    Peace

    None of the evidence I come up with for anything is "conclusive" in my opinion

    Salam

    We are in agreement then

    The evidnece that Mohammad wrote the Quran is not conclusive and can't be fact

    however do you agree that many ignorant Muslims take it as a fact?

    Salam

      Peace Tanveer

      I do agree that there may be a sort of language barrier with Ahmed due to his broken english which I sometimes find hard in interpreting.

        Yep let's turn the subject to defame Ahmed, lol, I knew it it it will happen,

        well I never claimed to be master in english nor I'm spell bound

        now let's get this thread back on track

        where is the verse or verses in the Quran that tell us that Mohammad wrote the whole Quran with his own hands?
        Thanks

          Peace all,

          2948 is proof that the Prophet learned how to write after the start of revelation

          2948 You were not reciting any scripture before this (qablihi), nor were you writing one down by your hand. In that case, the doubters would have had reason.

          The word "qablihi" in this verse is significant which means "before this revelation came." Thus al-qur'aan has put the record straight that the Prophet could read and write after the start of revelation.

          The assertion that the Prophet was not writing ANY SCRIPTURE BEFORE THIS (this referring to the WHOLE QUR'AAN), proves that the Prophet wrote the WHOLE QUR'AAN with his hand, otherwise 2948 would become meaningless.

            I think people do follow shaky evidence as genuine often enough. It happens.

            You told me my evidence was weak, but I'm telling you I believe it to be strong and I'll tell you why.

            1- In 96/1-5 one is shown the import to read and how God teaches.

            2- The word umme refers to one who is ignorant of divine precepts, not to one lacking literacy.

              It's not to defame you. It's to encourage patience with your lack of knowledge/command of the english language, or in this case grammar.

                Please remember what the thread is all about, here it is highlighted

                I am having a discussion with my freind who does not believe that Quran was written by Muhammad with his own hands.I already quoted him sura 25 verse 5 but still he insist on more evidence.Can any one help me find more verses from the quran or a suitable article which could help me in convincing my freind.

                Thanks

                    Then I suggest you stick with the topic. If you'd note, you're the one going off on tangents to which people are responding.

                        Peace all,

                        Here it is again, cuz looks like one of the posters here has difficulty reading too in addition to difficulty understanding

                        2948 You were not reciting any scripture before this (qablihi), nor were you writing one down by your hand. In that case, the doubters would have had reason.

                        The word "qablihi" in this verse is significant which means "before this revelation came." Thus al-qur'aan has put the record straight that the Prophet could read and write after the start of revelation.

                        I am confident, however, that one of the posters here will completely fail to understand this point. Watch !

                            Peace all,

                            Let me break it down further for someone here who might have the comprehension ability of a 5th grader

                            From 2948

                            You were not reciting any scripture before this ------> indicates you (the Prophet) recited the whole Qur'aan

                            SIMILARLY

                            Nor were you writing one down by your hand ------> indicates you (the Prophet) wrote down the whole Qur'aan with your hand.

                              actually joe mentioned it in one of his previous posts... so yes, you are too late... he spelled it umme though so maybe you never noticed

                                I stand corrected! Maybe no-one else noticed however as it's a definitely a tangent-spurning issue. D

                                  Sorry that was not the answer to my question

                                  My question was do you agree that some ignorant Muslim take it that Mohammad wrote the whole Quran with his own hands as a fact?, remember you agreed that it is not a fact

                                  You told me my evidence was weak, but I'm telling you I believe it to be strong and I'll tell you why.

                                  You need to back up your claim that the word Ummi means as such from the Quran,

                                  No guessing and no urls, I don?t read urls posted to me

                                    I will have to agree that some do because I do. I do not think I am ignorant because I do so. I may be enlightened because I do. Apparently you seem to think you have the correct answer so I think I can safely assume you can guide us all to the promised land.

                                    we are talking writing not reading

                                    This is a quote from the link which you will not visit

                                    In al-quran there is a challenge put forth to those who would seek to disavow al-quran's divine inspiration. It is made clear that nobody will be able to produce such a reading however.

                                    "And if you are in doubt as to that which We have revealed to our servant, then produce a chapter like it and call on your helpers besides Allah if you are truthful. But if you do (it) not - and you can never do (it) - then be on you guard against the fire whose fuel is men and stones; it is prepared for the disbelievers. (223-24)

                                    1. Since no man should be able to produce a writ such as al-quran then there should be no doubt that such a reading is from the divine. Chapter 29 verse 48 seems to make it apparent that the prophet/messenger could read and write because it is declared the Muhammad could not produce a writ such as al-quran by his own means. We already know that no man can do such by their own means because of verses 23-24 of chapter 2.

                                    And thou didst not recite before it any book, nor didst thou transcribe one with thy right hand, for then could the liars have doubted. (294

                                    Thus we are presented with the fact that the prophet/messenger never transcribed or recited such a revelation by his own means for if he did the liars would have a just reason to doubt that al-quran was from God. Since nobody can produce such a revelation (see 223-24) we know that it was not written by Muhammad from his own means, nor did he ever have the means to produce any other scripture."

                                    You need to back up your claim that the word Ummi means as such from the Quran

                                    In the link I posted which you will not visit it states

                                    "Regarding the word 'umme' the following verses will be used to back up my view that it refers to one who has not dealt with divine wisdom and/or decrees.

                                    And when they meet those who believe they say, We believe, and when they are apart with one another they say, Do you talk to them of what Allah has disclosed to you that they may contend with you by this before your Lord? Do you not understand? Do they not know that Allah knows what they keep secret and what they make known? And some of them are illiterate; they know not the Book but only (from) heresay, and they do but conjecture. (276-7

                                    Here we have the 'umme' among those who conceal the truth, keeping it among themselves as if they own it. The last sentence actually makes it clear what 'umme' is referring to; it is those who do not know about the book, they learn of it from ramblings and only guess about it. Thus they are not familiar with the divine precepts."

                                      I nominate this - the thread that grew the fastest.

                                      I just wanted to say thanks Tanveer for answering the question. What I found funny was how all your posts were ignored by the person who asked! D

                                          Okay, I hate to kinda drive this subject a little of course, but I read some of what was posted here, and now it makes me have some questions

                                          Question If the prophets companions, wrote down all that he recited over a course of time that it was revealed to him, and then after his death, it was compiled into a book=Quran. Then, how come we do not follow the hadiths? Are they not the same as companions writing down the ways, and examples of the prophet over a period of time, and then after his death, putting them into books? Not that I think its precisely the same, nor do I think we should believe in hadiths,..but it seems confusing to me, the whole issue of the Quran being compiled after the prophets death?? I mean I know the difference in hadiths vs Quran. Quran was inspired directly from God, and hadiths were not. So theres no argument there, but again...the confusion lies, in getting people to understand why we believe in the quran, when it was compiled after the prophets death, such as the hadith. Also, does anyone knows the year (est) that the first compiled Quran came out and also the year(est) the first compiled hadith came out, all after the prophets death?

                                          Any Ideas? Opinions? Answers? Findings?
