oldest fragments of Quran found

So you made the claim that the manuscript was tampered with to please the clergy based on 1 verse?
If you deliberately change words for other words in several occasions then you obviously have an agenda, particularly since I managed to localize one change and examine it and see its impact on a rendition. I have not had any more time to analyze anything else at the time being and I do not seek to spend more time on this matter here on now either. I have given out sufficient elaboration on this forum previously which have often been unheeded. Eventually there will be a full reinterpretation of Quran published by me after an estimated project time of about 6-7 years.
I basically nullified the interpretations that you have as amateurish "blabber" of people who only sought to fit a doctrine into its passages and did not even understand the literal meaning of the word allah. There are some people who see my point, but that group is small. It does not matter, they will be more.
My work right now is not nullifying Quran as you have it but I work on discovering its true interpretation instead. I see no meaning in correcting something which does not even convey the real point even 7% of the time.
Very well, please link me to your post and I'll check it out there.
I apologize for a surge of disinterest in complying with your wish. It would probably take some time to locate the post which has no value to you anyway.
Be safe

It would have been if it said that in one verse. If it said so in one verse there could be no doubt about later interpolations.
If it said so in one verse you would be telling us that the verse was a later addition. And then you would state that if it was truly a revelation given to Muhammad by Gabriel, they would both be mentioned many times throughout the Quran together.
Either way, we can do this forever. I'll wait for you to create a list of all serious differences between the San'aa manuscript and the modern Quran. I can tell you that the ones listed on that wikipedia link are very much minor differences.

Ok then.

This phenomenon of debate, God has revealed, God has not revealed, belief and disbelief, interesting to note how timeless it is, it keeps on going.
The period when everything is clear without any room for reasonable doubt, it would be all over. Then believing will not avail nor help.

I again refer you to http//rootsofislamtruehistory.com/subpages/Codicology_and_suspected_verses.htm
They are better explained there than I possibly can including the change to ar-r al-qudus (dropping the al to make it able to identify Gabriel with), the change to ?min ?inda Ll?hi? (adding of ?min ?inda Ll?hi? to add status of prophethood to the rasul if not divinity to the Quran), the adding of Q 4176, adding of 4171b, removal of a of verses between 171a and 172, adding of "Nar".
Read what EM Gallez writes about the change to ar-r al-qudus and its significance
It is immediately noticeable that this formulation, with its article ?al?, is the expression Christian Arabs have always use to refer to the Holy Spirit. Moreover, this formulation also was used by the Judeo-Nazarenes because it is biblical, even if they rejected the Christian faith; they simply gave it a different meaning. For them, ?Holy Spirit? was one way of expressing how God animates and supports His ?Messiah-Jesus? 19. This background helps us to understand the different possible ways of reading the fourth verse containing the expression r al-qudus, the highly crucial verse 102 from Sura Al-Nahl
? r al-qudus has brought it down from your Lord with the truth, in order to strengthen those who believe, and as guidance and good news (bu?ra) for the muslims (those who submit)? (Q 16102).
This verse alone is worth a complete study, as so much meaning is packed into it we find the word ?muslimn?, which was only used after the 8th century, to designate the instruments of the Arab Caliphate power structure, also known as the ?Muslims? 20. In the Koran, the word muslim simply takes upon the meaning of those subjecting to (as isl?m means submission). There is also the word ?bu?ra?, meaning Gospel to Aramaic and Arab Christians, according to the precise meaning attached to the word as found in the New Testament, where it refers to the teachings of the Apostles and other witnesses. Finally, we find the expression ar-rh al-qudus (with or without the article) in relation to something that came down from Heaven by God?s will in the form of a writing. However, the co-text is very controversial we read in verse 101 the charge of forgery, while verse 103 says
?A man assuredly (innam?) teaches him. The tongue of him they point to is foreign (a?jamyy), while this is Arabic, pure and clear? (Q 16103).
The discussion therefore focuses upon the fact that the language of the teacher is not Arabic, and not upon the fact that the the teacher is an angel rather than a man it is the false interpretation given to the adverb innam? (only instead of indeed, as we will see further) that suggests that some would believe in the intervention of an angel, while others object that it is but only a man.
What is for us of interest in verse 102 is its formula ar-rh al-qudus if it is to designate the angel Gabriel, we must accordingly delete the first article to prevent it from meaning ?the Holy Spirit? and mean instead ?the spirit of the Holy one? ? by which is meant ?an angel of God?. This change is radical it is linked to the idea that the angel Gabriel dictated the Koran to Muhammad. It can also be dated the idea in itself is posterior to AD 735, year around which John of Damascus simply wrote that Muhammad received the Koran in his sleep. Arguably, then, the case can be made that the scriptio superior or the last text from the manuscript of an??? (including its second scriptio inferior, namely the most recent) does postdate 735.

Peace All.
GOD has provided the answers in Qoran.
I have no doubt that Gabriel is consistently called the "Ruh" in Qoran, The witnesses will be brought on the day of Judgement and Gabriel ( the Ruh) will be there with the Angels
7838
The day will come when the Spirit( Gabriel) and the angels will stand in a row. None will speak except those permitted by the Most Gracious, and they will utter only what is right.7839
Such is the inevitable day. Whoever wills let him take refuge in his Lord.7840
We have sufficiently warned you about an imminent retribution. That is the day when everyone will examine what his hands have sent forth, and the disbeliever will say, "Oh, I wish I were dust."My take on itGabriel,or the "Ruh" will indeed confirm that he brought the Qoran down to the prophet,to warn about "this day""!!!
Like AW mentioned, it will be too late to believe?
GOD bless .
Peace. -
Good logic, please understand you are not making a big impression when you are using an injected understanding not present in the quranic text (between brackets), as proof of your understanding. Furthermore are you contesting that ar-r al-qudus was a known christian denominator for the Holy Spirt (not Gabriel)?

Peace runninglikezebras.
I keep asking people to study Qoran from cover to cover, from the first letter to the last,so they can at least do it justice and checking it out properly.
You keep saying that many are using" hadith" to believe Qoran when claiming they believe in Qoran Alone?
Well you believe in "hadith"( another version of men s words) according to your posts. You insert " Scientists/titles" for the authors and you believe them. What is the difference?
At least I give Qoran its "dues" and keep studying it .
Each to their choice.
GOD bless you.
Peace. -
That's the final messianist argument isn't it? When criticized, this is normal because good logic is of the only guided ones, Gods elect, chosen for the kingdom to come.
I'm pretty shocked you are willing to throw overboard rational thinking and scientific arguments to preserve the divinity of the Quran you know.

Hello,
It does not have anything to do with belief but you must realize yourself, to be 'such as Him'. This is what you must accomplish in this life.
Believing is easy and a lot of people say you are a disbeliever if you do not understand Quran and thus reject it, but having faith in a 'Higher Intelligence' would be sufficient, the rest is about who you are. I would also reject Quran unless I discovered its real words beneath an ocean of lies by the grace of God.
Be safe

Peace running likezebras.
No one is guaranteed anything. We must all strive to earn our salvation.
I am simply trying to stay loyal to the Lord. Checking all information,Scientific or not, is a job that we must do.
Do you think Science is free from "manipulations/fabrications and lies".especially when humans have certain motives?
Of course some proven Science and facts are useful and I am the first to acknowledge these.
I am also aware that a lot of people have their own agendas.
I am trying to search for the truth. But of course you will say everyone says that!I truly want to know the truth,but I shall do my own checking.
GOD bless you.

- From the Quranic perspective, Gabriel is RUHUL AMIN
0297 - Say, "Whoever is an enemy to Gabriel - IT IS HE WHO SENT DOWN THE QURAN UPON YOUR HEAART, by permission of ALLAH, confirming what was in between, support it and as guidance and good tidings for the believers."
Cross-referencing with 26193-194
Sent down by the Truthful Spirit
UPON YOUR HEART, that you may be of the warners,
- From the Quranic perspective, Mikaal is the RUHUL QUDDUS
0287 - And We gave to Moses the Book, and after him sent succeeding Messengers; and We gave Esa son of Mary the clear signs, and confirmed him with the Holy Spirit...
Cross-referencing with...
16102 - Say 'The Holy Spirit sent it down from thy Lord in truth, and to confirm those who believe, and to be a guidance and good tidings to those who surrender.'
Now, if you read the verse 101, you will notice that it mention verses that were substituted was sent down by the Holy Spirit. So from hear we safely conclude that Jibril, the Truthful Spirit, sent down those verses that was known by the other prophets while Mikaal, the Holy Spirit, sent down verses that are to be subsituted.

The oldest inferior scripts of the Sanaa psalimpsests do state ?ar-rh al-qudus?.

Furthermore, if you are claiming Quranic standards, you will have to admit 0297 nowhere mentions Muhammad. Only with hadith and tafsir indoctrination would the reader understand it as relating to Muhammad. Reading the verses preceding it, one can easily find out Moses is being referred to here (worship of the calf, ascension on the mount, etc). Similarily 287 does not mention Mikaal at all. This is complete conjecture, based on tafsir and hadith. Still you are claiming to be using a Quranic perspective. Next to this 287 explicitly mentions Moses and Jesus, nowhere does it mention Muhammad!
As far as I'm concerned this is a pretty good illustration how this text manipulation was intended. To make a divine revelation by Gabriel to Muhammad fit the Quranic text (which it originally did not state).
This post by Hizbullah shows how much hadith and tafsir so called "quranists" are still applying. Distorting words, transfer of identification (interchanging Moses, Jesus with Muhammad where they feel like it).
The challenge is still open show me a clear single verse in quran that states "Gabriel brought the message to Muhammad". If you can't, you'd better reanalyze your assumptions.

6836 What is with you? How do you judge?
6837 Or for you a Book wherein you study?
6838 Indeed for you is whatever you choose?
Look whos talking, btw, who the hell is Gallez, your prophet, mentor??? The above are the hadith of your prophet! Show me a clear message that this Quran was sent to the Prophets Musa or Esa?
Obviously you have no knowledge so let me tell you, this Quran was sent to the Last Prophet, Prophet Mani, who was called Muhammad by the CREATOR HIMSELF! The Prophets Musa and Esa was already DEAD AND GONE at the time this Quran was sent down.
I cannot deny the fact that Prophet Musa did received what was given to the Last Prophet...
3223 - And certainly, We gave Moses the Book; so do not be in doubt of receiving it; and We made it a guide for the Children of Israel.
The Quran is very clear in this and that is, what Musa received was the First edition while the Last Prophet received the same book but a 2nd Edition.
1587 - And Certainly, We have given you several of the second one and the Grand Quran.
3923 - ALLAH has sent down the best statement a Book RESEMBLING EACH OTHER, the Second One. The skins shiver therefrom of those who fear their LORD; then their skins and their hearts relax at the remembrance of ALLAH...
So its clear now, but off course, the Quran verses are nothing to you compare to what Gallez, your prophet says?
As for Jibbril and Mikaal, both are mentioned in the Quran 0298, since Jibbril is Ruhul Amin than the other obviously is Mikaal aka Ruhul Quddus .
So can you see now, I have shown you all from the Quran, no Hadith or the words of some stupid fool to substantiate my claims!

He is a scholar who discovered the text manipulation to "ar-rh al-qudus".

Kind of ironic; you asking me to provide you a clear message that the Book was given to Moses followed by quoting the verse that exactly states it. Excellent!
The Quran is very clear in this and that is, what Musa received was the First edition while the Last Prophet received the same book but a 2nd Edition.
Oh I see God sends second editions like publishers do... This is conjecture from your part. Any reference in the Quran to "the Book" is the Torah. Logic dictates it can't be Quran since it wasn't written down yet.
1587 - And Certainly, We have given you several of the second one and the Grand Quran.
This Quran is the judeonazarene lectionary. Not the Uthmanic Quran, which didn't exist yet. l-mathn / mathniya does not translate to second but oft-repeated. Sahih International And We have certainly given you, seven of the often repeated and the great Qur'an.
3923 - ALLAH has sent down the best statement a Book RESEMBLING EACH OTHER, the Second One. The skins shiver therefrom of those who fear their LORD; then their skins and their hearts relax at the remembrance of ALLAH...
Oft-repeated is not a synonym for "second". Your translation is erroneous, if not totally bogus. The Book is the Torah. It does not say "resembling each other" but "Allah has sent down the best statement a consistent Book wherein is reiteration. " (Sahih International)
So its clear now, but off course, the Quran verses are nothing to you compare to what Gallez, your prophet says?
Gallez is not a prophet, he's a scholar.
As for Jibbril and Mikaal, both are mentioned in the Quran 0298, since Jibbril is Ruhul Amin than the other obviously is Mikaal aka Ruhul Quddus .
So can you see now, I have shown you all from the Quran, no Hadith or the words of some mother f@#*&r to substantiate my claims!
Prime example of conjecture. You just fill in the blanks like you want to fill them in. Still admitting Quran does not contain one CLEAR verse saying Gabriel/Michael gave the book to Muhammad! Also watch your language.
-
On top of this, the idea that Jibbril is Ruhul Amin and Mikaal is Ruhul Quddus is totally unheared of in the judeo-christian tradition. This concept only exists in Hizbullahs mind.
When Quran states ""ar-rh al-qudus" it means Holy Spirit. When Quran states "Jibril" it means Jibril. Is this too complicated for you?

rotfl rotfl A good one..
2nd edition only on paperback from "Uthman Publishing Company", the sole and only true agent of God's book on this earth, which has gone bankrupt many centuries ago, thus it's not available on ebook format.. rotfl
And they say there will be no 3rd edition? rotflI'm waiting for someone to start a new religion with a conception of "Holy Software".
God, previously an author and a scribe now turned into a computer programmer..
His software is (obviously) holy, do not need an upgrade and do not contains any bugs and those who dare to submit a bug report must be put to death for blasphemy.. rotfl -
I did no such thing, he apparently modified his post after my reply. That's not my responsibility.
The Hebrew language phrase ruach ha-kodesh (Hebrew , "holy spirit" also transliterated rua ha-qodesh) is a term used in the Hebrew Bible (Tanakh) and Jewish writings to refer to the spirit of YHWH ( ה. It literally means "the spirit of holiness" or "the spirit of the holy place". The Hebrew terms rua qodshka, "thy holy spirit" ( ָ, and rua qodsh, "his holy spirit" ( ֹ also occur (when a possessive suffix is added the definite article is dropped). The "Holy Spirit" in Judaism generally refers to the divine aspect of prophecy and wisdom. It also refers to the divine force, quality, and influence of the Most High God, over the universe or over his creatures, in given contexts.
On the basis of narrations in certain Hadith some Muslims identify it with the angel Gabriel (Arabic Jibreel). => hizbullah is one of those
