Preface:

In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious Most Merciful, All praise be to Allah and His peaceand Blessings be on His Servant and Messenger Mohammad, his progeny, his

companions and all other prophets and righteous servants of Allah. Afterward.

While surfing Scribd books, I stumbled upon a book that deals with apparent

contradictions in Quran. The posting is done by Iris89 and is based on the research done

by one Syed Kamran Mirza, a Muslim sounding name.

In no way it is clear that it is a real Muslim or a sort of pen name. The allegations and the

inference drawn, shows that neither Iris89 or Kamran Mirza have real knowledge about

Islam or Quranic teachings.

However there is one merit of the presentation, that he has quoted references of Quranic

verses from three well known translations. That is a real help and shows sincerity.

However this sincerity is missing, when he tries to comment on the inference drawn fromthese translations.

The writer has acknowledged that he does not know Arabic, so he has only relied upon

the translations.

The so called contradictions in Quran come in these categories:

1. Based on misunderstanding.

2. Based on ignorance.

3. Based on Malice (By using words like moon god before Allah).

4. Scientific facts mentioned in Quran.

Before I comment on every one of these apparent contradictions, I would like to point out

a few points, which will help us in our discussions.

A. Basic purpose of Revelations: The books or revelation are send by God to Hisprophets for guidance of human kind. The revelation is not sent to teach humans science,

mathematics or any such things.

B. What is Revelation: The words which are transmitted to the prophets of God are the

real revelations. These words which are uttered by the prophets in their own language are

revelations.


4/55

C. Translations of Scriptures into other language is not revelation per see: If some

one translates the uttered words of prophets into another language, then this translation is

not same as revelation. It may faithfully convey the original message, but it cannot takethe place of the words which were revealed to the prophets.

Each language has its own peculiarities, the words have different shade of meanings, thetranslators might choose one shade of meaning, which might seem true at some stage and

seem out of focus due to passage of time.

D. The so called scientific verses in Quran and other scriptures: When God refers to

some phenomenon of nature in Quran and in other scriptures, the purpose is to prove His

Power, Wisdom and Mercy and ask humankind to reflect on these Natural phenomenon

as a means to remembrance of God.

Most of revelations were sent when the science was not that much developed. Since the

source of Revelation was God and His knowledge supercedes past, present and future, so

God at no stage would tell a lie.

But how to express an Idea which is much advanced in age to the people who are notdeveloped so much? Therein lies the importance of Original Words Used by God in

Sending Revelations.

God uses such words, so that they never go out of age. With changing human knowledgedifferent shades of meanings of the original words come into force.

That is why the translations go out of age and contain error and not the OriginalRevelation.

E. Difference Between Quran and Other Scriptures: The beauty of Quran is that it ispreserved in its original Arabic and in its original beauty. Other Scriptures are available

in translated forms or comments from other hands have entered into the main text.

In case of Quran when any difficulty arises, we go back to Original Arabic text and

contemplate on the different meaning of the Original Arabic Words used, we can

therefore find the shade which satisfies observed facts.

Even though that sense was not very apparent to the people in whose age Quran was

revealed.

But in case of other scriptures, we are left with human translations and human

interpolation into the text, and the originals have been lost. Therefore we are unable to

sort out the problem and have to do lot of mental gymnastic to remove the contradictions.


5/55

F. So called Contradictions in Quran can be resolved and explained and not in

Bible: Preservation of Quran in Original Arabic solves these so called contradiction,

whereas in the case of Bible they persist, because we have no access to the originalrevelation from God.

With these opening words, I give here my Point-By Point answer to the cases mentionedin the above booklet. I have presented it in Tabular Form, giving full text in one column

and my comments in another column.

Note: My name is MUQ in these answers.

40:

Some see an error or contradiction in these scriptures relatedto the amount of time Jesus (Yeshua) was in the grave, but

there is NONE. The true facts are:

"Yes, it does seem that way. We must remember that theBible was written in other languages by cultures far

removed from ours. Most alleged contradictions stem froma misunderstanding of certain terms and phrases. For

example, Jesus predicted that He would be in the grave for

"three days and three nights"(Matt.12:40). When we

read the passion narratives, we see that He was crucified lateFriday afternoon and that He rose from the dead, early on

Sunday morning. It is impossible to get three days and three

nights out of this, and I have seen many atheists refer toJesus' prophecy as a "blatant error which completely

destroys the credibility of the Bible."[

2. Numerical Contradictions:

Contradiction (By Iris 89) Explanation / Comments (By MUQ

NUMERICAL CONTRADICTIONS

There are many numerical contradictions in the Quran. CanGod make so much error in doing simple calculations?How many days did it take to create Heavens and Earth ?

Quran 7: 54 Your guardian-Lord is Allah who created the

heavens and earth in Six DaysQuran 10: 3 Verily your Lord is Allah, who created the

heavens and earth in Six Days

Quran 11:7 He it is Who created the heavens and earth inSix Days Quran-25:29: He Who created the heavens and

earth and all that is between, in Six Days

The above verses clearly state that God created the heaven

and Allah created the heaven and the Earth in 6 days. But

the verses below stated-

Quran 41: 9 Is it that ye deny Him who created the earth in

Two Days ?

Quran 41: 10 He set on the (earth) Mountains standing firmhigh above it, and bestowed blessing on the earth, and

measured therein all things to give them nourishment in due

proportion, in FOUR DAYS...

Quran 41: 12 So He completed them (heavens) as sevenfirmaments in Two days and

...Now do the math: 2(for earth) + 4(for nourishment) + 2 (for

heavens) = 8 days; and not 6 days

1. I think this is a pur

misunderstanding or misinterpretatioof Quranic verses 41:9-12.

2. Does Quran say that after one stag

was finished, then the other started

Why cant some stages be run iParallel?

3. The shaping of earth can continuwith the forming of heavens, so indee

there is no numerical contradiction a

all.

4. By the way Arabic Word used i

AYYAM, which literally means day

and not day. So it is an indefinitperiod, which could be thousands o

even millions of years.

5. The real problem is in genesis ch.1

where after every day, night i

mentioned , giving the notion of ou

24 hours day.

Allah Knows Best.

3. Numerical Contradictions (Inheritance Portions):


Similar mistakes you can see in the verse: Quran 4: 11 - 12,and Quran 4: 176 in inheritance law. In these verses one cansee the total property after adding all distributed parties

adds up more than the available property, i.e., totals become

more than 1 which are: 1.125 and 1.25. How come ? A gross

mathematical errors, is not it ?

1. This is based on purmisunderstanding and ignorance oIslamic inheritance law.

2. I have dealt it separately in detai

which will show how ignorant thestwo people are, one who writes and th

other who quotes him withou

thinking.

Allah Knows Best


10/55

4. Numerical Contradictions ( Allah s Days)


Allah's Days Equal to 1000 Years or 50,000 Years?

Quran 22: 47 A day in the sight of the Lord is like athousand years of your reckoning.Quran-32:5: To Him, on a Day, the space whereof will be a

thousands years of your reckoning

Quran 70: 4 The angels and the spirit ascend unto him in a

day the measure whereof is Fifty thousands years.

So, which one is it? Is the day of Allah equal to 1,000 earth

years or 50,000 earth years?

1. This is again a tota

misunderstanding, 22:47 & 32: 5 showa general criterion.

2. 70:4 shows the specific case of th

day of Judgment, where is th

supposed contradiction?

3. By the way these figures of 1,00

and 50,000 are not the real countsThey represent very large period o

time.

4. Time is a relative term (and I thin

Theory of Relativity also says sam

thing), our counting of days and year

could be different from Allahs dayswho is eternal.

Allah Knows Best.

5. Creation of Heavens and Earths, which was created First?


CREATION OF THE HEAVEN AND EARTH

Which one was created first? As you will see in the versesbelow,

Allah at one time says that Earth was created first and

another time he says that the Heaven was created first.

Quran 2: 29 It is He who hath created for you all things that

are on Earth; THEN He turned to the Heaven and madethem into seven firmaments (Skies)....

Quran 79: 27 - 30 Are you the harder to create, or is the

heaven that He built? He raised the height thereof andordered it; and He has made dark the night thereof,

and He brought forth the morning thereof. And after that,

He spread (flattened) the earth

Now, does it match modern science? Do you believe that,

Earth was created first, after that, God created Heaven?

Modern science tells us that? Or How come SEVENfirmaments (layers)?

Modern science tells us that, actually there is no such thing

Sky is no "roof" over us. It is only a space with no knownboundary at all. These verses simply reinforce the ancient

idea of ROOF over us which is called SKY, is it not so?How funny!

Your Friend in Christ Iris89 -

1. The apparent contradiction i

because of translation of Arabic worTHUMMA, which is generally used aThereafter, but it is not always use

to denote sequential events.

2. Examples of such usages in Quraare numerous and Arabic speakin

people understand these subtleties. S

there is no contradiction here.

3. Now coming to the word heavens

the actual Arabic word used iSAMAA., which ahs various shade

of meanings. It is not always used fo

skies or heavens, in Arabic idiom, an

thing above earth is SAMAA

4. That is why in various places i

Quran, Allah tells that he sends Watefrom Skies or heavens, that does no

mean in the literal sense.

5. Now coming to number 7, it is noused in literal sense. In Arabic idiom

this word is used to show plurality oindeterminate numbers. So th

heavens could be many. Our Eart

atmosphere could be one sky, then ou

solar system, then our own galaxy anso on.

6. The verses of Quran therefore dnot contradict Modern science at all, i

fact they match perfectly.

Allah Knows Best.

6. Sun Set and Sun Rise


This part consist of: 3- Sun-set and Sun-rise and 4- A

Resting Place For Sun!?

SUN-SET AND SUN-RISE

Koran teaches us that the Sun sets in a muddy spring:

Quran 18: 86 Till, when he (the traveler Zul-qarnain)

reached the setting-place of the Sun, he found it going down

into a muddy spring...Quran 18: 90 Till, when he reached the rising-place of the

Sun, he found it rising on a people for whom We had

appointed no shelter from it.

Serious scientific errors here! Firstly, it is scientifically

accepted fact that, the Sun never go down in a muddy

spring. Secondly, this seems to presuppose a FLATEarth, otherwise how can there be an extreme point in the

West or in the East?

A sunrise there would be basically just the same as at any

other place on this earth, at land or sea. It would still look as

if it is setting "far away".

It does say, that he reached THE PLACE where the Sun sets

and in his second Journey the place where it rises.

1. This allegation is again based o

misinformation, misunderstanding omalice.

2. Sun may not rise or not set, but in

human idiom it is always refereed a

such. You open any Almanac or anNews Paper, it mentions time of Su

Rise and Sun Set. I do not know an

one complaining to these people as twhy they publish such non Scientifi

things in this modern age?

3. Now coming to the story of Zul

Qarnain, it is mentioned that he saw

the sun setting in murky water. Thi

information is added so that if any onwants to find out or trace the journey

in western direction it would terminat

at a place where delta is situated. Anin the eastern most end, it woul

terminate in an area which wa

populated by a very unciviliz

people.

4. These checklists were used bMuslim scholars to identify who i

meant by Zul-Qarnain (More on that a

another place).

7. Resting Place for Sun:


A RESTING PLACE FOR SUN!?

Quran 36: 38 And the sun runneth on unto a resting placefor him. That is the measuring of the Mighty, the Wise.

Quran 36: 39 And for the moon We have appointed

mansions till she return like an old shriveled palm leaf.

Quran 36: 40 It is not for Sun to overtake the moon, nordoth the night outstrip the day. They float each in an orbit.

Allah is indeed a big scientist. Where is sun and where ismoon situated? Can anybody tell me how they could

collide/meet/overtake each other?

Are the sun and the moon neighbors to each other? I have

the answer for this error:

Ancient Allah saw (bare eye observations) sun and moontraveling from east to west seemingly in the same Sky area

or same path, without colliding, causing day and night etc.

Allah hardly could imagine that all these phenomena aresimply due to Earth's rotation and NOT by Sun's rotation.

Sun is stationary for Earth, because earth is stuck in the

sun's Gravity, like we are stuck in earth's gravity. Allahnever says any where in the whole Quran that, EARTH

ROTATES. Perhaps Allah could not feel earth's rotation.

A resting place for sun WAS CONFIRMED BY HADITHS?

Sahih Bukhari Volume 4, Book 54, Number 421

Sahih Bukhari Hadiths: Abzur Ghifari (ra) narrated: one dayProphet Mohammad (pbuh) asked me, "Abzar do you know

after setting where does Sun go?"

I replied, I do not know, only Allah's apostle can say better.

Then Prophet (SA) replied, "After setting, the sun remains

prostrated under Allah's Aro'sh and waits for Allah'scommand for rising again in the East. Day will come when

sun will not get permission to rise again and Qeyamot will

fall upon Earth".

Can anybody tell me what is it? It was the superstitious

belief of ancient people reflected in the Quran and Hadiths

1. This allegation is again based o

malice and misunderstanding.

2. The writer is very content to tal

about sun and moon orbits and th

distances between the two.

3. He has forgotten, when these orbit

and distances were calculated an

what were the theories running aroun1400 years ago. The Quran is for a

ages, and what it says is very true.

4. Sun cannot catch moon and nigh

cannot outstrip the day. These ar

facts which are true today and wer

true at every age.

5. Then sun and whole solar system i

moving at a marvelous speed, where will end? Does any of our so calle

scientists know or it will go on goin

for ever and ever? Allah says that Su

and Moon and every things wiremain only for a time which is fixe

by Allah. So they all are moving ttheir resting place.

6. The Hadith of Bukhari is i

allegorical language and beyond ouliteral understanding. Every Creatur

does communicate to Allah, in a wa

we do not know. So we cannot sawith our limited scientific knowledg

that sun and moon do not talk or liste

to the commands of their Creator.

7. Some thing which we canno

understand today or have no means t

confirm does not necessarily mean thait is wrong. Have we reached th

summit of scientific knowledge an

8. Purpose of Creation of Stars:


WHY OLD MIDDLE EASTERN CELESTIAL MOONGOD, "ALLAH," CREATED STARS!

Quran gives us further scientific knowledge by telling us

that the stars were created by Allah as missiles to throw at

the devils:

Quran 67: 5 And We have (from of old) adorned the lowest

heaven (sky) with lamps, and We have made such (Lampsas) missiles to drive away Satans...

Quran 37: 6-8 We have indeed decorated the lower heaven

(sky) with beauty (in) the stars, (for beauty) and for guardagainst all obstinate rebellious Satan. So they should not

strain their ears in the direction of the Exalted Assembly but

be cast away from every side.

Thus, the stars are nothing but missiles to throw at devils so

that they may not eavesdrop on the heavenly council. Once

again we find how Allah was high on his superstitiousweirdness.

1. Where does Quran say, that onlpurpose of Creation of Stars is to bused as missiles for devils?

2. It says that some are used for tha

purpose, and there is nothing by whicwe can deny it.

3. How the devils reach sky and try tlisten there are the realms which w

have not learned so far.

4. So we in no way can say that Quran

is speaking a non scientific thing.

Allah Knows Best.

9. Sky / Heavens a roof or canopy over the earth:


IS SKY/HEAVEN A ROOF OR CANOPY OVER THEEARTH?

Quran 21: 32 And We have made the sky a roof withheld

(from them). Yet they turn away from its portents.

Quran 31: 10 He hath created the heavens (Skies) withoutsupports (pillars) that ye can see, and hath cast into the earth

firm Mountains/Hills, so that it quake not with you; and He

hath dispersed...Quran 2: 22: Who has made the earth your couch, And the

heavens (Sky) your canopy Modern science tells us- whole

thing around the earth is space and there is no boundaryeven if we go Billions of light years away in all directions.

Questions are:

When there is no sky above us then how in the world, it

needs pillars for support? Do we really have a roof above

us? Is there a canopy above the Earth? Is there anythingcalled above or beneath us?

Are mountains there to prevent Earth from shaking? Give

me a break!

Once again Allah considered sky as roof over the Earth,which will broke/shattered during dooms day

Quran 78: 19 And the heavens (sky) Shall be broken

(opened) as if there were doors opens...

Quran 82: 1 When the Sky is cleft asunderQuran 69: 16 And the sky will be Rent asunder, for it will

That day be flimsy (soft)

Quran 81: 2 When the stars fall, losing their luster.

Yousuf Ali comments in his Tafsir: beautiful blue-sky

overhead (which we take for granted in sunshine) will beshattered to pieces. Modern science tells us that there is no

such thing as roof/sky or any canopy over the Earth; rather

all around Earth is a limitless space. Only Allah knows what

will break/shatter or will get soft/flimsy or how doors willopen , there is no walls, where from doors will come? In

some Ayats Allah threatened kafirs by saying: "I (Allah) will

1. As I mentioned earlier, the Arabiword SAMAA has different shades omeanings. It is spoken as anythin

above the earth.

2. The sky does seem to our nakeeyes as a sheet or canopy over ou

heads under which every thing i

covered.

3. Quran says that Allah has made thi

sky on pillars which we do not see anit is true. Every thing in universe i

held together by the force of gravity,

thing which we cannot see.

4. The purpose of mountains is t

stabilize the earth, so that it does no

shake continuously due to molten masbelow and that is true scientifically.

5. Kafirs asking for prophet to let

portion of sky fall on them was challenge to bring some natura

calamity to them. A meteor falling oearth from outer space is indeed

portion of sky falling on earth!!

6. On the last day, how the gates oskies will open and angels will descen

is a thing we do not perceive now, bu

we will see with our own eyes whethat day come. So there is nothin

against science in these descriptions.

7. Al the most we can say, that

speaks of some things which we ar

not able to verify yet, with our meage

scientific knowledge.

Allah Knows best.

10. DOES SUN ROTATE AROUND THE EARTH?


10. DOES SUN ROTATE AROUND THE EARTH?

Quran 31: 29 Seest thou not that Allah merges Night intoDay and He merges Day into Night; That He has subjected

the sun and moon (to His law), each running its course for a

term (time) appointed.

Quran 21: 33 It is He who created The Night and Day, Andthe Sun and Moon; each of them Swim (float) along in its

own course.

Ayats mentioned above could be found over and over again

and again almost in every pages of Quran. Because, Old

middle eastern celestial Moon god, "Allah," standingin the open Arab desert saw very well that, every morning

SUN is rising from the East and gradually (appointed time

or fixed time) setting to the West, and as a result, day and

night follows. Old middle eastern celestial Moon god,"Allah," truly mentioned this wrong knowledge (sun

moving) of pre-historic people.

Every time Old middle eastern celestial Moon god, "Allah,"

mentioned Sun & Moon, He mentioned day & night, as if it

is due to sun's movement day and night follows.

But surprisingly, all the hypocrite Mullahs giving false

credit to Old middle eastern celestial Moon god, "Allah," bysaying: look Quran told about sun's movement 1400 years

ago which modern science only found out now. In real

world, sun takes 225 millions of years to make just one

complete circle through the solar Universe.

And obviously this movement of sun has nothing to do with

DAY & NIGHT of the earth. Actually, Sun is stationary inrelation to the Earth, because the Earth is stuck to the giant

gravitation force of the Sun, and the Earth also moves along

with the Sun wherever it goes, just the way we are stuck tothe Earth's gravitation force and do not feel its movement at

all.

Why then, Old middle eastern celestial Moon god, "Allah,"was telling the Sun's movement again and again. I have

already mentioned above, why Old middle eastern

1. Use of the word moon god for Alla

shows the extreme malice which thwriter has towards the Arabic WorAllah, which is used by All Arab

(Including Arab Jews and Christians

to denote Unique Creator an

Sustainer of the Universe.

2. The word Allah is used extensivel

in Arabic Translations of Bible, stithis man has extreme malice towar

this word and uses this in derogator

way. How can one expect any fairnesand justice from such an uncouth man

3. Now movement of sun is clear t

every one on this earth and the termSun Rise and Sun Set are commo

usage in every language and ever

country of the world, there is nothinunusual if these are used in Quran.

4. The allegation that Quran says tha

sun moves around the earth, is in hiown imaginations. Quran never say

that.

5. In fact it says that sun and moon

earth and stars, night and day all ar

moving in their own orbits. This was new scientific fact mentioned 140

years ago and is still true today!!

6. Yes not very far ago, it was believe

that sun is stationary and earth move

around the sun and they were sayinthat Quran by saying that sun is als

moving is against Modern Science

But Quran remained the same an

Modern Science changed thestance and found that sun is movin

and spinning at the same time.


19/55

celestial Moon god, "Allah," was hysteric about the Sun's

movements. Now dishonest Mullahs are claiming sciencehere. I wonder, why Old middle eastern celestial Moon

god, "Allah," has to mentioned about the Sun's 225 millions

year journey (which is even unimaginable to mankind) to

tell about day and night? What relation Sun's movement haswith the day and night?

7. Yet the writer has temerity to laallegation against holy Quran.

Allah Knows Best.

11. DOES EARTH SPREAD OUT LIKE CARPET (FLAT)?


11. DOES EARTH SPREAD OUT LIKE CARPET(FLAT)?

Quran 15: 19 And the earth We have spread out (like a

carpet); set thereon Mountains firm and immovable;Quran 78: 6-7 Have We not made the earth as a wide

expanse, And the mountains as pegs (anchor)?

Allah was sure that earth is flat like a carpet and mountains

are there to anchor the earth so that earth does not shake

with us. Allah is really merciful scientist.Your Friend in Christ Iris89 -

1. The word FLAT is inserted by thman himself and Quran never says tha

earth is flat.

2. A carpet can be spread on a verlarge circular object with out an

problem.

3. So the meaning of Quran is tha

earth is like as a carpet to us, which i

flat so we can walk on it. Thmountains keep it is place and it doe

not shake. There is nothin

unscientific about it.

12. IS MAN CREATED FROM CLOTTED BLOOD?


12. IS MAN CREATED FROM CLOTTED BLOOD?

Quran-23:14: Then fashioned We the drop (semen) a CLOTOF CONGEALED BLOOD then fashioned We the Clot a

little lump (foetus), fashioned We the little lump into bones,

then clothed the bones with flesh, and then produced it

another creation. So blessed be Allah, the Best of Creators. (

Bengali translated Quran said:

"Zamaa't Raokto theeke Manoosh banieesi" And this Ayathas been repeated again and again throughout the Quran )

Quran-75:38: Then he becomes a CLOT; then (Allah)

shaped and fashioned...Quran 96: 2 Created man, out of amere clot of congealed blood

There are serious scientific problems here:

Blood clot cannot grow into anything. This idea also camefrom the Greek. Aristotle erroneously believed that, humans

are originated from the action of male semen upon female

menstrual blood, which is absolutely an incorrectassumption.

Quran's assertion on Clot (alaqa) is completely wrong about

human development, since there is absolutely no stageduring which the embryo consists of a clot. The only

situation in which an embryo might appear like a clot isduring a miscarriage, in which case the clotted blood that is

seen to emerge (much of which comes from mother) is

solidified and by definition no longer alive. Therefore, if

ever an embryo appeared to look like a clot it would neverdevelop any further into a human; it would be a dead mass

of bloody miscarrying flesh.

Since Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) had some thirteen wives

it is entirely possible that he would be very familiar with

miscarriages.

Modern science tells us that, the formation of human

embryo is a seamless continuation from conception to birth;

hence there are no hard- and- fast boundaries of stages asQuran describes. Quran describes 4 stages, which matches

exactly with Gaelic description of development of human

1. In fact here lies the beauty o

retaining the Original Arabic Revealeword. The word used in Quran iALAQA, it has three shades o

meaning, like a blood clot, some thin

which clings and a Leech. If an

shade of meaning satisfies oufindings, we cannot say that Quran i

wrong.

2. If some commentators took

particular sense of meaning at som

time and later it was shown that it wanot correct, then the fault is o

translators and not of Quran.

3. The best authority on HumaEmbryology in our times is Prof. Keit

Moore, who has confirmed tha

Quranic description of development ohuman fetus is better and easier tha

the stages used in books o

embryology.

4. In the earliest stages of pregnancy

human embryo looks like a tiny LeecLike Substance, which Clings to th

womb of Mother and has an oute

appearance of a clot of blood!!

5. Therefore all the meanings o

Arabic word ALAQA are indee

applicable to the human embryo!Leech Like: in Actual shape, Clinging

to the wall of womb, Clot of Blood: i

outer appearance.

6. Then Quran says that We create

humans from NUTFAH, a very sma

portion of Semen, which is also true!!

7. So the Quranic version of huma

embryo (which was proved wrong by modern science).

Creation of bones and clothing of bones with flesh:According to modern embryologists including Prof. Moore,

the tissue from which bone originates, known as mesoderm,

is the same tissue as that from which muscle (flesh)

develops. Thus bone and muscles begin to developsimultaneously, rather than sequentially (as the Quran is

telling us). Moreover, most of the muscle tissue that wehumans have is laid down before birth, but bones continue

to develop and calcify (strengthen with calcium) right into

one's teenage years. So it would be more accurate if the

Quran had said that muscles started to develop at the sametime as bones, but completed their development earlier. The

idea that bones are clothed with flesh is not only

scientifically completely wrong/false, but was directlycopied from the ancient Greek doctor Galen's hypothesis.

Also, the idea of saying: "made into bones and clothed thebones with muscle" came from the technique of makinganimal statue out of rod and cement or mud. People

usually make the skeleton (out of rod or stick) first and, then

cover it up with cement or mud. This is scarcely a scientific

description of embryonic development. It is rather adescription of an unlettered man.

embryo development is in actua

confirmation of science oEmbryology, which is not more tha

few decade old.

8. Then this foul mouthed person hareferred to inference drawn by th

prophet from miscarriages of hwives, forgetting completely that th

First Verse Revealed to Prophet a

Makkah did mention mans creatio

from ALAQ. 95:1. At that timprophet had only one wife, who wa

15 years older than him. Most o

verses using word ALAQA werrevealed in Makkah, when prophet ha

but one wife.

9. Allegations like these speak the tru

intention of these fellows and show

that they lack balanced personality an

approach which is very essential whewe discuss such items.

13. IS RELIGION COMPULSIVE OR IS IT NOT?


13. IS RELIGION COMPULSIVE OR IS IT NOT?

Quran 02: 256 There is no Compulsion in religion....

OR

Quran 9: 29 Fight those who do not profess the truefaith(Islam) till they pay the poll tax (jiziya) with the hand

of humility.

Quran 9: 5 Then, when the sacred months have passed, slaythe idolaters wherever ye find them and take them captive,

and besiege them and prepare for them each ambush....

Quran 47: 4 When you meet the unbelievers in the Jihadstrike off their heads....

Quran 2: 191 And slay (kill) them wherever ye catch them,

and turn them out from where they have turned you out

such is the reward of those who suppress faith.Quran 8: 65 O Apostle ! rouse the believers to the fight

of....unbelievers.

Very often apologetics claim that, Islam is a religion of

peace and there is no compulsion. Yet punishment of an

apostate in Islam is, of course, death penalty.

In very many Ayats Allah claimed that, He has given this

Quran in the easy and clear language so that, it will not bedifficult to understand by the ordinary Arabs.

Quran 44: 58 Verily, We have made This Quran easy in the

tongue, in order that they may give heed.

No matter which translated Quran we read, the Quranic

materials remain the same to us and every sentence is self

explanatory and it does not take a rocket scientist tocomprehend what is the message Allah wanted to transmit

for Arabs. Yet, bigot Mullahs will always blame translators

for Quranic contradictions/errors/inconsistencies etc. andwill try to find lame excuses to cover up Allah's ignorance.

Comments:

The Holy Qur'an is full of inaccuracies, contradictions,inconsistencies, redundancies, no chronology or chapters,

grammatical errors, etc. One can find hundreds of

1. This is again a misunderstandinwhich is based on eithe

misinformation, misunderstanding o

pure malice. Seeing the past behavio

of this uncouth fellow, we can nevedisregard the element of malice.

2. The Quran 2:256 says that let ther be no compulsion in religion. Th

inference is that no force should b

used to compel any one to accepIslam. And that matches with th

context of this verse.

3. It does not mean that no force woulbe or could be used once some on

accepts Islam.

4. Punishment for Apostasy, o

punishment for certain crimes,

fighting against foes of Internal o

External enemies of Islam, does nonegate 2:256.

5. At no place Quran says that us

force to compel people to accep

Islam.

6. Quran being easy to understand

does not mean that there is no need o

any Scholar and every one can becomexpert or scholar of Quran just b

reading Arabic verses or the

translation in any language.

7. The basic meaning and basi

teachings of Quran , like Oneness o

God, Prophet hood, coming of the daof judgment and similar things ar

apparent to any one who reads Quran

contradictions/errors/inconsistencies in the Holy Quran. The

abovementioned Ayats are just selected samples from theQuran. But still it is a miracle to those who are blindfolded

bigots.

[source - Syed Kamran Mirza ]

But the deep meaning an

contemplation are not available tevery one. So this is

misunderstanding of Quranic verse.

substantiate any of his allegationagainst Quran

14. Some More self Claimed Errors is Quran


More Errors in the Quran - Section 1

But first a statement by Quranic scholar, Syed KamranMirza.

Are these any better? Look, my whole point of this is that I

am tired of hearing how EVERY OTHER religious book out

there is "wrong and has lies but the Quran is perfect" I seethat no one stepped up to defend some of the other things

that I posted.....like this (these aren't errors, I'll get back to

those in a minute):

1. "Do not let non-Muslims enter mosques. They will go to

hell." ( Repentance: 17 )2. "O ye who believe! The non-Muslims are unclean. So let

them not come near the Inviolable Place of Worship."

(Repentance: 2)

3. "O ye who believe! Murder those of the disbelievers ....and let them find harshness in you." (Repentance: 123)

4. "Humiliate the non-Muslims to such an extent that they

surrender and pay tribute." (Repentance: 29)5. "O believers, do not treat your fathers and brothers as

your friends, if they prefer unbelief to belief, whosoever of

you takes them for friends, they are evildoers."

(Repentance: 20)6. "Certainly, God is an enemy to the unbelievers." ( The

Cow: 90 )7. "God has cursed the unbelievers, and prepared for them a

blazing hell." ( The Confederates 60 )

8. "Let not the believers take the unbelievers for friends....

whoso does that belongs not to God." (The House of Imram:60)

9. "O believers, do not make friends with the Jews and

Christians; ..whoso of you makes them his friend is one ofthem." (The Table: 55)

10. "The believers indeed are brothers." ( Apartments: 10 )

11. "Moslems are hard against the unbelievers, merciful toone another." (Victory: 25)

[[Note, exact quotes from 3 Qurans are being added to

writings of Quranic scholar, Syed Kamran Mirza, to assist

all in understanding his research product]]

What are some of those about? You aren't a good Muslim if

Here the writer goes again on witc

hunt, mistranslating anmisinterpreting verses of Quran, I wiprovide brief answers to each of them.

1. This is mistranslation of verse 9:17

the correct translation (Abdullah YousAli is) It is not such as join gods wit

God to Visit or maintain the mosque

of God, while they witness againstheir own souls to infidelityth

works of such bear no fruits in fir

they shall dwelt

Quran mentions a trait for people wh

do not worship true God, how can the

maintain or take care of Mosques oGod? Seeing in the context. This vers

is also referring to the Holy Mosque o

Makkah.

2 9:28 is about prohibiting No

Muslims to enter the Grand Mosque a

Makkah. There is nothing wrong ithat if a place be reserved for Muslim

only. That place is not a Tourist Spoat all.

3. Verse 9:123 is again a mistranslatio

it reads O ye who believe! Fight thunbelievers who gird about you and le

them find firmness in you

Changing the word Fight wit

Murder changes the whole meanin

and effect of the verse.

4. Verse 9:29 The translation is Figh

those who believe not.until they pa

Jizya with willing submission and feethemselves subdued


26/55

you are friends with a Christian? If that is the case, how am

I suppose to trust what someone is saying to me if I don'tbelieve in their religion?

It's kind of hard to "follow" something when it's telling me

to "murder those of the disbelievers"Oh well, like I said at the beginning of this......are these any

better? I know a couple of them are the same but it's from adifferent place.

5. Verse 5:20 The Translation is O

you who believe, take not for you protectors your fathers and yo

brothers if they love infidelity abov

faith.

The Arabic World AULIA does no

negate common friendship, but takinthem as your protectors, there is

world of difference between the tw

meanings.

6. God is an enemy of unbeliever

there is nothing wrong in that!

7. God has cursed the unbelievers an

prepared for them hell fire, there nothing wrong in that either fromtheological point of view.

8. Here again the negation is to tak

unbelievers as your protectors and thais certainly OK.

9. Here also Allah warns Muslims noto take Jews and Christians as thei

protectors, because in the end they ar

protectors of each other. This is verprudent advice to Muslims and from

the day Muslims have ignored thi

advice, they have been betrayerepeatedly by Jews and Christians.

10 & 11. There is nothing wrong i

these verses either.

In dealings with Non Muslims, ther

are tow categories, first type is onewho do not do any harm to Muslim

and do not fight with them. With them

Muslims are advised to be kind anJust.

However there is another type of No

Muslims, who fight and taunt and plaagainst Muslim and their countrie


27/55

Against these Non Muslims, w

should be hard, firm and ready to repetheir designs. Quran 60:7 & 8 provid

clear guidelines in these cases.

14 A. Self Claimed errors in Quran


Error in the Quran

This article was written in answer to a statement that thebible contains error whereas the Quran, the Muslim holybook, does not. It highlights ten of the more difficult to

explain contradictions within the Quran and will hopefully

help get some of our Muslim friends thinking, if you are a

Muslim I invite you to explain these contradictions andassure you that your refutations will be made public if this

is what you require.

Please note however that I will not accept simple statements

such as "you are wrong" as fact, answers must be supported

by either convincing evidence or at least by a logicalargument.

Yes that is what I am trying to do, s

far I have not found any contradictioin Quran which is a real contradiction

The so called contradictions are due t

misunderstanding and mis

interpretations and some are due tmalice on the part of writer.

Allah Knows Best.

15 The Samaritan that never was:


The Samaritan that never was:

Surah 20:85-87 and Sura 20:95-97 state that the calf

worshipped by the Israelites

was made by a Samaritan but neither the country of Samaria

(where Samaritans come from) nor the term Samaritanexisted during this time (the time of the Exodus) and so it is

historical fact that Moses could NOT have used the term or

had any dealings with a Samaritan.

Sura 20:85-87, 020.085

YUSUFALI: (Allah) said: "We have tested thy people in thyabsence: the Samiri has led them astray."

PICKTHAL: He said: Lo! We have tried thy folk in thine

absence, and As-Samiri hath misled them.

SHAKIR: He said: So surely We have tried your peopleafter you, and the Samiri has led them astray.

020.086YUSUFALI: So Moses returned to his people in a state of

indignation and sorrow. He said: "O my people! did not

your Lord make a handsome promise to you? Did then the

promise seem to you long (in coming)? Or did ye desire thatWrath should descend from your Lord on you, and so ye

broke your promise to me?"PICKTHAL: Then Moses went back unto his folk, angry

and sad. He said: O my people! Hath not your Lord

promised you a fair promise? Did the time appointed then

appear too long for you, or did ye wish that wrath from yourLord should come upon you, that ye broke tryst with me?

SHAKIR: So Musa returned to his people wrathful,

sorrowing. Said he: O my people! did not your Lordpromise you a goodly promise: did then the time seem long

to you, or did you wish that displeasure from your Lord

should be due to you, so that you broke (your) promise tome?

020.087

YUSUFALI: They said: "We broke not the promise to thee,as far as lay in our

power: but we were made to carry the weight of the

1. In all these verses Quran uses thword SAMIRI. It never uses the worSamaritan.

2. Unless some one proves that ther

was no man with name or titlSAMIRI in Moses time, none of thes

claims can be true.

3. This allegation is certainly based o

misinformation and malice and no

based on actual facts.

Allah Knows Best.

ornaments of the (whole)

people, and we threw them (into the fire), and that was whatthe Samiri suggested.

PICKTHAL: They said: We broke not tryst with thee of our

own will, but we were

laden with burdens of ornaments of the folk, then cast them(in the fire), for

thus As-Samiri proposed.SHAKIR: They said: We did not break (our) promise to you

of our own accord, but we were made to bear the burdens of

the ornaments of the people, then we made a

casting of them, and thus did the Samiri suggest. Sura20:95-97,

020.095YUSUFALI: (Moses) said: "What then is thy case, O

Samiri?"PICKTHAL: (Moses) said: And what hast thou to say, OSamiri?

SHAKIR: He said: What was then your object, O Samiri?

020.096YUSUFALI: He replied: "I saw what they saw not: so I took

a handful (of dust) from the footprint of the Messenger, and

threw it (into the calf): thus did my soulsuggest to me."

PICKTHAL: He said: I perceived what they perceive not, so

I seized a handful from the footsteps of the messenger, andthen threw it in. Thus my soul commended to me.

SHAKIR: He said: I saw (Jibreel) what they did not see, so

I took a handful (of the dust) from the footsteps of themessenger, then I threw it in the casting; thus did my soul

commend to me

020.097YUSUFALI: (Moses) said: "Get thee gone! but thy

(punishment) in this life will be that thou wilt say, 'touch me

not'; and moreover (for a future penalty) thou hast a promisethat will not fail: Now look at thy god, of whom thou hast

become a devoted worshipper: We will certainly (melt) it in

a blazing fire and scatter it broadcast in the sea!"

PICKTHAL: (Moses) said: Then go! and lo! in this life it is

for thee to say: Touch me not! and lo! there is for thee a

tryst thou canst not break. Now look upon thy god of whichthou hast remained a votary. Verily we will burn it and will


31/55

scatter its dust over the sea.

SHAKIR: He said: Begone then, surely for you it will be in

this life to say, Touch (me) not; and surely there is a threat

for you, which shall not be made to fail to you, and look at

your god to whose worship you kept (so long); we willcertainly burn it, then we will certainly scatter it a (wide)

scattering in the sea.

The term was not used by anyone until around 722 BC,

hundreds of years after the exodus that the "error free"

Quran describes in this surah.

History proves without question that the term and the

country did NOT exist until HUNDREDS OF YEARSLATER.

Would a perfect god make this blatant historical error?

16. The Miraculous Journey:


The miraculous journey:

Surah 17:1 of the Quran reads.... "Glory to Allah Who didtake his servant for a journey by night. From the sacred

mosque to THE FARTHEST MOSQUE". Sura 17:1,

YUSUFALI: Glory to (Allah) Who did take His servant for

a Journey by night from the Sacred Mosque to the farthestMosque, whose precincts We did bless,- in order that We

might show him some of Our Signs: for He is the One Who

heareth and seeth (all things).PICKTHAL: Glorified be He Who carried His servant by

night from the Inviolable Place of Worship to the Far distant

place of worship the neighborhood whereof We haveblessed, that We might show him of Our tokens! Lo! He,

only He, is the Hearer, the Seer.

SHAKIR: Glory be to Him Who made His servant to go on

a night from the Sacred Mosque to the remote mosque ofwhich We have blessed the precincts, so that We may show

to him some of Our signs; surely He is the Hearing, the

Seeing.

The furthest mosque (arabic name of which is Al-Masjid-ul-

Aqs-a) didn`t exist until AFTER Muhammed died,

Muhammed COULD NOT HAVE VISITED IT!Of course if this was added AFTER his death then it would

have been easy to make such a mistake, but Muslims areadamant the Quran has not changed....

This verse is said to have been revealed around 622 AD but

then the place the mosque, mentioned by name (so no

doubting which mosque is meant), is at did not exist andindeed the place it now sits was in CHRISTIAN hands then

and not Muslim. And no temple existed there either.

Muslims have attempted to say that the name is incorrect,

that the name in the Quran ("the farthest mosque") must

simply be another mosque with that name or that it refers tothe temple (which of course we know didnt exist then

either) - anything they can rather than admitting that the

Quran got it wrong.

1. In Quran the word MASJID AQSA

is used for the place and not thbuilding.

2. MASJID HARAM, the holy mosqu

at Makkah shall always be Mosque

even if there is no physical structurstanding there. Then MASJID

HARAM is the structure made b

Prophet Abraham and not the granstructure and building which surround

it.

2A. In the same way, MASJID AQSA

is the altar or stone which wa

anointed by Jacob for worship of Lord

The grand Temple made by Solomosurrounding that site is not MASJID

AQSA in the real sense. So even if th

temple was not standing, the place wastill there and that was the site visite

by our prophet on that blessed night.

3. In the same sense Quran says thaAllah took his prophet to th

Jerusalem Mosque (MASJID AQSAduring a blessed night, so that He ma

show him his signs.

4. There is nothing wrong in Quranthe error is in the mind of writer.

Allah Knows Best.


33/55

17. Two of every thing


3) Two of everything:

Sura 51:49 of the Quran tells us that.... "of everything wehave created PAIRS that ye may receive instruction"

Sura 51:49,

YUSUFALI: And of every thing We have created pairs:

That ye may receive instruction.PICKTHAL: And all things We have created by pairs, that

haply ye may reflect.

SHAKIR: And of everything We have created pairs that youmay be mindful.

The Quran claims to be from Allah and here Allah tells usthat everything was made in pairs (incidentally Muslims say

they worship just one god, Allah, yet here the Quran says

"WE have created" and not "I have created"?).

Guess Allah didn`t make everything after all then, after all

there is gravity which keeps us down - but no anti-gravity

which pulls us up.

Bdelloid Rotifers (I`m not a scientist so hope I`ve spelled

this right are a class of life that have apparently, according

to the experts, been pair-less for millions of years.

I will not detail whole lists of things here that are not madein pairs such as certain types of plant, bacterium, etc etera

as I`m sure most will know of at least one example and even

one disproves the Qurans claim.

1. This is again a very childish type o

allegation. Two of Every Thingdoes not include every thing literally.

2. This refers to the animal kingdom

and life forms including plan

kingdom.

3. It refers to the presence of male an

female sex in these things.

4. Examples of Every thing in Qura

and meaning it most of the things arnumerous.

5. The word We in Quran is used as

plural of respect and not a plural onumbers. This type of address i

available in almost all easter

language. In English also, RoyaPronouncements also use We, Us etc

but no one takes them in literal sense.

Allah Knows Best.

18. Is Alexander the Great, Zul Qarnain of Quran


4) Alexander the great - the Muslim BEFORE Mohammed:

We all know of the infamous Alexander the great, hehappened to think he was divine and had statues erected to

himself among his historical achievements. But did you

know he was a Muslim?

Surah 18 tells us of Zul-Quarnain, who Muslims havealways claimed is Alexander the great.

Sura 18:83,YUSUFALI: They ask thee concerning Zul-qarnain. Say, "I

will rehearse to you something of his story."

PICKTHAL: They will ask thee of Dhu'l-Qarneyn. Say: Ishall recite unto you a remembrance of him.

SHAKIR: And they ask you about Zulqarnain. Say: I will

recite to you an account of him.

And,

Sura 18.86,

YUSUFALI: Until, when he reached the setting of the sun,he found it set in a spring of murky water: Near it he found

a People: We said: "O Zul-qarnain! (thou hast authority,)

either to punish them, or to treat them with kindness."

PICKTHAL: Till, when he reached the setting-place of thesun, he found it setting in a muddy spring, and found a

people thereabout. We said: O Dhu'l-Qarneyn! Either punishor show them kindness.

SHAKIR: Until when he reached the place where the sun

set, he found it going down into a black sea, and found by it

a people. We said: O Zulqarnain! either give them achastisement or do them a benefit.

And,

Sura 18.94,

YUSUFALI: They said: "O Zul-qarnain! the Gog and

Magog (People) do great mischief on earth: shall we thenrender thee tribute in order that thou mightest erect a barrier

between us and them?

PICKTHAL: They said: O Dhu'l-Qarneyn! Lo! Gog and

Magog are spoiling the land. So may we pay thee tribute oncondition that thou set a barrier between us and them?

SHAKIR: They said: O Zulqarnain! surely Gog and Magog

1. Quran never mentions the nam

Alexander the Great, it only uses thTitle Zul Qarnain, which means onwith two horns.

2. I do not deny that some Muslim

Commentators (Including AbdullaYousuf Ali) try to identify Alexande

the Great with Quranic Zul Qarnain

If they have committed mistake oerror we cannot say that Quran i

responsible for that error.

3. The character of Zul Qarnain a

mentioned in Quran does not matc

with the character of Alexander. The

the issue of Western expedition endinin a sea delta, does not match wit

Alexanders conquests.

4. That is why most of Muslim

commentators do not equate Qurani

Zul Qarnain with Alexander the great.

5. Therefore this allegation does no

apply to Quran itself but to thoscommentators.

Allah Knows Best.


35/55

make mischief in the land. Shall we then pay you a tribute

on condition that you should raise a barrier between us andthem

According to Muslims he was a great Muslim, a follower of

one god and apparently lived to old age.

Alexander the great, however, died at 33 years old afterhaving put up statues to lots of different gods and even

thought he himself was a god.

Clearly he was not a Muslim, despite their claims, and hedid not live to old age. Another error?

19. The Amazing Tale of Pharaoh


5) The amazing tale of Pharaoh :

We all know of the infamous Pharaoh and how he perishedchasing after the Israelites. But did you know that Allah

killed him and also let him live?

Surah 10:92 tells us that Allah saved Pharaoh and let himlive but the same story elsewhere in the Quran (Suras 28:40,

17:103 and 43:55) say that actually pharaoh drowned!

Sura 10:92,YUSUFALI: "This day shall We save thee in the body, that

thou mayest be a sign to those who come after thee! but

verily, many among mankind are heedless of Our Signs!"PICKTHAL: But this day We save thee in thy body that

thou mayst be a portent for those after thee. Lo! most of

mankind are heedless of Our portents.

SHAKIR: But We will this day deliver you with your bodythat you may be a sign to those after you, and most surely

the majority of the people are heedless to Our Compare

with,

Sura 28:40,

YUSUFALI: So We seized him and his hosts, and We flung

them into the sea: Now behold what was the end of thosewho did wrong!

PICKTHAL: Therefor We seized him and his hosts, andabandoned them unto the sea. Behold the nature of the

consequence for evil-doers!

SHAKIR: So We caught hold of him and his hosts, then We

cast them into the sea, and see how was the end of theunjust.

And,

Sura 17:103,

YUSUFALI: So he resolved to remove them from the face

of the earth: but We did drown him and all who were withhim.

PICKTHAL: And he wished to scare them from the land,

but We drowned him and those with him, all together.

SHAKIR: So he desired to destroy them out of the earth, butWe drowned him and those with him all together;

1. I think this allegation is based o

total misunderstanding of Quraniverses.

2. Quran does claim at many place

that Pharaoh and his hosts wer

drowned in water. And there is nconfusion at all.

3. In Surah 10:92, Allah says tPharaoh , that this day we will sav

you in body, i.e. your body shall b

saved and shall be a sign for those whwill after you.

4. Quran does not say that Pharao

was saved alive, saving in thy bodand saving alive are totally differen

things and the writer has muddled u

the two.

5. It is very interesting to note tha

Bible is totally silent about the body o

Pharaoh, and it is mentioned only iQuran that the body of Pharaoh wa

saved.

6. It is very recent that the Body o

Exodus Pharaoh was discovered an

analyzed and it was confirmed that hdied because of drowning. This i

confirmation of Quranic verse afte

more than 1300 years!!!

Allah Knows Best.


37/55

And,

Sura 43:55,YUSUFALI: When at length they provoked Us, We exacted

retribution from them, and We drowned them all.

PICKTHAL: So, when they angered Us, We punished them

and drowned them every one.SHAKIR: Then when they displeased Us, We inflicted a

retribution on them, so We drowned them all together,

Now if there is NO ERROR in the Quran then how can

Pharaoh have died in one Sura yet not died in the others?

Still no contradiction?


38/55

19. Angels cannot disobey Allah:


6) Angels cannot disobey Allah:

Sura 16:49-50 says of the angels that "...They ALL fear their

Lord, high above them, and they do ALL THEY ARE

COMMANDED."

Suras 16:49-50,

16.49

YUSUFALI: And to Allah doth obeisance all that is in theheavens and on earth, whether moving (living) creatures or

the angels: for none are arrogant (before their Lord).

PICKTHAL: And unto Allah maketh prostration hatsoeveris in the heavens and whatsoever is in the earth of living

creatures, and the angels (also) and they are not proud.

SHAKIR: And whatever creature that is in the heavens and

that is in the earth makes obeisance to Allah (only), and theangels (too) and they do not show pride.

16.50YUSUFALI: They all revere their Lord, high above them,

and they do all that they are commanded.

PICKTHAL: They fear their Lord above them, and do what

they are bidden.SHAKIR: They fear their Lord above them and do what

they are commanded.

Here we are told angels NEVER disobey Allah.

But, not suprisingly, the Quran then says in Sura 2:34 whentalking of the angels being told to bow down to Adam that

"And behold, we said to the angels: `bow down to Adam`.

And they bowed down, EXCEPT IBLIS. HE REFUSEDAND WAS HAUGHTY".

Sura 2:34,YUSUFALI: He said: "O Adam! Tell them their names."

When he had told them, Allah said: "Did I not tell you that I

know the secrets of heaven and earth, and I know what ye

reveal and what ye conceal?"PICKTHAL: He said: O Adam! Inform them of their names,

and when he had informed them of their names, He said:

1. This allegation is also based on totamisunderstanding and distorting oQuranic verses.

2. It is true that Allah says that Angel

do not disobey Allahs commands evein the least.

3. Then Quran very specifically saythat IBLIS was not from the angels bu

was from Jinns. Chapter 18:50 (a

mentioned by the writer himself).

4. Now when God gave command t

angels to bow down before Adam

IBLIS was also present there. Hmight be alone Jinn in that assemble o

Millions upon Millions of angels. Th

command was for all and it was nonecessary to give a separate comman

to IBLIS to bow down before Adam.

5. So this command of Allah does nomake IBLIS an angel. When Qura

specifically says that he was a Jinn.

6. So there is no truth in this allegatio

that Angels can disobey Allah o

IBLIS was also an angel.

Allah Knows Best.


39/55

Did I not tell you that I know the secret of the

heavens and the earth? And I know that which ye discloseand which ye hide.

SHAKIR: He said: O Adam! inform them of their names.

Then when he had informed them of their names, He said:

Did I not say to you that I surely know what is ghaib in theheavens and the earth and (that) I know what you manifest

and what you hide?

So according to the Quran ALL angels do as commanded,

but not always

UPDATE: In fairness to Muslims I have offered to show

any problems found with the articles on Islam.

One has written and been discussing with me this error in

particular about angels disobeying Allah. As he rightlypoints out there is another Sura (Surah 18:50) which saysthe same thing but also says Iblis was a Jinn. Surah 2:34

however says ALL the angels bowed EXCEPT Iblis.

Sura 18:50,YUSUFALI: Behold! We said to the angels, "Bow down to

Adam": They bowed down except Iblis. He was one of the

Jinns, and he broke the Command of his Lord. Willye then take him and his progeny as protectors rather than

Me? And they are enemies to you! Evil would be the

exchange for the wrong-doers!PICKTHAL: And (remember) when We said unto the

angels: Fall prostrate before Adam, and they fell prostrate,

all save Iblis. He was of the jinn, so he rebelled against hisLord's command. Will ye choose him and his seed for your

protecting friends instead of Me, when they are an enemy

unto you? Calamitous is the exchange for evil-doers.

SHAKIR: And when We said to the angels: Make obeisanceto Adam; they made obeisance but Iblis (did it not). He was

of the jinn, so he transgressed the commandment of his

Lord. What! would you then take him and his offspring forfriends rather than Me, and they are your enemies? Evil is

(this) change for the unjust.

If the Quran is indeed error free this passage makes no

sense as for all angels to bow except Iblis implies he too is

an angel, if not then the command did not apply to him and

so the Quran is wrong to say all angels except Iblis bowed.The given answer to this, and one I cannot argue is wrong as

I do not speak Arabic, is that the translations are in error and

that the original Arabic language Quran reads in such a waythat there is no confusion.

While I can`t confirm this without reading Arabic I felt I

should add this possible explanation in the interests offairness as I`m not here to mislead but to be honest.

Basically the argument for explaining this difference is thatthe English translations are incorrect and that the Arabic

version is the only one not.

21. Gospel was Given to Moses, 1400 years before Jesus!!


7) Allah tells Moses about following Jesus gospel - 1000years too early: The Injil (or gospel) is what Muslims saywas given to Jesus. Jesus was born about 1400 or so years

AFTER Moses.

Sura 7:157 reads "Those who follow the Messenger, theunlettered Prophet, whom they find mentioned in their own

(Scriptures), in the Torah AND THE GOSPEL".

Sura 7:157,YUSUFALI: "Those who follow the messenger, the

unlettered Prophet, whom they find mentioned in their own

(scriptures),- in the law and the Gospel;- for he commandsthem what is just and forbids them what is evil; he allows

them as lawful what is good (and pure) and prohibits them

from what is bad (and impure); He releases them from their

heavy burdens and from the yokes that are upon them. So itis those who believe in him, honour him, help him, and

follow the light which is sent down with him,- it is they who

will prosper."

PICKTHAL: Those who follow the messenger, the Prophet

who can neither read nor write, whom they will find

described in the Torah and the Gospel (which are) withthem. He will enjoin on them that which is right and forbid

them that which is wrong. He will make lawful for them allgood things and prohibit for them only the foul; and he will

relieve them of their burden and the fetters that they used to

wear. Then those who believe in him, and honour him, and

help him, and follow the light which is sent down with him:they are the successful.

SHAKIR: Those who follow the Messenger-Prophet, the

Ummi, whom they find written down with them in theTaurat and the Injeel (who) enjoins them good and forbids

them evil, and makes lawful to them the good things and

makes unlawful to them impure things, and removes fromthem their burden and the shackles which were upon

them; so (as for) those who believe in him and honor him

and help him, and follow the light which has been sent

down with him, these it is that are the successful.

The Quran makes it clear Jesus was given the gospel but

1. This allegation is also based on totamisunderstanding and misinformation

2. It is very common in Quran t

change the mode of address or to

change the topic altogether whilspeaking on any matter. The example

are endless and any reader of Quran i

well aware of them. The context anthe words used clarify this sudde

change.

3. The same is applicable here als

7:154, 155 & 156 are Allah

interactions with Moses and Verse 15

is addressed to Jews and Christians oOur Prophets time and those that shal

come after him.

4. It is very childish and amateurish t

claim that Quran says that Gospel wa

given to Moses. I think that happen

when you do not know Arabic anonly read translations and do not eve

read the notes which clarify thsituation.

5. If this is the level of scholarship o

this writer, then it is no surprise thawe see so many self created errors an

contradictions in Quran!!

Allah Knows Best.


42/55

here Allah tells Moses that the people of that time could

find Muhammed in Jesus` gospel - when it wouldn`t beknowen for well over another THOUSAND years.

The only way a Muslim seems to find out of this one is to

say it refers to the gospel, as we know, but that it is tellingthem it is yet to be revealed - unfortunately it is quite

evident that Allahs speech here is in the present tenseto them, i.e. he is addressing them as if it already exists

"WHOM THEY FIND MENTIONED" not "who they

WILL find mentioned".

22. The incredible changing man:


The incredible changing man:

Did you know that Allah created man, according to the

Quran from one thing.

[1] A blood clot (Sura 96:1-2).Sura 96:1-2,

96.1

YUSUFALI: Proclaim! (or read!) in the name of thy Lordand Cherisher, Who created-

PICKTHAL: Read: In the name of thy Lord Who createth,

SHAKIR: Read in the name of your Lord Who created.96.2

YUSUFALI: Created man, out of a (mere) clot of congealed

blood:

PICKTHAL: Createth man from a clot.SHAKIR: He created man from a clot.

[2] ....and water (Suras 21:30, 24:45 and 25:54).

Sura 21:30,YUSUFALI: Do not the Unbelievers see that the heavens

and the earth were joined together (as one unit of creation),

before we clove them asunder? We made from water every

living thing. Will they not then believe?PICKTHAL: Have not those who disbelieve known that the

heavens and the earth were of one piece, then We partedthem, and we made every living thing of water? Will

they not then believe?

SHAKIR: Do not those who disbelieve see that the heavens

and the earth were closed up, but We have opened them; andWe have made of water everything living, will they not then

believe?

And,

Sura 24:45,

YUSUFALI: And Allah has created every animal fromwater: of them there are some that creep on their bellies;

some that walk on two legs; and some that walk on four.

Allah creates what He wills for verily Allah has power over

all things.PICKTHAL: Allah hath created every animal of water. Of

them is (a kind) that goeth upon its belly and (a kind) that

1. This is another of the childisargument against Quran. If Humanhave passed thru various stages durin

their creation, then it is not wrong t

point out to each of these stages an

say that humans were created fromsuch and such.

2. It is indeed correct that humanhave passed thru all these stage

Quranic version would be wrong,

humans did not pass thru any of thesstages at any time during the

creations.

3. So humans were indeed createfrom:

A. Dust.

B. Clay (Hard dried Dust).

C. Water in the form of Semen.

D. A very small part of semeNUTFAH.

E. From mingled sperms of male an

female.

F. From ALAQA

And all other stages mentioned i

Quran. And what is more the first ma

was created from nothing!!

Allah Knows Best.


44/55

goeth upon two legs and (a kind) that goeth upon four. Allah

createth what He will. Lo! Allah is Able to do all things.SHAKIR: And Allah has created from water every living

creature: so of them is that which walks upon its belly, and

of them is that which walks upon two feet, and of them is

that which walks upon four; Allah creates what He pleases;surely Allah has power over all things.

And,

Sura 25:54,

YUSUFALI: It is He Who has created man from water: then

has He established relationships of lineage and marriage: forthy Lord has power (over all things).

PICKTHAL: And He it is Who hath created man from

water, and hath appointed for him kindred by blood andkindred by marriage; for thy Lord is ever Powerful.

SHAKIR: And He it is Who has created man from thewater, then He has made for him blood relationship andmarriage relationship, and your Lord is powerful.

[3] ....and clay (Sura 15:26).

Sura 15:26,YUSUFALI: We created man from sounding clay, from

mud moulded into shape;

PICKTHAL: Verily We created man of potter's clay of blackmud altered,

SHAKIR: And certainly We created man of clay that gives

forth sound, of black mud fashioned in shape.

[4] ....and dust (Suras 3:59, 30:20 and 35:11).

Sura 3:59,YUSUFALI: The similitude of Jesus before Allah is as that

of Adam; He created him from dust, then said to him: "Be".

And he was.

PICKTHAL: Lo! the likeness of Jesus with Allah is as thelikeness of Adam. He created him of dust, then He said unto

him: Be! and he is.

SHAKIR: Surely the likeness of Isa is with Allah as thelikeness of Adam; He created him from dust, then said to

him, Be, and he was.

And,

Sura 30:20,

YUSUFALI: Among His Signs in this, that He created you

from dust; and then,- behold, ye are men scattered (far andwide)!


45/55

PICKTHAL: And of His signs is this: He created you of

dust, and behold you human beings, ranging widely!SHAKIR: And one of His signs is that He created you from

dust, then lo! you are mortals (who) scatter.

And,Sura 35:11,

YUSUFALI: And Allah did create you from dust; then froma sperm-drop; then He made you in pairs. And no female

conceives, or lays down (her load), but with His knowledge.

Nor is a man long-lived granted length of days, nor is a part

cut off from his life, but is in a Decree (ordained). All this iseasy to Allah.

PICKTHAL: Allah created you from dust, then from a little

fluid, then He made you pairs (the male and female). Nofemale beareth or bringeth forth save with His knowledge.

And no-one groweth old who groweth old, nor is aughtlessened of his life, but it is recorded in a Book, Lo! that iseasy for Allah.

SHAKIR: And Allah created you of dust, then of the life-

germ, then He made you pairs; and no female bears, nor

does she bring forth, except with His knowledge;and no one whose life is lengthened has his life lengthened,

nor is aught diminished of one's life, but it is all in a book;

surely this is easy to Allah.

[5] ....and nothing (Sura 19:67).

Sura 19:67,YUSUFALI: But does not man call to mind that We created

him before out of nothing?

PICKTHAL: Doth not man remember that We created himbefore, when he was naught?

SHAKIR: Does not man remember that We created him

before, when he was nothing?

Believe it or not there really are these FIVE different

accounts of what man was made from.

Still no contradiction in the Quran?

has no child and (only) his two parents inherit him, then his

mother shall have the third; but if he has brothers, then hismother shall have the sixth after (the payment of) a bequest

he may have bequeathed or a debt; your parents and your

children, you know not which of them is the nearer to

you in usefulness; this is an ordinance from Allah: SurelyAllah is Knowing, Wise.

4.12

YUSUFALI: In what your wives leave, your share is a half,

if they leave no child; but if they leave a child, ye get a

fourth; after payment of legacies and debts.In what ye leave, their share is a fourth, if ye leave no child;

but if ye leave a child, they get an eighth; after payment of

legacies and debts. If the man or woman whose inheritanceis in question, has left neither ascendants nor descendants,

but has left a brother or a sister, each one of the two gets asixth; but if more than two, they share in a third; afterpayment of legacies and debts; so that no loss is caused (to

any one). Thus is it ordained by Allah; and Allah is

All-knowing, Most Forbearing.

PICKTHAL: And unto you belongeth a half of that which

your wives leave, if they have no child; but if they have a

child then unto you the fourth of that which they leave, afterany legacy they may have bequeathed, or debt (they may

have contracted, hath been paid). And unto them belongeth

the fourth of that which ye leave if ye have no child, but ifye have a child then the eighth of that which ye leave, after

any legacy ye may have bequeathed, or debt (ye may have

contracted, hath been paid). And if a man or a woman havea distant heir (having left neither parent nor child), and he

(or she) have a brother or a sister (only on the mother's side)

then to each of them twain (the brother and the sister) the

sixth, and if they be more than two, then they shall besharers in the third, after any legacy that may have been

bequeathed or debt (contracted) not injuring (the heirs

by willing away more than a third of the heritage) hath been paid. A commandment from Allah. Allah is Knower,

Indulgent.

SHAKIR: And you shall have half of what your wives leave

if they have no child, but if they have a child, then you shall

have a fourth of what they leave after (payment of) any

bequest they may have bequeathed or a debt; and they shallhave the fourth of what you leave if you have no child, but

8. Now since there are only daughterand no son, so the daughters can onl

get 2/3 rd of the amount Z. Eac

daughter therefore gets 2/9 Z.

9. Now 1/3rd of amount Z is still lef

over (if there was any son then wholamount would be distributed betwee

sons and daughters), so now th

inheritance would be given to nex

level of relatives, brothers, sistersuncles etc and they would get their du

shares from the inheritance as pe

Quranic formula indicated above.

10. Now see this elaborate inheritancscheme and consider the allegeallegation that Inheritors get more tha

the inheritance amount!!!

11. What shall we call it? IgnoranceIncompetence or Stupidity?

Allah Knows Best.


48/55

if you have a child then they shall have the eighth of what

you leave after (payment of) a bequest you may havebequeathed or a debt; and if a man or a woman leaves

property to be inherited by neither parents nor offspring,

and he (or she) has a brother or a sister, then each of them

two shall have the sixth, but if they are more than that, theyshall be sharers in the third after (payment of) any bequest

that may have been bequeathed or a debt that does not harm(others); this is an ordinance from Allah: and Allah is

Knowing, Forbearing.

And 4:176,004.176

YUSUFALI: They ask thee for a legal decision. Say: Allah

directs (thus) about those who leave no descendants orascendants as heirs. If it is a man that dies,

leaving a sister but no child, she shall have half theinheritance: If (such a deceased was) a woman, who left nochild, Her brother takes her inheritance: If there are two

sisters, they shall have two-thirds of the inheritance

(between them): if there are brothers and sisters, (they

share), the male having twice the share of the female. Thusdoth Allah make clear to you (His law), lest ye err. And

Allah hath knowledge of all things.

PICKTHAL: They ask thee for a pronouncement. Say:

Allah hath pronounced for you concerning distant kindred.

If a man die childless and he have a sister, hers is half theheritage, and he would have inherited from her had she died

childless. And if there be two sisters, then theirs are two-

thirds of the heritage, and if they be brethren, men andwomen, unto the male is the equivalent of the share of

two females. Allah expoundeth unto you, so that ye err not.

Allah is Knower of all things.

SHAKIR: They ask you for a decision of the law. Say: Allah

gives you a decision concerning the person who has neither

parents nor offspring; if a man dies (and) he has no son andhe has a sister, she shall have half of what he leaves, and he

shall be her heir she has no son; but if there be two (sisters),

they shall have two-thirds of what he leaves; and if there arebrethren, men and women, then the

male shall have the like of the portion of two females; Allah

makes clear to you, lest you err; and Allah knows all things.


49/55

When a man dies, leaving behind three daughters, his two

parents and wife, they receive respective shares of 2/3 forthe three daughters together, 1/3 for the parents together and

1/8 for the wife which adds up to more than is actually

Possible Example two is that a man leaves only his mother,

his wife and two sisters, then they receive 1/3 , 1/4 and 2/3[the two sisters, 4:176], which again adds up to 15/12 of the

available property.

How can Allah tell them this is how much each will receive

when it adds up to MORE than 100% of what is actually

there, it is physically impossible - if you are left three carsyou can`t give five of them away can you (because it`s

impossible)?

24. Angels Do Not Protect But they Do


9) Angels don`t protect, but they do:

The last of these brief contradictions (its taken me a whileto compile these so dont expect another list just yet looks at

the role of angels in the error free

Quran. Suras 2:107 and 29:22 tell us that "Besides Allahyou have no protector nor helper".

Sura 2:107,

YUSUFALI: Knowest thou not that to Allah belongeth thedominion of the heavens and the earth? And besides Him ye

have neither patron nor helper.

PICKTHAL: Knowest thou not that it is Allah unto Whombelongeth the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth; and

ye have not, beside Allah, any guardian or helper?

SHAKIR: Do you not know that Allah's is the kingdom of

the heavens and the earth, and that besides Allah you haveno guardian or helper?

And,Sura 29:22,

YUSUFALI: "Not on earth nor in heaven will ye be able

(fleeing) to frustrate (his Plan), nor have ye, besides Allah,

any protector or helper."PICKTHAL: Ye cannot escape (from Him) in the earth or in

the sky, and beside Allah there is for you no friend or helper.SHAKIR: And you shall not escape in the earth nor in the

heaven, and you have neither a protector nor a helper

besides Allah.

But in Sura 41:3 the angels tell us that "We are your

PROTECTORS in this life and the hereafter"

Sura 41:3,

YUSUFALI: A Book, whereof the verses are explained in

detail;- a Qur'an in Arabic, for people who understand;-PICKTHAL: A Scripture whereof the verses are expounded,

a Lecture in Arabic for people who have knowledge,

SHAKIR: A Book of which the verses are made plain, an

Arabic Quran for a people who know:

and in Suras 13:11, 50:17 and 82:10 we are told angels

1. This so called error in Quran is als

due to misunderstanding of thQuranic style and Quranic way oargument.

2. When Allah says that no one ha

any protectors besides Allah, it meanthat without Allahs will, no one ca

protect any other.

servants, no one can ei
