Atheists in Quran (47) when they wish they were dust

The punishment endured by the unbelievers originates from Allah’s mercy. For it is certainly part of mercy that evildoer should be punished and that it should not have the same end as the righteous. Lo! Allah is warning you O Atheists of a doom at hand, which will surely happen, a day whereon every Atheist will sadly cry: “Would that I were dust!”

———————————————–

The meanings of the verses 78:38-40 of the Noble Quran:

On the day when Gabriel, and the angels stand arrayed.

Frightful Silence!

The scene shows total silence; none dares to talk, everyone is looking around awaiting for his fate.

None will not speak, except him whom Allah permits to speak from among the believers and the angels.

The one who speaks from among the believers will say what is right.

On the day when the angels and Gabriel stand arrayed, they speak not to intercede, saving him whom Allah allows to intercede and speak right

That is the True Day, the Day of Resurrection, whose happening is definite

So whoever wishes to, let him come to Allah by being believing and obedient to Him, so that he may be secure from chastisement in it.

Lo! We have warned you, O Atheists, of a the chastisement of the impending Day of Resurrection when every person, will behold what his hands have sent ahead, of good and evil, and the Atheist will say, ‘O would that I were dust!’

In other words,

Lo! Allah is warning you O Atheists of a doom at hand, which will surely happen,

A day whereon every man will look

When the believer will look

When the Atheist will look

They both will look on that which their own hands have:

Sent before

Earned of good

Earned of evil

Then every Atheist will sadly cry:

“Would that I were dust!”

Why Atheist says that? Because of the horrors, severity and torment of that day.

——————–

When Punishment = Mercy

Allah is the Supreme Lord; He is the Most Gracious. He metes out reward for believers and punishment for unbelievers.

The reward He assigns is a manifestation of His mercy.

In addition, the punishment endured by the unbelievers originates from Allah’s mercy. For it is certainly part of mercy that evildoer should be punished and that it should not have the same end as the righteous.

In Allah’s Presence

The verse unveil the unseen and describes the scene of the day when the great angel Gabriel, and all the angels standing in ranks before Allah; they greatly esteem Him; no one dares utter a word without prior permission from Him.

In this awesome situation, neither man nor angel can speak without Allah’s permission.

Whatever said will be right because Allah does not permit anyone to speak whom He knows will not be saying what is right.

Back to the Angels, the pure sinless great creatures whom does Allah favor,

When we think that the angels dare not speak without His permission, we are bound to feel how overwhelming the situation is.

Having driven such a feeling, the verse conveys a threatening to the Atheists who have chosen not to hear or see

“That day is a certainty. Let him who will seek a way back to his Lord. We have forewarned you of an imminent scourge, on the day when man will look on what his hands have forwarded and the unbeliever will cry: ‘Would that I were dust!”

Those who raise doubts and question the reality of the Day of Resurrection are here shaken violently:

“That day is a certainty.”

There is no room left for doubt and controversy. Yet there is time for mending one’s erring ways before the fearful watch guard, i.e. hell, becomes a permanent home:

“Let him who will seek a way back to his Lord.”

The warning is severe enough to make the drunken awake:

“We have forewarned you of an imminent scourge.”

It will not be long coming, for man’s life is but a short period.

The scourge is so fearful that the unbelievers, when faced with it, will send up that great cry expressing the wish that they had never lived:

“On the day when man will look on what his hands have forwarded and the unbeliever will cry: ‘Would that I were dust!”

This is the cry of the one who is in great distress, who feels ashamed for what he has been and what he has done. He feels that it is better not to be, or to be something as worthless as dust, than to witness such a fearful occasion.

The terrible position of the unbelievers is the subject of the questions and doubts they raise concerning that fateful tiding.

The verses 78:38-40 in different translations:

QARIB:

38-On that day, when the spirit (gabriel) and the angels stand in ranks they shall not speak, except he to whom the merciful has given permission, and says what is right.

39-That is the day, the truth, so whosoever wills takes a way to his Lord.

40-Indeed, we have forewarned you of an imminent punishment, the day when the person will look upon his works and the unbelievers will say: ‘would that i were dust! ‘

SHAKIR:

38-The day on which the spirit and the angels shall stand in ranks; they shall not speak except he whom the beneficent Allah permits and who speaks the right thing

39-That is the sure day, so whoever desires may take refuge with his Lord

PICKTHAL:

38-On the day when the angels and the spirit stand arrayed, they speak not, saving him whom the beneficent alloweth and who speaketh right.

39-That is the true day. so whoso will should seek recourse unto his Lord.

39-That day will be the sure reality: therefore, whoso will, let him take a (straight) return to his Lord!

40-Verily, we have warned you of a penalty near, the day when man will see (the deeds) which his hands have sent forth, and the unbeliever will say, “woe unto me! would that i were (metre) dust!”

Atheists in Quran (36) are they Winners or Losers

The Atheists have lost the understanding that makes their lives on earth consistent and harmonious with the life of the universe. They are the losers in the Hereafter; Eternal severe Punishment is awaiting for them.

———————————

In short, the Verses 39:62-63 says:

1. Allah is the Creator of all things
2. Allah is Guardian over all things, disposing of them as He will.
3. All things come from Allah
4. Allah is responsible for the provision of all creatures; Allah is a Witness over all things relating to their works.
5. To Allah belong the keys of the heavens and the earth,

In other words, the keys to their storehouses of rain and vegetation and other things belong to Allah.

As for Atheists, those who disbelieve in:

• The signs of Allah in His creation
• The Quran, Allah’s Book,
• The Prophet Muhammad who conveyed the revelations of Allah

Those Atheists are the big losers in the Hereafter; Eternal severe Punishment is awaiting for them.

———————————

The short but essential memos mean:

Allah is the Creator of everything, and of all things, He is the Guardian. His are the keys of the heavens and the earth. Those who deny Allah’s revelations will surely be the losers.

Everything in the universe confirms this truth.

No one can ever claim to create anything. No intelligible being can claim that this universe came into existence without a creator, when everything in it testifies to elaborate planning and a clear purpose behind creation. Nothing in it, from the very small to the very large, is left to chance:

“Of all things He is the Guardian.”

Allah control the heavens and the earth; He conducts their affairs the way He chooses. They operate in agreement with the system He put in place for them.

The big losers:

The Atheists have lost the understanding that makes their lives on earth consistent and harmonious with the life of the universe.

The Atheists have lost the comfort of divine guidance, the beauty of faith, the reassurance of belief and the sweetness of certainty.

On the Day of Judgment, they will lose their own souls and their families. Hence, the term ‘losers’ applies to them in all its shades and connotations.

The verses 39:62-63 in different translations:

QARIB:

62-Allah is the creator of all things, and of all things, he is the guardian.

63-To him belong the keys of the heavens and the earth. Those who disbelieve in the verses of Allah they are the losers.

SHAKIR:

62-Allah is the creator of everything and he has charge over every thing

63-His are the treasures of the heavens and the earth; and (as for) those who disbelieve in the communications of Allah, these it is that are the losers

PICKTHAL:

62-Allah is creator of all things, and he is guardian over all things.

63-His are the keys of the heavens and the earth, and they who disbelieve the revelations of Allah – such are they who are the losers.

YUSUFALI:

62-Allah is the creator of all things, and he is the guardian and disposer of all affairs.

63-To him belong the keys of the heavens and the earth: and those who reject the signs of Allah,- it is they who will be in loss.

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

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFSzGQLEd8U

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1YQbMDLG6g

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zIfAFKeCDMo

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 (14) when they wish they were Muslims

The Atheists, who disbelieve in Muhammad and in the Quran and deny the Day of Resurrection, when they witness their predicament and that of the Muslims, will wish that they had been Muslims.

———————————

The verses 15:1-6 of the Quran talk about the nature of the book, which the Atheists reject as fabrication, adding a threat that they will soon witness a day when they wish they had submitted themselves to Allah and become Muslims.

People who do not believe in the revelation of this unique book, and describe the Quran as fabricated when it is very clear in its import, will come to see a day when they will dearly wish that they had adopted a totally different attitude. They will wish that they had been Muslims.

Allah swore by Alif, Lam, and Ra that:

• These are the verses of the Scripture, the Quran.
• The Quran is the manifest plain Reading book.
• The Quran makes evident what is truth and what is falsehood.
• The Quran makes plain the lawful and the prohibited, the commands and prohibitions.

It may be that the Atheists, who disbelieve in Muhammad and in the Quran and deny the Day of Resurrection, when they witness their predicament and that of the Muslims, will wish that they had been Muslims.

They wish ardently that they were Muslims in this worldly life.

This is because when Allah takes out of hell whoever was a sincere believer and enters them into Paradise, the Atheists wish at that moment they had been a Muslim in this worldly life.

Leave them, O Muhammad, O believers to eat and to enjoy, the world of theirs,

They be diverted, distracted, by hope, of a long life and other matters that keep them away from faith,

This is an implicit threat.

Let them O Muhammad without having any proof or resolve for that which lies ahead

Let false hope beguile them

For they will come to know, the sequel of their affair.

They will come to know upon death and in the grave and on the Day of Judgment what is waiting for them.

This is a severe threat to them.

Allah’s Rule:

• Allah did not destroy any town, its inhabitants, but that it had a known decree, a pre-determined term, after which it He destroyed it.
• Allah destroyed no sinful people of a township, except that there is an appointed term for their destruction.
• No nation can outstrip its term. No nation perishes or is destroyed before the appointed time for its perishing or destruction
• Nor can they lag behind; no nation is given respite when its appointed time comes.

However, the Atheists say as regards to the Prophet Muhammad:

O you, to whom the Quran, has been revealed, as you claim,

O you who claim that Gabriel brought you the Quran,

• Lo! You are indeed possessed
• Lo! You are indeed a maniac!
• You are inventing lies.

The Atheists are too proud to mock the last Prophet Muhammad

Leave them O Muhammad to their carnal desires, eating and enjoying, without reflection, contemplation or thought to what is around them. Leave them with their deluding hopes and deceiving temptations, while life passes away and the opportunity is lost.

Leave them so that you do not waste your own time with those who have condemned themselves when they lost their way in idle hopes and desires.

For they will come to know, their outcome.

The Atheists’ pride makes hope.

Hope always tempts and beguiles man. So much so, that he overlooks the facts of Allah’s existence, fate and the certainty of death.

Man forgets that there is a duty to be fulfilled and a prohibition to be observed.

Man goes even further so as to forget Allah altogether and forget that he himself is going to die and then be resurrected in order to account for his deeds.

The verses 15:1-6 in different translations:

QARIB:

1-Aliflaamra. Those are the verses of the book, the clear koran.

2-It could be that those who disbelieve will wish that they were Muslims.

3-Let them eat and enjoy; and let their hopes deceive them, soon they shall know.

3-Leave them alone, to enjoy (the good things of this life) and to please themselves: let (false) hope amuse them: soon will knowledge (undeceive them).

4-Never did we destroy a population that had not a term decreed and assigned beforehand.

5-Neither can a people anticipate its term, nor delay it.

6-They say: “o thou to whom the message is being revealed! truly thou art mad (or possessed)!

Atheists in Quran (4) they are heedless

The pride of the Atheists that is without any right makes them heedless.
————————————-
The meanings of the verse 7:146
Allah shall turn away from believing in His Words those who Proud and magnify themselves wrongfully without any right.
The pride that is without any right is the pride of the rich, the powerful and the world-rulers toward the poor and the weak. This is the meaning of Allah’s words, “who are proud in the earth without any right.”
Allah shall turn away from believing in His Words those who behave with superiority in the earth without right because acting superior makes their hearts veiled from the Truth.
Allah shall turn away from my signs those who behave arrogantly in the earth without right
Allah will deprive them of understanding the Quran, and following the Messenger Muhammad.
That, turning of them away is because they have denied Allah’ signs and were heedless of them.
If they see the way of righteousness, the way of Islam and goodness, they would not consider it a way, and
If they see the way of error, the way of disbelief, they would consider it a way.
If the Atheists see the way of error, adopt it as a way being active regarding His prohibitions, and passive regarding His commandments, and
They are falsely claiming to have the power and strength to do that which their Egos had a propensity for, and their conceit in that
Their natural selves direct them
Their too proud Egos direct them
To conclude, Allah shall turn away from believing in Quran those who are Proud without any right and are heedless.
The next article will present one scientific verse from the Noble Quran to show you how the pride of the Atheists makes them heedless.
————————————-
The verse 7:146 in different translations:
QARIB:
From my signs I will turn away the unrightfully, arrogant in the land, so that even if they witness every sign they would not believe it. If they see the path of righteousness, they shall not take it as a path; but if they see the path of error, they shall take it for their path because they belied our signs and were inattentive towards them.
SHAKIR:
I will turn away from my communications those who are unjustly proud in the earth; and if they see every sign they will not believe in it; and if they see the way of rectitude they do not take it for a way, and if they see the way of error. they take it for a way; this is because they rejected our communications and were heedless of them
PICKTHAL:
I shall turn away from my revelations those who magnify themselves wrongfully in the earth, and if they see each token believe it not, and if they see the way of righteousness choose it nor for (their) way, and if they see the way of error choose if for (their) way. that is because they deny our revelations and are used to disregard them.
YUSUFALI:
those who behave arrogantly on the earth in defiance of right – them will I turn away from my signs: even if they see all the signs, they will not believe in them; and if they see the way of right conduct, they will not adopt it as the way; but if they see the way of error, that is the way they will adopt. for they have rejected our signs, and failed to take warning from them.

The Atom in Bible vs. Quran vs. Science

One of the inherited doctrines of humankind is that the “Quran is quoted or borrowed from the Bible”

In this series of articles, I will try to explore this Dogma on scientific basis to show up its legitimacy.

In the present topic of Atom, one may ask this:

Is it true that the Quran quoted from the Bible?

In addition, which book precedes the sciences? The book that mentioned the atom and the atomic weight for six times or the book that mentions neither the atom nor the atomic weight?

Before dealing with the topic of the, it may be fruitful to give some statistical hints. The total words in the Bible are 788,280 while total words in the Quran are 77,473.

It follows that, the Bible is more than 10 times the Quran referring to the number of words.

In other words, the Bible has the potential of more than 10 times than the Quran to exhibit its goods. Back to the Atom and Atomic weight, they are not mentioned in the Bible and they are mentioned six times in the Quran.

—————————————

the Atom and Atomic weight in the Bible:

When we search the Bible; we find that

1) No results would be found for atom,

2) No results would be found for atomic weight 3) No results would be found for subatomic Atomic weight. It follows that, the Bible does not mention the “Atom” or the “Atomic Weight” or the “Sub-Atomic Weight” On the other hand, the Quran is the first written book on the earth that mentions the “atom”, “atomic weight”, and “Sub-Atomic Weight”

—————————————

Atom in the Quran:

The existence of particles smaller than the Atom: In ancient times, a well-known theory named ‘Theory of Atomism’ was widely acknowledged. Democritus, the Greek about 23 centuries ago, originally anticipated this theory. Democritus and the scholars who came after him, postulated that the smallest unit of matter was the atom.

The Arabs used to believe the same. The Arabic word “zarrah” most commonly meant an atom. In recent times, modern scientists have discovered that it is likely to split even an atom. The scientific development of the 20th century shows that the atom splits further to something smaller than the Atom.

 Fourteen centuries ago, this notion would have appeared unusual even to both the Greeks and the Arabs. For both the Atom and “zarrah” was the limit beyond which one could not go further. Nevertheless, the Noble Quran refuses to accept this limit that is put by the Greeks and the Arabs.

In Surah 34:3

“The Unbelievers say, “Never to us will come the Hour”: say, “Nay! but most surely, by my Lord, it will come upon you; – by Him Who knows the unseen – from Whom is not hidden the least little atom in the Heavens or on earth: nor is there anything less than that, or greater, but (all) is recorded in a clear and profound book”.
 
This verse replied the Unbelievers who denied the “Hour” (the Day of Judgment and the afterlife).

The verse refers to the Omniscience of Allah,

Allah knows everything both hidden and apparent.

Allah is aware of everything, including what is smaller or bigger than the atom.

Thus, the verse 34:3 clearly shows that it is possible for something smaller than the atom to exist.

This scientific fact has discovered after the revelation of the Quran by 1350 years.

The subatomic weight in the Noble Quran: In Surah 10:61 “In whatever business thou mayest be, and whatever portion thou mayest be reciting from the Qur’an,- and whatever deed ye (mankind) may be doing,- We are witnesses thereof when ye are deeply engrossed therein. Nor is hidden from thy Lord (so much as) And not the weight of an atom on the earth or in heaven the sky escapeth your Lord, nor what is less than that or greater than that , but it is recorded ( written ) in a clear profound record (Book) “.

In Surah 34:22

“Say (O Muhammad): ” Call upon those whom ye assert (set up) besides Allah: they have no power – not the weight of an atom – in the heavens or on earth; no (sort of) share have they therein, nor is any of them a helper to Allah.” This is the Quranic teachings that give us a productive scientific hint about the subatomic weight,

Furthermore, the Quran gives us an advice to use this scientific hint in our life. How small the atom is?

If we know that every work we are doing even if it is smaller than an atom will be recorded and we will see it in the afterlife and either get rewarded or punished for it, then tell me how would be the style of mankind’s life if we believe in these Quranic teachings. If we read this verse in Surah 99:6 “On that Day will men proceed in companies sorted out, to be shown the Deeds that they had done” This verse determines the final outcome for each of us. In Surah 99:7 “Then shall anyone who has done an atom’s weight of good, see it!” In Surah 99:8 “And anyone who has done an atom’s weight of evil, shall see it.” In conclusion, the Quran is the first book On Earth that mentions these three topics; 1) The Atom, 2) The Atomic weight and 3) The subatomic weight. No book before the Quran mentioned these three topics together. The thing is that the Quran is not a scientific book to give us detailed sophisticated scientific expression.

Nevertheless, the Quran uses these three topics for faith and religious purposes.

This unique style of the Quran is just to make you aware of three very important issues; they are:

1) Allah know everything, whatever it is, even if it is too smaller than the subatomic weight,

2) Our work even if it is too smaller than the subatomic weight is recorded and we will see it in the afterlife and

3) In the afterlife, the reward or punishment for our work will be the most fair because it weighs our deeds even if they are smaller than the subatomic weight. Good rewards and the forever-paradise for the good work. “Whoever does an atom’s weight of good will see it.” Bad punishments and the forever fire for the bad work. “And whoever does an atom’s weight of evil will see it.” Not only that, but Allah is the most generous; Allah will double the reward for the good deed. In Surah 4:40 “Allah is never unjust in the weight of an atom: if there is any good (done) He doubleth it, and giveth from His own presence a great reward.” It follows that whoever does an atom’s weight of good will see it and get rewarded double time for it.

—————————————

Back to our main issue; one may ask this: Is the Quran quoted from the Bible. In addition, which book precedes the sciences? The book which mentioned the atom , the atomic weight and the subatomic weight 6 times or the book which does not mention at all neither the atom or the atomic weight or the subatomic weight?

The Cow in Bible vs. Quran

In the Bible, God says: 1) the lion will eat straw like the ox; 2) you will bake your bread over cow manure instead of human excrement, etc. In addition, The Lord God will use a razor hired from beyond the River.

On the other hand, the Quran talks about the Story of the cow and the revival of the killed Israelite etc.

————————————————————————————————

The Cow is mentioned 34 in the Bible and four times in the Quran.

The Bible talks about 11 issues related to the cows; they are:

1) The lion will eat straw like the ox.

2) God will let you bake your bread over cow manure

3) God will use a hired razor

The Cow in the Quran

1) The Story of the cow and the revival of the killed Israelite:

One Israelite was found killed. All the Israelites gathered around Moses asking him to find out who killed the man. Moses asked Allah. Allah commanded the Israelites to slaughter a cow, any cow. The Israelites yelled at Moses: are you fooling! Moses said this is Allah’s command. Then they ask about the cow age, color, marital status and they made it difficult to find out such a cow. Finally they did. Allah commanded Moses to lightly knock the killed man with a part of the slaughtered cow. The killed man woke up and told them who killed him.

This story has some deep theological significance; Allah showed up to the Israelites that

• The cow is a sign for Allah the Creator,
• The cow is by no means a god and
• Allah is able to woke-up the dead.

This is because the Israelites worshiped the cow and the ox and considered the cow a god.

Also, the Israelites deny the afterlife.

In addition, this story is not found in the Bible.

Surah 2: 67-73

67- and when Moses said to his people: surely Allah commands you that you should sacrifice a cow; they said: do you ridicule us? He said: I seek the protection of Allah from being one of the ignorant (fool)!”

68- They said: call on your Lord for our sake to make it plain to us what she (the cow) is. Moses said: he says, surely she is a cow neither advanced in age nor too young, of middle age between that (and this); do therefore what you are commanded

69- They said: call on your lord for our sake to make it plain to us what her color is. Moses said: he says, surely she is a yellow cow; her color is intensely yellow, giving delight to the beholders

70- they said: call on your lord for our sake to make it plain to us what she is, for surely to us the cows are all alike, and if Allah please we shall surely be guided aright

71- Moses said: he says, surely she is a cow not made submissive that she should plough the land, nor does she irrigate the tilth; sound, without a blemish in her. they said: now you have brought the truth; so they sacrificed her, though they had not the mind to do (it)

72- And when you killed a man, then you disagreed with respect to that, and Allah was to bring forth that which you were going to hide

73- so we said: strike the (dead body) with part of the (sacrificed cow), thus Allah brings the dead to life, and he shows you his signs so that you may understand

 

2) What is forbidden to eat, the male, the female, or the newborn cow?

The idolater Ignorant Arabs before Islam had some diverse religious traditions about the cows.

Some believed that it is eating the male cow (bull) is forbidden

Others believed that eating the female cow is forbidden.

Another Ignorant idolater Arabs believed that eating the first newborn cow is forbidden.

The Quran warns anyone who is saying that; the Quran says:

• Is this Allah’s commandments or a forged invented lie?
• Were you witnesses when Allah enjoined you this?

This issue is not found in the Bible.

Surah 6:144

And of camels a pair, and cows a pair 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

 

3) Joseph interpreted the Egyptian\s King’s dream of the fat cows and the seven lean cows

The Bible says that the lean cows were ugly.

The Quran does not say that.

In order to know the difference between the story of Joseph and Pharaoh in Bible vs. Quran, I recommend you smart reader to read the Story of the Prophet Joseph, the son of the Prophet Jacob it in both books.

Surah 12:43 and 46

43- The king (of Egypt) said: “i do see (in a vision) seven fat kine (cows), whom seven lean ones devour, and seven green ears of corn, and seven (others) withered. o ye chiefs! Expound to me my vision if it be that ye can interpret visions.”

46- The chief cupbearer said “O Joseph! O man of truth! Expound to us (the dream) of seven fat kine (cows) whom seven lean ones devour, and of seven green ears of corn and (seven) others withered: that i may return to the people, and that they may understand.”

————————————————————————————————

Back to the main issue of my series of articles (1-39); this is my question to you smart readers: “Is the Quran quoted from the Bible “?

Professor Dr. Ibrahim Khalil wrote this article

http://www.articlesbase.com/science-articles/the-cow-in-bible-and-quran-128385.html

Angels in Islam (33) who believed in Angels?

The faith is one package, it is ALL or NONE; if you deny anyone of it, you are UNBELIEVERS and you will dwell in the Eternal Hell in the Afterlife.

———————————-

The meanings of the verse 2:285:

The Messenger Muhammad believes in what was revealed to him from his Lord (Quran), and the believers; each one alone in totality believes in:

1)    Allah, witnessing His Oneness

2)    Allah’s Angels,

3)    Allah’s Books, all of them and each of them, and

4)    Allah’s Messengers, and they make no distinction between any of His messengers; they say: we do not disbelieve in any of his messengers. They say: we do not distinguish between any of Allah’s Messengers either by rejecting some or accepting others. Nor do we doubt that they are upon the truth and sent with the truth.

(They are not like the Jews and the Christians who are believing in some messengers and disbelieving in others)

And then the Prophet Muhammad said and so do the believers:

• We hear, what we have been enjoined to hear and accept, and obey the command of our Lord
• We ask you: Grant us Your forgiveness, our Lord; forgive us for the discourse of our souls, our Lord
• To you, our Lord, is the homecoming, unto you is the return after death. That is, the return at the Resurrection.

 

It follows that it essential to believe in:

1) Allah at first

2) The Angels, all of them. Do not say that one of them is an enemy (like the Jews who say that Gabriel is their enemy)

3) All the books that are revealed from Allah like the book of Abraham, the Genuine Torah revealed unto the Prophet Moses, the book revealed unto the Prophet David and the Genuine Gospel revealed unto the Prophet Jesus.

4) All the Messengers and Prophets without any distinction; it essential to believe that all the Messengers and Prophets are the best ever among human beings. They are chosen by Allah. They all have done their job conveying Allah’s message to their people, folk, tribe, and nation. The principle message of all of them was: There is No god save Allah.

The principle message was the principle teaching of Adam, Noah, Hood, Salih, Abraham, Lot, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Job, Shu’aib, Moses, Moses, Aaron, David, Solomon, Elias, Elisha, Jonah, Zachariah, John, Jesus and Muhammad.

It should be emphasized that the above 1), 2) 3) and 4) is one package, it is ALL or NONE

According to Islamic teaching, if you reject or deny anyone of the above, then you are UNBELIEVERS and you will dwell in the Eternal Hell forever in the Afterlife.

Allah and His Angels are our witnesses that I wrote it and you read it.

The verse 2:285 in different translations:

QARIB:

The messenger believes in what has been sent down to him from his lord, and so do the believers. Each believes in Allah and his angels, his books, and his messengers, we do not differentiate between any one of his messengers. They say: ‘we hear and obey. (We ask) your forgiveness lord, and to you is the arrival.

SHAKIR:

The messenger believes in what has been revealed to him from his lord, and (so do) the believers; they all believe in Allah and his angels and his books and his messengers; we make no difference between any of his messengers; and they say: we hear and obey, our lord! Thy forgiveness (do we crave), and to thee is the eventual course

PICKTHAL:

The messenger believeth in that which hath been revealed unto him from his lord and (so do) believers. Each one believeth in Allah and his angels and his scriptures and his messengers – we make no distinction between any of his messengers – and they say: we hear, and we obey. (Grant us) thy forgiveness, our lord. Unto thee is the journeying.

YUSUFALI:

The messenger believeth in what hath been revealed to him from his lord, as do the men of faith. Each one (of them) believeth in Allah, his angels, his books, and his messengers. “We make no distinction (they say) between one and another of his messengers.” and they say: “we hear, and we obey: (we seek) thy forgiveness, our lord, and to thee is the end of all journeys.”

Angels in Islam (21) their second Witness

The Angels whose number is countless bear witness of Muhammad’s prophet hood and of the Quran as being revealed by Allahز

————————————————

The idolaters among the Arabs were confused about Muhammad, they were still suspicious if he is genuine prophet or not!

To make it clear for them, Allah has revealed the verses 4:163-166 that mean:

Lo! We (Allah) inspired you O Muhammad as We inspired Noah and the entire prophets after Noah,

We inspire you O Muhammad as We inspired:

• Abraham
• Ishmael
• Isaac
• Jacob and the tribes (the sons of Jacob),
• Jesus
• Job
• Jonah
• Aaron, and
• Solomon,
• We gave unto David the Inscribed Book (the Psalms)

We inspired you O Muhammad We inspired messengers which We have not mentioned by name in the Quran.

And Allah spoke directly unto Moses.

It is said that Allah sent eight thousand prophets in total; He sent at least one messenger or prophet to every nation on the face of the earth.

Allah has sent all these messengers:

• of good cheer, giving the good news of Paradise for those who believe, and
• of warning of hell for those who disbelieve in Allah,

Allah did that in order that mankind might have no argument on the Day of Judgment against Allah after sending the messengers, such that they cannot say: You have not sent us any messenger.

Allah is ever Mighty in His kingdom. He is ever Wise, in His actions.

 

Then, the idolaters among the Arabs asked the Jews if Muhammad is a Prophet or not.

The idolaters asked the Jews because the Jews are the people of Allah’ scripture.

When the Jews were asked about Muhammad’s prophet hood and they denied him, although they knew that he is the last prophet, when this happened, the following verse of the Noble Quran has revealed; it means:

But Allah bears witness:

• of your prophet hood O Muhammad
• of what He has revealed to you O Muhammad (the Quran), He has revealed it through His knowledge

And also, the entire Angels bear witness.

The entire world of the Angels whose number is countless bear witness too.

This is the second witness of the Angels.

O you smart reader, where you are from this second witness of countless billions of Angels that will lead you to either Paradise or Hell

————————————————

The verses 4:163-166 (PICKTHAL translation):

163) lo! We inspire thee as we inspired Noah and the prophets after him, as we inspired Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob and the tribes, and Jesus and Job and Jonah and Aaron and Solomon, and as we imparted unto David the psalms;

164) and messengers we have mentioned unto thee before and messengers we have not mentioned unto thee; and Allah spake directly unto Moses;

165) messengers of good cheer and of warning, in order that mankind might have no argument against Allah after the messengers. Allah was ever mighty, wise.

166) but Allah (himself) testifieth concerning that which he hath revealeth unto thee; in his knowledge hath he revealed it; and the Angels also testify. and Allah is sufficient witness.

Angels in Islam (20) their first Witness

The Angels whose number is countless do bear witness that there is no God save Allah.

—————————-

In the verse 3:18, Allah declared His divine Oneness, saying:

Allah, is witness that there is no God save Him.

Also, the Angels do bear witness that there is no God save Allah.

And those of knowledge, from among the Messengers, the prophets and the believers, do bear witness to there is no God save Allah.

It is Allah who is:

• The Almighty in His Kingdom and in vengeance against those who do not believe in Him,
• The Wise in His actions, He has commanded that none shall be worshipped except Him.
• Constantly and uniquely maintaining his creation with justice

Allah has made it clear to His creation through proofs and signs, that there is no god and none that is truly worshipped in existence, except Him.

The entire Messengers and prophets from Adam, Noah up to the last Prophet Muhammad made it clear to their folks and people that there is no god save Allah, the Almighty and the Wise; and none that is truly worshipped in existence except Him.

Again, who are the witness for all of the above?

1)    Allah

2)    The entire world of the Angels whose number is countless

3)    The entire Messengers and Prophets from Adam, Noah up to Muhammad

4)    The entire believers who obeyed their Messengers and Prophets from Adam, Noah up to Muhammad

See how many billions of witnesses bear witness in the life of this world and will bear witness in the Afterlife that there is no God save Allah.

And, above all of them and before all of them the Almighty Creator, Allah, Himself, is witness that there is no God save Him.

Even if no one else bears witness, Allah is sufficient as a witness!

Now, where you are from this witness?

Where you are from this testimony that will lead to either Paradise or Hell?

—————————-

The verse 3:18 of the Noble Quran in different translations

QARIB:

Allah bears witness that there is no god except he, and so do the Angels and the knowledgeable. He upholds justice there is no god except he, the mighty, the wise.

SHAKIR:

Allah bears witness that there is no god but he, and (so do) the Angels and those possessed of knowledge, maintaining his creation with justice; there is no god but he, the mighty, the wise

PICKTHAL:

Allah (himself) is witness that there is no Allah save him. And the Angels and the men of learning (too are witness), maintaining his creation in justice, there is no Allah save him the almighty, the wise.

YUSUFALI:

There is no god but he: that is the witness of Allah, his Angels, and those endued with knowledge, standing firm on justice. There is no god but he, the exalted in power, the wise.
