Chapter 6 of the Quran (110) the Orphan’s Rights

Do not approach the wealth of the orphan save with that which is better, through protecting it and  making it grow; till he reach maturity and his legal age and  shows righteousness in his character.

——————————————————————————————————

Ayah 152 continues saying:

And do not approach the wealth of the orphan save with that which is better, through protecting it and  making it grow; till he reach maturity and his legal age and  shows righteousness in his character.

And give full measure and full weight, in justice, fairly, desisting from any fraud.

We do not charge any soul beyond its capacity, what it can bear in such [matters], so that if one makes a mistake in a measure or weight, and Allah knows that his intention had been well-meaning, then he suffers no blame, as is stated in one hadith of the Prophet Muhammad.

Allah does not task any soul upon measuring and weighing beyond its scope or beyond its effort to establish justice.  

And  if you speak a judgement or otherwise, then be just, by being truthful, even if he, the person receiving the statement or the one being accused in it, should be a kinsman.

In other words, if you give your word, do justice thereunto, be truthful, even though it be against a kinsman and you should be truthful and say what is true.

And fulfil Allah’s covenant.

This is what Allah has charged you with, that perhaps you will remember and you may heed the admonition.

—————————————————————-

The verse 6:152 in different translations

QARIB:

Do not touch the wealth of the orphan, except in the fairer manner until he reaches maturity. Give just weight and full measure, we never charge a soul with more than it can bear. When you speak, be just, even if it affects your own kinsmen. Fulfill the covenant of Allah. With such he charges you, in order that you remember.

SHAKIR:

and do not approach the property of the orphan except in the best manner until he attains his maturity, and give full measure and weight with justice– we do not impose on any soul a duty except to the extent of its ability; and when you speak, then be just though it be (against) a relative, and fulfill Allah’s covenant; this he has enjoined you with that you may be mindful;

PICKTHAL:

and approach not the wealth of the orphan save with that which is better, till he reach maturity. Give full measure and full weight, in justice. we task not any soul beyond its scope. And if ye give your word, do justice thereunto, even though it be (against) a kinsman; and fulfill the covenant of Allah. This he commandeth you that haply ye may remember.

YUSUFALI:

and come not nigh to the orphan’s property, except to improve it, until he attain the age of full strength; give measure and weight with (full) justice;- no burden do we place on any soul, but that which it can bear;- whenever ye speak, speak justly, even if a near relative is concerned; and fulfill the covenant of Allah: thus doth he command you, that ye may remember.

Chapter 6 of the Quran (104) Forbidden only for Jews

Unto the Jews, Allah forbade every animal with claws, every bird with claws and every predatory animal with teeth, as well as every beast that has claws such as camels, ducks, geese, egrets and rabbits, etc.  It should be emphasized that all these forbidden foods were lawful for the Jews! Why Allah forbade those kinds of food for the Jews?

——————————————————————————————————

Summary of the forbidden food for the Jews:

Unto the Jews, Allah forbade every animal with claws, every bird with claws and every predatory animal with teeth, as well as every beast that has claws such as camels, ducks, geese, egrets and rabbits.

And of the oxen, cows and the sheep Allah forbade the fat thereof, i.e. the fat spread between the bowels and intestines and the fat spread over the kidneys.

Why all of that?

Ayah 8:146 says:

And to the Jews, Allah forbade every beast with hoof that is every animal which does not have divided toes, such as camels and ostriches.

And of oxen and sheep We forbade the Jews the fat of them, the thin fat lining the stomach and the fat of the kidneys, save what their backs carry, that is, what fat is attached to it, or, what is carried by, their entrails, their intestines or what is mingled with bone, thereof, which is the fat of the rump: these were lawful for them.

It should be emphasized that all these were lawful for the Jews!

 

Now, why Allah forbade those kinds of food for the Jews?

Allah has requited the Jews, with all of those prohibitions, for their insolence, on account of their wrongdoing.

Allah punished them for their rebellion and because of their transgression and He made all these forbidden for them. [See also the verse 4:160]

Verily Allah is the absolute truthful, in what He has said and in recounting his tidings and his appointed times.

—————————————————————-

The verse 6:146 in different translations

QARIB:

We forbade the Jews all with undivided hoofs and the fat of sheep and cattle, except what is on their backs and entrails, and what is mixed with their bones. As such we recompensed them for their transgress ions. Indeed, we were truthful.

SHAKIR:

and to those who were jews we made unlawful every animal having claws, and of oxen and sheep we made unlawful to them the fat of both, except such as was on their backs or the entrails or what was mixed with bones: this was a punishment we gave them on account of their rebellion, and we were surely truthful

PICKTHAL:

Unto those who were jews we forbade every animal with claws. And of the oxen and the sheep forbade we unto them the fat thereof save that upon the backs or the entrails, or that which is mixed with the bone. That we awarded them for their rebellion. And lo! We verily were truthful.

YUSUFALI:

for those who followed the jewish law, we forbade every (animal) with undivided hoof, and we forbade them that fat of the ox and the sheep, except what adheres to their backs or their entrails, or is mixed up with a bone: this in recompense for their wilful disobedience: for we were true (in our ordinances).

Chapter 6 of the Quran (102) Satan and Cows and Camels

None does greater evil than he who invents a lie against Allah that he may lead mankind astray from Allah’s religion and obedience without any knowledge? Truly, Allah does not guide to His religion the evildoing folk. Satan and his allies forbid some cows and camels!

——————————————-

In the previous article, Ayah 6:143 describes some Satan’s footsteps that the pre-Islamic Arabs used to follow as rules.

 

In addition, Ayah 6:143 continues saying:

Allah has created eight pairs of cattle, eight types, some for burdens to bear loads and some for light support and food.

For example, Allah has created two pairs of camels, a male and a female; and two pairs of cows a male and a female too.

Say O Muhammad to the unbelievers among the Arabs who on one occasion deem male cattle forbidden, and on another occasion deem the female cattle forbidden, and then they ascribe such rules to Allah.

Ask them O Muhammad:

Is it the two males, of the camels and cows, Allah have forbidden you to eat?

Is it the two females, of the camels and cows, Allah have forbidden you to eat? Or

Have Allah forbidden that which the wombs of the two females contain, be they male or female?

Inform me with knowledge, of the details of such prohibitions, if you speak truly.

Expound to me with knowledge, if you were truthful that Allah has made unlawful that which you claim.

On what basis has the prohibition been made?

If it is on the basis of maleness, then all males were forbidden;

If it is on the basis of femaleness, then all females were so forbidden;

If it is on the basis of what the womb may contain, then both genders were prohibited.

So, on what basis were such specifications made?

None does greater evil than he who invents a lie against Allah that he may lead mankind astray from Allah’s religion and obedience without any knowledge?

Truly, Allah does not guide evildoing folk.

Lo! Allah does not direct to His religion the wrong-doing folk

—————————————————————-

The verse 6:144 in different translations

QARIB:

Then a pair of camels and a pair of cattle. Say: ‘of these, has he forbidden you the males, the females, or what the wombs of the two females contain? were you witnesses when Allah charged you with this? who is more harmful than he who, without knowledge, invents a lie about Allah to mislead people? Allah does not guide the harmdoers.

SHAKIR:

And two of camels and two of cows. say: has he forbidden the two males or the two females or that which the wombs of the two females contain? Or were you witnesses when Allah enjoined you this? who, then, is more unjust than he who forges a lie against Allah that he should lead astray men without knowledge? surely Allah does not guide the unjust people

PICKTHAL:

And of the camels twain and of the oxen twain. say: hath he forbidden the two males or the two females, or that which the wombs of the two females contain; or were ye by to witness when Allah command ed you (all) this? Then who doth greater wrong than he who deviseth a lie concerning Allah, that he may lead mankind astray without knowledge. lo! Allah guideth not wrongdoing folk.

YUSUFALI:

Of camels a pair, and oxen a pair; say, hath he forbidden the two males, or the two females, or (the young) which the wombs of the two females enclose? – were ye present when Allah ordered you such a thing? But who doth more wrong than one who invents a lie against Allah, to lead astray men without knowledge? for Allah guideth not people who do wrong.

Chapter 6 of the Quran (101) Satan and Sheep and Goats

The Quran describes some Satan’s footsteps that the pre-Islamic Arabs used to follow as rules in respect to eating cattle. The Quran says: Is it the two males, of the sheep and goats, Allah have forbidden you to eat? Or is it the two females, of the sheep and goats, Allah have forbidden you to eat?

——————————————-

In the previous article, the Quran commands you to eat of that which Allah has provided you of crops and cattle, and do not follow the footsteps of Satan of of forbidding lawful food and of deeming unlawful food as lawful.

Ayah 6:143 describes some Satan’s footsteps that the pre-Islamic Arabs used to follow as rules; it says:

Allah has created eight pairs of cattle, eight types, some for burdens to bear loads and some for light support and food.

For example, Allah has created two pairs of sheep, a male and a female; and two pairs of goats a male and a female too.

Say O Muhammad to the unbelievers among the Arabs who on one occasion deem male cattle forbidden, and on another occasion deem the female cattle forbidden, and then they ascribe such rules to Allah.

Ask them O Muhammad:

Is it the two males, of the sheep and goats, Allah have forbidden you to eat?

Is it the two females, of the sheep and goats, Allah have forbidden you to eat? Or

Have Allah forbidden that which the wombs of the two females contain, be they male or female?

Inform me with knowledge, of the details of such prohibitions, if you speak truly.

Expound to me with knowledge, if you were truthful that Allah has made unlawful that which you claim.

On what basis has the prohibition been made?

If it is on the basis of maleness, then all males were forbidden;

If it is on the basis of femaleness, then all females were so forbidden;

If it is on the basis of what the womb may contain, then both genders were prohibited.

So, on what basis were such specifications made?

This form of interrogative is meant as repudiation.

The verse 6:143 in different translations

QARIB:

(He has given you) eight couples, a pair of sheep and a pair of goats. say: ‘of these, has he forbidden you the males, the females, or what the wombs of the two females contain? Tell me with knowledge, if you were truthful. ‘

SHAKIR:

Eight in pairs– two of sheep and two of goats. Say: has he forbidden the two males or the two females or that which the wombs of the two females contain? Inform me with knowledge if you were truthful

PICKTHAL:

Eight pairs: of the sheep twain, and of the goats twain. say: hath he forbidden the two males or the two females, or that which the wombs of the two females contain? Expound to me (the case) with knowledge, if ye were truthful.

YUSUFALI:

(Take) eight (head of cattle) in (four) pairs: of sheep a pair, and of goats a pair; say, hath he forbidden the two males, or the two females, or (the young) which the wombs of the two females enclose? tell me with knowledge if ye were truthful:

Allah is Asking you this Question (12) has Muhammad Invented the Quran?

Has Muhammad Invented the Quran? Then bring ten Surah

Allah is Challenging Mankind by 200 Words

The first linguistic challenge in the history of mankind

The Modern intellectual Scholars Repeat what the Ignorant Arabs have said more than 1400 years ago

——————————————

Allah is asking mankind this question:

Do the disbelievers say: Muhammad has invented the Quran?

Say (O Muhammad): ‘Then bring ten Surah the like thereof, the like of a Surah of the Quran (200 Arabic words); and call upon whom you can to assist you, If you are truthful, about the Quran being an invention made by Muhammad.

However, they would not be able at all to compose or bring ten Surah the like thereof, the like of a Surah of the Quran! 

——————————————

In the Noble Quran, Allah is asking mankind some important questions.

It seems compulsory for the serious one who is looking for the truth to have a look at those questions and if possible to answer them.

Allah’ questions are many.  In this series, these questions are chosen randomly.

——————————————

The question in this article is:

 Do the disbelievers of Mecca say: Muhammad has invented the Quran?

Say (O Muhammad): ‘Then bring ten Surah the like thereof, the like of a Surah of the Quran; and call upon whom you can to assist you, If you are truthful, about the Quran being an invention made by Muhammad.

However, they would not be able at all to compose or bring ten Surah the like thereof, the like of a Surah of the Quran!

This means that the disbelievers of Mecca are liar in their claim about the Quran being an invention made by Muhammad.

It is well known that the disbelievers of Mecca were ignorant about all the scientific issues and most of the historical topics mentioned in the Quran.  If we do not blame them about their claim about the Quran being an invention made by Muhammad; however, we blame the Modern Scholars who repeat their Statement that has been claimed more than 1400 years ago about the Quran.  Those Modern Scholars who say that the Quran is forged and it is made by Muhammad have to know that they repeat what has been said by the ignorant disbelievers Arabs of Mecca for more than 1400 years ago!

It should be emphasized that ten Surah of the Quran are about 200 Arabic words.  The disbelievers of Mecca failed to bring or to compose 200 Arabic words the like of a Surah of the Quran.

Interestingly, this challenge that is the first linguistic challenge in the history of mankind is still valid and Allah is still challenging mankind to bring or to compose ten Surah, i.e. 200 Arabic words the like of a Surah of the Quran. If mankind can not do that, then anyone who says that the Quran is forged is LIAR!

——————————————

 

The meanings verses 11:13- 14 give the question of this article and talk about it

Verse 11:13 says:

Or do they say, ‘He has invented the Quran?

Nay, the disbelievers of Mecca say: Muhammad has invented the Quran and presented it to us.

Say: ‘Then bring ten Surah the like thereof, the like of a Surah of the Quran, in terms of clarity and rhetorical excellence, invented, for you are Arabs who speak [Arabic] eloquently, like myself — he challenged them to these ten Surah

And call, in order [for them] to assist you, upon whom you can beside God, that is, [on] other than Him

And call on everyone you can, seek the help of what you worship (beside Allah

If you are truthful, about the Quran being an invention of lies.

And they would not be able to compose or bring ten Surah the like thereof, the like of a Surah of the Quran!

Verse 11:14 says:

Then, if they, that is, those on whom you call for assistance, do not answer you, know, this address is to the idolaters, that it has been revealed, enwrapped, only in God’s knowledge, not as an invention of lies against Him, and that there is no god save Him. Will you then submit? After this definitive argument;

 In other words: ‘Submit!’

It is also said: When they could not respond, Allah said: (And if they answer not your prayer) and if the wrong-doers do not answer you, (then know) O disbelievers (that it is revealed) that Gabriel brought down the Qur’an (only in the knowledge of Allah) and with his command; (and that there is no God save Him. Will ye then be (of) those who surrender?) and believe in Muhammad and in the Quran.

——————————————

Verses 11:13- 14 in different translations:

QARIB:

13) Or do they say: ‘he has forged it? ‘ say (to them): ‘then produce ten forged chapters like it. call, if you are able, upon other than Allah, if what you say is true. ‘

14) But if they do not answer you, know that it has been sent down with the knowledge of Allah, and that there is no god except he. So, have you surrendered (become Muslims)?

SHAKIR:

13) Or, do they say: he has forged it. say: then bring ten forged chapters like it and call upon whom you can besides Allah, if you are truthful

14) But if they do not answer you, then know that it is revealed by Allah’s knowledge and that there is no god but he; will you then submit?

PICKTHAL:

13) Or they say: he hath invented it. say: then bring ten Surah, the like thereof, invented, and call on everyone ye can beside Allah, if ye are truthful!

14) And if they answer not your prayer, then know that it is revealed only in the knowledge of Allah; and that there is no Allah save him. Will ye then be (of) those who surrender?

YUSUFALI:

13) Or they may say, “he forged it,” say, “bring ye then ten suras forged, like unto it, and call (to your aid) whomsoever ye can, other than Allah!- if ye speak the truth!

14) “If then they (your false gods) answer not your (call), know ye that this revelation is sent down (replete) with the knowledge of Allah, and that there is no god but he! Will ye even then submit (to Islam)?”

Chapter 6 of the Quran (20) They Do Not Belie but Deny

It is well known that Muhammad lived for 40 years before his prophethood among the people of Mecca who know him very well. They all used to respect him very much and they used to call him the truthful, the honest. The Idolators of Mecca do not belied him but they denied the Quran!

————————————————————————————-

 

The Historical background of Ayah 6:31 says:

 

It is well known that Muhammad lived for 40 years before his prophethood among the people of Mecca who know him, his family and his tribe very well. They all used to respect him very much and they used to call him the truthful, the honest, the sincerely faithful; He never ever lied.

 

The characters of the events happened before revealation of the verse:

1) Abu “Jahl” ibn Hisham, “Abu” means the father of and “Jahl” means ignorance. Abu Jahl was one of the famous enemies of the Prophet Muhammad. He was one of the leaders of the idolators of Mecca.

2) al-Harith ibn Amir; he was one of the chief idolators of Mecca.

 

What Abu Jahl said about Muhammad?

A man said to Abu Jahl: O ibn Hisham. tell me about Muhammad, for there is one here with us who wants to hear what you say: is he truthful or a liar?’

Abu Jahl said: ‘By Allah, Muhammad is truthful. Muhammad has never lied. But if his family take the office of keepers of the banner, giving water to the pilgrims, gatekeeper of the House (Kaabah), the Nadwah ( like the senate nowadays) and prophethood, what else remains for the rest of our tribe?’

 

 One day, the Prophet Muhammad passed by Abu Jahl and his companions, and they asked him: ‘O Muhammad, by Allah, we do not give you the lie, for we consider you truthful. What we deny is that which you have brought’.

 

What al-Harith ibn Amir said about Muhammad?

al-Harith used to give the lie openly to the Prophet, but when he retired to his family, he would say:

‘Muhammad is not of those who lie, and I think he is truthful’.

And so Allah, exalted is He, revealed the verse 6:33.

Allah knows indeed that it grieves you O Muhammad that, matter, which they say, to you, in denial.

Allah knows well how their talk, their sland er, denial and demand for proofs grieve you O Muhammad.

However, they know that you were truthful and honest.

Truth wise, they do not refute you but the evil-doers flout, scorn, and defy the revelations of Allah; that is the Quran.

 

—————————————————

 

The verse 6:33 in different translations

 

QARIB:

33) we know what they say saddens you. it is not you that they belie; but the harmdoers deny the verses of Allah.

 

SHAKIR:

33) we know indeed that what they say certainly grieves you, but surely they do not call you a liar; but the unjust deny the communications of Allah

 

PICKTHAL:

33) we know well how their talk grieveth thee, though in truth they deny not thee (muhammad) but evil-doers flout the revelations of Allah.

 

YUSUFALI:

33) we know indeed the grief which their words do cause thee: it is not thee they reject: it is the signs of Allah, which the wicked contemn.
