Atheists in Quran (34) Muhammad and their Evil Eyes

The Atheists Arabs hired some famous Enviers who had very harmful evil eyes.to hurt Muhammad but they… Then they claimed that Muhammad is mad and possessed because of reciting the Quran.

Allah’s swear that Muhammad is neither mad nor possessed because of reciting the Quran.

Which one you go with? Allah’s swear or the Atheists Arabs’ claim?

Then again, why you every human being is involved in this issue?

———————————

The Arabic name of Chapter (Surah) 68 of the Noble Quran is “AL-QALAM”

AL-QALAM = THE PEN

In the first verse of the Surah, Allah swears by the Pen.

Allah swears by what they wrote, write and shall write by the pen to deny Muhammad.

About what has Allah sworn by the Pen?

The verses 68:2-4 tell us that:

Allah swears by the Pen that Muhammad:

• Is neither mad nor possessed (because of reciting the Quran)
• Is of great morality, tremendous nature and has the best standard of human characters
• Shall have a reward that is never to be cut off

This Allah’s swear is a great testimony in favor of the last Prophet Muhammad.

This Allah’s swear = the witness of the Almighty Creator who creates the unlimited universe.

This is the witness of the Almighty Creator

Now, let us see the witness of some of Allah’s creatures about Muhammad and the Quran.

Let us go back in the History for 1400 years ago (The verses 68:51-52)

We are now in the Holy Mosque, Al-Kaaba, in Makkah

See Al-Kaaba today and yesterday in these videos

We see the ignorant Atheists, unbelievers and idolaters among the Arabs.

They could not resist the great effects that essentially happen upon hearing the Quran.

They know that Muslims have embraced Islam and believed in Muhammad just upon hearing the recited Quran

The notables Atheists and the unbelievers’ leaders put a nasty plan.

They hired some famous Enviers in order to envy the Prophet Muhammad by their very harmful evil eyes.

They hired the Enviers to hurt Muhammad.

They gave them a lot of money to accomplish such a nasty mission.

What was the qualifications of the hired Enviers?

Upon they concentrated looking at something for a while:

• One of the hired Enviers claimed that he can split a big solid rock into two halves
• Another Envier claimed that Muhammad will slip and fall on the ground and his bones will be broken into pieces
• A third Envier claimed that Muhammad will be sick and he will never get out of bed until he died
• Etc.

Well, their target was to smite and strike Muhammad down with their glances.

On the other hand, the Prophet Muhammad used to recite the Quran in the Holy Mosque, Al-Kaaba, in Makkah in an attempt to spread Allah’s message unto the visitors of Al-Kaaba.

The Enviers kept looking at the Prophet Muhammad by their very harmful evil eyes for many hours.

Nothing happened to the Prophet Muhammad.

Allah protected his messenger from the Evil eyes of the Enviers

The notables and leaders’ plan failed!

Then what?

Many of the Arabs used to come every day from all over the Arabia to visit Al-Kaaba.

They certainly will hear the Prophet Muhammad reciting the Quran.

The notables and leaders were afraid of the great effects that essentially happen upon hearing the Quran by the visitors of Al-Kaaba

Then what they have to say about the Prophet Muhammad

They agreed to say to the visitors of Al-Kaaba that Muhammad is but a mad and possessed man

This is not a historical story for entertainment

This story is for you and for every human being all over the world

You have two witnesses:

Allah’s witness = Muhammad is neither mad nor possessed because of reciting the Quran.

Atheists Arabs’ witness = Muhammad mad and possessed because of reciting the Quran.

Which one you go with?

Then again, why you and every human being is involved in this story?

Because:

The Quran = Allah’s message to the entire world.

Allah is warning everyone: if someone hears about the existence of Muhammad and the Quran and he disbelieves in them, then he/she will dwell in the Eternal Hell in the Afterlife

It is interesting that Allah gives herein two names for the Quran:

A Reminder for all the worlds

Allah’s Favor to humankind

Then again, is it a moral way or a scientific conduct to judge about the Quran without reading it?

In fact, about 99% of the Quran deniers have no idea about the Quran and the other 1% of the Quran deniers know for sure that it is the Absolute Truth but they hide that in order not to lose their wealth and their power.

Nevertheless, some of that 1% could not resist anymore and they embraced Islam and announced their new faith.

To realize that, Google search how many Jews, Catholic Priests and orientalists embraced Islam?

The verses 68:1-4 in different translations:

QARIB:

1-4) Noon. By the pen and that (the angels) write, you are not, because of the favor of your Lord, mad. Indeed, there is an unfailing wage for you. Surely, you (Prophet Muhammad) are of a great morality.

SHAKIR:

1-4) Noon. I swear by the pen and what the angels write, by the grace of your Lord you are not mad. And most surely you shall have a reward never to be cut off. And most surely you conform (yourself) to sublime morality

PICKTHAL:

1-4) Nun. By the pen and that which they write (therewith), thou art not, for thy Lord’s favor unto thee, a madman. And lo! thine verily will be a reward unfailing. And lo! Thou art of a tremendous nature.

YUSUFALI:

1-4) Nun. By the pen and the (record) which (men) write,- thou art not, by the grace of thy Lord, mad or possessed. Nay, verily for thee is a reward unfailing: and thou (standest) on an exalted standard of character.

———————————

The verses 68:51-52 in different translations:

QARIB:

51-52) When the unbelievers hear the reminder, they nearly strike you down with their glances, and say: ‘surely, he is mad! ‘ But it is nothing other than a reminder for all the worlds.

SHAKIR:

51-52) And those who disbelieve would almost smite you with their eyes when they hear the reminder, and they say: most surely he is mad And it is naught but a reminder to the nations

PICKTHAL:

51-52) And lo! Those who disbelieve would fain disconcert thee with their eyes when they hear the reminder, and they say: lo! He is indeed mad; When it is naught else than a reminder to creation.

YUSUFALI:

51-52) And the unbelievers would almost trip thee up with their eyes when they hear the message; and they say: “surely he is possessed!” But it is nothing less than a message to all the worlds.

Atheists in Quran (21) their leader = their enemy = Satan

O humankind! Indeed Allah’s promise, of resurrection is true. So do not let the Deceiver, Satan, deceive you from believing. Satan is your enemy, so treat him as an enemy. Satan only summons followers so that they may be among the inhabitants of the fierce Fire.

———————————

The first four verses of Surah 35 emphasized three major facts of the Islamic faith:

• The oneness of Allah, the Almighty Creator
• The graces that Allah alone bestows
• Allah is the only One who provides sustenance for all His creation.

The verses 35:5-7 address 1) The Prophet Muhammad and 2) Mankind as follow:

1) The Prophet Muhammad, heartening him because his people’s rejection of his message and their false accusations of his lying caused him much pain. It stresses that all matters are in Allah’s hand.

2) Mankind confirming that Allah’s promise is a true promise and warning man against Satan’s schemes, which aim to divert man from recognizing the major truths already outlined.

The Creeping around Enemy

What Satan, our affirmed enemy, wants is to lead Mankind to hell’s torment?

Both belief and rejection are in Allah’s hand, and He knows all that people do.

Then the verses show us the types of requital that await the believers and unbelievers in the life to come.

The aim of the first address is at the Prophet Muhammad:

“If they accuse you of lying, other messengers, who had gone before you, were similarly accused. It is to Allah that all things return.” (Verse 4)

With all these truths easily and clearly recognizable, you need not worry that they accuse you of lying.

The same thing happened to earlier messengers.

If the Atheists deny you, O Muhammad with regard to your message of Allah’s Oneness, resurrection, reckoning and punishment, verily, the Atheists denied other messengers before you in this respect, so be steadfast as they were steadfast

All matters finally return to Allah who determines every end the way He pleases.

The aim of the second address is at Mankind, in general, to all people and to everyone:

People! Allah’s promise is true indeed. So do not let the life of the present world delude you, and do not let deceptive thoughts about Allah delude you. Satan is your enemy, so treat him as an enemy. He only calls on his followers so that they will be among those destined for the blazing fire. (Verses 5-6)

Allah’s promise is true:

• There is no doubt that it will come;
• It is a reality that will not fail;
• It is the absolute truth.
• Nothing can cause it to disappear, lose its way or change.

Nevertheless, this present life can delude people, as can Satan. Therefore, do not let anything deceive you:

“Do not let the life of the present world delude you, and do not let deceptive thoughts about Allah delude you.” (Verse 5)

O humankind! Indeed Allah’s promise, of resurrection and of other issues, is true. So do not let the life of this world deceive you, from believing, and do not let the Deceiver, Satan, deceive you concerning Allah

Satan has declared his hostility and enmity to you and that he will never be anything but an enemy to you.

Satan only summons his faction, his followers in disbelief, so that they may be among the inhabitants of the Blaze, the fierce Fire.

Therefore, “treat him as an enemy.” (Verse 6)

• Do not befriend him,
• Do not listen to his advice,
• Do not follow his footsteps,

For no wise person would follow his enemy’s footsteps.

Moreover, you should realize that Satan:

• Does not call you to anything good,
• Nor does he want you to be safe:

“He only calls on his followers so that they will be among those destined for the blazing fire.” (Verse 6)

Can anyone with reason and clear thinking answer a call that would put him in the fire?

This is a sincere, heartfelt address.

When man remembers the eternal challenge,

• He has to fight against his avowed enemy, Satan,
• He will muster all his strength, defending himself and ensuring his own safety.
• He will do his utmost not to fall to any temptation, keep himself on guard, and evaluate every thought by the scales Allah has given him.
• He is alert to the fact that any seemingly innocent thought may involve clever deception by his essential enemy.

This is the Islamic teachings.

Man needs to be on the alert to reject any temptation Satan presents. This entails the mobilization of all one’s responses against evil, both its inner appeal and surface attraction.

Thus, one is always on red alert, prepared to engage in this challenge, which rages persistently throughout this present life.

Such “take care of Satan” demanded from believers is followed by an outline of the fate of those who responded to Satan’s call.

To underpin the contrast, the verse restated the situation of the believers who reject Satan and drive him away:

“For the unbelievers there is severe suffering in store; while for those who believe and do righteous deeds there is forgiveness of sins and a great reward.” (Verse 7)

Those who disbelieve, theirs will be a severe chastisement; but those who believe and perform righteous deeds, theirs will be forgiveness and a great reward — this is a declaration of what [fate] will be for the adherents of Satan and what will be for his opponents [respectively].

———————————

The verses 35:5-7 in different translations:

QARIB:

4-If they belie you; other messengers have been belied before you. to Allah all matters are returned.

5-People, the promise of Allah is true, so do not let this present life delude you, and do not let the deluder (Satan) delude you about Allah.

6-Satan is indeed your enemy; therefore take him for an enemy. he calls his party so that they will become the companions of the blaze.

7-For the unbelievers awaits a terrible punishment, but for those who believe and do good deeds is forgiveness and a great recompense.

SHAKIR:

4-And if they call you a liar, truly messengers before you were called liars, and to Allah are all affairs returned

5-O men! Surely, the promise of Allah is true, therefore let not the life of this world deceive you, and let not the arch-deceiver deceive you respecting Allah

6-Surely, the Shaitan is your enemy, so take him for an enemy; he only invites his party that they may be inmates of the burning

7- (As for) those who disbelieve, they shall have a severe punishment, and (as for) those who believe and do good, they shall have forgiveness and a great reward

PICKTHAL:

4-And if they deny thee, (O Muhammad), messengers (of Allah) were denied before thee. Unto Allah, all things are brought back.

5-O mankind! Lo! the promise of Allah is true. So let not the life of the world beguile you, and let not the (avowed) beguiler beguile you with regard to Allah.

6-Lo! The devil is an enemy for you, so treat him as an enemy. He only summoneth his faction to be owners of the flaming fire.

7-Those who disbelieve, theirs will be an awful doom; and those who believe and do good works, theirs will be forgiveness and a great reward.

YUSUFALI:

4-And if they reject thee, so were messengers rejected before thee: to Allah back for decision all affairs.

5-O men! Certainly, the promise of Allah is true. Let not then this present life deceive you, nor let the chief deceiver deceive you about Allah.

6-Verily, Satan is an enemy to you: so treat him as an enemy. he only invites his adherents, that they may become companions of the blazing fire.

7-For those who reject Allah, is a terrible penalty: but for those who believe and work righteous deeds, is forgiveness, and a magnificent reward.

Chapter 6 of the Quran (79) the Jews and Christians Know Muhammad

The Quran declares that the Jews who have knowledge of the genuine Torah and the Christians who have knowledge of the genuine Gospel know that Muhammad is the Last Prophet Allah has sent; and that the Quran is the absolute truth.

——————————————-

In the previous article, the enemies of the Prophets use the varnished speech to attack the Prophets and the Riligion.

But, who listen to this fine varnished speech? Those who do not believe in the Day of Judgment and Afterlife; they do not recognize the fact that they will be punished for what they are acquiring of sins on the Day of Judgment although it is the absolute truth.

Now, we have the Quran; it is the Word of Allah and we have the fine varnished speech of the unbelievers; which of which one has to follow?

 

Ayah 6:114 says:

Then, say to them, O Muhammad:

1)    shall I obey as Lord other than Allah

2)    shall I worship as God other than Allah

3)    Shall I seek for judge other than Allah?

Shall I do that when Allah has revealed unto you this fully explained Scripture, the Quran through the intermediary of the Angel Gabriel?

The Quran is explaining fully the lawful and the unlawful.

It is also said: the Quran is revealed in instalments, a few verses on each occasion.

The verse says that those unto whom Allah gave the Scripture, the Torah and the Gospel.

Those to whom Allah have given knowledge of the Torah are certain on the basis of their Scripture that the Quran is revealed from your Lord in truth.

An example of those who have knowledge of the Torah is ‘Abdullah Ibn Salam; he was one of the top Jewish Rabbis and he embraced Islam.

[Examples of the ex- Christian Priests who embraced Islam are found in the appendix].

 

So do not be O Muhammad of the waverers, of those who doubt that they might not know this.

Surely, the Jews who have knowledge of the Torah and the Christians who have knowledge of the Gospel know that you are the Last Prophet Allah sent.  This is intended to affirm to the disbelievers that the Quran is the absolute truth.

—————————————————————-

The verse 6:114 in different translations

 

QARIB:

Should I seek a judge other than Allah when it is he who has sent down the well distinguished book for you? Those to whom we have given the book know that it is the truth sent down from your lord, so do not be among the doubters.

 

SHAKIR:

Shall I then seek a judge other than Allah? And he it is who has revealed to you the book (which is) made plain; and those whom we have given the book know that it is revealed by your lord with truth, therefore you should not be of the disputers

 

PICKTHAL:

Shall I seek other than Allah for judge, when he it is who hath revealed unto you (this) scripture, fully explained? Those unto whom we gave the scripture (aforetime) know that it is revealed from thy lord in truth. so be not thou (o muhammad) of the waverers.

 

YUSUFALI:

Say: “shall I seek for judge other than Allah? – when he it is who hath sent unto you the book, explained in detail.” they know full well, to whom we have given the book, that it hath been sent down from thy lord in truth. Never be then of those who doubt.
