#38: Jay DEBUNKS MECCA 15 WAYS in 30 MINUTES, followed by Q&A!

Ойын-сауық

Having finished a series of 37 episodes on the historical problems with the Origins of Islam, Jay now consolidates the 3 primary areas of concern; namely, Mecca, Muhammad and the Qur'an using 3 talks he gave a few weeks ago on these 3 areas to a group of Doctors and Dentists from the "International Christian Medical and Dentistry Association" (ICMDA) an organization with over 60,000 Doctors, Nurses and Dentists.
This first talk, moderated by Dr Peter Saunders, the president of ICMDA , centered on a question he entertained concerning the historical problems with the city of Mecca.
Jay responded by pinpointing 15 historical areas of concern:
1) If this is the oldest city in history, then why is so little known about it before the 8th century?
2) If this city is so central to the Qur'an's narrative, then why is there only 1 reference to it in the entire Qur'an (Surah 48:24)?
3) Why do all the myriad of references in the Traditions of a fertile place with much vegetation and water not fit Mecca?
4) Why do the 65 geographical locations in the Qur'an fit places 600 miles to the north of Mecca, and not the city itself?
5) Why is the Arabic used in the Qur'an not from Mecca at all, but is Nabataean Aramaic, which was used over 600 miles to the north?
6) Why can't we find any remains of the almost 300 prophets who were buried in Mecca, especially considering the enormous buildings which are being constructed there?
7) Why is the earliest documented reference to Mecca not until 741 AD, a good 100 years after Muhammad supposedly lived there?
8) Why do the great geographer Ptolemy's 2nd century maps not have one reference to Mecca on them?
9) Why do all of the 7th century Qiblas face Petra, and don't even begin to face Mecca until after 715 AD, almost 100 years too late?
10) Why has Montgomery Watt's 'Trade Route Theory' about Meccan trade been proven wrong, as all the trade was maritime, and not across Arabia?
11) Why did all the trade go up the Western African coast of the Red Sea, and none of it via the Eastern Arabian coast close to where Mecca is located?
12) Why did none of the 12 civilizations surrounding Mecca know anything about this city prior to the 8th century?
13) Why was Mecca chosen in a desert location with no water or food to support any population of people or trades?
14) Why are the 5 stages of the Hajj (Pilgrimage) currently employed in Mecca not original, but were all borrowed from either Petra or Jerusalem?
15) If Mecca is the oldest city in history, then someone, somewhere, at some time should have known about this city, yet no-one anywhere, nor at any time has, proving that it never existed at the time of Muhammad, nor during early Islam.
Following this talk, Dr Saunders asked a number of brilliant questions which were posed by some of the Doctors and Dentists. Watch how Dr Smith responds to them, as they are probably the same questions you may have.

    I was pondering about this, creating the parallels and reducing Islam to non-trinitarian Christianity with a belief in Jesus as the Messiah who will return to establish God's Kingdom as narrated by the Qur'an, this makes a strong basis on having the discussion on how Muslims are following Jesus and are their traditions telling them anything about being followers of Jesus. It seems the Hadith are missing the fundamental doctrine that helps them believe in Messiah and the last day.

    The reason they unloaded i Yemen, I’ve been told, is the sail they had on the ships at the time. It was the triangular sails with the broad side up. They could not sail up the red sea with these sails so that is why the nabateans could work as traders and transport the goods on camels for them. Might that be a reason for them to unload in Yemen?

  • @pfanderfilms

    @pfanderfilms

    10 ай бұрын

    The inefficient sails would explain why the traders had to come into port every evening, and thus the reason for the 5 ports all equal-distant from each other on the African Western side of the Red Sea, but not on the Eastern Arabian side. The problem with unloading in Yemen, is that you still then have to transport the items 1,250 miles by land, which requires food and water and protection, which was so expensive that to transport a ton of goods only 50 miles by land would be the same price as 1,250 miles by sea. Land was just too expensive and too dangerous, and that is why we still transport goods today by sea even today. But finally, if they did go over land like you suggest above, where is the evidence? Where are there any receipts of goods going that route? None have been found. Dr Crone researched the receipts of goods coming in from India and further East starting from the 2nd century and continuing right up to the 7th century and found that they all went by sea, for the reasons I listed above above. The fact that there was thriving sea based trade along the Red Sea for centuries before Islam seems to debunk your theories about the inefficient sails.

Something of import to add to the sailing I found while looking into Simon the cirene. Not sure what cirene town but I did find a place with similar name in North Africa so I charted some nautical stuff and saw that sailing to Jerusalem from middle of north Africa that 6 to 7 days can be sailed whereas journey in land would take upto 3 weeks. A boat sailing with consistency with night and day crews would generally be the fastest, cheapest, carry more cargo as noted and also safest with exception of storms, beaching, and pirates. Sailing would be done day and night and no need to stop to sleep, can sleep while sailing. The Mediterranean ideal weather conditions for most sailing. Would have been easy to talk about the one who died on the cross and resurrected, while on a boat. People talk.

    Definite article in northern Arabic makes sense. The ancient Egyptian language had a definite article, which was unique for the area. More south, languages did not have a definite article. Demotic became written Arabic. Ancient Egyptian didn’t simply get cut off from history, it spread in various forms. Including its grammar, adapted by people. It would have been a huge influence on everyone in the area through history.

    ​​@pfanderfilms Hello Jay. Many thanks for all this great info about Islam but also about fundamental christian facts. Your videos are very well made and you are a real teacher. But with each new knowledge that requires correction, videos are loosing more or less validity!? Also you must be a genius to be able to find a specific info in videos. In my opinion it would be great if you could create an online study platform. Pease take your slide pictures and add the main relevant text. If there is more detailed background info please use links, tooltips, bibliographies etc. to have finally an interactive "book" that can be updated at any time. Many thanks, Willy from Austria

    My question; why say Mecca? 2nd question; what about Medina? I recognise Medina as the power base for Abu Bakr, and the inconsistency in Tabari's account, but if a shift was made from Petra, why to that hellscape of Mecca? Why not elevate Medina, or another location?

    The pilgrimage at the Valley of Baca in the Old Testament chapter Psalm 84:3-6 as a reference to Mecca, similar to the Quran at Surah 3:96 In the Sharḥ al-Asāṭīr, a commentary on the Samaritan midrashic chronology of the Patriarchs, it is claimed that Mecca was built by the sons of Nebaioth, the eldest son of Ismāʿīl or Ishmael. Thamudic inscriptions Some Thamudic inscriptions which were discovered in the south Jordan contained names of some individuals such as ʿAbd Mekkat (عَبْد مَكَّة‎, "Servant of Mecca").

    This video demonstrates how formidable and powerful the evident against the existence of Mecca before the 10th century A.D. is. The deafening silence amongst the Muslim scholars in the “Court Room of Public Opinion” is proof enough that Mecca - the “supposedly” first human inhabited city - the original home of the 90-feet tall Islamic Adam and Eve, did not exist before the time of Mohammed and his personal angel (Jibril).

    Jay, the contradiction is that It could not have been both a centre of trade and a sanctuary. Sanctuaries were usually away from the settlements. It was simply a place people went to probably once a year. Yet the SIN tells us that Mecca was both. A big hole and I cannot understand why Muslims do not ask this question of their scholars.

Because of how earliest PHOTOS show how 1st Pillar (only 1) was extremely tiny and surrounded by houses. No space! Same with Zamzam, a tiny well which is sometimes nearly dry. 🤔🤔🤔 No water for masses. Even ancient or old masses!

    A few talking points... Allah is all knowing, but the concept of time and mathematics are not included in the 'all', because praying 50 times in a 24 hour timeframe cannot be done even if Allah knows best! Then talking back to Allah, because you don't agree with Allah (two no no's right there) because Moses, whom, Mohammad never met, and who is according to islamic traditions in no position what so ever to tell Mohammad time over time again that Allah is wrong and needs a talking to... In 'real life' Mohammad would have punished Moses and most certainly not have Moses tell Mohammad what to say to Allah, so therefore IT MUST BE A DREAM (within a dream, because flying (?) to a place that meant nothing UNLESS the city PETRA was actually Mecca as described not more than ONCE or TWICE in the qu'ran)...

Of course the Abbasid Caliphate was also responsible for creating the qu'ran as a way to unite and govern the Arab clans, because these savages were more busy killing each other than working for the Caliphate's cause; world domination! But because the location of Mecca is so far away from Pakistan and that combined with the stolen stories from the Jewish Tenach, they just couldn't comprehend the mistakes they were making during the fabrication of the islamic cult Mohammedanism!

    Jay, that idea that Christianity looked deprecated because of the doubts about the Bible's authenticity and evolution, in the 19C, was that really the problem? It could factor in at the time,. In the UK the dehumanizing aspects of the Industrial revolution seems to be a big factor, then the catastrophe of the World War I, where there were such appalling things happening, such waste of life and folly. Sad that somehow God was blamed for that war, when it was essentially human pride driving the various nations that way. The churches were a bit slow to care for those battered by industrialization ,,, The pentecostal movement from the early 20C was showing from God that God is still doing the supernatural stuff, and very real, in spite of for instance biological evolution or inevitable human involvement in producing the Bible, with our humanness.

    Jay mentioned in passing that Islam is descended from Arian Christianity. That can’t be right because Arians believed in the divinity of Jesus and his being the son of God. Their differences lay in theological hair-splitting about the natures of Jesus and Holy Ghost. I believe the Ebionites were were the predecessors of Islam. They believed that Jesus was the human Messiah. There were several Messiahs in Roman Judea. Jesus was the only successful one, as it were. The Ebionites were known to have lived in Nabatea up to at least the 4th Century and persisted to least 1000. It is easy to imagine some transposing practices from Jerusalem to Petra. They also account for the Jewish Christians posited by many scholars. It’s easy to imagine Petran Ebionites changing their beliefs and practices over time to create an imperialistic proto-Islam. Unfortunately, the sources about these groups are scarce (or suppressed?)

    Jesus loves Muslims and wants them to come to him. I cannot imagine how hard it must be to question what you've been taught your whole life. People define themselves by their community, families and traditions. They believe, and that shows their loyalty and faithfulness, but if those excellent qualities are misplaced, then they are not a credit to the person especially if they've been presented with truth that clearly demonstrates that some of what they believe is a lie. If some is a lie, all must be questioned. Otherwise, that person is not following God at all but is following man because they love and believe a lie, and God does not lie.
