GOD s revelation V Men s fabrications. Truth V Falsehood
-
Peace jkhan.
To answer your last post and sorry if it goes slightly off topic.
Regarding our role in life, I will clarify my priority and the main message from QoranMy priority about the message of Qoran is the basic message. The most important topic is our works and morals. Not rituals or history with all its stories even though they serve as help and lessons.
I commend all those who strive with Qoran.
However, the deviations are many and the priorities are still not right.We have not got the basics right.
Qoran keeps repeating the "straight path"(our conduct here as humans) and calls it "Wisdom",like the wisdom of Luqman, Abraham.Yes concentrating on the simple message of Qoran . Upholding the "straight path" -like justice, helping others, living as a unit family, being "GOD conscious" and upholding high morals(love, honesty, good thoughts,trust,...) all the qualities required /instructed by GOD( Al-Haqq) that keeps us from being destructive and fighting each other.
These are the basics that we need to highlight and preach . "Straighten up each individual so that the whole community is straight and in harmony" .This clear(no ambiguity whatsoever in it) message is the basic that will set up the agenda and aim of GOD s Deen.
For example the "Muslim" countries have millions of facilities for teaching hadiths and reciting (yes, parroting, sorry to say so) Qoran, but not one institution/facility to ponder/investigate Qoran . It is almost as they are afraid for their people to come across its treasure of knowledge.
So, why should we not turn the so called "Islam" religion upside down to restore its priority( and put as its head the most important pillars
Submission and total loyalty to GOD Alone.
Justice.
Honesty.
Trust.
Help and care.
Well being of the brothers and sisters.
Family/community health (environment,self and social)
Good works and good morals.These must be fundamentals before any of what Muslims call worship rituals. This will turn the Deen into a "straight path".
"Kuntum Khaira Ummatin..."Applied for a few years when the prophet was alive, then Shayateen took over!!!!We have proof of that in Qoran;" Innaka Mayitun Wa Innahum Mayitoon, Thumma Innakum Yawma Alqiyamati Takhtasimoon" i.e you will die(Prophet" and they will die(Those who took over after you-Traditional Islam-) then on the day of judgement you will "Takhtasinmoom"( Argue/disagree/be opposites). Yes the prophet will clearly be against his umma.
For me the questions discussed here are not the priority. They may even be irrelevant if we do not recognise the clear "straight path" from Qoran
Thank you brother.
GOD bless you.
Peace. -
Peace jkhan.
Just to clarify further what I said in my last post,What is the straight path?There is no doubt that GOD does not require anything from us ,in fact GOD does not need or depend on anything created.
Straight path is "Ibada"/Following GOD s path.Wa Ma Khalaktu Al Jinn Wa Al Ins Illa Liyabuduni!? The reason behind creating the Jinns and Ins is only for "YAbuduni"
This does not mean worship by doing rituals for sure.
Let us look at it from Qoran point of view
1- Wa Ani Ubuduni. Hada Siratun Mustaqueem- And "Ubudini, this is the straight path.
So if "Ubudu" Allah is the straight path, what is the straight path?
Again Qoran defines the straight path here
2-6151
Say, "Come let me tell you what your Lord has really prohibited for you You shall not set up idols besides Him. You shall honor your parents. You shall not kill your children from fear of poverty - we provide for you and for them. You shall not commit gross sins, obvious or hidden. You shall not kill - God has made life sacred - except in the course of justice. These are His commandments to you, that you may understand."
قُل تَعالَوا أَتلُ ما حَرَّمَ رَبُّكُم عَلَيكُم أَلّا تُشرِكوا بِهِ شَيـًٔا وَبِالوٰلِدَينِ إِحسٰنًا وَلا تَقتُلوا أَولٰدَكُم مِن إِملٰقٍ نَحنُ نَرزُقُكُم وَإِيّاهُم وَلا تَقرَبُوا الفَوٰحِشَ ما ظَهَرَ مِنها وَما بَطَنَ وَلا تَقتُلُوا النَّفسَ الَّتى حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ إِلّا بِالحَقِّ ذٰلِكُم وَصّىٰكُم بِهِ لَعَلَّكُم تَعقِلونَ
6152
You shall not touch the orphans' money except in the most righteous manner, until they reach maturity. You shall give full weight and full measure when you trade, equitably. We do not burden any soul beyond its means. You shall be absolutely just when you bear witness, even against your relatives. You shall fulfill your covenant with God. These are His commandments to you, that you may take heed.
وَلا تَقرَبوا مالَ اليَتيمِ إِلّا بِالَّتى هِىَ أَحسَنُ حَتّىٰ يَبلُغَ أَشُدَّهُ وَأَوفُوا الكَيلَ وَالميزانَ بِالقِسطِ لا نُكَلِّفُ نَفسًا إِلّا وُسعَها وَإِذا قُلتُم فَاعدِلوا وَلَو كانَ ذا قُربىٰ وَبِعَهدِ اللَّهِ أَوفوا ذٰلِكُم وَصّىٰكُم بِهِ لَعَلَّكُم تَذَكَّرونَ
6153
This is My path - a straight one. You shall follow it, and do not follow any other paths, lest they divert you from His path. These are His commandments to you, that you may be saved.
وَأَنَّ هٰذا صِرٰطى مُستَقيمًا فَاتَّبِعوهُ وَلا تَتَّبِعُوا السُّبُلَ فَتَفَرَّقَ بِكُم عَن سَبيلِهِ ذٰلِكُم وَصّىٰكُم بِهِ لَعَلَّكُم تَتَّقونَSo Ibada is following the straight path which are the commandments above? Is GOD asking us to do anything for Him?
Actually right at the beginning of Qoran, those who believe and want to straighten themselves are asking two things here
3-Iyaka Nabudu Wa Iyaka Nastaeen- You Alone we "Nabudu" and from you Alone we seek help.Ibada is following GOD s path-Sirat Al Mustaqueem-
For me "Worshipping GOD" is straighten yourself by following GOD -sirat Al Mustaqueem -to live life a good human to yourself and others to earn your salvation. i.e Follow GOD s example set out for you in His message."_Ittabiu Ahsana Ma Unzila Ilaykum Min Rabbikum" FOLLOW THE BEST PATH INDICATED FOR YOU FROM YOUR LORD IN QORAN- SIRAT AL MUSTAQUEEM.
GOD bless you.

Peace.Yes agreed... 6151 onwards are some of Allahs Straight paths...
-
A chapter 109 indicates the connection between DEEN and ABD ie Serving.. When it states for you your Deen and for me my deen..Thus there are directions prople have fabricated and accordingly they serve their life... Allah's path is cleared in His Deen and that's all what a believer has to serve and not fabrications..

So the prophet received 7 copies?
Wait ,some say there are ten different transmissions. One could make up their own as well if they want. Irrelevant. The one master tablet of GOD is unique and preserved no matter what people do or transmit.
Make sure you are satisfied with your copy or copies and follow the core message of Qoran that we are all accountable for..
I am satisfied that my copy contains my message and know that I will answer to GOD Alone about it.
GOD bless you.

Salaam,
You're rude by not quoting me directly and making assumptions. There are hundreds of errors that contradict the logical context in Warsh and Hafs, which also contradict older manuscripts.
Like others on this site, you refuse to answer simple questions and divert, which is no different from hadith hearsay followers, Christian missionaries, numerologists, et al. Your minds are fixed (brainwashed).
The Qur'an didn't drop out of the sky; we have a chain of transmitters. Hafs, popular today at 95%, came via a liar who fabricated hundreds of hadith, whereas a few hundred years ago Warsh was dominant. Now we have older manuscripts and logical context to resolve issues instead of claiming they are all correct.
I posted two examples out of hundreds. Which is correct and why?
-
I would like to ask for a simple clarification.
The differences among the various Qira'at include variations in pronunciation, dialect, and sometimes slight differences in wording and vowelization. These variations do not change the overall meaning of the Quran.
Is the above statement true or not?
For me these variations highlight the meticulous preservation and rich oral tradition of the Quran.
Now Bajram says in his last post that Hafs ibn Sulayman was a lair and fabricated many hadiths? As far as I know he does not have a significant presence in the major hadith collections or the famous hadith books that we know of today? He is not known as a prominent hadith narrator, and his reputation among hadith scholars is not particularly strong. In fact, there are critical views about him in the context of hadith transmission. Some hadith scholars have questioned his reliability as a narrator of hadith.
So Hafs ibn Sulayman is primarily known for his role in the transmission of the Quranic recitation rather than for narrating hadiths. His fame and expertise lie in his contribution to the science of Quranic recitation (Tajweed and Qira'at), particularly through his transmission from Aasim ibn Abi al-Najud (His teacher).I can only conclude that While Hafs ibn Sulayman's reputation in hadith transmission may be questioned, his expertise and reliability in Quranic recitation are well-established and widely accepted. Unless we question his Quran reciation solely because he was a bad in Hadith transmission... I think this is not justified.
The multiple Qira'at are a testament to the Quran's linguistic richness and divine preservation rather than evidence of its corruption. The core message of the Quran remains unchanged and universally accepted by the Muslim community, supported by historical, linguistic, and scholarly evidence. -
Peace Bajram Hoxhaj.
Qoran in all its stages has been part of a bigger plan that will culminate in the unveiling of the mathematical composition of the Qoran.
This confirmed that all the stages were totally under control of God Almighty. The mathematical miracle will be with us to the end of time and will be an effective tool in distinguishing a correctly written Qoran from one with human errors and will make it possible to have a one standardized edition of the Qoran.This means whatever change the people would do to the revealed Qoran, whether done deliberately or not will be exposed and corrected as the original is preserved with God. God, being the Most Merciful , also provided us with a method and a proof to verify the accuracy of the Qoran..
Unlike the claims made by many Muslim scholars, the Mus-hafs that exist today and around the world are not the same as many of them still carry the human errors that were not corrected.
They do not match word by word or letter by letter and they are not what God promised to preserve and protect.The only fool proof copy and accurate one for those who think the old Mushafs have no errors would be to find the original copy written by the prophet and compare..
I am saying brother that the prophet has left one version. The Hafs version of today comes very close to it according to the mathematical composition.
Obviously, from my conversations with you in the past, we differ in our view on this.
Thank you.
GOD bless you.

Salaam,
Some are minor, others are major. See the video posted earlier on the chain of transmitters. You can't have seven or more permutations of 1,000 words, as they don't make sense in context, contradict basic language rules, or show inconsistencies (e.g., lost/won the Romans, wipes/wash the feet, missing words, etc.), and claim all are correct because it was revealed that way.

Salaam again good logic,
You follow Qur'an according to Hafs, which has errors, e.g.
214 قَالَ (qāla, he said) -- again who is speaking? Who is "he"?You harp on hadith and too proud to admit you don't know?

تَعْمَلُونَ taʿmalūna | thou working (Hafs)
OR
يَعْمَلُونَ yaʿmalūna | they working (Warsh)214
قَالَ qāla | he said (Hafs) | who said?
OR
قُلْ qul | say (Warsh)I have brought few verses which are translations of Sahih international, since the topic is about not meaning but mistakes in Quran..
It is very easy to identify with the flow of the verses and the context whether verse states THEY or YOU.. decide yourself..285 Then, you are those killing one another and evicting a party of your people from their homes, cooperating against them in sin and aggression. And if they come to you as captives, you ransom them, although their eviction was forbidden to you. So do you believe in part of the Scripture and disbelieve in part? Then what is the recompense for those who do that among you except disgrace in worldly life; and on the Day of Resurrection they will be sent back to the severest of punishment. And not Allah aware of what you/they do.
286 Those are the ones who have bought the life of this world for the Hereafter, so the punishment will not be lightened for them, nor will they be aided.
2144 Indeed, those who have been given the Scripture well know that it is the truth from their Lord. And not Allah aware of what they do.
2141 That is a nation which has passed on. It will have what it earned, and you will have what you have earned. And you will not be asked about what they used to do.Read 285 to 286 and figure out what exactly Allah has spoken like you can figure out 2141 and 2144 etc...
The letter ‘THA’ and the letter ‘YA’ are just a matter of two dots up or down or missing totally…but the letter will look the same… All you have to do is read verses and get it right..
Same with words QUL or QALA.. anyone can write them just with a little space or almost joined, so it would look either QUL or QALA but look for meaning…
But in 2114 it is neither QUL nor QALA but it is QALU (They said),,,,, read the verse “They said, "O woe to us! Indeed, we were wrongdoers.” How can this verse would start with QUL and QALA while it states ‘woe to US’ and it further states ‘WE were wrongdoers’same with 214 He said, "My Lord knows whatever is said throughout the heaven and earth, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing."
So how can this verse be QALA instead of QUL... because it is stated 'MY Lord knows' even though it seems like the messenger is speaking on his own but in the literal sense the verse is from Allah and asking to SAY / QUL 'MY LORD KNOWS'.. get things right with logic..
Just read the Quran which is in your hand and look for the Guidance of Allah and there will be nothing between you and the guidance of Allah.. No point in wasting time on which Quran to choose and it is better to look for guidance from Allah with the Quran you have.. Not advice to you specifically but for all including me..
thank you

It is very easy to identify with the flow of the verses and the context whether verse states THEY or YOU.. decide yourself..
285 ... And not Allah aware of what you/they do.

Yes Hafs clear error as already stated per context.
same with 214 He said, "My Lord knows whatever is said throughout the heaven and earth, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing."

Hafs error cannot be "he said" in context unstated who "he" is.
Qāla Rabbī pertains to a dialogue only single occurrence
26188 he said "lord mine knows in what thou working"Clearly not قَالُوا رَبَّنَا Qālū Rabbanā as 23106 3861 4011 "said they lord ours"
Hence, 214 قُلْ رَبِّي Qul Rabbī "say lord mine" as in 1822 2885
Old manuscripts Qul and Qāla are spelled the same قل need to use context.

We accept the Quran, not Hafs or Warsh version is right ... they are right or wrong as they have written is not our concern..

Peae Bajram Hoxhaj.
So are you not making an assumption here about me?Quote
"You harp on hadith and too proud to admit you don't know?
285 تَعْمَلُونَ (taʿmalūna, thou? working in Hafs) 286 those the ones...Brother, if you know why don t you correct the mistakes and evidence your work and there will be no issue about the ones who do not know like myself?
If you have a problem with Interlock and the mathematical composition,then find another way to sort out the problem of all the issues of all these variations and come up with the right version with evidence.
Remember ,with your method, until you find the copy of the prophet to compare with, you are stuck.If you say I have issues with Hafs with correction by the composition, ,then you have issues with all of them, or don t you believe in any?
May be you do not see the irony.
Or you stay with yours and I stay with mine. Then following the message of Qoran by doing will sort us out not by saying..
GOD bless you.
Peace. -
Don't look for Hafs or Warsh
OK
There are hundreds of errors that contradict the logical context in Warsh and Hafs, which also contradict older manuscripts.
If you have a problem with Interlock and the mathematical composition
What does 'interlock,' whatever that means, have to do with the topic? I asked you simple questions about why you use Hafs, which has numerous errors that you consistently avoid answering, just like others on this site who spam the forum with rants, avoid answering, divert, or run away, similar to missionaries, followers of baseless hearsay, numerologists, and others.
Why not answer the two questions as jkhan did? Then we can move on to countless other errors.
Salaam

Peace Bajram Hoxhaj.
I have answered you. I do not have any issue with the Hafs I follow like you claim.
The version of Hafs , the most commonly used and widespread transmission was proven by the mathematical composition of the Quran to be the version that meets all the criteria built in the Quran's mathematical structure as God promised in 159, 8521-22 and 7430-31.
This includes the Rasm, (Orthography) of the Quran as well as the numbering, naming and division of the suras and verses.
For me, I am happy to use this version and I do not see a problem like you do .
Rashad s version is also similar here
https//submission.org/QI
Of course there are few things I may not agree with in his translation ,but the Arabic version fits.I also have no issue with those who use any version if they use Qoran Alone and follow GOD s message in their life, as the errors/variations do not impact on the message nor the guidance which is up to GOD Alone and does not depend on versions. It depends on the sincerity of the individual.
Hope that answers your query.
GOD bless you.

I want to clarify a very important point for all of us to note regarding GOD s granted freedom to every human
1099 Had your Lord willed, all the people on earth would have believed. Do you want to force the people to become believers?
This is very much relevant here ,because there will always be differences and this fact should teach us to respect that every human have the right to their chosen freedom.
Since on the personal level we are free to accept our own choices and make our own decisions, then no one should force anyone to believe or otherwise. As long as this person is keeping it for him/herself, is peaceful and does not corrupt the community and fight God's laws, he/she can keep such freedom.
In reality,because of this freedom,there exist countless of versions of any scripture according to the interpretations/understanding /...of the individual.
When I am discussing here , I am aware of this point and do not mind all views, I accept that is normal.At the time of the prophet ,even as only few verses came down, the division started. It is naive of us to discount all possibilities of different interpretations and sides /clans that led to sects and division after that up to our time. The three categories of believers, hypocrites/manipulators/pretenders and disbelievers existed from day 1.
It is irrelevant how many variations or which is the right one. GOD s test requires a criteria and those choosing GOD and submission will be guided towards the truth eventually.However,if we are believers, Qoran has taught me that We can easily be divided if we advocate other than GOD's laws in the name of freedom, the false freedom, and we can ONLY be united if we advocate God's laws and stand for it even when there is only minority to do so.
We have to side with GOD all the time or we would be siding with the opposition/ Satan.
It is not Qoran alone that unites ,it is GOD Alone that unites or otherwise. with it.
You shall hold fast to the rope of GOD, all of you, and do not be divided.
The advocators of righteousness and forbidders of evil, and the keepers of GOD's laws. Give good news to such believers.
GOD bless you all.

Peace.Let me add to your beautiful message something else from my end since we all herald the Message of Allah..
1032 "For that is the Deity, your Lord of the Truth. And what can be after the TRUTH except the FALSEHOOD? So how are you turning away?"
In a nutshell, there is neither compromise nor difference of opinions is acceptable when it comes to the TRUTH of our Lord.. Following the Quran doesn't mean literally that everyone follows the right path which is written in it.. Guidance of Allah is the guidance and the truth and Allah knows who is guided aright. But there could be intention of a person is to follow the Quran so Allah may guide him or her to His Truth and guidance within His book if he or she has taken the wrong option from the Quran....
When we realize the true guidance of Allah from the Quran, just simply surrender to it..
Yes.. keep heralding the message of Allah and take it as our duty and be firm with what you state and from there, your or our job is over and there is no compelling.. But never compromise with falsehood over the truth if you realize that it is falsehood even though they keep reiterating that it is difference of opinion. At the same time always surrender to the truth if you realize that you were in falsehood.
Allah knows what is in our hearts i.e. in our thoughts.. so keep moving on...
as the above verse clearly portrays, TURNING AWAY is the result of following the FALSEHOOD since the TRUTH is not equal to FALSEHOOD... So, my fellow believers, don't TURN AWAY from the TRUTH and embrace to the falsehood..
Peace ...

No, you refuse to answer simple questions, e.g., who said in 214? You are brainwashed and biased, locking in initial false beliefs and locking out the truth. That's how bad ideologies spread.

There can only be one answer according to the context that the verse before 213 gives usTheir minds are heedless. And the transgressors confer secretly "Is he not just a human being like you? Would you accept the magic that is presented to you?"*
لاهِيَةً قُلوبُهُم وَأَسَرُّوا النَّجوَى الَّذينَ ظَلَموا هَل هٰذا إِلّا بَشَرٌ مِثلُكُم أَفَتَأتونَ السِّحرَ وَأَنتُم تُبصِرون214 The messenger said, the human messengerقالَ رَبّى يَعلَمُ القَولَ فِى السَّماءِ وَالأَرضِ وَهُوَ السَّميعُ العَليمُ
Then the transgressors responded by saying ...in 215بَل قالوا أَضغٰثُ أَحلٰمٍ بَلِ افتَرىٰهُ بَل هُوَ شاعِرٌ فَليَأتِنا بِـٔايَةٍ كَما أُرسِلَ الأَوَّلونَ
Like I said I do not see any issue.
GOD bless you.
Peace.
