Oldest Qur?an manuscript MA VI 165
-
Is there any proof that Arabs are descendants of Ishmael? What happened to the descendants of ishaq? According to pazuzus research (which I believe is accurate ) all prophets mentioned in quran are from the same geographical location that is south Arabia. Doesn't it make Mohammad also an Arab?
If ALLAH permits me, I will open a new thread on this subject.

I think Arab is an elusive term. There is more behind it than an ethnicity.
I have had certain suspicions that Arab originally does not mean what is thought and it is conspicuously similar to Rabb. That or the Quranic Arab is a term of confusion with something else.
What I think is that the word Arab got synonymous with a people once upon a time.
The majority of the prophets were clearly considered Hebrews. And their attached condition to God is what they regarded as Jew (yahood) and Jew is no ethnicity but a member of those who are in the proper faith since near God. It has relationship with the term (huda) which means one is unto something.
The Arab word needs more research before I can say more.
Hebrews were spread all over the Middle-East and they did not have a fixed locale. This language was used even officially within the Persian empire (with the variation Aramaic).
Arabic is too thought through to be the invention of a backwards community and is actually very exact and logical (once you know its deeper secrets). It is not just erupted from a primitive nomadic people. There is much more to it. Virtually all Arabic letters exist in Hebrew except that they use different symbols and use them differently to form words.

It is relevent. I have shown you Quranic proof, yet you take as of no importance and believe in all those jewish lies? elektro
Peace Hizbullah -- you've shown nothing only contradicted yourself.
Again, irrelevant if they are lies or not it refutes your claim since you wrote this

Why all these stories in the Quran suddenly appeared in the Talmud in the 4th and 5th Century CE? The answer is that it was the Jews who plagiarized what is from the Quran!Again, similar stories appear 700 & 300 years earlier refutes your plagiarism claim.
It does. I am not denying C14 technology. What you have shown proofs that the Quranic script was written in the 7th Century CE. What makes you confirmed that those were the oldest Quranic manuscript, when Quranic and histrorical evidence proofs that the Quran / Islam is much older than 1400 years!
Again, you've shown nothing! If you have historical evidence please post one verse that's earlier?

Peace Noon,
Did I? My question is very straight forward. I am not asking you about what was written 700 years with regards to the 4th Century! The stories of the Quran that was rewritten in the Talmud in the 4th Century should be in the former Book of ALLAH, ie, in the Bible and NOT IN THE TALMUD which was written in the 4th Century! Why?

According to traditional Islamic history, Abraha carried out military action against the Meccans in 570 CE, the year the Arab prophet was born. But there you are, contradicting yourself. Abraha died in 553 CE.
So I conclude that what you have shown are nothing but fictitious.

Likewise your claim they plagiarized non-existent Qur'an at the time is false -- you have not provided proof?According to traditional Islamic history, Abraha carried out military action against the Meccans in 570 CE, the year the Arab prophet was born.

There you go again -- please show how/where I contradicted myself due to some Arab tradition/hearsay about 570 CE?
Again it is you contradicting history shown you above which you agree that South Arabia was ruled by Christians until 7th century -- again if you have any historical evidence of an earlier Qur'an please post it here -- even a single verse?

Off course you contradict yourself by acknowledging the traditional history of Islam, that is, the Prophet was an Arab, the Quran was sent down in Arabic so on and so forth. You can twist and turn 360 degree, but your writings are all over this thread and proof you contradict yourself.
When did I ever said that South Arabia was ruled by Christians until 7th century. Show me.
Thank you for showing the historical evidence , it shows that Abraha did not attacked Mecca in 570 CE with Elephant Battalions. As such, there is no such things as an Arab prophet born in 570 CE, there is no such city as Mecca. All Traditional Islamic sources are nothing but fictitious and you believe in them nope

Further Quranic Evidence 6304
And when you see them, you wonder their physique and when they speak, you listen to their speech as if they were MUSNAD INSCRIPTION ON WOODEN PLANKS.
The Prophet was wondering of those hypocrites of their physique and the speech and their writings. They seems so strange to him.
Look at the South Arabian writings, it looks like some cartoons drawings

Salam @ Hizbollah Can you please clarify "The above verses proofs that prophethood from the family of Abraham was granted to the descendents of Prophet Ishaq. The Last Prophet was a direct descendent of Prophet Ishaq and not Ismael as the Traditional Islamic sources implies! The Arabs are descended from the Prophet Ismael. In fact, all of us in this world at present descend from the 11 sons of Ismael."
Do we know if God granted prophethood to any one else from other races, tribes, or peoples not living in the Middle East? When you say " all of us in this world" who are you referring to? Do you mean "all of us Arabs"? Or are you including Arabised peoples, Brazilian jungle tribal peoples, Viking descendants etc etc in that statement?

I have already provided you Quranic evidence, but of course, it shows clearly Quran is nothing to you
Peace Hizbullah -- verse you posted is not proof Qur'an came down in 4th century?

What exactly did I acknowledge?
Your writings are all over this thread and proof you contradict yourself.
Please post one contradiction and quote me?

Who exactly are you debating the above with?
Was it not posted Abraha (deceased ~ 553 CE) Aksumite Christian King South Arabia Kingdom of Aksum and Saba/Yemen?
Likewise are there not historical coins and other evidence that his decedents ruled S. Arabia until Islam came in 7th century?
Again, if you are going to make a statement that Qur'an was in 4th century to a non-Arab in a non-Arabic script/language and that whole world is decedent from 11 "arabs/eloquent" sons now according to you then simply post your evidence?

Injilu 't Tufuliyyah also known as the Infancy Gospel of Thomas and the Gospel of the Infancy of Jesus Christ, was ALLEGED written in the middle of the 2nd century. However, it is UNKNOWN whether the original language of the Infancy Gospel of Thomas was Greek or Syriac. The few surviving Greek manuscripts provide NO CLUES themselves, since none of them date before the 13th century, while the earliest authorities, according to the editor and translator Montague Rhodes James, are a much abbreviated 6th century Syriac version, and a Latin palimpsest of the 5th or 6th century, which has NEVER been fully translated and can be found in Vienna.
Since Christianity was founded in the 4th Century by the Greco-Romans and the NT written in Greek, there is no doubt that the Gosple was written in Greek in the 5th or 6th Century as according to Montague Rhodes James. The stories plagiarized were
a. Jesus creates birds
b. Jesus speaks in the cradleThe Quran says in 0691
And they did not appraise ALLAH with true appraisal when they said, "ALLAH did not reveal to a human being anything." Say, "Who revealed the BOOK that Moses brought as light and guidance to the people? You make it into PARCHMENTS, SCATTER IT and CONCEALING MUCH. And you were taught that which you knew not - neither you nor your fathers." Say, " Allah ." Then leave them in their discourse, amusing themselves.
The Quran confirms what the disbelievers did to the Book of Musa, that is, they make it into parchments, scatter it and conceal much of the information. But when the Quran was sent down revealing to them of what they concealed, they plagiarized what is from the Quran and than accused the Quran of plagiarized. Can you see the conspiracy?

I am BACK muscle
The Quran Chapter 19
-
Mention of the mercy of your Lord to His servant Zechariah
-
And mention, , in the Book Mary, when she withdrew from her family to a place toward the east.
-
And mention in the Book Abraham. Indeed, he was a man of truth and a prophet.
-
And mention in the Book, Moses. Indeed, he was chosen, and he was a messenger and a prophet.
-
And mention in the Book, Ishmael. Indeed, he was true to his promise, and he was a messenger and a prophet.
-
And mention in the Book, Idrees. Indeed, he was a man of truth and a prophet.
The Quran confirms that the above stories were told in the Book of Musa and not in separate books. It was written 1000 years before the 4th Century. Besides the Quran also confirms that the Book of Musa has only 2 sections, the Torah and Injeel and not in 66 books as in the Jewish and Christians blatant lies.

Salaam,
Considered the pathetic interpretation of Quran by the year 800-1000 interpreters it is as if they interpreted a completely foreign text with little to no clue of what it said whatsoever, so it would not be surprising if Quran was revealed in the 4th century. It would be more understandable if it had been at least a 500-600 years between composition and available interpretations, when you take the inaccurate understandings of what it says. The interpreters could not simply read and interpret it but they had to take it as scholarly work. All added diacritical marks and mistakes of scribes testify to that.
And due to this people should not just take available lexicons or understanding of passages as obvious. Not even classical grammar.
But it is not certain that one plagiarized the other, especially if the knowledge was not unique but several people knew it.

Okay. But it is still not specified if it is that sort of knowledge which is "concealed".
Most of the knowledge the clergy has concealed and distorted from the prophets is the perception of the "God" phenomenon. And on top of that a lot of invented terms to justify a more ritualistic faith. When the scripture came they had to justify their namaz etc, so they intentionally took an innocent word and basically said "this means our ritual prayer!"

Quranic evidence which I have shown you proofs that the Last Prophet Muhammad was not and Arab, as such, the Original Quran in its eloquent tongue was not "Arabic". I do not have concrete evidence of the Original and if suppose I have it now, than, that is an authority from ALLAH to me, similarly, like the authority that was given to Thalut. The Quran
And their prophet said to them, "Indeed, a sign of his kingship is that the chest will come to you all in which is assurance from your Lord and a remnant of what the family of Moses and the family of Aaron had left, carried by the angels. Indeed in that is a sign for you all, if you are believers."
However, that is beside the point. Do you need coins to proof your point when Quranic evidence is manifest throughout the Quran? In my case, Quranic evidence comes first then historical evidence.
You said Abraha and his descendants rules South Arabia until your so called coming of Islam. I am sorry to say that you are wrong. After his death, his son took over but not for long.
Abraha was not an Aksumite nor was he a Christian. In fact from the epithet of the inscription, he was a South Arabian and known as the the Most Gracious's Messiah.
Translation
"With the power of the Most Gracious, and His Messiah King Abraha Zeebman, the King of Saba'a, Zuridan, and Hadrmaut and Yemen and the tribes (on) the mountains and the coast wrote these lines on his battle against the tribe of Ma'ad (in) the battle of al-Rabiya in the month of "Dhu al Thabithan" and fought all of Bani A'amir and appointed the King Abi Jabar with Kinda and Al, Bishar bin Hasan with Sa'ad, Murad, and Hadarmaut in front of the army against Bani Amir of Kinda. and Al in Zu Markh valley and Murad and Sa'ad in Manha valley on the way to Turban and killed and captured and took the booty in large quantities and the King and fought at Halban and reached Ma'ad and took booty and prisoners, and after that, conquered Omro bin al-Munzir. (Abrha) appointed the son (of Omro) as the ruler and returned from Hal Ban (Halban) with the power of the Almighty in the month of Zu A'allan in the year sixty-two and six hundred."
Mentioned Abraha claimed to be the Messiah and pass away in 662 CE?
