Muhammad Wrote the quran
-
Salaam AB
So, do I understand that you mean there is no mention in this verse that he did not write any book before? Can we presume, therefore, that he could write a book before (since the verse mentions only reading), but he specifically did not write the quraan?
-
The first part ? ?, ? And you did not recite before it?, the damir ?Ha? translated as ?it? in the word ?Qablihi? is referring to the Quran
The second part ? ?, i.e. ?a book?, i.e. any book (unknown)The two parts together will be like this literally ?you were not reading any book before the Quran?
As you can see we have the words ?Ma Kunt? as the denial words, the action denied is reading any book, and the time for the action is before the Quran, this constitutes a complete sentence in Arabic
What comes after is another piece of information that has nothing to do with the time of not being able to read the Quran, i.e. the words ?Qablihi? only applies to the reading of any book, it does not apply to the writing as I will confirm right now
-> The third part is like this ? ?, i.e. ? , nor did you transcribe one with your right hand?, is independent from the word Qablihi, i.e. the timing of the word Qablihi does not apply to this denial, the denial in here is specific to the Quran actually this is because of the Damir ?Ha? in the word ?Takhotuh? is referring to the Quran and not the ?a book?, if it was referring to a book as the word ?Yatlu? then the Ha should never be there, i.e. the second denial in this part is specific to the Quran and is independent from the word Qablihi, i.e. even after the Quarn he did not write it down.
The proper translation according to the Arabic sentences structures and grammar in those three parts should be as follow
?you were not reading any book before the Quran, and you do not write the Quran with your right hand?
Bro Tanveer !
salam i think the red part of AB's post is very critical , and you have completely ignored it.
It really does not make any difference to me !
Chi Chi Chi,, losing a good friend/admirer doesn't make any difference to you?
Goodbye friend '(

Salam Samia
Yes, that is because the Ha in the word "Takhutuh" i.e. the ha is referring to the Quran, if it was meant to be nakirah like reading any book then the ha should not be there
Can we presume, therefore, that he could write a book before (since the verse mentions only reading), but he specifically did not write the quraan?
no because someone who can't read must not be able to write
there are those who can read but can't write
The whole argument as i understand from brother Zenje that if he tells me that I haven't written a book before that book is flawed, this is because it can only be said by a human to another human, sort of wondering that I didn't write a book before that one but I wrote this book, the verse however is not a human talking to a human, IT IS ALLAH SAYING A STATEMENT ABOUT MOHAMMAD, the purpose of that statement by Allah is not to wonder rather to deny that Mohammad wrote the Quran or read a book before the Quran, it is not like Allah is chattting with Mohammad telling him wow you have not written a book before this one, this book you wrote is great

Ahamad!

Thanks bro
while I don't want it to look like a competition as it is never that way, you made it look like it LOL
any way, falsehood is destined to perish mate, please read my small comment to Samia when you have time
Take care

Salaam siki,
salam i think the red part of AB's post is very critical , and you have completely ignored it.
I would like this to be verified by other Classical Arabic experts like Samia, Anwar, Ayman etc. before believing it because of the history associated with him.
If what he is saying is true then that causes an impossible phenomenon to exist !
Then it would mean that the Prophet was not able to read other books before the Qur'aan, but was able to write other books before the Qur'aan, which is an impossibility. That is what Samia is questioning, if I am not mistaken.
I looked up many translators and they are 50/50 on this. So at this point I will have to wait for consensus from Classical Arabic experts.
Chi Chi Chi,, losing a good friend/admirer doesn't make any difference to you?
You are the one making that choice, not me

How about this verse3144
What does the "Ha" refer to in this verse? Isn't "rasoul " nakirah "indefinite"?no because someone who can't read must not be able to write
Says who? Is it a law you know? I know an English student of mine who wrote very beautiful Arabic, but could not read it. Calligraphers do not necessarily understand what they write. I can write Persian if dictated to me but I do not understand it, so I do not read it. It just happens I know its phonetics.

Salaam sister Samia,

Apologies for barging in but if someone can write something he/she can read/recite it without understanding it. You can write Persian if dictated to you so you can read/recite it even if you don't understand it. If you cannot read/recite something, it will be impossible to write it. You are mixing "understanding" with "reading" !

that is called drawing not writing
Calligraphers do not necessarily understand what they write.
They must br Ummis then, I guess their job is mostely drawing, they don't need to understand what they draw
I can write Persian if dictated to me but I do not understand it, so I do not read it. It just happens I know its phonetics.
then you are an Ummi regarding persian language
do you have any Quran arguments please?

Salaam bro siki,

So does that mean I will not be able to come visit you in Islamabad now ? '(

Salaam Tanweer
Maybe you're right in the example about me, but as for my student, he did not know how to read Arabic, he just liked the writing of Arabic, like calligraphers. As for mixing between reading and understanding, what's the point of reading? Why read what you do not understand?
Which brings me back to the verse. The verb used is (takhu6), which is different from (taktub). We should understand that if a word is used in the quraan to convey a certain meaning, we should not attribute this specific meaning to a different word. "yakhu6" is different from "yaktub". It does not involove understanding. Calligrapher in Arabic is derived from this verb "kha66aa6" not "kaatib writer".
So, this verb cannot apply to the quraan. Muhammad was not "yakhu66" alquraan, because he understood it. But he did not "kha6" before what he did not understand.

Illiteracy as meant in Qur?an ?the ignorance of God? is a matter of degree and as a young teen my introduction to Islam was actually the very first word/verse revealed?
961 Read! in the name of thy Lord and Cherisher, Who created-
Thus a command to, ?be? literate (not ignorant of Islam) fulfilled in last verse revealed?
53 ?This day have I perfected your religion for you, completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion?
As to who did the mechanics of writing Qur?an ? that is irrelevant, although task was most likely delegated to the best scribe; only makes sense.
Yes, stayed up most of the night reading this entire thread and all associated links...lol
Although birds are singing and dawn is approaching -- great time for prayer... sun
Peace

Salam bro
but Allah kept calling Mohammad Ummi at leats couple of time, would that mean Allah was calling him an ignorant of God?
how about this one
Allah has told us to follow the Nabi the Ummi
would that mean Allah was telling us to follow the prophet who is a God ignorant?
Cheers

Salaam bro siki,
handshake i will make up, if you bring along eat a 16 oz jumbo pack of plain salted LAYS
Isn't that considered EXTORTION ? elektro
Also Lays chips (and most other brands) are cooked in vegetable oil which is not good for health because it contains a lot of toxic free radicals. Now I would not want to harm a friend !
