    peace All,

    I found some of the commentary on the following site interesting

    http//amin-ahsan-islahi.org/?se=9
    http//amin-ahsan-islahi.org/?se=7
    http//amin-ahsan-islahi.org/?se=35

    I just happened to stumble across the site, which goes to show there must be loads of good analysis out there that we're unaware of.

    Perhaps this thread can serve to highlight such sites.

    An example of commentary

    Among other names, this is one of the names of the Day of Judgement. It means ?the pounding one? or the ?the rapping one?. The Arabic phrase ? ? (qar?a?l-bab), means ?he pounded or rapped at the door?. This name indicates a special feature of the Day of Judgement it will come as abruptly and as suddenly as an unexpected bang at the front door of a house at night which strikes panic among the dwellers inside.

    All information is correct to the best of my knowledge only and thus should not be taken as a fact. One should always seek knowledge and verify for themselves when possible: 17:36, 20:114, 35:28, 49:6, 58:11.

      Greetings Wakas,

      Thanks for these links?

      I like the website design; however, the content (status quo for Muslim sites) does not reflect much insight into the passages in question.

      Take for example their understanding of 24.35?

      http//amin-ahsan-islahi.org/?=12

      Unfortunately, Muslim?s are blinded from seeing that this is a blatant reference to the Biblical New Jerusalem?

      Few, if any, Muslims ever bother to actually read and compare their book of faith to its source material, the Holy Bible.

      If they did, then they would quickly understand that the Koran is nothing without the Holy Bible - which is required to correct and clarify the Koran in all manner of things?

      Thanks?

        Few, if any, Christians ever bother to actually read and compare their own books of faith to its source material, the Talmud.

        If they did, then they would quickly understand that the Koran is nothing without the Holy Bible - which is required to correct and clarify the Koran in all manner of things?

        If they did, then the Christians would quickly understand that their bibles are nothing without the Talmud - which they vehemently acknowledge the enhanced versions of conjectural materials in all manner of things.

        The Talmud and Bibles are NOT Torah and Gospel, but ahadiths unlike Quran.

        Refute your own book of faith as witnessed in

          The problem with your argument is that you think your standards of inquiry are the correct ones. There is no reason for this to be true. It is at best uncertain. To us our standards are true. Hence, suggesting a muslim check a bible is an irrational argument because we don't see it the source of anything. It is your book not ours! All we can see its your book and something that mostly rejected by your own.

          If they did, then they would quickly understand that the Koran is nothing without the Holy Bible - which is required to correct and clarify the Koran in all manner of things?

          We have a bunch of people saying something on similar lines about Hadith books, religious zealots try to justify Scripture is not sufficient on its own in order to empose their own doctrine. Hence, we see this for what it is, a baseless assertion. Nowhere in the Qur'an it tells you to use the bible, it is quite clear that you have your own book and we have ours.

          What do you expect we take a word of a christian on religious matters? You are not pragmatic are you?
