhammed praises him as one of the best reciters and told people should learn from ibn mosood. When he died, his Koran was burnt. If we Christians had done what uthman did to the different Korans with our manuscripts. Imagine if king James had ordered all bibles and old testament manuscripts to be burnt after the production of KJV bible. Tell me how will U know about the johanine comma...U tell me. |
AbuTwins:Colossians 2 9 For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, 10 and in Christ you have been brought to fullness. Philipians 2 6 Who, being in very nature[a] God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; 7 rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature[b] of a servant, being made in human likeness. John 1 14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. Do U know more verses on christology. If U demand more, then U will have to explain to me what U understand by the term christology. AbuTwins:Blind Alfa, read the verse well. Jesus disciples said HE KNEW ALL THINGS, not some things. AbuTwins:once again read about christology and we will discuss. In summary this is your answer... Daniel 7 13 “In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a son of man,[a] coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence. 14 He was given authority, glory and sovereign power; all nations and peoples of every language worshiped him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away, and his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed. Now tell me who is called the son of man in the new testament? AbuTwins:Based on psalm 139.7 I quote, Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? Do U agree the holy spirit is omnipresent? Let's s tart from there. AbuTwins:Have U heard of spirit of Jesus? 1 Peter 1 Concerning this salvation, the prophets, who spoke of the grace that was to come to you, searched intently and with the greatest care, 11 trying to find out the time and circumstances to which the Spirit of Christ in them was pointing when he predicted the sufferings of the Messiah and the glories that would follow. This verse shows prophets in the old testament had the spirit of Christ in them. The old testament called the spirit in the prophets spirit of God. Now what does that tell U? AbuTwins:Pls do, let's put an end to this trinity ignorance once and for all. The first thing that will shock u with Nicene creed is different from the nonsense trinity definition you Muslims quote up and down. |
AbuTwins:When God established the kingdom of Israel, he gave them a pragmatic constitution for their own administration and governance. The law of Moses wasn't a divine law. They are not God's own law but laws given by God to the children of Israel. Israel was a new nation and the people just reintroduced to God during the time of Moses, they needed time to know him and understand him fully b4 they could be commanded to follow his divine laws. The knowledge of God is a progressive revelation and not instant. Israel needed time to know who God is before being inducted fully into his divine jurisprudence, until then they were meant to follow a working constitution. Giving divine laws ab initio will be too much for the Israelites and will definitely struggle to keep such commandments. Things like polygamy and divorce are not divine laws as Jesus Christ who is God in flesh expressly condemned it. Christians are not bound to such laws and under no obligation to defend it. Law of Moses is now obsolete and made irrelevant even to the modern nation of Israel. |
Aemmyjah:This is Jesus saying he is pre-existing b4 creation. He existed b4 becoming human. He existed b4 David. This is evidence Jesus is divine. |
AbuTwins:Regarding Jesus, first go and learn about christology then we can discuss earthly Jesus who is actually God in flesh and NOT physically God. Jesus has a human soul and is fully human. He wasn't pretending to be human. However Jesus disciples confirmed Jesus Christ knew all things despite being human. John 29 Then Jesus’ disciples said, “Now you are speaking clearly and without figures of speech. 30 Now we can see that you know all things and that you do not even need to have anyone ask you questions. This makes us believe that you came from God.” As for the holy spirit, Jesus never said the spirit of God doesn't know the hour. Did he? The spirit of God is inseparable from God just like his soul. The spirit of God is the manifestation God's process, thoughts and actions. That's why David said in psalm 139.7 Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? This shows the holy spirit is omnipresent just as God, so why would the spirit not be omniscient? |
