    Salam,

    "the so-called call of Allah to slaughter Ismael by Abraham" -

    Let's understand one thing Before any debate we must agree on definitions of important words that are used, otherwise the debate will prove to be fruitless and sterile.

    These definitions will play the role of a mental filter that will guide our comprehension.

    Concerning the Quran the most important definition is that of the “Basmala” * which inaugurates and introduces every reading of each sura; its presence in force in the Fatiha is enough to give it a PREMIUM place.
    God invites us to have a reading "RHManique" of the Quran.
    And once the concept of the root R-H-M is defined, the second rule will be to remove any contradiction in the understanding of the Quranic text in the light of this accepted definition.

    Step 1 Definition of the “Basmala”

    Thus, what does the “Basmala” means Accompanied/With-the instrument-of the name-attribute-function of Allah, the all-radiant-of-benevolence-and-protection (His essence) **, the inexhaustible- source-of-benevolence-and-protection (His manifestation) ***.

    Reminder of the general notion of benevolence "Favorable disposition of someone, as synonymous with concepts of kindness and indulgence.
    Reminder on the general concept of protection "Action to protect, to defend some or all. (against an aggressor, a danger, etc.); being protected.”, as synonymous with concepts of help, defense and relief, to sponsor, to promote the development of something.”

    Step 2 Management of Quranic "contradictions"

    IF we agree on this definition of the “Basmala” - obviously the meaning of words is more important than the formal words used - then the following question arises
    May God, in a perverse way (a feint), ask Abraham to KILL his only SON, whom he had so much trouble having him and without never asking GOD, EVEN IF Ishmael did not kill no one nor spreading corruption on earth ?

    IF you answer YES to this question then ask yourself the following question In the Qur'an God did the same thing explicitly with another mortal Man (I do not speak of angels or divine missionaries as in the story of Moussa but any mortal men like us)?

    Conclusion

    IF you answer YES to only one of these two questions AND you agree on the definition of the “Basmala”, THEN you find yourself in an act of contradiction and/or neurosis.

    Otherwise, it should not be surprising that the favorite tool of Islamic extremists is slaughtering or speeches such as "You know kid you may one day be forced to kill your father or an innocent in the name of cause of God LIKE of what Abraham had to do for his son .. " imbued certain extremist circles ...


    • The Basmala (Arabic بسملة basmalah), also known by its incipit Bismillāh (Arabic باسم الله, "In the name of God&quot , is the Islamic phrase bi-smi llāhi r-raḥmāni r-raḥīm بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

    ** With regard to God, the substantive raḥmân has the function of expressing an extension and an elevation of the meaning given to the term raḥma. This is not a superlative the more ..., but an intensive , it is better to use the adverb "all", which connotes the completeness, completeness, extreme, a register more qualitative rather than quantitative, unlike the adverb "very" used by many translations. Note that this term can be used as a proper name also.
    Such is the status of the schema fa'lân; example ghaḍbân in S20.V8. Classically, it has been observed with reason that raḥîm could be a quality of the creatures whereas none of them can be adorned with the attribute ar-raḥmân.

    *** Just like ar-raḥmân the name ar-raḥîm derives from the root raḥima. The fa‘îl schema on which it is constructed is that of adjectives of the active participle type, that is to say, qualitatively realizing the verbal action and ar-raḥîm thus designates the one who does something. Hence the fact that if one can not qualify a man as raḥmân, he can, however, be said to be raḥîm. This is so with the Prophet in S9V128.

      Basic premise is invalid.

        For the translation of this passage I have already shown that the text corresponds to the "RHManic" principle of the Basmala.
