The Night of Decree is the 27th day of the 9th moon: Incontrovertible proof
-
Peace Pierre,
Ayman you are not a sincere person There are two forms of plural in Arabic Dual and "more than three".
If you deny this it is not even worth talking with you.
Singular = 1
Plural = 2 or more.
Ayman, do you see the little "s" starting from "2 days", it means it is a plural. This is why dual and "more than three" type of plural are found 30 times in Quran, Got that ? )
Either you are really stupid if you do not admit this, or really your ego is sooo big that you will deny simply for the sake of denying and try to save face (unfortunately I am afraid that it is your ego that makes you deny simple things like that ).It is not my problem that you ignore that in Arabic there is a difference between dual and plural and that plural is "3 or more", which renders everything that you just said nonsense. If being stupid means that unlike you I know that plural is "three or more" and not "more than three" then I would rather be stupid than be so incredibly smart like you. )
Why include the dual in your counts? The only reason is so that you can get to 30, which is not even a real month and no calendar in existence has months with 30 days. So you are falsifying counts to get to what is anyway a false imaginary month.
Anyways Ayman, it is an indisputable fact that there are 30 "days" in Quran, and you got burned. 30 "days" is the maximum number of "days" in the lunar calendar of 12 months decreed by God. It means more but I will keep it simple here.
As for the forms of "day" you have been told in a number of previous debates that there is a peculiar way of counting words in the Quran.
The reason why you deny it is that you refuse to see God's miracle of the Quran like 365 x "day".
The peculiar form of counting singular forms is.... singular generic forms without pronouns attached or else, simply the singular form.
When you open your mind to this then the miracle of 19 and many others like 365 "day" become a reality; they alll click together at the same time which proves their veracity. In other words it is miracle reserved for people who are sincere, on the other hand, insincere people with "closed minds" are forbidden from seeing the miracles. A veil separates them from the believers.This is false selective numerology counting to reach a preconceived count by hook or by crook. You arbitrarily included "this day" and the non generic form "in the day" and "to a day", etc. but exclude "that day" ("that" is not a pronoun). You also include the accusative but hypocritically excluded it in other counts such as that of "wahid".
How do I know Ramadan is the 9th month out of 12?
This was not my question. Everything you said is based on Muharam being month 1 in year 1. This is why you are evading to answer my real question. Here it is again
Now tell us how do you know month 1 since month 9 depends on it? From when do you ultimately start counting?
See if you can answer using your numerology crap.
Peace,
Ayman

Peace all,
I think what Pierre needs is a simple question. What ayman is trying to ask you, very consistent I might add, ;D what is the first month of the islamic calender based upon. History tells us the calender starts with the Hijra, the movement of the Prophet from Mecca to Medina. That's why ayman said it is man made. The date of the Hijra could not be taken as the starting point, when one is calculating the moon, the stars, the sun. It must be against God's creation. For example, the chinese calendar starting point is Winter. And they had perfected their calendar since then by using Winter as the starting point.
Now Ramadan is scorching heat, does the Hijra occurs during Summer but then again which month of Summer? Four seasons and three months to a season. How do you confirm the Hijra, by using the code 19, from within the Book of Truth, Pierre? hmm
I hope this is as simple as I can put it. ;D

I hope this is as simple as I can put it. ;DThank you for further clarifying the question that neither Pierre nor Mazhar can give a straight answer for.
If you read between the lines in Pierre's response, he seems to be implying that Umar only started the era but the order of the months in the Hijri calendar and Muharam has always been month 1 "since the creation of the heavens and the earth" (even before there were humans around to name it "Muharam". Of course this is complete nonsense for several reasons
-
Claiming that the god created the heavens and the earth on Muharam 1 before there was even humans around to name anything Muharam is not much different from the Jews who claim that the god completed the creation on a Friday or Sunnis who claim that the god created Adam on Friday. Pierre is exactly like the ignorant Jews and Sunnis who ignore that the week hasn't always been 7 days and this innovation started only about 2500 years ago with the Jews (long after the death of Moses and the revelation of the Torah). Similarly, the Hijri Months and their order hasn't always been around and this is an even more modern invention than the 7 day week.
-
There is absolutely no evidence of the months in the Hijri calendar prior to Umar. A couple of the months in the Hijri calendar were actually names of seasons used by the Arabs in their nomadic calendar that divided the year into 6 seasons. In this calendar, Rabii-Alawal was in spring and Rabii-Althani was in early fall.
-
Let's say for argument sake that the Hijri calendar existed before Umar's time (which it didn't) and Umar only decided the beginning of the new era. Still the same problem exists. Ultimately, some guy prior to Umar had to arbitrarily decide when Muharam 1 occurs and the order of the months and this is what really determines when Pierre and Mazhar's Ramadan occurs. So it is a 100% certain and indisputable fact that their so-called Ramadan is manmade arbitrary falsehood that has nothing to do with the god.
This is why they evade answering how they would find their Ramadan purely using the moon cycles if they wake up on a deserted island. This is because in reality their Ramadan is not based on the moon cycles but on arbitrary manmade falsehood. They know that on that day their falsehood will be completely lost from them.
Peace,
Ayman

Peace Ayman,
Agreed with all your arguments there. It seems they are so engrossed with their code 19 and the traditions (it is always there between their lines), they ignored the Truth even when Truth bites them in the eyes.
I did a little research on Google about seasons and the start of winter? And trying to compare the start of winter in China and Saudi Arabia, so that I could use the Chinese calendar and compare them with the Hijri. Roughly.
This is what I find
Winter starts between December 21st and 22nd in the Northern Hemisphere and between March 20th and 21st in the Southern Hemisphere. Meteorologically, it starts on December 1st and June 1st, respectively. According to the lunisolar calendar, it begins around November 7th.
http//answers.yourdictionary.com/science/units-of-measure/when-does-winter-start.html
Since China and Saudi Arabia are both in the northern hemisphere, basically their seasons start at the same time. Basically the Chinese calendar could be used to determine whether the just finished Ramadan is actually the 9th month. With a little research of the Chinese calendar, this is what I get
http//chinesecalendar.orados.com/english.aspx?d=2010-09-12
The calendar shows today
World
Year 2010
Month September (9th month)
Day 12thChinese
Year The Tiger
Month 8th Lunar month
Day 5th (15th Autumnal Equinox)Hijri
Year 1431
Month Syawal (10th month)
Day 2 (Yawm al-Ithnayn - 2nd day)The difference between the Chinese calendar month and the Hijri calendar month is almost 2 months. These are rough facts which shows the just finish fasting month called Ramadan, could not be the 9th month.
According to the Chinese calendar, the 9th month of this year is next month not last month. According to facts, the differences between the seasons in the northern hemisphere and southern hemisphere is only a day or two. That is between north and south. But a difference of two months in the same hemisphere?
Peace.

Selam
In my opinion what ever counting system we use as a calendar must be useful to us. For example, we will need this calendar to conduct our daily lives, plant our crops etc. We will need it to determine the seasons and also know the restricted periods in not hunting certain animals to perserve the population. As a result which ever system we use it will be man made. But that man made system will need to be in sink with natural occuring events, so it is easy for us to conduct our daily affairs. The question we must ask is the lunar calendar able to do this? In my opinion, no. It would be very hard for a farmer for example to follow it in knowing the seasons. I read this post which I found very interesting
"The number of months in the sight of Allah is twelve (in a year) - so ordained by Him the day He created the heavens and the earth...." (Q936).
"It is He Who made the sun to be a shining glory, and the moon to be a light of beauty, and measured out stages for it, that you might know the number of years and the count of time. Allah did not create this except in truth and righteousness. And He explains His signs in detail, for those who understand" (Q105).
With the above passages from the Quran, it is clear and confirmed by science that the moon orbits the Earth twelve times during the Earth orbits the sun in approximately 354 days. And mankind observing this phenomena has learned to count days and nights, by observing the moon and the sun, and to formulate a calender system either by lunar, or the solar system.
Either way, man has got a counting device to measure time in days, months and years.
The calender is very useful for mankind to schedule his activities, be it for social, business, agricultural, and since the creation of religion by man himself, it is a tool to mark "holy" days for his paganistic events and rituals.
The Hijrah, was setup for religious rituals purposes, and its inventor, decided to go lunar counting, as opposed to the Christian calender (Gregorian - named after Pope Gregory), which is solar based because this would set them apart from the Christians - to be different. Well, the decision to be different put them side-by-side with the Taoist, Bhuddist, and the Hindus, whom use the lunar system.
Fine, whichever method, solar, or lunar, there is nothing wrong in creating a calender for counting time, but the Hijrah was meant to be strictly followed for religious activities, e.g. prayers, fasting, pilgrimage etc., and this is where the fallacy lies.
As we know it, the Hijrah being lunar, has twelve months, and 29/30 days in a month, and therefore does not apply the 7days/week method as the Gregorian. The names of days correspond to the moon cycle, which is day 1,2,3 - 29/30. This is in fact, the same with all the other lunar calender system, which are being practiced by the Chinese, Indians, etc.
Now, the big religious question is, how did "Holy Friday" get into the Hijrah? There is no Friday in the lunar based Hijrah as there is no 7days/week system! Only the Gregorian has the 7days/week system and Friday is the 5th day of the 7 days/week.
It is very clear now that the holy Friday prayer (Jumaat) is following the Gregorian Friday, and the question is - Is there really a Friday prayer to start with? Nothing is mentioned in the Quran about this! I'm not going to delve into this, but the question is even if there is such a prayer, why is it scheduled on the Gregorian Friday? The answer is simple - they forgot about this when they concocted the Hijrah, and the choice of the lunar method does not allow for the 7days/method to be scientifically incorporated into the Hijrah (full stop)!
Ok, lets say they will argue that there is a day called Friday (5th day) in the Hijrah, then there is only one 5th day in a month, and so it would be a monthly prayer instead of weekly.
Again...ok...they will argue and say that there is a 7day/week system in the Hijrah, then how come it correspond to the Gregorian Friday all the time, whilst it is a fact that the Lunar Hijrah days/months/years never correspond to the Gregorian day/week/month/year. The Hijrah Friday would always fall on other Gregorian days and maybe on certain period it would correspond to the Gregorian Friday, but not every week!
Their fasting month of Ramadan attest to this clearly. Whilst they try hard every Hijrah year to be very accurate in proclaiming the start and end of the fast, they blindly (and unashamedly) remix the Gregorian Friday into the new month every year...if the first day of Ramadan falls on the Gregorian Friday... the first day of Ramadan begins on Friday...then, happily and conveniently - they pray...and fast, of course.
Now, as we look into the history of the Hijrah itself (according to Islamic Hijrah experts), briefly, the first day of the Hijrah correspond to the day Muhammad fled Mecca for Medina circa (mind you approximates only) 622 A.D. Since the date given is 'circa', there's no proof that that event took place on the first day of the new moon! Take note that the Hijrah was not conceptualized until 638 A.D. (approx. again), which means by simple mathematics the Hijrah was invented after 16 years in Medina.
As history has it, Muhammad remained for approximately 10 years in Mecca after the Quran was revealed to him. That means the Hijrah was only incorporated 26 years after Muhammad received the Quran.
The big religious question is - How did Muhammad and his followers perform all the rituals of prayers, fasting, and pilgrimage for 26 years before the Hijrah was invented. The only calender being used then, would be the Julian (now Gregorian), and it certainly seems odd that the so called 'Muslims' perform their rituals according to the Julian calender, as the Quran never make any reference to the Julian/Gregorian months of Jan-Dec, nor the days Mon-Sun ?
Since all the historical dates pertaining to Muhammad are 'circa' based, its difficult to determine if Muhammad was around to witness the implementation of the Hijrah, and whats more with all the events having conflicting 'circa' dates it turns any research on this matter into a mind boggling and futile enterprise. Whichever way one looks at it, whats apparent now is that the Hijrah was established after his demise, because his reign as the messenger supposedly only lasted 20 years!
However, one thing is sure, at least according to the Islamic historians and writers - the Hijrah was initiated by one of the companions, and not Muhammad himself, and that to me is the suggestion that he might not have been around.
In summation...when the tool that is used to schedule events, or rituals is inaccurate, and unreliable then the event/ritual that depends on it becomes questionable, or if it should ever take place? One could expect some explanations on this matter coming from them, but I can assure you it would be nothing more than some mathematical nonsense. It surely is something for the 'Muslims' to think about, and mind you this is year 2007, and they are still fumbling in their religion. Mathematically speaking, the Hijrah calendar, at best could only be labelled as 'Conjecture'.
The above verse (Q105) ends with "...for those who understand", obviously, these people don't understand!

Peace Tauhid,

I did a little research on Google about seasons and the start of winter? And trying to compare the start of winter in China and Saudi Arabia, so that I could use the Chinese calendar and compare them with the Hijri. Roughly.17.12. We have made the night and the day as two signs the sign of the night We have obscured, while the sign of the day we have made visible so that you may seek favors from your Lord, and so that you may know the number of years and the calculation, and We have explained all things in detail.
How can we determine the number of years using the ?night and the day?? The ONLY way to use the night and the day to determine the number of years is to count the interval between shortest/longest day and the longest/shortest night, in other words the interval between either the summer solstices or winter solstices. What people call "start" of winter or summer is actually in nature the winter and summer solstices. The fact that the year is the interval between solstices will always be true. Unlike any manmade calendar, even supposedly solar ones where for example, you have a year with 366 days every 4 years to adjust.
So the next question is which of the two solstices to start the count from? The meaning of "ramadan" as provided by Classical Arabic dictionaries clearly point to the summer solstice. You can see more discussions and details on this thread

Also, the following Article in Arabic

Salaam Ayman and all,
Peace Pierre,
It is not my problem that you ignore that in Arabic there is a difference between dual and plural and that plural is "3 or more", which renders everything that you just said nonsense. If being stupid means that unlike you I know that plural is "three or more" and not "more than three" then I would rather be stupid than be so incredibly smart like you.
Why include the dual in your counts? The only reason is so that you can get to 30, which is not even a real month and no calendar in existence has months with 30 days. So you are falsifying counts to get to what is anyway a false imaginary month.
This is false selective numerology counting to reach a preconceived count by hook or by crook. You arbitrarily included "this day" and the non generic form "in the day" and "to a day", etc. but exclude "that day" ("that" is not a pronoun). You also include the accusative but hypocritically excluded it in other counts such as that of "wahid".

In Arabic when we say "We are going to the park." is "We" plural or singular?
Now if Ayman and 1 friend (two people) go to the park are they going to say "I am going to the park" or "We are going to the park."
Now if Ayman claims that "we" is singular not plural, everyone will agree he is a liar.
For the same reason in Arabic there is a plural for two (dual) and for three or more entities Two types of plural.
If Ayman does not admit that, he is a liar (and he doesn't because of his big ego, and because it would force him to admit that Quran is mathematically structured). For this reason the plural "days" occurs 30 times in Quran, taking into account both Arabic plural forms.
Ayman lives in denial that the Quran is a mathematically structured book (365 x "day", 30 x "days", 12 x "month".
How blind can people be in the face of such obvious signs ?! nope30 days is the maximum number of days in a lunar month. Every sincere person knows a lunar month has either 29 or 30 days. If the count for "days" in Quran was 29, then he would object some lunar months have 30 days. What kind of game are you playing Ayman ? You are only fooling yourself and people who are, like you, in complete denial.
Peace.

30 x 12 is 360, not 365
The moon does its thing every 27. something days, not 29 and not 30, so there can sometimes be 13 new moons in a solar year of 365 days
6619 you need to choose 1 way and stick to it as your arguments are not taking account of any FACTS
In arabic there is DUAL (2) and PLURAL (3+)
a dual ending would be alif nun, a plural ending would be alif taa or waw nun depending on gender, so your 'we are going to the park' you would see the change in the verb 'to go' depending on the gender of those going and not in the 'we' part.

Peace Pierre and Mazhar,

For the same reason in Arabic there is a plural for two (dual) and for three or more entities Two types of plural.If you say "you" are going to the park in English is "you" plural or singular? In English there is no difference only in the second person. This doesn't mean that there is no difference in general between singular and plural in English. Same thing in the Arabic only in the first person there is no difference between dual and plural. This doesn't mean that there is no difference in general between dual and plural in Arabic. When it comes to "ayam" and "yawmayn" the first person doesn't even arise and they are definitely different.
The ONLY reason you add the dual is to force the count to come to your imaginary 30 day month. Had the plural count been already 30 then you would have been arguing the exact opposite if I asked you why you didn't include the dual.
You are also unable to address the fact that the count of the singluar form "day" is never 365, as I mentioned previously.
If Ayman does not admit that, he is a liar (and he doesn't because of his big ego, and because it would force him to admit that Quran is mathematically structured). For this reason the plural "days" occurs 30 times in Quran, taking into account both Arabic plural forms.

How blind can people be in the face of such obvious signs ?! nopeAm I "blind" because I don't want to believe you when you say that 365 is 30 x 12 !?? At least the blind can multiply.
30 days is the maximum number of days in a lunar month. Every sincere person knows a lunar month has either 29 or 30 days. If the count for "days" in Quran was 29, then he would object some lunar months have 30 days. What kind of game are you playing Ayman ? You are only fooling yourself and people who are, like you, in complete denial.
Maybe the god is fooling you when he didn't make the lunar cycles 30 days. Do you think that the god is inaccurate and it would have been hard for him to make it 30 days?? You think that your nonsensical code and haphazard selective counting of words is more accurate than the god's system?
This is why neither you or Mazhar will ever be able to answer my questions
How do you know month 1 since month 9 depends on it? From when do you ultimately start counting?
If you wake up from a coma on a deserted island how would you be able to find your Ramadan based on your Code 19 and/or the lunar and/or solar cycles?
You and Mazhar keep evading as usual, because you are both nothing more than a couple of clueless guys parading their ignorance on a public forum. What benefits people stays and what doesn't benefit them is swept away. Had you been able to answer those two questions, then you would be the heros of Sunnis and 19ers.
Peace,

No Its not a foolish question, its a very valid question which you cannot answer.
The calendar at the time of Muhammed is not the calendar Islam goes by today, so very rightly one must ask when was the day 1 month 1 calculated from. Quran is not dependant on any of our calendars or months but on the system of Allah, so how would you know ramadan if you had no calendar and no watch? If you cannot answer it then you are saying that ramadan IS dependant on a calendar that is man made, which is how it is worked out now, not how Allah worked it out.

Answer to the nonsense questions were provided in the ?Hot/"ramadan" Answer? thread including a challenge which your (and WayFinder?s) master Ayman refused to accept. Thus exposing the falsehood and fakeness. The ?Hot Ramadan? article has no head or tail. It is absolutely the best example of ?no no?. It is the worst known article in the history of mankind. And who else would follow it other than you and WayFinder?
