Adam’s freethinking revolves around the total rejection of religious authorities, but that doesn’t necessarily mean rejection of spirituality or the existence of God.
Originally in Arabic language, his KZread channels offer support for people who are facing a faith crisis, whether that be currently losing their faith, or they have already left their religion entirely.
This channel, however, created in English to provide a similar experience and offer support to the English speaking world. There are a lot of second and third generation migrants, from an Arabic background, who inherited the religion but not much of the mother-tongue. The information in English is thus needed.
This channel does not promote or uses any hate speech in any shape or form. I acknowledge and respect diversity and inclusion. At the same time, I believe in freedom of speech, the power of knowledge and raising awareness.

Said they will make similar or better verses 😃
Thanks 👍🏾👍😃
Its a lie to children
I can see Islamic scholars have no control of Islamic standards of narratives. the internet is collapsing Islam by using their own taqqiya of narratives. Taqqiya is a fertile ground for Apologists to collapse Islam. Definitely, Islamic scholars have no plans to change because muslims will have more doubt about the Quran and Islam. They are in difficult position
Am a bit confused here. I have heard muslins say the koran came down from heaven as a book. That it was not written by men.
All are about lies, nothing comes out of their without lie, taqqiya that's why they didn't want people to talk about it otherwise they will kill you but internet is exposing them in and out
The quran does not exist. A quran or one of many quran is the truth. We already know the contents of the different qurans is copied from myths, legends and propaganda works circulating the areas so of course there’s going to be many different versions. This idea of one quran being compiled from the witnesses of a prophet are not even realistic. I don’t think that alleged prophet existed either but was more like a combination of people turned into one man, just like the writers who wrote to local churches explaining the religion are now considered a god named allah. The We and Us in the quran are mostly the men who wrote the letters that ended up in a many of the qurans.
I actually found the missing verses, the very beginning of the Quran, behold Surah 0: "Once Upon A Time..."
Here are some examples of notable differences between the modern Qur'an (1924 Cairo edition) and early Uthmanic manuscripts. While many of these differences are minor, they provide insight into the textual variations observed over time. Orthographic Variations: The use of different scripts and orthographic conventions can be seen. For example, in early manuscripts, the word for "be" (kun) might be written without the vowel marks that are present in the Cairo edition. Diacritical Marks: Early Uthmanic manuscripts did not use diacritical marks, which indicate vowels. This led to different possible readings of the text. For example, the word "فتبينوا" (fatabayyanu) in Surah 49:6 in the Cairo edition, meaning "verify," could be read as "فتثبتوا" (fatathabbatu), meaning "ascertain," in early manuscripts without diacritical marks. Word Variations: In some cases, there are differences in specific words. For instance: Surah 2:132 in the Cairo edition has "ووصى" (wa-awṣā, "and he enjoined"), whereas some early manuscripts have "وأوصى" (wa-awṣā, "and he enjoined") without the waw at the beginning. Additional Words: In Surah 33:6, the Cairo edition includes "وأزواجه أمهاتهم" (wa-azwājuhu ummahātuhum, "and his wives are their mothers"). Some early manuscripts do not have this phrase, indicating it might have been a marginal note that was later incorporated into the text. Differences in Recitations (Qira'at): The Cairo edition primarily follows the Hafs 'an 'Asim recitation. Other recitations, like Warsh 'an Nafi', have different vowelization and, occasionally, word forms. For example: Surah 1:4 is read as "ملك يوم الدين" (Maliki yawmi ad-din, "Master of the Day of Judgment") in the Warsh recitation, whereas the Cairo edition reads it as "مالك يوم الدين" (Maliki yawmi ad-din, "King of the Day of Judgment"). These examples highlight the types of variations found between the Cairo edition and earlier manuscripts or different recitation traditions. While they do not usually change the overall meaning significantly, they do demonstrate that the text of the Qur'an has undergone standardization processes over time.
I'm not sure why this is even a controversy. Even among the four Uthmanic Qur'ans sent to different cities, there are 60 differences. The modern Qur'an (1924 Cairo edition) has about 2,000 differences. These are minor and do not significantly alter the meaning, but the idea of perfect preservation is incorrect. Islamic scholars use the term "essentially identical," not "identical." The historical evidence shows that the Qur'an, like other ancient texts, has experienced some variations over time.
If you could bring the missing bits of the quoran, they wouldn't be missing.
Okay man all the things are false and u r true.....how can u debunk other religions when ur own churches changed gospel for their personal agendas....
Show the evidence my guy...
allah did not even know how many wives Muhammad had.. What does it prove--- allah is a false god created by Satan using Muhammad.
This is so weak. This guy is literally saying all of the companions had the same level of knowledge on the Quran that everyday all the companions sat with Muhammad and learned everything at the same time, took notes etc etc. This is the best argument you have. Companions differed on a lot of issues due to lack of knowledge, certain rulings and yes the Quran. Why? Because they all couldn’t be around the prophet 24/7 but in the end they all agreed in the Uthmanic manuscript which is attested by academic non Muslim scholars is preserved due to manuscript evidence. I suggest you read more books instead of coming up with lazy arguments without critical thinking. Oh and Allah himself in the Quran he abrogates verses or cause to be forgotten! Later development? It’s in the Quran sheesh. 2:106 We do not abrogate a verse or cause it to be forgotten except that We bring forth [one] better than it or similar to it. Do you not know that Allāh is over all things competent? You just provided evidence to what Allah already said in the Quran.
"Bring it"???? isn't that what they say about the Injil, where they say the Injil is not the same as the Gospel, so go ahead buddy bring the Injil please.
We must to Leave islam to save the world free from higab
dear i always use to reply you and people like you that bring something abrogated, misinterpreted, altered from scripture, but you couldn't. the book of hadith is like ramayan, mahabaharta in Hinduism which has changed the message of brahma revealed in vedas and bhagwan gita, same in christianity the luther Martin book against the Gospel and talmud against Torah in Judaism. i challenge you bring proof of abrogation from Quran not the stories written after 300 years
They don't allow people to think rationally. They justify violence to preserve their blind belief
Yes quraan challenges fools like you and everyone out here who says that quraan is not from Allah. لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا ٱللَّٰهُ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ ٱللَّٰهِ There is no deity except Allah and Muhammad (ﷺ) is his messenger. Again same lies as always against Umar Farooq (ra). It was Allah (swt) who revealed surat based upon his thought not Umar himself. It is with Allah whom to acknowledge and to whom not.
Excellent. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!

Don't be fooled. All religions are big scams.
Agreed!
The greatest Hoax is Christianity which was secretly invented by the Roman Empire in the fourth century by writing 27 fake,forged,falsified and fabricated books in the New Testament full of false doctrines,false teachings,lies,counterfeits,fables,forgery,sham,scam,fraud,fallacies,fabrications,crap,quakery,,falsificationscss and falsehoods deceiving ignorant and gullible peoples until now.
The verses of stoning and breastfeeding for an adult ten times was revealed, and it was written on a leaf that was kept beneath a bed in my (Aa'ishah's) house. When the messenger of Allah fell sick, we were preoccupied with his death, and a tame sheep came and ATE it. 😆 😂 Narrated: Imam Ahmad in al-Musnad (43/343). The Quran is "preserved" in the belly of a tame sheep...😂
Quran was transmitted exactly like the hadith. They are all hadiths
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
How can they justify abrogation in their book of “facts” 😂

I left Islam and became a Christian for two reasons. First: due to the presence of abrogated verses in the Quran which is called Nasekh and Mansukh . Allah deleted some of the verses in Quran that were revealed earlier and replaced them with new verses. If this claim is true, God is not all-knowing and omnipotent as Muslims claim, and evolves with time, or the verses of the Qur'an are created by Muhammad's mind. Second: Satan has the power to disguise himself as he disguised himself as a snake and deceived Adam and Eve. How do I know that the devil did not disguise himself as the Angel Gabriel and did not deceive Muhammad? Unparalleled cutting of arms and legs of nonbelievers and trampling of women and buying and selling of slaves cannot be from God who is called to be : Kind, Compassionate , forgiving and merciful.
Watch Misquoting Jesus by Bart Ehrman, and you will see that Bible was written by anonimus authors, who have nothing to do with disciples of Jesus, and that it contain 30000 mistakes and contradictions.
Irrelevant. Why do you assume that I’m Christian?!
We do not abrogate a verse or cause it to be forgotten except that We bring forth [one] better than it or similar to it. Do you not know that Allah is over all things competent? - Chapter 2 Verse 106. And regarding the mu'awwidhatayn, assuming that the report that Ibn Ma‘ood denied that the Mi‘wadhatayn were part of the Qur’an is saheeh, what proof do you have that he did not later change his opinion. And in the recitation of ‘Aasim from Ibn Mas‘ood the Mi‘wadhatayn are confirmed (as part of the Qur’an). This recitation is saheeh and was narrated soundly (via saheeh isnaads) from Ibn Mas‘ood. So this only proves that initially he used to deny they were part of the Qur’an, but when it became clear to him that they are part of the Qur’an, he wrote them in his Mushaf and recanted his earlier opinion.
What about homosexuality in Jewish religion ?
Islam is designed to resist change. Bida' means that any 'innovation' in religion is forbidden. Therefore, Islam will become less and less relevant as time passes. Eventually, Islam will disappear, like the dinosaurs. I believe that the internet combined with the digital world will destroy Islam. الإسلام مصمم لمقاومة التغيير. 'الابتكار' في الدين ممنوع. لذلك ، سيصبح الإسلام أقل أهمية مع مرور الوقت. في النهاية ، سيختفي الإسلام ، مثل الديناصورات. أعتقد أن الإنترنت جنبا إلى جنب مع العالم الرقمي سوف يدمر الإسلام.
No Trinity confusion in Quran. No pagan concepts: Original Sin, blood atonement & begotten son are not in Quran. Quran calls to worship the God of Abraham, Isaac, Moses & Jesus. Conclusion: Quran is preserved & is from The God/ Allah

Thank you for this, so informative. They really are in denial about this topic aren’t they. ✝️✝️✝️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Another function of the Comforter is: “He shall glorify me,” which implies the presence of a human being to bear evidence. What the Holy Ghost can, at best, do is no more than to install into human minds. This, however, is anything but glorifying. Even granting, for the sake of argument, that the Holy Ghost did actually bear witness through human beings, the question arises whether he did purify Jesus(as) of the false charges laid at his door.The Jews heaped curses upon him and alleged that he had died on the cross, which they regarded according to the Scriptures as an accursed death. Did the Christians, inspired by the Holy Ghost, clear him of this? No! On the contrary, they assisted the Jews in their blasphemous propaganda, by admitting his death on the cross. Furthermore, they imputed to him the most abominable offense, namely, that he called himself the son of God in the literal sense. The Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessing of God be upon him) alone fulfilled these prophetic words of the Gospel. He it was who emphatically pronounced the divine word: “I shall purify thee (O Jesus) of all the false charges imputed to thee by the disbelievers.” (Al-Quran 3:56) How far the Holy Prophet(saw) succeeded in achieving this can be judged from the fact that every Muslim looks upon Jesus (peace be upon him) as the righteous servant of God, as His Prophet. Belief in Jesus(as) forms a part of Muslim’s faith. Another characteristic of the Promised Comforter, as set forth in the Gospel, has proved another stumbling block to the Christians. “That he (the Comforter) may abide with you for ever” gives them the erroneous impression that the Comforter, in order to be immortal, must need be a “spirit” and not a human being, which betrays their ignorance of the Bible itself. The very words of Jesus(as) in this connection will suffice to remove this erroneous idea: “He shall give you another Comforter that he may abide with you for ever”, clearly indicate that the Comforter will abide for ever in a certain sense in which Jesus himself shall not. As a matter of fact, when Jesus(as) spoke of the cessation of his own life and the continuation of that of Comforter, he implicitly referred to the duration of their existence through their teachings and their spiritual influence on mankind. When a Prophet is raised up for the reformation of a people, he is equipped with a two-fold weapon - a code of laws wherewith to regulate the life of man, and a personal magnetism exercising an ennobling influence upon whomsoever he may come in contact with. In both these respects, Jesus(as) has ceased to exist long since, while the Holy Prophet of Islam lives on to this day and shall live on for ever. Jesus(as) came with a set of laws and spiritual force, whereby he effected a considerable reformation among his own people for a time. But, by and by the laws that were suited to the stage of society ceased to be of practical utility when found with the subsequent growth and development of that society, and the spiritual force that had wrought miracles of old, lost its efficacy and vanished. Thus arose the need for another Comforter who should bring with him a perfect law, not for a particular clan or clime but for the whole of the human race. Civilization was, by this time, sufficiently grown up, to receive teachings which went far beyond the mental capacity of the Jews of his time. A perfect law to regulate the whole human society was thus required to replace the inadequate code of Jesus(as). Hazrat Muhammad(saw) was raised to meet the need in reference to which the Holy Quran says: “And We have not sent thee but as an embodiment of mercy for all the worlds (i.e., for all peoples and all ages)”. (Al-Quran 21:108)
What unmistakably points to the identity of Hazrat Muhammad(saw) is the phrase: “he came with ten thousands of saints” and “from his right hand went a fiery law for them.” At the time of the conquest of Mecca, ten thousand holy men followed at his heels and he was the bearer of the law of the Quran. Hence, the prophecy has been wonderfully fulfilled in the person of Holy Prophet Muhammad, (peace and blessings of God be upon him). Arabia is the land of the Promised One A third prophecy is: “The burden upon Arabia. In the forest in Arabia shall ye lodge, O ye travelling companions of Dedanim. The inhabitants of the Land of Tema brought water to him that was thirsty, they prevented with their bread him they fled. For they fled from the swords, from the drawn swords and from the bent bow, from the grievousness of war. For thus hath the Lord said unto me, within a year, according to the years of a hireling, and all the glory of Kedar shall fail; And the residue of number of archers, the mighty men of the children of Kedar, shall diminished: for the Lord God of Israel hath spoken it.” (Isaiah 21:13-17) The first point to bear in mind in connection with this prophecy is that Arabia is the scene of the Prophecy. This is most significant. Hazrat Muhammad(saw) appeared in Arabia. Secondly, the prophecy speaks of “Him that fled”. The flight of Hazrat Muhammad(saw) is momentous event in the history of the world. It is upon the flight of Hazrat Muhammad(saw) from Mecca that the Muslim calendar begins. Thirdly, “fled from drawn swords” conclusively proves the fulfillment of the prophecy in Hazrat Muhammad(saw) who fled from Mecca when his house was surrounded by his deadly enemies who stood there, drawn swords in had, thirsty for his blood. Fourthly, another clear testimony in favor of Hazrat Muhammad(saw) is found in: “within a year… all the glory of Kedar will fail… the mighty men of Kedar shall diminish.” This was fulfilled in the battle of Badr which occurred within a year from the flight of Muhammad, and in which battle, the Quraish of Mecca (Kedar) sustained a crushing defeat; most of their mighty men fell. Rev. C. Forster locates the Kedar in Hedjaz and identifies them with Koraish. See: The Historical Geography of Arabia by Rev. C. Forster, pp. 244-265. The Name Muhammad Mentioned in the Bible There is an important prophecy in the Song of Solomon (5:9-16). In this prophecy, the one who is spoken of here is the beloved of God. One of the titles of Hazrat Muhammad(saw) is Habibullah - the beloved one of God. Secondly: “My beloved is white and ruddy”. This was the color of Hazrat Muhammad(saw), Thirdly, “Chiefest among then thousands”. We have already shown that Hazrat Muhammad(saw) was at the head of ten thousand followers at the time of the conquest of Mecca. The fourth and most striking point in this prophecy is the name of Hazrat Muhammad(saw) in verse 16. It reads: “Yea, he is altogether lovely” in English Bible. In the Hebrew Bible, the word is “Muhammad-im”. See Hebrew Bible printed for the British and Foreign Bible Society by Trowitzsch & Sons, Berlin, P. 1159. The Promised Comforter of the Gospel The prophecy runs as follows: “If ye love me, keep my commands. And I will pray to the Father and He shall give you another Comforter. That he may abide with you forever; even the Spirit of truth.” (John 14:15-17) “But the Comforter which is the Holy Ghost whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things..” (John 14:26) Again: “Nevertheless, I tell you the truth; it is expedient for you that I go away, for if I go not away the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.” (John 16:7) “I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth; for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak; and he will shew you things to come. He shall glorify me.” (John 16:12-14) John 14:26 says that the Holy Ghost is the Comforter. This claim is contrary to the plain and unambiguous words of John 16:7, wherein Jesus(as) says that his going away, i.e., the death of Jesus is inevitably necessary of the coming of the Comforter. The New Testament says that John was filled with the Holy Ghost even before he was born (Luke 1:14), and speaks of Jesus(as) himself as receiving the Holy Ghost in the form of a dove (Matthew 3:16)Thus, the Holy Ghost was wont to visit men before Jesus(as) as well as in his own time. To what, then is the reference in the words, “If I go not away the Comforter will not come unto you.” Surely not to the Holy Ghost; for it is a matter of common knowledge that the Holy Ghost was co-existing with Jesus(as), and it would be sacrilegious to think for a moment that Jesus(as) was without the Holy Ghost. So, the Comforter was someone other than the Holy Ghost. This also supports our assertion that there have been many interpolations in the existing Christian Bible. It is quite obvious that the Comforter cannot be the Holy Ghost, as Jesus(as) uses the pronoun “he” instead of “it” in connection with the Comforter. Comforter Was To Bring Complete Teachings According to the prophecy: The Comforter, the Spirit of truth, “will guide you into all truth”. The Holy Prophet Muhammad(saw) was the only prophet who claimed to have brought the complete teachings through the Holy Quran about which Devenport Says: ” The Quran is the general code of the Muslim world; a social, civil, commercial, military, judicial, criminal, penal and yet religious code; by it everything is regulated; from the ceremonies of religion to those of daily life; from salvation of the soul to the health of the body; from the rights of general community to those of society, from morality to crime, from punishment here to that of the life to come.” According to the prophecy: the Comforter would not speak of himself but “whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak”. The spirit descended upon the Apostles at Pentecost was not the Comforter who should not speak of himself, for this spirit broke even the body in which it dwelt. “Me, I, my, we, ourselves” were words uttered by Peter, John, Phillip, James, and by twelve when they assembled together. Hence, the words of prophecy cannot be twisted to the Holy Ghost, which was given to them already as is clear from John 20:22 - “And when he (Jesus) had said this, he breathed on then, and saith unto them. Receive ye the Holy Ghost.”Moreover, the Holy Ghost, being the third person of the Trinity, is a co-partner in the God-head and has a fair claim to at least one third of it. Why, then should it be reduced to the status of a recipient, hearing anything from any other person. It is, on the hand, the active agent imparting words to others who should communicate them to mankind. Obviously, the passage refers to a man inspired by God, who will transmit to others nothing beyond what is revealed to him. “He doth not speak of himself, but it is the word of God that is revealed to him” says the Holy Quran (53:4-5). The Comforter is repeatedly spoken of in the Bible as the “Spirit of Truth” and it may be observed here in passing that the word Comforter cannot, by stretch of fancy, be twisted to fit in with the Holy Ghost, for nowhere in the Bible is the latter called the Spirit of Truth. Furthermore, Jesus(as) speaks of Him as another Comforter. Jesus(as) himself, of course, was one Comforter. The other Comforter foretold, therefore, must also be mortal like himself. The Quranic picture is the same in this respect when it proclaims the advent of the Holy Prophet(saw) thus: “Qul Jaa’al Haqqo Wa Zahaqal Baatilo, Innal Baatila Kaana Zahooqa” - Say, the Spirit of Truth is come and falsehood is vanished. (Al-Quran 17:82) It is futile to object that the Holy Prophet(saw) was a man and not a “Spirit”. The Bible itself has used the word “Spirit” in a large variety of senses, as for example: “The Spirit is willing but flesh is weak” where it signifies the spiritual part of man. Again, it is also used to stand for God, both in the Holy Quran and the Bible, as descending upon the righteous, and yet again it signifies a holy person: That which is born of the spirit is spirit”. The Christian contention that the word “spirit” cannot apply to corporal being is therefore without basis. Hazrat Muhammad(saw) Cleared Jesus(as) of All False Charges
“He shall send Jesus Christ which before was preached unto you; whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began. For Moses truly said unto the fathers, a Prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.” (The Acts 3:20-22) These words of Peter evidently imply that the advent of “that prophet” will take place before the second advent of Jesus Christ(as). Jesus(as) pointed out in the parable of the vineyard that after him shall come the Lord of vineyard and added: “The kingdom of God shall be taken from you and given to a nation bringing forth fruits thereof.” Matthew 21:43) Thus Jesus(as) has made it clear that the Prophet who was to come after him was not to be of the Israelites, but from another nation - their brethren, the Ishmaelites. This prophecy has been fulfilled in the person of Hazrat Muhammad(saw), the Holy Founder of Islam. For in the first place, he came from among the descendents of Ishmael(as), the brethren of Israelites; so that the promise of God concerning Ishmael(as) be fulfilled: ” I have blessed him… and I will make him a great nation.” (Genesis 17:20) Secondly, he was the prophet who came with a new law - the law of the Quran. None of Israelite prophets including Jesus of Nazareth(as), with the exception of Moses(as), brought a new law or dispensation; not did any of them claim to have been like unto Moses(as). On the other hand, it has been expressly written about Hazrat Muhammad(saw) in the Holy Quran that he was the prophet like unto Moses(as). “We have raised a prophet among you like unto the prophet that We sent to Pharoah” (73:16). Again, it invites the attention of the Jews to the prophecy in Deuteronomy 18:18 in these words: “A witness from among the Israelites has borne witness of one like him.” (Al-Quran 46:11) The third proof is that Hazrat Muhammad(saw) spoke naught from himself as it was written in the prophecy (‘whatsoever he shall hear that he shall speak in my name’). In the Holy Quran, all the chapters begin with the words: “In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful”. Lord Manifests On Mount Paran There is an important prophecy in the Bible: “And he said, the Lord came from Sinai, and rose up from Seir unto them; he shined forth from Mount Paran, and he came with ten thousand saints; from right hand went a fiery law for them.” (Deuteronomy 33:2) Coming from Sinai refers to the appearance of Moses(as) and rising up from Seir alludes that of Jesus(as). The prophet who shone forth from Mount Paran could be no other than the Holy Prophet(saw) of Arabia, as Paran is the ancient name of the part of Arabia where the children of Ishmael(as), the ancestors of Hazrat Muhammad(saw), settled. The Arabic form of the word Paran is Faran or Pharan. Jacut’s Geographishes Worterbuch (F. Westenfielt, Leipzig, 1862, Vol. III, P834) says that Faran is a name of Mecca. The word Faran seems to be the Arabic Farran. It means two refugees. It appears that the place took the name from Hager and Ishmael(as), who came there as refugees. Dr. A. Benisch call it in his translation of Pentateuch the desert of Paran.
Biblical prophecies about Muhammad(sa) by Maulana Ataullah Kaleem Allah says in the Holy Quran: “… Those who follow the Messenger, the Immaculate One, whom they find mentioned in the Torah and the Gospel which are with them.” Al-Quran 7:158) No doubt there are many prophecies regarding the advent of the Holy Prophet Muhammad(saw) in the Bible, but in the above quoted Quranic verse, the Torah and the Gospels are especially mentioned; because Moses(as) and Jesus(as) were prominent figures among all Israelite prophets. Muslims look upon the source of Bible as holy and divine and its medium as truthful men. And here is a verse of Al-Quran which confirms this statement: ” Say ye: We believe in Allah and what has been revealed to us, and what was revealed to Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac, and Jacob, and his children, and what was given to Moses and Jesus, and what was given to all other prophets from their Lord. We make no difference between any of them; and to Him we submit ourselves.” (Al Quran 2:137) Of course, Muslims regard the Christian Scriptures as interpolated, but interpolation still implies retention of some original truths. The principle that the Holy Prophet Muhammad(saw) testifies to the truth of all previous revelations, furnishes a strong foundation for harmony between the various religions of the world, as well as for the unity of the human race. The fact that all of the foregoing prophets testify to the truth of Prophet Muhammad(saw) constitutes a yet stronger testimony to the truth of Islam and the Unity of religions. Moses(as) prophesied about Hazrat Muhammad(saw). In Deuteronomy 18:17-19, Moses(as) prophesied: “And the Lord said unto me. They have well spoken that which they have spoken, I will raise them up a prophet from among their brethren like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him. And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him.” The foretold prophet in this prophecy was not Jesus Christ(as), nor any other Israelite prophet, because none of them ever claimed to be the prophet promised here. We read in the Gospel of John (1:19-21) that in the time of Jesus, the Jews were expecting the advent of three prophets. Firstly Elias, secondly Christ(as), thirdly a prophet of such universal fame that in his case no other specification was thought necessary. “The Prophet” was enough to convey what was meant. Jesus(as) claimed to be the Christ and he regarded John the Baptist as Elias (Matthew 11:14, 17:10-13). Further, he prophesied about his second advent in the last days when true faith would disappear from the earth (Luke 18:8). Hazrat Muhammad(saw) to come before the Second Advent of Jesus(as) Peter describing the time of “That Prophet” says:
6 bc Jesus was came, after that 700 years ago quran was came, its so long time, not shame for old agreement from israel, but islam claim is quran prefect... If prefect why still persecution christian all the world??
truth. 5:34-37 “I tell you, do not swear an oath at all: either by heaven, for it is God’s throne; or by the earth, for it is his footstool; or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the Great King. And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make even one hair white or black. All you need to say is simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything beyond this comes from the evil one” Matthew 5:34-37 28. A whole city asks Jesus to leave After Jesus kills the herd of pigs by sending devils into them, the “whole city” asks him to leave. I don’t blame them. Matthew 8:34 27. John the Baptist isn’t sure about Jesus John the Baptist is still not sure about Jesus (he’s in prison and is soon to die). He sends his disciples to ask, “Are you the one who is to come, or should we expect someone else?” Matthew 11:2-3 26. Jesus heals a withered hand Jesus said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” So he stretched it out and it was completely restored, just as sound as the other. Matthew 12:10-13 25. Jesus believed that Jonah spent three days and three nights in the belly of a whale Jesus believed in the literal truth of the fish story in Jonah. Matthew 12:40 24. What happens when a demon leaves a person’s body? “When an impure spirit comes out of a person, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’ When it arrives, it finds the house unoccupied, swept clean and put in order. Then it goes and takes with it seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the final condition of that person is worse than the first. That is how it will be with this wicked generation.” Matthew 12:43-45 23. Jesus fed 5000 men (plus women and children) with five loaves and two fishes Jesus fed 5000 men (plus women and children) with five loaves and two fishes (with 12 baskets left over) Matthew 14:17-21 22. Jesus walks on water Jesus and Peter walk on water Matthew 14:25-31 21. Jesus went up on a mountain and healed “a great multitude” of lame, blind, dumb, and maimed people Jesus went up on a mountain and heals the lame, the blind, the crippled, the mute and many others Matthew 15:29-30 20. Jesus calls Peter “Satan”! Jesus turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan!” Matthew 16:23 19. Jesus says you can move mountains “Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” Matthew 17:20 18. Jesus recommends cutting off body parts if they cause you to sin “If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life maimed or crippled than to have two hands or two feet and be thrown into eternal fire. And if your eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into the fire of hell” Matthew 18:8-9 17.

Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in them.” John 6:53-56 15.

An abused prostitute gets gang raped by a gang of perverts, then dies, then gets cut up into twelve pieces After taking in a traveling Levite, the host offers his virgin daughter and his guest’s concubine to a mob of perverts (who want to have sex with his guest). The mob refuses the daughter, but accepts the concubine and they “abuse her all night.” The next morning she crawls back to the doorstep and dies.

God smites the people of Ashdod with hemorrhoids “in their secret parts” God smites the people of Ashdod with hemorrhoids “in their secret parts.” 1 Samuel 5:6-12 To see if it was God who killed the Philistine people, the ark of the Lord and the five golden hemorrhoids were put into a cart pulled by two cows. Then the cows were let go. If the cows went directly to Bethshemesh, then God killed the people. And that is the way the cows went.

In my last article I took a critical look at the teachings of Jesus, in this article I’ll extend that to the Bible itself. As a reference guide I’ve used The Skeptics Annotated Bible which I highly recommend you check out. The Bible is a book of claims, not a book of facts. It is not the “word of God” because “God” didn’t write it, men did. In this article 101 of my favorite absurdities in the supposedly inerrant “word of God” the Bible… 101. God creates light before the sun and stars God spends a day making light before making trillions of stars. “He made the stars also.”, and almost as an afterthought, he makes the trillions of stars. Genesis 1:14-19 100. God gets tired and rested God got tired and rested. Even God gets tired sometimes. “And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made” Genesis 2:2 99. Adam names every animal on earth Adam names every animal on earth. God makes the animals and parades them before Adam to see if any would strike his fancy. But none seem to have what it takes to please him. (Although he was tempted to go for the sheep.) After making the animals, God has Adam name them all. The naming of several million species must have kept Adam busy for a while. “and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof. And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field” Genesis 2:18-20 98. Cain gets a wife from outta nowhere Cain is worried after killing Abel and says, “Every one who finds me shall slay me.” This is a strange concern since there were only two other humans alive at the time - his parents! 4:14 “And Cain knew his wife.” Except the only woman on earth was Eve his mother. Genesis 4:17 97. Noah had three sons when he was 500 years old When Noah was 500 years old, he had three sons. Genesis 5:32 96. God kills all living things because human imagination is evil God decides to kill all living things because the human imagination is evil. Later (8:21), after he kills everything, he promises never to do it again because the human imagination is evil. Go figure. 6:5 95. God repents that he made man “And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart” Genesis 6:5 94. God kills everything to make the world less violent God was angry because “the earth was filled with violence.” So he killed every living thing to make the world less violent. Genesis 6:11-13 93. 50, 000-millions of animals boarded Noah’s ark on the same day All of the animals boarded the ark “in the selfsame day.” Genesis: 7:13-14 Noah, a 500 year old man told millions of animals onto the ark, or according to Christian apologists only 20, 000-50, 000 “However, this response requires creationists to believe that just 16,000 animals developed into billions of species in less than 4000 years” - RationalWiki A good article on Noah’s ark 92. God enslaves the Jews (his chosen people) for 400 years Why would God enslave the jews (his chosen people) for 400 years? Genesis 15:13 91. The Sodomites want to have sex with angels The two angels that visit Lot wash their feet, eat, and are sexually irresistible to Sodomites. Genesis 19:1-5 90. Lot offers his virgin daughters to the mob to do what you like with them (instead of having sex with the angels) Lot offers his two virgin daughters to the perverted mob, so they won’t rape the angels. “Look, I have two daughters who have never slept with a man. Let me bring them out to you, and you can do what you like with them” Genesis 19:8
Eating Faeces and Drinking Urine - It's All in the Bible! Eating faeces and drinking urine are considered distasteful by most people yet they both have a long history. Coprophagia is usually practiced by sexual deviants or as a form of bodily mortification. Imbibing urine, on the other hand, is regarded by some as a legitimate medical practice... although not always. In 701 BCE, for example, Sennacherib, King of Assyria, was poised to capture Jerusalem. Rab-shakeh, Sennacherib’s emissary, threatened the Israelites on his master’s behalf. But Rab-shakeh said unto them, Hath my master sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? Hath he not sent me to the men which sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss with you? (2 Kings 18:27) Proverbs, on the other hand, appears to be giving advice rather than trying to intimidate. Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well. Let them be only thine own, and not strangers' with thee. (Proverbs 5:15-17) Pondering this, John Armstrong, a consumptive living in Britain in the 1920s, wondered whether this really was a reference to the body's own water. Ignoring the prevailing medical opinion of the day, Armstrong began drinking his urine, cured himself of consumption and eventually wrote a best-seller on the subject, The Water of Life (1944). However, this practice has been going on in India for centuries. The prophet Ezekiel, on the other hand, was ordered by God to cook some rather strange bread. And thou shalt eat it as barley cakes, and thou shalt bake it with dung that cometh out of man, in their sight. (Ezekiel 4:12) It’s debatable as to whether this means that the faeces should be mixed in with the barley cakes or whether it should be used as fuel but, in either case, Ezekiel balks at this part of the recipe. Quite reasonably, he points out that his soul is not polluted and he has no intention of putting something so abominable in his mouth. God duly allows Ezekiel to use cow’s dung instead.
‘And Jesus increased in wisdom.’ (Luke 2:52) God does not need to learn, but Jesus learned: ‘Although he was a son, he learned obedience’ (Heb. 5:8) Jesus had limited knowledge, but god’s knowledge is infinite. Since Jesus did not know, he was not all-knowing, and therefore, he cannot be the God whose knowledge is all-encompassing. ‘No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the son, but only the Father.’ (Mark 13:32) Bible says that Jesus was tempted, but God cannot be tempted ’tempted in every way - just as we are’ (Heb. 4:15) ‘for God cannot be tempted by evil’ (James 1:13) Since God can not be tempted, but Jesus was, therefore, Jesus was not God. Bible says that Jesus’ teachings were from God, not from himself ‘So Jesus answered them and said, ‘My teaching is not mine, but His who sent me.’ (John 7:16) Jesus could not have said this if he were God because the doctrine would have been his. Bible says that Jesus died, but God cannot die The Bible teaches that Jesus died. God cannot die. Romans 1:23 and other verses say that God is immortal. Immortal means, ‘not subject to death.’ This term applies only to God. Bible says that Jesus lived because of God ‘I live because of the Father.’ (John 6:57) Jesus cannot be God because he depended on God for his own existence. Bible says that Jesus’ powers were given to him ‘All power is given unto me.’ (Matt 28:18) God is all-powerful, no one gives God His powers, otherwise He would not be God because He would be weak. Therefore, Jesus could not be God. Bible says that Jesus was taught & commanded by God ‘As my Father hath taught me, I speak these things,’ (John 8:28) ‘The Father, who sent me, he gave me a commandment.’ (John 12:49) ‘I have kept my Father’s commandments.’ (John 15:10) No one can teach God, otherwise God cannot be All-Knowing and would owe His teacher. Since Jesus was taught and commanded by God, Jesus cannot be God himself. The teacher and the student, the commander and the commanded are not one. Bible says that God made Jesus ‘Lord’! ‘God has made this Jesus both Lord and Christ.’ (Acts 2:36) ‘Lord’ is used in many ways in the Bible, and others beside God and Jesus are called ‘Lord.’ For example: 1) property owners (Matt. 20:8) 2) heads of households (Mark 13:35) 3) slave owners (Matt. 10:24) 4) husbands (1 Pet. 3:6) 5) a son called his father Lord (Matt. 21:30) 6) the Roman Emperor was called Lord (Acts 25:26) 7) Roman authorities were called Lord (Matt. 27:63) ‘Lord’ is not the same as ‘God.’ ‘Lord’ (the Greek word is kurios) is a masculine title of respect and nobility used many times in the Bible. If Jesus was God, then for the Bible to say he was ‘made’ Lord would make no sense. Bible says that Jesus was lower than angels ‘But we do see him who was made for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus.’ (Hebrews 2:9) God, the Creator of angels, can not be lower than His own creation, but Jesus was. Therefore, Jesus was not God. Bible says that Jesus called the Father ‘my God’ ‘My God, My God, why have You forsaken me?’ (Matt. 27:46) ‘I ascend to my Father and your Father, and my God and your God.’ (John 20:17) ‘the temple of my God the name of my God the city of my God comes down out of heaven from my God.’ (Rev. 3:12) Jesus did not think of himself as God, instead Jesus’ God is the same as ours. Bible says that God cannot be seen But Jesus was seen by others ‘no man has seen God at any time.’ (John 1:18) Bible says twice that Jesus was accused of being God But he denied it: According to the Bible, on only two instances the Jews opposed Jesus on the basis that he pretended to be God or equal with God. Had Jesus, may the mercy and blessings of God be upon him, claimed to be God, he is likely to have been opposed on this basis more frequently. Because in these two instances, when charged, in the one case, with making himself God, and in the other, with making himself equal with God, he denied the charges. In reply to the charge of being an equal with God, he says immediately: ‘The son can do nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father do’; and directly after ‘I can of mine own self do nothing.’ (John 5:19, 30) In answer to the charge of making himself God, he appeals to the Jews in substance thus: Your own Scriptures call Moses a god, and your magistrates gods; I am surely not inferior to them, yet I did not call myself God, but only the ‘son’ of God (John 10:34-36). This is unlikely to have been Jesus’ actual response. Hastings in ‘The Dictionary of the Bible’ says, ‘Whether Jesus used it of himself is doubtful.’ Grolier’s encyclopedia, under the heading ‘Jesus Christ,’ says, ‘it is uncertain whether the Father/Son language (Mark 18:32; Matt. 11:25-27 Par.; John Passim) goes back to Jesus himself.’ A University of Richmond professor, Dr. Robert Alley, after considerable research into newly found ancient documents concludes that: ‘The (Biblical) passages where Jesus talks about the Son of God are later additions. what the church said about him. Such a claim of deity for himself would not have been consistent with his entire lifestyle as we can reconstruct. For the first three decades after Jesus’ death Christianity continued as a sect within Judaism. The first three decades of the existence of the church were within the synagogue. That would have been beyond belief if they (the followers) had boldly proclaimed the deity of Jesus.’ Assuming Jesus did say that he was ‘son’ of God. What did it mean? We first need to know the language of his people, the language of the Jews to whom he was speaking. The Bible says God had many ‘sons’ First, most people think there are no other verses that contradict or give equal divine sonship to other persons in the Old or New Testament. For Jesus to be called son of God, does not make him a true son of God, other wise Adam, Jacob, Ephraim and many more should also be considered as been sons of God as such they should be worshiped too according to such method. Adam: ‘Adam, which was the son of God.’ (Luke 3:38) Jacob is God’s son and firstborn: ‘Israel is my son, even my firstborn.’ (Exodus 4:22) Solomon: ‘I will be his father, and he shall be my son.’ (2 Samuel 7:13-14) Ephraim: ‘for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn.’ (Jeremiah 31:9) Is God’s firstborn, common people are called the sons of God: ‘Ye are the children of the Lord your God’ (Deuteronomy 14:1)
