Quran chapter 2 surah 2.

Quran 2:259 where waking up after a death of a hundred years will feel like you were sleeping for part of one day agrees with Zabur Psalm 6:6 of Prophet Dawud that there is no memory of Allaah in the grave meaning nothing happens in the grave meaning the Quran confirms the Tanakh Jewish scripture is correct and there is no punishment in the grave.


Death might be a very long time but it will feel like only a one hour or ten hour sleep in Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46 and like the blink (closing and then opening) of the eye in Quran 16:77.

N Q S ALM ALR ALMR ALMS HM TH’ TS’ TS’M YS’ A’S’Q KH’YA’S in the Quran. 

Allaah would not say the Quran confirms the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil and then allow the proof of Allaah in the Quran to be lost by allowing the Torah Taurat that is with the Jews today and the Gospel Injil that is wth the Christians today to be corrupted. 

Allaah confirms that the Torah Taurat that is with the Jews today and the Gospel Injil that is with the Christians today and the Koran Quran that is with the Muslims today all belong to Allaah by revealing to this generation the meaning of N Q S ALM ALR ALMR ALMS HM TH TS TSM YS ASQ KHYAS in the Quran.

 

1. The Torah Taurat, Gospel Injil and Quran are protected forever by Allaah. 

Quran 4:82 Verse 4:82 Do they not think about the Quran (and where it came from)? Had it (the Quran) been (revealed) from someone other than Allaah surely they would have found in it (the Quran) much contradiction (within it and between it and the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil. The Quran confirms the Tanakh Jewish Scripture is correct and the Quran explains the story of Jesus in the Gospel Injil of Jesus Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John).

 

Quran 15:9 Verse 15:9 We (Allaah) have sent down the reminder (of Allaah in the Quran) and We (Allaah) shall guard it (to prevent addition and subtraction in the Quran like the promise to protect the Torah Taurat in Deuteronomy 4:2 and Deuteronomy 13:1 in Jewish Tanakh or Deuteronomy 12:32 in a Christian Bible by the command of Allaah that the Torah Taurat be followed for 100,000 years which is the thousandth generation if each generation lived for 100 years in Deuteronomy 5:10 meaning forever in Deuteronomy 29:28 in Jewish Tanakh or Deuteronomy 29:29 in a Christian Bible for the children of Israel. For the Jewish people mentioned in Isaiah 36:11 and Isaiah 36:13 the Torah is protected by Allaah forever in Isaiah 59:21 like the promise that the Torah is protected forever by Allaah for the Jewish people in Gospel of Matthew 5:17-5:20 because the Torah is the covenant agreement between Allaah and the Jewish people forever in Quran 2:40 as proof that Allaah does not change His word and His promises and His covenant agreements).

Note 1. The word of Allaah is protected as proof Allaah is real. 

Note 2. If the word of Allaah was not protected then there would be no proof that Allaah and His books were real. 

Note 3. The word of Allaah is protected as proof Allaah is real so that humans can believe the promise of life after death. 

Note 4. The proof Allaah is real is the Quran confirming the Tanakh Jewish Scripture and explaining the story of Prophet Jesus Isa in the Gospel Injil so that humans can believe the promise of life after death.

 

A. Prophet Muhammad confirms that the Torah Taurat is protected forever in the same way as Prophet Jesus Isa and Prophet David Dawud and Prophet Moses Musa confirmed the Torah Taurat is protected forever. 

Allaah sent every prophet after Moses Musa with the same message reminding the children of Israel and the Jewish people to follow the Torah Taurat which their fathers followed and which Allaah ordered to be followed forever meaning Allaah is protecting the Torah Taurat forever.

2 Kings 17:13 yet the LORD forewarned Israel, and Judah, by the hand of every prophet, and of every dreamer, saying: 'Turn from your evil ways, and keep My commandments and My statutes, according to all the law which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you by the hand of My servants the prophets'; 

Note 1. No prophet after Moses Musa told the children of Israel and the Jewish people to add or subtract from the Torah Taurat unless they were a false prophet or a dreamer of false dreamers.

Note 2. Jesus is a true prophet because he confirmed the covenant between Allaah and the Jewish people which is the Torah Taurat forever in Gospel of Matthew 5:17-5:20.

Note 3. Paul is a false dreamer of dreams because he claimed the Torah Taurat was replaced with a new covenant meaning Paul changed the words of Allaah and changed the teachings of Jesus and every prophet before Jesus.

Note 4. Muhammad is a true prophet because he confirmed the covenant between Allaah and the Jewish people which is the Torah Taurat forever in Quran 2:40-2:41 and Quran 7:170.

In Quran 2:106 Allaah will not allow one verse in the Torah Taurat to be abolished or forgotten by the Jewish people and describes the Quran as something better or similar to the Torah Taurat.

In Quran 13:39 the Quran eliminates the laws in the Torah Taurat which only apply to the Jewish people meaning the Quran eliminates the laws in the Torah Taurat which do not apply to non-Jewish people meaning the Quran contains the laws for those who are not Jewish.

 

2 Kings 17:37 and the statutes and the ordinances, and the law and the commandment, which He (Allaah) wrote for you, you shall observe to do for evermore …”

Note 1. Allaah orders the Torah be followed forever by the children of Israel meaning the Torah is protected forever meaning any opposite teaching is a false teaching. 

 

Isaiah 59:21 And as for Me (Allaah), this is My covenant with them (the Jewish people), said the LORD; My spirit that is on you (the Jewish people), and My words (the Torah) which I (Allaah) have put in your mouth, shall not depart out of your mouth, nor out of the mouth of your seed (off-spring), nor out of the mouth of your seed's seed (descendants), said the LORD, from now and forever. 

Note 1. The promise of Allaah that the Torah Taurat is protected forever meaning any opposite teaching is a false teaching.

 

Isaiah 36:11 Then Eliakim and Shebna and Joah said to Rab-shakeh: 'Please speak to your servants in the Aramaic language, for we understand it; and do not speak to us in the Jews' language, (in case it is heard) in the ears of the (Jewish) people that are on the wall (surrounding Jerusalem). 

Note 1. The word Jew is used by Prophet Isaiah meaning the promise of Allaah in Isaiah 59:21 that the Torah is protected forever is to the Jewish people meaning any opposite teaching is a false teaching.

 

Isaiah 36:12 But Rabshakeh (the officer representing Sennacherib the King of Assyria) said: 'Has my master (the King of Assyria) sent me to your master (the King of Judah), and to you (the representatives of the King of Judah), to speak these words? Has he (the King of Assyria) not sent me to (speak to) the (Hebrew) men that sit on the wall (surrounding Jerusalem, and speak these words in Hebrew to them warning that our Army will blockade Jerusalem and that they will have) to eat their own dung and to drink their own urine with you (if you do not give Jerusalem to us)?'

 

Isaiah 36:13 Then Rabshakeh (the officer representing the King of Assyria) stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language (of Hebrew to the men on the wall surrounding Jerusalem), and said: “Hear the words of the great king, the king of Assyria.

Note 1. The word Jew is used by Prophet Isaiah meaning the promise of Allaah in Isaiah 59:21 that the Torah Taurat is protected forever is to the Jewish people.

 

Allaah tells the children of Israel and the Jewish people to follow the Torah Taurat forever as shown by the command to follow the Sabbath Day in every generation.

Torah Exodus 31:16 So the children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath and observe the Sabbath throughout their generations, as a perpetual (never ending) covenant (agreement with Allaah). 

 

Torah Exodus 31:17 It (the Sabbath) is a sign between Me (Allaah) and the children of Israel forever; for in six days the LORD (Allaah) made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day He (Allaah) ceased from work and rested (rested means completed the creation and this is why the Sabbath is a day of rest and remembrance of Allaah on every seventh day).' 

 

Allaah tells the children of Israel and the Jewish people to follow the Torah Taurat forever as shown by the command not to add or subtract from the Torah Taurat.

Torah Deuteronomy 4:2 You shall not add to the word which I (Allaah) command you (the children of Israel, the Hebrews in the Torah Taurat), neither shall you subtract from it, so that you may keep the commandments of the LORD your Allaah which I (Allaah) command you (the children of Israel, the Hebrews in the Torah Taurat).

 

Torah Deuteronomy 13:1 (in Jewish Tanakh or Deuteronomy 12:32 in a Christian Bible) All this word which I (Allaah) command you, to do and to observe; you shall not add to it nor subtract from it. 

 

Torah Deuteronomy 29:28 (in Jewish Tanakh or Deuteronomy 29:29 in a Christian Bible) The secret things belong to the LORD our Allaah; but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children for ever (for all time), so that we may do all the words of this law (Torah). 

 

Quran 10:64 Verse 10:64 “…There is no change in the Words of Allaah …”

 

B. Prophet Jesus Isa confirms the Torah Taurat is protected forever. 

Gospel of Matthew 5:17 Do not think that I (Prophet Jesus) have come to abolish the law (the Torah Taurat) and the prophets (because another comforter shall come after me in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15); I have come not to abolish them (the laws of the Torah Taurat and the prophets) but to fulfill them (to fulfill the laws and the prophecies).  

Note 1. The Torah Taurat is protected forever.

Note 2. Jesus fulfilled the prophecy that Allaah would send prophets.

 

Gospel of Matthew 5:18 For truly I say to you, until the sky and the earth pass away (meaning until the end of the earth), not one iota, not one serif (not a dot of one letter), will by any means pass away from the Law (in the Torah) until everything is carried out (on the Day of Judgement which is after the end of the earth). 

Note 1. The Torah Taurat is protected forever. 

 

Gospel of Matthew 5:19 Therefore, whoever looses one of the least of these commandments (in the Torah), and teaches people the same, will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices them and teaches them, this one will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.  

Note 1. The Torah Taurat is protected forever.

Note 2. Jesus said Jews must follow the Torah (the law) forever in Gospel of Matthew 5:17-5:20 and 23:1-23:3.

Paul who never saw Jesus came after the time of Jesus and gave the opposite message claiming Jesus said in dreams that the Torah is obsolete and outdated and will soon disappear in Hebrews 8:13 which is the opposite of what Jesus said in Gospel of Matthew 5:17-5:20 and 23:1-23:3.meaning whoever said they were Jesus in the dreams of Paul could not have been Jesus because they contradicted the message of Jesus in the Gospel.

Note 3. Jesus warns that Paul will be called least (not great) in the kingdom of heaven because Paul violated the warning given by Jesus in Gospel of Matthew 5:19.

Note 4. The teachings of Paul contradict the teachings of Jesus and the teachings of every prophet in the Tanakh Jewish scripture which confirmed that the Jewish people must follow the Torah forever.

Gospel of Matthew 5:20 For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the Torah scholars and Pharisees (meaning unless you use religion to serve Allaah and to serve other humans instead of using the name of Allaah to gain attention for yourself or for your pride or for your arrogance), you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.

Note 1. There is a difference between the righteous Torah scholars (students of the Torah) and righteous Pharisees (orthodox Jews who followed the Torah and the oral law) and the Torah scholars and Pharisees who were arrogantly using the name of Allaah for their pride to gain attention for themselves.

 

Gospel of Matthew 23:1 Then Jesus spoke to the crowd and to his disciples, 

Gospel of Matthew 23:2 saying, "The Torah scholars and Pharisees took the seat of Moses;

Gospel of Matthew 23:3 therefore whatever they say to you, you should do and keep …” 

Note 1. Jesus says that the scripture that cannot be changed and must be followed forever is with the Pharisees meaning the Orthodox Jews and Jesus says “whatever they say to you, you should do and keep” meaning the Orthodox Jews have the correct word of Allaah in the Tanakh Jewish Scripture that cannot be changed and must be followed forever” meaning any opposite teaching is a false teaching.

 

C. Allaah in the Book of Malachi which is the last Book in the Jewish Bible confirms the Torah Taurat is protected forever by commanding it to be obeyed. 

Jewish Bible Malachi 3:22 You remember the law (Torah Taurat) of Moses Musa My (Allaah’s) servant which I (Allaah) commanded to him (Moses Musa) in Horab (Mount Sinai) for all Israel even (to keep the) statutes and ordinances.

 

D. Prophet David Dawud confirms the Torah Taurat is protected forever. 

Jewish Bible Zabur Psalm 19:8 The law of the LORD (Allaah in the Torah) is perfect, restoring the soul; the testimony of the LORD (Allaah) is trustworthy, giving wisdom (to) the simple (people).

 

Jewish Bible Zabur Psalm 19:9 The guidelines of the LORD (Allaah) are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the LORD (Allaah) is pure, enlightening the eyes. 

 

Jewish Bible Zabur Psalm 19:10 The fear of the LORD (Allaah) is pure, enduring for ever; the judgements of the LORD (Allaah) are completely true and righteous;

Note 1. Quran 6:115 Verse 6:115 The Word of your Lord (Allaah) is fulfilled in truth and justice. No one can change His (Allaah’s) Words. He (Allaah) hears and knows (all things).

 

Jewish Bible Zabur Psalm 19:11 More to be desired are they (the commandments of Allaah in the Torah law) than gold, yes (they are) much finer than gold and also sweeter than honey and the honeycomb.

 

Jewish Bible Zabur Psalm 19:12 Moreover by them (the Torah law) is Your (Allaah’s) servant warned (to fear Allaah and avoid evil) and in keeping them (the commandments of Allaah in the Torah law) there is great reward (of Paradise in the hereafter and love from Allaah).

 

Jewish Bible Zabur Psalm 111:7 The works of His (Allaah’s) hands are truth and justice; all His (Allaah’s) commandments are sure. 

 

Jewish Bible Zabur Psalm 111:8 They are established forever and ever (for all time), they are done in truth and uprightness. 

 

Jewish Bible Zabur Psalm 111:9 He (Allaah) has sent redemption (salvation from sin) to His people (the children of Israel); He has commanded His covenant for ever (for all time); Holy and awesome is His (Allaah’s) name. 

 

E. Prophet Moses Musa confirms the Torah is protected forever. 

Allaah promises to protect the Torah for every Jewish generation by commanding the Jewish people to keep following the Torah for 100,000 years in Torah Deuteronomy 5:10. 

The Third commandment of Allaah says to the children of Israel that those that love Allaah shall keep these commandments to the thousandth generation. 

If humans lived for 100 years then the thousandth generation of humans would be in 100,000 years. 

Torah Deuteronomy 5:10 - And showing mercy to the thousandth generation of them that love Me (Allaah) and keep My (Allaah’s) commandments. 

Note 1. The order to follow the Torah for 100,000 years means Allaah is protecting the Torah forever.

 

F. In Quran 5:48 Allaah wants the Jews to follow the Torah Taurat and the Christians to follow the Gospel Injil and the Muslims to follow the Quran.

Allaah will judge Jews living today by the Torah Taurat. 

Allaah will judge Christians living today by the Gospel Injil which confirms the Torah Taurat. 

Allaah will judge Muslims by the Quran which confirms the Torah Taurat and explains the Gospel Injil.

 

Quran 5:48 Verse 5:48 “... For each (community of Jews, Christians and Muslims) We (Allaah) have appointed a divine law and a way (of religion). If Allaah willed He (Allaah) could have made you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) one community. But He (Allaah) tests you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) by what He (Allaah) has given you (in the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil and the Koran Quran to show who is best in behaviour). So strive for all that is good. To Allaah you shall all return and He (Allaah) shall then inform you (in the Hereafter) about (the correctness of) the religious matters in which you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) argue among each other.

Note 1. Allaah does not require humans to all be in one religion (Quran 5:48).

Note 2. Allaah does require that every religion worship only Allaah (Quran 3:85).

Note 3. Allaah says if the Jews and the Christians and others worship only Allaah like the Muslims worship only Allaah then the Jews and the Christians and others are correctly guided by Allaah (Quran 3:64). 

Note 4. Allaah commands the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims to do what is good according to what Allaah has given them in the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil and the Koran Quran to show which humans are the best in behaviour.

Note 5. Allaah says that on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement in the hereafter every human will return to Allaah and Allaah shall inform them about the religious matters about which they argued.

Note 6. Allaah protects the Torah Taurat for every Jewish generation until the Day of Judgement (Quran 5:48). 

Note 7. Allaah protects the Gospel Injil for every Christian generation until the Day of Judgement (Quran 5:48) in the following way.

Prophet Jesus Isa did not write anything because everything Prophet Jesus Isa taught by his mouth was already written in the Tanakh Jewish scripture meaning Prophet Jesus Isa did not add or subtract from what is in Tanakh Jewish scripture.

The four Gospel Injil are four reports about Prophet Jesus Isa meaning Prophet Jesus Isa never wrote anything and what he said was passed by mouth until it was written many years later.

Quran 5:68 says observe the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil and Quran 5:47 tells Christians to judge by the Gospel Injil (not by the other books in the Christian New Testament Bible because what Paul teaches contradicts what Jesus is teaching in the Gospel Injil and anything about fallen angels found in the Book of Enoch and in the Book of Revelation are all rejected in Judaism because in the Hebrew Tanakh scripture angels always obey Allaah. Jewish people do not use the Christian produced Old Testament Bible because many contain wrong translations of the Hebrew Tanakh) meaning whatever in the Gospel Injil is confirmed in the Jewish Torah Taurat came from Prophet Jesus Isa and whatever contradicts the Jewish Torah Taurat came from the unknown writers who are traditionally called Mark, Matthew, Luke and John in a test from Allaah described in 1 Kings 13:14 - 13:24 teaching that the word of Allaah will not change and do not believe anyone or any verse in Mark, Matthew, Luke or John which contradicts the teachings in the Tanakh which Prophet Jesus Isa said is with the Jewish people forever and will never change and must be followed forever by the Jewish people in Gospel of Matthew 5:17 - 5:20 and Gospel of Matthew 23:1 - 23:3. In this way a Christian can know what came from Prophet Jesus Isa confirming Tanakh and what did not come from Prophet Jesus Isa because it contradicts the Tanakh (which is the Torah law and the prophets and the writings like the Psalms) which Jesus was teaching in Gospel of Luke 24:44.

Note 8. Allaah protects the Koran Quran for every Muslim generation until the Day of Judgement (Quran 5:48). 

Note 9. Entry to Paradise the Garden of Eden the Garden of Righteousness Jannah is not based on the question of Sunni or Shia or Muslim or Jew or Christian but it is based on your good behaviour towards all humans and creatures in this world and your relationship with Allaah (Quran 5:48).

Note 10. In the sight of humans Judaism and Christianity and Sabians and Islam are different religions. 

Note 11. In the sight of Allaah Judaism and Christianity and Sabians and Islam are “different communities of Allaah” because they were all created by Allaah for only one reason which is “to submit to Allaah.”

Note 12. Jews like Quran 3:113-3:115 and Christians like Quran 5:82-5:85 who follow their Book in Quran 5:68 and also believe the Quran will receive a double reward in the hereafter in Quran 28:54, Quran 34:37 and Quran 57:28 meaning the reward for every good deed they do will be doubled because they believed the Quran which tells the Jewish people to follow the Torah Taurat which is their eternal covenant between Allaah and the Hebrew people forever and tells the Christian people to follow the Gospel Injil which is explained in the Quran and tells the Muslim people to follow the Quran is confirmed in Quran 2:40, Quran 2:41, Quran 2:62, Quran 2:106, Quran 3:93, Quran 4:123, Quran 5:43, Quran 5:47, Quran 5:48, Quran 5:69 and Quran 13:39.

 

G. Jews who keep the Torah Taurat are following the message delivered to them in the Quran.

The Quran confirms the message of every prophet after Prophet Moses Musa including Prophet Jesus Isa and Prophet Muhammad reminding the Jewish people to follow the Torah Taurat forever.

 

2. Allaah promised Paradise Jannah to Jews and Christians who lived in the time of Prophet Muhammad in Quran 3:113 – 3:115 and Quran 5:82 – 5:85 and said in Quran 3:19 “the religion near Allaah is submission” to Allaah meaning everyone including the Muslim who obeys Quran 47:19 “…there is no Allaah except Allaah” and the Jew who obeys Torah Exodus 20:2 “.... You shall have no other gods before Me Allaah” and the Christian who obeys the Gospel of Jesus Isa by Luke 4:8 “… You shall worship the Lord your Allaah, and him only shall you serve” and does good deeds in the world is near to Allaah because they are submitting to Allaah in Quran 2:62, Quran 4:123, Quran 5:69, Quran 6:158 and Quran 41:8 as explained in Quran 2:137, Quran 3:64, Quran 5:48 and Quran 98:5. Islam has two meanings; the general meaning is submission in Quran 3:19 meaning anyone who submits to Allaah in the past and present and future. If Quran 3:19 had the specific meaning of “Islam” instead of the general meaning of “submission” then it would mean no people except the people from the religion of Islam would be in Paradise Jannah meaning all the prophets and people before Islam would be the losers in the hereafter which is not correct because it contradicts other verses in the Quran and it does not make sense meaning the word Islam in Quran 3:19 is the general meaning “submission” and not the specific meaning “Islam.” The specific meaning of Islam is revealed 3 months before the death of Prophet Muhammad in the farewell speech of Prophet Muhammad in Quran 5:3 which Allaah tells us is the last verse in the Quran because Allaah says He has “perfected and completed” the religion meaning the Quran and approved the name of the religion as “Islam” in Quran 5:3. 

 

3. In the time of Prophet Muhammad Allaah told the Jews to recite the Torah as evidence of truth in Quran 3:93 and observe the Torah in Quran 5:68 and obey the judgements in the Torah Taurat which was with them 1400 years ago and is the same Torah which is with the Jews today in Quran 5:43 and Allaah told the Christians to observe the Gospel Injil in Quran 5:68 and judge by the Gospel Injil which was with them 1400 years ago in the Gospel Injil of Jesus Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John which is with the Christians today in Quran 5:47 and said in Quran 3:85 “whoever seeks a religion other than submission (such as stone idol worship) it shall not be accepted by Allaah in the hereafter” meaning everyone including the Muslim who obeys Quran 47:19 “…there is no Allaah except Allaah” and the Jew who obeys Torah Exodus 20:2 “.... You shall have no other gods before Me Allaah” and the Christian who obeys the Gospel of Jesus Isa by Luke 4:8 “… You shall worship the Lord your Allaah, and him only shall you serve” and does good deeds in the world will be successful in the hereafter because they are submitting to Allaah in Quran 2:62, Quran 4:123, Quran 5:69, Quran 6:158 and Quran 41:8 as explained in Quran 2:137, Quran 3:64, Quran 5:48 and Quran 98:5. Islam has two meanings; the general meaning is submission in Quran 3:85 meaning anyone who submits to Allaah in the past and present and future. If Quran 3:85 had the specific meaning of “Islam” instead of the general meaning of “submission” then it would mean no people except the people from the religion of Islam would be in Paradise Jannah meaning all the prophets and people before Islam would be the losers in the hereafter which is not correct because it contradicts other verses in the Quran and it does not make sense meaning the word Islam in Quran 3:85 is the general meaning “submission” and not the specific meaning “Islam.” The specific meaning of Islam is revealed 3 months before the death of Prophet Muhammad in the farewell speech of Prophet Muhammad in Quran 5:3 which Allaah tells us is the last verse in the Quran because Allaah says He has “perfected and completed” the religion meaning the Quran and approved the name of the religion as “Islam” in Quran 5:3. 

 

4. Allaah created more than one religion of submission to Allaah in Quran 5:48 by creating Judaism, Christianity and Islam and telling each to submit to Allaah according to what Allaah gave them in their book; the Torah for the Jewish people, the Gospel for the Christian people and the Quran for the Muslim people and strive for all that is good so that Allaah can test who is best in behaviour.

Allaah could have made all humans to follow one book but orders each community to follow the book Allaah has given to them to test who is best in behaviour.

Allaah tests the Jewish people by the Torah Taurat.

Allaah tests the Christian people by the Gospel Injil.

Allaah tests the Muslim people by the Quran.

See F above.

 

5. Allaah explains who will go to Hell Jahannam in Quran 4:123. 

Quran 4:123 Verse 4:123 (Entry to Paradise Jannah) shall not be based on your (the Muslim's) desires or on the desires of the people of the Scripture (the Jews and the Christians). (Instead) whoever does wrong (on the earth) shall earn (the punishment for the wrong) and that person shall not find any protector or helper other than Allaah (in the hereafter). 

Note 1. Allaah will judge Muslims and Christians and Jews and every creation justly in the hereafter. 

 

6. Allaah explains who will go to Paradise Jannah in Quran 2:62 and Quran 5:69.

Quran 2:62 Verse 2:62 (In the hereafter) truly those (Muslims) who believed and those who became Jews, Christians and Sabians, whoever believed in Allaah and the Last Day (The Day of Resurrection) and did good deeds, they shall have their reward from their Lord, and they shall not fear or grieve (and this is confirmed in Quran 6:158 for those in the hereafter who “believed” and did good deeds. Quran 5:69 repeats Quran 2:62 meaning stop and think about what Allaah is saying in these verses confirming what is in the Hebrew Bible and the Gospel Injil of the promise of Paradise Jannah from Allaah in the books of Allaah on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement for those who “believed” and did good deeds. The Quran brings the same truth which Allaah brought to the Jewish people in the Hebrew Bible and to the Christian people in the Gospel Injil of Jesus Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John. The Quran is a confirmer of what came before it in the same way as the Gospel Injil is a confirmer of what came before it meaning the Books of Allaah confirm each other as proof Allaah is real and as proof His promise is real as explained in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQ3o3ybc-KA showing that without His permission no one can change His words in His Books which are with all humans today and until the Day of Judgement so that you can believe Allaah is real and His promise is real).

Note 1. The Jews who believed in Allaah and did good deeds go to Paradise Jannah. 

Note 2. The Christians who believed in Allaah and did good deeds go to Paradise Jannah. 

Note 3. The Sabians who believed in Allaah and did good deeds go to Paradise Jannah. 

Note 4. The Muslims who believed in Allaah and did good deeds go to Paradise Jannah. 

Note 5. Everyone who believed in Allaah and did good deeds goes to Paradise Jannah. 

Note 6. This revelation is so important that Allaah has repeated it in Quran 5:69

In Quran 2:62 and Quran 5:69 the promise of Paradise Jannah is not for those who “believe” but only for those who “believed” meaning who died (past tense) because it is not until the time of death that your true belief or disbelief and your good and evil deeds are judged,

Allaah repeated Quran 2:62 and Quran 5:69 two times because it is only with Quran 2:62 and Quran 5:69 that there are no contradictions within the Quran and between the Quran and the Torah Taurat and between the Quran and the Gospel Injil as proof in Quran 4:82 to the Jews in the time of Prophet Muhammad who are promised Paradise Jannah in Quran 3:113-3:115 and to the Christians in the time of Prophet Muhammad who are promised Paradise Jannah in Quran 5:82-5:85 and to the stone idol worshippers 1400 years ago who are not promised Paradise Jannah in Quran 3:85 and to all people today and in the future that the Quran is from Allaah because the Quran contains no contradictions.

If Quran 2:62 and Quran 5:69 did not exist then it would be proof that the Quran was not from Allaah because without Quran 2:62 and Quran 5:69 the Quran would contradict its self and contradict the Torah Taurat and contradict the Gospel Injil.

Quran 2:62 and Quran 5:69 is good news for Jews, Christians, Sabians, Muslims and all the people in the world confirming they will all come together again in a life after death. 

 

7. Why is ALM Alif Lam Mim الم in Quran chapter 2? 

ALM Alif Lam Mim الم are the names of Allaah Gabriel Muhammad in Quran 2:1 A-llah gabrie-L M-uhammad ا-llah gabrie-م ل-uhammad. 

ALM Alif Lam Mim الم are the names of Allaah Gabriel Muhammad and Quran 2:1 - 2:2 and Quran 2:97 shows the Quran is revelation from Allaah through the Holy Spirit Angel Gabriel Jibril to the mind of Prophet Muhammad confirming what was revealed before the Quran in the Scripture of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim in the Torah Taurat and the Torah Taurat and the Psalm Zabur of David Dawud in the Tanakh Hebrew scriptures and the Tanakh Hebrew scriptures which is with the Jewish people today and explaining the story of Prophet Jesus Isa in the Gospel Injil of Jesus Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John which is with the Christian people today as the proof that Allaah is real and the Quran is truthful. 


Prophet Jesus Isa did not write anything because everything Jesus taught by his mouth was already written in the Tanakh Jewish scripture meaning Jesus did not add or subtract from what is in the Tanakh Jewish scripture in Gospel of Matthew 5:17-20 and Gospel of Matthew 23:1-3


The four Gospels are four reports about Jesus meaning Jesus never wrote anything and what he said was passed by mouth until it was written many years later.


Quran 5:68 says observe the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil and Quran 5:47 tells Christians to judge by the Gospel Injil (not by the other books in the New Testament Bible because what Paul and others teach contradicts what Jesus is teaching in the Gospel) meaning whatever in the Gospel Injil is confirmed in the Torah Taurat came from Jesus and whatever contradicts the Torah Taurat came from the unknown writers who are traditionally called Mark, Matthew, Luke and John in a test from Allaah described in 1 Kings 13:14-24 teaching that the word of Allaah will not change and do not believe anyone (for example Mark, Matthew, Luke and John) if in stories they claim the word of Allaah has changed.


Allaah would never allow the proof that Allaah is real to be lost because Allaah is just to every generation of humans who put their trust in the Books of Allaah in Quran 4:136.


Anyone can reveal a book and claim all other books are corrupted but only Allaah can reveal a Quran to Muslims and a Torah Taurat to Jews which confirm and explain each other in Quran 28:48-49 meaning the Quran and Torah Taurat are correctly understood when they confirm and explain each other.


Every prophet after Moses Musa reminded the Jewish people to observe the Sabbath Day forever in each generation as instructed in the Torah Taurat because it is their eternal covenant with Allaah in Quran 2:40-41.

1. Jews and Christians who follow their Book and also believe the Quran shall receive a double reward in the hereafter in Quran 28:54, Quran 34:37 and Quran 57:28.

2. Jews who follow the Tanakh Jewish scripture and believe the Quran are correctly observing the Torah Taurat.

3. Christians who follow the Gospels and believe the Quran are correctly observing the Gospel Injil.

4. Muslims who follow the Quran so that it agrees with the Tanakh Jewish scripture and explains the story of Prophet Jesus in the Gospel Injil are correctly observing the Quran

Quran 4:136 Verse 4:136 “... and whoever has no faith inHis (Allaah’s) Booksthen he has strayed far away (from Allaah)

Quran 2:97 Verse 2:97 Say (Prophet Muhammad M Mim م M-uhammad م-uhammad, to the people), who is against (Angel) Gabriel Jibril (L Lam ل gabrie-L gabrie-ل) because it is he (Angel Gabriel Jibril) who has revealed this (Scripture, the Quran) to your heart (Prophet Muhammad) by the permission of Allaah (A Alif ا A-llah ا-llah) confirming what was revealed before it (in the Gospel Injil and in the Torah Taurat), and as a guidance and good news for those who believe.

 

8. How can you know if you correctly understand N Q S ALM ALR ALMR ALMS HM TH’ TS’ TS’M YS’ A’S’Q KH’YA’S in the Quran?

ALM is the second most frequently used combination of these 14 letters in the Quran therefore the meaning of ALM will clearly show why it is the second most frequently used combination of these letters. 

Revelation in the Quran descended from ALM Allaah gabrieL Muhammad ALM Allaah jibriL Muhammad.

 

See. The meaning of ALM ALR ALMR ALMS HM TH TS TSM YS ASQ KHYAS N Q S in the Quran.

Quran 2:2 Koran 2:2 Verse 2:2 Ayah 2:2 Ayat 2:2 Aya 2:2 - that Book (the Quran) in which there is no doubt is a guidance for those who are conscious of Allaah.

 

Quran 2:3 Koran 2:3 Verse 2:3 Ayah 2:3 Ayat 2:3 Aya 2:3 Who believe in the unseen (by having faith in what Allaah has revealed) and (who) keep up prayer and give charity from what We (Allaah) have provided for them.

 

Quran 2:4 Koran 2:4 Verse 2:4 Ayah 2:4 Ayat 2:4 Aya 2:4 And who believe in that which has been revealed to you (Prophet Muhammad) and that which was revealed before you (in the Torah Taurat and Gospel Injil and the scriptures of Abraham Ibrahim in the Torah Taurat and the Psalm Zabur in the Tanakh Jewish scripture and the Tanakh) and firmly believe in the hereafter.

 

Quran 2:5 Koran 2:5 Verse 2:5 Ayah 2:5 Ayat 2:5 Aya 2:5 They are on the right path and they shall be successful (in the hereafter).

 

Quran 2:6 Koran 2:6 Verse 2:6 Ayah 2:6 Ayat 2:6 Aya 2:6 As to those (people) who have no faith it shall make no difference if you (Prophet Muhammad) warn them (of the reward and punishment in the hereafter) or if you (Prophet Muhammad) do not warn them because they shall not believe.

 

Quran 2:7 Koran 2:7 Verse 2:7 Ayah 2:7 Ayat 2:7 Aya 2:7 Allaah sealed their hearts (minds, brains to think in one way), sealed their hearing (so they hear what they want to hear) and covered their eyes (by limiting their understanding) and for them shall come a great punishment (in the hereafter).

 

Quran 2:8 Koran 2:8 Verse 2:8 Ayah 2:8 Ayat 2:8 Aya 2:8 And there are some people who say, “We believe in Allaah and the Day of Resurrection and Judgment” but they (the hypocrites who say one thing but believe the opposite of what they say) do not really believe.

 

Quran 2:9  Koran 2:9 Verse 2:9 Ayah 2:9 Ayat 2:9 Aya 2:9 In trying to deceive Allaah and those who believe, they (the hypocrites) only deceive themselves but they don’t realize it.

 

Quran 2:10 Koran 2:10 Verse 2:10 Ayah 2:10 Ayat 2:10 Aya 2:10 There is a disease of disbelief (doubt in Allaah) in their hearts and Allaah adds to their disease (doubt) and they (the hypocrites) shall be punished (in the hereafter) for their lying (deceiving).

 

Quran 2:11 Koran 2:11 Verse 2:11 Ayah 2:11 Ayat 2:11 Aya 2:11 When it is said to them (the hypocrites who say one thing but they believe the opposite of what they say) “Do not misbehave on the earth" they say, "we only want to make it (the Earth) better."

 

Quran 2:12 Koran 2:12 Verse 2:12 Ayah 2:12 Ayat 2:12 Aya 2:12 Truly they (the hypocrites) are the ones who misbehave but they don’t realize it.

 

Quran 2:13 Koran 2:13 Verse 2:13 Ayah 2:13 Ayat 2:13 Aya 2:13 And when they (the hypocrites) are asked to believe like other people believe, they (the hypocrites) say: "Should we believe like the ignorant (people who do not know anything)?" However they (the hypocrites) are the ignorant (people who do not know anything), even though they do not realize it.

Comment 1.  Hurtful words are a test from Allaah.

1. Allaah in Quran 3:186 says hurtful words are a test from Allaah which every Muslim will certainly hear and those Muslims who are patient when they hear hurtful words and remember Allaah when they hear hurtful words will pass this test and be rewarded by Allaah in the hereafter.

 

Quran 3:186 Verse 3:186 Ayah 3:186 You shall certainly be tested in your wealth (for charity) and in yourselves (for righteousness) and you shall certainly hear many hurtful things from those who were given the Scripture before you (from some of the Jews and some of the Christians) and from those who ascribe partners to Allaah (such as some of the stone idol worshippers) and if you are patient (when you hear hurtful things) and fear Allaah (when you hear hurtful things) then indeed (you have obeyed Allaah in this test and) that (obedience to Allaah) is of the matters of determination (by Allaah of your reward in the hereafter).

 

2. Allaah in Quran 7:126 shows that patience is a blessing that you ask from Allaah.

3. Allaah in Quran 16:127 says be patient.

Allaah is the most patient so people who are patient are closest to the way of Allaah.

4. Allaah in Quran 20:130 says be patient with what they say and pray to Allaah so that you will be satisfied in the hereafter.

5. Allaah in Quran 38:17 says be patient with what they say by remembering Allaah and by asking Allaah to forgive your sins.

6. Allaah in Quran 41:34, Quran 41:35 and Quran 41:36 says respond to evil with good behaviour and Allaah willing your enemy will become your close friend.

7. Allaah in Quran 50:39 says be patient with what people say by remembering Allaah and praying to Allaah.

8. Allaah in Quran 73:10 says be patient with what they say and when you leave them be polite.

9. Forgive your enemy.

Allaah forgives you if you forgive others (Quran 39:53, Quran 42:43, Quran 45:14 and Quran 64:14).

Love your neighbour (Quran 42:43).

Love your enemy (Quran 41:34 – 41:36, Quran 42:43 and Quran 60:7).

Forgive your enemy (Quran 41:34 – 41:36 and Quran 42:43. Allaah will forgive even those who mocked Prophet Muhammad and those who plotted to kill Prophet Muhammad if they repent and ask Allaah for forgiveness in Quran 8:30 – 8:33).

Forgive your neighbour (Quran 42:43).

Forgive disbelievers (Quran 45:14).

Forgive believers (Quran 49:10).

Forgive Jews (Quran 5:13).

Forgive the killer (Quran 5:45 and Quran 85:10).

Exploding bombs in crowds is forbidden by Allaah (Quran 48:25).

Fighting today is not in the cause of Allaah (Quran 48:25 comments).

If you pardon what people have done and overlook the faults of people and forgive people then Allaah is forgiving and merciful to you (Quran 39:53, Quran 42:43, Quran 45:14 and Quran 64:14).

Comment 1. See Quran 2:13 comments.

 

Quran 2:15 Koran 2:15 Verse 2:15 Ayah 2:15 Ayat 2:15 Aya 2:15 Because of their mockery Allaah leaves those (hypocrites) who mock (the followers of Prophet Muhammad) to wander blindly (with no genuine faith in Allaah).

Comment 1. See Quran 2:13 comments.

 

Quran 2:16 Koran 2:16 Verse 2:16 Ayah 2:16 Ayat 2:16 Aya 2:16 These (hypocrites) are the people who exchange good guidance for error (because they have done wrong, they have lost the guidance of Allaah) and gained nothing from the deal (whatever they do in this life shall bring no gain in the hereafter) because they are on the wrong path (with no genuine faith in Allaah).

Comment 1. See Quran 2:13 comments.

 

Quran 2:17 Koran 2:17 Verse 2:17 Ayah 2:17 Ayat 2:17 Aya 2:17 They (the hypocrites who say one thing but they believe the opposite thing) are like the person that lights a fire and when the light is around them (they say they have faith and understanding), then Allaah takes away their light and leaves them in darkness (because they have no faith) so they cannot see (they cannot understand).

Comment 1. See Quran 2:13 comments.

 

Quran 2:18 Koran 2:18 Verse 2:18 Ayah 2:18 Ayat 2:18 Aya 2:18 They (the hypocrites who say one thing but they believe the opposite thing) are deaf (they cannot hear “understand” the truth from the messenger of Allaah), dumb (they cannot speak the truth), and blind (they cannot see the true path to Allaah’s guidance) and (they) cannot return (to the right path of Allaah’s guidance).

Comment 1. See Quran 2:13 comments.

 

Quran 2:19 Koran 2:19 Verse 2:19 Ayah 2:19 Ayat 2:19 Aya 2:19 Like a rainstorm from the sky within which is darkness (disbelief in Allaah), thunder (the threat of punishment) and lightning (the clear revelations of Allaah), they (the hypocrites who say one thing but they believe the opposite of what they say) put their fingers in their ears (they do not listen) against the thunder (the threat of punishment) for fear of death (by leaving the guidance of Allaah). Allaah (the one with all knowledge and power) encompasses those without faith (in Allaah, no one can escape from Allaah).

Comment 1. See Quran 2:13 comments.

 

Quran 2:20 Koran 2:20 Verse 2:20 Ayah 2:20 Ayat 2:20 Aya 2:20 The lightning almost takes away their sight from them (the hypocrites who say one thing but they believe the opposite thing). Whenever it (the Quran) lights (the path) they (can see briefly and they say they have faith and) they walk (a few steps) but when it becomes dark (because of something they do not want to hear) they standstill (because they have no real faith). If Allaah willed He (Allaah) could have taken away their hearing and their sight (as He took away their ability to hear the truth and their ability to see the true path to Allaah’s guidance). Allaah has power over all things.

Comment 1. See Quran 2:13 comments.

 

Quran 2:21 Koran 2:21 Verse 2:21 Ayah 2:21 Ayat 2:21 Aya 2:21 O humans, worship your Lord (Allaah), who created you and (created) those (humans) before you so that you may fear and obey Him (Allaah, by doing right and avoiding wrong).

 

Quran 2:22 Koran 2:22 Verse 2:22 Ayah 2:22 Ayat 2:22 Aya 2:22 Allaah is the one who has made the earth a resting place for you and made the sky like a canopy and (who) causes water to pour down from the sky to produce fruits as food for you. So do not worship (do not pray to) idols or (so called) partners (of Allaah such as prophets, sons, mothers, saints etc) as equals to Allaah (now that you know Allaah is the creator and the only one with the power to hear prayer).

  

Quran 2:23 Koran 2:23 Verse 2:23 Ayah 2:23 Ayat 2:23 Aya 2:23 And if you are in doubt concerning that which We (Allaah through Angel Gabriel Jibril) have revealed to Our servant (Prophet Muhammad) then produce a chapter like it (the Quran) and call your witnesses (and the gods you mistakenly worship) other than Allaah (the creator of every creation) if you are truthful (in your belief that the Quran is invented by a human).

 

Quran 2:24 Koran 2:24 Verse 2:24 Ayah 2:24 Ayat 2:24 Aya 2:24 But if you cannot do it and you never shall, then guard yourself against the fire and stones prepared in the hereafter (as punishment) for those without faith (in Allaah).

 

Quran 2:25 Koran 2:25 Verse 2:25 Ayah 2:25 Ayat 2:25 Aya 2:25 And give the good news to those who believe and who do good deeds that they shall have gardens in which rivers flow in Paradise. Every time they are given a fruit (to eat in Paradise) they shall say, “This is what was given to us before” and it will be like it (like the food they enjoyed before on the Earth) and they shall live forever with purified (sinless) spouses in Paradise (where human souls will have no menstruation, no stool, no urine and no sweat).

 

Quran 2:26 Koran 2:26 Verse 2:26 Ayah 2:26 Ayat 2:26 Aya 2:26 From Allaah come stories that give guidance, these are stories about things as small as a mosquito to stories about larger things and those who believe know it is the truth from Allaah but those who have no faith say, “What does Allaah want to teach us in this story?” (Meaning- “What use is there in this story?”). By this He (Allaah) causes many to go on the wrong path and many He (Allaah) guides to the right path. The people who are misled (on the wrong path) are those people who are disobedient to Allaah.

Comment 1. Truth means.

Quran 26:196 Verse 26:196 It (the revelations from Allaah in the Quran) is (also) in the Scriptures of the people of the past (in the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil). 

Quran 41:43 Verse 41:43 Nothing is said (by Allaah) to you (Prophet Muhammad) except what has already been said to the messengers before you. Your Lord (Allaah) is the possessor of forgiveness and severe punishment.

 

Quran 2:27 Koran 2:27 Verse 2:27 Ayah 2:27 Ayat 2:27 Aya 2:27 Those who break the laws of Allaah’s covenant (agreement) after accepting them, and who stop doing what Allaah ordered them to do and who misbehave on the earth, they are the losers (in the hereafter).

Comment 1. Punishment for Apostasy is from Allaah not from humans for the apostate who did no crime and did not fight Muslims.

In the Quran Allaah ordered freedom of religious belief 1400 years before the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

 

Quran 2:28 Koran 2:28 Verse 2:28 Ayah 2:28 Ayat 2:28 Aya 2:28 How can you disbelieve in Allaah? You were dead (you did not exist) and He (Allaah) gave you life. Then He (Allaah) shall give you death, then again He (Allaah) shall bring you to life (in the hereafter) and to Him (Allaah) you shall return.

 

Quran 2:29 Koran 2:29 Verse 2:29 Ayah 2:29 Ayat 2:29 Aya 2:29 He (Allaah) created for you (humans) all that is on Earth (in Quran 41:10 in 4 days or 4 periods of time which is confirmed by day 2 in Torah Genesis 1:6 – 1:8, day 3 in Torah Genesis 1:9 – 1:13, day 5 in Torah Genesis 1:20 – 1:23 and day 6 in Torah Genesis 1:24 – 1:31). Moreover He (Allaah) turned to the heaven and He (Allaah) made them seven heavens (7 Universes in 2 days or 2 periods of time in Quran 41:12 which are confirmed by the construction of the sky and the first heaven in day 1 in Torah Genesis 1:1 – 1:5 and day 4 in Torah Genesis 1:14 – 1:19 which were “completed” within the two days “as seven heavens” or 7 universes in Quran 41:12). He (Allaah) has knowledge of everything. 

Comment 1. See Quran 41:9 comments.

 

Quran 2:30 Koran 2:30 Verse 2:30 Ayah 2:30 Ayat 2:30 Aya 2:30 And (Prophet Muhammad) when your Lord (Allaah) said to the angels, "I am going to place a caretaker (humans) on the earth," they (the angels) said (out of curiosity), "Shall You (Allaah) place on the earth those who shall misbehave and shed blood (as a result of giving them free will) while we (the angels who never disobey Allaah, continue to) glorify You (Allaah) with praises and thanks? He (Allaah) said, "I (Allaah) know what you (the angels) do not know (about My plan to give humans the ability to gain knowledge with kindness and gain wisdom with mercy and reward those humans who follow the example of forgiveness and mercy that Allaah has given to them)."

 

Quran 2:31 Koran 2:31 Verse 2:31 Ayah 2:31 Ayat 2:31 Aya 2:31 And He (Allaah) taught Adam the names of all of them (creatures) and then He (Allaah) showed them (creatures) to the angels and said (to the angels), "Tell Me (Allaah) the names of these (creatures) if you (angels) are right (in your understanding)."

Comment 1. The Torah confirms the Quran. 

Genesis 2:19 And out of the ground the LORD Allaah formed every beast of the field, and every bird of the air; and brought them to the man (Adam) to see what he would call them; and whatever the man (Adam) would call every living creature, that was to be their name. 

Genesis 2:20 And the man (Adam) gave names to all cattle, and to the birds of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found a companion for him.

 

Quran 2:32 Koran 2:32 Verse 2:32 Ayah 2:32 Ayat 2:32 Aya 2:32 Then the angels said, “Glory be to You (Allaah), we have no knowledge except what You (Allaah) have taught us. Truly only You (Allaah) are all knowing and all wise."

 

Quran 2:33 Koran 2:33 Verse 2:33 Ayah 2:33 Ayat 2:33 Aya 2:33 Allaah said, “O Adam, tell them (tell the angels) the names of these things” and when he (Adam) said their names, Allaah said (to the angels) “Did I (Allaah) not tell you that I (Allaah) know the unseen in the heavens and the earth and I (Allaah) know what you reveal and what you conceal (meaning Allaah knows all things)?"  

 

Quran 2:34 Koran 2:34 Verse 2:34 Ayah 2:34 Ayat 2:34 Aya 2:34 And when We (Allaah) said to the angels, “Prostrate (bow) yourselves in front of Adam” they prostrated (bowed) except Iblis (later known as Satan Shaitan) who refused because he was proud (arrogant) and (he) rejected faith (in Allaah’s command).

Comment 1. Satan Shaitan was arrogant because he believed he was superior to Adam.

Arrogance leads to misguidance because the arrogant follow their desires instead of following the example of Allaah.

 

Quran 2:35 Koran 2:35 Verse 2:35 Ayah 2:35 Ayat 2:35 Aya 2:35 And We (Allaah) said, "O Adam, you and your spouse (Eve Hawa) shall live in the garden of Paradise and (you can) eat freely wherever you want but do not come near this tree or you both shall be wrongdoers."  

 

Quran 2:36 Koran 2:36 Verse 2:36 Ayah 2:36 Ayat 2:36 Aya 2:36 But Satan caused (with Allaah’s permission) them (Adam and Eve Hawa to have their faith in Allaah tested after they were warned not to go to the tree) to slip (to sin and fall) from Paradise and We (Allaah) said “Go down as enemies between yourselves (Satan Shaitan and humans) and Earth shall be your home with provisions where you shall live for a time.”

 

Quran 2:37 Koran 2:37 Verse 2:37 Ayah 2:37 Ayat 2:37 Aya 2:37 Then Adam received from his Lord words (of guidance) and his Lord (Allaah) forgave him. Truly Allaah is the One who forgives and He (Allaah) is the Most Merciful. 

Comment 1. The first time Allaah forgave human sin was in the time of Adam and Eve Hawa. 

Adam was the first human and he disobeyed Allaah.

Allaah taught Adam how to ask for forgiveness and how to repent and Adam was forgiven by Allaah.

As the first human to have talked with Allaah he is the first Prophet because he is the first to carry Allaah’s instructions to the first generation of humans.

 

Quran 2:38 Koran 2:38 Verse 2:38 Ayah 2:38 Ayat 2:38 Aya 2:38 We (Allaah) said, "Go out all of you (Adam and Eve Hawa and Satan Shaitan) from Paradise, then whenever there is guidance to you from Me (Allaah) whoever follows My (Allaah’s) guidance shall have no fear and shall not grieve (in the Hereafter).”

Comment 1. The first time Allaah promised returning humans back to eternal life was in the time of Adam and Eve Hawa. 

Allaah forgave the first human sin as proof that Allaah is the Most Merciful.

 

Quran 2:39 Koran 2:39 Verse 2:39 Ayah 2:39 Ayat 2:39 Aya 2:39 But those (like Satan Shaitan) who have no faith and deny Our (Allaah’s) revelations shall live (forever) in fire in the hereafter.

 

Quran 2:40 Koran 2:40 Verse 2:40 Ayah 2:40 Ayat 2:40 Aya 2:40 O Children of Israel (the Jews, the Hebrews), remember My (Allaah’s) favour which I (Allaah) put on you (in the Torah covenant in Deuteronomy 31:9, Deuteronomy 4:13, Deuteronomy 28:69, Deuteronomy 4:31, Deuteronomy 7:9 - 7:12 commanding that no one shall add or subtract from the Torah in Deuteronomy 4:2 and Deuteronomy 13:1 in Jewish Tanakh or Deuteronomy 12:32 in a Christian Bible and forever in Deuteronomy 5:10, Deuteronomy 29:28 in Jewish Tanakh or Deuteronomy 29:29 in a Christian Bible, Psalm 111:9, Isaiah 59:21 is the promise to the Jewish people who are mentioned in Isaiah 36:11 and Isaiah 36:13 and Gospel of Matthew 5:17 - 5:20 and Quran 2:40)? Fulfill My covenant (in the Torah) and I (Allaah) will fulfill your covenant (in the Torah) and fear (no one but) Me (Allaah. A false prophet will believe the word of Allaah has changed in Deuteronomy 13:2 - 13:4 and 1 Kings 13:14 - 1 Kings 13:24. Paul is a false prophet because he teaches the word of Allaah in the Torah changed in Romans chapter 7 and teaches new words that cannot be found in the Torah. Muhammad is a true prophet because he confirms Allaah orders Jews to follow the Torah Taurat in Quran 2:40 and Jews be protected as “the people of the book.” Jews who follow their book and also believe the Quran are promised a double reward in the hereafter in Quran 28:54, Quran 34:37 and Quran 57:28 meaning the reward for every good deed they do will be doubled because they believed the Quran which tells the Jewish people to follow the Torah Taurat which is their eternal covenant between Allaah and the Hebrew people forever. Report card on the Apostle Paul: Pass or fail? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TNtkqjLDJXo  Paul Q&A  https://sites.google.com/view/quran-tanakh-gospel  ). 

Comment 1. The promise of Allaah to the Jewish people.

1. Quran 2:40 is Allaah speaking through Prophet Muhammad to the Jewish people in Yathrib Arabia 1400 years ago and Allaah is telling the Jews to obey their covenant with Allaah which is the Taurat Taurat.

Allaah is telling us that the Jews have the Taurat Taurat and no one changed it because Allaah is commanding the Jews to fear no one but Allaah and follow the Torah Taurat which is their covenant with Allaah.


2. Jews like Quran 3:113 - 3:115 and Christians like Quran 5:82 - 5:85 who follow their Book in Quran 5:68 and also believe the Quran will receive a double reward in the hereafter in Quran 28:54, Quran 34:37 and Quran 57:28 meaning the reward for every good deed they do will be doubled because they believed the Quran which tells the Jewish people to follow the Torah Taurat which is their eternal covenant between Allaah and the Hebrew people forever and tells the Christian people to follow the Gospel Injil which is explained in the Quran and tells the Muslim people to follow the Quran is confirmed in Quran 2:40, Quran 2:41, Quran 2:62, Quran 2:106, Quran 3:93, Quran 4:123, Quran 5:43, Quran 5:47, Quran 5:48, Quran 5:69 and Quran 13:39.

 

Quran 2:41 Koran 2:41 Verse 2:41 Ayah 2:41 Ayat 2:41 Aya 2:41 And believe in what I (Allaah) have revealed (in the Quran) confirming that which is with you (the Jewish people in the Torah Taurat as proof to the stone idol worshipers of Makkah in Quran 6:114, Quran 46:10 and Quran 10:94 that the Quran is not an invented story) and do not be the first (of the people of the Book, the Jews of Yathrib Arabia today Medina Saudi Arabia) to disbelieve it (meaning, do not be the first to deny Allaah’s revelations to Prophet Muhammad), and do not let go of My revelations (Allaah’s word) for a little gain (meaning, do not reject Allaah and the hereafter because of pride arrogance or jealousy in this first life). Keep your duty to Me (Allaah).

Comment 1. The Quran confirms what is in the Torah Taurat is correct as proof Allaah is real and as proof the Quran is truthful.

Quran 2:41 is Allaah speaking through Prophet Muhammad to the Jewish people in Yathrib Arabia 1400 years ago telling the Jewish people in Yathrib Arabia that the Quran confirms (not denies and not corrects) the Torah Taurat as proof that the Quran is truthful and as proof the Quran is from Allaah.

Comment 2. The Books of Allaah.

Stories claiming the Torah Taurat is corrupted contradict all the teachings in the Quran telling us that the Jewish people have the Torah and telling us that the Torah is from Allaah and telling us that no one can change the word of Allaah because that is the proof that Allaah is real for every human until the Day of Judgement. 

 

The Jewish people judge scripture as true if it confirms the Torah Taurat.

Many Muslims say the Quran does not agree with the Torah Taurat and therefore to a Jew it means the Quran cannot be from Allaah.

 

If Muslims said the Quran confirms the Torah Taurat it would mean the Quran is from Allaah but this is not what many Muslims are telling the Jewish people today.

 

1400 years ago Prophet Muhammad said the Quran confirms the Torah Taurat meaning confirms the Torah Taurat is correct as proof the Quran is from Allaah but this is not the message many Muslims say to Jewish people today.

 

Rabbi Tovia Singer has studied the Torah Taurat and Gospel Injil and Quran and explains that the Jews have the scripture and therefore whenever anyone claims they also have the scripture the Jewish person compares their scripture to all other scriptures and if another scripture agrees with the Jewish scripture the Jew will applaud it in other words Jews are not asking if someone is or is not a prophet but a Jew asks do scriptures like the Gospel and the Quran which both say they confirm the Torah Taurat agree or disagree with the Jewish scripture.

 

When a Jew reads in the Quran that Allaah is only one the Jew applauds it meaning it agrees with the Torah.

When a Jew reads some Christian opinions that Allaah is a Trinity the Jew does not applaud it meaning it disagrees with the Torah Taurat.

See 1. Quran 28:52 comments in Quran chapter 28.

See 2. Quran 28:53 comments in Quran chapter 28.

See 3. Quran 28:54 comments in Quran chapter 28.

See 4. Quran 4:162 comments in Quran chapter 4.

 

Comment 3. The Quran confirms the Torah Taurat and explains the story of Jesus in the Gospel Injil. 

A. Prophet Muhammad in the Torah Taurat and Gospel Injil.

See Quran 7:157 comments in Quran chapter 7.

 

B. Every prophet of God is “the Word of God made flesh” meaning the word of God comes out of the mouth of every prophet of God in Deuteronomy 18:18.

See Quran 5:116 comments in Quran chapter 5.

 

C. How did Allaah save Jesus. 

See 1. Quran 4:157 and Quran 4:158 comments in Quran chapter 4.

See 2. Quran 29:57 comments in Quran chapter 29.

 

D. The second coming of Jesus and every other human is on the Day of Resurrection.

See Quran 79:7 comments in Quran chapter 79.

 

E. Examples of hadith stories which contradict the teachings of Allaah in the Quran.

See Quran 25:30 comments in Quran chapter 25.

 

F. Allaah protects the Quran, Gospel Injil and the Torah Taurat as proof Allaah is real.

https://sites.google.com/site/islamandthequran/allaah-protects-the-taurat-injil-and-quran

 

G. Jews and Christians who follow their Book and also believe the Quran will be rewarded twice in the hereafter.

See Quran 28:54 comments in Quran chapter 28.

 

Quran 2:42 Koran 2:42 Verse 2:42 Ayah 2:42 Ayat 2:42 Aya 2:42 And (Jews of Yathrib Arabia) do not mix up truth with falsehood and do not hid the truth when you know it is true.

Note 1. When you talk to people be truthful and do not hide the truth meaning the Jewish people know the truth because no one changed the Torah Taurat.

Note 2. If the Torah Taurat which existed with Jewish communities all over Arabia, Africa, Europe and Asia 1400 years ago had been changed then the Jews would not know the truth but Allaah is telling us that the Jewish people have the truth with them because Allaah tells the Jews to be truthful and do not hide the truth.

Note 3. Jews can only know the truth and not hide the truth if Allaah has protected His word in the Torah Taurat which is the covenant agreement between Allaah and the Jewish people forever in Quran 2:40.

Note 4. The Torah Taurat is confirmed by every prophet after Prophet Moses Musa including Prophet Muhammad in Quran 2:41.

Note 5. In Quran 2:42 Allaah tells the Jews to speak the truth and not hide the truth meaning the evidence for the truth is the words of Allaah in the Torah Taurat.


Quran 3:93 Koran 3:93 “… Say (Prophet Muhammad, to the Jews of Yathrib), "Bring the Torah Taurat here and recite it (to me as evidence) if what you say is true."


Quran 4:136 Koran 4:136 "... Whoever has no faith in His (Allaah’s) … Books then he has strayed far away (from Allaah).

 

Quran 2:43 Koran 2:43 Verse 2:43 Ayah 2:43 Ayat 2:43 Aya 2:43 And be consistent in prayer and charity and bow down your heads together with all who worship Me (Allaah the one who is your creator).

 

Quran 2:44 Koran 2:44 Verse 2:44 Ayah 2:44 Ayat 2:44 Aya 2:44 How, while you recite the scriptures (of Allaah’s commands), can you tell people to follow the scriptures while you forget to follow it yourselves? Have you no sense?

 

Quran 2:45 Koran 2:45 Verse 2:45 Ayah 2:45 Ayat 2:45 Aya 2:45 And seek assistance through patience and prayer; this is difficult except for people who are humble (satisfied and happy to obey Allaah).

 

Quran 2:46 Koran 2:46 Verse 2:46 Ayah 2:46 Ayat 2:46 Aya 2:46 And who are sure that they shall meet their Lord (Allaah) and that they shall return to Him (Allaah, in the hereafter).

 

Quran 2:47 Koran 2:47 Verse 2:47 Ayah 2:47 Ayat 2:47 Aya 2:47 O Children of Israel, remember My (Allaah’s) favour which I (Allaah) bestowed on you (in the Torah covenant in Deuteronomy 31:9, Deuteronomy 4:13, Deuteronomy 28:69, Deuteronomy 4:31, Deuteronomy 7:9-7:12 commanding that no one shall add or subtract from the Torah in Deuteronomy 4:2 and Deuteronomy 13:1 in Jewish Tanakh or Deuteronomy 12:32 in a Christian Bible and forever in Deuteronomy 5:10, Deuteronomy 29:28 in Jewish Tanakh or Deuteronomy 29:29 in a Christian Bible, Psalm 111:9, Isaiah 59:21 is the promise to the Jewish people who are mentioned in Isaiah 36:11 and Isaiah 36:13 and Gospel of Matthew 5:17-5:20 and Quran 2:40) and that I (Allaah) preferred you over (the creatures of) the worlds (of humans and jinn as explained in Isaiah 53 here https://sites.google.com/site/islamandthequran/isaiah-53-explained )

 

Quran 2:48 Koran 2:48 Verse 2:48 Ayah 2:48 Ayat 2:48 Aya 2:48 And guard yourselves against a Day (the Day of Judgment) when your soul cannot get help from anyone, when none can intercede for your soul and when no compensation shall be accepted or (outside) help given (in the hereafter).

 

Quran 2:49 Koran 2:49 Verse 2:49 Ayah 2:49 Ayat 2:49 Aya 2:49 And remember when We (Allaah) rescued you (the Children of Israel, the Jews, the Hebrews) from the people of the Pharaoh Firon (the King of Egypt) who gave you hard tasks and punishments, killing your sons and spared your women. This was a great trial (test) from your Lord (Allaah).

 

Quran 2:50 Koran 2:50 Verse 2:50 Ayah 2:50 Ayat 2:50 Aya 2:50 And remember when We (Allaah) separated the (Red) sea (between Egypt and the Sinai Peninsula) for you (the Children of Israel, the Jews, the Hebrews) and rescued you and drowned the followers of the Pharaoh Firon as you looked on.

 

Quran 2:51 Koran 2:51 Verse 2:51 Ayah 2:51 Ayat 2:51 Aya 2:51 And remember when We (Allaah) appointed for Prophet Moses Musa forty nights and when he was away you (the Children of Israel, the Jews, the Hebrews) took a calf (as an idol) and worshipped it as your god and you did (this) great wrong.

 

Quran 2:52 Koran 2:52 Verse 2:52 Ayah 2:52 Ayat 2:52 Aya 2:52 Then after that (great wrong) We (Allaah) forgave you (the Children of Israel, the Jews, the Hebrews) so that you might be thankful.

 

Quran 2:53 Koran 2:53 Verse 2:53 Ayah 2:53 Ayat 2:53 Aya 2:53 And remember when We (Allaah) gave Prophet Moses Musa the Book (the Torah Taurat) and the criterion (of right and wrong) so that you (the Children of Israel, the Jews, the Hebrews) might be rightly guided.

See Quran 2:41 comments  

 

Quran 2:54 Koran 2:54 Verse 2:54 Ayah 2:54 Ayat 2:54 Aya 2:54 And remember when Prophet Moses Musa said to his people (the Children of Israel, the Jews, the Hebrews), "My people, truly you have been wrong to worship the calf (the golden idol made in the image of a calf), so repent to your creator by killing (the guilty) yourselves, that shall be better for you in the sight of your Creator (Allaah)." Then your Creator (Allaah) forgave you, He (Allaah) accepts repentance and He (Allaah) is Most Merciful.

 

Quran 2:55 Koran 2:55 Verse 2:55 Ayah 2:55 Ayat 2:55 Aya 2:55 And remember when you (some among the Children of Israel) said, "Prophet Moses Musa, we shall not believe you until we see Allaah ourselves," so death took you as you tried to look (at Allaah, after you were warned not to look at Allaah). 

Comment 1. No one on Earth can look at Allaah and live means no one on Earth can enter a site that Allaah has made Holy for the purpose of communication with humans unless they have been invited to enter in Exodus 19:21-19:25 and 1 Samuel 6:19.

Quran 6:103 Verse 6:103 No one can see Him (Allaah who has no form in Deuteronomy 4:15-4:16 because Allaah is not a creation) but He (Allaah) can see everything. He (Allaah) is subtle (Allaah’s will is revealed every second) and He (Allaah) is aware of all things.

 

Torah Exodus 20:15 And they (the children of Israel) said to Prophet Moses Musa: 'You speak with us, and we will hear; but do not let Allaah speak with us, in case we die.'

 

Quran 2:56 Koran 2:56 Verse 2:56 Ayah 2:56 Ayat 2:56 Aya 2:56 Then We (Allaah) raised (resurrected) you (the Children of Israel) up after your death so that you might be thankful.

Comment 1. In the time of Prophet Moses Musa Allaah killed some among the children of Israel who violated Holy ground in Mount Sinai and then Allaah brought them back to life.

Allaah brought the children of Israel back to life so that they would be thankful to Allaah and so that they might return to the right path.

Allaah shows the children of Israel that Allaah can bring the dead back to life. 

Comment 2. Allaah brings dead people back to life on the Earth. See Quran 2:72 – 2:73

Comment 3. See Quran 2:55 comments.

 

Quran 2:57 Koran 2:57 Verse 2:57 Ayah 2:57 Ayat 2:57 Aya 2:57 And We (Allaah) made clouds that gave you (the Children of Israel) shade and We (Allaah) sent down manna (food from heaven) and quail to you and said, “Eat the good things that We (Allaah) have provided for you," but they (the Children of Israel disobeyed by not being thankful for the food that came from heaven and instead they asked for the old foods that they use to eat and so they) did not wrong Us (Allaah) but they wronged themselves (because they were not thankful to Allaah for what Allaah gave them).

Comment 1. Quran 2:57 is in Torah Taurat Exodus 16:4.

Comment 2. The people did what they wanted instead of obeying Allaah’s commands in Quran 2:61.

Not all the Jews of Yathrib are the same, some are righteous, see Quran 3:113 – 3:115. The same situation existed in the time of Prophet Moses Musa meaning in every generation there are both the wicked and the righteous among the children of Israel.

 

Quran 2:58 Koran 2:58 Verse 2:58 Ayah 2:58 Ayat 2:58 Aya 2:58 And remember when We (Allaah) said, "Enter this town (in the country of Canaan, today known as Israel and Palestine) and eat freely whatever you (the Children of Israel) wish, but enter the gate in prostration (humbly bowing) and say 'forgive us,' and We (Allaah) shall forgive you (the Children of Israel of) your sins and increase the reward for those who do good."

Comment 1. The Holy land which Allaah has given to the Children of Israel. 

Quran 5:21, Verse 5:21 "O my people (the children of Israel), enter the holy land (Canaan, today known as Israel and Palestine) which Allaah has given to you and do not turn back (in fear of the people that are there) or you shall return as the losers."

 

Quran 7:161, Verse 7:161 And it was said to them (the children of Israel), live in this town (in the country of Canaan, today known as Israel and Palestine) and eat anything you like that you find in it, and say "Relieve us of our burdens" and enter the gate (of the town) bowing humbly and then We (Allaah) shall forgive you your sins and We (Allaah) shall increase (the reward) for the doers of good.

 

Quran 2:59 Koran 2:59 Verse 2:59 Ayah 2:59 Ayat 2:59 Aya 2:59 But those (among the Children of Israel) who did wrong changed the word (meaning the order to “enter the town” in Cannan today in Israel and Palestine in Quran 2:58 and Quran 5:23 to) other than which was said to them (by saying “as long as people are there we will never be able to enter it” in Quran 5:24 which is opposite to the order given to them by Allaah); so We (Allaah) sent a punishment from heaven because they were defiantly disobeying. 

Comment 1. The children of Israel disobeyed Allaah’s commands and so the Holy land was forbidden to the children of Israel for forty years in Quran 5:26 so that a new generation among the children of Israel who had not disobeyed Allaah inherited the Holy land.

 

Quran 2:60 Koran 2:60 Verse 2:60 Ayah 2:60 Ayat 2:60 Aya 2:60 And remember, when Prophet Moses Musa asked (Allaah) for water for his people (the children of Israel, the Jews, the Hebrews), We (Allaah) told him to strike the rock with his staff, and twelve springs of water gushed out so that each of the tribes (the twelve tribes of the children of Israel) came to know its place of drinking. (And Prophet Moses Musa said) eat and drink the gifts from Allaah and do not spread conflict in the land.

 

Quran 2:61 Koran 2:61 Verse 2:61 Ayah 2:61 Ayat 2:61 Aya 2:61 And remember when you (the Children of Israel) said, "O Moses Musa, we cannot endure one kind of food so ask your Lord (Allaah) on our behalf to give us what the earth grows, its herbs, cucumbers, garlic, lentils and onions." He (Prophet Moses Musa) said "Would you exchange something that is better for you (food specially sent to you from heaven) with something not as good (the foods that you remember eating in earlier times)? Then go to any town and you shall find what you want." Humiliation, misery and the wrath of Allaah (anger of Allaah) was on them because they (the Children of Israel) disbelieved Allaah’s word by disobedience and rebellion and by killing Allaah’s prophets unjustly.

Comment 1. Killing the prophets See Quran 3:112 comments.

Not all the Jews of Yathrib are the same, some are righteous, see Quran 3:113 – 3:115. The same situation existed in the time of Prophet Moses Musa meaning in every generation there are both the wicked and the righteous among the children of Israel.

 

Quran 2:62 Koran 2:62 Verse 2:62 Ayah 2:62 Ayat 2:62 Aya 2:62 (In the hereafter) truly those (Muslims) who believed and those who became Jews, Christians and Sabians, whoever believed in Allaah and the Last Day (The Day of Resurrection) and did good deeds, they shall have their reward from their Lord, and they shall not fear or grieve (and this is confirmed in Quran 6:158 for those in the hereafter who “believed” and did good deeds. Quran 5:69 repeats Quran 2:62 meaning stop and think about what Allaah is saying in these verses confirming what is in the Hebrew Bible and the Gospel Injil of the promise of Paradise Jannah from Allaah in the books of Allaah on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement for those who “believed” and did good deeds. The Quran brings the same truth which Allaah brought to the Jewish people in the Hebrew Bible and to the Christian people in the Gospel Injil of Jesus Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John. The Quran is a confirmer of what came before it in the same way as the Gospel Injil is a confirmer of what came before it meaning the Books of Allaah confirm each other as proof Allaah is real and as proof His promise is real as explained in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQ3o3ybc-KA showing that without His permission no one can change His words in His Books which are with all humans today and until the Day of Judgement so that you can believe Allaah is real and His promise is real).

Comment 1. Who goes to Paradise Jannah?

1. The Jews who believed in Allaah and did good deeds go to Paradise Jannah. 

2. The Christians who believed in Allaah and did good deeds go to Paradise Jannah. 

3. The Sabians who believed in Allaah and did good deeds go to Paradise Jannah. 

4. The Muslims who believed in Allaah and did good deeds go to Paradise Jannah. 

5. Everyone who believed in Allaah and did good deeds goes to Paradise Jannah. 

6. This revelation is so important that Allaah has repeated it in Quran 5:69

In Quran 2:62 and Quran 5:69 the promise of Paradise Jannah is not for those who “believe” but only for those who “believed” meaning who died (past tense) because it is not until the time of death that your true belief or disbelief and your good and evil deeds are judged,

Allaah repeated Quran 2:62 and Quran 5:69 two times because it is only with Quran 2:62 and Quran 5:69 that there are no contradictions within the Quran and between the Quran and the Torah Taurat and between the Quran and the Gospel Injil as proof in Quran 4:82 to the Jews in the time of Prophet Muhammad who are promised Paradise Jannah in Quran 3:113-3:115 and to the Christians in the time of Prophet Muhammad who are promised Paradise Jannah in Quran 5:82-5:85 and to the stone idol worshippers 1400 years ago who are not promised Paradise Jannah in Quran 3:85 and to all people today and in the future that the Quran is from Allaah because the Quran contains no contradictions.

If Quran 2:62 and Quran 5:69 did not exist then it would be proof that the Quran was not from Allaah because without Quran 2:62 and Quran 5:69 the Quran would contradict its self and contradict the Torah Taurat and contradict the Gospel Injil.

Quran 2:62 and Quran 5:69 is good news for Jews, Christians, Sabians, Muslims and all the people in the world confirming they will all come together again in a life after death.

 

Quran 2:63 Koran 2:63 Verse 2:63 Ayah 2:63 Ayat 2:63 Aya 2:63 And remember when We (Allaah) took your covenant (the agreement between the Children of Israel and Allaah) and We (Allaah) raised the Mountain (Mount Sinai Horeb) over you (saying), "Hold firm to what We (Allaah) have given you (in the Torah Taurat) and remember it so you may be righteous.”

Comment 1. Quran 2:63 confirms what is “remembered” in the Torah Taurat in relation to Allaah’s revelation on the mountain (Mount Horeb, Mount Sinai) in Torah Deuteronomy 4:11, Torah Exodus 19:9 – 19:25, 20:15 – 20:19, 24:15 – 24:18 and in Torah Deuteronomy 4:11, 5: 2 – 5:5, 5:19 – 5:28, 9:10, 10:4).

Exodus 19:17 "Moses brought the people (the children of Israel) out of the camp to meet Allaah; and they stood beneath the mountain (Mount Sinai Horeb which had been raised above them as a sign from Allaah).

Deuteronomy 4:11 "And you (the people of Moses Musa) came near and stood under the mountain (Mount Sinai Horeb which had been raised above you as a sign from Allaah) …”

Comment 2. The Jewish Talmud confirms Mount Sinai Horeb was raised over the Hebrews and confirmed in Quran 7:171.

See 1. Underneath the Mountain. 

https://www.chabad.org/parshah/article_cdo/aid/2786/jewish/Underneath-the-Mountain.htm 

 

Quran 2:64 Koran 2:64 Verse 2:64 Ayah 2:64 Ayat 2:64 Aya 2:64 Then, even after that, you (the Children of Israel) turned away, and if it had not been for the kindness of Allaah and His (Allaah’s) mercy then you would have been among the losers (in the hereafter).

Comment 1. See Quran 2:51 comments.

 

Quran 2:65 Koran 2:65 Verse 2:65 Ayah 2:65 Ayat 2:65 Aya 2:65 And certainly you (the Jews of Yathrib) have known (from the oral story of a rabbi in Yathrib explaining Nehemiah 13:18 in Tanakh Jewish scripture) that those amongst you (the Jews in the past) who broke the Sabbath (Saturday, the Jewish day of rest and praise to Allaah), We (Allaah) said to them, “Be apes, despised (by Allaah for working on the Sabbath Day meaning despised by Allaah for not observing the Torah Taurat which is a binding covenant agreement between Allaah and the Jewish people in each generation until the Day of Resurrection and Judgement in Quran 2:40, Quran 2:41, Quran 2:63, Quran 2:66, Quran 7:171, Gospel of Matthew 5:17 - 5:19, Torah Deuteronomy 4:2, 5:10, 13:1 and 29:28, Zabur Psalm 19:8 - 19:12 and 111:7 - 111:9 and Jewish Bible Malachi 3:22).” 

Comment 1. Jews who did not observe the Sabbath law in the Torah Taurat were called apes and pigs meaning “despised” because they were not observing their covenant agreement with Allaah which is binding on them forever in the Torah Taurat. 

Jewish people who do not follow the mitzvah (commandments) in the Torah Taurat law like observing the Sabbath Shabbat Shabbas which is Saturday the day of rest from Friday evening until Saturday evening are like apes and pigs meaning they are behaving like animals. 

The Quran confirms the message of every prophet after Prophet Moses Musa including Prophet Jesus Isa and Prophet Muhammad reminding the Jewish people to follow the Torah Taurat forever.

See Video: Why does the Quran call the Jews 'Apes'? Rabbi Tovia Singer responds.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=REb8HNM1z6E

 

Comment 2. The Quran is a reminder of what is in the Torah Taurat.

The Quran is a confirmation of what came before it in the Torah Taurat.

Torah Nehemiah 13:14 Remember me (Nehemiah), O my Allaah, concerning this (good deed), and do not wipe out my good deeds that I have done for the house of my Allaah, and for your wards (the children of Israel).

Torah Nehemiah 13:15 In those days I saw in Judah (today Israel and Palestine) some (people) treading wine-presses on the Sabbath (Saturday, the Jewish day of rest and praise to Allaah), and (people) bringing in heaps of corn, and (people with) lading asses carrying wine, grapes, figs and all manner of burdens which they brought into Jerusalem on the Sabbath day and I warned them in the day (of their sin) when they sold (their) provisions.

Torah Nehemiah 13:16 There also lived there men from Tyre (today in Lebanon), who brought in fish, and all manner of ware, and sold on the Sabbath to the children of Judah and in Jerusalem.

Torah Nehemiah 13:17 Then I contended with the nobles of Judah, and said to them, “What evil thing is this that you do and disrespect the Sabbath day?”

Torah Nehemiah 13:18 “Did not your fathers do that? And did not our Allaah bring all this evil upon us and upon this city? Yet you bring more wrath (from Allaah) upon (the children of) Israel by disrespecting the Sabbath.”

 

Comment 3.  The Torah Taurat commands the children of Israel to observe the Sabbath Day forever in every generation and not to add or subtract from the commandments in the Torah Taurat.

Jews who follow their Book and believe the Quran will receive a double reward in the hereafter meaning all Jews who observe the Sabbath Day are obeying the message for the Jewish people in the Quran which confirms their covenant in the Torah commandments that every generation of the children of Israel must observe the Sabbath Day forever because it is a covenant between Allaah and the children of Israel forever in the Torah Taurat commandments.

Jews like Quran 3:113-3:115 and Christians like Quran 5:82-5:85 who follow their Book in Quran 5:68 and also believe the Quran will receive a double reward in the hereafter in Quran 28:54, Quran 34:37 and Quran 57:28 meaning the reward for every good deed they do will be doubled because they believed the Quran which tells the Jewish people to follow the Torah Taurat which is their eternal covenant between Allaah and the Hebrew people forever and tells the Christian people to follow the Gospel Injil which is explained in the Quran and tells the Muslim people to follow the Quran is confirmed in Quran 2:40, Quran 2:41, Quran 2:62, Quran 2:106, Quran 3:93, Quran 4:123, Quran 5:43, Quran 5:47, Quran 5:48, Quran 5:69 and Quran 13:39.

 

Quran 2:66 Koran 2:66 Verse 2:66 Ayah 2:66 Ayat 2:66 Aya 2:66 So We (Allaah) made it (the story about what happened when some among the Jewish people did not observe the Sabbath Day as commanded in the Torah Taurat) a deterrent punishment for those who were in front of them (“be Apes” in the mind of Jewish children means humans were changed into apes when Allaah said “Be apes” they became apes. For those familiar with the oral stories of rabbis the word apes means “despised” as shown in Quran 5:60 where the words apes and pigs both mean “despised” when Allaah said “Be apes” they became despised by righteous Jews in Quran 7:164 and in Tanakh Jewish scripture Nehemiah 13:17 - 13:18) and (as a warning to observe the Torah Taurat) for those who came after them (among the Jewish people who heard this story) and as a warning for (all) those (people who hear this story and) who fear Allaah. 

Comment 1. See Quran 2:65 comments.

 

Quran 2:67 Koran 2:67 Verse 2:67 Ayah 2:67 Ayat 2:67 Aya 2:67 And remember when Prophet Moses Musa said to his people, "Truly Allaah commands that you sacrifice a cow” and they (the Children of Israel) said, “are you making fun of us?” and Prophet Moses Musa replied, “I seek the protection of Allaah from being one of the ignorant (like these people who are without faith).”

Comment 1. The Quran is a reminder of what is in the Torah Taurat.

The Quran is a confirmation of what came before it in the Torah Taurat.

Torah Numbers 19:1 And the Lord (Allaah) spoke to Prophet Moses Musa and to Prophet Aaron Harun, saying:

Torah Numbers 19:2 This is the statute of the law which the Lord (Allaah) has commanded, saying, Speak to the children of Israel, that they bring you a red heifer (a cow that has not had a calf), faultless, which has no blemish (no marks), and on which never came yoke (meaning which had never been made to do work).

 

Quran 2:68 Koran 2:68 Verse 2:68 Ayah 2:68 Ayat 2:68 Aya 2:68 They (the Children of Israel) said, “Ask your Lord (Allaah) for us to make it clear to us what kind of cow she is.” Prophet Moses Musa said, “He (Allaah) says, she is a cow not too old or too young but of middle age so do now what you are commanded.”

See Quran 2:67 comment.

 

Quran 2:69 Koran 2:69 Verse 2:69 Ayah 2:69 Ayat 2:69 Aya 2:69 They (the Children of Israel) said, “Ask your Lord (Allaah) for us to make it clear to us her colour.” Prophet Moses Musa said, “He (Allaah) says, she is a fawn-colored calf, pure and rich in the shade of its colour (the red shade of brown) and a delight to see.”

See Quran 2:67 comment.

 

Quran 2:70 Koran 2:70 Verse 2:70 Ayah 2:70 Ayat 2:70 Aya 2:70 They (the Children of Israel) said, “Ask your Lord (Allaah) for us to make it clear to us what she is because to us the cows all look the same, we ask for guidance if Allaah wills.”

See Quran 2:67 comment.

 

Quran 2:71 Koran 2:71 Verse 2:71 Ayah 2:71 Ayat 2:71 Aya 2:71 Prophet Moses Musa said, "He (Allaah) says she is not trained to plough the soil or water the fields and she is sturdy without a mark on her." They (the Children of Israel) said, "Now you have brought the truth." Then they offered her in sacrifice, although they nearly decided not to.

Comment 1. "Although they nearly decided not to."

Torah Deuteronomy 9:24 (Prophet Moses Musa said to the children of Israel), “You have been rebellious against the Lord (Allaah) from the day that I knew you.”

See Quran 2:67 comment.

 

Quran 2:72 Koran 2:72 Verse 2:72 Ayah 2:72 Ayat 2:72 Aya 2:72 And remember when you killed a man and accused each other of it (the killing) and Allaah showed what you (the Children of Israel) were hiding (meaning, showed who the killer was).

 

Quran 2:73 Koran 2:73 Verse 2:73 Ayah 2:73 Ayat 2:73 Aya 2:73 We (Allaah) said, "Hit the (dead) body with a piece of the sacrificed cow" and Allaah brought the dead to life and showed this to you (the Children of Israel) so that you may understand (that Allaah knows everything and you cannot hide anything from Allaah who is the creator of every creation). –

Comment 1. Allaah brings the dead back to life.

See Quran 2:55 – 2:56

 

Quran 2:74 Koran 2:74 Verse 2:74 Ayah 2:74 Ayat 2:74 Aya 2:74 After that, your hearts became hardened (against acceptance of the truth), like rocks and even harder (than rocks). There are rocks from which rivers gush, and there are rocks which split apart so that water flows and there are rocks which fall down for fear of Allaah (but your hearts are unmoved and not humbled to Allaah). Allaah knows what you do.

 

Quran 2:75 Koran 2:75 Verse 2:75 Ayah 2:75 Ayat 2:75 Aya 2:75 Do you (Prophet Muhammad) hope that they (all the Jews in Yathrib) will believe you (Prophet Muhammad) while there has been a party of them, who hear the words of Allaah (recited by you), then they distort it from (what you recited by wrongly quoting what they heard of the Quran) after they (correctly) understood it, while they know (they distorted what you had recited of the Quran)? 

Comment 1. Distortion of the word of Allaah is inside the human mind and in human conversation.

 

Quran 2:76 Koran 2:76 Verse 2:76 Ayah 2:76 Ayat 2:76 Aya 2:76 And when they (the Jews in Yathrib) meet those who believed (the Muslims), they (the Jews in Yathrib) say, "We also believed." But when some of them (Jews in Yathrib) meet with some (other Jews in Yathrib), they say, "Do you tell them (the Muslims) what Allaah has told to you (in the Jewish Bible)?” (Not to teach wisdom but only) so that they (the Muslim) can argue with you (the Jew) about it before your Lord?” Do you not understand (that the knowledge of Allaah is for the teaching of wisdom to all humankind and not for making disputes between humankind)?"

 

Quran 2:77 Koran 2:77 Verse 2:77 Ayah 2:77 Ayat 2:77 Aya 2:77 Do they (the Jews of Yathrib) not know that Allaah knows what they hide and what they reveal (in this and all other matters)?

 

Quran 2:78 Koran 2:78 Verse 2:78 Ayah 2:78 Ayat 2:78 Aya 2:78 And among them (the lettered Jews of Yathrib Arabia today Medina Saudi Arabia, the Jews with religious knowledge in Yathrib Arabia, the Jews who are educated in the Scriptures) are unlettered people (ummiyyoona, Ummiyyun, ommiyyoona, Jews who are uneducated in the Scripture, Jewish people who have not studied the Jewish Scriptures, Jews) who do not know the Scripture except from what they heard others say and (with that small knowledge) they do nothing but conjecture (guess and speculate about the meaning of the Scriptures because they have not studied the Torah Taurat as every Jew should have studied). 

Comment 1. Unlettered Ummi does not mean cannot read and write.

Unlettered Ummi means uneducated in the Book of Allaah.

Before the Quran Prophet Muhammad was unlettered meaning he was not educated in the book of Allaah.

After the Quran Prophet Muhammad was lettered meaning he was educated in the book of Allaah.

A Jew or Christian or Muslim who is not educated in the book of Allaah is an unlettered Jew or unlettered Christian or unlettered Muslim.

A Jew or Christian or Muslim who is educated in the book of Allaah is a lettered Jew or lettered Christian or lettered Muslim.

Prophet Muhammad is the unlettered prophet because he was not educated in the book of Allaah until the Quran was revealed to him. 

When the Quran was revealed to Prophet Muhammad he was lettered meaning educated in the book of Allaah.

Comment 2. Prophet Muhammad can read and write.

Quran 25:5 shows that the people of Makkah knew that Prophet Muhammad can read and write meaning the idea that Prophet Muhammad cannot read and write is not from Allaah and not from Prophet Muhammad and not from the Quran but came from people who did not understand the meaning of lettered meaning educated in the scripture of Allaah and unlettered meaning not educated in the scripture of Allaah. 

 

See 1. Quran 25:5 shows that the people of Makkah knew that Prophet Muhammad can read and write meaning the idea that Prophet Muhammad cannot read and write is not from Allaah and not from Prophet Muhammad and not from the Quran but came from people who did not understand the meaning of lettered meaning educated in the scripture of Allaah and unlettered meaning not educated in the scripture of Allaah. 

See Quran 25:5 comment in Quran chapter 25.

See 5. Quran 25:30 comments with examples of hadith stories which contradict the teachings of Allaah in Quran chapter 25.

Comment 3. Satan Shaitan misguides by confusing humans about the true meaning of some verses in the Quran.

See Quran 2:78, 3:20, 3:75, 3:144, 4:157, 4:158, 5:75, 6:158, 7:157, 7:158, 21:34, 21:81, 21:82, 21:95, 27:82, 29:48, 32:23, 33:40, 37:102, 38:26, 39:30, 40:46, 42:52, 43:61, 54:1, 56:79, 62:2, 68:1, 69:40, 80:15, 81:19, 96:1, 96:4, 96:5 comments.

 

Quran 2:79 Koran 2:79 Verse 2:79 Ayah 2:79 Ayat 2:79 Aya 2:79 (The warning given by Allaah in Torah Deuteronomy 4:2 - 4:3 and in the Gospel of Matthew 5:17 - 5:19 is confirmed in the Quran). Warning (of serious consequences) to those who write the Scriptures (falsely) with their own hands and then say, "This is from Allaah," so they can exchanged it (the truth of Allaah’s revelations) for a small price (of worldly gain such as profit, pride or fame because of arrogance, jealousy or dishonesty). Warning (of serious consequences) to them for what their hands have written and a warning to them for what (sin) they (shall) earn. 

Comment 1. Explain Quran 2:79.

Regarding Quran 2:79 and “the warning” this verse is confirming a similar verse in the Torah as proof these books are from Allaah. 

The warning given by Allaah in Torah Deuteronomy 4:2 - 4:3 is confirmed in Quran 2:79. 

Warning in the Torah Taurat not to write or say “this is from Allaah” when it is not from Allaah.

Quran 2:79 is confirmation of what was revealed before the Quran in the Torah Taurat and in the Gospel Injil. 

Quran 2:79 warns people not to write verses and falsely claim they are from Allaah and this is the same warning in the Torah Taurat and Gospel Injil. 

Quran 2:79 does not say anyone has power to change the written word of Allaah in the Quran or in the Gospel or in the Jewish Bible. 

Quran 6:115 Verse 6:115 The Word of your Lord (Allaah) is fulfilled in truth and justice. No one can change His (Allaah’s) Words. He (Allaah) hears and knows (all things). 

Note 1. The proof Allaah is real is that the Books of Allaah do not change.

 

Quran 10:64 Verse 10:64There is no change in the Words of Allaah …” 

Note 1. The proof Allaah is real is that the Books of Allaah do not change. 

 

Quran 30:30 Verse 30:30 “…. No one can alter what Allaah has created (in religion, in the Torah Taurat, the Gospel Injil and the Koran Quran). That is the right religion (belief), but most people do not know (this).

Note 1. The proof Allaah is real is that the Books of Allaah do not change.

 

1-1. The warning given by Allaah in Torah Deuteronomy 4:2 - 4:3 is confirmed in Quran 2:79.

Warning in the Torah Taurat not to write or say “this is from Allaah” when it is not from Allaah.

Torah Deuteronomy 4:2 You (the children of Israel) shall not add to the word which I (Allaah) command you, neither shall you diminish (take away) from it, so that you may keep the commandments of the LORD your Allaah which I (Allaah) command you.

Torah Deuteronomy 4:3 Your eyes have seen what the LORD (Allaah) did in Baal-peor (in Mount Peor east of the lower Jordan River today in Jordan); for all the men that followed the Baal of Peor (in idol worship), the LORD your Allaah has destroyed them (and removed them) from your presence.

Note 1. This is a warning from Allaah to those who think they can change the word of Allaah.

Note 2. This warning is for those who write or speak in opposition to the word of Allaah in the Torah and then falsely say that their revelation is from Allaah.

 

1-2. The warning given by Allaah in the Gospel of Matthew 5:17 - 5:19 is confirmed in Quran 2:79.

Warning in the Gospel Injil not to write or say “this is from Allaah” when it is not from Allaah.

Gospel of Matthew 5:17 Do not think that I (Prophet Jesus) have come to abolish the law (the Torah) and the prophets (because another comforter shall come after me in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15); I have come not to abolish them (the laws and the prophets) but to fulfill them (to fulfill the laws and the prophecies).

ospel of Matthew 5:18 For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away (just before the Day of Resurrection), not a dot (of one letter), will pass (be cancelled) from the law (of Allaah) until all is accomplished (on the Day of Judgement).

Gospel of Matthew 5:19 Whoever then breaks one of the least of these commandments (of Allaah) and teaches humans (to do) so, shall be called the least (the worst) in the kingdom of heaven (in the hereafter); but the person who does them (commandments) and teaches them (to others) shall be called great (the best) in the kingdom of heaven (in the hereafter).

Note 1. This is a warning from Allaah to those who think they can change the word of Allaah.

Note 2. This warning is for those who write or speak in opposition to the word of Allaah in the Gospel and then falsely say that their revelation is from Allaah.

 

Comment 2. Writing that something is from Allaah but it cannot be found in the Torah Taurat, Gospel Injil or the Koran Quran is a sin against Allaah.

The one with the right to punish a sin that is against Allaah is Allaah only not humans.

Allaah has given humans a lifetime to ask forgiveness and repent.

It is not for humans to judge other humans in a matter that is only for Allaah to judge and for Allaah to punish.

See  Quran 2:78, 2:79 and 22:3 comments. 

 

Quran 2:80 Koran 2:80 Verse 2:80 Ayah 2:80 Ayat 2:80 Aya 2:80 And they (some Jews in Arabia) say, "(In the hereafter) the (Hell) fire shall not touch us except for a limited number of days (and then we will be in Paradise meaning by rejecting the punishment decreed on the earth there will be an easier punishment in the hereafter)." Say, (to them), "Have you received a promise from Allaah? He (Allaah) never breaks His (Allaah’s) promise, or are you saying something about Allaah that you do not know?"(See Quran 4:123 and Quran 3:23-3:24 comments).

 

Quran 2:81 Koran 2:81 Verse 2:81 Ayah 2:81 Ayat 2:81 Aya 2:81 Whoever has done evil and is surrounded by their sins shall live in fire (as their punishment in the Hereafter).

Note 1. Quran 17:60 Verse 17:60 “.... We (Allaah) warn (people to do what is good and avoid what is evil) and make them afraid (of Allaah by describing the home for evil doers in Hell Fire in the Hereafter) but it only increases them (some of the humans) in nothing but greater disobedience against Allaah (and the commandment to do what is good and avoid what is evil). 

 

Quran 2:82 Koran 2:82 Verse 2:82 Ayah 2:82 Ayat 2:82 Aya 2:82 And those who have faith and do good deeds, they shall live in the Garden of Paradise forever (as their reward in the Hereafter).

 

Quran 2:83 Koran 2:83 Verse 2:83 Ayah 2:83 Ayat 2:83 Aya 2:83 And remember We (Allaah) took a covenant (agreement) from the Children of Israel stating that they worship no one but Allaah and that they be kind to their parents, relations, orphans and those in need and talk kindly to people and be consistent  in prayer and charity. Then you (the Jews of Yathrib) turned away (from your agreement by) opposing (the agreement with Allaah) except a few among you (the righteous among the Jews of Yathrib).  

Comment 1. See Quran 2:84 and 2:85

 

Quran 2:84 Koran 2:84 Verse 2:84 Ayah 2:84 Ayat 2:84 Aya 2:84 And remember We (Allaah) took your covenant (agreement) that you shall not kill each other and that you shall not expel your own people out of their homes and you sincerely agreed and witnessed this promise. –

Comment 1. The Torah confirms the Quran.

Torah Leviticus 19:18 (And Allaah spoke to Prophet Moses Musa saying) You shall not take vengeance (revenge, retaliation, punishment), nor bear any grudge (complaint, resentment) against the children of your people, but you shall love your neighbour as (you would love) yourself: I am the LORD (Allaah and this I have commanded).

See Quran 2:85 comments.

 

Quran 2:85 Koran 2:85 Verse 2:85 Ayah 2:85 Ayat 2:85 Aya 2:85 Yet you (the Jews of Yathrib Arabia) kill each other and expel a group among you from their homes, assisting (their enemies) against them (unlawfully) in sin and transgression, and if they came to you as captives you would ransom them (lawfully) whereas their expulsion was unlawful for you to do. Is it that you believe in only part of the Scriptures and you reject the rest? What do you think shall be the reward for those that did that except disgrace in this life? On the Day of Judgment they shall have a serious punishment because Allaah knows everything they do.

Comment 1. Quran 2:84 – 2:85 is about two Jewish and two Arab tribes who lived in the Yathrib area in Arabia at the time of Prophet Muhammad.

The Jewish tribe of Qurayza lead by Ka'b ibn Asad in Yathrib had an alliance with the Arab tribe of Aws lead by Saad ibn Muadh.

The Jewish tribe of Nadir lead by Ka'b ibn al-Ashraf and Huyayy ibn Akhtab in Yathrib and the Jewish tribe of Banu Qaynuqa in Yathrib allied themselves with the Arab tribe of Khazraj lead by Abdallah ibn Ubayy (Abdullah ibn Salul) also in Yathrib).

Comment 2. The time before the arrival of Prophet Muhammad in Yathrib.

Before the arrival of Prophet Muhammad the tribes in the Yathrib area in Arabia (today Medina, Saudi Arabia) attacked each other based on their alliance and expelled one another taking captives and then ransoming them.

Comment 3. When a Jewish tribe was asked, “Why do you fight each other and then pay their ransom?” they replied, “Because Allaah commands us to ransom” and if asked, “Why then do you fight?” they said, “To save our allies from the humiliation of defeat.”

Comment 4. The Quran is a reminder of what is in the Torah.

The Quran is a confirmation of what came before it in the Torah.

In Quran 2:85 Allaah warns the Jews of Yathrib: “Do you believe in the part of the Scriptures (in the Torah Taurat) about ransom and disbelieve in the part about not fighting your own people and not expelling your own people from their homes and not helping one group fight with another group of your people?” The outcome for such people is disgrace in this world and punishment in the hereafter. 

Comment 5. See Quran 2:84.

  

Quran 2:86 Koran 2:86 Verse 2:86 Ayah 2:86 Ayat 2:86 Aya 2:86 These are the people (those among the Jews of Yathrib) who exchange the life of this world (by doing what is forbidden for a short time on the Earth) at the cost of (losing eternal life in Paradise in) the Hereafter and they shall have punishment and no one to help them (in the hereafter).

Comment 1. See Quran 2:84 and 2:85. 

  

Quran 2:87 Koran 2:87 Verse 2:87 Ayah 2:87 Ayat 2:87 Aya 2:87 We (Allaah) gave Prophet Moses Musa the Scriptures and followed him with messenger after messenger. We (Allaah) gave Prophet Jesus Isa the son of Mary Mariam clear signs (of his truthfulness) to show he was a messenger of Allaah and supported him with the Holy Spirit. Is it not true that whenever a messenger (of Allaah) comes to you (the children of Israel, the Jews of Yathrib) that you don’t like, you become filled with your own pride and some messengers you disbelieve and others you kill?

Comment 1. Quran 4:157, Verse 4:157 And they (some of the Jews of Yathrib Arabia) said (showing their disbelief in the messenger Prophet Muhammad and his followers by boasting), "We killed messiah Jesus Isa, son of Mary Mariam, the messenger of Allaah" ….” 

Note 1. Not all the Jews of Yathrib are the same, some are righteous. See Quran 3:113 – 3:115.

 

Quran 2:88 Koran 2:88 Verse 2:88 Ayah 2:88 Ayat 2:88 Aya 2:88 And they (some of the Jews of Yathrib) say (to Prophet Muhammad, mockingly), "Our heart is wrapped” (sealed, covered, meaning, we have our own beliefs and we are closed to any other beliefs) but it is Allaah’s curse (the misfortune from Allaah, the misfortune of having lost Allaah’s guidance) that is on them for their disbelief, so little it is that they believe. –

Note 1. See Quran 2:13 comments.

 

Quran 2:89 Koran 2:89 Verse 2:89 Ayah 2:89 Ayat 2:89 Aya 2:89 And (Allaah’s curse, the misfortune from Allaah, the misfortune of having lost Allaah’s guidance is on them because) when a Book (the Quran) came to them (the Jews of Yathrib) from Allaah confirming what was with them before (in the Torah Taurat) they disbelieved (the Quran). In earlier times they (the children of Israel, the Jews, the Hebrews) prayed for victory against those without faith, but now they (the Jews of Yathrib) themselves disbelieved. The curse of Allaah (the misfortune from Allaah, the misfortune of having lost Allaah’s guidance) is on those without faith.

Note 1. See Quran 2:5 comments.

  

Quran 2:90 Koran 2:90 Verse 2:90 Ayah 2:90 Ayat 2:90 Aya 2:90 How bad is that to have sold (given away for the small price of envy a home in Paradise for) their own souls by disbelieving what Allaah has revealed (in the Koran Quran) out of envy (jealousy) that Allaah should send down His (Allaah’s) favour on whichever of His (Allaah’s) servants He (Allaah) pleases (such as Prophet Moses Musa 3200 years ago and Prophet Jesus Isa 2000 years ago and Prophet Muhammad 1400 years ago). For this reason they (the children of Israel who disbelieved the Torah Taurat revealed to Prophet Moses Musa and then disbelieved the Gospel Injil revealed to Prophet Jesus Isa and then disbelieved the Koran Quran revealed to Prophet Muhammad) have brought to themselves wrath after wrath (anger after anger from Allaah, for the sin of moving in and out of belief in Allaah and His messengers even when all they said was follow the Torah Taurat in Quran 2:40 and believe the advice given to you in Quran 2:41) and for those without faith there is a humiliating punishment (in the hereafter).

Note 1. See Quran 2:89 comments

 

Quran 2:91 Koran 2:91 Verse 2:91 Ayah 2:91 Ayat 2:91 Aya 2:91 When it is said to them (the Jews of Yathrib in Arabia), "Believe in what has been revealed by Allaah”, they (the Jews of Yathrib Arabia) say, "We believe in what was revealed to us" (by Allaah in 2 Kings 17:13 and and 2 Kings 17:37 where every prophet after Moses Musa will confirm that Allaah has commanded the children of Israel to follow the Torah Taurat in every generation forever and that no one can add to the Torah Taurat or subtract from the Torah Taurat in Deuteronomy 4:2 and Deuteronomy 13:1 or Deuteronomy 12:32 in a Christian Bible for 100,000 years which is the thousandth generation if each generation lived for 100 years in Deuteronomy 5:10 meaning forever in Deuteronomy 29:28 or Deuteronomy 29:29 in a Christian Bible and commanding us to observe the Sabbath Day forever in Exodus 31:16-31:17 and is confirmed for the Jewish people mentioned in Isaiah 36:11 and Isaiah 36:13 to whom Allaah has promised the Torah Taurat will never leave them in Isaiah 59:21) yet they reject what is beside it (such as the Gospel Injil and the Quran confirming the promise of Allaah that the Torah Taurat is protected forever by Allaah for the Jewish people in the Gospel of Matthew 5:17-5:20 and are told to follow the teachings of the Torah scholars and the Pharisees meaning the Orthodox Jews meaning they have the Torah Taurat and the Oral law which are not laws but explanations of the laws in the Torah Taurat in Gospel of Matthew 23:1-23:3 because the Torah Taurat is the covenant agreement between Allaah and the Jewish people forever in Quran 2:40-2:41 as proof that Allaah does not change His word and His promises and His covenant agreements as explained in Quran 2:106, Quran 4:82, Quran 7:170, Quran 15:9 and Quran 13:39) even though it is the truth confirming what has already been revealed to them (in the Torah Taurat as confirmed in Quran 2:41 “And believe in what I have revealed” in the Quran ”confirming that which is with you”: in the Torah Taurat and Quran 3:93 “… Bring the Torah Taurat here and recite it as evidence if what you say is true" and in Quran 5:43 “How is it that they” the Jews “come to you” Prophet Muhammad “for judgment when they” the Jews “have the Torah Taurat in which Allaah has already revealed to them judgment …” and Quran 5:68 “… “You” the Jewish people “have nothing until you observe the Torah Taurat …” as explained in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQ3o3ybc-KA  ). Ask (them), "Why did (some of) you kill the prophets of Allaah from before (your time) if you were believers?"

 

Quran 2:92 Koran 2:92 Verse 2:92 Ayah 2:92 Ayat 2:92 Aya 2:92 Prophet Moses Musa showed you (the children of Israel) clear evidence of the truth (that he was a messenger of Allaah), then you (the children of Israel) worshipped a calf (idol as your god) when he (Prophet Moses Musa) was away (receiving the commandments of Allaah on top of Mount Sinai Horeb) and you did great wrong (during his absence).

Note 1. See Quran 2:51 comments.

 

Quran 2:93 Koran 2:93 Verse 2:93 Ayah 2:93 Ayat 2:93 Aya 2:93 And remember when We (Allaah) took your covenant (the agreement between the Children of Israel and Allaah) and We (Allaah) were on the Mountain (Mount Sinai) above you (saying), "Hold firm to what We (Allaah) have given you (in the Torah Taurat), and remember it so you may become righteous.” They said, "We heard but we disobeyed." Their hearts were made to worship the calf (idol) because they had no faith (in Allaah). Say (to the Jews of Yathrib Arabia), “Bad things are what your faith brings to you, if you are really believers (in Allaah)."

Comment 1. The covenant between the Children of Israel and Allaah.

See Quran 2:40-2:41 and Quran 2:63.

 

Quran 2:94 Koran 2:94 Verse 2:94 Ayah 2:94 Ayat 2:94 Aya 2:94 Say (to the Jews of Yathrib Arabia), "If you are truthful that life in the Hereafter with Allaah is specially for you and not for anyone else (as you say), then do you look forward to death?"

 

Quran 2:95 Koran 2:95 Verse 2:95 Ayah 2:95 Ayat 2:95 Aya 2:95 But they (some of the Jews of Yathrib) shall never look forward it (death), because of what their hands have done (in sin which the soul shall present for judgement by Allaah in the hereafter). Allaah is aware of (who are) the evil-doers and (who are) the disbelievers (in Him).

 

Quran 2:96 Koran 2:96 Verse 2:96 Ayah 2:96 Ayat 2:96 Aya 2:96 And you shall most certainly find them (the Jews of Yathrib Arabia) the greediest of people for life (doing what they want instead of what Allaah commanded them to do), they are even more greedier than the idol worshipper’s love of life. Each one of them (the Jews of Yathrib) wishes they could be granted life for a thousand years (instead of wishing to obey Allaah), but such a long life (of a thousand years) would not save them even a little bit from the punishment that is due in the hereafter because Allaah sees all that they do.

Comment 1. In every generation there are both the wicked and the righteous among the children of Israel.

Not all the Jews of Yathrib are the same, some are righteous, see Quran 3:113 – 3:115. 

  

Quran 2:97 Koran 2:97 Verse 2:97 Ayah 2:97 Ayat 2:97 Aya 2:97 Say (Prophet Muhammad, to the people), who is against (Angel) Gabriel Jibril because it is he (Angel Gabriel Jibril) who has revealed this (Scripture, the Quran) to your heart (Prophet Muhammad) by the permission of Allaah confirming what was revealed before it (in the Gospel Injil and in the Torah Taurat), and as a guidance and good news for those who believe.

 

Quran 2:98 Koran 2:98 Verse 2:98 Ayah 2:98 Ayat 2:98 Aya 2:98 Whoever is against Allaah and His (Allaah’s) angels and messengers and (Angel) Gabriel and (Angel) Michael should know that Allaah is against them.

 

Quran 2:99 Koran 2:99 Verse 2:99 Ayah 2:99 Ayat 2:99 Aya 2:99 We (Allaah) have sent to you clear revelations that none shall reject except those who have no faith in (Allaah and no faith in) good guidance.

 

Quran 2:100 Koran 2:100 Verse 2:100 Ayah 2:100 Ayat 2:100 Aya 2:100 Is it not true that every time they (the Jews of Yathrib) made an agreement a group among them would break it (the agreement)? Most of them do not believe (in Allaah because they do no respect their agreements).

Comment 1. Why did different Jewish tribes in Yathrib break peace agreements with the Muslims?

The long time friendship and business relationship between the Jewish tribes in Yathrib Arabia and the stone idol worshippers of Mecca Arabia caused the Jews of Yathrib to forget Allaah in times of conflict and support their long friendship with the stone idol worshippers against the new Muslim believers of Allaah.

 

Quran 2:101 Koran 2:101 Verse 2:101 Ayah 2:101 Ayat 2:101 Aya 2:101 And when a messenger (Prophet Muhammad with revelations) from Allaah came to them (the Jews of Yathrib Arabia), confirming what was with them (in the Tanakh Jewish scripture), some of the people of the Scripture (some of the Jews of Yathrib) who were given the Scripture threw away the Book of Allaah behind their backs (ignored the Quran), as if they did not know what it was.

Comment 1. Quran 2:101 does not say some Jews in Yathrib Arabia changed the written Torah but says some Jews in Yathrib Arabia when they heard the Quran they acted like they did not know what the Quran was.

Comment 2. The promise of Allaah to the Jewish people.

Jews like Quran 3:113-3:115 and Christians like Quran 5:82-5:85 who follow their Book in Quran 5:68 and also believe the Quran will receive a double reward in the hereafter in Quran 28:54, Quran 34:37 and Quran 57:28 meaning the reward for every good deed they do will be doubled because they believed the Quran which tells the Jewish people to follow the Torah Taurat which is their eternal covenant between Allaah and the Hebrew people forever and tells the Christian people to follow the Gospel Injil which is explained in the Quran and tells the Muslim people to follow the Quran is confirmed in Quran 2:40, Quran 2:41, Quran 2:62, Quran 2:106, Quran 3:93, Quran 4:123, Quran 5:43, Quran 5:47, Quran 5:48, Quran 5:69 and Quran 13:39.

Comment 3. The Books of Allaah.

Stories claiming the Torah Taurat is corrupted contradict all the teachings in the Quran telling us that the Jewish people have the Torah and telling us that the Torah is from Allaah and telling us that no one can change the word of Allaah because that is the proof that Allaah is real for every human until the Day of Judgement. 

 

The Jewish people judge scripture as true if it confirms the Torah Taurat.

Many Muslims say the Quran does not agree with the Torah Taurat and therefore to a Jew it means the Quran cannot be from Allaah.

 

If Muslims said the Quran confirms the Torah Taurat it would mean the Quran is from Allaah but this is not what many Muslims are telling the Jewish people today.

 

1400 years ago Prophet Muhammad said the Quran confirms the Torah Taurat meaning confirms the Torah Taurat is correct as proof the Quran is from Allaah but this is not the message many Muslims say to Jewish people today.

 

Rabbi Tovia Singer has studied the Torah Taurat and Gospel Injil and Quran and explains that the Jews have the scripture and therefore whenever anyone claims they also have the scripture the Jewish person compares their scripture to all other scriptures and if another scripture agrees with the Jewish scripture the Jew will applaud it in other words Jews are not asking if someone is or is not a prophet but a Jew asks do scriptures like the Gospel and the Quran which both say they confirm the Torah Taurat agree or disagree with the Jewish scripture.

 

When a Jew reads in the Quran that Allaah is only one the Jew applauds it meaning it agrees with the Torah.

When a Jew reads some Christian opinions that Allaah is a Trinity the Jew does not applaud it meaning it disagrees with the Torah Taurat.

See 1. Quran 28:52 comments in Quran chapter 28.

See 2. Quran 28:53 comments in Quran chapter 28.

See 3. Quran 28:54 comments in Quran chapter 28.

See 4. Quran 4:162 comments in Quran chapter 4.

 

Quran 2:102 Koran 2:102 Verse 2:102 Ayah 2:102 Ayat 2:102 Aya 2:102 And they (some of the Jews of Yathrib in Arabia today in Medina Saudi Arabia) believe what the evil ones said about the special powers of Prophet Solomon Suleiman during the time of his kingdom (they said Solomon's power was magic from evil ones as is written in Jewish rabbinic literature). (The truth is) Prophet Solomon Suleiman had faith (and all his powers were from Allaah). It was the evil ones who were disbelievers who taught magic that had been revealed to Angel Harut and Angel Marut in Babylon. These Angels (when they taught the first humans this knowledge) first said “We are a test for your faith, do not disbelieve in Allaah (by learning magic from us) and to those who disbelieved they taught the magic that caused dispute between husband and wife and caused harm only with Allaah’s permission. They (the disbelievers) learned what harmed them (by learning what was evil) and not what profited them (by having faith in Allaah and doing what was good) and they knew (because they were warned) that buyers of it (magic) would have no happiness in the Hereafter. If they only knew how terrible the price was (for learning the magic of doing evil) for which they sold their souls (for a place in fire in the hereafter). 

Comment 1. In Quran 2:102 Allaah corrected a faulty story in Jewish rabbinic literature which was well known to the Jews of Yathrib in Arabia.

Comment 2. See more about why Allaah put Rabbinic Jewish literature in the Quran in Quran 34:12 – 34:14 comments. 

 

Quran 2:103 Koran 2:103 Verse 2:103 Ayah 2:103 Ayat 2:103 Aya 2:103 If they had kept their faith and stayed away from evil they would have found that the reward from Allaah is far better (than anything else), if they only knew.

 

Quran 2:104 Koran 2:104 Verse 2:104 Ayah 2:104 Ayat 2:104 Aya 2:104 You who believe, do not say (to Prophet Muhammad) “Raina” (meaning, “Hear us” which is also used with a twist in language to change its meaning so as to mock faith in Allaah), but say, “Unzurna” (meaning, “Make us understand”) and then listen. To those without faith (in Allaah) there is a painful punishment (in the hereafter). 

Comment 1.  Quran 2:104 is further explained in Quran 4.46.

Quran 4.46 Verse 4.46 Among those who are Jews (the Jews of Yathrib) there are some who twist words so they have a different meaning and (they) say, "We hear your word (Prophet Muhammad) and disobey," and "Hear and let you (Prophet Muhammad) hear nothing." And (they say the word) “Raina” (and) with a twist of their tongues they mock faith in Allaah. And if only they had said, "We hear and obey" and "Do make us understand," then it would have been better for them and more proper, but Allaah has cursed them (with the misfortune of having lost Allaah’s guidance) for their disbelief, so they believe not (in Allaah) except a few (of them who do believe in Allaah).

Comment 2. The punishment for mocking Allaah.

It is not for humans to punish other humans for mocking religion because when people mock religion the one who gives punishment is not humans but Allaah.

Comment 3. Forgive your enemy (Quran 41:34 – 41:36 and Quran 42:43. Allaah will forgive even those who mocked Prophet Muhammad and those who plotted to kill Prophet Muhammad if they repent and ask Allaah for forgiveness in Quran 8:30 – 8:33)

See Quran 2:13 comment.

 

Quran 2:105 Koran 2:105 Verse 2:105 Ayah 2:105 Ayat 2:105 Aya 2:105 It is not the wish of those who disbelieve from among the People of the Scripture (the Jews and Christians in Arabia if they do not understand Quran 2:106, Quran 3:3, Quran 3:93, Quran 4:82, Quran 5:43, Quran 5:68, Quran 7:170, Quran 13:39 and Quran 15:9) or the (Arab stone) idol worshippers (in Arabia) that anything good should come down to you (Prophet Muhammad) from your Lord (Allaah, because of their doubt or envy or jealousy of you). But Allaah chooses for His (Allaah’s) mercy whom He (Allaah) pleases and Allaah is the Lord of great bounty (favours and rewards).

 

Quran 2:106 Koran 2:106 Verse 2:106 Ayah 2:106 Ayat 2:106 Aya 2:106 (Allaah says in 1 Samuel 15:29 Allaah does not change His mind promises covenants agreements because only humans change their mind promises covenants agreements so the Jews asked Prophet Muhammad about the Torah and the Quran. Allaah reveals) We (Allaah) do not abolish a verse (in the Torah for the Jewish people) or let it be forgotten (by the Jewish people until the Day of Judgement as Allaah promised in Quran 2:40 - 2:41, Quran 2:62, Quran 3:113 - 3:115, Quran 5:69, Exodus 2:24, Leviticus 26:4 - 26:45, Deuteronomy 4:2, Deuteronomy 4:31, Deuteronomy 5:10, Deuteronomy 7:7 - 7:8, Deuteronomy 12:1, Deuteronomy 29:28 in Jewish Tanakh or Deuteronomy 29:29 in a Christian Bible, 2 King 13:23, Psalm 19:8 - 19:12 in Jewish Tanakh or Psalm 19:7 - 19:11 in Christian Old Testament Bible, Psalm 111:7 - 111:9, Hosea 3:4 - 3:5, Daniel 12:2, Isaiah 59:21 is the promise to the Jewish people mentioned in Isaiah 36:11 and Isaiah 36:13 and Gospel of Matthew 5:17 - 5:20). We (Allaah) bring (to the Muslims in the Quran) something better than it or similar to it (confirming the Torah which is in the hands of the Jewish people until the Day of Judgement in Quran 2:40 - 2:41 and explaining the story of Jesus which is in the four reports that are in the hands of the Christian people until the Day of Judgement in Quran 5:46 - 5:47 and Allaah told the Jewish people to observe the Torah Taurat and told the Christians to observe the Gospel Injil in Quran 5:68. Allaah reminded the Jewish people in the Quran to observe the Sabbath and confirmed Prophet Ezra is a human servant of Allaah like every human is a willing or unwilling servant of Allaah. Allaah reminded the Christian people in the Quran that Prophet Jesus is a human servant of Allaah like every human is a willing or unwilling servant of Allaah). Do you not know that Allaah is capable of everything? (including protecting the Jewish Scriptures that are with the Jewish people until the Day of Judgement as shown in the story of the vision dream of the sacrifice of the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim in Quran chapter 37 where Allaah only blesses Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and his son Prophet Isaac Ishaq and leaves no other blessings in the story of the sacrifice and this famous vision dream is remembered in the next chapter Quran chapter 38 where Allaah blesses Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and Prophet Isaac Ishaq with the vision dream in Quran 38:45 – 38:47 and shows in the next verse that Prophet Ishmael Ismail was not the son in the vision dream and Prophet Ishmael Ismail was not living with his father during the vision dream by blessing Prophet Ishmael Ismail without his father and without the blessing of the vision dream in Quran 38:48. This is confirmed in Quran 12:6 and in Torah Genesis 22:2 “And Allaah said: Take now your son, your only son” who still lives with you, reminding him that Allaah had earlier taken Ishmael Ismail and Hagar Hajar away from him into Allaah’s care in the desert, “whom you love” Allaah makes the test very hard by demanding his second son and reminding him that this is his only remaining son and reminding him that he already gave Allaah one son and reminding him of his love for these sons, “even” namely, that is “Isaac Ishaq and go into the land of Moriah” today in the Temple and Al-Aqsa mosque area in Jerusalem Al-Quds in Israel and Palestine; “and offer him there for a burnt-offering on one of the mountains which I Allaah will tell you of.” The proof Allaah is real is the Quran confirming the Torah Taurat is correct in Quran 2:41 “And believe in what I Allaah have revealed” in the Quran “that confirms what you already have” in the Torah Taurat and in Quran 3:93 “… Bring the Torah Taurat here and recite it as evidence if what you say is true" and in Quran 5:43 “How is it that they come to you for judgment when they have the Torah Taurat in which Allaah has already revealed to them judgment …” and Quran 5:68 “… You the Jewish people have nothing until you observe the Torah Taurat …” as explained in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQ3o3ybc-KA so hold tightly to what Allaah is teaching in the Quran and beware of stories which contradict the Books of Allaah. Allaah explains the story of Jesus which is in the hands of the Christian people by explaining in the Quran what the human eye could not see without adding anything to the story in the Gospel of what the human eye saw in the story of Prophet Jesus Isa in Quran 3:144 see Quran 5:75, Quran 4:157, Quran 4:158 see Quran 39:42, Quran 5:75 see Quran 3:144, Quran 5:117 see Quran 7:6, Quran 7:6 see Quran 5:117, Quran 21:95 see Quran 23:99 – 23:100, Quran 33:40 see Gospel of Jesus Isa by Mark 13:5 – 13:6, 13:21 – 13:22 and Quran 39:42 see Quran 4:158. In Quran 3:144 and Quran 5:75 see “passed away” in the Quran always means died see in Quran 2:134 and Quran 2:141 and Quran 7:38 and Quran 13:30 and Quran 41:25 and Quran 46:17. The Quran gives humans freedom to find their religion).

Note 1. In Quran 2:106 Allaah says the Quran is similar to what is with the Jewish people or better and this is explained in Quran 13:39 where Allaah does not include in the Quran some laws that are binding only on the Jewish people.

See Quran 2:40 comments.


Comment 1. Quran 2:106 in Arabic.

2:106  مَا نَنسَخۡ مِنۡ ءَایَةٍ أَوۡ نُنسِهَا نَأۡتِ بِخَیۡرࣲ مِّنۡهَاۤ أَوۡ مِثۡلِهَاۤۗ أَلَمۡ تَعۡلَمۡ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَیۡءࣲ قَدِیرٌ

Comment 2. In the Hereafter the Jewish people will be judged concerning their observance of the Sabbath Day in Quran 16:124 which is an everlasting covenant agreement between Allaah and the Jewish people in Quran 2:40-2:41.

Quran 16:124 is confirmed in Quran 2:106 where Allaah has not abolished anything in the Torah for the Jewish people meaning the Jewish people must follow the Torah as the Torah has commanded it must be followed forever.

Quran 16:124 is confirmed in Quran 13:39 where Allaah eliminates from the Quran the laws which are only binding on the Jewish people such as the Sabbath Day.

 

Quran 16:124 Verse 16:124 Ayah 16:124 The Sabbath (Day) was only decreed for those (children of Israel , the Hebrew people, the Jewish people) who differed in (observing) it (in Quran 2:65-2:66, Quran 5:60, Quran 7:163-7:166 meaning the Sabbath Day was decreed for the Jewish people of whom some obeyed and some did not obey). Your Lord (Allaah) shall judge between them (the Jewish people) on the Day of Resurrection in what they used to differ in (observing the Sabbath Day which the Jewish people are commanded in the Ten Commandments of Allaah in Deuteronomy 5:12, to observe the Sabbath Day forever in Exodus 31:13, by observing the Sabbath Day in every generation in Exodus 31:16, to observe the Sabbath Day as a sign forever between Allaah and the children of Israel in Exodus 31:17 in the Torah covenant in Deuteronomy 31:9, Deuteronomy 4:13, Deuteronomy 28:69, Deuteronomy 4:31, Deuteronomy 7:9-7:12 commanding that no one shall add or subtract from the Torah in Deuteronomy 4:2 and Deuteronomy 13:1 in Jewish Tanakh or Deuteronomy 12:32 in a Christian Bible and forever in Deuteronomy 5:10, Deuteronomy 29:28 in Jewish Tanakh or Deuteronomy 29:29 in a Christian Bible, Psalm 111:9, Isaiah 59:21 is the promise to the Jewish people who are mentioned in Isaiah 36:11, Isaiah 36:13, Gospel of Matthew 5:17-5:20 and Quran 2:40-2:41).

 

Note 1. Jews who observe the Sabbath Day are submitting to Allaah.

Note 2. Jews who follow the Torah Taurat are following the message delivered to them by Prophet Muhammad and every prophet after Prophet Moses Musa reminding the Jewish people to follow the Torah Taurat forever because it is the covenant agreement between Allaah and the Jewish people.

Note 3. The Jewish people will be judged concerning their observance of the Sabbath Day which is an everlasting covenant agreement between Allaah and the Jewish people in Quran 2:40-2:41.

Note 4. Quran 16:124 is confirmed in Quran 2:106 where Allaah has not abolished anything in the Torah for the Jewish people meaning the Jewish people must follow the Torah as the Torah has commanded it must be followed forever.

Note 5. Quran 16:124 is confirmed in Quran 13:39 where Allaah eliminates from the Quran the laws which are only binding on the Jewish people such as the Sabbath Day.

 

Comment 3. In Judaism the Sabbath Day is decreed forever in the Torah Taurat.

The Sabbath Day in the Torah Taurat is decreed forever for the children of Israel and confirmed in Isaiah 59:21 which is the promise to the Jewish people who are mentioned in Isaiah 36:11 and Isaiah 36:13. 

The Jews observe the Sabbath on Saturday (Friday sunset to Saturday sunset) 

Jewish people are commanded to observe the Sabbath Day in the Ten Commandments of Allaah in Deuteronomy 5:12.

Jewish people are commanded to observe the Sabbath Day forever in Exodus 31:13.

Jewish people are commanded to observe the Sabbath Day in every generation in Exodus 31:16.

Jewish people are commanded to observe the Sabbath Day as a sign forever between Allaah and the children of Israel in Exodus 31:17.

 

Isaiah 59:21 And as for Me (Allaah), this is My covenant with them (the Jewish people who are mentioned in Isaiah 36:11 and Isaiah 36:13), said the LORD; My spirit that is on you (the Jewish people), and My words (the Torah) which I (Allaah) have put in your mouth, shall not depart out of your mouth, nor out of the mouth of your seed (off-spring), nor out of the mouth of your seed's seed (descendants), said the LORD, from now and forever. 

Note 1. The promise of Allaah that the Torah is protected forever.  

 

Isaiah 36:11 Then Eliakim and Shebna and Joah said to Rabshakeh: 'Please speak to your servants in the Aramaic language, for we understand it; and do not speak to us in the Jews' language, (in case it is heard) in the ears of the people that are on the wall (surrounding Jerusalem). 

Note 1. The word Jew is used by Prophet Isaiah meaning the promise of Allaah in Isaiah 59:21 that the Torah Taurat is protected forever is to the Jewish people.

Note 2. See the future of the Jewish people explained in Isaiah 53.

https://sites.google.com/site/islamandthequran/isaiah-53-explained

 

Isaiah 36:12 But Rabshakeh (the officer representing Sennacherib the King of Assyria) said: 'Has my master (the King of Assyria) sent me to your master (the King of Judah), and to you (the representatives of the King of Judah), to speak these words? Has he (the King of Assyria) not sent me to (speak to) the (Hebrew) men that sit on the wall (surrounding Jerusalem, and speak these words in Hebrew to them warning that our Army will blockade Jerusalem and that they will have) to eat their own dung and to drink their own urine with you (if you do not give Jerusalem to us)?' 

 

Isaiah 36:13 Then Rabshakeh (the officer representing the King of Assyria) stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language (of Hebrew to the men on the wall surrounding Jerusalem), and said: “Hear the words of the great king, the king of Assyria.

Note 1. The word Jew is used by Prophet Isaiah meaning the promise of Allaah in Isaiah 59:21 that the Torah Taurat is protected forever is to the Jewish people.

Note 2. The past and present and future of the Jewish people explained in Isaiah 53.

https://sites.google.com/site/islamandthequran/isaiah-53-explained

 

Deuteronomy 5:12 (The Fourth of the Ten Commandments from Allaah) Observe the Sabbath day, to keep it holy, as the Lord your Allaah commanded you.

Note 1. The Sabbath is a covenant agreement between the children of Israel and Allaah forever in every generation. 

 

Exodus 31:13 (Moses) speak to the children of Israel, saying: You shall keep My (Allaah’s) Sabbaths, for it is a sign between Me (Allaah) and you throughout your generations, so that you may know that I am the LORD who sanctify you (by showing you holy behaviour). 

 

Exodus 31:16 So the children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath and observe the Sabbath throughout their generations, as a perpetual (never ending) covenant (agreement with Allaah). 

 

Exodus 31:17 It (the Sabbath) is a sign between Me (Allaah) and the children of Israel forever; for in six days the LORD (Allaah) made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day He (Allaah) ceased from work and rested (rested means completed the creation and this is why the Sabbath is a day of rest and remembrance of Allaah on every seventh day).' 

 

Comment 4. The Torah Taurat commandments. 

In Quran 2:40-2:41 Allaah tells the Jewish people to follow what is with them in the Torah Taurat because it is their covenant with Allaah where Allaah commanded them not to add or subtract from what Allaah commanded in the Torah Taurat meaning Allaah will never change any of the commandments in the Torah Taurat because Allaah does not change His word and His promises and His covenant agreements as proof He is Allaah meaning only humans change their word and their promises and their covenant agreements.

 

Allaah forbids anyone adding or subtracting from the laws in the Torah Taurat in Deuteronomy 4:2 and Deuteronomy 13:1 in Jewish Tanakh or Deuteronomy 12:32 in a Christian Bible.

All true prophets reminded the Jews to follow only the Torah Taurat laws.

After Moses Musa there was not one prophet who added or removed one law in the Torah Taurat.

Anyone like Paul who added and subtracted from the Torah Taurat is a false prophet.

Anyone like Jesus and Muhammad who reminded the Jewish people to only follow the Torah Taurat are true prophets because they are doing what every true prophet after Moses did reminding the Jewish people that they made a covenant to follow the Torah Taurat laws forever in each generation and not to add or subtract from it.

 

Deuteronomy 5:12 (The Fourth of the Ten Commandments from Allaah) Observe the Sabbath day, to keep it holy, as the Lord your Allaah commanded you.

Note 1. The Sabbath is a covenant agreement between the children of Israel and Allaah forever in every generation. 

Quran 3:93 Verse 3:93 “… Say (Prophet Muhammad, to the Jews of Yathrib), "Bring the Torah Taurat here and recite it (to me as evidence) if what you say is true." 

Note 2. Quran 4:136 Verse 4:136 “... and whoever has no faith inHis (Allaah’s) Books, … then he has strayed far away (from Allaah).

 

Exodus 31:13 (Moses) speak to the children of Israel, saying: You shall keep My (Allaah’s) Sabbaths, for it is a sign between Me (Allaah) and you throughout your generations, so that you may know that I am the LORD who sanctify you (by showing you holy behaviour). 

Note 1. The Sabbath is a covenant agreement between the children of Israel and Allaah forever in every generation. 

Quran 3:93 Verse 3:93 “… Say (Prophet Muhammad, to the Jews of Yathrib), "Bring the Torah Taurat here and recite it (to me as evidence) if what you say is true."

Note 2. Quran 4:136 Verse 4:136 “... and whoever has no faith inHis (Allaah’s) Books, … then he has strayed far away (from Allaah).

 

Exodus 31:16 So the children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath and observe the Sabbath throughout their generations, as a perpetual (never ending) covenant (agreement with Allaah). 

Note 1. The Sabbath is a covenant agreement between the children of Israel and Allaah forever in every generation. Quran 3:93 Verse 3:93 “… Say (Prophet Muhammad, to the Jews of Yathrib), "Bring the Torah Taurat here and recite it (to me as evidence) if what you say is true."

Note 2. Quran 4:136 Verse 4:136 “... and whoever has no faith inHis (Allaah’s) Books, … then he has strayed far away (from Allaah).

 

Exodus 31:17 It (the Sabbath) is a sign between Me (Allaah) and the children of Israel forever; for in six days the LORD (Allaah) made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day He (Allaah) ceased from work and rested (rested means completed the creation and this is why the Sabbath is a day of rest and remembrance of Allaah on every seventh day).' 

Note 1. The Sabbath is a covenant agreement between the children of Israel and Allaah forever in every generation. Quran 3:93 Verse 3:93 “… Say (Prophet Muhammad, to the Jews of Yathrib), "Bring the Torah Taurat here and recite it (to me as evidence) if what you say is true."

Note 2. Quran 4:136 Verse 4:136 “... and whoever has no faith inHis (Allaah’s) Books, … then he has strayed far away (from Allaah).

 

Comment 5. Allaah is never tired so what does Allaah rested on the seventh day mean? 

The Tanakh Jewish Scripture and the Quran explain that resting on the seventh day means completed the creation. 

Allaah commanded the Hebrew people to stop creating on the seventh day of each week as a sign between Allaah and the children of Israel forever meaning as a sign of remembrance of the existence of Allaah in every generation of the Jewish people until the Day of Judgement. 

 

Genesis 2:2 And on the seventh day Allaah finished His work which He had made; and He rested (meaning completed His work and stopped creating) on the seventh day from all His work which He had made. 

 

Genesis 2:3 And Allaah blessed the seventh day, and made it holy; because in it He rested (meaning completed His work and stopped creating) from all His work which Allaah in creating had made. 

Note 1. “Allaah rested” means Allaah completed the creation and stopped creating. 

Note 2. In the same way as Allaah created daily work for humans so also on the seventh day Allaah created the Sabbath day meaning a day of rest from work when humans stop creating. 

 

Quran 2:255 Verse 2:255 “… He (Allaah) is never sleepy and He (Allaah) does not sleep” …. “He (Allaah) never feels tired …”

 

Quran 10:3 Verse 10:3 Your Lord is Allaah who created the Heavens and the Earth in six Days, then He (Allaah) established Himself on the Throne (of authority over His creation), directing all things ..."

 

Comment 6. Hadith story claiming "the Jews were told to glorify THE FRIDAY as the holy day." 

Any hadith story which contradicts the Quran is a false hadith story.

Allaah commanded the Jews to observe the Sabbath Day forever which Jews have observed for 3200 years since the days of Moses.

In Islam there is no Sabbath Day but only a Friday congregational prayer after midday.

The Quran tells the Jews to follow the Sabbath Day which they are commanded by Allaah to follow forever in the Torah Taurat meaning the hadith claiming Allaah changed His commandment which was “forever” and gave the Jews a new commandment cancelling the Sabbath Day or moving the Sabbath Day is a false hadith story.

Comment 7. Jews and Christians who follow their Book and believe the Quran will be rewarded twice in the hereafter.

Jews and Christians who follow their Book in Quran 5:68 and also believe the Quran will receive a double reward in the hereafter in Quran 28:54, Quran 34:37 and Quran 57:28 meaning the reward for every good deed they do will be doubled because they believed the Quran which tells the Jewish people to follow the Torah Taurat which is their eternal covenant between Allaah and the Hebrew people forever and tells the Christian people to follow the Gospel Injil which is explained in the Quran and tells the Muslim people to follow the Quran in Quran 2:40, Quran 2:41, Quran 2:62, Quran 2:106, Quran 3:93, Quran 4:123, Quran 5:43, Quran 5:47, Quran 5:48, Quran 5:69 and Quran 13:39

 

Comment 8. Allaah explains why there is more than one community submitting to Allaah.

Quran 5:48 Verse 5:48 “… We (Allaah) have appointed a divine law and a way (of religion). If Allaah willed He (Allaah) could have made you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) one community. But He (Allaah) tests you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) by what He (Allaah) has given you (in the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil and the Koran Quran to show who is best in behaviour). So strive for all that is good. To Allaah you shall all return and He (Allaah) shall then inform you (in the Hereafter) about (the correctness of) the religious matters in which you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) argue among each other.

 

Quran 2:107 Koran 2:107 Verse 2:107 Ayah 2:107 Ayat 2:107 Aya 2:107 Do you not know that to Allaah belong the heavens and the earth and besides Him (Allaah) you have no (other) protector or (other) helper?

Note 1. Unless Allaah wills in the hereafter for an angel of Allaah or a messenger of Allaah or others to speak but they shall only say what Allaah has permitted them to say.

 

Quran 2:108 Koran 2:108 Verse 2:108 Ayah 2:108 Ayat 2:108 Aya 2:108 Or would you question your messenger (Prophet Muhammad) in the same way that Prophet Moses Musa was questioned (by his people who had little faith) in the past? The person who changes from faith to disbelieve has moved away from the right path.

Comment 1. How was Prophet Moses Musa questioned by his people?

What did the people of Prophet Moses Musa say after the Pharaoh Firon and his army drowned in the Red Sea?

Torah Exodus 15:22 And Prophet Moses Musa led (the children of) Israel onward from the Red Sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur (in the Sinai Peninsula today in Egypt); and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water.

Exodus 15:23 And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter. Therefore the name of it was called Marah (meaning bitter).

Exodus 15:24 And the people murmured (whispered) against Prophet Moses Musa, saying: 'What shall we drink?'

Jewish Bible Torah Exodus 15:25 And he (Prophet Moses Musa) cried to the LORD (Allaah); and the LORD showed him a tree, and he throw it (the tree) into the waters, and the waters were made sweet (and good to drink).

 

Exodus 16:1 And they took their journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the children of Israel came to the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departing out of the land of Egypt.

Exodus 16:2 And the whole congregation of the children of Israel murmured (whispered) against Prophet Moses Musa and against Prophet Aaron Harun in the wilderness;

Exodus 16:3 and the children of Israel said to them: “It would have been better if we had died by the hand of the LORD (Allaah) in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the flesh-pots (of food) and we ate all the bread we wanted; because you have brought us out (of Egypt) into this wilderness, to kill this whole community with hunger.”

Exodus 16:4 Then the LORD (Allaah) said to Prophet Moses Musa: “Look, I (Allaah) will cause bread to rain (down) from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a day's portion every day so that I (Allaah) may trial them, whether they will walk in My (Allaah’s) law, or not.

 

Quran 2:109 Koran 2:109 Verse 2:109 Ayah 2:109 Ayat 2:109 Aya 2:109 Many of the People of the Scripture (the Jews and the Christians) wish they could turn you (Muslim people) back to disbelief (in Allaah) after you became believers (in Allaah) because of envy from themselves (envy from their own souls, even) after the truth (that your Allaah is the same as their Allaah) became clear to them. But forgive them and pardon them and follow Allaah’s commands. Allaah has power over all things.

 

Quran 2:110 Koran 2:110 Verse 2:110 Ayah 2:110 Ayat 2:110 Aya 2:110 Be steadfast in prayer and regular in charity and whatever good you do shall be taken with your souls (to the hereafter) and Allaah shall see the good you did. Allaah sees everything you do.

 

Quran 2:111 Koran 2:111 Verse 2:111 Ayah 2:111 Ayat 2:111 Aya 2:111 And they (some Jews and some Christians) say, "None shall enter Paradise unless he is a Jew or a Christian." This (belief) is only from their desires. Say (to them), "Show your proof if you are truthful."  

Comment 1. Who enters Paradise?

Prophet Muhammad corrected the understanding of some Jews who said only Jews can enter Paradise and some Christians who said only Christians can enter Paradise.

 

Quran 2:112 Koran 2:112 Verse 2:112 Ayah 2:112 Ayat 2:112 Aya 2:112 It is certain that whoever submits to Allaah and does good (deeds), they shall get their reward from their Lord (Allaah) and they shall have no fear or grief (in the hereafter).

Comment 1. Who enters Paradise?

Quran 6:158 Verse 6:158 "... belief in it (Allaah and the Day of Resurrection and Judgement) shall not help any soul …. if in belief (he or she) did not earn good (by doing righteous deeds in their life). ....” 

Quran 41:8 Verse 41:8 “For those who believe and do good deeds, for them is an everlasting reward (in Paradise Jannah).”

See Quran 2:111 comments.

 

Quran 2:113 Koran 2:113 Verse 2:113 Ayah 2:113 Ayat 2:113 Aya 2:113 The Jews say, "The Christians have nothing (the Christian religion is wrong) and the Christians say, "The Jews have nothing (the Jewish religion is wrong) even though they both recite the Scriptures (sent to them by Allaah who revealed the same message in the Torah Taurat to the Jews and in the Gospel Injil to the Christians). Those (stone idol worshippers in Mecca Arabia today Makkah Saudi Arabia who do not know (the Scriptures) say the same thing (that only their religion of stone idol worship is correct). Allaah shall judge between them (the Jews and Christians and the stone idol worshippers) on their arguments on the Day of Judgment.

 

Quran 2:114 Koran 2:114 Verse 2:114 Ayah 2:114 Ayat 2:114 Aya 2:114 And who is more unjust than those who prevent His name (the name of Allaah) to be mentioned in the mosque and strives for their destruction? (“The mosque” is masajida. In Quran 17:1 the Jewish Temple in Zion meaning in the Temple Mountain called “the farthest mosque” is l-masjidi l-aqsa, Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa which 1400 years ago contained the ruins of the first Jewish Temple and the ruins of second Jewish Temple in Jerusalem Al-Quds Palestine today in Israel and Palestine and in Quran 17:7 the Jewish Temple is called “Mosque” meaning place of worship, so “the mosque” means any house for worshipping Allaah including the houses of the Muslims and Christians and Jews who all mention the name of Allaah meaning Allaah has ordered the protection of the Mosque and the Church and the Synagogue where the name of Allaah is mentioned see Quran 22:40). It is not for them (who prevent the name of Allaah to be mentioned in a place of worship and who strive for their destruction) to enter them (places of worship) except (if they enter like) those in fear (of Allaah with the intention of worshipping Allaah). For them (who prevent the name of Allaah to be mentioned in a place of worship and who strive for their destruction) is disgrace in the world and for them in the Hereafter is a great punishment (see Quran 4:93 and Quran 5:32).

 

Quran 2:115 Koran 2:115 Verse 2:115 Ayah 2:115 Ayat 2:115 Aya 2:115 To Allaah belong the east and the west, so wherever you turn there is the face (presence) of Allaah. Indeed Allaah is All-Encompassing, All-Knowing. (Allaah gives each religion a direction to face during prayer see Quran 2:142 – Quran 2:150. Allaah moved people in Arabia away from stone idol worship at the Kabah and taught them the religion of Allaah by giving the first Muslims a direction of prayer towards Zion for the first 13 years of Islam in Makkah and the first 17 months of Islam in Yathrib Madinah. The Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 84:6 – 84:8 explains that the reason the first Muslims faced towards Zion was to teach them that “Happy is the man whose strength of belief is in You Allaah; in whose heart are the highways that lead pilgrims to righteousness") -

 

Quran 2:116 Koran 2:116 Verse 2:116 Ayah 2:116 Ayat 2:116 Aya 2:116 And they (some of the Christians) say (not that Jesus is a servant of Allaah which is the meaning of son of Allaah in the Torah Taurat and in the Gospel Injil but that), “Allaah has a (real biological) son” (who has been an eternal partner with Allaah but this is denied in the Gospel Injil where no one knows the hour of the resurrection except Allaah alone not the angels in heaven and not the son meaning the servant Jesus in the Gospel of Mark 13:32 and the Gospel of Matthew 24:36) No, all glory is only to Him (Allaah) to Him (Allaah) belong whatever is in the heavens and the Earth, everything gives worship to Him (Allaah in other words Son of Allaah in the Torah Taurat and in the Gospel Injil mean nothing except servant of Allaah. Quran 19:93 agrees with the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil that the meaning of son of Allaah is servant of Allaah because everyone including the angels and the human named Jesus Isa are servants of Allaah).

Comment 1. In the Gospel Jesus is not Allaah because only Allaah knows the time of the Day of Resurrection.

Gospel of Mark 13:32 (Jesus Isa who was the prophet and messenger of Allaah 2000 years ago said) "But as to that day or that hour (of the Day of Resurrection), no one knows, not even the angels in heaven (the Holy Spirit and the other angels who are servants of Allaah), not even the Son (Jesus Isa who is a servant of Allaah), but only the Father (Allaah who is the creator of every creation). 

 

Gospel of Matthew 24:36 (Jesus Isa who was the prophet and messenger of Allaah 2000 years ago said) But as for that day and hour (of the Day of Resurrection), no one knows it except the Father (Allaah) alone; not even the angels of heaven (the Holy Spirit and the other angels who are servants of Allaah), not even the Son (Jesus Isa who is a servant of Allaah).  

Note 1. If Allaah is one then the Gospel would teach that Jesus does not know the hour. 

Note 2. If Allaah is three in one then the Gospel would teach both Jesus and Allaah know the hour. 

Note 3. In the Gospel Jesus is not Allaah because Jesus does not know the hour meaning the teaching that Jesus is Allaah or part of Allaah contradicts the Gospel meaning Trinity was invented after the time of Jesus and after the writing of the Gospels.

Note 4. There is only one Allaah because no one is equal to Allaah not Jesus and not the angels. 

Note 5. Jesus is like the angels and other creations meaning Jesus is not like Allaah. 

In the Gospel Jesus is not Allaah or part of Allaah because Jesus does not know “the hour” because only Allaah knows “the hour” meaning “Allaah is one’ not three in one.

 

Comment 2. The Quran confirms the Torah Taurat and explains the story of Jesus in the Gospel Injil. 

A. Prophet Muhammad in the Torah Taurat and Gospel Injil.

See Quran 7:157 comments in Quran chapter 7.

 

B. Every prophet of God is “the Word of God made flesh” meaning the word of God comes out of the mouth of every prophet of God in Deuteronomy 18:18.

See Quran 5:116 comments in Quran chapter 5.

 

C. How did Allaah save Jesus. 

See 1. Quran 4:157 and Quran 4:158 comments in Quran chapter 4.

See 2. Quran 29:57 comments in Quran chapter 29.

 

D. The second coming of Jesus and every other human is on the Day of Resurrection.

See Quran 79:7 comments in Quran chapter 79.

 

E. Examples of hadith stories which contradict the teachings of Allaah in the Quran.

See Quran 25:30 comments in Quran chapter 25.

 

F. Allaah protects the Quran, Gospel Injil and the Torah Taurat as proof Allaah is real.

https://sites.google.com/site/islamandthequran/allaah-protects-the-taurat-injil-and-quran

 

G. Jews and Christians who follow their Book and also believe the Quran will be rewarded twice in the hereafter.

See Quran 28:54 comments in Quran chapter 28.

 

Quran 2:117 Koran 2:117 Verse 2:117 Ayah 2:117 Ayat 2:117 Aya 2:117 Allaah made the heavens and the earth. When He (Allaah) commands something to happen He (Allaah) only needs to say “Be (created)” and it is (created).

Comment 1. “Be (created)” means that Allaah decreed every creation.

 

Quran 2:118 Koran 2:118 Verse 2:118 Ayah 2:118 Ayat 2:118 Aya 2:118 And those without knowledge of Allaah ask, “Why does Allaah not talk to us?” or “Why does Allaah not show us a sign?” Just as the people of the past use to say. Their hearts are all the same (meaning that people in the past and the present who ask these questions are the same because both have no faith). We (Allaah) have made revelations that are clear signs (clearly recognized, clearly understood) for people who hold strong faith (in Allaah).

 

Quran 2:119 Koran 2:119 Verse 2:119 Ayah 2:119 Ayat 2:119 Aya 2:119 Truly We (Allaah) have sent you (Prophet Muhammad) with the good news (of Paradise in the hereafter for those with faith in Allaah) and as a warner (of Hell fire in the hereafter for those with no faith in Allaah). And You (Prophet Muhammad) shall not be responsible for those who shall be in Hell fire.

Note 1. Quran 17:60 Verse 17:60 “.... We (Allaah) warn (people to do what is good and avoid what is evil) and make them afraid (of Allaah by describing the home for evil doers in Hell Fire in the Hereafter) but it only increases them (some of the humans) in nothing but greater disobedience against Allaah (and the commandment to do what is good and avoid what is evil). 

  

Quran 2:120 Koran 2:120 Verse 2:120 Ayah 2:120 Ayat 2:120 Aya 2:120 The Jews and the Christians shall never be pleased with you (Prophet Muhammad) unless you follow their (Jewish or Christian) religion (and believe what they believe in Quran 2:111 where only Jews and Christians will be granted Paradise. However Allaah reveals to you in Quran 2:62, Quran 2:112, Quran 3:113 – 3:115, Quran 4:123, Quran 5:48, Quran 5:69 and Quran 5:82 – 5:85 that whoever submits to Allaah no matter if they are Jewish or Christian or Muslim or anyone else they will all get their reward in Paradise from Allaah). Say (Prophet Muhammad to the Jews and the Christians), “Allaah’s guidance is the (only) guidance (I am following).” If you (Prophet Muhammad) were to follow their (Jewish or Christian) desires (for you to become a Jew or a Christian) after knowledge (from Allaah) has reached you (telling you in Quran 2:113 that if you became a Jew then the Christians would not be pleased and if you became a Christian then the Jews would not be pleased; then you would have disobeyed what Allaah has commanded you to do and) then you (Prophet Muhammad) would have no protector or helper from Allaah (in the hereafter on the Day of Judgement because you would have disobeyed your mission which is further explained in Quran 5:48 where Allaah has decreed the establishment of Islam and commands that Prophet Muhammad tell the Jews, Christians and Muslims to strive for all that is good with guidance to goodness explained in Quran 4:114 and Quran 4:123. In the hereafter Allaah will show which people on the earth including which people in Judaism and in Christianity and in Islam were the best in behaviour on the earth in Quran 5:48).

Comment 1. Allaah will tell Prophet Muhammad to establish Islam and the reason is explained further in Quran 5:48 which commands Jews, Christians and Muslims to strive for all that is good with guidance to goodness explained in Quran 4:114 and Quran 4:123. 

 

Quran 2:121 Koran 2:121 Verse 2:121 Ayah 2:121 Ayat 2:121 Aya 2:121 Those to whom We (Allaah) have given the Scripture (the Torah Taurat to the Jews and the Gospel Injil to the Christians and the Koran Quran to the Muslims) and who recite it (the Scripture) with its true recital (meaning with its true meaning). They are the ones that believe in it (Allaah’s Scripture in the Torah Taurat and in the Gospel Injil and in the Koran Quran). Those who reject faith in it (the Scripture in Allaah’s Torah Taurat and in the Gospel Injil and in the Koran Quran) they are the losers (in the hereafter). 

 

Quran 2:122 Koran 2:122 Verse 2:122 Ayah 2:122 Ayat 2:122 Aya 2:122 O Children of Israel, remember My (Allaah’s) favour which I (Allaah) bestowed on you (in the Torah covenant in Deuteronomy 31:9, Deuteronomy 4:13, Deuteronomy 28:69, Deuteronomy 4:31, Deuteronomy 7:9-7:12 commanding that no one shall add or subtract from the Torah in Deuteronomy 4:2 and Deuteronomy 13:1 in Jewish Tanakh or Deuteronomy 12:32 in a Christian Bible and forever in Deuteronomy 5:10, Deuteronomy 29:28 in Jewish Tanakh or Deuteronomy 29:29 in a Christian Bible, Psalm 111:9, Isaiah 59:21 is the promise to the Jewish people who are mentioned in Isaiah 36:11 and Isaiah 36:13 and Gospel of Matthew 5:17-5:20 and Quran 2:40) and that I (Allaah) preferred you over (all the creatures of) the worlds (of humans and jinn as explained in Isaiah 53 here https://sites.google.com/site/islamandthequran/isaiah-53-explained ).

 

Quran 2:123 Koran 2:123 Verse 2:123 Ayah 2:123 Ayat 2:123 Aya 2:123 Then guard yourselves against a Day (the Day of Judgment in the hereafter) when no soul can get help from another, when no compensation shall be accepted and no intercession shall be of any use and there shall be no (outside) help (for you).

Note 1. Unless Allaah wills in the hereafter for an angel of Allaah or a messenger of Allaah or others to speak but they shall only say what Allaah has permitted them to say.

 

Quran 2:124 Koran 2:124 Verse 2:124 Ayah 2:124 Ayat 2:124 Aya 2:124 And when Prophet Abraham Ibrahim was tested (for his faith) by his Lord (Allaah) with certain commands (in a vision dream to sacrifice his son in Quran 37:98 – 37:113 see Quran 6:60 and Quran 39:42 “Allaah is the one who takes your souls at night”, Quran 17:60 “the vision” of Prophet Muhammad meaning the dream, Quran 12:6 and Quran 38:45 the vision meaning dream of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim, Prophet Isaac Ishaq and Prophet Jacob Yaqub Israel and Quran 48:27 Prophet Muhammad’s vision meaning dream) and he (Prophet Abraham Ibrahim) fulfilled them (and Allaah stopped Prophet Abraham Ibrahim from sacrificing his son), He (Allaah) said, “I shall make you a (religious) leader of humankind.” (Prophet Abraham Ibrahim) said, “and of my offspring” (meaning my children and my descendants, shall they also be religious leaders of humanity)?” He (Allaah) said “(Yes but) My (Allaah’s) covenant (agreement) does not include wrong-doers and those without faith (and in Quran 37:113 Allaah blessed Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and Prophet Isaac Ishaq but of their offspring are some that do good to their souls and some that do wrong to their souls. Allaah leaves no other blessing in the story of the sacrifice).”  

Comment 1. Prophet Abraham Ibrahim was tested for his faith by Allaah with certain commands in a vision dream ordering the sacrifice of his "only son" Prophet Isaac Ishaq in the Torah Taurat and in Quran 2:124. 

Quran 38:45 - 38:48 shows that Prophet Isaac Ishaq was the only son living with Prophet Abraham Ibrahim at the time of the vision dream of the sacrifice and this is the reason Prophet Ishmael Ismail is not blessed with his father and with vision in Quran 38:48 like Prophet Isaac Ishaq is blessed with his father and with vision in Quran 38:45 - 38:47. 

The story of Prophet Ishmael Ismail starts in Quran 2:125 meaning the story of the sacrifice of the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim is the story of Prophet Isaac Ishaq in Quran chapters 11, 15, 19, 29, 37, 51 and Quran 2:124 whereas the story of the building of the Kabah is the story of Prophet Ishmael Ismail in Quran 2:125.

This understanding is confirmed in two hadith stories about Prophet Ishmael Ismail which make no mention of the sacrifice because the sacrifice is the story of Prophet Isaac Ishaq as proof that no one can change the word of Allaah in the Torah Taurat and in the Quran.

The proof that Allaah is real is that the same son was to be sacrificed in both the Torah Taurat and in the Quran.

 

Genesis 22:2 And He (Allaah) said: “Take your son, your only son (who still lives with you, reminding him that Allaah had earlier taken Ishmael Ismail and Hagar Hajar away from him into Allaah’s care in the desert in Genesis chapter 21 meaning Ishmael Ismail was not living with Abraham Ibrahim in Genesis chapter 22 when Allaah is testing Abraham Ibrahim a second time to show if Abraham Ibrahim will give Allaah his second son who is the only son still living with him after Abraham Ibrahim gave Ishmael Ismail and Hagar Hajar to Allaah in the desert in Genesis chapter 21), whom you love (Allaah makes the test very hard by demanding his second son and reminding him that this is his only remaining son and reminding him that he already gave Allaah one son in Genesis chapter 21 and reminding him of his love for these sons), even (namely, that is) Isaac Ishaq and go to the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt-offering on one of the mountains which I (Allaah) will tell you. (Will Abraham Ibrahim give Allaah the only son who is living with him after he already gave Ishmael Ismail and Hagar Hajar to Allaah in the desert in Genesis chapter 21. Will Abraham Ibrahim give Allaah both his sons?).


Muslims in the first 350 years believed the Torah Taurat.

Stories claiming Muslims did not believe the Torah Taurat in the time of the prophet were invented after the death of Prophet Muhammad. 

See http://www.judaism-islam.com/islam-teaches-torah-is-corrupted-tahrif-but-what-does-that-mean/

 

The proof that Allaah was invented would be the Torah Taurat and the Quran naming different sons of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim in the story of the sacrifice as proof that humans invented whatever they wanted in books that had no protection.

The proof that Allaah is real is that the Torah Taurat and the Quran both agree that the son to be sacrificed was Prophet Isaac Ishaq.

Disagreement comes not from the books of Allaah but from the hadith stories of humans

See. Quran 25:30 comments with examples of hadith stories which contradict the teachings of Allaah in Quran chapter 25.

 

1. Prophet Isaac Ishaq is blessed with his father and vision. 

Prophet Abraham Ibrahim, Prophet Isaac Ishaq and Prophet Jacob Yaqub Israel all understood the vision of the well known dreams that are described in the Quran and in the Torah Taurat. 

 

Quran 38:45 Verse 38:45 And mention Our (Allaah’s) servant Prophet Abraham Ibrahim, Prophet Isaac Ishaq and Prophet Jacob Yaqub Israel (who were), men with strength (of faith in Allaah) and vision (to understand the meaning of dreams). 

 

Quran 38:46 Verse 38:46 We (Allaah) chose them (Prophet Abraham Ibrahim, Prophet Isaac Ishaq and Prophet Jacob Yaqub Israel) for an exclusive (quality which is their) remembrance of the home (in the hereafter which is the final destination after death) 

 

Quran 38:47 Verse 38:47 And indeed they (Prophet Abraham Ibrahim, Prophet Isaac Ishaq and Prophet Jacob Yaqub Israel) to Us (Allaah) from the chosen ones are the best (of humans).

 

Quran 38:48 Verse 38:48 And mention Prophet Ishmael Ismail and Prophet Elisha Al-Yasha and Prophet Ezekiel Zulkifl Dhul-Kifl. And all are from the best (of humans). 

 

2. Why is Prophet Ishmael Ismail not blessed with vision (the interpretation of dreams) in Quran 38:48 like Prophet Isaac Ishaq is blessed with vision (the interpretation of dreams) with his father in Quran 38:45 and Quran 12:6? 

Prophet Ishmael Ismail is not connected to the stories of the well known vision of dreams that are described in the Quran and in the Torah Taurat. 

Quran 12:6 Verse 12:6“And so your Lord (Allaah) shall choose you (Prophet Joseph Yusuf) and shall teach you the interpretation of stories (dreams) and shall perfect His (Allaah’s) favour on you and on the family of Prophet Jacob Yaqub Israel as He (Allaah) perfected it on your fathers before you, (who were) Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and Prophet Isaac Ishaq. Your Lord (Allaah) knows all things and is wise.” 

 

3. Why is Prophet Ishmael Ismail not blessed with his father in Quran 38:48 like Prophet Isaac Ishaq is blessed with his father in Quran 38:45? 

Prophet Ishmael Ismail and Prophet Isaac Ishaq were not living together at the time of the vision dream of the sacrifice of the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim. 

 

4. How does the Quran explain why Allaah told Prophet Abraham Ibrahim to sacrifice “his only son” Isaac Ishaq in the Torah Taurat?

In the Quran Allaah shows that Prophet Isaac Ishaq was the only son living with Prophet Abraham Ibrahim at the time of the vision dream of the sacrifice.

After the story of the sacrifice of the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim in Quran chapter 37 Allaah shows in the next chapter Quran chapter 38 that Prophet Isaac Ishaq was “the only son” living with Prophet Abraham Ibrahim during the vision dream of the sacrifice when in Quran 38:45 Allaah blesses Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and Prophet Isaac Ishaq and Prophet Jacob Yaqub Israel  with vision which is the interpretation of the well known dreams that are described in the Quran and in the Torah Taurat and in Quran 38:48 Allaah blesses Prophet Ishmael Ismail without his father and without the vision (dream) as confirmation that Quran chapter 37 is the story of the vision dream of the sacrifice of Prophet Isaac Ishaq. 

 

5. The end of the story of Prophet Isaac Ishaq in Canaan today in Israel and Palestine in this section.

Quran 2:124 is the end of the story of Prophet Isaac Ishaq during the time of Quran 38:45 – 38:47 and Quran 38:48 when the two sons were separated and Prophet Isaac Ishaq was “the only son” living in the home of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim in Canaan today in Israel and Palestine.

The story of the sacrifice of the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim is the story of Prophet Isaac Ishaq in Quran chapters 11, 15, 19, 29, 37, 51 and Quran 2:124.

 

6. The start of the story of Prophet Ishmael Ismail in Bakkah Havilah today in Makkah Saudi Arabia in this section. 

Quran 2:125 is the story of Prophet Ishmael Ismail and describes the building of the Kabah in Makkah Arabia today in Saudi Arabia.

 

7, Prophet Muhammad hadith story about Prophet Ishmael Ismail. 

Prophet Ishmael Ismail had already passed the age at which he was ready to work which is the age when the son was to be sacrificed because before he again met Prophet Abraham Ibrahim he had already married twice and he was already working to support a second wife after divorcing his first wife. 

In two hadith stories Prophet Muhammad makes no mention of sacrifice because Prophet Ishmael Ismail is not the son to be sacrificed.

https://sites.google.com/site/islamandthequran/prophet-muhammad-hadith-about-prophet-ismail

 

8. The sacrifice of the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim in Quran chapter 37. 

In the first test Allaah ordered Prophet Abraham Ibrahim to send Prophet Ishmael Ismail and his mother Hagar Hajar into the desert.

In the second test Allaah ordered Prophet Abraham Ibrahim to sacrifice Prophet Isaac Ishaq who was the only son still living with him after Allaah had long ago taken away Ishmael Ismail and his mother Hagar Hajar to Allaah's care in the desert. 

Would Prophet Abraham Ibrahim reject Allaah by saying first you took Ishmael Ismail away from me and now you want to take my only son who is still living with me? No, Prophet Abraham Ibrahim did not say that.

Would Prophet Abraham Ibrahim reject Allaah by saying you promised future generations for me from Isaac Ishaq and now you want me to kill him? No, Prophet Abraham Ibrahim did not say that.

Prophet Abraham Ibrahim passed the test and Allaah showed that Allaah always keeps a promise by stopping the sacrifice and returning Isaac Ishaq to Prophet Abraham Ibrahim to produce the future generations as Allaah had promised.

The only people who Allaah blesses in the story of the sacrifice in Quran chapter 37 are Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and Prophet Isaac Ishaq both separately and together as the father and the son. 

See Quran chapter 37 comments in Quran chapter 37.

 

9. Allaah ordered Prophet Abraham Ibrahim to send Prophet Ishmael Ismail and Hagar Hajar into the desert and later in a vision dream to sacrifice his only son Isaac Ishaq who was the only son still living with him in Quran 37:98 – 37:113.

See Quran 37:113 comments in Quran chapter 37.

 

10. The story of Prophet Ishmael Ismail and Prophet Isaac Ishaq.

Quran 2:125 Koran 2:125 Verse 2:125 Ayah 2:125 Ayat 2:125 Aya 2:125 And when We (Allaah) made the House (“the House” is l-bayta, see Quran 3:97 “the House” is l-bayti, see Quran 5:97 “the Sacred House” is l-bayta l-harama for mankind which is the Kabah, see Quran 22:26 “the House” is l-bayti which is the House for mankind in Quran 22:25 called “and the sacred mosque” is wal-masjidi l-harami, Quran 22:29 and Quran 22:33 refers to the Kabah in Makkah as the “Ancient House”) a place of return (pilgrimage) for mankind and security (safety) and said “Take the place where Prophet Abraham Ibrahim stood as a place of prayer.” And We (Allaah) made a covenant (agreement) with Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and Prophet Ishmael Ismail saying, “Purify (clean) My (Allaah’s) House (“My House” is baytiya) for those who circumambulate (walk around it, see Quran 22:26 circumambulate “My House” is baytiya, see Quran 22:26 circumambulate “the Ancient House” is bil-bayti l-ʿatīqi) and those who seclude themselves for devotion and prayer, and those who bow down and those who prostrate (their forehead to the ground.” Allaah moved people in Arabia away from stone idol worship at the Kabah and taught them the religion of Allaah by giving the first Muslims a direction of prayer towards Zion for the first 13 years of Islam in Makkah and the first 17 months of Islam in Yathrib Madinah. The Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 84:6 – 84:8 explains that the reason the first Muslims faced towards Zion was to teach them that “Happy is the man whose strength of belief is in You Allaah; in whose heart are the highways that lead pilgrims to righteousness” and to show the Jews and Christians that the Allaah of Islam is also the Allaah of Judaism and the Allaah of Christianity as explained in Quran 2:115. Then in Quran 2:125 Allaah gave Islam a new direction of prayer facing the Kabah in Makkah for the purpose of teaching that the origin of pilgrimage and circumambulation around the Kabah is for the worship of Allaah and not for the worship of stone statues so that the people of Arabia might understand and turn to the worship of Allaah and abandon stone idol worship). 

Comment 1. See Quran 2:124 comments.

 

Quran 2:126 Koran 2:126 Verse 2:126 Ayah 2:126 Ayat 2:126 Aya 2:126 And when Prophet Abraham Ibrahim said, "My Lord (Allaah), make this a city (“a city” is baladan, see Quran 2:125 which describes the origin of circumambulation around the Kabah for the worship of Allaah in Makkah. Quran 22:29 and Quran 22:33 refers to the Kabah in Makkah as the “Ancient House”) secure (safe) and provide fruits (rewards, benefits) for whoever of its people believed in Allaah and the Last Day (the Day of Resurrection)." He (Allaah) said, "(Yes I shall) and for those who disbelieved I will grant them enjoyment for a little while (on the Earth) and then (in the hereafter) I (Allaah) shall compel them to the punishment of the fire which is the destination for evil (evil-doers in the hereafter).”

 

Quran 2:127 Koran 2:127 Verse 2:127 Ayah 2:127 Ayat 2:127 Aya 2:127 And when Prophet Abraham Ibrahim with Prophet Ishmael Ismail was raising the foundations of the House (“the House” is l-bayti which is the same word used in Quran 22:26 that describes walking around the house which is associated with the Kaaba in Mecca Arabia today the Kabah in Makkah Saudi Arabia and is mentioned in the covenant with Allaah in Quran 2:125 and as the place for sacrificing animals in Quran 22:33, and Prophet Abraham Ibrahim prayed) saying, "Our Lord (Allaah), accept from us (this service to You Allaah). You (Allaah) are the all hearing and the all knowing.”  

 

Quran 2:128 Koran 2:128 Verse 2:128 Ayah 2:128 Ayat 2:128 Aya 2:128 “Our Lord (Allaah), make us (Prophet Abraham Ibrahim with Prophet Ishmael Ismail) both submissive to You (Allaah, Muslim means submit) and from our offspring a community who are submissive to You (Allaah, Muslim means submit). And show us our ways of worship and turn to us (in mercy). You (Allaah) are the forgiver and the Most Merciful.”

 

Quran 2:129 Koran 2:129 Verse 2:129 Ayah 2:129 Ayat 2:129 Aya 2:129 (Prophet Abraham Ibrahim said) “Our Lord (Allaah), raise up in them (our children) a messenger who shall recite to them Your (Allaah’s) verses and shall teach the book and the wisdom and purify (clean) them (of sin). You (Allaah) are the All-Mighty and the All-Wise.”

Comment 1. See this request fulfilled in Quran 2:151.

 

Quran 2:130 Koran 2:130 Verse 2:130 Ayah 2:130 Ayat 2:130 Aya 2:130 And who would turn away from the religion of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim (who believes in one creator see Quran 3:95 and Quran 14:36) except whoever fooled themself (to believe that creations such as stone statues or a human such as Jesus Isa could be the creator of every creation or a partner with the creator in Quran 9:30 and Quran 9:31)? We (Allaah) chose him (Prophet Abraham Ibrahim as a leader of righteousness) in the world and in the hereafter (Prophet Abraham Ibrahim) will be among the righteous.

 

Quran 2:131 Koran 2:131 Verse 2:131 Ayah 2:131 Ayat 2:131 Aya 2:131 When his Lord (Allaah) said to him (Prophet Abraham Ibrahim) “submit” (yourself to Allaah’s will), he (Prophet Abraham Ibrahim) said, “I have submitted (my will) to the Lord of the Worlds (Muslim means submit, in relation to submit to the will of Allaah).”

 

Quran 2:132 Koran 2:132 Verse 2:132 Ayah 2:132 Ayat 2:132 Aya 2:132 And this was what Prophet Abraham Ibrahim left to his sons and to Prophet Jacob Yaqub Israel: "O my sons, Allaah has chosen this religion (faith, belief) for you, so do not die without submitting (your will to Allaah)."

 

Quran 2:133 Koran 2:133 Verse 2:133 Ayah 2:133 Ayat 2:133 Aya 2:133 Were you witnesses when death was near to Prophet Jacob Yaqub Israel when he said to his sons (the children of Israel), “What shall you worship after me?” They said, “We shall worship your Allaah (the Allaah of Israel meaning the Allaah of Prophet Jacob Israel who is), the Allaah of your forefathers, Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and Prophet Ishmael Ismail and Prophet Isaac Ishaq, and to Him the one Allaah (of every creation) we submit (our will and our faith).”

 

Quran 2:134 Koran 2:134 Verse 2:134 Ayah 2:134 Ayat 2:134 Aya 2:134 Those people (Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and Prophet Ishmael Ismail and Prophet Isaac Ishaq and Prophet Jacob Yaqub and many generations after them have) passed away (meaning died). They shall have what they earned (the righteous rewards earned in their life shall be given to them in the hereafter) and you (the current generation) shall have what (righteous rewards) you earn (in this life given to you in the hereafter). You will not be questioned about what they (the people in past generations) did (you will be questioned on what you did so worry more about what you are doing than what other people did before you because it is what you do by which Allaah shall judge you in the hereafter).

Comment 1. In the Quran "passed away" always means died. 

See "passed away" in Quran 2:134, Quran 2:141, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:75, Quran 7:38, Quran 13:30, Quran 41:25 and Quran 46:17.

Comment 1. Why did Allaah create Jews and Christians and Muslims?

Quran 5:48 Verse 5:48 “… For each (community of Jews, Christians and Muslims) We (Allaah) have appointed a divine law and a way (of religion). If Allaah willed He (Allaah) could have made you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) one community. But He (Allaah) tests you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) by what He (Allaah) has given you (in the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil and the Koran Quran to show who is best in behaviour). So strive for all that is good. To Allaah you shall all return and He (Allaah) shall then inform you (in the Hereafter) about (the correctness of) the religious matters in which you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) argue among each other.

Note 1. Allaah tests you by what Allaah has given you to show who is best in behaviour. So strive for all that is good. 

 

Quran 2:135 Koran 2:135 Verse 2:135 Ayah 2:135 Ayat 2:135 Aya 2:135 They (the Jews and the Christians) say, "Become Jews or Christians if you want be guided (to Allaah)." (Prophet Muhammad) say (to them), “No, I would rather follow the religion of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim because he did not worship idols (the idol of this life, idols of Allaah or any partners with Allaah).” 

 

Quran 2:136 Koran 2:136 Verse 2:136 Ayah 2:136 Ayat 2:136 Aya 2:136 Say (Prophet Muhammad), "We believe in Allaah and what is revealed to us (Muslims) and what was revealed to Abraham Ibrahim and Ishmael Ismail and Isaac Ishaq and Jacob Yaqub Israel and the descendants, and what was given to Moses Musa and Jesus Isa and what was given to the prophets from their Lord (Allaah). We make no distinction between any of them (meaning all the prophets had one message, worship only the one Allaah who is the creator of every creation). And we are submissive to Him (Allaah)."

 

Quran 2:137 Koran 2:137 Verse 2:137 Ayah 2:137 Ayat 2:137 Aya 2:137 If they (the Jews and the Christians) believe as you (Prophet Muhammad) believe in Him (Allaah), then they (the Jews and the Christians) are correctly guided but if they (the Jews and the Christians) turn away then (they have turned away from Allaah’s guidance and) they are in opposition (to Allaah), and Allaah shall be sufficient (protection) for you (Prophet Muhammad) against them. He (Allaah) hears all and knows all.

Comment 1. Judaism and Christianity and Islam are religions of submission to Allaah.

In Quran 3:64 and Quran 2:137 Allaah says if the Jews and the Christians believe in one Allaah like the Muslims believe in one Allaah then the Jews and the Christians and the Muslims who believe in one Allaah and do good deeds are correctly guided. 

Comment 2. Jews and Christians who follow their Book and believe the Quran will be rewarded twice in the hereafter.

Jews and Christians who follow their Book in Quran 5:68 and also believe the Quran will receive a double reward in the hereafter in Quran 28:54, Quran 34:37 and Quran 57:28 meaning the reward for every good deed they do will be doubled because they believed the Quran which tells the Jewish people to follow the Torah Taurat which is their eternal covenant between Allaah and the Hebrew people forever and tells the Christian people to follow the Gospel Injil which is explained in the Quran and tells the Muslim people to follow the Quran in Quran 2:40, Quran 2:41, Quran 2:62, Quran 2:106, Quran 3:93, Quran 4:123, Quran 5:43, Quran 5:47, Quran 5:48, Quran 5:69 and Quran 13:39

 

Quran 2:138 Koran 2:138 Verse 2:138 Ayah 2:138 Ayat 2:138 Aya 2:138 Our religion is from Allaah, What is better than belief that has come from Allaah? We worship Him (Allaah who is the creator of every creation).

 

Quran 2:139 Koran 2:139 Verse 2:139 Ayah 2:139 Ayat 2:139 Aya 2:139 Say (Prophet Muhammad), “Do you dispute with us about Allaah that He (Allaah) is our Lord and your Lord and that we are responsible for our actions and you are responsible for your actions and that we are sincere to Him (Allaah)?”

 

Quran 2:140 Koran 2:140 Verse 2:140 Ayah 2:140 Ayat 2:140 Aya 2:140 Or do you (Jews and Christians) say (to us Muslims) that Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and Prophet Ishmael Ismail and Prophet Isaac Ishaq and Prophet Jacob Yaqub Israel and the Tribes (the 12 tribes of the children of Israel and others) were Jews or Christians? Say (Prophet Muhammad to them), “Do you know (the answer) better than Allaah? (Allaah knows the truth about their faith). (A more important question might be) who is more unjust than those who conceal knowledge that they have from (the revelations of) Allaah? (This refers to some Jews and some Christians who pick and chose what they want in the scriptures and disregard other parts to make arguments, some matters are invented and other matters that are known are hidden by not mentioning them). Allaah is not unaware of what you do.”

Note 1. Quran 2:140 is the reply to the words of Jews and Christians in Arabia 1400 years ago.

 

Quran 2:141 Koran 2:141 Verse 2:141 Ayah 2:141 Ayat 2:141 Aya 2:141 Those people (Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and Prophet Ishmael Ismail and Prophet Isaac Ishaq and Prophet Jacob Yaqub Israel and the 12 tribes of the children of Israel and others that) passed away (died in past generations). They shall have what they earned (of righteous rewards given to them in the hereafter) and you shall have what (righteous rewards) you earn (in this life given to you in the hereafter). You shall not be asked about what other people did in past generations (meaning pay attention to what you do in your life because this life has rewards for righteousness that will be given to you in the hereafter. Allaah knows the truth about the faith and the religion of the people of past generations and there is no reward in the hereafter for you in arguing this question).

Comment 1. In the Quran "passed away" always means died. 

See "passed away" in Quran 2:134, Quran 2:141, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:75, Quran 7:38, Quran 13:30, Quran 41:25 and Quran 46:17.

 

Quran 2:142 Koran 2:142 Verse 2:142 Ayah 2:142 Ayat 2:142 Aya 2:142 (The Jews pray facing Zion which is the Holy Jewish Temple ruins in Jerusalem Al-Quds, Palestine today in Israel and Palestine and so did the Muslims for 13 years in Makkah and for 17 months in Yathrib Madinah see Quran 2:115 and Quran 2:125). The foolish among the people shall say “What has turned them (Prophet Muhammad and his followers) away from their direction of prayers (the direction faced during prayer is qiblah) which they used to face (when the Muslims during prays faced towards Zion meaning the ruins of the First and the Second Holy Jewish Temple in Jerusalem Al-Quds see Quran 2:115 and Quran 2:125)? Say, “To Allaah belong both east and west (meaning whichever way you turn there you shall find the presence of Allaah see Quran 2:115). He (Allaah) guides whom He (Allaah) wills to the straight path (the right path, the correct path as confirmed by Allaah in the Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 84:6 – 84:8 where the reason the first Muslims faced towards Zion was to teach them that “Happy is the man whose strength of belief is in You Allaah; in whose heart are the highways that lead pilgrims to righteousness and the reason the direction was changed is explained in Quran 2:125 and Quran 2:143). –


Comment 1. Why was the direction of prayer changed?

The Jews pray facing the Temple ruins in Jerusalem and so did the Muslims for 13 years in Makkah and for 17 months in Yathrib meaning the mosque in Jerusalem is the location of the first and second temples and is proof that both worship the same God. 

When Muslims changed their direction of prayer to Mecca it removed idol worship in Arabia which was centred in Mecca.

This would not have happened if Muslims were not told in the Quran to change their direction of prayer.

Today Jews and Christians and Muslims all have different directions during prayers.

 

Quran 2:143 Koran 2:143 Verse 2:143 Ayah 2:143 Ayat 2:143 Aya 2:143 And so We (Allaah) made you a community of the middle way (notice this verse is the middle of chapter 2, a moderate people, moderate nation, moderate community, a just and balanced community, sensible and reasonable community, pleasant and temperate community, not too little and not excessive but a medium community, not below expectation and not excessive but a middle community, the best community, not extreme and not fanatical) so that you will bear witness (as the best example of the best community, a moderate people, a just and balance nation) to mankind and the Messenger (Prophet Muhammad) will be a witness (example of the best community, a moderate people, a just and balance nation) for you. We (Allaah) did not make the direction of prayer (“the direction to face during prayer” is the qiblah, qibla) that you were use to (when you faced Zion which contain the ruins of the first and second Jewish Temples in Jerusalem Al-Quds during your prayers see Quran 2:115 and then changed the direction to face the Kaaba in Mecca Arabia today the Kabah in Makkah Saudi Arabia during your prayers see Quran 2:125, for any reason) except that We (Allaah) made evident who followed the messenger (Prophet Muhammad) and who turned away (meaning in the first 13 years in Makkah and 17 months in Yathrib Madinah Allaah showed Prophet Muhammad who among the stone idol worshippers who had become Muslim accepted Prophet Muhammad by turning away from the Kabah in Makkah during prayer and faced during prayer towards Zion which contain the ruins of the first and second Jewish Temples in Jerusalem Al-Quds. When the direction of prayer was changed Allaah showed Prophet Muhammad who among the Muslims accepted Prophet Muhammad by turning away from the ruins of the Temple in Jerusalem Al-Quds and towards the Kabah in Makkah during prayer). It was certainly a great test (to accept facing the new direction of the Kabah in Makkah during prayer) except for those whom Allaah has guided (on the right path to accept the change). And Allaah will not waste your faith (by cancelling prayers that were made in the earlier direction towards Zion which contain the ruins of the first and second Jewish Temple in Jerusalem Al-Quds). Allaah to mankind is full of Kindness and Most Merciful. (In Quran 2:142 the foolish among the people will ask “what turned the Muslims away from their direction of prayer.” Quran 2:148 explains that for every community of Allaah there is a direction for prayer. If this change had not been done then it would have been difficult to remove stone idol worship in Arabia).  

 

Comment 1. Islam is the religion of moderation.

Extreme behaviour is not allowed in Islam.


Quran 5:48 Koran 5:48 “... For each (community of Jews, Christians and Muslims) We (Allaah) have appointed a divine law and a way (of religion). If Allaah willed He (Allaah) could have made you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) one community. But He (Allaah) tests you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) by what He (Allaah) has given you (in the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil and the Koran Quran to show who is best in behaviour). So strive for all that is good. To Allaah you shall all return and He (Allaah) shall then inform you (in the Hereafter) about (the correctness of) the religious matters in which you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) argue among each other.

Note 1. Allaah does not require humans to all be in one religion (Quran 5:48).

Note 2. Allaah does require that every religion worship only Allaah (Quran 3:85).

Note 3. Allaah says if the Jews and the Christians and others worship only Allaah like the Muslims worship only Allaah then the Jews and the Christians and others are correctly guided by Allaah (Quran 3:64). 

Note 4. Allaah commands the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims to do what is good according to what Allaah has given them in the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil and the Koran Quran to show which humans are the best in behaviour.

Note 5. Allaah says that on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement in the hereafter every human will return to Allaah and Allaah shall inform them about the religious matters about which they argued.

 

Comment 2. The religion of Islam and the belief in Islam is correct in moderation. 

Religion and belief is not for Allaah when it is extreme or fanatical. 

The correct belief is the belief that no person should be made to fear a human more than they fear Allaah.

The moderate belief is the belief that no person should be made to fear a human more than they fear Allaah.

The best belief is the belief that no person should be made to fear a human more than they fear Allaah.

The correct religion is the religion where no person is made to fear a human more than they fear Allaah.

The moderate religion is the religion where no person is made to fear a human more than they fear Allaah.

The best religion is the religion where no person is made to fear a human more than they fear Allaah.

 

Comment 3. Religion and belief is not for Allaah when it is extreme or fanatical. 

 

Comment 4. What is a terrorist? 

A terrorist is a person who uses terrorism to achieve a political aim. 

Terrorism is a criminal act intended to provoke a state of terror in the general public by the use of violence (hostility, brutality, cruelty, aggression, and killing) and intimidation (threats, fear, coercion, bullying, and terrorization) in the pursuit of political aims. 

A terrorist deliberately (knowingly, intentionally, purposefully) attacks civilians (unarmed people, defenceless people, vulnerable people). 

No religion allows the deliberate killing of civilians. 

Nothing in any religion can justify the deliberate killing of civilians (unarmed people). 

 

Quran 3:151 Verse 3:151 (On the Day of Resurrection and Judgement) We (Allaah) shall cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieved (in Allaah) because of what they (the stone idol worship in Mecca Arabia today in Makkah Saudi Arabia) associated (in the form of stone idol statues) with Allaah, (these are stone idols) for which He (Allaah) had sent no authority (for you to worship idols instead of correctly praying to Allaah who is the creator of every creation). Those wrong doers shall live in the punishment of fire which is the home for evil (in the hereafter). 

Note 1. Allaah has authority to terrify humans. 

Allaah has not given humans authority to terrify other humans. 

Humans must only fear Allaah. 

It is not fitting to cause a human to fear other humans more than they should fear Allaah. 

 

Note 2. Why does Allaah terrify humans? 

Quran 17:60 Verse 17:60 “.... We (Allaah) warn (people to do what is good and avoid what is evil) and make them afraid (of Allaah by describing the home for evil doers in Hell Fire in the Hereafter) but it only increases them (some of the humans) in nothing but greater disobedience against Allaah (and the commandment to do what is good and avoid what is evil).

 

Note 3. Why should humans fear Allaah more than fearing humans? 

Fear no one but Allaah. 

Quran 2:40 Verse 2:40 “…fear no one except Me (Allaah).”  

Quran 16:52 Verse 16:52 To Him (Allaah) belongs whatever is in the heavens and the earth and to Him (Allaah) is due constant worship. Shall you then fear anyone other than Allaah? 

 

Note 4. Do not make humans afraid of other humans. 

Teaching Allaah’s word is better than terrorism. 

Teaching Allaah’s word is better than intimidation. 

Do not make humans fear a human.

Fear Allaah.

The correct belief is the belief that no person should be made to fear a human more than Allaah.

The moderate belief is the belief that no person should be made to fear a human more than Allaah.

The best belief is the belief that no person should be made to fear a human more than Allaah.

The correct religion is the religion where no person is made to fear a human more than Allaah.

The moderate religion is the religion where no person is made to fear a human more than Allaah.

The best religion is the religion where no person is made to fear a human more than Allaah. 

 

Comment 5. Allaah protected the messenger of Allaah from unknowingly committing the sin of terrorism in Quran 48:25.

Quran 48:25 Verse 48:25 They (the stone idol worshippers of Mecca Arabia today Makkah Saudi Arabia) are the ones who disbelieved (in Allaah) and turned you (Prophet Muhammad) away from the Sacred Mosque (Al-Masjid-al-Haram in Makkah) and your offerings (of 70 camels to Allaah for the feeding of the poor which) were prevented from reaching their place of sacrifice. (You would have been allowed to enter Makkah and fight for the sake of Allaah to worship Allaah at Allaah’s Sacred Mosque in Makkah) if it were not that there were believing men and women who you did not know that you may have trampled (with your offerings of 70 camels that would have killed both the believers who you did not know and the non believers because of a stampede by those animals caused by fighting that Allaah knew would occur) and so unknowingly you would have an evil deed against you, (However Allaah stopped you from entering Makkah) so that Allaah might bring to His (Allaah’s) mercy whom He (Allaah) willed (by preventing you from making sin through your actions which would have killed innocent people). If they (the believers who you did not know and the wrongdoers who had sinned against Allaah) had been apart (so that only the wrongdoers who had sinned against Allaah were present) then We (Allaah) would have punished those of them who disbelieved with a painful punishment (by allowing you into Makkah and allowing the animal stampede to occur to punish the stone idol worshippers who forbid your worship of Allaah at the Sacred Mosque Al-Masjid-al-Haram in Makkah).

Note 1. In the Quran human actions that will result in the sudden killing of innocent people together with wrongdoers is not acceptable in the eyes of Allaah.

 

Quran 2:144 Koran 2:144 Verse 2:144 Ayah 2:144 Ayat 2:144 Aya 2:144 We (Allaah) see the turning of your (Prophet Muhammad’s) face towards heaven (for guidance after 17 months in Yathrib Madinah which is after Muslims have been facing Zion during prayers in the Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 84:6 84:8 for the first 13 years of the development of Islam in Makkah and in the first 17 months of the development of Islam in Yathrib Madinah). So We (Allaah) will turn you (Prophet Muhammad) to the direction of prayer (“prayer direction” is qiblah) which you (Prophet Muhammad) will be pleased with (because your home city of Makkah from which you were driven out will become the centre for the worship of Allaah and not for the worship of stone statues). So turn your face toward the direction of the sacred mosque (“sacred mosque” is masjidi l-harami, Al-Masjid Al-Haraam, at the Kaaba in Mecca Arabia today the Kabah in Makkah Saudi Arabia), and wherever you are, turn your faces toward it (the Kabah in Makkah when you pray). Those who were given the Book (the Jews with the Torah Taurat and the Christians with the Gospel Injil) know that it is the truth from their Lord (meaning the Quran are the commands of Allaah because the Quran is a confirmation of what is with the Jews in the Torah Taurat and with the Christians in the Gospel Injil of Jesus Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John meaning the Quran and Torah Taurat and Gospel Injil are the truth from Allaah as confirmed by the truth of Quran 2:145 which explains why Muslims have been given a direction for prayer that is different to the direction Allaah gave to the Christians and to the Jews). And Allaah is not unaware of what they (the humans) do – 

 

Quran 2:145 Koran 2:145 Verse 2:145 Ayah 2:145 Ayat 2:145 Aya 2:145 And even if you bring to those who have been given the Scripture (the Jews and the Christians) every sign (from Allaah) they (the Jews and the Christians) would (still) not follow your direction of prayer (qiblah) and you (the Muslims) cannot be a follower of their direction of prayer (qiblah) and they (the Jews and the Christians) are not followers of each other's direction of prayer (qiblah. See Quran 2:148). So if you (Prophet Muhammad) follow their desires after this knowledge has come to you (from Allaah), then you would be among the wrongdoers.

 

Quran 2:146 Koran 2:146 Verse 2:146 Ayah 2:146 Ayat 2:146 Aya 2:146 Those (the Jews of Yathrib Madinah) whom We (Allaah) gave the Book (the Torah Taurat) they recognize it (the Quran as a revelation from Allaah) as (clearly as) they recognize their sons, but a group of them (among the Jews of Yathrib) conceal the truth (by not mentioning it) while they know (that what is in the Quran confirms what is in the Torah Taurat that is with them. See Quran 3:93 and Quran 3:199).

Comment 1. Jews and Christians who follow their Book and believe the Quran will be rewarded twice in the hereafter.

Jews and Christians who follow their Book in Quran 5:68 and also believe the Quran will receive a double reward in the hereafter in Quran 28:54, Quran 34:37 and Quran 57:28 meaning the reward for every good deed they do will be doubled because they believed the Quran which tells the Jewish people to follow the Torah Taurat which is their eternal covenant between Allaah and the Hebrew people forever and tells the Christian people to follow the Gospel Injil which is explained in the Quran and tells the Muslim people to follow the Quran in Quran 2:40, Quran 2:41, Quran 2:62, Quran 2:106, Quran 3:93, Quran 4:123, Quran 5:43, Quran 5:47, Quran 5:48, Quran 5:69 and Quran 13:39

  

Quran 2:147 Koran 2:147 Verse 2:147 Ayah 2:147 Ayat 2:147 Aya 2:147 The truth (in the Koran Quran) is from your Lord (Allaah), so do not be among the doubters.

 

Quran 2:148 Koran 2:148 Verse 2:148 Ayah 2:148 Ayat 2:148 Aya 2:148 And for everyone (the Muslim and the Jew and the Christian) there is a direction (to face during prayer see Quran 2:115 and Quran  2:145) and he (the Muslim and the Jew and the Christian) turns to it (during prayer, the Muslim turns to Makkah and the Jew turns to Zion which is Jerusalem Al-Quds and some Christians turned to the East), so compete (with each other in doing) the good (deeds in this world). Wherever you (the Muslim and the Jew and the Christian) will be Allaah will bring you together (on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement. See Quran 5:48). Indeed on all things Allaah is capable (All-Powerful. Jews and Christians who follow their Book in Quran 5:68 and who also believe the Quran will receive a double reward in the hereafter in Quran 28:54, Quran 34:37 and Quran 57:28 meaning the reward for every good deed they do will be doubled because they believed the Quran which explains that every community of Allaah has its direction of prayer in Quran 2:148 and tells the Jewish people to follow the Torah Taurat which is their eternal covenant between Allaah and the Hebrew people forever and tells the Christian people to follow the Gospel Injil which is explained in the Quran and tells the Muslim people to follow the Quran in Quran 2:40, Quran 2:41, Quran 2:62, Quran 2:106, Quran 3:93, Quran 4:123, Quran 5:43, Quran 5:47, Quran 5:48, Quran 5:69 and Quran 13:39).

Comment 1. Which is the correct religion?

1a. Every people have a direction to which they face during prayer (Quran 2:148 Verse 2:148).

1b. The Jewish people face Jerusalem Al-Quds during prayer.

1c. The early Christian people faced East towards the rising Sun during prayer.

1d. The Muslim people face the Kabah in Makkah Saudi Arabia during prayer.

1e. Allaah created all religions and ordained their direction for the offering of public prayers in an assembly.

1f. If the Jews and the Christians believe in one Allaah like the Muslims believe in one Allaah then the Jews and the Christians and the Muslims who believe in one Allaah and do good deeds are correctly guided. See Quran 2:137.

See Quran 2:146 comment.

 

Quran 2:149 Koran 2:149 Verse 2:149 Ayah 2:149 Ayat 2:149 Aya 2:149 Wherever you come from (when it is time for prayer) turn your face in the direction of the Sacred Mosque (“Sacred Mosque” is Al-Masjid l-harami, Al-Masjid Al-Haraam in Makkah). It (this commandment, see Quran 2:148) is the truth from your Lord (Allaah). And Allaah is not unaware of what you (humans) do. 

 

Quran 2:150 Koran 2:150 Verse 2:150 Ayah 2:150 Ayat 2:150 Aya 2:150 Wherever you come from (when it is time for prayer) turn your face in the direction of the Sacred Mosque (“Sacred Mosque” is l-masjidi l-harami, Al-Masjid Al-Haraam in Makkah). And wherever you are (when it is time for prayer) turn your faces in its (the Kabah’s) direction so that people shall have no argument with you (about the correct direction to face during prayer), except those who wronged among them; so do not fear them but fear Me (Allaah) so that I (Allaah) may complete My (Allaah’s) favour on you so that you may be (correctly) guided (by Quran 2:148).

 

Quran 2:151 Koran 2:151 Verse 2:151 Ayah 2:151 Ayat 2:151 Aya 2:151 We (Allaah) sent among you a messenger (Prophet Muhammad who is) from you (the people of Mecca Arabia today Makkah Saudi Arabia), who recites to you Our (Allaah’s) verses and purifies (cleans) you (of sin) and teaches you the Book (the Quran) and the wisdom and teaches you what you did not know.

Comment 1. Quran 2:151 fulfills the request in Quran 2:129.

Comment 2. "Teaches you what you did not know" through Prophet Muhammad in Quran 2:151 confirms Prophet Muhammad is the messenger in what (knowledge of Allaah) they (the humans) did not know in Quran 96:4-96:5.  

 

Quran 2:152 Koran 2:152 Verse 2:152 Ayah 2:152 Ayat 2:152 Aya 2:152 So remember Me (Allaah) and I (Allaah) shall remember you and do not be ungrateful to Me (Allaah).

 

Quran 2:153 Koran 2:153 Verse 2:153 Ayah 2:153 Ayat 2:153 Aya 2:153 All you who believe, seek assistance through patience and prayer. Allaah is with the patient.

Comment 1. Quran 2:153 Verse 2:153 “… Allaah is with the patient.

Quran 103:2 Verse 103:2 Humans are lost (from the mercy of Allaah) –

Quran 103:3 Verse 103:3 Except those who believe and who do righteous deeds and who encourage each other to the truth and encourage each other to have patience.

 

Quran 2:154 Koran 2:154 Verse 2:154 Ayah 2:154 Ayat 2:154 Aya 2:154 And do not speak (when delivering news) of those who are killed in the cause of Allaah as being “dead”, No, they are alive (their soul is alive), but you cannot see them.

Comment 1. The souls of dead people are alive in the care of Allaah until the day they are resurrected on the Day of Judgement in a new physical body that can feel the reward or punishment that they had earned.

 

Quran 2:155 Koran 2:155 Verse 2:155 Ayah 2:155 Ayat 2:155 Aya 2:155 And We (Allaah) shall test you with some fear and hunger and loss of wealth and (loss of) lives and (loss of) property but (We Allaah) give good news (of Paradise in the hereafter) to those who are patient.

Comment 1. The stresses of life are a test of patience from Allaah (Quran 2:155).

Quran 30:60 Verse 30:60 So have patience (Prophet Muhammad), Allaah’s promise is the truth. Do not let those who have no certainty (in their belief in Allaah) make you (Prophet Muhammad) impatient.

Quran 70:5 Verse 70:5 So (Prophet Muhammad) be patient by being gracious in (your) patience (towards the stone idol worshippers in Makkah).

Quran 73:10 Verse 73:10 And have patience with what they (the stone idol worshippers in Makkah) say and when you leave them be polite (to them).

Quran 90:17 Verse 90:17 And be a person who believes (in Allaah who is your creator) and encourage each other to be patient and to show compassion.

Quran 103:2 Verse 103:2 Humans are lost (from the mercy of Allaah) –

Quran 103:3 Verse 103:3 Except those who believe and who do righteous deeds and who encourage each other to the truth and encourage each other to have patience.

 

Quran 2:156 Koran 2:156 Verse 2:156 Ayah 2:156 Ayat 2:156 Aya 2:156 (Those) who say, when misfortune comes, "To Allaah we belong, and to Him (Allaah) we shall return",   

Comment 1. The stresses of life are a test of patience from Allaah (Quran 2:155).

 

Quran 2:157 Koran 2:157 Verse 2:157 Ayah 2:157 Ayat 2:157 Aya 2:157 those are the people on whom (descend) blessings and mercy from their Lord (Allaah) and they are the people that receive guidance to the right path (because they have faith and they do what is good).

Comment 1. The stresses of life are a test of patience from Allaah (Quran 2:155).

 

Quran 2:158 Koran 2:158 Verse 2:158 Ayah 2:158 Ayat 2:158 Aya 2:158 Indeed (the two hills near Makkah in Arabia) the Safa (As-Safa Safah Suffa Zafa) and the Marwah (Al-Marwah Marwa Merwah) are among the symbols (for the remembrance) of Allaah (and not symbols for the remembrance of stone idol worship in the same way as everything on the earth and in the heavens are signs and symbols of Allaah. See Quran 3:97 the Kabah is a sign of Allaah, Quran 5:97 the Kabah and the sacred months and animals for offering and the garlands are signs of Allaah, Quran 17:1 Zion meaning the place of the first and second Jewish Temples of Allaah in Jerusalem Al-Quds are signs of Allaah in the Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 84:6 – 84:8, Quran 22:32 “honour the symbols of Allaah”, Quran 22:36 camels and cattle are symbols of Allaah, Quran 39:42 life and sleep and death are signs of Allaah). So whoever performs Hajj (the major annual pilgrimage) to the House (“the House” is l-bayta, the Kabah in Makkah) or performs Umra Umrah (the minor pilgrimage at any time) there is no blame (of sin) on him if he walks between them (two hills even though this was done by the stone idol worshippers of Makkah who worshipped gods for whom temples had been built on both hills). And whoever voluntarily (and not because Allaah has commanded it) does (something) good (to please Allaah) then Allaah is Appreciative (to you) and All Knowing (of what you do).

 

Quran 2:159 Koran 2:159 Verse 2:159 Ayah 2:159 Ayat 2:159 Aya 2:159 Those who hide (from people) what We (Allaah) sent down of clear proofs and guidance (such as Torah Deuteronomy 18:15 – 18:22 which reveal Allaah’s messengers and prophets) after We (Allaah through angel Gabriel Jibril to Prophet Muhammad) made it clear for the people of the Scripture (the Jews of Yathrib), they (who hide by not revealing all of the Torah Taurat) are the ones who shall receive the curse of Allaah (misfortune from Allaah, the misfortune of having lost Allaah’s guidance for their disbelief in Allaah) and the curse of those entitled to curse (at those who lack faith in Allaah, the creator).

 

Quran 2:160 Koran 2:160 Verse 2:160 Ayah 2:160 Ayat 2:160 Aya 2:160 Only to those who repent (sincerely ask Allaah to forgive their wrongdoing) and make amends (to correct the consequences of their wrongdoing by doing what is good) and openly (sincerely) declare (to Allaah their intention to improve their behaviour), to them I (Allaah) forgive, for I (Allaah) am the forgiver and the Most Merciful.

Comment 1..Forgiveness for adultery in the Quran.

The Koran Quran does not order death for adultery.

In the Koran Quran the punishment for illegal sexual intercourse for unmarried Muslims is Quran 4:15 – 4:18.

In the Koran Quran the punishment for adultery by married Muslims is Quran 4:25 and 24:1 – 24:2.

Forgiveness for all sins including adultery is confirmed in Quran 3:135 – 3:136, 4:17 – 4:18, 4:110, 25:68 – 25:71.

Quran 2:128 explains that Allaah is always ready to forgive because Allaah is the Most Merciful.

 

See. Quran chapter 24 Stoning to death for adultery is not in the Quran.

Quran 77:50 Verse 77:50 In what statement (words, news, reports, information, message, hadith), after it (the verses of Allaah in the Quran), shall they (the humans and the jinn) believe? 

Note. Quran 7:185, Quran 25:29, Quran 25:30, Quran 31:6, Quran 39:23, Quran 45:6 and Quran 77:50 asks when you have the word of Allaah in the Quran what other report would you believe? 

See Quran chapter 24 comments in Quran chapter 24.

 

Quran 2:161 Koran 2:161 Verse 2:161 Ayah 2:161 Ayat 2:161 Aya 2:161 Those who reject faith and who die without faith, on them is the combined curse of Allaah and of angels and of humans (the combined misfortune from Allaah, misfortune of having lost Allaah’s guidance).

  

Quran 2:162 Koran 2:162 Verse 2:162 Ayah 2:162 Ayat 2:162 Aya 2:162 They shall live in there (under Allaah’s wrath in Hell) and their punishment shall not be reduced and they shall not be excused (in the hereafter because they had no faith in Allaah).

Note 1. Quran 17:60 Verse 17:60 “.... We (Allaah) warn (people to do what is good and avoid what is evil) and make them afraid (of Allaah by describing the home for evil doers in Hell Fire in the Hereafter) but it only increases them (some of the humans) in nothing but greater disobedience against Allaah (and the commandment to do what is good and avoid what is evil). 

 

Quran 2:163 Koran 2:163 Verse 2:163 Ayah 2:163 Ayat 2:163 Aya 2:163 And your Allaah is One Allaah, there is no Allaah but He, the most kind and the Most Merciful. 

 

Quran 2:164 Koran 2:164 Verse 2:164 Ayah 2:164 Ayat 2:164 Aya 2:164 See in the creation of the heavens and the earth, see in the changes of the night and the day, see in the sailing of ships through the sea for the benefit of humans, see in the rain which Allaah sends down from the skies and the life which He (Allaah) gives to an earth that is dead, see in the animals of all kinds that He (Allaah) scatters throughout the earth, see in the change of the winds, see in the clouds which are held between the sky and the earth. (Here) indeed are signs (evidence of the creator) for people that reason. 

 

Quran 2:165 Koran 2:165 Verse 2:165 Ayah 2:165 Ayat 2:165 Aya 2:165 Yet there are people who take (for worship) others besides Allaah, as equal (with Allaah, these are some of the Christians who pray to Prophet Jesus Isa instead of praying to Allaah and the stone idol worshipers who pray to stones instead of praying to Allaah). They love them (the Christians love wooden idols of Prophet Jesus Isa and the idol worshipers love stone idols in the same way) as they should love Allaah (only). But those who believe love Allaah more (than anything or anyone else). If only those who do wrong could see their punishment (in the hereafter for their lack of faith in the one Allaah who is the creator of every creation). All power belongs to Allaah and Allaah is severe in punishment (to those without faith in Allaah).  

Comment 1. They love them in the same way as they should only love Allaah means “The Christians love wooden idols of Prophet Jesus Isa and the idol worshipers love stone idols in the same way as they should be in love only with Allaah who is the one who created every creation.”  

 

Quran 2:166 Koran 2:166 Verse 2:166 Ayah 2:166 Ayat 2:166 Aya 2:166 (On the Day of Judgement) when those who were followed (such as Prophet Jesus Isa shall) disown (by declaring himself innocent of) those who (incorrectly) followed (him by wrongfully misleading others when they said that Prophet Jesus Isa was Allaah or was an equal partner with Allaah), those followers (that said the messenger of Allaah is Allaah or an equal partner with Allaah) shall see (in the hereafter) their punishment and they shall see that all their relations (ancestors) disown them (because of their disbelief in Allaah who has no partners and who is the creator of every creation).  

Comment 1. Jesus will reject the evil doers on the Day of Judgement. 

On the Day of Judgement Prophet Jesus Isa shall deny to Allaah that he (Prophet Jesus Isa) had misled his followers who had started to say that Prophet Jesus Isa was Allaah after Prophet Jesus Isa had left the earth).

Gospel of Matthew 7:22 Many will say to me (Prophet Jesus Isa) in that day (The Day of Judgement), “Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in your name? And in your name we have cast out devils? And in your name we have done many wonderful works?

Gospel of Matthew 7:23 And then I (Prophet Jesus Isa) will declare to them (and to Allaah), “I never knew you: depart from me, you (and your) works of wickedness”.

 

Comment 2. In the Gospel Jesus is not Allaah because only Allaah knows the time of the Day of Resurrection in Gospel of Mark 13:32 and Gospel of Matthew 24:36.

See Quran 2:116 comments.

 

Comment 3. In the Gospel Injil there is only one Allaah.

Gospel of Mark 12:29 (A Jewish scribe asked what is the first commandment of Allaah?) and Prophet Jesus Isa answered him, The first of all the commandments (of Allaah) is, Hear (listen), O (all the children of) Israel; The Lord our Allaah is one Lord (Allaah).

Gospel of Mark 12:30 And you shall love the Lord your Allaah with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength: this is the first commandment (of Allaah).

See Quran 2:116 comments.

 

Comment 4. The Quran confirms the Torah Taurat and explains the story of Jesus in the Gospel Injil.

See Quran 2:116 comments.

  

Quran 2:167 Koran 2:167 Verse 2:167 Ayah 2:167 Ayat 2:167 Aya 2:167 And those who followed (Prophet Jesus Isa and who wrongfully said that Prophet Jesus Isa was Allaah or an equal partner with Allaah) shall say (in the hereafter), "If only we had one more chance to return (to the worldly life), we would disown (declare ourselves as innocent from) them (Allaah’s prophet) as they (the prophet) have disowned (declared themselves innocent from) us." Thus Allaah shall show them that their deeds are nothing but (insincere) regrets. And they shall have no way out of the fire of punishment (because of their disbelief and insincerity to Allaah).

 

Quran 2:168 Koran 2:168 Verse 2:168 Ayah 2:168 Ayat 2:168 Aya 2:168 O people, eat the lawful and good things that are on the earth and do not follow the footsteps of Satan Shaitan, he is to you (humans) a clear enemy.

 

Quran 2:169 Koran 2:169 Verse 2:169 Ayah 2:169 Ayat 2:169 Aya 2:169 He (Satan Shaitan) commands you to do only what is evil and sinful and tries to make you say things against Allaah, things of which you have no knowledge.

Comment 1. Satan invites humans to sin by whispering false things about Allaah such as "Allaah is one in three forms."

Anything that is created is not Allaah because Allaah is the creator of every creation.

 

Quran 2:170 Koran 2:170 Verse 2:170 Ayah 2:170 Ayat 2:170 Aya 2:170 When it is said to them (the stone idol worshippers in Makkah) "Follow what Allaah has revealed," They say "No, we shall follow the ways of our fathers". What, even though your fathers had no understanding (by worshipping stone idols) and no guidance (from Allaah)?

 

Quran 2:171 Koran 2:171 Verse 2:171 Ayah 2:171 Ayat 2:171 Aya 2:171 The example of those (stone idol worshippers in Makkah) who disbelieve (in Allaah) is like a person who shouts out to something (like stone idols) that can not hear anything. It (what they do) is nothing but a shout and a call.. They are deaf (to words that are against their stone idol worship), dumb (they cannot speak the truth about their stone idol worship), and blind (they cannot see the true path about their stone idol worship) so they do not understand what they are doing (when they worship stones).

 

Quran 2:172 Koran 2:172 Verse 2:172 Ayah 2:172 Ayat 2:172 Aya 2:172 All you who believe (in Allaah), eat the good things that We (Allaah) have provided to you and give thanks to Allaah when you worship Him.

 

Quran 2:173 Koran 2:173 Verse 2:173 Ayah 2:173 Ayat 2:173 Aya 2:173 He (Allaah) has forbidden you to eat the meat of animals found dead, and blood, and the meat of pigs, and that which is killed as a sacrifice in the name of anyone other than Allaah. But if one is forced by necessity and not from a desire to be disobedient or from a desire to exceed the limit of the law then there is no sin on you (to eat those foods). Truly Allaah is most forgiving and Most Merciful.

 

Quran 2:174 Koran 2:174 Verse 2:174 Ayah 2:174 Ayat 2:174 Aya 2:174 Those (Jews of Yathrib Arabia) who hide (during their arguments, discussions or teachings, something of) the Scripture that Allaah revealed have exchanged it (the truth of Allaah’s revelations) for a small price (of worldly gain such as profit, pride or fame because of arrogance, jealousy or dishonesty) and they fill their stomach with nothing but fire (evil). Allaah shall not speak to them on the Day of Resurrection (because of Allaah’s anger for what they said about Allaah and His messengers), nor clean them (of their sins), and theirs shall be a painful punishment (in the hereafter).

Comment 1. See Quran 2:55 comments.

 

Quran 2:175 Koran 2:175 Verse 2:175 Ayah 2:175 Ayat 2:175 Aya 2:175 They are the ones who buy error instead of (buying) guidance (from Allaah), and (who buy) punishment instead of (buying) forgiveness (from Allaah). What made them steadfast for the fire (in the hereafter)? 

 

Quran 2:176 Koran 2:176 Verse 2:176 Ayah 2:176 Ayat 2:176 Aya 2:176 It is because Allaah has revealed the Book (the Koran) with the truth and those who go against the Book (the Quran) are in opposition (to Allaah).

 

Quran 2:177 Koran 2:177 Verse 2:177 Ayah 2:177 Ayat 2:177 Aya 2:177 It is not (a sign of) righteousness if you turn your faces towards the East or the West (in prayer), but righteousness is this, that one should believe in Allaah and the Last Day and the Angels and the Book (the Quran) and (all) the Prophets and give away (your) wealth out of love for Him (Allaah) to your near relations and the orphans and the needy and the traveller and those who ask for help and  in freeing the necks (slaves) and keep up prayer and pay the tax to help the poor (Zakah) and fulfill agreements that have been promised, and those who are patient in times of distress, sickness and in time of conflicts, these are the people who fear and obey (Allaah).

 

Quran 2:178 Koran 2:178 Verse 2:178 Ayah 2:178 Ayat 2:178 Aya 2:178 All you who believe, the law of equal punishment (legal retribution, legal justice, taking a life for a lost life) is prescribed for you for those murdered, (Charge with the crime of murder) the free (person) when the free (person is the murderer), (charge with the crime of murder) the slave when the slave (is the murderer) and (charge with the crime of murder) the woman when the woman (is the murderer). But if the killer is forgiven (pardoned) by his (injured) brother (the injured brothers are the inheritors of the killed man who has the right to punish or pardon the murderer) then grant any reasonable demand and compensate him well (with blood money or other compensation) and with kindness, this is a concession and a mercy from your Lord (Allaah. Also see Quran 5:45). After this whoever exceeds the limits (for example, if there is another killing after the pardon or the compensation) then there shall be a painful punishment (in this world and in the hereafter).

Comment 1. What is the benefit of you forgiving anyone?

Allaah forgives you if you forgive others (Quran 39:53, Quran 42:43, Quran 45:14 and Quran 64:14).

Love your neighbour (Quran 42:43).

Love your enemy (Quran 41:34 – 41:36, Quran 42:43 and Quran 60:7).

Forgive your enemy (Quran 41:34 – 41:36 and Quran 42:43. Allaah will forgive even those who mocked Prophet Muhammad and those who plotted to kill Prophet Muhammad if they repent and ask Allaah for forgiveness in Quran 8:30 – 8:33).

Forgive your neighbour (Quran 42:43).

Forgive disbelievers (Quran 45:14).

Forgive believers (Quran 49:10).

Forgive Jews (Quran 5:13).

Forgive the killer (Quran 5:45 and Quran 85:10).

Exploding bombs in crowds is forbidden by Allaah (Quran 48:25).

Fighting today is not in the cause of Allaah (Quran 48:25 comments).

If you pardon what people have done and overlook the faults of people and forgive people then Allaah is forgiving and merciful to you (Quran 39:53, Quran 42:43, Quran 45:14 and Quran 64:14).

 

Comment 2. Allaah teaches that forgiving a killer is to correctly judge by what Allaah has revealed in Quran 5:45.

in Quran 5:45 Allaah teaches that the charity of forgiving a killer shall be rewarded in the hereafter.

Allaah teaches that the charity of forgiving a killer shows you love Allaah more than you love revenge.

Forgiveness to all humans is counted as a good deed in the sight of Allaah on the Day of Judgement.

 

Quran 5:45 Verse 5:45 (And in the Torah Taurat) We (Allaah) gave all the laws, (taking) the life for the (lost) life, (taking) the eye for the (lost) eye, (taking) the nose for the (lost) nose, (taking) the ear for the (lost) ear, (taking) the tooth for the (lost) tooth, these are the laws of retaliation for giving wounds that are equal to what were unjustly inflicted. Whoever forgoes it (meaning whoever gives the mercy of not retaliating) shall be rewarded by (Allaah) cancelling some of the sins of the person (that had the right to retaliate but did not retaliate but instead they followed in the way of Allaah’s recommended mercy). Whoever does not judge by what Allaah has revealed are wrong doers.

 

2a. Around the year 2000 Sheik Bulbul in Galkayo, Somalia said on a Radio Galkayo religious lesson “If anyone where to kill me I forgive them in advance (I pardon them in advance).” He used Quran 5:45 to save the life of any future killer as a righteous deed for Allaah to show he cared more for Allaah than he cared of revenge for himself or of revenge against any person. Such a forgiveness and pardon to a killer is from humans in this life only because it shall be Allaah that decides on any punishment for a killer in the hereafter.In 2004 in Galkayo, Somalia, Sheik Bulbul was accidentally shot and killed while trying to stop a fight between two men, both men were pardoned as Sheik Bulbul had requested 4 years earlier).

 

2b. Your forgiveness and your pardon can be a test that you love Allaah more than anything else.

\See in Quran 2:165 “… Those who believe love Allaah more than anything else. ...”).

 

2c. Your forgiveness and your pardon can be a test that you love Allaah more than your relations who were killed by someone.

See in Quran 2:200 “... remember Allaah (in praise) much more than you remember your ancestors. ...”).

 

Comment 3. Do not exceed the limits in the matter of taking life. 

The limit requires that in the case of killing, only the killer may be killed (if he or she has not been pardoned).

 

Quran 17:33 Verse 17:33 And do not kill anyone which Allaah has forbidden, except what is legal. And whoever is killed unjustly (not by mistake), We (Allaah) have given his heir the authority (for legal action to demand the law of equal punishment or to forgive or to take blood money as compensation). But do not allow him to exceed the limits in the matter of taking life (meaning, no one can be killed except the killer). Indeed he (his heir) is helped (by the law and those who administer the court of law).

 

3a. When Muslims kill innocent Muslims or innocent non Muslims they have exceeded the limits of acceptable human behaviour.

No human is responsible for the wrong that was done by another human. 

No human can be blamed for a wrong except the human who did the wrong.

Quran 39:7 Verse 39:7 "... No one can carry the sins of another person. ..."

 

3b. It is forbidden for Muslims to kill innocent Muslims or innocent non Muslims in retaliation for a wrong that was done to them.

Quran 6:164 Verse 6:164 "... Each soul earns no blame (for sin) except against itself and no bearer (of the blame of sin) shall bear the burden (of the blame of sin) of another (soul). 

 

Quran 2:179 Koran 2:179 Verse 2:179 Ayah 2:179 Ayat 2:179 Aya 2:179 – The law of equal punishment (legal retribution, legal justice, taking a life for a lost life) is (to save) life, so that you may understand (the consequences in this world and in the next world for your actions) and may restrain yourselves (from killing).

Comment 1. In Quran 2:178 and Quran 2:179 Allaah warns his creations to protect their life and avoid killing. Allaah created life and all life belongs to Allaah. Allaah has ordered that life be protected.

 

Comment 2. In Quran 2:179 Allaah explains to “people of understanding” that if the killer knows they shall be killed then they shall stop themselves (from killing) and both save their own life and the life of the person that they wanted to kill and so they shall be rightly guided by Allaah not to kill.

 

Comment 3. In Quran 2:179 those that kill carry the burden of their evil sins. They are against Allaah and are not “people of understanding” and they (the killers) have lost the guidance of Allaah.

 

Comment 4. Why is the saving of human life important?

Allaah revealed in Quran 2:179 that the purpose of revealing Quran 2:178 is to save human life.

Quran 5:32 Verse 5:32 From that time (humans were warned not to murder and) We (Allaah) decreed on the children of Israel (through the inspiration of the teachers of the Jewish Talmud and confirmed for the Muslim in Quran 6:151) that whoever kills a soul (kills a life, kills a person) it is as if he has killed all of humankind (so that humans understand the great value and preciousness of one human life and to warn humans against the great evil of killing one human soul) unless it is in retaliation for murder or for misbehaviour in the land. And whoever saves it (saves a life, saves a soul, saves a person) it is as if he has saved all of humankind (so that humans understand the great value and preciousness of one human life and to teach humans the great goodness in the saving of one human soul). Our (Allaah’s) messengers came to them (the children of Israel) with clear arguments but still after that many of them continued to commit great crimes (by killing humans unlawfully) in the land (so this is a message from Allaah to the human not to commit the great crime of killing human life but instead to work to save human life). 

Note 1. In the Judgment of Allaah the saving of one human life is a great deed because in the Judgment of Allaah it is like saving every human life on the earth. 

Note 2. On the Day of Judgment whoever saved a life will be rewarded with a reward fitting for a person who had saved all humankind if Allaah wills.

Note 3. On the Day of Judgment whoever destroyed a life will be punished with a punishment fitting for a person who had destroyed all humankind if Allaah wills.

Note 4. Human life is equal in the sight of Allaah. Those who save all human life are among the righteous if Allaah wills. 

Note 5. Human deeds are not equal in the sight of Allaah. Those who do good deeds to all people are among the righteous if Allaah wills. 

Note 6. The saving of one life in this world no matter if that person is Muslim or non Muslim or the saving of one life by guiding a person to goodness so that they are successful in the hereafter is a great deed of goodness in the sight of Allaah.

Note 7. Whoever kills a person it is a crime equal to killing all of mankind.

Note 8. Whoever saves a life has done a deed that is equal to saving all of mankind.

Note 9. Whoever kills an innocent life has committed a terrible crime in the sight of Allaah.

Quran 2:180 Koran 2:180 Verse 2:180 Ayah 2:180 Ayat 2:180 Aya 2:180 Prescribed for you when death approaches any of you and you have some goods to leave (as inheritance) is to make a will (wasiyya) for your parents and the near relatives that is fair (correct); this is a duty on the righteous ones.

Quran 2:182 Koran 2:182 Verse 2:182 Ayah 2:182 Ayat 2:182 Aya 2:182 But whoever fears from the testator (the person who has made the will, wasiyya) some mistake (such as an error in law that needs correcting) or (intentional) wrong and brings a settlement between them (the heirs) then there is no sin on him. Allaah is most forgiving and merciful.

Quran 2:183 Koran 2:183 Verse 2:183 Ayah 2:183 Ayat 2:183 Aya 2:183 All you who believe, fasting is prescribed to you as it was prescribed to those before you so that you may become righteous (faithful to the will of Allaah).

 

Quran 2:184 Koran 2:184 Verse 2:184 Ayah 2:184 Ayat 2:184 Aya 2:184 (Fast) for a fixed number of days, but if any of you is ill or on a journey, the same number (of fast days should be made up) from other days. And as for those who can fast with difficulty (example, old people, etc.) they have (a choice either to fast or) to feed a poor person (for each day). But it is better for you (in reward in the hereafter) to do good (example, feeding the poor, etc) voluntarily (for free by your own initiative). It is better for you to fast, if only you knew (the value of the reward for fasting).

 

Quran 2:185 Koran 2:185 Verse 2:185 Ayah 2:185 Ayat 2:185 Aya 2:185 In the month of Ramadan the Quran was revealed (for the first time) as guidance for mankind with clear proofs (confirming the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil) for the guidance (through stories and examples) and the criterion (of right and wrong). So whoever of you sights (the crescent of the Moon on the first night of) the month (of Ramadan) should spend that month in fasting, but if anyone is ill or on a journey, the prescribed period of days (should be made up) later. Allaah intends that things be easy for you, He (Allaah) does not want to make things difficult for you and (Allaah wants you) to complete the prescribed period (of the fast) and to glorify Him (Allaah) in (the way) that He (Allaah) has guided you (until the end of fasting when the crescent of the Moon returns) and that you give thanks to Him (Allaah).

Quran 2:186 Koran 2:186 Verse 2:186 Ayah 2:186 Ayat 2:186 Aya 2:186 And when My (Allaah’s) servants (the humans) ask you (Prophet Muhammad) concerning Me (Allaah), then surely I (Allaah) am near and I (Allaah) answer the requests of prayer when they (who have faith) call on Me (Allaah), so they should respond to My (Allaah’s) call (with obedience) and believe in Me (Allaah) so that they may be (correctly) guided.

 

Quran 2:187 Koran 2:187 Verse 2:187 Ayah 2:187 Ayat 2:187 Aya 2:187 It is made lawful for you to have sexual relations with your wives on the night of the fasts (after the fast is broken at night). They are your garments and you are their garments (meaning enjoy the pleasure of living together, sexual intercourse). Allaah knows what you used to secretly do among yourselves but He (Allaah) turned to you and forgave you (by changed the rules of the fast) so (that you can) now have sexual relations with them and do what Allaah has ordained (made legal) for you (such as making children) and eat and drink until the white thread of dawn (just before sunrise) appear to you distinct from its black thread (night) and then (start the) fast till the night appears but do not have sexual relations with your wives while you are in the mosques (confining oneself away from worldly affairs and in prayer). Those are (the legal) limits (set by) Allaah, obey the rules for fasting. Allaah makes clear his revelations to humans so that they may become righteous (faithful to the will of Allaah).

 

Quran 2:188 Koran 2:188 Verse 2:188 Ayah 2:188 Ayat 2:188 Aya 2:188 Do not consume (use) each other’s wealth unjustly (by theft or in extortion by unlawfully obtaining money, property or services) nor send it (as corruption in bribery) to rulers (judges) to help you to sinfully consume (use) another person’s wealth, when you know (it is illegal).

 

Quran 2:189 Koran 2:189 Verse 2:189 Ayah 2:189 Ayat 2:189 Aya 2:189 They ask you (Prophet Muhammad) about (what are) the new Moons. Say, these are signs to mark fixed periods of time for (the affairs of) humans and for the pilgrimage. It is not righteous for you to enter the houses from the back (door) but righteous (is the person) who fears Allaah. So enter houses through their proper doors and fear Allaah so that you may be successful (in the hereafter with the correct faith in Allaah).

 

Quran 2:190 Koran 2:190 Verse 2:190 Ayah 2:190 Ayat 2:190 Aya 2:190 And fight in the way of Allaah (by protecting every innocent life so that you only fight) those who fight you (meaning fight people who are fighting you. It is illegal to kill people who are not fighting such as people who are in places of worship in Quran 2:114 and Quran 22:40. Fight in the Quran never means fight people who are not fighting you and fight in the Quran never means fighting civilians and fight in the Quran never means fighting innocent people and fight in the Quran never means fighting unarmed children or unarmed women or unarmed men who are not fighting you and fight in the Quran never means fighting people only because of their nationality or only because of their religion and fight in the Quran never means fighting people who do not wish to fight you or who surrender to you and fight in the Quran never means fighting people with whom you have a peace treaty unless the peace treaty has been violated and cancelled) and do not go over the legal limits (that Allaah has imposed on you in Quran 4:93 where Allaah promises Hell Jahannam forever to the Muslim who kills one innocent Muslim and Quran 5:32 where Allaah in the hereafter will judge the killing of one innocent Muslim or the killing of one innocent non Muslim as equal to the crime of killing all mankind). Allaah does not like the transgressors (meaning people who make actions that Allaah has made illegal for example it is illegal to kill people who are not fighting such as people who are in places of worship in Quran 2:114 and Quran 22:40. See Quran 2:114, Quran 2:190, Quran 2:191, Quran 2:192, Quran 2:193, Quran 2:217, Quran 4:93, Quran 5:32, Quran 5:33, Quran 5:34, Quran 9:28, Quran 9:29, Quran 22:39, and Quran 22:40). 

Comment 1. Forgive the disbelievers.

Quran 45:14 Verse 45:14 Say (Prophet Muhammad) to those who believe (in Allaah that) they (should) forgive those who do not expect the Days of Allaah (in the hereafter, meaning forgive the disbelievers, forgive the non believers, forgive the stone idol worshippers in Makkah, forgive the people who do not believe in Allaah) so that He (Allaah) may reward (the righteous) people for what they earn (in reward for the hereafter by obeying Allaah’s command that the people who believe in Allaah should forgive the people who do not believe in Allaah so that you forgive the disbelievers in your life in the same way that you wish Allaah to forgive you in the next life in the hereafter).

 

Quran 60:7 Verse 60:7 It may be that Allaah shall put love between you and those with whom you have been enemies (through a peace treaty or with people from the enemy coming to Allaah or with people from the enemy not opposing Allaah). Allaah is mighty, forgiving and merciful.

 

Quran 60:8 Verse 60:8 Allaah does not forbid you from those (people) who do not fight against you because of your religion and did not drive you out from your homes. You should show them kindness and deal justly with them. Allaah loves those who act justly.

 

Verses that Allaah revealed in the Quran during a time of war with stone idol worshippers in Mecca, Arabia today Makkah Saudi Arabia do not cancel the revelations Allaah revealed earlier in the Quran just as the verses that Allaah revealed in the Torah Taurat during a time of war with stone idol worshippers in Canaan today Israel and Palestine do not cancel the revelations Allaah revealed earlier in the Torah Taurat.

All of Allaah’s verses carry a message of wisdom for humankind.

Some verses give guidance in times of war and other verses give guidance in times of peace.

The correct interpretation of each verse in the Books of Allaah gives knowledge and wisdom and guidance to whoever Allaah wills.

See Quran 9:5 comment in Quran chapter 9.

 

Quran 2:191 Koran 2:191 Verse 2:191 Ayah 2:191 Ayat 2:191 Aya 2:191 And kill them (in battle meaning the stone idol worshippers in Makkah as explained in Quran 22:39 and Quran 22:40) wherever you find them (killing you in battle meaning fight people who are fighting you as explained in Quran 2:190. It is illegal to kill people who are not fighting such as people who are in places of worship in Quran 2:114 and Quran 22:40. Fight in the Quran never means fight people who are not fighting you and fight in the Quran never means fighting civilians and fight in the Quran never means fighting innocent people and fight in the Quran never means fighting unarmed children or unarmed women or unarmed men who are not fighting you and fight in the Quran never means fighting people only because of their nationality or only because of their religion and fight in the Quran never means fighting people who do not wish to fight you or who surrender to you and fight in the Quran never means fighting people with whom you have a peace treaty unless the peace treaty has been violated and cancelled) and drive them out from wherever they drove you out (to reclaim your territory). Oppression (meaning the persecution of Muslims by the stone idol worshippers in Makkah only because Muslims say “Allaah is my Lord” in Quran 22:39 and Quran 22:40 needs to be opposed because if Muslims do not fight against the oppression of their religion then Quran 2:217 explains that the stone idol worshippers of Makkah shall continue fighting Muslims until they turn Muslims away from their faith in Allaah if they can and the result) is worse than the killing (in battle against the oppression of religion because Quran 2:217 explains that those among the Muslims who die and had returned to stone idol worship shall be in the fire of Hell Jahannam meaning the oppression of religion in the time of the stone idol worshippers in Makkah 1400 years ago needed to be removed and replaced by the guidance of Quran 2:256 “There is no compulsion in religion …” meaning religion must come voluntarily from the human heart and not from the fear of humans or by force from Muslims or by force from stone idol worshippers). Do not fight them (the stone idol worshippers in Makkah) near the Sacred Mosque (“Sacred Mosque” is Al-Masjid Al-Haraam in Makkah because this is Holy ground) unless they fight you in it (first). Then If they (the stone idol worshippers in Makkah) fight you (there first) then you can kill them (there in battle like they are killing you there in battle).This is the reward for the disbelievers (meaning for the stone idol worshippers in Makkah if they persecute and fight against Muslims without a just cause. See Quran 2:114, Quran 2:190, Quran 2:191, Quran 2:192, Quran 2:193, Quran 2:217, Quran 4:93, Quran 5:32, Quran 5:33, Quran 5:34, Quran 9:28, Quran 9:29, Quran 22:39, and Quran 22:40).

Comment 1. When does Allaah not support Muslims?

Quran 2:190 Verse 2:190 And fight in the cause of Allaah (the cause of righteousness and not for your own selfish causes) ..."

Quran 2:190 Verse 2:190 "... do not go over the legal limits (that Allaah has imposed on you). ..."

Quran 2:190 Verse 2:190 "... Allaah does not like people who make actions that He (Allaah) has made illegal (it is illegal to kill people who are not fighting such as women and children). 

Quran 9.36 Verse 9.36 "... know that Allaah is with those who restrain themselves (from going over the legal limits allowed by Allaah during war, for example it is illegal to kill people who are not fighting such as women and children and men).

See Quran 2:30 and 2:179 comments.

 

Comment 2. Those who do not understand that the Quran has verses of history that include history about fighting translate the Quran as if those commands are for me and you to fight today. 

No those are not commands for me and you to fight today.

They are commands given by Allaah to Prophet Muhammad addressed to those people who lived in the time of the prophet 1400 years ago.

We need to know that the verses about fighting are connected to issues that occurred in history.

See Quran 9:5 comment in Quran chapter 9.

 

Quran 2:192 Koran 2:192 Verse 2:192 Ayah 2:192 Ayat 2:192 Aya 2:192 Then if they (the stone idol worshippers in Makkah) cease (stop fighting), (then you stop fighting. See Quran 2:114, Quran 2:190, Quran 2:191, Quran 2:192, Quran 2:193, Quran 2:217, Quran 4:93, Quran 5:32, Quran 5:33, Quran 5:34, Quran 9:28, Quran 9:29, Quran 22:39, and Quran 22:40). Allaah is forgiving and Most Merciful. 

Note 1. See Quran 9:5 comment in Quran chapter 9.

 

Quran 2:193 Koran 2:193 Verse 2:193 Ayah 2:193 Ayat 2:193 Aya 2:193 And fight them (the stone idol worshippers in Makkah meaning fight people who are fighting you. It is illegal to kill people who are not fighting such as people who are in places of worship in Quran 2:114 and Quran 22:40. Fight in the Quran never means fight people who are not fighting you and fight in the Quran never means fighting civilians and fight in the Quran never means fighting innocent people and fight in the Quran never means fighting unarmed children or unarmed women or unarmed men who are not fighting you and fight in the Quran never means fighting people only because of their nationality or only because of their religion and fight in the Quran never means fighting people who do not wish to fight you or who surrender to you and fight in the Quran never means fighting people with whom you have a peace treaty unless the peace treaty has been violated and cancelled. See Quran 9:28 and Quran 9:29) until there is no oppression (meaning persecution of Muslims by the stone idol worshippers) and (the Kabah in Makkah) becomes the (symbol of the) religion for Allaah (and not the symbol of stone idol worship). Then if they (the stone idol worshippers in Makkah) cease (stop fighting) then (you stop fighting and let there be) no hostility (no fighting and no bad feelings towards the stone idol worshippers for what they did to Muslims in the past) except against (those who continue to be) the oppressors (meaning those stone idol worshippers who continue persecuting Muslims only because of their religion. See Quran 2:114, Quran 2:190, Quran 2:191, Quran 2:192, Quran 2:193, Quran 2:217, Quran 4:93, Quran 5:32, Quran 5:33, Quran 5:34, Quran 9:28, Quran 9:29, Quran 22:39, and Quran 22:40).

Comment 1. Those who do not understand that the Quran has verses of history that include history about fighting translate the Quran as if those commands are for me and you to fight today. 

No those are not commands for me and you to fight today.

They are commands given by Allaah to Prophet Muhammad addressed to those people who lived in the time of the prophet 1400 years ago.

We need to know that the verses about fighting are connected to issues that occurred in history.

See Quran 9:5 comment in Quran chapter 9.

 

Quran 2:194 Koran 2:194 Verse 2:194 Ayah 2:194 Ayat 2:194 Aya 2:194 The sacred month is for the sacred month (when humans do only sacred things in the sacred month), and for all violations (in the sacred month which is only for sacred things) is (the law of) legal retaliation (whose purpose is to save life by acting as a deterrent against evil actions). Then whoever transgressed on you (in the sacred month for example to fight against you) then you may transgress on him in the same manner (meaning you may respond by also fighting them see Quran 2:217). And fear Allaah and know that Allaah is with those who fear (Allaah).

Note 1. See Quran 9:5 comment in Quran chapter 9.

 

Quran 2:195 Koran 2:195 Verse 2:195 Ayah 2:195 Ayat 2:195 Aya 2:195 And spend (time, property and wealth) in the way of Allaah (by doing good in this world), and do not throw (yourself) into destruction (of Hell Jahannam in the hereafter by doing evil in this world). Do good (things in this world), indeed, Allaah loves the good-doers.

Comment 1. Allaah loves those who do good.

Quran 4:93 Verse 4:93 Whoever kills a believer (in Allaah) intentionally (meaning whoever among the Muslims kills a believer intentionally, see Quran 4:92 which is the punishment for a Muslim who unintentionally killed a Muslim) then his recompense (result) is Hell Jahannam, staying in it forever and Allaah's wrath will fall on him and He (Allaah will) curse him and He (Allaah) has prepared for him a great punishment (because whoever intentionally kills one innocent person Muslim or non Muslim it is as if that person killed all of humankind in the judgement of Allaah see Quran 5:32. Quran 6:158 confirms that "... belief in Allaah and the Day of Resurrection and Judgement shall not help any soul …. if in belief he or she did not earn good by doing righteous deeds in their life ...." meaning belief in Allaah without doing good deeds is a false belief in Allaah meaning belief in Allaah with good deeds is true belief in Allaah).

 

Quran 6:151 Verse 6:151 "...And that you do not kill a person because Allaah has forbidden killing except in the matter of (legal) justice. He (Allaah) has commanded this for you so that you may understand (the law of Allaah). 

 

Quran 2:196 Koran 2:196 Verse 2:196 Ayah 2:196 Ayat 2:196 Aya 2:196 And complete the Hajj (the major annual pilgrimage to Makkah) and the Umra Umrah (the minor pilgrimage that is made anytime to Makkah) for Allaah. But if you are prevented (from reaching Makkah) then offer whatever sacrificial animal (like a camel, cow or sheep) can be easily obtained. And do not shave your heads until the sacrificial animal reaches its destination (the place of sacrifice in Makkah or the place where travel to Makkah has been prevented). And if any of you is ill or has an ailment on his head (preventing shaving), then (instead of shaving) compensate by fasting (for 3 days), or give charity (such as feeding 6 poor people) or offer sacrifice (of one sheep). Then when you are secure (in Makkah after whatever prevented your journey has been overcome and if you reach Makkah before the Hajj) then whoever takes advantage of this opportunity to perform Umra Umrah (the minor pilgrimage that is made anytime to Makkah) shall offer the sacrifice that he can afford. But if you have nothing (to sacrifice) then fast for three days during the pilgrimage and for seven days on your return (home), making ten days in all. This is for those whose family do not live near the Sacred Mosque (“Sacred Mosque” is l-masjidi l-harami, Al-Masjid Al-Haraam in Makkah). And fear Allaah and know that Allaah is strict in retribution (meaning in punishment for wrong doing).

 

Quran 2:197 Koran 2:197 Verse 2:197 Ayah 2:197 Ayat 2:197 Aya 2:197 The months of Hajj (when pilgrims travel on the 11th month and 12th month to Hajj the major annual pilgrimage in Makkah held on the 8th to 12th Dhu al-Hijjah which is the twelfth and last month in the Islamic calendar) is well known (throughout Arabia today Saudi Arabia). Whoever undertakes the Hajj in those times should have no sexual relations and no wickedness and no quarrelling during the Hajj (the major annual pilgrimage to Makkah). And whatever good you do Allaah knowns it. And take provisions (with you for the journey) but the best (provision to take) is righteousness. And fear Me (Allaah) O men (people) of understanding.

 

Quran 2:198 Koran 2:198 Verse 2:198 Ayah 2:198 Ayat 2:198 Aya 2:198 There is no sin on you if you seek the bounty from your Lord (Allaah during pilgrimage by trading). And when you depart from (Mount) Arafat then remember Allaah (by thanking Allaah in prayers and asking for forgiveness) near the sacred monument (“the Sacred Monument” is l-mashʿari l-harami, Mashar al-Haram Mash’ar-il Haram where pilgrims stay one night in the open which is a landmark of Muzdalifah. Muzdalifah is located almost midway between Mina and Arafat. Al-Mash'ar Al-Haraam is the place between the two mountains of Muzdalifah, from the narrow passage between the last two mountains before entering Makkah for those coming from Mount Arafah and the valley of Muhassir). Remember Him (Allaah) because He (Allaah) guided you (to the right path) whereas before you were one of those (stone idol worshippers) who went astray (on the wrong path).

 

Quran 2:199 Koran 2:199 Verse 2:199 Ayah 2:199 Ayat 2:199 Aya 2:199 Then depart from wherever the people depart and ask for the forgiveness of Allaah. Indeed, Allaah is Most Forgiving and Most Merciful.

 

Quran 2:200 Koran 2:200 Verse 2:200 Ayah 2:200 Ayat 2:200 Aya 2:200 When you have completed your acts of worship then remember Allaah (in praise) as you remember your forefathers or with greater remembrance. And from the people who say, "Our Lord (Allaah), grant us (this and this) in the world." For him is no share (of reward in Paradise Jannah) in the hereafter.

 

Quran 2:201 Koran 2:201 Verse 2:201 Ayah 2:201 Ayat 2:201 Aya 2:201 And from those who say, “Our Lord (Allaah), grant us good in the world and good in the hereafter and save us from the punishment of the fire.”

 

Quran 2:202 Koran 2:202 Verse 2:202 Ayah 2:202 Ayat 2:202 Aya 2:202 For them is a share (of reward in Paradise Jannah in the hereafter) for what they have earned (of the good they did in this world). And Allaah is swift to account (for what you do).

 

Quran 2:203 Koran 2:203 Verse 2:203 Ayah 2:203 Ayat 2:203 Aya 2:203 And remember Allaah during the appointed days (of the pilgrimage). Then if he leaves (from Mina to Makkah) in two days (12th or the 13th of Dhul-Hijjah) there is no sin on him and whoever delays (their departure) then there is no sin on him who fears (Allaah). Fear Allaah and know that you shall be gathered to Him (Allaah, in the hereafter).

 

Quran 2:204 Koran 2:204 Verse 2:204 Ayah 2:204 Ayat 2:204 Aya 2:204 And of the people there is a person (Akhnas bin Shariq of Makkah, Arabia, a hypocrite who says one thing but believes the opposite) whose speech in this worldly life may please you (Prophet Muhammad) and he calls Allaah to witness what is in his heart, yet he is the most quarrelsome of the opponents (with no faith in Allaah). –

Comment 1. Quran 2:204 refers to a hypocrite who said he believed Prophet Muhammad but he really did not believe. He was Akhnas bin Shariq one of the leaders and hypocrites of the stone idol worshippers in Makkah, Arabia).

 

Quran 2:205 Koran 2:205 Verse 2:205 Ayah 2:205 Ayat 2:205 Aya 2:205 And when he (Akhnas bin Shariq of Makkah, Arabia, a hypocrite who says one thing but believes the opposite of what he said) goes away (from you Prophet Muhammad), his effort in the land is to misbehave and to destroy the crops and the cattle. Allaah does not like mischief-makers. –

 

Quran 2:206 Koran 2:206 Verse 2:206 Ayah 2:206 Ayat 2:206 Aya 2:206 When it is said to him (Akhnas bin Shariq of Mecca, Arabia, the hypocrite), "Fear and obey Allaah", he is led by arrogance to (make more) sin (wrong doing). Hell is an evil resting-place that shall be sufficient for him (in the hereafter).

 

Quran 2:207 Koran 2:207 Verse 2:207 Ayah 2:207 Ayat 2:207 Aya 2:207 And there is the type of man (Suhayb ibn Sinan) who would sell himself (by giving his life, time and wealth) to earn the pleasure of Allaah, and Allaah is full of kindness to the servants (of Allaah).

Comment 1. Suhayb ibn Sinan (Suhayb bin Sinan, Suhayb ibn Sinan al-Rumi, Suhayb bin Sinan al-Rumi) 35 BH – 35 AH (587 – 658 CE, 587 – 658 AD) immigrated to the safety of Yathrib Arabia later known as Medina Arabia today Madinah Saudi Arabia to escape the stone idol worshippers in Makkah Arabia who were persecuting Muslims because they believed in one Allaah and rejected returning to stone idol worship).

 

Quran 2:208 Koran 2:208 Verse 2:208 Ayah 2:208 Ayat 2:208 Aya 2:208 All you who believe, come, all of you, into submission (to Allaah) and do not follow the footsteps of the devil (Satan Shaitan). He (Satan Shaitan) is for you (humans) your clear enemy.

 

Quran 2:209 Koran 2:209 Verse 2:209 Ayah 2:209 Ayat 2:209 Aya 2:209 If you backslide (go back to stone idol worship and disbelief in Allaah) after the clear (signs of the Quran and Prophet Muhammad) have come to you then know that Allaah is all-mighty and all-wise (meaning remember that Allaah shall be your judge in the hereafter). 

Comment 1. Punishment for rejecting Allaah is only for Allaah to give.

Punishment for rejecting Allaah is not for humans to give in this world because Allaah has given every human freedom to choose their belief. 

In the Quran Allaah ordered freedom of religious belief 1400 years before the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

However incorrect understanding of the Quran and the hadith can cause wrongful killing of people in the name of Allaah and in the name of human hadith stories.

 

Quran 2:210 Koran 2:210 Verse 2:210 Ayah 2:210 Ayat 2:210 Aya 2:210 Do they (the stone idol worshippers in Makkah who do not enter Islam, meaning, do those stone idol worshippers who do not willingly submit to the will of Allaah) then wait for anything other than that Allaah should come to them in the shadows of the clouds with the angels? Then the case (of who has faith in Allaah) would have already been decided (because it would be the Day of Resurrection and Judgement). And to Allaah return all matters (for judgment on that Day).

Comment 1. Allaah will come in the shadows of the clouds with the angels on the Day of Judgement.

This is the time when Prophet Jesus Isa and all other humans shall be resurrected.

The second coming of Jesus Isa and the second coming of every other created human will occur at the same time.

In the Gospel Injil and the Koran Quran the return of Prophet Jesus Isa is on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement.

See 1. Quran 4:157 and Quran 4:158 comments in Quran chapter 4.

See 2. Quran 29:57 comments in Quran chapter 29.

See 3. Quran 79:7 comments in Quran chapter 79.

 

Quran 2:211 Koran 2:211 Verse 2:211 Ayah 2:211 Ayat 2:211 Aya 2:211 (Stone idol worshippers in Makkah Arabia) ask the Children of Israel (in Yathrib Arabia) how many clear signs and revelations We (Allaah) gave them. Whoever changes Allaah’s blessing after it had come to him, (meaning whoever rejects the religion of Allaah who created every creation and accepts disbelief and stone idol worship), then surely, Allaah shall be severe in punishment (in the hereafter).

Comment 1. See Quran 2:210 comments.

 

Quran 2:212 Koran 2:212 Verse 2:212 Ayah 2:212 Ayat 2:212 Aya 2:212 The life of this world is made (to appear) beautiful (and happy) for those (idol worshippers of Makkah) with no faith in Allaah and they mock at those who have faith in Allaah (such as Bilal bin Ribah and Ammar bin Yasir and Suhayb al-Rumi who are among the poor Muslim people of Makkah). But those who obey Allaah’s orders and keep away from what He (Allaah) has forbidden shall be (in reward) above them (the stone idol worshippers) on the Day of Resurrection. And Allaah gives (everything) to whom He (Allaah) wills without limit.

Comment 1. Among the first Muslims were the poor people in Makkah who were persecuted by the wealthy stone idol worshippers for believing in one Allaah.

Some of the believers in Allaah included:

Suhayb bin Sinan (Suhayb ibn Sinan, Suhayb ibn Sinan al-Rumi, Suhayb bin Sinan al-Rumi 35 BH – 35 AH (587 – 658 CE, 587 – 658 AD).

Bilal bin Ribah (Bilal ibn Ribah, Bilal al-Habashi, Bilal the Ethiopian 42 BH – 19 AH (580 – 640 CE, 580 – 640 AD).

Ammar bin Yasir (Ammar ibn Yasir 53 BH – 36 AH, (570 – 657 CE, 570 – 657 AD).

Comment 2. Forgive your enemy (Quran 41:34 – 41:36 and Quran 42:43. Allaah will forgive even those who mocked Prophet Muhammad and those who plotted to kill Prophet Muhammad if they repent and ask Allaah for forgiveness in Quran 8:30 – 8:33)

See Quran 2:13 comment.

 

Quran 2:213 Koran 2:213 Verse 2:213 Ayah 2:213 Ayat 2:213 Aya 2:213 Humans were one community (before they separated), then Allaah sent the prophets with the good news (of the resurrection of life in Paradise for the righteous) and warnings (of the resurrection of life in Hell fire for the evil doers) and sent down with them the Scripture (the Torah Taurat and later the Gospel Injil) with the truth to judge between people in the matters where they differed. But the people (the Jews and the Christians) who were given it (the revelations from Allaah) were the ones who disagreed about it (its meanings) after the clear revelations came to them because of the selfish envy between them (envy that led each of them to think they were the more righteous). Allaah by His (Allaah’s) grace guided those with faith in Allaah to the truth concerning matters over which they differed. Allaah guides whom He (Allaah) wills to the straight path (the right path, the correct path).

 

Quran 2:214 Koran 2:214 Verse 2:214 Ayah 2:214 Ayat 2:214 Aya 2:214 Or do you think that you shall enter Paradise without such (trials and tests from Allaah) as came to those who passed away before you? They (those who passed away before you) encountered suffering and adversity, and were so shaken in spirit until the Messenger (of Allaah) and those of faith who were with him cried, "When shall the help of Allaah come?" Truly, help from Allaah is always near. 

Note 1. "When shall the help of Allaah come?" shows trust in Allaah.

 

Quran 2:215 Koran 2:215 Verse 2:215 Ayah 2:215 Ayat 2:215 Aya 2:215 They (the people with faith in Allaah) ask you (Prophet Muhammad) what they should give (in charity?) Say, whatever you spend of good must be for parents, relations, orphans, the needy, the travelers and whatever you do of good deeds, truly, Allaah is aware of it.

 

Quran 2:216 Koran 2:216 Verse 2:216 Ayah 2:216 Ayat 2:216 Aya 2:216 Fighting is prescribed for you (meaning fighting people who are fighting you. It is illegal to kill people who are not fighting such as people who are in places of worship in Quran 2:114 and Quran 22:40. Fight in the Quran never means fight people who are not fighting you and fight in the Quran never means fighting civilians and fight in the Quran never means fighting innocent people and fight in the Quran never means fighting unarmed children or unarmed women or unarmed men who are not fighting you and fight in the Quran never means fighting people only because of their nationality or only because of their religion and fight in the Quran never means fighting people who do not wish to fight you or who surrender to you and fight in the Quran never means fighting people with whom you have a peace treaty unless the peace treaty has been violated and cancelled) while it is hateful to you (because for 13 years Muslims in Makkah have patiently and peacefully accepted the persecution of their religion from the stone idol worshippers). It is possible that you dislike a thing (such as fighting) which is good for you (so that you are free from the persecution of the stone idol worshippers in Makkah) and that you love a thing (such as not fighting) which is bad for you (as shown by the killing and torture of Muslims in Makkah because they refused to return to stone idol worship and the boycott and exile of Muslims who were forced to live in a barren land near Makkah and the fleeing of Muslims from Makkah to Ethiopia and the fleeing of Prophet Muhammad from Makkah to Yathib Madinah all of this only because Muslims said “Our Lord is Allaah”). Allaah knows (things) while you do not know (regarding what would happen to you if you do not fight the stone idol worshippers in Makkah Arabia. Quran 2:217 explains that the stone idol worshippers of Makkah shall continue fighting Muslims until they turn Muslims away from their faith in Allaah if the can and return Muslims to the worship of stone statues if they can).

Comments 1: Those who do not understand that the Quran has verses of history that include history about fighting translate the Quran as if those commands are for me and you to fight today. 

No those are not commands for me and you to fight today.

They are commands given by Allaah to Prophet Muhammad addressed to those people who lived in the time of the prophet 1400 years ago.

We need to know that the verses about fighting are connected to issues that occurred in history.

See Quran 9:5 comment in Quran chapter 9.

 

Quran 2:217 Koran 2:217 Verse 2:217 Ayah 2:217 Ayat 2:217 Aya 2:217 They (the people with faith in Allaah) ask you (Prophet Muhammad, what to do) concerning fighting in the sacred month (see Quran 2:194). Say, "Fighting (meaning fighting people who are fighting you. It is illegal to kill people who are not fighting such as people who are in places of worship in Quran 2:114 and Quran 22:40. Fight in the Quran never means fight people who are not fighting you and fight in the Quran never means fighting civilians and fight in the Quran never means fighting innocent people and fight in the Quran never means fighting unarmed children or unarmed women or unarmed men who are not fighting you and fight in the Quran never means fighting people only because of their nationality or only because of their religion and fight in the Quran never means fighting people who do not wish to fight you or who surrender to you and fight in the Quran never means fighting people with whom you have a peace treaty unless the peace treaty has been violated and cancelled) in it (the sacred month) is a great sin but a bigger sin in the sight of Allaah (committed by the stone idol worshippers in Makkah) is to hinder people from the way of Allaah and not to believe in Him (Allaah the creator of every creation) and to (block access to) the sacred Mosque (“and the sacred Mosque” is wal-masjidi, the Kabah in Makkah) and to drive people out from it (the holy site)." Oppression (meaning the persecution of Muslims by the stone idol worshippers in Makkah only because Muslims say “Allaah is my Lord” in Quran 22:39 and Quran 22:40 needs to be opposed because if Muslims do not fight against the oppression of their religion then Quran 2:217 explains that the stone idol worshippers of Makkah shall continue fighting Muslims until they turn Muslims away from their faith in Allaah if they can and the result) is a greater (disaster) than killing (in battle against the oppression of religion because Quran 2:217 explains that those among the Muslims who die and had returned to stone idol worship shall be in the fire of Hell Jahannam meaning the oppression of religion in the time of the stone idol worshippers in Makkah 1400 years ago needed to be removed and replaced by the guidance of Quran 2:256 “There is no compulsion in religion …” meaning religion must come voluntarily from the human heart and not from the fear of humans or by force from Muslims or by force from stone idol worshippers). They (the stone idol worshippers of Makkah) shall continue fighting you until they turn you away from your faith in Allaah if they can. And those of you who turn away from your faith (in Allaah) and die disbelieving (in Allaah), will have wasted their deeds in this life and in the next (life) and shall live in fire forever (in the hereafter as explained in Quran 2:191 where the result of oppression of religion by the stone idol worshippers in Makkah is worse than the killing in battle against the oppression of religion and in Quran 2:217 where oppression of religion by the stone idol worshippers in Makkah results is a greater disaster than killing in battle against the oppression of religion meaning the oppression of religion in the time of the stone idol worshippers in Makkah 1400 years ago needed to be removed and replaced by the guidance of Quran 2:256 “There is no compulsion in religion …” meaning religion must come voluntarily from the human heart and not from the fear of humans or by force from Muslims or by force from stone idol worshippers. See Quran 2:114, Quran 2:190, Quran 2:191, Quran 2:192, Quran 2:193, Quran 2:217, Quran 4:93, Quran 5:32, Quran 5:33, Quran 5:34, Quran 9:28, Quran 9:29, Quran 22:39, and Quran 22:40). 

Comment 1. Why did Allaah order Prophet Muhammad and the Muslims to fight 1400 years ago?

Quran 2:216 Verse 2:216 "..., Allaah knows things that you do not know (regarding what would happen to you if you did not fight the stone idol worshippers in Makkah Arabia).

Quran 2:217 Verse 2:217 "... They (the stone idol worshippers of Makkah) shall continue fighting you until they turn you away from your faith in Allaah if they can. And those of you who turn away from your faith (in Allaah) and die disbelieving (in Allaah), will have wasted their deeds in this life and in the next (life) and shall live in fire forever (in the hereafter).

 

Quran 2:218 Koran 2:218 Verse 2:218 Ayah 2:218 Ayat 2:218 Aya 2:218 Those who have faith (in Allaah) and those who emigrated (from Makkah to Yathrib when they fled their homes to escape the persecution of the stone idol worshippers in Makkah) and struggled in the path of Allaah (the path of righteousness), they have the hope of the mercy of Allaah and Allaah is most forgiving and Most Merciful. 

Comment 1. What was the result of the stone idol worshippers persecution of Muslims?

Many Muslims fled the persecution of the stone idol worshippers by emigrating from Makkah to Yathrib Arabia later called Medina Arabia today Madinah Saudi Arabia.

 

Quran 2:219 Koran 2:219 Verse 2:219 Ayah 2:219 Ayat 2:219 Aya 2:219 They (the people with faith in Allaah) ask you (Prophet Muhammad, what to do) concerning the drinking of alcohol and gambling? Say, "In them (alcohol and gambling) is great sin and some profit for humans but the sin is greater than the profit." (It is better for you not to drink alcohol and not to gamble because alcohol and gambling give more disadvantage than benefit in the hereafter). They (the people with faith in Allaah) ask you (Prophet Muhammad) how much they are to spend (in charity). Say, "What is beyond your needs (meaning spend in charity from the resources that you do not need)." Thus Allaah makes clear to you His (Allaah’s) revelations for you to consider (regarding this worldly life and the hereafter).

Comment 1. Drinking alcohol in Islam.

1. Verses about alcohol in the Quran are not abrogated.

Quran 2:219 reveals that there are some benefits in alcohol and today alcohol is widely used in medicines and these benefits are not prohibited to the Muslim.. 

Verses in the Quran which allow alcohol allow it today when alcohol is a benefit like in medicines today.

Many medicines contain alcohol in solutions that are drunk and they are also in tablets that are swallowed and Muslims are not forbidden from those benefits meaning the drinking of alcohol is not forbidden when it is for medical reasons.

Verses in the Quran that do not allow alcohol is when the drinking of alcohol does more harm that good as seen in road deaths caused by drink driving accidents today.


2. Abstaining from alcoholic drink is an appeal to common sense.

In early revelations of the Quran is guidance and reasons against drinking alcohol and the final revelation says in Quran 5:90 – 5:91 for these reasons you should not drink alcohol.

See Quran 2:219, Quran 4:43 and Quran 5:90 – 5:91.


3. In Quran 5:48 Allaah explained that He gave different laws to the different communities of Allaah meaning alcohol is not forbidden to Jews in the Torah Taurat or to Christians in the Gospel Injil.

Alcohol is only forbidden to Muslims in the Quran in the same way as only the Jews are commanded to observe the Sabbath Day.

Muslims do not observe the Sabbath Day.

What is forbidden to Jews and Christians and Muslims is contained in their Books and only applies to them and not to the other communities of Allaah.


 

Quran 2:220 Koran 2:220 Verse 2:220 Ayah 2:220 Ayat 2:220 Aya 2:220 Regarding (questions about) this worldly life and the hereafter, they (the people with faith in Allaah) ask you (Prophet Muhammad, what to do) concerning orphans. Say, "The best thing to do is what is good for them and associate with them as if they are your brothers. Allaah knows the person who intends misbehaviour (in the management of the property of an orphan) from the person who intends good (by keeping good management of the property of an orphan). And if Allaah had wished, He (Allaah) could have put you into difficulties (for example you might have been made an orphan), Allaah is indeed all mighty and all wise (in knowing all things)." 

 

Quran 2:221 Koran 2:221 Verse 2:221 Ayah 2:221 Ayat 2:221 Aya 2:221 Do not marry polytheistic women (like the stone idol worshipping women who believe in more than one god) until they believe (Quran 47:19 “…there is no Allaah except Allaah” confirming Torah Exodus 20:2 “.... You shall have no other gods before Me Allaah” and confirming Gospel of Jesus Isa by Luke 4:8 “… You shall worship the Lord your Allaah, and him only shall you serve”), a slave woman (female slave) who believes (there is only one God as is taught in the Quran confirming what is in the Torah Taurat and in the Gospel Injil) is better than a polytheistic woman (like the stone idol worshipping women who believe in more than one God) even though she (the idol worshipper) might be attractive to you. And do not give in marriage (your women) to polytheistic men (like the stone idol worshipping men who believe in more than one God) until they believe (Quran 47:19 “…there is no Allaah except Allaah” confirming Torah Exodus 20:2 “.... You shall have no other gods before Me Allaah” and confirming Gospel of Jesus Isa by Luke 4:8 “… You shall worship the Lord your Allaah, and him only shall you serve”), a man slave (male slave) who believes (there is only one God as is taught in the Quran confirming what is in the Torah Taurat and in the Gospel Injil) is better than a polytheistic man (like the stone idol worshipping men who believe in more than one god) even though he (the idol worshipper) might be attractive to you. They (who believe in more than one god) invite you to the Fire (of punishment in the hereafter) but (those who do good deeds and believe Quran 47:19 “…there is no Allaah except Allaah” confirming Torah Exodus 20:2 “.... You shall have no other gods before Me Allaah” and confirming Gospel of Jesus Isa by Luke 4:8 “… You shall worship the Lord your Allaah, and him only shall you serve”) Allaah invites to Paradise and forgiveness by His permission (whomever He wills). And He (Allaah) makes clear His (Allaah’s) verses for the people so that they may take notice.

 

Quran 2:222 Koran 2:222 Verse 2:222 Ayah 2:222 Ayat 2:222 Aya 2:222 They (the people with faith in Allaah) ask you (Prophet Muhammad, what to do) concerning menstruation. Say, it is a (time of) mild suffering (for women) so withdraw (sexual intercourse) from women in menstruation and do not go to them (for sexual intercourse) until they are clean (when bleeding has stopped). When they are clean (bleeding has stopped) you may go to them (for sexual intercourse) as Allaah has ordained. Allaah loves those who turn to Him (Allaah) in repentance and loves those who keep themselves clean (by following Allaah’s guidance).

 

Quran 2:223 Koran 2:223 Verse 2:223 Ayah 2:223 Ayat 2:223 Aya 2:223 Your wives are like a field for you (to cultivate children) so approach your field when you like and send forth good for yourselves. And be conscience of Allaah and know that you shall meet Him (Allaah, in the Hereafter), and (Prophet Muhammad) give (this) good news (of the reality of the hereafter) to the believers.

  

Quran 2:224 Koran 2:224 Verse 2:224 Ayah 2:224 Ayat 2:224 Aya 2:224 Do not use (the name of) Allaah in your oaths to avoid doing good or being righteous or keeping peace among humans (in such wicked oaths), Allaah is all hearing and all knowing.

 

Quran 2:225 Koran 2:225 Verse 2:225 Ayah 2:225 Ayat 2:225 Aya 2:225 Allaah shall not punish you for what is unintended in your oaths (like saying “I swear by the name of Allaah” something spontaneously and unintentionally from a slip of the tongue) but (Allaah shall punish you) for the intention in your heart and He (Allaah) is forgiving and forbearing (of our mistakes). 

 

Quran 2:226 Koran 2:226 Verse 2:226 Ayah 2:226 Ayat 2:226 Aya 2:226 Those who swear to keep away from their wives (because they want to divorce them) wait for four months but if they change their mind (within the four months and decide not to divorce then they are not divorced) and truly Allaah is most forgiving and Most Merciful.

 

Quran 2:227 Koran 2:227 Verse 2:227 Ayah 2:227 Ayat 2:227 Aya 2:227 And if they decide to divorce then Allaah hears and knows all things.

 

Quran 2:228 Koran 2:228 Verse 2:228 Ayah 2:228 Ayat 2:228 Aya 2:228 And divorced women shall wait (in regard to marriage) for three menstrual periods (a period for women called Iddah) and it is not lawful for her to conceal what Allaah has created in her womb (if she is pregnant with a child and) if she believes in Allaah and the Last Day. In that case (where pregnancy is found during Iddah) her husband would do well to take her back if they desire reconciliation. And they (women) have rights (over their husbands in regards to living expenses etc.). Husband and wife have similar rights (regarding kindness, respect etc) and all is according to what is reasonable and men have a degree (of responsibility) above them (their wives, to care for their needs through his financial strength and to protect them through his physical strength) and Allaah is all mighty and all wise (in his rulings and all things).

 

Quran 2:229 Koran 2:229 Verse 2:229 Ayah 2:229 Ayat 2:229 Aya 2:229 Divorce is (still revocable by the husband when the word divorce has been said by the husband to the wife) two times, after which (there are two ways open for husbands), to either keep (their wives) honourably (by not speaking the word divorce a third time), or part with them in a decent way (after speaking the word divorce to her for a third time).  And it is not lawful for you (men) to take back (from your wives) any of your Mahr (bridal money given by the husband to his wife at the time of marriage) which you have given them, except when both parties fear that they would be unable to keep within the limits given (to them) by Allaah (such as to deal with each other on a fair basis in their marriage). If they fear that they would not be able to keep within the limits given by Allaah (to them to deal with each other on a fair basis in their marriage) then there is no sin on either of them if she freely gave back something for her divorce (such as the bridal money or a part of it to free herself from her husband). These are the laws given (to them) by Allaah so do not disobey them. And whoever disobeys the limits given (to them) by Allaah they are the unjust (wrong-doer).

 

Quran 2:230 Koran 2:230 Verse 2:230 Ayah 2:230 Ayat 2:230 Aya 2:230 So if a husband divorces his wife (after saying the word divorce a third time), he cannot, after that, marry her until after she has married another man and that man has divorced her. In that case there is no sin on either of them if they marry again provided they feel that they can keep the laws given (to them) by Allaah. Those are the limits given (to them) by Allaah which He (Allaah) makes clear to those who understand.

 

Quran 2:231 Koran 2:231 Verse 2:231 Ayah 2:231 Ayat 2:231 Aya 2:231 And when you divorce the women and they reach their (waiting) term (Iddah, the period of 4 months and 10 days which is half the length of a normal pregnancy to confirm she is not pregnant from her divorced husband) then retain them in a fair manner or release them in a fair manner. And do not retain them to hurt (them) so that you transgress. And do not take the verses of Allaah in jest, and remember Allaah’s favour on you (when Allaah gave you faith), and what is revealed to you in the Book (the Quran) and the wisdom, He (Allaah) instructs you with it. And fear Allaah and know that Allaah knows all things.

Comment 1. Forgive your enemy (Quran 41:34 – 41:36 and Quran 42:43. Allaah will forgive even those who mocked Prophet Muhammad and those who plotted to kill Prophet Muhammad if they repent and ask Allaah for forgiveness in Quran 8:30 – 8:33)

See Quran 2:13 comment.

 

Quran 2:232 Koran 2:232 Verse 2:232 Ayah 2:232 Ayat 2:232 Aya 2:232 And when you have divorced a woman and she has fulfilled the term of her prescribed period (Iddah, the period of 4 months and 10 days which is half the length of a normal pregnancy to confirm she is not pregnant from her divorced husband, after which she can marry so), do not prevent her from marrying other men if it is agree between them honourably. This warning is for those among you who believe in Allaah and the Last Day. This is both proper and right for you to do, surely Allaah knows that which you do not know (regarding your situation in the hereafter and the rewards for following the laws of Allaah).

 

Quran 2:233 Koran 2:233 Verse 2:233 Ayah 2:233 Ayat 2:233 Aya 2:233 (Both married and divorced) mothers may suckle (breastfeed) their babies for two whole years if they (the father) wish the period of suckling (breastfeeding) to be completed. The father of the child shall bear the cost of the mother's food and clothing on a reasonable basis. No person shall have a burden laid on him or her greater than he or she can bear. No mother shall be treated unfairly because of her child and no father shall be treated unfairly because of his child. And (if something happens to the father) then the responsibilities of the father are transferred to the (father's) heir. If they (husband and wife) both decide on weaning (slowly stopping suckling) by mutual consent (before the end of 2 years is completed) and after due consultation then there is no sin on them. And if they decide on a foster breastfeeding mother (wet nurse) for their children than there is no sin on them provided they pay (the foster mother) what they agreed (to give her) on reasonable terms. And fear Allaah and know that Allaah sees all that you do.

 

Quran 2:234 Koran 2:234 Verse 2:234 Ayah 2:234 Ayat 2:234 Aya 2:234 And those of you (men) who die and leave wives (widows) behind them, they (the wives) shall wait for four months and ten days (after the husbands death) and then when they have finished that time period (Iddah), there is no sin on you if they (the wives) marry. And Allaah is well aware of what you do.

 

Quran 2:235 Koran 2:235 Verse 2:235 Ayah 2:235 Ayat 2:235 Aya 2:235 And there is no sin on you to privately indicate a marriage proposal (to a widow during her Iddah) or if you keep (the proposal) concealed in your mind, Allaah knows that you are thinking about her, but do not make a promise of marriage with her in secret unless you speak in a proper manner. Do not make secret meetings with her except in good conversation. And do not consummate (your relationship with sexual intercourse) until the prescribed period for women (Iddah) is completed, Remember Allaah knows what is in your minds so be fearful of Him (Allaah) and know that Allaah is most forgiving and forbearing.

 

Quran 2:236 Koran 2:236 Verse 2:236 Ayah 2:236 Ayat 2:236 Aya 2:236 There is no sin on you if you divorce a woman before you have touched her (with sexual intercourse) and before deciding on the dower (Mahr, bridal money gift payment or amount given or agreed to give by the husband to his wife at the time of marriage). But then provide adequately for her (in alimony), the rich according to what he can afford and the poor according to what he can afford, as is befitting and reasonable. This is surely a duty for those who do good.

 

Quran 2:237 Koran 2:237 Verse 2:237 Ayah 2:237 Ayat 2:237 Aya 2:237 And if you divorce her before you have touched her (with sexual intercouse), but you have agreed on the dower (Mahr, bridal money gift payment or amount given or agreed to give by the husband to his wife at the time of marriage), then pay half of that (Mahr, bridal money gift payment) to her, unless she agrees to forego it (meaning - unless she does not want the dower, Mahr), or he (the husband), in whose hands is the marriage tie (meaning - the husband who is the one responsible for making the marriage proposal), agrees to forego (the legal half dower payment, the legal half Mahr payment) and give her the full dower (Mahr, bridal money gift payment). And (for you) to forego (the amount required by law and instead give her the full amount of dower, Mahr) is nearer to righteousness. And do not forget kindness between yourselves. Truly, Allaah sees all that you do.

 

Quran 2:238 Koran 2:238 Verse 2:238 Ayah 2:238 Ayat 2:238 Aya 2:238 Remember your (five daily) prayers (Fajr prayer at 4.50 am, Zuhr prayer at 12.30 pm, Asr prayer at 3.30 pm, Magrib prayer at 6 pm and Isha prayer at 7.30 pm depending on your location as mentioned in Quran 2:238, Quran 11:114, Quran 17:78, Quran 17:79, Quran 20:130, Quran 30:17, Quran 30:18, Quran 50:39 and Quran 50:40) especially the middle prayer (the Asr prayer is called the middle prayer because before it are the Fajr and Zuhr prayers and after it are the Magrib and Isha prayers) and pray in humble worship of Allaah. (This is the Asr prayer). 

Comment 1. Prayer in the Quran. Prayers in the Quran.

The five compulsory prayers in Islam are in Quran 20:130.

The not compulsory additional prayer is in Quran 17:79.

See prayers in Islam in Quran 2:238, Quran 11:114, Quran 17:78, Quran 17:79, Quran 20:130, Quran 30:17, Quran 30:18, Quran 50:39 and Quran 50:40.

 

Quran 2:239 Koran 2:239 Verse 2:239 Ayah 2:239 Ayat 2:239 Aya 2:239 If you fear (war or danger) then (say your prayers) on foot (as you are walking) or on horseback (as you are riding) and when you are in a safe place then remember Allaah (and pray) in the manner He (Allaah) has taught you and which you did not know before (when you were worshipping stone idols before Allaah revealed the Quran).

 

Quran 2:240 Koran 2:240 Verse 2:240 Ayah 2:240 Ayat 2:240 Aya 2:240 And those of you who die and leave behind wives should make a will (wasiyya) for their wives a provision for a year without driving them out (from the home) but if they (the wives) leave (the home voluntarily) then there is no blame on you for what they honourably do concerning themselves. And Allaah is all mighty and all wise.

Comment 1. See Quran 2:180 – 2:182, Quran 2:240, Quran 4:8, Quran 4:11, Quran 4:12, Quran 4:33, Quran 4:176 and Quran 5:106 – 5:107.

 

Quran 2:241 Koran 2:241 Verse 2:241 Ayah 2:241 Ayat 2:241 Aya 2:241 Making a fair provision (alimony) for women who are divorced is the duty of those who are righteous. 

 

Quran 2:242 Koran 2:242 Verse 2:242 Ayah 2:242 Ayat 2:241 Aya 2:241 Thus Allaah makes clear His (Allaah’s) revelations to you, in order that you may understand (what is right and what is wrong).

 

Quran 2:243 Koran 2:243 Verse 2:243 Ayah 2:243 Ayat 2:243 Aya 2:243 Have you (Prophet Muhammad) not considered the days of old when thousands (of the people of the children of Israel) who feared death left their homes and Allaah said to them, “Die”, and then He (Allaah) brought them back to life (as Prophet Ezekiel watched). Allaah is the Lord of kindness to humans but most humans are not grateful (to Allaah). –

Comment 1. In the Tanakh Jewish scripture Allaah brought the dead children of Israel back to life in the story of Prophet Ezekiel Zulkifl.

Ezekiel 37:1 The hand of the Lord (Allaah) was on me (Prophet Ezekiel), and the Lord (Allaah) carried me out in a spirit, and set me down in the midst of the valley, and it was full of bones;

Ezekiel 37:2 and He (Allaah) caused me (Prophet Ezekiel) to pass by them and I saw there were very many (bones) in the open valley and they were very dry.

Ezekiel 37:3 And He (Allaah) said to me, “Son of man, can these bones live?” And I (Prophet Ezekiel) answered, “O Lord Allaah, You know.”

Ezekiel 37:4 Then He (Allaah) said to me, 'Prophesy over these bones, and say to them, “O you dry bones, hear the word of the Lord (Allaah).

Ezekiel 37:5 The Lord Allaah said to these bones, “See how I (Allaah) shall cause breath to enter into you and you shall live.”

Ezekiel 37:6 “And I (Allaah) shall lay sinews on you and shall bring up flesh on you and cover you with skin and put breath in you and you shall live and you shall know that I am the Lord (Allaah).”

Ezekiel 37:7 So I (Prophet Ezekiel) prophesied as I was commanded and as I prophesied there was a noise and a commotion and the bones came together, bone to its bone.

Ezekiel 37:8 And I (Prophet Ezekiel) looked, and there were sinews on them (bones), and flesh came up and skin covered them above but there was no breath in them.

Ezekiel 37:9 Then He (Allaah) said to me (Prophet Ezekiel), “Prophesy to the breath, prophesy, son of man, and say to the breath”, The Lord Allaah said, “Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe on these slain (people) so that they may live.”

Ezekiel 37:10 So I (Prophet Ezekiel) prophesied as He (Allaah) commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up on their feet, an exceeding great (number) host (of people).

Ezekiel 37:11 Then He (Allaah) said to me, “Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel; look, they say, “Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost; we are clean cut off (from having a future generation that shall come after us).”

Ezekiel 37:12 Therefore prophesy, and say to them, The Lord Allaah said, Look, I (Allaah) shall open your graves and cause you to come up out of your graves, O My (Allaah’s) people; and I (Allaah) shall bring you into the land of Israel.

Ezekiel 37:13 And you shall know that I am the Lord (Allaah), when I (Allaah) have opened your graves and caused you to come up out of your graves, O My (Allaah’s) people.

Ezekiel 37:14 And I (Allaah) shall put My (Allaah’s) spirit in you, and you shall live, and I (Allaah) shall place you in your own land; and you shall know that I the Lord (Allaah) have spoken and performed it, said the Lord (Allaah).”

 

Quran 2:244 Koran 2:244 Verse 2:244 Ayah 2:244 Ayat 2:244 Aya 2:244 Then (have faith in Allaah and) fight in the cause of Allaah (righteously by doing what is good and rejecting what is bad, in a good way to promote Allaah, not for personal interests but for Allaah only), and know that Allaah is all hearing and all knowing.

 

Quran 2:245 Koran 2:245 Verse 2:245 Ayah 2:245 Ayat 2:245 Aya 2:245 Who shall give to Allaah a good gift (your faith) so that he may multiply it many times? It is Allaah who decreases or increases what you have (to test your faith in Allaah) and to Him (Allaah) you shall return (in the hereafter).

 

Quran 2:246 Koran 2:246 Verse 2:246 Ayah 2:246 Ayat 2:246 Aya 2:246 Have you not considered the leaders of the Children of Israel after (the time of) Prophet Moses Musa, when they (the children of Israel) said to a prophet of theirs (Prophet Samuel), "Appoint for us a king, so we may fight in the cause of Allaah (righteously by doing what is good and rejecting what is bad, in a good way to promote Allaah, not for personal interests but for Allaah only). Their Prophet (Prophet Samuel) said, "Is it not possible that if you were commanded to fight than you would not fight?" They (the people) said, "How could we refuse to fight in the cause of Allaah, seeing that we have been driven out of our homes and our children (families have been taken as captives)?" But when they were commanded to fight, they turned back, except a few among them. Allaah has full knowledge of those who do wrong.

Comment 1. In the Tanakh Jewish scripture the children of Israel ask for a King in the story of Prophet Samuel Shammil.

1 Samuel 8:6 But the thing displeased Prophet Samuel, when they (the Children of Israel) said, “Give us a king to judge us.” And Prophet Samuel prayed to the Lord (Allaah).

1 Samuel 8:7 And the Lord (Allaah) said to Prophet Samuel, Listen to the voice of the people in all that they say to you because they have not rejected you but they have rejected Me (Allaah) so that I (Allaah) should not be king over them (the Children of Israel).

 

Comment 2. Why did Allaah ask the children of Israel to fight?

Why did Allaah ask the Muslims from Makkah to fight? 

Quran 2:246 Verse 2:246 "... They (the people) said, "How could we refuse to fight in the cause of Allaah, seeing that we have been driven out of our homes ..." 

 

Quran 2:247 Koran 2:247 Verse 2:247 Ayah 2:247 Ayat 2:247 Aya 2:247 Their Prophet (Samuel) said to them, "Allaah has appointed Saul Talut as your king." The leaders said, "How can he be our king when we have a greater right to kingship  and he does not possess much wealth." Their Prophet (Samuel) said, "Allaah has chosen him above you and He (Allaah) has greatly increased him in knowledge and stature. Allaah grants His (Allaah’s) kingdom to whomever He (Allaah) wills. Allaah is the lord of bounty and wisdom."

Comment 1. In the Tanakh Jewish scripture Saul Talut is made the King of the children of Israel in the story of King Saul Talut.

1 Samuel 9:15 Now the Lord (Allaah) had revealed to Prophet Samuel a day before Saul Talut came, saying:

1 Samuel 9:16 “Tomorrow about this time I (Allaah) shall send you a man out of the land of Benjamin, and you shall anoint him to be prince over My (Allaah’s) people (the people of) Israel, and he (Saul Talut) shall save My (Allaah’s) people out of the hand of the Philistines.

  

Quran 2:248 Koran 2:248 Verse 2:248 Ayah 2:248 Ayat 2:248 Aya 2:248 And their Prophet (Samuel) said to them, "The sign of his kingship shall come to you in the Ark of the Covenant (the agreement between Allaah and the children of Israel) with an assurance in it (for the security of the kingdom of the children of Israel) from your Lord (Allaah) and a reminder (in the relics of the Ten Commandments written on stone tablets inside the Ark left by the family) of Prophet Moses Musa and the family of Prophet Aaron Harun, carried by angels. In that is a sign for you if you have belief.

Comment 1. In the Tanakh Jewish scripture Saul Talut and the Ark containing Allaah’s covenant (agreement) are brought together.

Jewish Hebrew Bible 1 Samuel 14:18 And Saul Talut said to Ahijah, “Bring here the ark of Allaah.” For the ark of Allaah was there at that time with the children of Israel.

 

Quran 2:249 Koran 2:249 Verse 2:249 Ayah 2:249 Ayat 2:249 Aya 2:249 When King Saul Talut departed with the forces, he said, "Allaah shall test you with a river so that whoever drinks it he is not (to be sent further on) from me and whoever does not drink it is (to be sent further on) from me except he who takes it (drinks) from the hollow of his hand (he shall also be sent further on with me)." Then they drank it (by prostrating face down and putting their mouth in the river instead of drinking the water out of the hollow of their hand and this is what Saul did in 1 Samuel 13:2 where these men are "sent" back “to his tent” in the same way as Gideon did in Judges 7:8 where these men are "sent" back “to his tent” so), all (were “sent” back “to his tent” by Saul in 1 Samuel 13:2 like Gideon had done before him in Judges 7:8), except a few of them (who were 3000 men of which Saul gave 1000 men to his son Jonathan to command and Saul commanded the other 2000 men in 1 Samuel 13:2). When he crossed it (the river), he and those who believed with him, they (some of his people) said, "Today we cannot cope with Goliath Jalut and his forces" but those who knew with certainty that they were to meet their Lord (Allaah in the hereafter), said, "How often has a small company (of men) defeated a large company (of men) by the will of Allaah? (as taught by Jonathan the son of Saul in 1 Samuel 14:6 who was given command of 1000 men in 1 Samuel 13:2. The reason the numbers of men in the forces of Saul and Jonathan were reduced by a test and the other men "sent" back "to his tent" like the forces of Gideon were reduced by the same test at an earlier time and the other men "sent" back "to his tent" and that a boy named David fought a powerful man like Goliath is to show that power comes from Allaah as explained by Allaah to Gideon in Judges 7:2 and by Jonathan in 1 Samuel 14:6 and here in Quran 2:249). Allaah is with those who are patient.”

Comment 1. In the JTanakh Jewish scripture Goliath challenges King Saul Talut and created fear in some of the children of Israel in the story of Goliath Jalut.

1 Samuel 17:8 And he (Goliath Jalut of Gath in Philistine) stood and cried to the armies of Israel and said to them, “'Why do you come out arrayed for battle? Am I not a Philistine and you servants to King Saul Talut? Choose a man from you and let him come down to me.”

1 Samuel 17:9 “If he is able to fight with me and kill me then we shall be your servants; but if I prevail against him and kill him, then you shall be our servants and serve us.”

1 Samuel 17:10 And the Philistine said, “'I taunt the armies of Israel this day to give me a man so that we may fight together.”

1 Samuel 17:11 And when King Saul Talut and all Israel heard those words of the Philistine, they were dismayed and greatly afraid.

 

Quran 2:250 Koran 2:250 Verse 2:250 Ayah 2:250 Ayat 2:250 Aya 2:250 When they (the small force who believed among the children of Israel) advanced to meet (their enemy) Goliath Jalut and his forces, they prayed, "Our Lord, make us patient (to endure hardship) and make our steps steadfast (firm) and give us help against the people that have no faith."

 

Quran 2:251 Koran 2:251 Verse 2:251 Ayah 2:251 Ayat 2:251 Aya 2:251 And they (the Children of Israel) defeated (Goliath Jalut) by Allaah’s will when David Dawud killed Goliath Jalut and Allaah gave (David Dawud) the kingdom (of Israel and Judah after the death of King Saul Talut) and wisdom and taught him (King David Dawud) whatever He (Allaah) willed. And if Allaah did not deter one set of people by means of another, the earth would be full of misbehavour but Allaah is the lord of favour to the creations of the worlds (so that good suppresses evil)..

Comment 1. In the Tanakh Jewish scripture David Dawud defeated Goliath Talut.

1 Samuel 17:50 So David Dawud succeeded over the Philistine (Goliath Talut) with a sling and with a stone, and hit the Philistine, and slew him (to the ground); but there was no sword in the hand of David Dawud.

1 Samuel 17:51 And David Dawud ran and stood over the Philistine and took his sword and drew it out of the sheath and killed him and cut off his head. And when the Philistines saw that their mighty man was dead, they ran away.

Comment 2. In the conflicts of the world good suppresses evil.

If Allaah did not deter one set of people by means of another, the earth would be full of misbehavour but Allaah is the Lord of favour to the creations of the worlds so that good suppresses evil..

 

Quran 2:252 Koran 2:252 Verse 2:252 Ayah 2:252 Ayat 2:252 Aya 2:252 Those are the revelations of Allaah. We (Allaah through Angel Gabriel Jibril) recite them to you (Prophet Muhammad) with the truth. You (Prophet Muhammad) surely are one of the Messengers (of Allaah).

Comment 1. The Quran confirms the Torah Taurat and explains the story of Jesus in the Gospel Injil.

See Quran 2:116 comments.

 

Quran 2:253 Koran 2:253 Verse 2:253 Ayah 2:253 Ayat 2:253 Aya 2:253 The messengers We (Allaah) preferred some of them over others (in different ways). Among them were those to whom Allaah spoke and to others He (Allaah) raised their rank (of honour). To (messenger and prophet) Jesus Isa the son of Mary Mariam We (Allaah) gave clear proofs (of his truthfulness) and supported him with the Holy Spirit (a dove, a bird, a body with wings, an angel, angel Gabriel Jibril who stands in the presence of Allaah in the Gospel of Luke 1:19 who came to Jesus Isa in the Gospel of Mark 1:10, Gospel of Luke 3:22, Gospel of Matthew 3:16, Gospel of John 1:32 like a dove meaning a bird, a body with wings, an angel. What stands in the presence of Allaah is called Holy. This is why angel Gabriel Jibril is called the Holy Spirit in the same way as land in the presence of Allaah is called Holy land or Holy ground. Angel Gabriel Jibril is called the Spirit and the Holy Spirit and the Spirit of Allaah in the Gospel of Mark 1:10 and the Gospel of John 1:32 where the dove is “the Spirit” meaning the angel and in the Gospel of Luke 3:22 where the dove is “the Holy Spirit” meaning the Holy angel and in the Gospel of Matthew 3:16 where the dove is “the Spirit of Allaah” meaning the angel of Allaah. Angel Gabriel in the form of a man came with news for Mary in the Gospel of Luke 1:35 and returned in his true form as “a dove,” a bird, a body with wings, an angel, the Holy Spirit in the form of an angel who stands in the presence of Allaah and delivered the soul of Jesus to the womb of Mary and confirmed in Quran 2:97, Quran 16:102 and Quran 53:4 – 53:5). If Allaah had so willed He (Allaah) could have made succeeding generations not fight among each other if after the clear proofs (of Allaah’s revelations) the people believed, but they chose to dispute, some believing (the Prophets of Allaah) and others rejecting (the Prophets of Allaah). If Allaah had willed then they (the humans) would not have fought each other but Allaah does whatever He (Allaah) wills.

Comment 1. Quran 2:253 reveals that the messengers of Allaah can be identified by the gifts Allaah gave to them.

Allaah gave Prophet Joseph Yusuf and Prophet Jacob Yaqub Israel the ability to interpret dreams in the same way as in an earlier time Allaah gave Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and Prophet Isaac Ishaq that same ability in the story of the sacrifice.

In Quran 12:4–12:7 Allaah gives the story of another son, Prophet Joseph Yusuf and his father Prophet Jacob Yaqub Israel who both interpreted a dream where the son Prophet Joseph Yusuf might be killed and Allaah says that He (Allaah) gave them that power to interpret and understand the meaning of dreams as a favour from Allaah in the same way that Allaah gave that same power to Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and Prophet Isaac Ishaq in an earlier time.

 

Quran 12:6 Verse 12:6 “….as He (Allaah) perfected it (the ability to understand dreams) upon your fathers before you, Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and Prophet Isaac Ishaq. 

 

Quran 12:6 Verse 12:6 “And so your Lord (Allaah) shall choose you (Prophet Joseph Yusuf) and shall teach you the interpretation of stories (dreams, visions) and shall perfect His (Allaah’s) favour upon you and upon the family of Prophet Jacob Yaqub Israel as He (Allaah) perfected it (the ability to understand dreams) upon your fathers before you, Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and Prophet Isaac Ishaq. Your Lord (Allaah) knows all things and is wise.” 

 

The gift of vision to Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and Prophet Isaac Ishaq.

Quran 2:253 Verse 2:253 The messengers We (Allaah) endowed with gifts, some (with) more (gifts) than others. …”

Quran 38:45 Verse 38:45 And mention Our (Allaah’s) servant Prophet Abraham Ibrahim, Prophet Isaac Ishaq and Prophet Jacob Yaqub Israel (who were), men with strength (of faith in Allaah) and vision (to understand the meaning of dreams).

 

Prophet Ishmael Ismail is not mentioned as the father and son with the power of vision in Quran 38:45 instead Allaah mentions Prophet Ishmael Ismail separately and without his father three verses later in Quran 38:48.

Quran 38:48 Verse 38:48 And mention Prophet Ishmael Ismail and Prophet Elisha Al-Yasa and Prophet Ezekiel Zulkifl. All are among the chosen (prophets of Allaah). 

 

Prophet Ishmael Ismail is never mentioned in the story of the sacrifice in Quran chapter 37 because Prophet Ishmael Ismail is not in the story of the sacrifice.

In Quran chapter 38 Allaah shows that Prophet Ishmael Ismail and Prophet Isaac Ishaq are two different stories.

The story of Prophet Ishmael Ismail is the story of the building of the Kabah.

The story of the good news son is the story of Prophet Isaac Ishaq and the sacrifice.

 

In Quran chapter 38 Allaah blesses the father and the son with the blessing of vision to understand dreams by blessing Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and Prophet Isaac Ishaq together in Quran 38:45 and three verses later Prophet Ishmael Ismail is blessed without his father in Quran 38:48 and without the blessing of vision.

 

Allaah has made clear for who ever Allaah wills that Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and Prophet Isaac Ishaq are the father and son in the story of the sacrifice which confirms that no one can change the word of Allaah in the Torah Taurat and in the Koran Quran.

If humans had the power to change the word of Allaah in the Torah Taurat and in the Koran Quran then no revelation could be trusted because it would be proof that Allaah did not protect His word which would be proof that Allaah does not exist.

 

Quran 30:30 Verse 30:30 So direct yourself (Prophet Muhammad) towards the religion (the belief in one creator) for which He (Allaah who is the one and only creator) has created (religion for) humans. No one can alter what Allaah has created (in religion, in the Torah Taurat, the Gospel Injil and the Koran Quran). That is the right religion (belief), but most people do not know (this).

 

Quran 37:102 Verse 37:102 And (then, therefore, so), when he (the “good news son” in Quran 37:101 Prophet Isaac Ishaq who is also unnamed in Quran 15:53, 15:54, 15:55 and 51:28 because good news is always the name Allaah gives to Prophet Isaac Ishaq in the Prophet Abraham Ibrahim story in the Quran) was old enough to work with him (Prophet Abraham Ibrahim), he (Prophet Abraham Ibrahim) said, "O my son (Prophet Isaac Ishaq), I see in a dream that I am slaughtering (sacrificing) you, (my son) so look (at my dream as remembered in Quran 12:6 and 38:45 and showing three verses later in Quran 38:48 that it was not Prophet Ishmael Ismail by blessing Prophet Ishmael Ismail without his father and without the power of vision and so Allaah decreed those revelations in Quran chapter 38 after the story of the sacrifice in Quran chapter 37 to guide by Allaah’s word those who understand what Allaah is teaching. Those who understand are guided by the words of Allaah. Those who do not understand are misguided by the words of humans. So Look) what (do) you see (what do you think about my dream)?" He (Prophet Isaac Ishaq) said, "O my father, do as you are commanded, Allaah willing you shall find me patience (not complaining, forbearing as in Quran 37:101).” 

 

In Quran chapter 37 the story of the sacrifice the only blessing from Allaah is to Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and Prophet Isaac Ishaq. Allaah leaves no blessing to Prophet Ishmael Ismail because Prophet Ishmael Ismail is not in the story of the sacrifice.

 

In the Quran the story of the sacrifice of Prophet Isaac Ishaq is a test to show who follows in the way of Allaah in the Quran and who follows in the way of human stories hadith that cannot be found in the Quran.

The same test is in Christianity to show who follows in the way of Allaah in the Gospel Injil and who follows human stories about Trinity that cannot be found in the Gospel Injil.

 

Allaah names Prophet Isaac Ishaq as “the good news” son 9 times in Quran chapter 11, 15, 19, 29 and 51. 

Allaah names Prophet Isaac Ishaq four times in Quran chapter 37 (twice as the good news son and twice by name). 

See in Quran 37:98 - 37:113.

 

Comment 2. The Books of Allaah.

Stories claiming the Torah Taurat is corrupted contradict all the teachings in the Quran telling us that the Jewish people have the Torah and telling us that the Torah is from Allaah and telling us that no one can change the word of Allaah because that is the proof that Allaah is real for every human until the Day of Judgement. 

 

The Jewish people judge scripture as true if it confirms the Torah Taurat.

Many Muslims say the Quran does not agree with the Torah Taurat and therefore to a Jew it means the Quran cannot be from Allaah.

 

If Muslims said the Quran confirms the Torah Taurat it would mean the Quran is from Allaah but this is not what many Muslims are telling the Jewish people today.

 

1400 years ago Prophet Muhammad said the Quran confirms the Torah Taurat meaning confirms the Torah Taurat is correct as proof the Quran is from Allaah but this is not the message many Muslims say to Jewish people today.

 

Rabbi Tovia Singer has studied the Torah Taurat and Gospel Injil and Quran and explains that the Jews have the scripture and therefore whenever anyone claims they also have the scripture the Jewish person compares their scripture to all other scriptures and if another scripture agrees with the Jewish scripture the Jew will applaud it in other words Jews are not asking if someone is or is not a prophet but a Jew asks do scriptures like the Gospel and the Quran which both say they confirm the Torah Taurat agree or disagree with the Jewish scripture.

 

When a Jew reads in the Quran that Allaah is only one the Jew applauds it meaning it agrees with the Torah.

When a Jew reads some Christian opinions that Allaah is a Trinity the Jew does not applaud it meaning it disagrees with the Torah Taurat.

See 1. Quran 28:52 comments in Quran chapter 28.

See 2. Quran 28:53 comments in Quran chapter 28.

See 3. Quran 28:54 comments in Quran chapter 28.

See 4. Quran 4:162 comments in Quran chapter 4.

 

Evidence for the truth is the Quran confirming the Torah Taurat is correct. 

Quran 3:93 Ayah 3:93 “… Say (Prophet Muhammad, to the Jews of Yathrib), "Bring the Torah Taurat here and recite it (to me as evidence) if what you say is true."

Note 1. The proof of truth according to the Quran is the Torah Taurat meaning no one changed the Torah Taurat.

Note 2. The Quran confirms the Torah Taurat is with the Jewish people and the Quran confirms no one can change the word of Allaah.

Note 3. Allaah tells the Jews to recite the Torah Taurat meaning the Jews have the Torah Taurat and no one changed it.

Note 4. If anyone can prove the Torah Taurat was changed then they have found the proof that Allaah does not exist.

Note 5. Allaah says the proof of truth is the Quran confirming what is with the Jewish people in the Torah Taurat meaning there are no contradictions between the Quran which is with the Muslim people and the Torah Taurat which is with the Jewish people.

 

Quran 2:41 Ayah 2:41 And believe in what I (Allaah) have revealed (in the Quran) confirming that which is with you (the Jewish people in the Torah Taurat as proof to the stone idol worshipers of Makkah in Quran 6:114, Quran 46:10 and Quran 10:94 that the Quran is not an invented story) ..."

Note 1. The Quran confirms the Torah Taurat which is with the Jewish people forever.

 

Quran 4:136 Ayah 4:136 “... and whoever has no faith inHis (Allaah’s) Books, … then he has strayed far away (from Allaah).

 

The Quran confirms the Torah Taurat and explains the story of Jesus in the Gospel Injil. 

A. Prophet Muhammad in the Torah Taurat and Gospel Injil.

See Quran 7:157 comments in Quran chapter 7.

 

B. Every prophet of God is “the Word of God made flesh” meaning the word of God comes out of the mouth of every prophet of God in Deuteronomy 18:18.

See Quran 5:116 comments in Quran chapter 5.

 

C. How did Allaah save Jesus. 

See 1. Quran 4:157 and Quran 4:158 comments in Quran chapter 4.

See 2. Quran 29:57 comments in Quran chapter 29.

 

D. The second coming of Jesus and every other human is on the Day of Resurrection.

See Quran 79:7 comments in Quran chapter 79.

 

E. Examples of hadith stories which contradict the teachings of Allaah in the Quran.

See Quran 25:30 comments in Quran chapter 25.

 

F. Allaah protects the Quran, Gospel Injil and the Torah Taurat as proof Allaah is real.

https://sites.google.com/site/islamandthequran/allaah-protects-the-taurat-injil-and-quran

 

G. Jews and Christians who follow their Book and also believe the Quran will be rewarded twice in the hereafter.

See Quran 28:54 comments in Quran chapter 28.

 

Quran 2:254 Koran 2:254 Verse 2:254 Ayah 2:254 Ayat 2:254 Aya 2:254 You who believe, spend (righteously) from what We (Allaah) have provided for you (in the world), before a Day (of Resurrection and Judgement) comes when there shall be no bargaining, no friendship and no intercession (that can help you on that Day of Judgement). The disbelievers (in the guidance of Allaah to do good and reject evil) are wrong doers.

 

Quran 2:255 Koran 2:255 Verse 2:255 Ayah 2:255 Ayat 2:255 Aya 2:255 Regarding Allaah, there is no Allaah except Him (Allaah) the eternally living and the sustainer of all that exists. He (Allaah) is never sleepy and He (Allaah) does not sleep. He (Allaah) is the owner of everything in the heavens and on the earth. Who is there that can intercede in His (Allaah’s) presence (on the Day of Judgement) except as He (Allaah) permits? He (Allaah) knows what is before them (the present and the future) and what is behind them (the past). And they (Allaah’s creations) do not have any of His (Allaah’s) knowledge except what He (Allaah) wills (them to have). His (Allaah’s) throne (of authority) extends over the heavens and the earth (meaning, Allaah rules the heavens and the earth) and He (Allaah) never feels tired guarding both of them (the heavens and the earth). He (Allaah) is the highest (deserving of remembrance and thanks) and the greatest (in importance to all that exists because all creations are sustained by Allaah).

Comment 1. The Quran confirms the Tanakh Jewish scripture.

Isaiah 40:28 Did you not know? Have you not heard that the everlasting Allaah, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, does not faint (into sleep), or become tired? His (Allaah’s) wisdom is beyond (human) understanding.

 

Comment 2. What does Allaah rested on the seventh day mean?

Torah Genesis 2:1 And the heaven and the earth were finished, and all the host (living things) of them (the heavens and the Earth).

Genesis 2:2 And on the seventh day Allaah finished His work which He had made (in six days); and He rested on the seventh day (Allaah has no need to rest so this means that Allaah completed all His creation in 6 days and commanded humans to remember Allaah when humans rest on the seventh day as a remembrance of Allaah) from all His (Allaah’s) work which He (Allaah) had made.

 

Quran 2:256 Koran 2:256 Verse 2:256 Ayah 2:256 Ayat 2:256 Aya 2:256 There is no compulsion in religion (meaning, religion must come voluntarily from the human heart and not from the fear of humans or by force). The right path (in belief) has become clear from the wrong (path in belief). Whoever disbelieves in Taghut (the stone idol gods in Makkah) and believes in Allaah is holding a trustworthy hand which shall never break (meaning, Allaah shall never leave you) and Allaah hears all and knows all things. –

Comment 1. Allaah gave freedom of religion 1400 years before the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights in Quran 2:256.

Allaah forbids forceful conversion to Islam.

The Ansar (Al-Ansar, the helpers) is the name given to some of the first people in Yathrib, Medina who became Muslim. When the Ansar tried to force their sons to become Muslim, Quran 2:256 was revealed to stop people from forcing other people to believe in religion against their will and to show that Allaah orders freedom of choice in the matter of religion.

See. Allaah called on humans to free the slave 1400 years before the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights in Quran 90:11 – 90:13.

Comment 2. It is a sin to say that Allaah orders death for leaving religion when Allaah has given no such order in the Quran because it is Allaah who judges each human.

See 1. Apostasy in Islam.

See 2. Quran 25:30 comments with examples of hadith stories which contradict the teachings of Allaah in Quran chapter 25.

 

Quran 2:257 Koran 2:257 Verse 2:257 Ayah 2:257 Ayat 2:257 Aya 2:257 Allaah is the protector of those who have faith. He (Allaah) brings them out from darkness (ignorance) into light (understanding). But those who disbelieve have Taghut (the stone idol gods in Makkah) that take them out from light (understanding) into darkness (ignorance) and they are the ones who shall be in the fire (of punishment) forever (in the hereafter).

 

Quran 2:258 Koran 2:258 Verse 2:258 Ayah 2:258 Ayat 2:258 Aya 2:258 Have you considered when Allaah gave a person (King Amraphel) the kingdom (of Shinar, Babylonia where the descendants of Prophet Noah Nuh settled after the flood) and he (King Amraphel) argued about Allaah? Prophet Abraham Ibrahim said, “My Lord is He (Allaah) who gives life and causes death”. He (King Amraphel) said, “I give life and I cause death.” Prophet Abraham Ibrahim said, surely Allaah causes the Sun to rise from the east so can you make it (the Sun) rise from the west?  And so the (argument) of the disbeliever was defeated. Allaah does not guide the people who are wrong-doers.

Comment 1. The Torah explains the Quran and the Quran explains the Torah.

The Taurat explains the Quran and the Quran explains the Taurat.

Torah Genesis 14:1 – 14:11 describes the forces of King Amraphel when he made war with Sodom.

Torah Genesis 14:12 – 14:24 describes the capture of Abram’s brother Lot Lut and his rescue at Hobah, a town north of Damascus (today in Syria) by Abram who later became Abraham Ibrahim.

 

Note 1. King Amraphel, King of Shinar, Babylonia lived in the time when Abram (later Prophet Abraham Ibrahim) and his brother Prophet Lot Lut who lived in Canaan today Israel and Palestine. This was the time when Prophet Lot Lut lived in the town of Sodom in Canaan and Abram (later Prophet Abraham Ibrahim) lived in Mamre (Hebron) in Canaan today Israel and Palestine.

 

Note 2. King Amraphel the King of Shinar (Babylonia) had the same arrogance as the Pharaoh Firon of Egypt and Haman of Persia.

 

Note 3. Quran 26:196 Verse 26:196 It (the revelations from Allaah in the Quran) is (also) in the Scriptures of the people of the past (in the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil). 

Quran 41:43 Verse 41:43 Nothing is said (by Allaah) to you (Prophet Muhammad) except what has already been said to the messengers before you. Your Lord (Allaah) is the possessor of forgiveness and severe punishment.

 

Quran 2:259 Koran 2:259 Verse 2:259 Ayah 2:259 Ayat 2:259 Aya 2:259 Or like the person (Prophet Ezra Uzair) who passed by a township (Jerusalem Al-Quds) which had fallen into complete ruin, and (out of curiosity), said “How can Allaah bring this town (Jerusalem Al-Quds and its religious life that were destroyed in 1209 BH 587 BCE 587 BC back) to life after death (after King Nebuchadnezzar of the Babylonian Empire today in Iraq had destroyed Jerusalem Al-Quds)?" So Allaah caused him (Prophet Ezra Uzair) to die for a hundred years and then raised him to life and (an angel of Allaah) asked him, "How long did you remain (here sleeping)?" He (Prophet Ezra Uzair) said "I remained (here sleeping) a day or part of a day" (confirming Quran 2:259, 18:19, 18:21, 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 where every human both the righteous and the wrong doer will swear on the Day of Resurrection that death feels like nothing but a one hour sleep or a ten hour sleep or like sleeping for part of one day). He (the angel) said, "No, you have been dead for a hundred years, look at your food and your drink (and see that) it has not aged (showing that it was the power of Allaah which kept the food fresh for a hundred years) but look at your donkey (it is a skeleton, showing proof that one hundred years of time have really passed). Look at the bones (and see) how We (Allaah revealed through an angel) bring them together and cover them with flesh" (The donkey was brought back to life to show that it is Allaah who gives death and Allaah who gives life). We (Allaah revealed through an angel) made you (your resurrection, your food and your donkey) a sign (of the power of Allaah) for the people. When this became clear to him he (Prophet Ezra Uzair) said, "I know that Allaah has power over all things (confirming Quran 2:259, 18:19, 18:21, 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 where every human both the righteous and the wrong doer will swear on the Day of Resurrection that death feels like nothing but a one hour sleep or a ten hour sleep or like sleeping for part of one day)."

 

Comment 1. Allaah brings life to the dead in the story of Prophet Ezra Uzair.

Prophet Ezra Uzair the priest was a descendant of Prophet Aaron Harun, the brother of Prophet Moses Musa. 

Allaah showed what happens in the grave.

Allaah teaches what humans will say about how much time has passed between their death and the Day of Resurrection.

 

Comment 2. Prophet Ezra Uzair was thinking about Jerusalem Al-Quds. It had been destroyed by King Nebuchadnezzar of the Babylonian Empire today in Iraq in 1209 BH (587 BCE 587 BC) and the Jews were taken away as captives.

Jerusalem Al-Quds was in ruins and religion had disappeared from there.

Prophet Ezra Uzair was thinking, How can Allaah bring this town (Jerusalem Al-Quds) and its religious life that were destroyed in 1209 BH (587 BCE 587 BC) back to life after it had died?

So Allaah gave Prophet Ezra Uzair “a sign”, a vision.

In the sign (the vision) from Allaah Prophet Ezra Uzair was made to die for a hundred years and then raised to life and an angel of Allaah asked him, "How long did you remain (dead)?"

Prophet Ezra Uzair said "I remained dead a day or part of a day".

The angel said, "No, you have been dead for a hundred years, look at your food and your drink and see that it has not aged (showing that it was the power of Allaah which kept the food fresh for a hundred years) but look at your donkey (it is a skeleton, showing proof that one hundred years of time have really passed). Look at the bones and see how We (Allaah revealed through an angel) bring them together and cover them with flesh" (The donkey was brought back to life to show that it is Allaah who gives death and it is Allaah who gives life). And all of this was a sign from Allaah.

 

Comment 3. Allaah had answered the question of Prophet Ezra Uzair by revealing that just as Allaah takes away life (like that of the donkey that was dead for a hundred years) and maintains life (like that of the hundred year old fresh food) and resurrects life (like that of the dead donkey brought back to life after a hundred years and Prophet Ezra Uzair brought back to life after a hundred years which to Prophet Ezra Uzair seemed to be only a day or part of a day) in that same way Allaah can return a dead town like the destroyed town of Jerusalem Al-Quds where the religion of Allaah had disappeared back to life.

 

Comment 4. This vision from Allaah inspired Prophet Ezra Uzair in the seventh year of the Persian King Artaxerxes when Prophet Ezra Uzair made the second return of Jewish exiles to Jerusalem Al-Quds in 1080 BH (458 BCE, 458 BC) where Prophet Ezra Uzair helped to rebuild Jerusalem Al-Quds and teach the Torah Taurat).

Allaah had inspired Prophet Ezra Uzair to return the children of Israel and the religion of Allaah back to Jerusalem Al-Quds and to the second Jewish Temple of Allaah in Jerusalem Al-Quds which had been re-built by 1137 BH (515 BCE 515 BC) on the site of the first Jewish Temple of Allaah that had been destroyed in 1209 BH (587 BCE 587 BC) by King Nebuchadnezzar of the Babylonian Empire today in Iraq.

King Artaxerxes of Persia defeated King Nebuchadrezzar of Babylon and that allowed the Jews to return to rebuild Jerusalem Al-Quds.

 

Comment 5. In the Quran and the Tanakh Jewish scripture there is no punishment in the grave.

Allaah shows that the grave is like sleep and nothing happens in the grave.

Allaah teaches what humans will say about how much time it felt to them had passed between their death and the Day of their Resurrection.

The story of the death and resurrection of Prophet Ezra Uzair confirms Quran 2:259, 18:19, 18:21, 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 where on the Day of Resurrection every human both the righteous and the wrong doer will all swear that waking up from death feels like nothing but waking up from a short sleep that was only one hour long or only as long as part of one day.

See Quran 40:46 comments.

 

Quran 2:259 where waking uo after a death of a hundred years will feel like you were sleeping for part of one day agrees with Zabur Psalm 6:6 of Prophet Dawud that there is no memory of Allaah in the grave meaning nothing happens in the grave meaning the Quran confirms the Tanakh Jewish scripture is correct and there is no punishment in the grave.

Allaah teaches that nothing happens in the grave.

Allaah teaches what humans will say about how much time it feels to them had passed between their death and the Day of their Resurrection.

Death might be a very long time but it will feel like only a one hour or ten hour sleep in Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46 and like the blink (closing and then opening) of the eye in Quran 16:77.

 

Ecclesiastes 9:5 For the living know that they shall die; but the dead know nothing, neither have they (those who died have) any more a reward (for praising Allaah); because (in death) they have no memory (of anything).

Note 1. In death there is no memory and this is why on the Day of Resurrection when people are asked how much time has passed it will feel like only a day or part of a day had passed between the time of their death and the Day of their Resurrection in Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46.

 

Ecclesiastes 12:7 And (in death) the dust returns to the earth as it was and the spirit returns to Allaah who gave it. 

 

Zabur Psalm 6:6 For there is no memory of You (Allaah) in death; in the grave, who will thank You (Allaah)? 

Note 1. Humans have no memory in death meaning no memory when they are in the grave. 

Note 2. Humans have no memory of Allaah when they are in the grave meaning nothing happens in the grave. 

Note 3. Dead humans can only know Allaah when they are resurrected back to life meaning nothing happens during death in the grave. 

Note 4. In death there is no memory and this is why on the Day of Resurrection when people are asked how much time has passed it will feel like only a day or part of a day had passed between the time of their death and the Day of their Resurrection in Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46.

 

Zabur Psalm 146:4 (When death comes) his breath goes out, he returns to the earth (as dust); in that very day (of his death) his thoughts perish (meaning he has no memory in death).

Note 1. In death there is no memory and this is why on the Day of Resurrection when people are asked how much time has passed it will feel like only a day or part of a day had passed between the time of their death and the Day of their Resurrection in Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46.

 

Isaiah 38:18 For the dead in the grave cannot praise You (Allaah), death cannot celebrate You (Allaah); they that go down into the grave cannot hope for Your (Allaah’s) truth (because those in the grave have no memory). 

Note 1. In death there is no memory and this is why on the Day of Resurrection when people are asked how much time has passed it will feel like only a day or part of a day had passed between the time of their death and the Day of their Resurrection in Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46.

 

Isaiah 38:19 The living, the living, he shall praise You (Allaah), as I (Prophet Isaiah) do this day; the father to the children shall make known Your (Allaah’s) truth. 

 

Isaiah 26:19 Your dead shall live, “My dead bodies shall arise, awake and sing, you that dwell in the dust (grave) for Your (Allaah’s) dew (the Torah) is like the dew of light (of guidance), and the earth shall bring to life the shades (those in the graves). 


Daniel 12:2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to reproaches and everlasting abhorrence.

 

Quran 77:50 Verse 77:50 In what statement (words, news, reports, information, message, hadith), after it (the verses of Allaah in the Quran), shall they (the humans and the jinn) believe? 

Note 1. Quran 7:185, Quran 25:29, Quran 25:30, Quran 31:6, Quran 39:23, Quran 45:6 and Quran 77:50 asks when you have the word of Allaah in the Quran what other report would you believe? 

 

Quran 25:30 Verse 25:30 And (on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement) the messenger (Prophet Muhammad) said, “My Lord (Allaah) my people have abandoned (deserted) this Quran (to follow false messages, false words, false news, false reports, false information, false statements, false hadith).” 

Note 1. On the Day of Resurrection and Judgement Prophet Muhammad will say “My Lord my people have abandoned this Quran (to follow false messages, false words, false news, false reports, false information, false statements, false hadith).” 

 

Quran 17:88 Verse 17:88 Say (Prophet Muhammad), "If humans and jinn (such as Satan Shaitan) came together to help each other to produce something like the Quran, they could not do it." 

Note 1. In the hereafter Satan Shaitan might boast he obeyed Quran 17:88 by whispering hundreds of false hadith stories which teach the opposite to what Allaah and Prophet Muhammad teach in the Quran.

 

Do not twist inside your mind the meaning of the words of Allaah in the Quran to agree with hadith stories. 

If hadith stories agree with the Quran then accept it and learn from it. 

If hadith stories do not agree with the Quran then reject it and also learn from it. 

On the Day of Judgement Allaah judges by the words in the protected Quran. 

On the Day of Judgement Allaah does not judge by the words in unprotected human hadith stories. 

The Quran is the protected word of Allaah including the words and actions of Prophet Muhammad which are described and protected by Allaah.

Quran 2:260 Koran 2:260 Verse 2:260 Ayah 2:260 Ayat 2:260 Aya 2:260 And (remember) when Prophet Abraham Ibrahim said, "My Lord (Allaah), show me how You give life to the dead." He (Allaah) said, "Do you not believe?" He (Prophet Abraham Ibrahim) said, "Yes (I believe) but (I ask) to ease my heart (from curiosity)." He (Allaah) said, "Take four birds and slaughter them, cut them into pieces, and scatter the pieces on the mountain tops and call them, they shall quickly fly to you. Know that Allaah is all mighty, all wise."

Comment 1. Allaah brings life to the dead in the story of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim.

 

Quran 2:261 Koran 2:261 Verse 2:261 Ayah 2:261 Ayat 2:261 Aya 2:261 Examples of those who spend their wealth in the cause of Allaah (to please Allaah) is like the grain that grows seven ears and in every ear there are a hundred grains; and Allaah multiplies (the reward in this life and in the hereafter) for whoever He (Allaah) pleases. Allaah encompass all and knows all.

 

Quran 2:262 Koran 2:262 Verse 2:262 Ayah 2:262 Ayat 2:262 Aya 2:262 Those who spend their wealth in the cause of Allaah (to please Allaah) and do not (boast) after their gifts with reminders of their generosity or by injuring (of people, animals, trees or the environment beyond the limits), their reward is with their Lord (Allaah). They shall not fear and they shall not grieve (in the hereafter).

 

Quran 2:263 Koran 2:263 Verse 2:263 Ayah 2:263 Ayat 2:263 Aya 2:263 Words of kindness and forgiveness (every day in your life) are better than (giving) charity (occassionally) after someone has suffered. Allaah is rich (free of all wants and self sufficient) and forbearing (with kindness and mercy always ready to forgive our faults and mistakes). 

 

Quran 2:264 Koran 2:264 Verse 2:264 Ayah 2:264 Ayat 2:264 Aya 2:264 You who believe, do not make your charity (which you do to please Allaah) worthless by bragging (to people) about your generosity to those who suffer like the person who spend their wealth so that other people might see what they are doing and does not believe in Allaah and the Last Day (the Day of Resurrection and Judgement). The example (of such people without faith in Allaah) is like the example of a smooth rock which is covered with earth (the personality that the human eye can see) that is washed away by rain exposing the hard rock bare (the heart that Allaah can see is empty of sincerity). They (who have no faith in Allaah) are not able to do anything with what they have earned (in their life because without faith whatever you do in your life has no reward for the hereafter). Allaah does not guide (to the rewards in the hereafter) people that have no faith.

 

Quran 2:265 Koran 2:265 Verse 2:265 Ayah 2:265 Ayat 2:265 Aya 2:265 And the example of those (people such as Jews and Christians and Muslims and others) who spend their wealth seeking Allaah’s pleasure while they are sure and certain that Allaah shall reward them (for living to please Allaah), is like the example of a garden on elevated ground (fertile ground meaning full of faith) on which heavy rain falls (meaning, when good times come) and it doubles its harvest (meaning the reward is doubled in the hereafter in Quran 4:40). And if it (the garden with faith) does not receive heavy rain then light rain is sufficient (to maintain faith, meaning a person with faith in Allaah who does good deeds will be successful in earning a double reward in the hereafter in Quran 4:40 meaning the reward for every good deed they do in this world will be doubled in the hereafter). Allaah sees all that you do.

 

Quran 2:266 Koran 2:266 Verse 2:266 Ayah 2:266 Ayat 2:266 Aya 2:266 Would any of you like to have a garden of palm-trees and vines with rivers flowing underneath it and all kinds of fruit for yourself and then old age comes to you and you have only small children to care for you and then it (your garden) is hit and completely burnt by a whirlwind of fire? (Meaning, one day everything in your life shall disappear). Allaah makes clear His (Allaah’s) revelations so that you may give it some thought (and remember that one day you will die which means everything today is temporary but the hereafter is everlasting).

 

Quran 2:267 Koran 2:267 Verse 2:267 Ayah 2:267 Ayat 2:267 Aya 2:267 You who believe, give in charity what is good from the things which you have earned and what you produce from the earth, and do not choose to give what is bad (illegally aquired) as gifts, when you would not like to receive it unless you closed your eyes (to it having being obtained illegally). And know that Allaah is rich (free of all wants and self sufficient) and worthy of all praise. 

 

Quran 2:268 Koran 2:268 Verse 2:268 Ayah 2:268 Ayat 2:268 Aya 2:268 The evil one (Satan Shaitan) promises you poverty (in the hereafter and calls you to Hell fire) with evil deeds but Allaah promises you forgiveness and favour. With Allaah is bounty and wisdom.

 

Quran 2:269 Koran 2:269 Verse 2:269 Ayah 2:269 Ayat 2:269 Aya 2:269 He (Allaah) grants wisdom to whomever He (Allaah) pleases and the person to whom wisdom is granted has received something that is very good. And no one shall remember (the message of Allaah) except those with a pure heart (pure mind, the righteous).

 

Quran 2:270 Koran 2:270 Verse 2:270 Ayah 2:270 Ayat 2:270 Aya 2:270 And whatever you spend in charity (to please Allaah) or whatever vow you make (in the name of Allaah), you can be sure that Allaah knows all about it. And for the wrong doers there are no helpers (that can save them from punishment in the Hereafter).

 

Quran 2:271 Koran 2:271 Verse 2:271 Ayah 2:271 Ayat 2:271 Aya 2:271 If you give charity openly it is acceptable but if you hide (that you are giving in charity) to the poor then it is better for you (in reward in the hereafter because you did it to please only Allaah and not to please humans) and this shall remove some of your evil deeds (as a reward to you in the hereafter). Allaah is aware of what you do.

 

Quran 2:272 Koran 2:272 Verse 2:272 Ayah 2:272 Ayat 2:272 Aya 2:272 It is not for you (Prophet Muhammad) to guide them (humans). Allaah guides whoever He (Allaah) wills. Whatever you spend in doing good is for yourself (your own soul in the hereafter) but do not spend except in the way of Allaah (legally). And whatever you spend in charity you shall get back in full (in the hereafter) and you shall not be dealt with unjustly (in the hereafter). 

Comment 1. Humans have freedom of religion and guidance is from Allaah.

 

Quran 2:273 Koran 2:273 Verse 2:273 Ayah 2:273 Ayat 2:273 Aya 2:273 (Give charity to) the needy who are restricted (from travelling) in Allaah’s cause and cannot move about in the land seeking (trade or work). The ignorant person thinks that because of their modesty (the modesty of the humble who are in need) that they are free from any needs. You shall know them (the humble who are in need) by their (unfailing) character, they (the humble who are in need) do not persistently ask people (for help). Whatever good you give (them that are humble and are in need), be assured Allaah knows it well. 

 

Quran 2:274 Koran 2:274 Verse 2:274 Ayah 2:274 Ayat 2:274 Aya 2:274 Those who spend their wealth (in Allaah’s cause, in charity) by night and day, in secret and in public, they shall have their reward with their Lord (Allaah). On them shall be no fear and they shall not grieve (in the hereafter).

 

Quran 2:275 Koran 2:275 Verse 2:275 Ayah 2:275 Ayat 2:275 Aya 2:275 Those who charge interest shall not stand (on the Day of Resurrection) except like the ones that stand whom the evil one (Satan Shaitan) has touched and driven to madness.  That is because they say, "trading is just like charging interest" but Allaah has permitted trading and forbidden the charging of interest. So whosoever received a warning from his Lord (Allaah) and stops charging interest they shall not be punished for (what they did in) the past and from then onward that person's case is for Allaah (to judge) but whoever returns to charging interest they shall be punished to live in fire forever (in the hereafter).

 

Quran 2:276 Koran 2:276 Verse 2:276 Ayah 2:276 Ayat 2:276 Aya 2:276 Allaah erases (in the hereafter) the growth of interest (that is gained in this world) but increases (the reward in the hereafter) deeds of charity (that are done in this world). Allaah does not love those who are ungrateful (to Allaah) and (those who are) wrongdoers.

 

Quran 2:277 Koran 2:277 Verse 2:277 Ayah 2:277 Ayat 2:277 Aya 2:277 Those who have faith (in Allaah) and do good deeds and establish regular prayers and regular charity shall have their reward with their Lord (in Paradise). On them shall be no fear and they shall not grieve (in the hereafter).

 

Quran 2:278 Koran 2:278 Verse 2:278 Ayah 2:278 Ayat 2:278 Aya 2:278 You who believe, fear Allaah, and give up what remains of interest that is owed to you if you are indeed believers (of Allaah).

 

Quran 2:279 Koran 2:279 Verse 2:279 Ayah 2:279 Ayat 2:279 Aya 2:279 But if you do not (stop charging interest) then be warning of war from Allaah and His (Allaah’s) messenger but if you repent (for having charged interest) then for you is your capital (which is what you loaned which you can keep without interest). Do not cause injustice (by charging interest) and do not be the cause of injustice (by not repaying the capital amount which was loaned to you)

 

Quran 2:280 Koran 2:280 Verse 2:280 Ayah 2:280 Ayat 2:280 Aya 2:280 If the person (who received the loan) is in hardship (to repay) then grant them time so that it is easier for them to repay (the loan). But if you cancel the debt (owing to you) as a charity (to them) that is best for you, if you only knew (the great reward in the hereafter for such deeds). 

 

Quran 2:281 Koran 2:281 Verse 2:281 Ayah 2:281 Ayat 2:281 Aya 2:281 And fear the Day (of Judgement) when you shall be brought back to Allaah when every soul shall be paid what it earned and none shall be dealt with unjustly. 

 

Quran 2:282 Koran 2:282 Verse 2:282 Ayah 2:282 Ayat 2:282 Aya 2:282 You who believe, when you (make a) contract with each other any debt (such as borrowing money) for a fixed term (in which you promise to pay it back to the lender, you should) write it down. Let a scribe write down (the contract) between you justly. The scribe should not refuse to write as Allaah taught him he should write (truthfully). So let him (write) and let the one under obligation (to repay the debt) dictate (the contract agreement promising to repay), and (the writer should) have fear of Allaah, his Lord, and not leave out a thing (in the writing of the contract). If the one under obligation (to repay the debt) has limited understanding or is weak or unable to dictate, then let his guardian dictate justly. And have two of your men to act as witnesses but if two men are not available, then a man and two women of whom you agree, so that if one (of the women) forgets anything then the other (women) may remind her. When the witnesses are called (to give evidence) they should not refuse (to come and give evidence). Do not neglect to draw up a contract (for both) big or small (commercial transactions), with the time fixed for paying back the debt. This is more proper in the eyes of Allaah, and better as evidence and best for avoiding doubt, except for common transactions between you face to face carried out among you (on the spot) then there is no sin on you that you do not write it (the daily face to face on the spot business transactions). Take witnesses (to observe) when you make a commercial transaction, (and make sure) that the writer and the witness is not harmed. If they are (harmed) it would be sinful conduct for you. So fear Allaah. Allaah teaches you and Allaah knows all things.

 

Comment 1. In Quran 2:282 Allaah commands that when something is loaned a contract agreement to repay the loan or complete a transaction should be written down.

Before Muhammad was a prophet he was given the job of travelling to Syria with money and with goods to purchase products and return with them to Makkah Arabia where they were sold by the trader who employed Muhammad.

 

Comment 2. What does lettered and unlettered mean? 

See 1. Quran 25:5 shows that the people of Makkah knew that Prophet Muhammad can read and write meaning the idea that Prophet Muhammad cannot read and write is not from Allaah and not from Prophet Muhammad and not from the Quran but came from people who did not understand the meaning of lettered meaning educated in the scripture of Allaah and unlettered meaning not educated in the scripture of Allaah. 

See Quran 25:5 comment in Quran chapter 25.

Quran 2:283 Koran 2:283 Verse 2:283 Ayah 2:283 Ayat 2:283 Aya 2:283 And if you are on a journey and cannot find a person who is able to write, then let there be a pledge (in the form of goods) taken into possession (that will be returned when the loan is repaid), but if you trust each other, let the one who is trusted (to repay the loan they received) fulfill their trust (to repay their loan), and let him be afraid of Allaah, his Lord. And do not conceal testimony because whoever conceals it his heart is surely sinful. Allaah knows all that you do.

Comment 1. See Quran 2:282 comments.

 

Quran 2:284 Koran 2:284 Verse 2:284 Ayah 2:284 Ayat 2:284 Aya 2:284  To Allaah belongs all that is in the heavens and on earth. Whether you show what is in your minds or conceal it, you shall account for it to Allaah who shall forgive whom He (Allaah) pleases and punish whom He (Allaah) pleases, for Allaah has power over all things. 

 

Quran 2:285 Koran 2:285 Verse 2:285 Ayah 2:285 Ayat 2:285 Aya 2:285 The Messenger (Prophet Muhammad) believes in what has been revealed to him from his Lord (Allaah), as do the people of faith. Each one (of them) believes in Allaah, His (Allaah’s) angels, His (Allaah’s) books and His (Allaah’s) messengers. "We make no distinction between His (Allaah’s many) messengers (and Prophets)." And they (who have faith) say, "We hear, and we obey and (we seek) your forgiveness our Lord (Allaah) and to You (Allaah) is the end (of all journeys, of all destinations)."

Comment 1. See Quran 2:5 comments.

 

Quran 2:286 Koran 2:286 Verse 2:286 Ayah 2:286 Ayat 2:286 Aya 2:286 On no soul does Allaah place a burden greater than it can bear. It (your soul) gets every good (reward) that it earns and it (your soul) suffers every ill (sin) that it earns. (We pray), "Our Lord (Allaah), don’t condemn us if we forget (something) or fall into error (regarding something), Our Lord (Allaah), don’t lay on us a burden like that which you did lay on those before us (for example the burden of sin that comes from a belief not found in Judaism today, of the Jew 1400 years ago who said Ezra will save him and the burden of sin on some Christians today and 1400 years ago who said Jesus will save them instead of depending only on Allaah who created every creation), Our Lord, don’t lay on us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. Blot out our sins and grant us forgiveness. Have mercy on us. You are our protector. Help us against those (stone idol worshippers in Makkah) who stand against faith (in You our Lord)."


Interpretations of the Quran (Al-Quran, Al Quran, Koran).

 

This is an interpretation of some of the meanings in the Quran.

This is not a perfect translation of the Quran because the Quran is in the Arabic language.

The Arabic language in the Quran must be understood as it was understood over 1400 years ago.

Allaah guides who He wills to the correct understanding of the Quran.

In the English language the word Allaah is God.

Allaah (God) is the creator of the Jews, Christians, Muslims and everyone and everything that exists.
