A. Understanding why fighting today is not in the cause of God.

 

1. Fighting today is not in the cause of God.

The difference between Prophet Muhammad and terrorism.

Terrorists kill innocent Muslims and innocent non Muslims. 

Killing innocent Muslims and innocent non Muslims is forbidden in Islam.

 

Quran 5:32 Koran 5:32 From that time (humans were warned not to murder and) We (God) 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 (God’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 God 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 God the saving of one human life is a great deed because in the Judgment of God 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 God 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 God wills.

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

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

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 God.

 

Quran 48:25 Koran 48:25 They (the stone idol worshippers of Mecca Arabia today Makkah Saudi Arabia) are the ones who disbelieved (in God) and turned you (Prophet Muhammad) away from the Sacred Mosque (“the Sacred Mosque” is l-masjidi l-harami, Al-Masjid Al-Haraam in Makkah) and your offerings (of 70 camels to God 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 God to worship God at God’s Sacred Mosque in Makkah) if it were not that there were believing men and believing 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 God knew would occur) and so unknowingly you would have an evil deed against you, (However God stopped you from entering Makkah) so that God might bring to His (God’s) mercy whom He (God) 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 God) had been apart (so that only the wrongdoers who had sinned against God were present) then We (God) 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 God at the Sacred Mosque Al-Masjid Al-Haraam in Makkah).

Note 1. Fighting today is not in the cause of God.

Note 2. In Quran 48:25 human actions that will result in the sudden killing of innocent people together with wrongdoers is not acceptable in the sight of God.

Note 3. Every time a civilian is killed it is proof that such fighting has nothing to do with the teachings of God.

God forbids the killing of people who are not fighting.

Note 4. Every time an innocent person is killed it is proof that such fighting has nothing to do with the teachings of God.

God forbids the killing of innocent people.

Note 5. No one today takes the care needed so that their actions do not harm one innocent life because today there are no living prophets who are directly guided by God.

Note 6. Actions that do not protect every innocent human life are actions that are not for the cause of God.

Note 7. Fighting in the time of the prophets of God were in the cause of God because it was commanded and directed by God as revealed by His prophet meaning everything that happened were under the instructions of God as revealed by His prophet.

 

2. Fighting in the time of Prophet Muhammad and fighting today.

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 God 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.

The Quran is the history of how God inspired one man to replace the worship of stone idols with the worship of God.

We need to learn from all the verses in the Quran and know that the command from God for you and me today is the command to worship God and to be an example of goodness to the whole world.

The error of misunderstanding the Quran as a command for you and me to fight today would be the same error as a Jew misunderstanding the Torah Taurat as a command to fight today or a Christian misunderstanding the Gospel Injil as a command to fight today. 

The Torah is the history and commands given to Prophet Moses Musa and his people 3200 years ago which established Judaism. 

The Gospel is the history and commands given to Prophet Jesus Isa and his people 2000 years ago which established Christianity.

The Quran is the history and commands given to Prophet Muhammad and his people 1400 years ago which established Islam.

 

The command from God for me and you today in the Torah and Gospel and Quran is to worship God and learn from the recorded verses of history in the Books of God.

The command from God for me and you today in Judaism, Christianity and Islam is to worship God and learn from the knowledge that has been given to all humankind. 

Today there is no Holy war because only a prophet knows the will of God.

In all wars today no one fights for God because everyone is intentionally or unintentionally killing innocent people.

 

Today the righteous among the Jews, Christians and Muslims are the people who show kindness and charity and peace making. They are the best example of goodness to the whole world (Quran 4:114).

Quran 4:114 Koran 4:114 There is no good in most of their (the people’s) private conversation except in the person who calls for charity, kindness and peace making between humans, he (the person) who does this (charity, kindness and peace making between humans) and seeks the approval of God, We (God) shall give them a great reward (in Paradise Jannah in the Hereafter).

B. Introduction to fighting and killing in the Quran.

 

1. God tests humans to show who do good deeds and who do evil deeds in this world.

Quran 2:62 Koran 2:62 (In the hereafter) truly those (Muslims) who believed and those who became Jews, Christians and Sabians, whoever believed in God 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 God is saying in these verses confirming what is in the Hebrew Bible and the Gospel Injil of the promise of Paradise Jannah from God in the books of God on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement for those who “believed” and did good deeds. The Quran brings the same truth which God 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 God confirm each other as proof God 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 God is real and His promise is real).

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

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

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

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

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

Note 6. This revelation is so important that God 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,

God 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 God 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 God 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.

 

The good news message from God for Jews and Christians delivered 1400 years ago by Prophet Muhammad in Quran 28:54, Quran 34:37 and Quran 57:28.

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 the Gospel Injil are correctly observing the Quran.

 

Quran 28:53 Koran 28:53 And when it (the Quran) is recited to them (the Jews who truly believe the Torah Taurat and the Christians who truly believe the Gospel Injil), they (those Jews and Christians) say, “We believe in it (the Koran Quran). It is the truth from our Lord (God). Even before it (the Quran was revealed to us) we were of those (Jews and Christians) who submitted (to God. The English word submitter is the Arabic word Muslim. Islam the religion means submission and Muslim the believer means submitter. Submitter and submission for the Muslim people is in Quran 47:19 “…there is no God except God …” and submitter and submission for the Jewish people is in Torah Exodus 20:2 “.... You shall have no other gods before Me God” and submitter and submission for the Christian people is in the Gospel of Jesus Isa by Luke 4:8 “… You shall worship the Lord your God, and him only shall you serve” meaning God inspired the same belief of Islam which is an Arabic word meaning submission, to God in Judaism, Christianity, Islam and in others). - (Continued in Quran 28:54).

Note 1. The Quran confirms the Torah Taurat and explains the story of Jesus in the Gospel of Mark, Matthew, Luke and John.

 

Quran 28:54 Koran 28:54 They (the Jews who truly believe the Torah Taurat and the Christians who truly believe the Gospel Injil and also believe the Quran) shall be given their reward twice (in Quran 28:54 meaning twofold in Quran 34:37 meaning double in Quran 57:28) because they are steadfast (in their belief in God) and they repel evil with good (deeds) and they spend (in charity) from what We (God) have provided to them. (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 God 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).

Note 1. Jews and Christians who follow their book and also believe the Quran will receive their reward twice in the Hereafter.

 

Quran 34:37 Koran 34:37 It is not your wealth or your children that shall bring you close to Us (God), but the person who believes and does good (deeds). Theirs shall be a twofold reward (twice in Quran 28:54, twofold in Quran 34:37 and double in Quran 57:28) for what they (the Jews like Quran 3:113 - 3:115 and the Christians like Quran 5:82 - 5:85 who follow their Book in Quran 5:68 and also believe the Quran) did (because they believed the Quran which tells the Jewish people to follow the Torah Taurat which is their eternal covenant between God 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) and they (those Jews and Christians) shall live secure in the high dwellings (in Paradise Jannah).- (Continued in Quran 34:38).

Note 1. Jews and Christians who follow their Book and also believe the Quran will be given a twofold reward in the hereafter.

 

Quran 34:38 Koran 34:38 (Jews and Christians who followed their Book and also believed the Quran will receive their reward twice in Quran 28:54, twofold in Quran 34:37 and double in Quran 57:28 in the hereafter however) Those (Jews and the Christians who did not believe the Quran for example if Jews did not correctly observe the Torah Taurat by keeping the Sabbath Day which is their everlasting covenant with God in every generation forever or if Christians did not correctly observe the Gospel Injil where Prophet Jesus said he is not God "God is my God and your God" meaning God is my Lord and your Lord and "God is my Father and your Father" meaning God is my Creator and your Creator in Gospel of John 20:17 and) who strive against Our (God’s) revelations by trying to make them (God’s revelations) to fail (for example Jesus is the son of God means Jesus is the servant of God delivering the message of God so his mention with angels in Gospel of Mark 13:32 and Gospel of Matthew 24:36 means that angel messengers of God and human messengers of God both do not know the hour meaning do not confuse angel and human messengers with God because only God knows the hour but His angel and human messengers like Jesus and Moses and angels do not know the hour meaning pray only to God and not to the angel and human messengers of God because those who do), they shall be brought to the punishment (of Hell Jahannam in the Hereafter).

 

Quran 57:28 Koran 57:28 All you (the Jews and the Christians in Quran 57:27 and Quran 57:29) that believe, Fear God and believe in His (God’s) messenger and He (God) shall give you a double portion of His (God’s) mercy and provide for you a Light (of righteous knowledge meaning Jews who follow the Tanakh Jewish scripture and believe the Quran are correctly observing the Torah Taurat and meaning Christians who follow the Gospel and believe the Quran are correctly observing the Gospel Injil and Muslims who follow the Quran so that it agrees with the Tanakh Jewish scripture and the Gospel Injil are correctly observing the warning from God in Quran 4:136 that whoever has no faith in God’s Books has strayed far away from God because the Books of God are the light) by which you shall walk (on the correct path in Quran 2:40 - 2:41, Quran 4:136 and Quran 28:48 - 28:49) and (in the hereafter) He (God) shall forgive you (of your past sins). God is forgiving and merciful. (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 their reward twice in Quran 28:54, twofold in Quran 34:37 and double in Quran 57:28 in the hereafter 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 God 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). - (Continued in Quran 57:29).

Note 1. Jews and Christians who follow their Book and also believe the Quran will be given a double reward in the hereafter.

 

Quran 57:29 Koran 57:29 (Jews and Christians who followed their Book and also believed the Quran will receive their reward twice in Quran 28:54, twofold in Quran 34:37 and double in Quran 57:28 in the hereafter) so that the people of the Book (the Jews and the Christians who did not believe the Quran for example if Jews did not correctly observe the Torah Taurat by keeping the Sabbath Day which is their everlasting covenant with God in every generation forever or if Christians did not correctly observe the Gospel Injil where Prophet Jesus said he is not God "God is my God and your God" meaning God is my Lord and your Lord and "God is my Father and your Father" meaning God is my Creator and your Creator in Gospel of John 20:17 and that Jesus is the son of God means Jesus is the servant of God delivering the message of God so his mention with angels in Gospel of Mark 13:32 and Gospel of Matthew 24:36 means that angel messengers of God and human messengers of God both do not know the hour meaning do not confuse angel and human messengers with God because only God knows the hour but His angel and human messengers like Jesus and Moses and angels do not know the hour meaning pray only to God and not to the angel and human messengers of God because those who do) may know (in the hereafter) that they do not have power over anything from the bounty of God and that (all) the bounty is in God’s hand. He gives it (God's bounty) to whom He (God) wills. And God is the possessor of the great bounty (of Paradise Jannah).

 

Quran 4:40 Koran 4:40 God is not unjust not even as much as the weight of an atom (to people such as Jews and Christians and Muslims and all others). When any good (deed is done) He (God) doubles it (meaning God doubles the value of your good deeds) and He (God) gives a great reward (of Paradise Jannah in the hereafter).

Note 1. The good news from God for Muslims delivered 1400 years ago by Prophet Muhammad in Quran 2:265, Quran 4:40 and Quran 33:31 is that the reward to Muslims for doing good deeds is also doubled in the hereafter meaning the reward for every good deed they do in this world will be doubled in the hereafter.

 

Quran 42:15 Koran 42:15 So (Prophet Muhammad) invite (the people to God), and stay on the correct path as you (Prophet Muhammad) are commanded and do not follow their (the peoples) desires (concerning religion) but say, "I believe what God has sent down of the Book (in the Quran and in the Torah Taurat in Quran 2:41, Quran 3:3, Quran 3:93, Quran 5:43, Quran 5:44, Quran 5:68, Quran 20:133 and in the Gospel Injil in Quran 3:3, Quran 5:47, Quran 5:68 and Quran 20:133) and I am commanded that I do justice between you (the Jews, Christians and Muslims). God is our Lord and your Lord (meaning God is the Lord of the Muslims and the Lord of the Jews and the Christians). For us (Muslims is the responsibility for) our deeds and for you (Jews and Christians is the responsibility for) your deeds. There is no argument between us (Muslims) and between you (the Jews and the Christians because God has revealed the same message to all of us to worship God who created you and do good in the world and reject evil in the world). God shall bring us (Muslims and Christians and Jews and all humankind) together and to Him (God) is the final destination (in the hereafter in Quran 2:62, Quran 3:64, Quran 4:123, Quran 5:48 and Quran 5:69).”

Note 1. There is no argument between Muslims and Jews and Christians because the Tanakh Jewish scripture and the Gospel Injil and the Quran contain the same message to worship God and strive for all that is good.

 

Quran 28:51 Koran 28:51 And We (God) have made the Word (of God in the Quran) to reach them (the stone idol worshippers of Makkah Arabia) so that they might be reminded (of God, their creator).

 

Quran 28:48 Koran 28:48 But when the truth came to them (the stone idol worshippers of Makkah Arabia) from Us (God), they said, “Why is he (Prophet Muhammad M Mim م M-uhammad م-uhammad) not given (signs) like what was given to Prophet Moses Musa (represented by Mount Sinai S’ Sin س Sin-ai س-ai)? But did they (the stone idol worshippers of Makkah Arabia) not disbelieve in what was given to Prophet Moses Musa in the past? (Because) they say, “(They are both only books about magic) two magic (books the Torah Taurat T Ta ط Ta-urat ط-urat given by God to Prophet Moses Musa and the Quran Q Qaf ق  Qaf-uran ق-uran given by God to Prophet Muhammad) supporting each other” and they (the stone idol worshippers of Makkah Arabia) say, “In all (that is in the Torah Taurat and the Quran) we do not believe.”

 

Quran 28:49 Koran 28:49 Say (Prophet Muhammad to the stone idol worshippers of Makkah Arabia), “Then bring a Book from God that gives better guidance than these two (the Torah Taurat and the Quran) so that I (Prophet Muhammad) may follow it, if you are telling the truth.”

Note 1. The best guidance is the Quran and the Torah Taurat meaning both are correctly understood when they confirm and explain each other.

 

Quran 3:199 Koran 3:199 And there are among the people of the Scripture (the Jews and the Christians) those who believe in God and in that which has been revealed to you (Prophet Muhammad in the Quran) and revealed to them (in the Torah Taurat and in the Gospel Injil), (they) humble themselves to God. They do not trade away (abandon) the revelations of God for a little gain (by wrongly using the revelations of God to increase their pride or arrogance), for them is a reward with their Lord. God is quick to account (for what you do).

Note 1. The Quran confirms the Tanakh Jewish scripture is correct and explains the story of Prophet Jesus Isa in the Gospel of Mark, Matthew, Luke and John.

 

Quran 3:113 Koran 3:113 Not all of them (the Jews of Yathrib Arabia later Medina Arabia today Madinah Saudi Arabia) are the same, some of the people of the Scripture (the Jews of Yathrib) stand for what is right (correct) and they recite the revelations of God during the hours of the night prostrating themselves in prayer (to God).

 

Quran 3:114 Koran 3:114 Those (Jews of Yathrib) believe in God and the Last Day and they do what is right and forbid what is wrong and they are quick to do good deeds and they are among the righteous.

 

Quran 3:115 Koran 3:115 And whatever good they (the Jews of Yathrib) do, it shall be accepted and God knows very well who are the righteous (among the Jews of Yathrib).

Note 1. The righteous among the Jews were promised Paradise Jannah in the time of Prophet Muhammad and this promise would apply to the righteous among Jews worldwide. 

 

Quran 5:82 Koran 5:82 "... And you shall find that those who say, “We are Christians” have the most affection to the believers (of God, the Muslims in Yathrib Arabia). That is because the priests and monks are not proud (meaning they love God more than they love their pride).

 

 Quran 5:83 Koran 5:83 When they (the Christian priests and monks) listen to what has been revealed to the messenger (Prophet Muhammad), you shall see their eyes overflow with tears because they recognise it is the truth (from God). They say, “Our Lord (God), we believe, so write us as among the witnesses (that recognize the truth from God).” 

 

Quran 5:84 Koran 5:84 Why should we (Christian priests and monks) not have faith in God and in the truth that has come to us since we hope that our Lord (God) shall admit us (to paradise) with the righteous people? 

 

Quran 5:85 Koran 5:85 For what they (the Christian priests and monks) said they are rewarded with gardens with rivers flowing underneath (in Paradise) where they shall live forever. That is the reward for those (people) that do good.

Note 1. The righteous among the Christians were promised Paradise Jannah in the time of Prophet Muhammad and this promise would apply to the righteous among the Christians worldwide.

 

2. God tests humans to show who is destroying Mosques, Churches and Synagogues in this world.

Quran 2:114 Koran 2:114 And who is more unjust than those who prevent His name (the name of God) 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 of God” means any house for worshipping God including the houses of the Muslims and Christians and Jews who all mention the name of God meaning God has ordered the protection of the Mosque and the Church and the Synagogue where the name of God is mentioned see Quran 22:40). It is not for them (who prevent the name of God 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 God with the intention of worshipping God). For them (who prevent the name of God 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).

 

The worship of God in Zion 3030 years ago and in Makkah by Prophet Muhammad 1400 years ago.

Baca in Psalm 84:7 in Tanakh Jewish scripture or Psalm 84:6 in Christian bible and Bakkah in Quran 3:96 are places of tears for repentance to God.

Tanakh Jewish Bible Zabur Psalm 84:6 Happy is the man whose strength (of belief) is in you (God); in whose heart are the highways (that lead pilgrims to righteousness) -

Psalm 84:7 (Psalm 84:6 in Christian Bible) They (the pilgrims) pass through the Valley of Baca (The valley of tears), regarding it as a place of springs (of tears when they sincerely ask God to forgive their sins in Quran 91:1-10 like the sins of the messiah king David were forgiven in 2 Samuel 12:13, 1 Kings 3:14, 1 Kings 11:38 and 2 Kings 22:2, and with their tears make it), as if the early rain had covered it with blessing (knowing that a person who sincerely repents and corrects their behaviour is forgiven by God and is resurrected as a sinless person in Ecclesiastes 7:20, Proverbs 24:16, Ezekiel 18:22-23, Isaiah 1:18, Isaiah 1:27, Isaiah 55:7, Isaiah 56:1-2, Isaiah 59:20, Hosea 6:6, Hosea 14:2-14:3 and Micah 6:6-6:8).

Psalm 84:8 They (the pilgrims) go from strength to strength, every (time) one of them (the pilgrims) appears before God in Zion (meaning the site or place where the ark of the covenant of God which was given to Prophet Moses Musa was kept in the city of David Dawud 3030 years ago. Later in the time of King Solomon Sulaiman the city of David Dawud became Jerusalem Al-Quds and Zion was the site or place of the First Jewish Temple which would be built by King Solomon Sulaiman 2980 years ago in Jerusalem Al-Quds where the ark of the covenant of God was kept. Later Zion would be the site of the Second Jewish Temple which would be built on the site of the destroyed First Jewish Temple. Later Zion would mean all of Jerusalem, Al-Quds).

 

3. God tests humans to show who is transgressing the legal limits of acceptable behavior.

Quran 2:190 Koran 2:190 And fight in the way of God (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 God has imposed on you in Quran 4:93 where God promises Hell Jahannam forever to the Muslim who kills one innocent Muslim and Quran 5:32 where God 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). God does not like the transgressors (meaning people who make actions that God 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). 

 

4. Fighting in the Quran started from the oppression of Muslims in Makkah by the stone idol worshippers in Makkah..

Quran 2:191 Koran 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 “God 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 God 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).

 

5. God tests humans to show who understands that fighting is not against people who are not fighting.

Quran 2:192 Koran 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). God is forgiving and Most Merciful.

 

6. Fighting in the Quran started from the oppression of Muslims in Makkah by the stone idol worshippers in Makkah..

Quran 2:193 Koran 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 God (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).

 

7. God tests humans to show who do good deeds and who do evil deeds in this world.

Quran 2:195 Koran 2:195 And spend (time, property and wealth) in the way of God (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, indeed, God loves the good-doers.

 

8. Fighting in the Quran started from the oppression of Muslims in Makkah by the stone idol worshippers in Makkah.

Quran 2:216 Koran 2:216 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) is prescribed for you while it is hateful to you (because for 13 years Muslims in Makkah have patiently and peacefully accepted persecution because 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 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 God”). God 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 God if the can and return Muslims to the worship of stone statues if they can).

 

9. Fighting in the Quran started from the oppression of Muslims in Makkah by the stone idol worshippers in Makkah..

Quran 2:217 Koran 2:217 They (the people with faith in God) ask you (Prophet Muhammad, what to do) concerning fighting in the sacred (holy) month. 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 the sacred month is a great sin but a bigger sin in the sight of God (committed by the stone idol worshippers in Makkah) is to hinder people from the way of God and not to believe in Him (God the creator of every creation) and to (block access to) the sacred Mosque (“and the sacred Mosque” 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 “God 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 God 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 God if they can. And those of you who turn away from your faith (in God) and die disbelieving (in God), 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).

 

10. If the Jews and the Christians and others worship only God like the Muslims worship only God then the Jews and the Christians and others are correctly guided by God.

Quran 3:64 Koran 3:64 Say, “O People of the Scripture (the Jews and the Christians) let us come to an agreement between you and us (Muslims), that we shall worship no one but God, and that we shall ascribe no partner to Him (meaning, there is only one God, we pray only to our creator the one God and no one else, not to sons, not to saints, not to any idol), and that none of us shall take others for Lords instead of God.” And if they turn away, then say, “Bear witness that we have submitted to Him (God).” 

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

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

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

 

11. Any human in any religion who submits only to God like the Muslims submit only to God is correctly guided by God.

Quran 3:85 Koran 3:85 And whoever seeks a religion other than submission (to Allah Adonai Allaah Elohim G-d Allah HaShem Jehovah Yahweh YHWH which includes every human from the beginning of time until the end of time, for example stone idol worship) it shall not be accepted by Him (God) in the Hereafter and (such a person) shall be one of the losers (in the hereafter. The word Islam has two meanings, the general meaning is submission in Quran 3:85 meaning anyone who submits to God).

Note 1. The Muslim religion Islam is the religion of submission to God (Quran 3:64).

Note 2. The Jewish religion Judaism is the religion of submission to God (Quran 3:64).

Note 3. The Christian religion Christianity is the religion of submission to God (Quran 3:64). 

Note 4. Islam means submission and the Quran tells the Jews to observe the Sabbath Day meaning all Jews who observe the Sabbath Day are submitting to God which means the word in Quran 3:85 is submission otherwise it would contradict other verses in the Quran and the Quran says it has no contradictions.

This means only one word "submission" is correct because it is the word with which there are no contradictions in the Quran.

 

Quran 3:85 Koran 3:85 And whoever seeks a religion other than submission (to Adonai Allah Elohim God G-d HaShem Jehovah Yahweh YHWH which includes every human from the beginning of time until the end of time, for example stone idol worship) it shall not be accepted by Him (God) in the Hereafter and (such a person) shall be one of the losers (in the hereafter. Islam has two meanings, the general meaning is submission in Quran 3:85 meaning anyone who submits to God such as Prophet Abraham Ibrahim in the past and the Jews who are promised Paradise Jannah in the time of Prophet Muhammad in Quran 3:113 – 3:115 and the Christians who are promised Paradise Jannah in the time of Prophet Muhammad in Quran 5:82 – 5:85 and all humans in future in the hereafter who “believed” and did good deeds including Jews and Christians and others in Quran 2:62, Quran 5:69 and Quran 6:158. 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 God tells us is the last verse in the Quran because God says He has “perfected and completed” the religion meaning the Quran and approved the name of the religion as “Islam” in Quran 5:3. This confirms that the meaning of Islam in Quran 3:85 is the general meaning “submission” meaning every human from the beginning of time until the Day of Resurrection who submitted to God and did good deeds will be successful in the hereafter as confirmed in Quran 2:62, Quran 5:69, Quran 6:158 and Quran 41:8 showing that the correct meaning of this verse is “whoever seeks a religion other than submission.” If God was talking only to the stone idol worshippers in the time of a living prophet then “whoever seeks a religion other than Islam” would not contradict any verses because it is directed to one people at one time however as a general statement for all time the meaning “whoever seeks a religion other than submission” would be used because it does not contradict the other verses in the Quran which confirm the promise of Paradise Jannah which is in the Jewish Bible for all time for Jews who obey Torah Exodus 20:2 “.... You shall have no other gods before Me God” and for the Christians in the Gospel Injil of Jesus Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John for all time for Christians who obey Gospel of Jesus Isa by Luke 4:8 “… You shall worship the Lord your God, and him only shall you serve” meaning “God is one” not “three persons in one” and promise in the Quran for all time for Muslims who obey Quran 47:19 “…there is no God except God …” meaning pray only to God and do good deeds. God explains that in the time of Prophet Muhammad God ordered more than one “community” of God to submit to God in Quran 5:48 meaning Judaism and Christianity and Islam will always exist because God has decreed it. God tells Prophet Muhammad to order the Jews and the Christians and the Muslims “to strive for all that is good” in Quran 5:48 using what “God has given” to each of them meaning God has protected the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil and the Koran Quran as proof God is real and as proof the Quran is the truth as explained in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQ3o3ybc-KA so that God can show which people within and between each community is the best in behaviour. God says “you shall all return” meaning God will judge the Jews and the Christians and the Muslims justly and fairly on the basis of the order “to strive for all that is good” which God told Prophet Muhammad to deliver to the Jews and the Christians and the Muslims in Quran 5:48 meaning God did not cancel Judaism and Christianity instead Quran 5:48 and the other verses confirm the promise of Paradise Jannah to every human who “believed” and did good deeds on the earth. God has not cancelled the Jewish religion of submission to God and the Christian religion of submission to God is made clear in Quran 5:5 where God says “the food of the Jews is lawful to the Muslims and the food of the Muslims is lawful to the Jews.” Marriage between Muslim men and Jewish and Christian women is lawful meaning God did not cancel Judaism or Christianity. God calls for each generation of Jews and Christians and Muslims and others to come together and testify their submission to God meaning all of them are religions submitting to God in Quran 3:64 as decreed by God in Quran 5:48). 

 

12. God tests humans to show who is transgressing the legal limits of acceptable behavior.

Quran 4:93 Koran 4:93 Whoever kills a believer (in God) 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 God's wrath will fall on him and He (God will) curse him and He (God) 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 God see Quran 5:32. Quran 6:158 confirms that "... belief in God 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 God without doing good deeds is a false belief in God meaning belief in God with good deeds is true belief in God).

 

13. God tests humans to show who do good deeds and who do evil deeds in this world.

Quran 4:123 Koran 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 God (in the hereafter).  

Note 1. God will judge Muslims and Christians and Jews fairly in the Hereafter.

 

14. God tests humans to show who do good deeds and who do evil deeds in this world.

Quran 5:2 Koran 5:2 "... Help each other in goodness and righteousness but do not help each other in evil and crime. ..."

 

15. God tests humans to show who is transgressing the legal limits of acceptable behavior.

Quran 5:32 Koran 5:32 From that time (humans were warned not to murder and) We (God) 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 (God’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 God 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 God the saving of one human life is a great deed because in the Judgment of God 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 God 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 God wills.

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

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

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 God.

 

16. God tests humans to show who is transgressing the legal limits of acceptable behavior.

Today there are no prophets of God however when they existed people were warned not to fight them.

Quran 5:33 Koran 5:33 (After Quran 5:32 was revealed "... many people continued to commit great crimes by killing humans unlawfully in the land therefore whoever thinks about disobeying the warning in Quran 5:32 not to kill a soul but to save it should remember this warning that) The only recompense (the only result) for those (like the Pharaoh Firon) who wage war (against) God and His Messenger (Prophet Moses Musa) and strive in the earth spreading corruption is that they (the Pharaoh Firon) be killed (because the Pharaoh Firon killed innocent people violating Quran 5:32 revealed to the children of Israel and now revealed to the Muslims) or they (the Pharaoh Firon) be crucified (because the Pharaoh Firon crucified innocent people violating Quran 5:32 revealed to the children of Israel and now revealed to the Muslims) or be cut off their hands and their feet on opposite sides (of the body because the Pharaoh Firon cut off the hands and the feet on opposite sides of the body of innocent people violating Quran 5:32 revealed to the children of Israel and now revealed to the Muslims) or they (the Pharaoh Firon) be exiled from the land (because the Pharaoh Firon exiled innocent people from the land violating Quran 2:84 revealed to the children of Israel and now revealed to the Muslims). That is disgrace for them (the Pharaoh Firon) in the world and for them is a great punishment in the Hereafter. – (Continued in Quran 5:34) 

 

Today there are no prophets of God however when they existed people were warned not to fight them.

Quran 73:15 Verse 73:15 We (God) have sent to you (the stone idol worshippers of Makkah) a messenger (Prophet Muhammad) as a witness (to testify to the truth of God) to you, just like the messenger (Prophet Moses Musa whom) We (God) sent to Pharaoh Firon (the King of Egypt).

 

17. God tests humans to show who do good deeds and who do evil deeds in this world.

Quran 5:34 Koran 5:34 Except those who repent before you overpower them, so know that God is Forgiving and Most Merciful (but the Pharaoh Firon did not sincerely repent although God gave him many chances to sincerely repent before overpowering him in the waters of the Red Sea).

 

18. God tests humans to show who had the right to retaliate but did not retaliate but instead they followed in the way of God’s recommended mercy because they love God more than they love retaliation.

Quran 5:45 Koran 5:45 (And in the Torah Taurat) We (God) 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 (God) 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 God’s recommended mercy). Whoever does not judge by what God has revealed are wrong doers.

 

19. God tests humans to show who is the best in behaviour among the Muslims and among the Christians and among the Jews.

Quran 5:48 Koran 5:48 And to you (Prophet Muhammad) We (God) revealed the Scripture (the Quran) with the truth that confirmed the Scripture that was before it (in the Gospel Injil and the Torah Taurat) and (for you Prophet Muhammad to be) a guardian over it (the Quran). So judge between them (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) by what God has revealed (to you Prophet Muhammad) and do not let their desires move you away from the truth that has come to you. For each (community of Jews, Christians and Muslims) We (God) have appointed a divine law and a way (of religion). If God willed He (God) could have made you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) one community. But He (God) tests you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) by what He (God) 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 God you shall all return and He (God) 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. God does not require humans to all be in one religion (Quran 5:48).

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

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

Note 4. God commands the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims to do what is good according to what God 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. God says that on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement in the hereafter every human will return to God and God shall inform them about the religious matters about which they argued.

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

Note 7. God 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 God. 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 God described in 1 Kings 13:14 - 13:24 teaching that the word of God 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. God 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 God (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 God Judaism and Christianity and Sabians and Islam are “different communities of God” because they were all created by God for only one reason which is “to submit to God.”

Note 12. Why will God reward the Jews and the Christians and anyone who believed in God and did good deeds in Quran 2:62 and Quran 5:69 when they did not follow Prophet Muhammad and the Quran? 

God explains in Quran 5:48 that the Jews and the Christians are following the Books God has given them. 

 

Quran 5:48 Koran 5:48 “... For each (community of Jews, Christians and Muslims) We (God) have appointed a divine law and a way (of religion). If God willed He (God) could have made you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) one community. But He (God) tests you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) by what He (God) 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 God you shall all return and He (God) 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 11. Quran 3:93 Koran 3:93 Before the Torah Taurat was revealed all food (eaten by Prophet Abraham Ibrahim) was lawful to the Children of Israel, except what Prophet Jacob Yaqub Israel made unlawful for himself (which was the eating of the sinew of the thigh that is on the hip socket as a remembrance of the day he struggled with an angel of God and was injured on his thigh and was given the name Israel). Say (Prophet Muhammad, to the Jews of Yathrib), "Bring the Torah Taurat here and recite it (to me as evidence) if what you say (when you say that what Prophet Jacob Yaqub Israel made unlawful for himself had always been forbidden by God) is true (meaning show proof in the Torah Taurat that God forbids eating the sinew of the thigh that is on the hip socket before the time when Prophet Jacob Yaqub Israel made it unlawful for himself in other words Prophet Muhammad is explaining why God has not prohibited this food for the Muslims)." 

 

Note 12. Quran 4:136 Koran 4:136 “... and whoever has no faith in His (God’s) Books, … then he has strayed far away (from God).

 

Note 13. Quran 30:30 Koran 30:30 “…. No one can alter what God 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 14. Until the Day of Judgement God protects the Torah Taurat with the Jews and the Gospel Injil with the Christians and the Quran with the Muslims as proof God is real so that no Muslim or Christian or Jew can say in the Hereafter that they were misguided by the Books of God.

20. God tests humans to show who do good deeds and who do evil deeds in this world.

Quran 5:69 Koran 5:69 (In the hereafter) truly those (Muslims) who believed and those who became Jews, Christians and Sabians, whoever believed in God 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 God is saying in these verses confirming what is in the Hebrew Bible and the Gospel Injil of the promise of Paradise Jannah from God in the books of God on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement for those who “believed” and did good deeds. The Quran brings the same truth which God 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 God confirm each other as proof God 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 God is real and His promise is real).

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

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

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

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

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

Note 6. This revelation is so important that God has repeated it in Quran 2:62

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,

God 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 God 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 God 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.

 

21. God tests humans to show who understands that belief in God without doing good deeds in this world is a false belief in God.

Quran 6:158 Koran 6:158 "... belief in it (God 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). ....”

Note 1. No one can enter Paradise Jannah without good deeds in this world.

Note 2. Satan Shaitan is not going to Paradise Jannah because his deeds in this world are evil deeds.

Note 3. Belief in God without doing good deeds in this world is a false belief in God.

Note 4. Satan Shaitan is not going to Paradise Jannah because Satan Shaitan does evil deeds in this world meaning he has a false belief in God.

 

22. God tests humans to show who understands that no one is responsible for a wrong except the person who did the wrong.

Quran 6:164 Koran 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).

Note 1. A person in one religion cannot be blamed for the sin made by another person in their religion.

Note 2. A person from one country cannot be blamed for the sin made by other person from their country.

 

23. The Quran tells how idol worship was replaced by the worship of God 1400 years ago to establish Islam in Makkah Arabia today in Saudi Arabia in the same way as the Torah Taurat tells how idol worship was replaced by the worship of God 3200 years ago to establish Judaism in Canaan today in Israel and Palestine.

Quran 9:28 Koran 9:28 All you who believe. The (stone) idol worshippers are impure (in their worship) so do not let them come near the sacred Mosque (“Sacred Mosque” is l-masjida l-harhama, the Kabah in Mecca Makkah) after this (their last) year (of stone idol worship at the Kabah in Mecca Makkah see Quran 9:28 and Quran 9:29). (The people of Makkah obtained a great income each year when stone idol worshippers all over Arabia brought their stone statues to the sacred Kabah and so it is revealed) if you fear poverty (of trade because the stone idol worshippers shall not be allowed to gather together to worship stones at the Kabah in Mecca Makkah) then soon God shall enrich you (by giving to you) from His (God’s) bounty if He (God) wills (as explained by proclaiming the pilgrimage for God to the Kabah in Makkah in Quran 22:27). God is all knowing and wise (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).

 

24. God tests humans to show who understands that fighting is not against people who are not fighting.

 

25. The Quran tells how idol worship was replaced by the worship of God 1400 years ago to establish Islam in Makkah Arabia today in Saudi Arabia in the same way as the Torah Taurat tells how idol worship was replaced by the worship of God 3200 years ago to establish Judaism in Canaan today in Israel and Palestine.

Quran 9:29 Koran 9:29 (Revealed in 9 AH) Fight those (stone idol worshippers) who do not believe in God nor in the Last Day (if they fight you). And (fight those hypocrites among the Muslims) who do not make unlawful what God and His Messenger has made unlawful (if they fight you). And (fight those) who do not acknowledge the religion of the truth from among those who were given the Scripture (meaning the Christians and the Jews if they fight you) until they willingly pay (the yearly tax for non-Muslims called Jizya, Jizyah, Cizye, Gaziyat instead of the religious tax paid by Muslims called Zakah, Zakat) while they are subdued (meaning while Jews and Christians are living peacefully under the authority of the living messenger of God and his appointed governors in lands under Islamic rule).

 

Comment 1. The meaning of the word used in Quran 9:29 is subdue because peace is achieved by subduing people from fighting so they are happy and have no reason to fight.

In Quran 9:29 the purpose of subduing people who are fighting is peace and not to humiliate or disgrace because that makes the subduer become arrogant and misuse their power unjustly against peaceful people who are non Muslim citizens of a Muslim state.

The meaning in Quran 9:29 is “while they are subdued”, not disgraced and not humiliated and not abased meaning Jews and Christians and Muslims live together peacefully paying tax which allows the state to provide service to every citizen because Islam guarantees freedom of belief.

 

Quran   Word         Meaning 

(7:13)        l-ṣāghirīna  the disgraced ones (referring to the expulsion of Satan Shaitan from Heaven). 

(7:119:4)   ṣāghirīna    humiliated (referring to the Egyptian magicians who were humiliated by Prophet Mose Musa). 

(9:29:29)   ṣāghirūna   while they (are) subdued (meaning Jews and Christians who live peacefully under the authority of the living messenger of God and his appointed governors in lands under Islamic rule will receive the protection and benefits of a citizen). 

(12:32)      l-ṣāghirīna  those who are disgraced (referring to the threat by a married woman to disgrace Prophet Joseph Yusuf). 

(27:37:13) ṣāghirūna   (will be) abased (referring to the threat by Prophet Solomon Sulaiman to send an army to abase meaning humble the Queen of Sheba. 

 

Quran 2:256 Koran 2:256 There is no compulsion in religion …” 

Quran 5:8 Koran 5:8 “... do not let (your) hatred of a people make you act unjustly. Act justly, that is nearer to righteousness and fear God. God is aware of what you do.” 

 

Comment 2. Explain Quran 9:29. 

Quran 9:29 Koran 9:29 (Quran 2:190 And fight … those who fight you …”, Quran 2:194 “… whoever transgressed on you then you may transgress on them in the same manner …” and Quran 9:13 “… Shall you not fight a people who … began to fight you first …” meaning God does not allow fighting people who are not fighting you and who are not supporting people who are fighting you. It was revealed in 9 AH that the Army of the Roman Byzantine Empire will come to you if you do not go to Tabruk and secure the loyalty of the communities on the Arabian Syrian border so) Fight those who do not believe in God nor in the Last Day (meaning fight stone idol worshippers if they fight you on the Arabian Syrian border. Those who “do not believe in God nor in the Last Day” in Quran 9:18 – 9:19 are the stone idol worshippers who are to be fought in Quran 9:36 if they fight you). And (fight those) who do not make unlawful what God and His Messenger has made unlawful (meaning fight the Muslim hypocrites if they fight you. Those who “do not make unlawful what is unlawful” in Quran 9:47 - 9:51 and Quran 9:67 are the hypocrites who swear they are Muslim in Quran 9:56 who are to be fought “by our hands” in Quran 9:52 if they fight you). And (fight those) who do not acknowledge the religion of the truth (delivered to them 1400 years ago by a living prophet of God in Quran 9:33 reminding the Christians that “God is one God” not “three in one” in Quran 9:31 meaning do not pray to Mary or Jesus or saints but pray only to God like Moses and Jesus and Mary prayed only to God in all the four Gospels as explained in the Gospel of Mark 12:29 and reminding the Christians that “son of God” only means servant of God in Quran 19:93, Torah Exodus 4:22-4:23 and in the Gospel Injil of Jesus Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John and explained in Gospel of John 1:12 - 1:13. “The only begotten son” means the servant of God with the supreme authority to speak in the name of God to the people in his time as explained in Gospel of Luke 24:19 and confirmed in Torah Deuteronomy 18:15 and 18:18. God teaches that Jesus is not God or part of God in Gospel of Mark 13:32 and Gospel of Matthew 24:36 however 1400 year ago some Christians claimed Jesus is a real begotten son meaning a real biological son of God in a Christian belief called Arianism where Jesus was begotten after God who was not begotten and denied in Quran 19:88 – 19:93 and another belief called Trinity where God and Jesus always existedmeaning Jesus is God which is denied in Quran 4:171 – 4:172. God reminded the Jews in Arabia that all power on the Day of Judgement belongs to God in Quran 9:32 and Quran 9:34 – 9:35 because among the Jews in Arabia were some who were the only Jews in history to claim they will be saved by Prophet Ezra Uzair in the hereafter. They imitated the words spoken by some Christians who claim Jesus will save Christians in the hereafter. Those among the Jews in Arabia said their words of imitation in Quran 9:30 – 9:32 as a way of saying they did not need Prophet Muhammad because Prophet Ezra Uzair will save them. However the truth about God is that those who believed the message delivered by Moses Musa and Ezra Usair and Jesus Isa and Muhammad all believed the same message that “God is one God” and that it is the belief in this message which is delivered by every messenger of God and the doing of good deeds on the earth that saves people in the hereafter if in the hereafter they “believed” as taught in Quran 2:62, Quran 5:69 and Quran 6:158 which is also in the Scripture of them who are) from among those who were given the Scripture (meaning the Christians and the Jews meaning fight the Christians if they fight you on the Arabian Syrian border and also the Jews if they fight you) until they willingly pay (the yearly tax for non-Muslims called Jizya, Jizyah, Cizye, Gaziyat instead of the religious tax paid by Muslims called Zakah, Zakat) while they are subdued (meaning while Jews and Christians are living peacefully under the authority of the living messenger of God and his appointed governors in lands under Islamic rule as authorized in Quran 5:48 “And to you” Prophet Muhammad “We” God “revealed the Scripture” the Quran “with the truth that confirmed the Scripture that was before it” in the Gospel Injil and the Torah Taurat “and” for you Prophet Muhammad to be “a guardian over it” the Quran. “So judge between them” the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims “by what God has revealed” to you Prophet Muhammad “and do not let their desires move you away from the truth that has come to you.” “For each” community of Jews, Christians and Muslims “We” God “have appointed a divine law and a way” to God. “If God willed He” God “could have made you” the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims “one community. But He” God “tests you” the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims “by what He” God “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 God you shall all return and He” God “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” as explained in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQ3o3ybc-KA   Quran 5:48 and Quran 9:29 revealed how Muslims and Christians and Jews would live together from 9 AH during the life time of Prophet Muhammad and his governors so that the truth brought in the Quran could be compiled and written and distributed to benefit all Muslims and Christians and Jews and humankind by confirming the truth of the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil of Jesus Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John for every generation of Muslim and Christian and Jew and others until the Day of Judgement as explained in Quran 9:32 – 9:33. Around 20 years after the death of Prophet Muhammad the Quran in the form we have today was compiled and written and distributed in the same way as all Scriptures are compiled and written and distributed in their completed form after the death of a prophet by his follows. The Quran established the principle of freedom of religion 1300 years before the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights in Quran 2:256, Quran 3:159, Quran 4:137, Quran 5:54, Quran 10:99 – 10:100, Quran 18:29, Quran 28:54, Quran 50:45, Quran 88:21 - 88:26 and Quran 109:2 –109:6. In Quran 3:64 God has called for Jews, Christians and Muslims and others to come together in each generation to testify their submission to God meaning God calls for Jews, Christians and Muslims and others to help each other as brothers and sisters in the “community of God” so that they might give a good example of the best behaviour between humans to those in the world who do not know God). 

See Quran 9:29 comments in Quran chapter 9.

 

26. God tests humans to show who do good deeds and who do evil deeds in this world.

Quran 11:113 Koran 11:113 And do not incline to those (people) who do wrong (by doing the wrong that they do) incase the Fire (of punishment in Hell Jahannam in the Hereafter) touches you. You have no protectors except God (in the hereafter but if you incline to those who do what is wrong by doing the wrong that they do), then you shall not be helped (by the protection of God in the hereafter).

 

27. Fighting in the Quran started from the oppression of Muslims in Makkah by the stone idol worshippers in Makkah.

Quran 22:39 Koran 22:39 Permission is given to those (believers in Yathrib Madinah) who fight (the stone idol worshippers in Makkah) because they were wronged (when they fled their homes in Makkah because of religious persecution and everything they owned in Makkah was taken by the stone idol worshippers in Makkah. 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. 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). God is able to give them (believers) victory. – (Continued in Quran 22:40). 

 

28. Fighting in the Quran started from the oppression of Muslims in Makkah by the stone idol worshippers in Makkah.

29. God tests humans to show who is protecting Mosques, Churches and Synagogues in this world.

Quran 22:40 Koran 22:40 (They are) those (believers in Yathrib Madinah) who have been evicted from their homes unjustly (by the stone idol worshippers in Mecca Arabia today Makkah Saudi Arabia) only because they said, “Our Lord is God.” (Fighting is sometimes necessary because) had it not been that God checks (by limiting the evil that) the people (do), (when) some of them (who desire to do evil are stopped) by others (of the people who desire to do goodness) then surely monasteries and churches and synagogues and mosques in which the name of God is often mentioned would have been demolished (“monasteries” is sawamiʿu, “and churches” is wabiyaʿun, “and synagogues” is wasalawatun, “and mosques” is wamasajidu). God helps the one who helps Him (God, by protecting every monastery, church, synagogue and mosque where God is worshipped. 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 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 here https://sites.google.com/view/islamandthekoran/understanding-fighting-in-the-koran  ). God is strong and almighty.

 

30. God tests humans to show who understands that no one is responsible for a wrong except the person who did the wrong.

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

Note 1. A person in one religion cannot be blamed for the sin made by another person in their religion.

Note 2. A person from one country cannot be blamed for the sin made by other person from their country.

 

31. God tests humans to show who understands that belief in God without doing good deeds in this world is a false belief in God.

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

Note 1. No one can enter Paradise Jannah without good deeds in this world.

Note 2. Satan Shaitan is not going to Paradise Jannah because his deeds in this world are evil deeds.

Note 3. Belief in God without doing good deeds in this world is a false belief in God.

Note 4. Satan Shaitan is not going to Paradise Jannah because Satan Shaitan does evil deeds in this world meaning he has a false belief in God.

 

32. Fighting in the Quran started from the oppression of Muslims in Makkah by the stone idol worshippers in Makkah. 

Quran 47:4 Koran 47:4 When you meet (in the field of battle) those who disbelieve (meaning the stone idol worshippers of Makkah) then strike the necks (meaning slay them, fight them, battle with them 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) until they are subdued (in the battle), then (take captives and) tie them securely, and afterwards either make a favour (by freeing them with no conditions) or ransoming (them) when the war ends (prisoner exchange). That (is the command of God). And if God had willed, He (God) could have taken vengeance on them (Himself), but (God decreed) to test some of you by means of others. And those who are killed in the cause of God He (God) shall not waste their deeds. (This verse was revealed 1,400 years ago when there were no guns. In battle people used swords to fight and the most vulnerable part of the body was the neck in the same way that today those that use guns are trained to shoot at the body which is the biggest and therefore the easiest target. 1,400 years ago it was the Army that was well trained in the use of the sword that could better survive hand to hand close combat during a battle in the field).



C. God is the true judge of belief and not humans.

The use and misuse of places of worship.

The places of worship like the Mosque, Church, Synagogue are only for Allah Adonai Allaah Elohim God G-d Jehovah Yahweh YHWH. 

Quran 9:107 Koran 9:107 And those (Arab hypocrites in Yathrib Madinah) who take a mosque (“a mosque” is masjidan, a masjid) for causing harm and for disbelief and for division among the believers and as a station (a place) for whoever before (today among the Arab hypocrites had) warred against God and His messenger (Prophet Muhammad). They will swear, "We do not wish anything except the good." But God bears witness they are liars. (A mosque “Masjidan” is used two times in the Quran, the other is in Quran 18:21 where the word “masjidan” means “a place of worship” and “a church” and shows the incorrect decision to build a church on top of a grave in Ephesus in Turkey see Quran 18:21 comments here https://sites.google.com/view/islamandthekoran/quran-chapter-18-surah-18  Regarding the misuse of a mosque in Quran 9:107 or any place of worship God says in Quran 9:108 “Never stand in such a mosque” and in Quran 9:109 it is God in the hereafter who judges humans and punishes humans for the misuse of places of worship. No human today has the knowledge of a prophet meaning it is not for a human to judge others for their belief or to punish others for their belief instead God has ordered protection for every house of worship in Quran 2:114 and Quran 22:40 and God will be the judge on the Day of Judgement because no one except God knows what will be the belief of each human at their time of death meaning God is the true judge of belief and not humans).

 

Quran 9:108 Koran 9:108 - Never stand (for pray) in it (the mosque of the Arab hypocrites in Yathrib Madinah in Quran 9:107). A Mosque (“a Mosque” is lamasjidun) founded on righteousness from the first day (of its construction) is more worthy that you stand (for prayer) in it. In it are men who love to purify (clean) themselves (of sin through righteous behaviour). God loves the ones who purify themselves (of sin through righteous behaviour. In the three uses in the Quran of the word “a mosque” also meaning “a place of worship” the word “lamasjidun” is used once meaning “a mosque” when describing a mosque used for righteousness in Quran 9:108 and the word “masjidan” is used twice in the Quran firstly to mean “a mosque” when describing a mosque which is misused by unrighteous behaviour in Quran 9:107, and in Quran 18:21 “masjidan” means “a place of worship” and “a church” when describing a church which is misused to pray to the dead people on top of which it was built making people forget that only God has the power to hear prayer see Quran 72:18. Regarding the misuse of a mosque in Quran 9:107 or any place of worship God says in Quran 9:108 “Never stand in such a mosque” and in Quran 9:109 it is God in the hereafter who judges humans and punishes humans for the misuse of places of worship. No human today has the knowledge of a prophet meaning it is not for a human to judge others for their belief or to punish others for their belief instead God has ordered protection for every house of worship in Quran 2:114 and Quran 22:40 and God will be the judge on the Day of Judgement because no one except God knows what will be the belief of each human at their time of death meaning God is the true judge of belief and not humans).

 

Quran 72:18 Koran 72:18 And the places of worship (“the places of worship” is l-masajida, the masjids. In Quran 9:107 “Masjidan” means “a mosque.” In Quran 18:21 “Masjidan” means “a place of worship” and “a church.” In Quran 17:1 the ruins of the first and second Jewish Temples in Zion meaning the Temple Mountain, Temple Mount in Jerusalem Al-Quds 1400 years ago was called “the farthest mosque” meaning Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa and in Quran 17:7 the Jewish Temple in Zion in Jerusalem Al-Quds is called “Mosque” meaning place of worship) are only for God, so do not pray to anyone except God. (Regarding the misuse of a mosque in Quran 9:107 or any place of worship God says in Quran 9:108 “Never stand in such a mosque” and in Quran 9:109 it is God in the hereafter who judges humans and punishes humans for the misuse of places of worship. No human today has the knowledge of a prophet meaning it is not for a human to judge others for their belief or to punish others for their belief instead God has ordered protection for every house of worship in Quran 2:114 and Quran 22:40 and God will be the judge on the Day of Judgement because no one except God knows what will be the belief of each human at their time of death meaning God is the true judge of belief and not humans).


D. The difference between fighting in the way of God and misguided fighting.

1. Fighting in “the cause of God” is not for your own individual causes like power, wealth, greed, pride, envy and other reasons that are really about your own human causes and not about God only.

 

2. Prophet Muhammad was rightly guided by God because he was a prophet who received instructions directly from God.

 

3. Today no one has shown the same wisdom and authority as Prophet Muhammad who understood the difference between “the cause of God” and “human causes.”

 

4. Today no one has spoken words that every Muslim would recognise as “fighting for the cause of God”; instead it is clear that fighting today is only “for the cause of humans” because Muslims are killing Muslims in Muslim lands and in Mosques and outside Mosques.

 

5. Today there is no behaviour that every Muslim would recognise as “fighting for the cause of God”; instead it is clear that fighting today is only “for the cause of humans” because everyone is killing innocent people both intentionally and unintentionally.

 

6. Those today using the words “fighting for the cause of God” might (only God knows) be asked in the hereafter:

Why did you kill innocent Muslims and innocent Non Muslims?

Why did you kill women and children?

Why did you kill people that were not fighting you?

Why did you kill in the holy month of Ramadan?

Why did you kill people when they walked out of a mosque or inside a church?

And for these questions they shall have no answer, except that they were wrongly guided.

So they shall really be blaming God, because God guides everyone.

God knows why some are made to be wrongly guided but the wrongly guided do not know and they say that what they do is for God but their interest is really for themselves and they have no real understanding of God because they have no kindness and no mercy for God’s creation or respect for God’s best creations which includes the humans.

 

7. Those today who say they are “fighting for the cause of God” might (only God knows) be asked in the hereafter:

a. Why after Prophet Muhammad succeeded to remove the persecution of your religion did you not continue the work of Prophet Muhammad in “the cause of God” to fight Satan Shaitan (the Devil) by being the best example of kindness and mercy to all humankind?

  b. Instead of fighting in the selfish causes of humans why did you not travel around the world and talk with all humans about the message of the last prophet of God?”

  c. The enemy of humans is Satan Shaitan (the Devil, your only true enemy), so why did you fight against humans instead of fighting against Satan Shaitan?

  d. Satan Shaitan whispers reasons for Muslim to fight Muslim and when Muslims fight Muslims saying that they fight Muslims for “the cause of God” all Muslims know that such action is pure evil and that such fighting is only for the selfish cause of humans.

  e. Satan Shaitan whispers proclaim “the cause of humans” to be the same as “the cause of God” but it is a sin because “the cause of God” is the cause that is only for God and is nothing to do with “the selfish causes of humans”.  

 

8. Thanks to God, today we are a people that inherit an Earth free from most of the religious persecution which existed 1400 years ago.

However to spoil God’s creation and as a test of our faith in God, Satan Shaitan whispers reasons for Muslim to fight Muslim and when Muslims fight Muslims and call it “the cause of God” we know it is pure evil they do because such fighting is only for “the selfish cause of humans."

 

9. Satan Shaitan works hard to make all the people in the world afraid of Muslims because Satan Shaitan does not want the message from God’s last Prophet to reach all the peoples of the world before the Day of Judgement.

 

10. God sent all the prophets and the last Prophet Muhammad to remove religious persecution so that today people are free to spread the message of God on the Earth without the religious persecution which existed 1400 years ago.

 

11. Today Muslims can do what Prophet Muhammad loved, which is to praise God and be a person of mercy and kindness and peace passing the message of God to all the people of the world.

 

12. Today Satan Shaitan uses fear to make people run away from Muslims so that they do not hear the message of the last prophet of God.

 

13. To defeat Satan Shaitan, follow Prophet Muhammad in the cause of God by using your mouth and your feet and tell the world about God in friendship and peace.

 

14. Stay away from the misguided fighting which is a deception from Satan Shaitan who works to keep you busy fighting and killing yourselves instead of you using your time in the real “cause of God” which is to pass the message of God’s last prophet to all the people of the world.

 

15. Avoid sin:

a. Do not say I am fighting in the cause of God when you fight Muslims.

b. Do not say I am fighting in the cause of God when you kill Muslim and non Muslim civilians.

c. Do not say I am fighting in the cause of God when you kill women and children,

d. Do not say I am fighting in the cause of God when you kill people that are not fighting you.

e. If you must fight do not say I am fighting in the cause of God when God knows God’s cause but you do not know the plans of God.

f. Only a prophet knows God’s command and God has revealed that Prophet Muhammad was the last prophet of God on this earth. If you must fight do not say I am fighting in the cause of God when God knows God’s cause but you do not know the plans of God.

g. Today when you fight recognise you do not know the will of God and do not say, “I am fighting in the cause of God”. Are you a prophet? Only God knows the truth about what you are doing. Do not lead other people into sin by using “the cause of God” to kill people for “the selfish causes of humans”.

h. Be ready to answer to God for what you do and what you say.

i. Do not use God’s name in fights that have nothing to do with fighting only for the cause of God.

Fighting for the cause of God was commanded and directed by God through his prophets to remove the persecution of religion on the Earth.

Fighting for the cause of God was first revealed because of the persecution against Muslims by the stone idol worshippers who did not allow Muslims to freely pray in Makkah Arabia.

 

16. Of all the creations in the heavens and the earth the most loved of God’s creations includes the humans that Satan Shaitan has promised to spoil in every generation.

Today we hear or see actions that destroy some of God’s best loved creations, the humans.

Among people are those who believe Satan Shaitan when he whispers into the heart of men and women encouraging them to destroy what God has created as a test to show which people reject and which people accept Satan’s Shaitan's evil suggestions.

To test your faith in God Satan Shaitan whispers destroy the helpless children, the helpless women, the helpless men that are in crowds or are travelling together and are not fighting you, although God has absolutely forbidden you to do it.

Satan Shaitan knows that among the helpless crowds or helpless travelers who do not fight you it is absolutely certain there are people you shall destroy who love God.

Such killing is absolutely forbidden but Satan Shaitan misleads some people by whispering into their heart false interpretations of the Quran and false hadith stories which will make their evil behaviour seem normal and righteous to them and in this way blind them through deception to follow the path of evil which in their heart (mind) seems normal and righteous to them.

 

17. Prophet Muhammad lived at a time when Muslims were persecuted in Makkah Arabia.

Prophet Muhammad was ordered by God to fight to stop the persecution of Muslims by the stone idol worshippers and he was successful 1400 years ago in that mission.

 

18. Everyone today can hear news reports on radio and see on TV and on the internet how Satan Shaitan works very hard to make people afraid of Muslims.

Satan Shaitan wants people to stay away from Muslims by using fear so that people do not learn about God.

1400 years ago God revealed to Prophet Muhammad messages and explanations in the Quran for understanding God that can help the Jews, the Christians and all humans in every generation.

Among the best acts in life if God wills is to be able to explain God to someone that does not correctly know God.

Today it is possible for a Muslim to visit people around the world and invite them to understand God, God willing.

 

19. Fight Satan Shaitan by taking refuge with God.

a, When Satan Shaitan whispers to spoil God’s creations reply first with:

Quran 4:93 Koran 4:93 Whoever kills a believer (in God) 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 God's wrath will fall on him and He (God will) curse him and He (God) 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 God see Quran 5:32. Quran 6:158 confirms that "... belief in God 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 God without doing good deeds is a false belief in God meaning belief in God with good deeds is true belief in God).

 

b. When Satan Shaitan whispers to spoil God’s creations reply secondly with:

Quran 4:114 Koran 4:114 There is no good in most of their (the people’s) private conversation except in the person who calls for charity, kindness and peace making between humans, he (the person) who does this (charity, kindness and peace making between humans) and seeks the approval of God, We (God) shall give them a great reward (in Paradise Jannah in the Hereafter).

 

c. When Satan Shaitan whispers to spoil God’s creations reply thirdly with:

Quran 4:125 Koran 4:125 And who is better in religion than one who submits to God and he does good and follows the religion of Abraham Ibrahim the righteous? Abraham Ibrahim was taken as a friend by God. 

Quran 15:39, Koran 15:39 (Iblis Satan Shaitan) said, "O my Lord (God), because you misguide me, I shall make the path of wrongdoing seem attractive to them (humans) on the earth, and I (Satan Shaitan) shall misguide all of them (humans to do evil in a way where they think that their evil is not evil but is something that is good for humans to do).

Quran 15:40, Koran 15:40 Except Your (God’s) chosen, (correctly guided) servants (who are) among them (humans)."

 

20. Why did God authorize Prophet Muhammad and his people to fight 1400 years ago?

Quran 2:216 Koran 2:216 "..., God 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 Koran 2:217 "... They (the stone idol worshippers of Makkah) shall continue fighting you until they turn you away from your faith in God if they can. And those of you who turn away from your faith (in God) and die disbelieving (in God), will have wasted their deeds in this life and in the next (life) and shall live in fire forever (in the hereafter). 

 

21. 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 God 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.

 

The command from God for me and you today in the Torah and Gospel and Quran is to worship God and learn from the recorded verses of history in the Books of God.

The command from God for me and you today in Judaism, Christianity and Islam is to worship God and learn from the knowledge that has been given to all humankind. 

Today there is no Holy war because only a prophet knows the will of the Holy God.

In all wars today no one fights for God because everyone is intentionally or unintentionally killing innocent people.

 

Today the righteous among the Jews, Christians and Muslims are the people who show kindness and charity and peacemaking. They are the best example of goodness to the whole world (Quran 4:114).

Quran 4:114 Koran 4:114 There is no good in most of their (the people’s) private conversation except in the person who calls for charity, kindness and peace making between humans, he (the person) who does this (charity, kindness and peace making between humans) and seeks the approval of God, We (God) shall give them a great reward (in Paradise Jannah in the Hereafter).

Note 1. The guidance for peace in this world.

 

Quran 5:2 Koran 5:2 "... Do not be incited by your hatred of people (the stone idol worshippers of Mecca Arabia today Makkah Saudi Arabia) who once prevented you from going to the Sacred Mosque (“Sacred Mosque” is l-masjidi l-harami, al-Masjid al-Haram, al-Masjid al-Haraam in Makkah). Help each other in righteousness (goodness) and piety (religion) but do not help each other in sin (evil) and transgression (crime). And fear God. God is strict in punishment (in the hereafter).

Note 1. The guidance for peace in this world.

 

Quran 45:14 Koran 45:14 Say (Prophet Muhammad) to those who believe (in God that) they (should) forgive those who do not expect the Days of God (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 God) so that He (God) may reward (the righteous) people for what they earn (in reward for the hereafter by obeying God’s command that the people who believe in God should forgive the people who do not believe in God so that you forgive the disbelievers in your life in the same way that you wish God to forgive you in the next life in the hereafter).

Note 1. The guidance for peace in this world.


E. God did not abrogate any verse in the Quran because each verse explains other verses.

Prophet Muhammad did not abrogate any verse in the Quran because each verse explains other verses.

No verse in the Quran abrogates another verse in the Quran. 

For example some verses describe what happened 1400 years ago in times of war and other verses describe what happened 1400 years ago in times of peace. 

Abrogation of verses in the Quran was invented after the death of Prophet Muhammad with no permission from God or from Prophet Muhammad.

See Nasikh and Mansukh. Nasikh wal Mansukh Abrogation in the Quran here:

F. God teaches the religion of God in the Torah Taurat and in the Gospel Injil and in the Quran.

Quran 7:29 Koran 7:29 Say (Prophet Muhammad), "My Lord (God) has ordered justice and that you set your faces (in worship to Him God) at every mosque (“mosque” is masjidin, masjid, place of worship, masjid, church and synagogue see Quran 17:1 where the ruins of the first and second Jewish Temples in Zion meaning the Temple Mountain, Temple Mount in Jerusalem Al-Quds 1400 years ago was called Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa meaning the farthest mosque and in Quran 17:7 the Jewish Temple is called “Mosque” meaning place of worship. In Quran 18:21 “Masjidan” means “a place of worship” and a church and in Quran 9:107 “Masjidan” means “a mosque.” See Quran 2:114 and Quran 22:40) and invoke Him (God and be) sincere to Him (God in) the religion (in Quran 98:5 the Jews and the Christians were not commanded anything from God in the Torah Taurat and in the Gospel Injil of Jesus Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John except that the Jews and the Christians should worship God and be sincere in religion to God, be righteous and establish prayer to God who created them and give charity to the needy people. That is the correct religion of God). Just as He (God) brought you (humans including the Jews and Christians and Muslims) into being (meaning into existence), so to (in that same way) shall you (humans including the Jews and Christians and Muslims) return (back to God on the Day of Resurrection see Quran 5:48).

 

Quran 4:93 Koran 4:93 Whoever kills a believer (in God) 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 God's wrath will fall on him and He (God will) curse him and He (God) 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 God see Quran 5:32. Quran 6:158 confirms that "... belief in God 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 God without doing good deeds is a false belief in God meaning belief in God with good deeds is true belief in God).

 

Quran 2:114 Koran 2:114 And who is more unjust than those who prevent His name (the name of God) 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 of God” means any house for worshipping God including the houses of the Muslims and Christians and Jews who all mention the name of God meaning God has ordered the protection of the Mosque and the Church and the Synagogue where the name of God is mentioned see Quran 22:40). It is not for them (who prevent the name of God 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 God with the intention of worshipping God). For them (who prevent the name of God 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 5:48 Koran 5:48 “… For each (community of Jews, Christians and Muslims) We (God) have appointed a divine law and a way (of religion). If God willed He (God) could have made you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) one community. But He (God) tests you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) by what He (God) 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 God you shall all return and He (God) 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 17:1 Koran 17:1 Exalted is the One (God) who took His (God’s) servant (Prophet Muhammad on a journey) by night (see Quran 6:60 “God is the one who takes your souls at night”, Quran 17:60 “the vision” of Prophet Muhammad meaning the dream, 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) from the Sacred Mosque (“the Sacred Mosque” is l-masjidi l-harami, Al-Masjid Al-Haraam. See Quran 5:97 where the sacred House is l-bayta l-harama and is the Kabah. See Quran 9:19 the Sacred Mosque is l-masjidi l-harami in Makkah. See Quran 9:28 the Sacred Mosque is l-masjida l-harama in Makkah. See Quran 14:37 Your Sacred House baytika l-muharami. See Quran 22:25 the sacred mosque is wal-masjidi l-harami. The Kaaba Kabah in Mecca Arabia today in Makkah Saudi Arabia) to the farthest mosque (“the farthest mosque” is l-masjidi l-aqsa, Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa in Zion which contains the ruins of the first Jewish Temple and the ruins of second Jewish Temple in Jerusalem Al-Quds Palestine today Israel and Palestine. The second Jewish Temple in Zion was destroyed by the Army of the Roman Empire in 569 BH 70 CE 70 AD and is called Bayt al-Muqaddas, Bayt al-Maqdis from the Hebrew Beit Ha-Miqdash Beit Hamikdash meaning “The House of the Holy” which is the ruins of the Jewish Temple on the Temple Mount meaning the Temple Mountain in Jerusalem Al-Quds. In Quran 17:1 the Jewish Temple is called “the farthest mosque” Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa and in Quran 17:7 the Jewish Temple is called “Mosque” meaning place of worship) whose surroundings We (God) have blessed (as the Holy Land in Quran 5:20 - 5:21) so that We (God) may show (Prophet Muhammad) Our (God’s) signs (for the remembrance of God in Zion meaning in the place of the ruins of first and second Jewish Temples of God in Jerusalem Al-Quds in the same way as everything on the earth and in the heavens are signs and symbols for the remembrance of God. See Quran 2:158 mountains are signs of God, Quran 3:97 the Kabah is a sign of God, Quran 5:97 the Kabah and the sacred months and animals for offering and the garlands are signs of God, Quran 22:32 “honour the symbols of God”, Quran 22:36 camel and cattle are symbols of God, Quran 39:42 life and sleep and death are signs of God). He (God) is the All-hearer and the All-Seer.

 

Quran 22:40 Koran 22:40 (They are) those (believers in Yathrib Madinah) who have been evicted from their homes unjustly (by the stone idol worshippers in Mecca Arabia today Makkah Saudi Arabia) only because they said, “Our Lord is God.” (Fighting is sometimes necessary because) had it not been that God checks (by limiting the evil that) the people (do), (when) some of them (who desire to do evil are stopped) by others (of the people who desire to do goodness) then surely monasteries and churches and synagogues and mosques in which the name of God is often mentioned would have been demolished (“monasteries” is sawamiʿu, “and churches” is wabiyaʿun, “and synagogues” is wasalawatun, “and mosques” is wamasajidu). God helps the one who helps Him (God, by protecting every monastery, church, synagogue and mosque where God is worshipped. 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 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 here https://sites.google.com/view/islamandthekoran/understanding-fighting-in-the-koran  ). God is strong and almighty. 

 

Quran 98:5 Koran 98:5 They (the Jews and the Christians) were not commanded anything (from God in the Torah Taurat and in the Gospel Injil of Jesus Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John) except that they (the Jews and the Christians) should worship God and be sincere in religion to Him (God), be righteous and establish prayer (to God who created them) and give charity (to the needy people). That is the correct religion of God.

Note 1. God explains why Judaism with the Torah Taurat and Christianity with the Gospel Injil and Islam with the Quran are the same belief in one God who is the creator of every creation.

Note 2. Not all Christians and Jews and Muslims are the same meaning in every generation there are some Christians and Muslims and Jews who are correctly worshiping God.

The Christian and Jew who believed in one God like the Muslim who believed in one God and who did good deeds on the Earth will be successful (Quran 2:62 and Quran 5:69).

Note 3. The sins of the prophets is a reminder to humans not to elevate the prophets instead of elevating God.

Moses Musa sinned by killing a man and the messiah king David Dawud sinned by adultery (represented in the story of a man who had one female sheep in the sin of ewe, the sin involving a female) and murder (represented in the story by another man who caused to die something that did not belong to him in the sin of ewe, the sin involving a female) and the messiah king Solomon Sulaiman sinned by marriage to foreign wives who brought idol worship to Israel so that every human who comes after them can know that when you repent and correct your behaviour God will forgive all your sins without a blood sacrifice in Psalm 32:5, Psalm 51:17 - 51:19 in Tanakh or Psalm 51:15 - 51:17 in a Christian Bible, 1 Kings 8:46 - 8:50, Ecclesiastes 7:20, Proverbs 24:16, Ezekiel 18:20 - 18:23, Isaiah 1:18, Isaiah 55:7, Hosea 6:6, Hosea 14:2 - 14:3 and Micah 6:6 - 6:8.

Note 4. Those Muslims in the past who elevated Prophet Muhammad after his death and those Jews who elevated Prophet Ezra in the time of Prophet Muhammad and those Christians who elevated Prophet Jesus Isa in the time of Prophet Muhammad will have problems because they elevated prophets instead of elevating only God (Quran 3:64 and Quran 4:123).

The worship of God in Zion 3030 years ago and by Prophet Muhammad in Makkah 1400 years ago. 

Baca in Psalm 84:7 in Tanakh Jewish scripture or Psalm 84:6 in Christian bible and Bakkah in Quran 3:96 are places of tears for repentance to God.

Psalm 84:6 Happy is the man whose strength (of belief) is in you (God); in whose heart are the highways (that lead pilgrims to righteousness) -

Psalm 84:7 (Psalm 84:6 in Christian Bible) They (the pilgrims) pass through the Valley of Baca (The valley of tears), regarding it as a place of springs (of tears when they sincerely ask God to forgive their sins in Quran 91:1-10 like the sins of the messiah king David were forgiven in 2 Samuel 12:13, 1 Kings 3:14, 1 Kings 11:38 and 2 Kings 22:2, and with their tears make it), as if the early rain had covered it with blessing (knowing that a person who sincerely repents and corrects their behaviour is forgiven by God and is resurrected as a sinless person in Ecclesiastes 7:20, Proverbs 24:16, Ezekiel 18:22-23, Isaiah 1:18, Isaiah 1:27, Isaiah 55:7, Isaiah 56:1-2, Isaiah 59:20, Hosea 6:6, Hosea 14:2-14:3 and Micah 6:6-6:8).

Psalm 84:8 They (the pilgrims) go from strength to strength, every (time) one of them (the pilgrims) appears before God in Zion (meaning the site or place where the ark of the covenant of God which was given to Prophet Moses Musa was kept in the city of David Dawud 3030 years ago and later in the time of King Solomon Sulaiman the city of David Dawud became Jerusalem Al-Quds and Zion was the site or place of the First Jewish Temple which would be built by King Solomon Sulaiman 2980 years ago in Jerusalem Al-Quds where the ark of the covenant of God was kept and later Zion would be the site of the Second Jewish Temple which would be built on the site of the destroyed First Jewish Temple and later Zion would mean all of Jerusalem, Al-Quds).

G. In Quran 8:39, Quran 9:33 and Quran 61:9 Prophet Muhammad fulfilled his mission 1400 years ago like Prophet Moses Musa fulfilled their mission 3100 years ago.

Quran 8:39 Koran 8:39 So fight them (the stone idol worshippers of Mecca Makkah) until the persecution (of Muslims) stops and the religion is all for God (so that people are guided to goodness and not guided to the evil of stone idol worship and this mission given 1400 years ago by God to Prophet Muhammad was achieved in Makkah and Arabia today Saudi Arabia when the stone idol worshipping authority over the people which had persecuted Muslims was replaced by an authority over the people worshipping God without the persecution of Muslims or Non Muslims. This is similar to the commands in the Torah Taurat where God guided the children of Israel to replace the authority of stone idol worship in Canaan today in Israel and Palestine with an authority over the people worshipping God) but if they (the stone idol worshippers of Mecca Makkah) stop (fighting), then God sees what they do (meaning when they stop fighting you and they offer to make peace then you also must stop fighting and make peace and put your trust in God who is your protector. When a people stop fighting against Muslims then Muslims must stop fighting see Quran 2:192 – 2:193). 

 

Quran 9:33 Koran 9:33 It is He (God) who has sent His (God’s) messenger (Prophet Muhammad) with the guidance and the religion (belief) of the truth (which is the belief in one God meaning one creator so that people are guided to goodness and not guided to the evil of stone idol worship and) to manifest (make clear) it (the truth about God) over all religions (beliefs) however much the polytheists (those who pray to creations which they claim have the same power to hear prayer as God) may dislike it (and this mission given 1400 years ago by God to Prophet Muhammad was achieved in Makkah and Arabia today Saudi Arabia when the stone idol worshipping authority over the people which had persecuted Muslims was replaced by an authority over the people worshipping God without the persecution of Muslims or Non Muslims. This is similar to the commands in the Torah Taurat where God guided the children of Israel to replace the authority of stone idol worship in Canaan today in Israel and Palestine with an authority over the people worshipping God).

 

Quran 61:9 Koran 61:9 It is He (God) who has sent His (God’s) messenger (Prophet Muhammad) with guidance and the religion of truth so that He (God) may make it (the truth about God) prevail over the religion of all of them (who do not believe in God meaning in one creator so that people are guided to goodness and not guided to the evil of stone idol worship) however much the polytheists (those who pray to creations which they claim have the same power to hear prayer as God) may dislike it (and this mission given 1400 years ago by God to Prophet Muhammad was achieved in Makkah and Arabia today Saudi Arabia when the stone idol worshipping authority over the people which had persecuted Muslims was replaced by an authority over the people worshipping God without the persecution of Muslims or Non Muslims. This is similar to the commands in the Torah Taurat where God guided the children of Israel to replace the authority of stone idol worship in Canaan today in Israel and Palestine with an authority over the people worshipping God).
