FNM,
I have read your arguments to-date on this topic (Zul Qarnain) and have selected these videos especially for you
I dont recall discussing much about Zul Qarnain on this forum. Are you perhaps referring to 1886 - is that one of your strongest Quran errors?
I'll be honest with you, I cant be bothered checking this thread regularly. If you actually do come up with what I asked PM me so I dont miss it.
Until then, peace out.

I also see huge effort made by some people here trying to explain to him things...
I'm pretty sure he isn't going to read any of that as I wouldn't if I hated the Quran as much as he did and came here to bash only.Salaam/Peace Cerberus,
if F-N-M is truly a sincere and truthful Person, in his mind & heart, (as he claims above he is)
he has a perfect chance to seek The Truth here,
and be redeemed by The Most Gracious & The Most Merciful AL-LAH,
in such a Wonderful Manner hereQURAN TESTAMENT 25/68-69-70-71, 72-73-74-75-76
but if he is a liar who has already decided to keep himself firmly locked in his ignorance, no matter what,
he can only blame himself for his misery.I want to see and understand it, first, with hundred percent certainty what is in his mind & heart.
Remain in peace/salaam.

Peace everyone,
Burden of proof is not on the one who makes a negative claim but on the one who makes a positive claim. For example
CLAIM A = "the current text of the quran is not from God in its entirety".
CLAIM B = "the current text of the quran is from God in its entirety".The burden of proof will be on the one making claim B and not on the one making claim A.
Following is an excerpt from an article on burden of proof in order to clarify rules of a logical discussion
"The instances of circumstances that provide nuanced exceptions (see below) to the rule are so few and misleading to let it appear they nullify the rule that it is far better to just state that the burden of proof is always on the claim that X exists rather than on the claim that X does not exist. It is a fallacy to claim that X exists unless you prove that there is no X. What is improper is for a person to claim that "X exists" and when asked to prove it, then the person who made the claim uses as a defense of "X exists" the next claim that no one has proven that X does not exist.
If a person claims that X exists and is real then the burden is on that person to supply some support for that claim, some evidence or proof that others can and should examine before accepting it. It is incorrect to think that X exists and is real until someone can prove that there is no X. It is also wrong to think that just because you can not prove that X exists that does not mean that X does not exist and therefore X does exist."
"The person making a negative claim cannot logically prove nonexistence. And here's why to know that a X does not exist would require a perfect knowledge of all things (omniscience). To attain this knowledge would require simultaneous access to all parts of the world and beyond (omnipresence). Therefore, to be certain of the claim that X does not exist one would have to possess abilities that are non-existent. Obviously, mankind's limited nature precludes these special abilities."

Peace
I don't agree, I think the burden of proof is on the one who claims, positive or negative.

1886 Until he reached the setting of the sun, and he found it setting at a black water, and he found near it a people. We said, "O Two Eras, either you are to punish, or you are to do them good.
till, when he came to the setting of the sun, it appeared to him that it was setting in a dark, turbid sea; and nearby he found a people . We said "O thou Two-Horned One! Thou mayest either cause to suffer or treat them with kindness
The sun was setting and it appeared to him as if it was setting in the dark waters. (The local people, given to wrongdoing, fought against him and lost.) We said, "O Zul-Qarnain! Either punish or be kind to them."
now
a common pharse for a story in pure grammitical way...
mr x reached at a place... it appears to mr x sun is setting in the dark sea...
dosent mean sun really set in dark sea... its appears to mr x and zulqarnain that its setting there..
incorrect sentence should be like this...
mr x claim the place of setting sun in dark sea... instead of rotation with respect to the view of horizon... )

I did answer it. Quran has no tolerance for people with different beliefs. Therefore I have no tolerance for the Quran.
according to surah al-kafirun, the quran has great tolerance for kafirs - just let them be - and thats based on standard sectarian translation.
-
I don't agree, I think the burden of proof is on the one who claims, positive or negative.
But this is a "hard to prove" topic, so both parties have a burden of proof. You cannot exactly in a scientific way prove that Quran is from God, but you cannot also disprove that Quran is not from God. In the end it is a matter of interpretation by the individual whether the book is from God or is not from God. It is just for each person to put forth their arguments why and why not, and then for each person to evaluate the arguments.
And "burden of proof" is a human invention. Someone decided that there should be "burden of proof". Many people say they shun what mankind, particularly since this is from academic sources, has invented, but yet accepting this about "burden of proof". Who cares about burden of proof?
But then again, about whether Quran is from God or not from God is esoteric to know, so it is not very likely that anyone can prove anything concretely except if there started emerging Quran manuscripts out of nowhere (like teleportation) in front of a camera and a bunch of people and a voice said out loud that "this book is indeed authentic", then you have better concrete evidence. That is what is evidence, it must be able to be recorded. But if mankind and science can invent teleportation then perhaps not even Quran manuscripts emerging out of the blue can prove Quran's nature.
No source that you have in the world can prove concretely whether Quran is from God or not from God. Everything is possible to have been mere fabrications.
But, from the book's contents you can prove whether the teachings are spiritually improving by testing, and that you can do and document your progress being able to be used as empirical evidence.
Unfortunately I do not see the teachings of the sectarian interpretation of Quran as particularly spiritually enlightening since some of the people discussing in this thread call for condemnation of so-called kafirs and only speaking in a negative sense only beating down on 'Faith No More' like instinctively animals defending their territory instead of returning something substantial which could be of value to him. If he says something added in the sectarian interpretation of the Quran and calls it illogical then this is a good point and one could always start reflecting upon what it is they read just like he wants others to do.
I am sure 'Faith No More' feels better off spiritually after abandoning these teachings today and then have returned to this forum because since he felt he feels so much better today he thinks that he could help others feel the same. I am sure that his intentions are completely sincere in that regard and are wholehearted.
It is like I did, 2-3 years ago I was standing before two choices, either would I abandon Quran (and probably continue to research more on the Gospels/Injeel) or continue researching on what the heck is the problem with Quran and why the teachings are so primitive. I chose the latter, but 'Faith No More' chose the first. We are similar in the way we attack Quran in some way. I am attacking the interpreters and the interpretation of it while 'Faith No More' with less meat on his legs is attacking the entire scripture, but I am sure he mostly attacks what it says in which he does not know better, and no shame on him. I do not rebuke him for not discovering that the medieval interpreters fabricated an unrelated context on top of an otherwise innocent one. These interpreters' understanding is so established today people take it dogmatically.
I know through the Bible that Quran is proclaimed in it. In the writings of Yese'aye (Isaiah) Quran's case is written out clearly. It is therein written as being something which needs to be put in order, which I interpret as being the state of how Quran is today, completely nonsensical due to a faulty interpretation. If that is true, Quran was prophesied, circa a millennium before the sect Islam hijacked Quran, to be a book requiring to be "cleansed".
If I understand 'Faith No More's case he feels the teachings of Quran as they appear to him to be highly spiritually detrimental to people and this is why he decided to go online to make people aware of that.
Be well

Salaam/Peace Man of Faith,
MATHEMATICS can absolutely prove if a Source is a man made source, or of Heavenly Origin.

AmenuelThere is no problem in QURAN, its Teachings are Absolutely Perfect and Most Advanced.
The problem is only in your own mind, my dear Fellow/Friend, for that reason you are constantly fabricating baseless speculations/assumptions
and repeating them in various forms again and againas if somehow the QURAN would someday fit into your own fundamentally mistaken/deluded/wrongful agenda,
but it never fits and will never fit, you may continue to deceive yourself and a few gullible who would blindly follow you, as long as you wish,
or you may truly repent and return to AL-LAH,
and you may attain to Eternal Salvation and Everlasting Happiness, forever.

Periodically, fromm time to time we get in the forum a person (whether it is always or some ime he ame with a differentnick or not, I don't know) a person who says hat he was a former forum member but that now he has seen better and does not believe in h Qur'an and hen undetkes, for our benefit, I suppose, to ter tdown all our false beliefs.
And he does so that he takes as unshakable truth all he deffects usually adscribed to he Qur'an by foes or friends and which are the most typical false aributions to Qur'an that Qur'an believers usually reject while rescueing while rayig to get the best understanding the ost faithful o he text of the Qur'an.
I happes every so often, so mmuch so hat I feel like giving it he name of
3eid al kafir
because i return faithfully wha, every year? every somany months, and it is always the same. hey look like a photocopy. And the aim I still am nno sure rescue us? Make us look bad as idiots in search of the hidden trasure of the annunakis?
No doubt , to a certain extent it enlives the forum little. For those of us who have been here long though it looses interest and luster and increases distrust of he genuinity of the the perso or personnns and the endeavour.
My commendations to those who take the time to answer these 3eid al kafirs guests. May be some of them cn also answer Why do these Qur'an obssessed 3eid al kafirers do it. Do they get inn each round so mny converts? They have an unshakable hope hat some time they will make a convert to anti Qur'an?
Salaam

Why are you being so obtuse? My first claim is presented in this video presentation.

The word "appeared" does not occur in these verses. Have you checked the Arabic or you inventing your own tafseer.
Also he doesn't reach the "setting of sun" that's a verbal phrase.
1886 uses a noun phrase. Maghrib-al-Shams which means setting-place of the sun.
An example of a verbal phrase can be found in 20130 Tuluay-al-Shams (rising of the sun)

according to surah al-kafirun, the quran has great tolerance for kafirs - just let them be - and thats based on standard sectarian translation.
seriously , sura 109 - is that everything the Quran has to say about the kafir.
That's a meccan sura by the way. The tone of the Quran changes.
What if Obama said. "Muslims are free to follow their faith, but the curse of God is upon them. They are the worst of people. Don't take friends from among them"
Would you say that's o.k?
The Quran repeatedly dehumanizes non-believers. That is the pretext for every genocide in human history.
These verses incite violence and prejudicial action. There is very strong causal link demonstrated by 1400 years of history and present day.

True and appreciated. Man of faith.
I'm sorry but this might come across as harsh. group
Your view is a niche view and will never be accepted by the 1.6 billion Muslims. History has shown this. You are not the first to attempt this.
Also you are assuming that Quran is from God despite over whelming evidence (ref truthseeker's posts) that shows we can't even tell if it's from Mohammed.
There are much better books, evidence, ideas to help humanity live a better life.
What you seem to do is find or arrive at a good idea from your world experience today. You might read a book or look at scientific research and add your own personal bias to arrive at that idea.
The you try and force that idea into the Quran so that you can claim that the Quran knew about that idea first.
Never in the history of the Quran has it ever been on the right side of any moral argument. We always blame it on "interpretation" never the book itself.
For example take homosexuality.
Through research and real world observation you might determine that it's perfectly natural and o.k. Then you will go into the and Quran twist the Lot story and other verses.
Ignore history where necessary and say "Hey, the Quran is ok with gay sex".I did that...for many years. It's a disease of the mind. It's called cognitive dissonance.
You are prolonging the painful death of Islam (in fact all religions). It wants to die and be at peace with Thor and Zeus, but people like you won't let it be.
I want you to fully understand the role you are playing today in the suffering of the Muslim world just so that you can cling to your beliefs.
peace

How is being gay natural and ok? Go try it if it's so natural and tell me how you feel about it. Unless you are into these disgusting acts already, which makes you worse than an animal, since they know how to differentiate between male and female.
Quran didn't lead to any murders or wars in the last 1400 years, it's human nature you idiot. Last 15 years, over a million muslims killed by western countries, was it because of the Quran? And they have all the democracies, freedom of speech, human rights, etc...
Ofc kafirs are the worst, they deny their creator. It's like they are the failed subjects in an experiment that need to be thrown away at the end.
You are using the same arguments any non believer would use and act as if a world without the Quran is a better place but you never look at the otherside. Like I said, hell is waiting for you on the other side, I know you are trying hard here to convince yourself and others to follow you just like what Satan did and is still doing. Its fear and hatred but you are the loser in the end.

Man of Faith, this is what the Quran alone movement has produced after 20 years.
After 100 years they will have same interpretation as ISIS.
How many examples do you need that it's the Quran that is the source of hate, intolerance and backwardness. It regresses the mind.
You know the great Muslims of the so called Golden age were all heretics, atheist and agnostics. That's why we burned all their books.
Please reflect on what I am saying.

Oh thank-you for typing this out and highlighting the BOTH occurrences wajada
Saved me the trouble.
You know wajada literally means to find or discover something. In this case our hero finds/discovers that the sun sets in a spring.
Also are you saying that in the first case wajada means he thought he saw the sun going into (Fi) spring and but then in the second case it means he really did find a community next to it.
Holy shit .... that's some mental gymnastics going on there.
If the sun was on the horizon how can the community (qawamn) be near it (indaha)?
Remember this is a spring (Ayn) not sea (bahr).

You are a person that believes being homo is natural. Your opinions are invalid.
I don't care about the religion of who ever these people were in the golden age. Even some sunni muslims are very successful now, it has nothing to do with religion.
Next time start posting evidence instead of just attacking the Quran.

Oh thank-you for typing this out and highlighting the BOTH occurrences wajada
welcome for this...
Saved me the trouble.
you are already in a trouble yes
You know wajada literally means to find or discover something. In this case our hero finds/discovers that the sun sets in a spring.
RED ? discover and find do you think there is any difference in between two... dis-cover , find..
my eyes find the shape of star is like five angle light..
my telescope dis-cover no its a sun like star.... hmmAlso are you saying that in the first case wajada means he thought he saw the sun going into (Fi) spring and but then in the second case it means he really did find a community next to it.
Holy shit .... that's some mental gymnastics going on there.
haha shit is in your mind ... a gymnastic of rejection is going on there...
If the sun was on the horizon how can the community (qawamn) be near it (indaha)?
look at my example i just given...
finding something on earth by eyes infront of you and finding something on jupiter by eyes(with telescope)... whats the difference ? elektro rings of jupiter ooops lol
your mask man never told you what is difference between literal.. and views and eyes?
actually i just want to share with you my favourite place for spending time...
i always wanted to see sun is setting in the sea...in the time of setting of sun.. i keep it watching in sea.. i feel great..
and if my mom call me and ask me what r u doing i replied her,, mom i m watching sun is setting in sea... its beautiful view...
thats y i love when i found it setting in the sea... or some murky waters lol.... and i also found out sometimes community around me half naked lol hahaha ...
