Oldest Qur?an manuscript MA VI 165
-
If the god only sent messengers to its own community it means it is very unevenly balanced, since people who came with comprehensive messages went to Middle-East but left the rest of the world to its own destiny.
Actually the message of the Messiah spread all over Europe and into the Hellenistic Roman Empire and caused change usually for the better in the long run. Christian values are well known still as of today and is probably an influence on Socialism.
Yet some people deny that there was no Messianic figure who caused a lasting effect on the European community, while the catastrophic Middle-East generally contended those values and are still 2000 years later backwards on things such as human rights, peace, stability and the technology is usually borrowed, and propagating Dark Age philosophy which not even Jesus who were before Quran would stand behind. It is one thing with the (political) "Son of God" blabber, but the broken church also brought so-called Christian values and a kind of renewal a millennium later with Martin Luther and the German Protestant movement. Read up on history. It is arguable whether Martin Luther could not be considered a little messenger of his own.
Much of the early development of the Arabian culture is thanks to Roman and Greek conquest and cooperation with Arab communities such as the Nabetaens. The Arab 'Golden Age' is thanks to Persian clerics and Romans who brought fairly civilized communities around them compared to contesting barbarians.
It easy to become opinionated and claim every ancient community as evil and good-for-nothing because they were active in war and conquest and often with lacking human rights and slavery to various degree, but both the Persian Achemenid (and to some extent the successors) and Roman (Greco-Roman) empires were successful because they because they civilized their surroundings in bringing technological advancement but also well working governmental systems and spoke of real justice. Yes, there existed a justice system in the Roman Empire. The Achemedian system was innovative and effective for its time. The Greco-Romans are likely inspired by what the ancient Persians brought forth. During their time they were quite renowned even if not loved due to politics. Morals and order is also what brings forth a good civilization instead of brutes.
It is ignorance which causes people to look down on the Messianic influence Jesus had on the European society. It is the politicized Christianity which has been bad for Europe while the message of value was beneficial. Christian values can be said to be the influence on Socialism and also Communism (which unfortunately has an undeserved bad reputation).
Quran textually attacks "Bani Israel" and focuses on Arabs. Should the rest of the world ignore it too and not only Jesus for Christians?
And sorry for being off-topic which we all are here who posted recently.

Is an English discourse not explicit for a Chinese who has learnt a second language?
With this Arabic Quran, there are so many dispute in the translation, you know very well, no two Qur'anists can ever agree on a single translation or interpretation of a verse in the Qur'an.
Besides, the fact is 1404, which tells us explicitly that for every people there are / were Messengers who convey / conveyed the message to them IN THEIR LANGUAGE TO MAKE CLEAR TO THEM.

Dear All, Peace,
If u read old Egyptian history,pictorial sigh language
and figures engraved in hard rock,which nature cannot rub-off or make them vanish.writing and making pictures on stone is very very old,older than old Egypt,Islam came to this world much later,now my question to Alah is,why did you not engraved the quran on stone..??? This forum is full of debate as to which was the oldest quran,were there markings or dots? Arabic grammer ws yet not developed,so why did Allah not enraved whole of quran with its meanings on stones or on a mountain..??? My take is that God wanted every one of us to draw his own picture of a religion which he thinks is the best,this will give him an OK from God,but should not try to impose it on others,imposing will weaken you ,take away your energies and knowledge,this is why there are hardly a few people who have energy and knowledge,they force nothing on u ,but you are inspired by u ,this is the right way but very few adopt it,I need ur help and suggestions ,thanks for reading this. rotfl welcome -
Exactly, Marifhaq, Quran came in a language people could not understand albeit perfectly clear for the person who could work out its grammar system which is not particularly hard actually, but it does not help the interpreters to improvise and come up with something to suit their own flimsy sectarian doctrine. Perhaps not utterly intentional, but they sure tailored it so Quran suited their doctrine rather than the opposite, i.e. their doctrine suited Quran.
Be safe

Sorry but again you are speculating when the Quran is very clear and easy to comprehand.
Quranic Evidence 6304
And when you see them, you wonder their personality and when they speak, you listen to their speech. Indeed they were MUSNAD WOOD.
The above verse shows that the Prophet were with those who spoke the South Arabian Musnad language. As a Prophet, he was sent to all people and conveyed the Quran in several different languages .
So base from the verse 1404, messengers were sent to his own people in order to make things clear to them. The Prophet went to South Arabia and a Messenger among the South Arabian was selected so as to convey the message to the South Arabians in their own language.
The Quran 16103; And We certainly know that they say, "It is a MORTAL WHO TEACHES HIM. THE TONGUE OF THE ONE WHO DEVIATES ON HIM IS FOREIGN and this is clear Arabic language.
The verse above shows that the mortal person was a foreigner, who taught him, that is, the student, who was an Arab considering the fact that the Quran in Arabic was the teaching material! This shows clearly that the Prophet of the Quran was not an Arab but a foreigner and taught the Arab Messenger.
As such, verse 6304 proofs that the OLDEST ARABIC VERSION OF THE QURAN WAS WRITTEN IN SOUTH ARABIAN MUSNAD!
You want to know how South Arabian phonology, see below

Hello Hizbullah,
No matter what you are speculating yourself, Quran was not even interpreted when I realized there was an entirely different writing and some clerics and scholars tailored it as according to themselves. Obviously it appears Quran is not as easy and comprehensive, at least not to those fools and those who followed them blindly without investigating logically themselves. I can agree that Quran is not particularly hard to decipher if you are witted enough to disillusion the bubble that those ancient interpreters tried to cover Quran with.

Hello Brother MOF and Peace
No matter what you are speculating yourself,
I am not speculating, as you can see, I have shown numerous Quranic and Historical evidences to prove my point.
Quran was not even interpreted when I realized there was an entirely different writing and some clerics and scholars tailored it as according to themselves. Obviously it appears Quran is not as easy and comprehensive, at least not to those fools and those who followed them blindly without investigating logically themselves. I can agree that Quran is not particularly hard to decipher if you are witted enough to disillusion the bubble that those ancient interpreters tried to cover Quran with.
So you did realized of a different writings but than you said i am speculating? What you mean Quran was not even interpreted when you realized there was an entirely different writings? If you dont mind elobrate.

First off, Nabatean was never an Arabic language. In fact even up till today, the people of the Levant never consider themselves as Arabs. There are thousands of stele found in the Levant, from Syria to down south Jordan, with Nabatean inscription compare to Syriac which actually derives from Nabatean and not the other way round. Parthian, Middle Persian, Khawarimian, Soghdian - all contains Huzwaresh, which means words that were Nabatean in origin. Anyone within that area would be able to comprehend these languages.
The Arabic of the Quran was tailored by the Arabs of AlHira by combining these two languages, Musnad and Nabatean, into one which is known today as Arabic using its first script, Jazm. So that is why you can find many so called Syriac words which is actually Nabatean in the Quran!
So the early Arabic script, Jazm, was independently developed by the South Arabian tribes, under the influence of the Persians, who were their ally, from localized versions of cursive Musnad, in the 5th / 6th century. After all, early Jazm shares with Musnad its exact 28 letters. It also shares with it an early use of multiple shapes per letter that became widely utilized later. It even used several Musnad shapes without major modifications. Jazm may have coexisted with and influenced by more prominent Aramaic scripts in its vicinity and particularly Nabataean. However Jazm approach to connectivity and shapes was quite different.
Bushr ibn `Abd al- Malik al-Kind, believed to be a so called ?Christian? Arab, was the first to bring Jazm from Hrah to Mecca. Bushr was the brother of al-Ukaydir, a leader from ancient Dumat al-Jandal (ouside Sakkah of northern Saudi Arabia) that is located 200 miles southwest of Hrah. At that time, during the 5th - 6th centuries, it was the capital of the Arab kingdom of Kinda. Below is a rough translation of the so called ?Pre Islamic? poem, attributed to a man from Mecca or Dumat al-Jandal, which is widely referenced in Arabic literature
Do not deny Bushr?s favors to you
He was a man of open blessed wisdomHe brought you al-Jazm calligraphy until you saved
the money that was plenty and scatteredYou then moved the pens back and forth
as skilful as scribers of Kisr?* and Qaysar ?And had no need to Musnad of father Himyr ?
and whatever the Himyrite* kings wrote on pagesThese occurred during the Arabization of the Middle East by the Arabs under Queen Maviya in the late 4th century / early 5th Century. Queen Maviya was the predecessor of Bani Ummayah or better known as Bani Umm Maviya - Children of Mother Maviya.

The Quran 4144
And if We had made it a non-Arabic recitation, they would have said, "Why are its verses not explained in detail ? Foreign and Arabic... Say, "It is, for those who believe, a guidance and cure." And those who do not believe - in their ears is deafness, and it is upon them blindness. Those are being called from a distant place.
So whether it is Arabic or not, The Quran is from ALLAH!
Quran 16103 makes no difference about the language of the Quran. Its about 2 subjects, one a Teacher who was a foreigner and the other one a student, who was an Arab. What it is telling us is that the audience of the Quran was puzzled. Puzzled to the extent that they could not comprehend how a Non-Arab teaching an Arab a Book which contains Arabic materials. A Non-Arab teaching an Arab is just like an Indian teacher teaching Chinese student Mandarin. Fact is, it is possible for an Indian to teach the Chinese Mandarin. But it would definitely cause a stir in school especially the students parents!

Peace Hizbullah -- it is important to stay focused one verse and point at a time not be all over the place.
In context of chapter 63 (11 verses) it is about hypocrites and likewise we know about different scripts.

Peace Noon,
it is important to stay focused one verse and point at a time not be all over the place.
You have to let the Quranic verses explain the Quran. That means you have to cross reference. Thats how you will be able to comprehend the Quran. The audience of the Quran was the Arabs considering the facts that the scenerio, the people and even their speech were all of South Arabian.
In context of chapter 63 (11 verses) it is about hypocrites and likewise we know about different scripts.

This is the hadithers way of explaining the Quran. What does all those verses have to do with 6304? Cant you see, the Quran is showing us things that those clerics trying to cover up!

No, you did not explain and took a verse out of context implied that the phrase ka-annahum khushubun musannadatun that it refers to running into some group of people speaking a non-existent Arabic language and confused it with an ancient script.

Never mentioned hadith showed 634 in full context of whole chapter that it is about hypocrites in general and showed for benefit of others examples for ka-annahum/like they; not some non-existed Arabic musnad language-speaking group of people as you claimed.
Let's not confuse ancient scripts with languages e.g. Amarna letters written in ancient Akkadian script which was standard for communication at the time for peoples who spoke different languages as English script/fonts most use today like to write these posts.

Peace Noon...
I m not going to force you to believe. It shows clearly you have no interest in reading what i have written. Btw, its you who read the Quran out of context by following those moronic sectarian clergy and i dont blame you for not comprehending this garbage language. If this Arabic version Quran were in Musnad, it will be easier to comprehend!
6304 explicitly shows who the hypocrites were, the people, their speech and their writings.
And when you see them, YOU WONDER THEIR PERSONALITY AND WHEN THEY SPEAK, YOU LISTEN TO THEIR SPEECH. Indeed they were MUSNAD WOOD. They reckon all vociferate is on them...
compare with these ridiculous sectarian translation
634 and when sees thou them impressed you ajsmuhum/corporeal theirs and if speak they of hear/listen to speech theirs ka-annahum/like they khushubun/wood beams musannadatun/propped up calculating/thinking each shout against them themselves the enemy so beware them fight/perish them the god surely how deluding
