    Peace Ahmed

    also the verse never said that Al Quran is the Tafsil of Al Kitab, this is a clear cut mistake, the verse said "Tafsil Al Kitab La raib Fihi", i.e. the explanation of the Kitab is La raib fihi

    The la raib fihi does not change my point at all.
    Sorry, I don?t see that.
    The whole verse speaks about hadha-l-qur'?nu. Every statement here is about it, including the description as tafS?l al kit?b la raib fihi.
    Again, please let the words stand as they are.

    Peace Leyla

    The arabic words stand clear as light, the verse never said that the Quran is a tafsil to anything in this verse, the verse said that Tafsil Al Kitab is going to happen 100%, that is what it was said and the same sentnce was repeated zillions of times in the Quran.

    Not going to buy your wrong explanation, sorry

    Al Kitab does not mean the one book, there was no mention of any one book in the Quran

    Al Kitab means The Book

    Yes, but a specific one. That?s why I added 'one'. Only to stress that.
    It is a specific one, not any of an uncertain number.

    Then it makes no sense as the verse says that the explanantin of that book is La Raiba fihi, so I'm sot really sure why Allah wants to explain something to us that we don't have neither we will be held accountable against it?, it must mean the Quran 100%

    Let me ask you
    If I would say 'al bayt' would you say that I am talking about any house or about a specific house that I have in my mind ??????

    Logically speaking it means any house, unless you say My house, Allah never said my book in the verse

    if that book has a name like the Quran then we will know which book it is referred to but because it is only referred to as The book without a name , it can be any book out of many that Allah have

    Sorry, that?s too much human assumption for my taste. )
    I can not deduce this knowledge of yours from any verse of the qur'?n.

    what I said will make sense to my child

    Sorry, Allah delibertly confuses some verses from the Quran as a test for the believers and the unbelievers as per 37

    By the way the verse talks about al kit?b, not about al qur'?n.
    And it even stresses my point.
    Why?

    the Quran was also referred to as kitab in many locations, therefore this verse is mutashabihat and no one will ever know what book in this verse except Allah, I will just take it as the Quran because it was said as such about the Quran in many locations

    Because it mentions umm ul kit?b.
    And what do we know about umm ul kit?b?

    I only need to know about one book named Al Quran, you want to speculate about the books Allah may have, go for it, i'm out of this unreasonable discussion

    E.g. 43/3-44
    tells us that umm ul kit?b is directly with All?h and also that al qur'?n is within umm ul k?t?b.

    Nice try, the Umaa Al Kitab mentioned in this verse in another Kitab Allah has , that is why it says "indana"

    But what is funny that you want to link this Umma Al Kkitab here with the one in 37, very funny indeed, it only shows your lack of Arabic, may Allah help you

    So, umm ul kit?b is not a part of al qur'?n (as your reading of 3/7 would say) but instead al qur'?n is within umm ul kit?b.
    So, al kit?b in 3/7 can not be al qur'?n.

    Umma Al kitab is nothing but a metaphor that means the mother of the book, and in every context this metaphor will express different meaning

    In 37 it mean those muhkamat verses are the mother of the book, i.e. the foundation of the book

    Try harder please

    I can show you from the Quran that The Kitab word is referring to many other books

    Really? Are you talking about verses about some book (kit?b) or a specific book, the book (al kit?b).
    Please show me a verse that clearly says that al kit?b refers to any earthly book without ambiguity. I would be thankful for that.

    I'm talking about all verses with the word Kitab or Al Kitab is mentioned

    I will show you verses that Al Kitab was referring to the Quran explicitly more than once

    Peace, but I'm not sure why the word "again"?

    Because I already greeted you with peace in the beginning. So, this 'peace' was a second 'peace'. I said 'peace' a second time, I said it again.

    And again peace,

    Leyla

    ok excuse my ignorcane

    Regards

          Hello Tay

          Sorry mate for the mix up with Taj again, Can you please give me the benefit of the doubt because the key ?Y? is diagonally next to the key ?J??, just kiddin bro

          Verse 37 is very important verse in the Quran, without it, many would have found some unexplainable confusion in the Quran, exactly like the Bible, but the Bible does not have a verse like 37 indeed. It seems the Author of the Quran was fully aware of all possibilities to include a verse like 37 in the Quran, let me walk you through it bit by bit bro

          ?He it is Who has sent down to thee the Book In it are verses basic or fundamental (of established meaning); they are the foundation of the Book others are allegorical. But those in whose hearts is perversity follow the part thereof that is allegorical, seeking discord, and searching for its meanings, but no one knows its hidden meanings except Allah. And those who are firmly grounded in knowledge say ?We believe in the Book; the whole of it is from our Lord? and none will grasp the Message except men of understanding.?

          (7)

          -> ? ?, ? He it is Who has sent down to thee the Book?, ?The Quran? is referred to as ?Al Kitab?, i.e. Al Kitab in verse 37 means 100% ?Al Quran?, i.e. Al Quran was sent down to Mohammad by Allah.

          -> ? ?, ? In it are verses basic or fundamental (of established meaning); they are the foundation of the Book?, another clear sentence, Allah is saying to Mohammad and anyone who will read the Quran for that matter, in this book there is verses basics or fundamental of established meaning, 37 must be one of those as we will see while walking through it, some thought that 37 is a Mutashabihat verse, I even thought the same previously, but I quickly managed to understand that 37 can?t be Mutashabihat, because it is actually telling us the fact that there is Mutashabihat verses and why they were included in the Quran. Humans may expect that a book of guidance should be as clear as it can gets, which I agree, however let?s not forget that the Quran is also used to test everyone, i.e. it is a guidance (Muhkamat) and a test (Mutashabihat) at the same time, this is an awesome planning by the Al Mighty Allah, we read, in the Quran there will be Muhkamat verses, we didn?t read that All the Quran will be Muhkamat verses, those Muhkamat verses were also described as Umma Al Kitab, i.e. the foundation of the book, therefore the context suggest to the believers that the Muhkamat are the ones that they should care about, what about the rest of the Quran then?

          -> ? ?, ? others are allegorical?, here is the rest of the Quran, the other portion of the Quran verses are Mutashabihat, i.e. allegorical, i.e. hard to understand, i.e. confusing, this is not a coincidence, it is part of the plan as Allah has just told us that He included those allegorical verses in the Quran, now it is about time to ask why He did that?, we don?t need to look any where, we only need to continue reading the verse.

          -> ? ?, ? But those in whose hearts is perversity follow the part thereof that is allegorical, seeking discord, and searching for its meanings,?, the mighty plan objective is revealed, these deliberately inserted allegorical verses are there to expose those in whose hearts is perversity (believers or not, it applies to both), because those in whose hearts is perversity follow the part thereof that is allegorical, seeking discord, and searching for its hidden meanings, There is a very important hint in here, those seeking discord, in which community they are seeking that discord?, it has to be the believers community, therefore we have a double test in hand, a test for the unbelievers to see if they will seek discord by speculating the different meanings of those Mutashabihat verses, and another test for the believers to expose who will follow that discord, it can also be considered a test to the unbelievers who don?t search for the meanings of these verses neither seek discord between the believers, it will be a test for them exactly like the believers to see if they will follow that discord or not. This is awesome planning, it may sound not fair at the first glance, but if we consider the following, I guess it has to be fair

          In this life, this is how a tester creates a test, he/she includes in the test a bit of tricky questions, he/she never tell us what sort of tricks they will include though, and yet the process is fair and square to all, in the case of this life test, The Tester ?Allah? has told us in advance what the trick is ?37?, THIS IS FAIRNESS AT ITS MAX, WHAT IS STRICKING IS, MANY STILL LISTEN TO THAT DISCORD THEN FOLLOW IT AS WE SEE ON THIS WEB SITE AND MANY OTHER WEB SITES

          -> ? ?, ? but no one knows its hidden meanings except Allah?, here is the denial that NO ONE WILL KNOW THE MEANING EXCEPT ALLAH, some people who try to twist the meaning of this crystal clear verse by saying there is a ?Waw? after ?Allah? which means ?And?, i.e. what will follow the Waw should share the action with Allah, the action here is knowing the meaning of those Mutashabihat verses, this is 100% wrong as I will prove ?LOGICALLY SPEAKING? later, but we must take note that this bit also started with a Waw, this does not mean it is sharing what was before it, this is clear from the context before it, the Waw was translated ?But? however ?Waw? means ?And?, it is also common knowledge to start a new sentence with a Waw, EXACTLY AS THIS SENTENCE AND THE ONE AFFTER IT AND THE ONE AFTER THE ONE AFTER IT as we will see next.

          -> ? ?, ? And those who are firmly grounded in knowledge say ?We believe in the Book; the whole of it is from our Lord??, here is a new sentence started with a Waw, and clearly means that the ones with knowledge will believe in both Muhkamat and Mutashabihat verses as BOTH FROM OUR GOD, WHY THEY SAY THAT, IF THEY MANAGED TO UNDERSTAND THE TRUE MEANINGS OF THESE MUTSHABIHAT VERSES?, the Mutashabihat should be Muhkamat for them, yet they referred to them as BOTH, see, this is the logical refute to those who claim the people with knowledge will also crack these Mutashabihat verses and know its true meanings, I guess they are mixed up in what ?Rasikhoon fi Alilm? means, I think they might be thinking that it is science, but quite the contrary the Ilm in the verse means ?knowing Allah?, nothing more as science doesn?t fit in the description of the people with knowledge, because we can see an illiterate human who knows Allah better than many educated ones.

          -> ? ?, ? and none will grasp the Message except men of understanding.?, this bit started again with a Waw, as an indication of a new sentence, and it can be understood as being part of what the people with knowledge said or just another message from Allah, this mix up can?t make the verse Mutashabihat as in either cases ?Allah or Al Rasikhoon fi Alilm? who is saying it, the message is clear that ? and none will grasp the Message except men of understanding.?

          Clear from the above that Allah deliberately inserted Mutashabihat verses to test all of us, some will try to search for its meanings seeking discord or just for the sake of searching for its meaning as if they are smart, others may listen to that discord and flaw their beli ve but the true subnitters in Allah will just take it for granted as from Allah without searching into its Mutashabihat meanings

          Peace be with you

            Peace Ahmed,

            Thanks for your thoughful reply.
            I agree with most of your analysis, except 2 points
            1- This ayah cannot be an indicator that parts of the Qur'an are confusing, as that would contradict the many ayat that explain how the Qur'an is clearly explained, easy to understand, etc.
            2- If I accept your understanding that the waw does not connect "no one knows its hidden meanings except Allah" to "And those who are firmly grounded", then this will contradict 1736, which tells us to veify information, to not accept anything blindly.

            Now, that would really be confusing. In effect, what you're saying is that even though the Qur'an tells us it is clear and easy to understand, Allah authored ayat that are impossible to understand. And even though the Qur'an states that we should verify information, Allah authored ayat that should be accepted blindly.

            It doesn't quite fit, bro.

            Peace,

              Ahmed Im not sure who do you mean by We?, my statement was a general statement regarding those making a fuss of the Kitab and the Quran while the matter is clear in the Quran. Which is also a Kitab, some like to call it the reading though LOL, there are many Kitabs mentioned in the Quran other than the Quran, so what?, we are only accountable to the Quran

              Many kitabs mentioned? Like what ? Al-quraan mentions itself as 'kitaab' and mentions 'al-kitaab'. That's it.

              Well, we need first to think what is between Allah hands?, we should think not as the Quran in 1037 never mentioned what that thing is, you assumed it is another book in His hands, and I will only take it as a reasonable assumption but not a definite case

              So you think the 'hi' as Allah ? What's your reason for thinking so?

              Now the word Kitab in the verse is actually referring to the Quran, i.e. Allah is telling us the explanation of the Quran The Kitab was definite to happen by Him

              All the arabic in the world won't help if you don't have a basic grasp of logic. How can al-quraan BE al-kitaab if al-quraan is TAFSEELUL kitaab?

              well, I believe it means the Quran and as you say that Allah is telling us the fact that He left nothing that we need to know to pass this test.

              So in al-quraan, you have National Geographic as well? Why don't you read 6/38 and see the context.

              Yeh, that kitab in the verse is not the Quran, it can also mean any other book that this Ifrit managed to study and know secrets from it, regardless of that, I really careless what kitab is it, but I know it is not the Quran for sure and this is what matters to me

              You don't care about the lesson Allah gave you? Oh , I forgot, you think it's history. Allah sent us a 'hudan linnaas' but only for historians and arguing with Christians. Well done.

              By the way, its not kitaab in 27/40, its AL-KITAAB. The individual had knowledge of AL-KITAAB.

              I can show you from the Quran that The Kitab word is referring to many other books

              Just as you can show us how you arrived as your salaat conclusion, no doubt. When you 'have time'.

              He it is Who has sent down to thee the Book, The Quran is referred to as Al Kitab, i.e. Al Kitab in verse 37 means 100% Al Quran, i.e. Al Quran was sent down to Mohammad by Allah.

              Funnily, here it means 'al-kitaab' whereas it could mean 'many books'. This is proof of how a non-quranic understanding will be full of contraditions.

              Here's a passage to get you going

              That was the reasoning about Us, which We gave to ABRAHAM (to use) against his people We raise whom We will, degree after degree for thy Lord is full of wisdom and knowledge.We gave him ISAAC and JACOB all (three) guided and before him, We guided NOAH, and among his progeny, DAVID, SOLOMON, JOB, JOSEPH, MOSES, and AARON thus do We reward those who do good. And ZAKARIYA and JOHN, and JESUS and Elias all in the ranks of the righteousAnd ISMAIL and ELISHA, and JONAS, and LOT and to all We gave favour above the nations and to their fathers, and progeny and brethren We chose them, and we guided them to a straight way.This is the guidance of God He giveth that guidance to whom He pleaseth, of His worshippers. If they were to join other gods with Him, all that they did would be vain for them . This is the guidance of God He giveth that guidance to whom He pleaseth, of His worshippers. If they were to join other gods with Him, all that they did would be vain for them. These were the men to whom We gave AL-KITAAB., and authority, and prophethood if these (their descendants) reject them, Behold! We shall entrust their charge to a new people who reject them not.

              All these guys are mentioned and Allah says He gave them AL-KITAAB. Not many kitaabs. Did you miss this 500% in your 20 years of reading al-quraan, Ahmed?

                1- This ayah cannot be an indicator that parts of the Qur'an are confusing, as that would contradict the many ayat that explain how the Qur'an is clearly explained, easy to understand, etc.

                it does not contradict any, because all the Muhkamat are fully detailed and are the ones that we should uphold confidently, the other Mutashabihat "confusing ones", we are only required to believe in it as from Allah

                The fact of the matter that 37 is telling us about the Mutshabihat verses and its objective, makes the Mutshabihat clear to us that was put there for a purpose and this means very muhkam to me

                2- If I accept your understanding that the waw does not connect "no one knows its hidden meanings except Allah" to "And those who are firmly grounded", then this will contradict 1736, which tells us to veify information, to not accept anything blindly.

                it does because you also have the wrong undersding for 1736, that wrong understanding is promoted here by a few ignorants of the Arabic language

                1737, clearly sayd "DON'T Argue (stand/stop) in matters where you lack knowledge beacuse we are responsible for all our senses and we must give account in how we deployed our senses

                no contradiction whatsoever

                Now, that would really be confusing. In effect, what you're saying is that even though the Qur'an tells us it is clear and easy to understand, Allah authored ayat that are impossible to understand.

                it is not me who said that, it is the clear and muhkam arabic verse 37

                And even though the Qur'an states that we should verify information, Allah authored ayat that should be accepted blindly.

                yep, and just for argument sake and assuming that 1736 meaning is the wrong one as you understand it, then when I try to verify the mushabihat verses and find out that it has many meanings beyond doubts then I have to follow 37 and not to chase which one is the right meaning out of many "I assumed that all different meanings logically fit"

                It doesn't quite fit, bro.

                your understanding to 1736 is the one that doesn't quite fit, I can elaborate on that if you wish

                Peace,

                  Ahmed I?m not sure who do you mean by ?We??, my statement was a general statement regarding those making a fuss of the Kitab and the Quran while the matter is clear in the Quran. Which is also a Kitab, some like to call it the reading though LOL, there are many Kitabs mentioned in the Quran other than the Quran, so what?, we are only accountable to the Quran

                  Many kitabs mentioned? Like what ? Al-quraan mentions itself as 'kitaab' and mentions 'al-kitaab'. That's it.

                  try to search for the word Kitab and Al Kitab and you will see than many books were mentioned

                  Well, we need first to think what is ? between Allah hands??, we should think not as the Quran in 1037 never mentioned what that thing is, you assumed it is another book in His hands, and I will only take it as a reasonable assumption but not a definite case

                  So you think the 'hi' as Allah ? What's your reason for thinking so?

                  what a dumb question, firstly you assumen that I'm thinking then you are asking me why I'm thinking this way? lol

                  your question is invalid body

                  next

                  Now the word Kitab in the verse is actually referring to the Quran, i.e. Allah is telling us the explanation of the Quran ?The Kitab? was definite to happen by Him

                  Haha what a laugh

                  Al Quran is tafsil Al Kitab, where you got this from first? can you direct to me to a verse?

                  well, I believe it means the Quran and as you say that Allah is telling us the fact that He left nothing that we need to know to pass this test.

                  So in al-quraan, you have National Geographic as well?

                  Haha, another dumb comment

                  next

                  Why don't you read 6/38 and see the context.

                  why don't you walk us through it instead opf just putting the verse number, I'm sure you do that to avoide being exposed that your understanding to most Quran verses are flawed

                  please do and walk us through the Quran verses to enlighten us

                  Yeh, that kitab in the verse is not the Quran, it can also mean any other book that this Ifrit managed to study and know secrets from it, regardless of that, I really careless what kitab is it, but I know it is not the Quran for sure and this is what matters to me

                  You don't care about the lesson Allah gave you?

                  and what lesson that is?, the Quran is full of lessons, you are one hell of a confuser, I guess you are the one that was born without logic in the head

                  Oh , I forgot, you think it's history.

                  sure many things in the Quran are history

                  Allah sent us a 'hudan linnaas' but only for historians and arguing with Christians. Well done.

                  I can see very well following that Huda, lol

                  By the way, its not kitaab in 27/40, its AL-KITAAB. The individual had knowledge of AL-KITAAB.

                  I donlt acceot you sneaky short comments on any Quran verse, you must bring the verse here and walk me through it if you want me to dicuss the Quran with ya, other than that any Quran comment by you will be ignored

                  Next

                  I can show you from the Quran that The Kitab word is referring to many other books

                  Just as you can show us how you arrived as your salaat conclusion, no doubt. When you 'have time'.

                  first of all, I don't know why you don't get it, I need not to show anything to anyone, I onnly liase with the ones I respect and to answer their questions, all the rest of humans in the world will be ignored, very simple rule in my Book

                  Next

                  He it is Who has sent down to thee the Book?, ?The Quran? is referred to as ?Al Kitab?, i.e. Al Kitab in verse 37 means 100% ?Al Quran?, i.e. Al Quran was sent down to Mohammad by Allah.

                  Funnily, here it means 'al-kitaab' whereas it could mean 'many books'. This is proof of how a non-quranic understanding will be full of contraditions.

                  you suffer from a very law IQ Mister Q, I concuded this already, Al Kitab was mentioned numerous times in the Quran and it referred to many other books, but I will only prove that to the others whom are identified in my book to liase civily with but only iof they raise the Question with me

                  Here's a passage to get you going

                  That was the reasoning about Us, which We gave to ABRAHAM (to use) against his people We raise whom We will, degree after degree for thy Lord is full of wisdom and knowledge.We gave him ISAAC and JACOB all (three) guided and before him, We guided NOAH, and among his progeny, DAVID, SOLOMON, JOB, JOSEPH, MOSES, and AARON thus do We reward those who do good. And ZAKARIYA and JOHN, and JESUS and Elias all in the ranks of the righteousAnd ISMAIL and ELISHA, and JONAS, and LOT and to all We gave favour above the nations and to their fathers, and progeny and brethren We chose them, and we guided them to a straight way.This is the guidance of God He giveth that guidance to whom He pleaseth, of His worshippers. If they were to join other gods with Him, all that they did would be vain for them . This is the guidance of God He giveth that guidance to whom He pleaseth, of His worshippers. If they were to join other gods with Him, all that they did would be vain for them. These were the men to whom We gave AL-KITAAB., and authority, and prophethood if these (their descendants) reject them, Behold! We shall entrust their charge to a new people who reject them not.

                  All these guys are mentioned and Allah says He gave them AL-KITAAB. Not many kitaabs. Did you miss this 500% in your 20 years of reading al-quraan, Ahmed?

                  Haha, what an ignorance, it was mentioned singualr as a single book for each, NOT the same book for all, you are so funny

                  peace

                    Peace Ahmed,

                    You stated

                    it does not contradict any, because all the Muhkamat are fully detailed and are the ones that we should uphold confidently, the other Mutashabihat "confusing ones", we are only required to believe in it as from Allah

                    I'm sorry, but this makes zero sense bro. To believe in something that you call "confusing" as part of Allah's guidance does not serve it's purpose as guidance. How, exactly, would you be guided by something which you don't understand?

                    1737, clearly sayd "DON'T Argue (stand/stop) in matters where you lack knowledge beacuse we are responsible for all our senses and we must give account in how we deployed our senses

                    I didn't get that from 1737. Perhaps you meant 1736? If that's the case, then please break down the translation for us, as it seems you stand alone in your understanding...

                    Transliteration Wala taqfu ma laysa laka bihi AAilmun inna alssamAAa waalbasara waalfu-ada kullu ola-ika kana AAanhu mas-oolan
                    Literal And do not follow the tracks/accuse of evil deeds what knowledge is not for you with it (you have no knowledge of)
                    Free-Minds And do not uphold what you have no knowledge of
                    Rashad Khalifa You shall not accept any information, unless you verify it for yourself
                    Yusuf Ali And pursue not that of which thou hast no knowledge
                    Shakir And follow not that of which you have not the knowledge;
                    Pickthal (O man), follow not that whereof thou hast no knowledge. Lo! the hearing and the sight and the heart - of each of these it will be asked.
                    Arberry And pursue not that thou hast no knowledge of
                    Hilali/Khan And follow not (O man i.e., say not, or do not or witness not, etc.) that of which you have no knowledge
                    Malik You shall not follow anyone blindly in those matters of which you have no knowledge.
                    QXP And you shall not follow blindly any information of which you have no direct knowledge.
                    Palmer And do not pursue that of which thou hast no knowledge
                    Rodwell And follow not that of which thou hast no knowledge

                    Now, that would really be confusing. In effect, what you're saying is that even though the Qur'an tells us it is clear and easy to understand, Allah authored ayat that are impossible to understand.

                    it is not me who said that, it is the clear and muhkam arabic verse 37

                    No, bro, it is YOUR understanding of the verse, which, in this case, is not consistent with the rest of the Qur'an.

                    yep, and just for argument sake and assuming that 1736 meaning is the wrong one as you understand it, then when I try to verify the mushabihat verses and find out that it has many meanings beyond doubts then I have to follow 37 and not to chase which one is the right meaning out of many "I assumed that all different meanings logically fit"

                    See, the problem with this argument is that you assume every ayah must have only ONE meaning, and that if it has more than one meaning, then it is somehow invalid. This is your subjective view, and you are surely entitled to it. But realize that it is not universal. Your view is not perfect, nor is your judgement infallible.

                    An ayah having more than one meaning, in my opinion, only further amplifies the potency of the words and their author. Who else but Allah can author ayat that have multiple truths attached to many words?

                    your understanding to 1736 is the one that doesn't quite fit, I can elaborate on that if you wish

                    Please do, as it's not just my understanding but that of every single Qur'an translator.

                    Peace,
                    Tay

                      Peace Tay

                      I called it confusing, but did I called it confusing to ME?, NO I DID NOT

                      I called it confusing seeing how the many different humans working hard to make up different meanings and amazingly all the meanings fits and some contradict each other, therefore it is confusing to the general audience not to me

                      To me I saw all this happening and when comparing it to 37, all made sense to me and I?m not confused any more, therefore I submitted to Allah and believed in these verse AS BEEN SENT BY ALLAH, I never said I believe in a specific meaning to those verse, for example 43 is a mutashabihat verse and I can elaborate on that

                      Therefore what I believe in is the fact that those are mutashabihat verses deliberately inserted in the Quran by Allah as per 37 and 37 has given me an example of what I should do as the people with knowledge did, by not chasing the meaning or believing in (concluding) a specific meaning and just believing that it was sent by Allah to test the ones whose hearts have perversity

                      1737, clearly sayd "DON'T Argue (stand/stop) in matters where you lack knowledge beacuse we are responsible for all our senses and we must give account in how we deployed our senses

                      I discussed this in great details before, I will try to find the comment again and post it here

                      Now, that would really be confusing. In effect, what you're saying is that even though the Qur'an tells us it is clear and easy to understand, Allah authored ayat that are impossible to understand.

                      No, bro, it is YOUR understanding of the verse, which, in this case, is not consistent with the rest of the Qur'an.

                      oh yeh, and it is the understanding of most well known and solid Muslims, like Omar, Abu Bakr and hundreds of scholars came after them

                      well let me through all their understanding into the rubbish bin, I really careless how they saw it, IT IS THE CLEAR ARABIC WORDS that I walked you through it sentence by sentence, ironically you didn?t show us what is your understanding to 37

                      yep, and just for argument sake and assuming that 1736 meaning is the wrong one as you understand it, then when I try to verify the mushabihat verses and find out that it has many meanings beyond doubts then I have to follow 37 and not to chase which one is the right meaning out of many "I assumed that all different meanings logically fit"

                      See, the problem with this argument is that you assume every ayah must have only ONE meaning,

                      of course the muhkamat have one meaning (the majority), but the mutashabihat have more than one meaning (the minority)

                      now if most of the verses of the Quran have more than one meaning as you claim, then THIS IS A DAMN CONTRADICTIION TO YOUR CLAIM THAT THE QURAN IS EASY AND FULLY DETAILED

                      and that if it has more than one meaning, then it is somehow invalid.

                      it is not invalid, it will just destroy your claim that the quran is fully detailed and easy to understand, also it will divide the people not to unite them

                      your argument has - 100 sense, I meant (minus 100)

                      This is your subjective view, and you are surely entitled to it. But realize that it is not universal. Your view is not perfect, nor is your judgement infallible.

                      of course my judgement is not infallible, but I?m glad that my judgment here that is based on the clear Arabic words that I walked you through it is the same judgment as the big guns in Islam, like Mohammad the prophet for example, Mohammad actually discussed 37 a lot in many history records, would you like to see the history records by Mohammad?

                      An ayah having more than one meaning, in my opinion, only further amplifies the potency of the words and their author. Who else but Allah can author ayat that have multiple truths attached to many words?

                      of course I accept that argument, however not the case with mutashabihat of the many understandings are contradictory, also because Allah has told us that the Quran will have such mutashabihat verses, then some verses must fall into this category

                      the other ones you are talking about that have different meanings standings generations, are very muhkamat verse

                      your understanding to 1736 is the one that doesn't quite fit, I can elaborate on that if you wish

                      Please do, as it's not just my understanding but that of every single Qur'an translator.

                      Peace,
                      Tay

                      Ok as I told you earlier it was discussed in details but I have to find the comment and bring it in here

                        try to search for the word Kitab and Al Kitab and you will see than many books were mentioned

                        There are no such verses. The reason you're asking me for verses is because you can't produce any evidence as usual.

                        what a dumb question, firstly you assumen that I'm thinking then you are asking me why I'm thinking this way?

                        On the contrary, I always assume you're NOT thinking. Thinking people come to the right conclusions. You seem to think al-quraan is a book of history, so you can't be thinking.

                        Haha what a laugh

                        Al Quran is tafsil Al Kitab, where you got this from first? can you direct to me to a verse?

                        In 25 years, you've never come across the ayaat? Have you been reading blindfolded?
                        Because you've been writing with your ego, you can't even see the ayat Leyla posted for you. Tsk tsk...

                        why don't you walk us through it instead opf just putting the verse number, I'm sure you do that to avoide being exposed that your understanding to most Quran verses are flawed

                        please do and walk us through the Quran verses to enlighten us

                        Fair request. Here you go

                        There is not an animal (that lives) on the earth, nor a being that flies on its wings, but (forms part of) communities like you. Nothing have we omitted from the Book, and they (all) shall be gathered to their Lord in the end (6/3

                        did you encounter this in your 25 years of reading?

                        and what lesson that is?, the Quran is full of lessons, you are one hell of a confuser, I guess you are the one that was born without logic in the head

                        So you can't understand the lesson? Well, you should look up why. Al-quraan actually tells you why too....

                        sure many things in the Quran are history

                        Ah brilliant. Who calls al-quraan 'asaatirul awwaleen', Ahmed? Did you encounter this in the last 25 years?

                        I donlt acceot you sneaky short comments on any Quran verse, you must bring the verse here and walk me through it if you want me to dicuss the Quran with ya, other than that any Quran comment by you will be ignored

                        So you can't see the verse has AL-KITAAB instead of kitaab? Maybe you need another 25 years.

                        first of all, I don't know why you don't get it, I need not to show anything to anyone, I onnly liase with the ones I respect and to answer their questions, all the rest of humans in the world will be ignored, very simple rule in my Book

                        Yes, ignore what you can't deal with. Being a programmer, you surely know of the ostrich algorithm.

                        you suffer from a very law IQ Mister Q, I concuded this already, Al Kitab was mentioned numerous times in the Quran and it referred to many other books, but I will only prove that to the others whom are identified in my book to liase civily with but only iof they raise the Question with me

                        So even though God uses the word 'kutuub', here He used 'al-kitaab'. Your God has a poor knowledge of Arabic. I guess now you need to teach even God Arabic.

                        And please don't give me NONSENSE about speaking civilly. You don't know the meaning of the word. Right from the beginning, your language is provocative, quarrelsome and RACIST. That's how you create a facade around your lack of knowledge about al-quraan. The truth is, you've never encountered these verses before and they challenge your world-view. This is evidenced by the poor responses you've come up with. Al-quraan is history. God means 'many books' when he says 'al-kitaab'. And you call other people 'laughable'. A good long look in the mirror would help, believe me.

                        Haha, what an ignorance, it was mentioned singualr as a single book for each, NOT the same book for all, you are so funny

                        Is that so? So why is the word KULLUN not present in the verse. Why is AL-KITAAB instead of kitaabun. Come on Ahmed, you can do better than that. Al-quraan is contradicting you at every turn, as usual.

                          Peace Ahmed,

                          You stated

                          Therefore what I believe in is the fact that those are mutashabihat verses deliberately inserted in the Quran by Allah as per 37 and 37 has given me an example of what I should do as the people with knowledge did, by not chasing the meaning or believing in (concluding) a specific meaning and just believing that it was sent by Allah to test the ones whose hearts have perversity

                          OK, so you believe the guidance you received from 37 in particular is that you should not attempt to find the guidance in certain verses? Fair enough, I guess.

                          oh yeh, and it is the understanding of most well known and solid Muslims, like Omar, Abu Bakr and hundreds of scholars came after them

                          I was not aware that Omar and Abu Bakr authored books. Could you reference their writings?

                          IT IS THE CLEAR ARABIC WORDS that I walked you through it sentence by sentence,

                          Yes, THE CLEAR ARABIC WORDS that YOU INTERPRETED! Please let's not go through this again.

                          ironically you didn?t show us what is your understanding to 37

                          yes, I did. Here it is again

                          I agree with most of your analysis, except 2 points
                          1- This ayah cannot be an indicator that parts of the Qur'an are confusing, as that would contradict the many ayat that explain how the Qur'an is clearly explained, easy to understand, etc.
                          2- If I accept your understanding that the waw does not connect "no one knows its hidden meanings except Allah" to "And those who are firmly grounded", then this will contradict 1736, which tells us to veify information, to not accept anything blindly.

                          You stated

                          it is not invalid, it will just destroy your claim that the quran is fully detailed and easy to understand, also it will divide the people not to unite them

                          A the people are already divided doing it your way
                          B multiple meanings does not mean it is difficult to understand, it simply means it has multiple meanings.

                          Therefore, your statement "your argument has - 100 sense, I meant (minus 100)", is 100% negated wink

                          of course my judgement is not infallible, but I?m glad that my judgment here that is based on the clear Arabic words that I walked you through it is the same judgment as the big guns in Islam, like Mohammad the prophet for example, Mohammad actually discussed 37 a lot in many history records, would you like to see the history records by Mohammad?

                          Yes, please provide reference to some of the books Muhammad authored.

                          of course I accept that argument, however not the case with mutashabihat of the many understandings are contradictory

                          Please provide an example for us.

                          the other ones you are talking about that have different meanings standings generations, are very muhkamat verse

                          Such as??

                          Ok as I told you earlier it was discussed in details but I have to find the comment and bring it in here

                          Please do.

                          Peace,
                          Tay

                            try to search for the word Kitab and Al Kitab and you will see than many books were mentioned

                            There are no such verses. The reason you're asking me for verses is because you can't produce any evidence as usual.

                            Haha, here we go mister IQuran

                            Al Kitab in 22 means Al Quran

                            Al Kitab in 253 means Al Torah

                            Al Kitab in 1951 means Al Torah

                            Al Kitab in 181 means Al Quran

                            Do you want more?

                            I have about 161 examples

                            what a dumb question, firstly you assumen that I'm thinking then you are asking me why I'm thinking this way?

                            On the contrary, I always assume you're NOT thinking.

                            you have just contradicted yourself, thanks for the show

                            Thinking people come to the right conclusions.

                            Haha, another confusing comment

                            I guess it should be, properly thinking people come to the right conclusions, not those who are on speed

                            You seem to think al-quraan is a book of history,

                            now this is funny, you just contradicted yourself again, LOL, now I?m thinking again

                            so you can't be thinking.

                            omg, now I?m back to not thinking

                            please, can you make up your mind?

                            Am I thinking?

                            or

                            Am I not thinking?

                            Haha what a laugh

                            Al Quran is tafsil Al Kitab, where you got this from first? can you direct to me to a verse?

                            In 25 years, you've never come across the ayaat? Have you been reading blindfolded?

                            firstly how anyone can read a book blindfolded?

                            Possibly David Coperfield, What do you reckon?

                            Secondly I?m not David Copperfield

                            And finally, another stupid comment by you

                            Because you've been writing with your ego, you can't even see the ayat Leyla posted for you. Tsk tsk...

                            Try one more time, but next time, speak on your behalf not others, if you see that the verses she posted are relevant then why not you walk me through it WORD BY WORD?

                            Other than that, it seems to me that you have nothing to say but non sense

                            why don't you walk us through it instead opf just putting the verse number, I'm sure you do that to avoide being exposed that your understanding to most Quran verses are flawed

                            please do and walk us through the Quran verses to enlighten us

                            Fair request. Here you go

                            There is not an animal (that lives) on the earth, nor a being that flies on its wings, but (forms part of) communities like you. Nothing have we omitted from the Book, and they (all) shall be gathered to their Lord in the end (6/3

                            Havn?t I respond to her regarding this verse?

                            Of course I did, now it seems you are the one that have a veil on the eyes

                            did you encounter this in your 25 years of reading?

                            how about you?

                            It seems it is not you who encountered it, but Leyla, LOL

                            and what lesson that is?, the Quran is full of lessons, you are one hell of a confuser, I guess you are the one that was born without logic in the head

                            So you can't understand the lesson?

                            Nister IQuran, I said Lessons, not lesson, there is an S at the end

                            Well, you should look up why. Al-quraan actually tells you why too....

                            firstly which lesson out of the lessons?

                            Secondly, donlt post your silly and confusing comment without walking me through the verses WORD BY WORD, other than this I will consider you have nothing to say to me and I do too, I only reply to your harassments

                            sure many things in the Quran are history

                            of course

                            Ah brilliant. Who calls al-quraan 'asaatirul awwaleen', Ahmed? Did you encounter this in the last 25 years?

                            here we go another manipulation by the professional

                            firstly let me ask you, is 'asaatirul awwaleen' means history?

                            now I got you cornered, LOL

                            I donlt acceot you sneaky short comments on any Quran verse, you must bring the verse here and walk me through it if you want me to dicuss the Quran with ya, other than that any Quran comment by you will be ignored

                            So you can't see the verse has AL-KITAAB instead of kitaab? Maybe you need another 25 years.

                            Haha, mate, I donlt want to read your confusion, please don?t direct your non sense to me any more, you can direct it to the other though, thanks

                            first of all, I don't know why you don't get it, I need not to show anything to anyone, I onnly liase with the ones I respect and to answer their questions, all the rest of humans in the world will be ignored, very simple rule in my Book

                            Yes, ignore what you can't deal with. Being a programmer, you surely know of the ostrich algorithm.

                            no, I don?t but I will leave it to you, I really don?t want to listen to your non sense, please don?t direct it to me, but you can direct it to the others though, thanks

                            you suffer from a very law IQ Mister Q, I concuded this already, Al Kitab was mentioned numerous times in the Quran and it referred to many other books, but I will only prove that to the others whom are identified in my book to liase civily with but only iof they raise the Question with me

                            So even though God uses the word 'kutuub', here He used 'al-kitaab'. Your God has a poor knowledge of Arabic. I guess now you need to teach even God Arabic.

                            go away

                            And please don't give me NONSENSE about speaking civilly. You don't know the meaning of the word. Right from the beginning, your language is provocative, quarrelsome and RACIST. That's how you create a facade around your lack of knowledge about al-quraan. The truth is, you've never encountered these verses before and they challenge your world-view. This is evidenced by the poor responses you've come up with. Al-quraan is history. God means 'many books' when he says 'al-kitaab'. And you call other people 'laughable'. A good long look in the mirror would help, believe me.

                            Haha, what an ignorance, it was mentioned singualr as a single book for each, NOT the same book for all, you are so funny

                            Is that so? So why is the word KULLUN not present in the verse. Why is AL-KITAAB instead of kitaabun. Come on Ahmed, you can do better than that. Al-quraan is contradicting you at every turn, as usual.

                            get the verse here again and walk me through it word by word, your unorganised comments will be ignored

                              Peace Ahmed,

                              You stated

                              Therefore what I believe in is the fact that those are mutashabihat verses deliberately inserted in the Quran by Allah as per 37 and 37 has given me an example of what I should do as the people with knowledge did, by not chasing the meaning or believing in (concluding) a specific meaning and just believing that it was sent by Allah to test the ones whose hearts have perversity

                              OK, so you believe the guidance you received from 37 in particular is that you should not attempt to find the guidance in certain verses? Fair enough, I guess.

                              Yes but only if those certain verses can not be explained using the Quran, if it will be explained using the different opinions then I will leave it out and I won?t care about it, I will only believe that it was sent by Allah and nothing more, just I donlt have the knowledge neither any human for that matter to know the meaning except Allah as per 37

                              So far I have never come to a mutashabihat verse that I should know what it means to follow, like marrying 4 for example, 43 is a clear cut mutashabihat verse, but because I believer the order to marry one was not mutashabihat, it will overwrite marrying 4 in the mutashabihat verse 43, therefore I will only follow the muhkam verse that told me to marry only one as this is better option for men, because men can never be fair between more than one wife, hence I won?t care what is the right meaning for 43, but I will listen to other opinions and possibly have my own but will never settle on one meaning as it is the proper meaning intended by Allah because no one will know except Allah as per 37

                              oh yeh, and it is the understanding of most well known and solid Muslims, like Omar, Abu Bakr and hundreds of scholars came after them

                              I was not aware that Omar and Abu Bakr authored books. Could you reference their writings?

                              come on bro, did I say they authored books?

                              No I did not

                              So why you are saying as such?

                              Anyway, I meant from the history records

                              IT IS THE CLEAR ARABIC WORDS that I walked you through it sentence by sentence,

                              Yes, THE CLEAR ARABIC WORDS that YOU INTERPRETED! Please let's not go through this again.

                              come on, you still insisting on me interpreting it, well let me surprise you, my interoperation was exactly like prophet mohammad interpretation, LOL

                              ironically you didn?t show us what is your understanding to 37

                              yes, I did. Here it is again

                              I agree with most of your analysis, except 2 points
                              1- This ayah cannot be an indicator that parts of the Qur'an are confusing, as that would contradict the many ayat that explain how the Qur'an is clearly explained, easy to understand, etc.

                              well, what it will indicate then?

                              And where is those ayats you say they will be a contradiction?

                              Come on bro, try to be a bit informative

                              2- If I accept your understanding

                              excuse me, it is not my understanding that you should accept, it is the common sense and the prophet understanding that you should accept, it just happened that m y understanding was exactly like the prophet understanding

                              that the waw does not connect "no one knows its hidden meanings except Allah" to "And those who are firmly grounded", then this will contradict 1736, which tells us to veify information, to not accept anything blindly.

                              sorry, I will consider your statement a huge mistake unless youshow me WHERE IT SAYS IN 1736 THAT YOU SHOULD VERIFY THE INFORMATION FIRST

                              now I got you cornered, LOL bro

                              You stated

                              it is not invalid, it will just destroy your claim that the quran is fully detailed and easy to understand, also it will divide the people not to unite them

                              A the people are already divided doing it your way

                              My way only apply on me, I really care less who will buy it, I?m just happy and proud that my way regarding the verses in discussion was exactly as the prophet way according to the history records, but I knw that most Muslims don?t follow the prophet teachings properly

                              B multiple meanings does not mean it is difficult to understand, it simply means it has multiple meanings.

                              as long as the multiple meaning will not contradict each other neither it will contradict other verses in the Quran

                              Therefore, your statement "your argument has - 100 sense, I meant (minus 100)", is 100% negated wink

                              LOL, ok

                              of course my judgement is not infallible, but I?m glad that my judgment here that is based on the clear Arabic words that I walked you through it is the same judgment as the big guns in Islam, like Mohammad the prophet for example, Mohammad actually discussed 37 a lot in many history records, would you like to see the history records by Mohammad?

                              Yes, please provide reference to some of the books Muhammad authored.

                              come on bro, did I say Mohammad authored any books?

                              No I did not

                              It is called history records bro

                              of course I accept that argument, however not the case with mutashabihat of the many understandings are contradictory

                              Please provide an example for us.

                              I don?t need to provide any bro, I?m just a watcher to those whom verse 37 describes them, but I will try to explain 43 many meanings and show you the contradictions when I have a bit of time.

                              the other ones you are talking about that have different meanings standings generations, are very muhkamat verse

                              Such as??

                              I will show you a couple of examples later

                              Ok as I told you earlier it was discussed in details but I have to find the comment and bring it in here

                              Please do.

                              Peace,
                              Tay

                              Sure, all will come later today

                              peace

                                Hello Tay

                                Here is an example of a few Muhkamat verses, the verses are telling us that Allah is telling Mohammad to inform us with the story of Adam sons, then it goes into a bit of details and ends with a law, that law was forced upon the children of Israel and will be forced on any human until the judgment day

                                27- And relate to them the story of the two sons of Adam with truth when they both offered an offering, but it was accepted from one of them and was not accepted from the other. He said I I will most certainly slay you. (The other) said Allah only accepts from those who guard (against evil).

                                28- If you will stretch forth your hand towards me to slay me, I am not one to stretch forth my hand towards you to slay you surely I fear Allah, the Lord of the worlds

                                29- Surely I wish that you should bear the sin committed against me and your own sin, and so you would be of the inmates of the fire, and this is the recompense of the unjust.

                                30- Then his mind facilitated to him the slaying of his brother so he slew him; then he became one of the losers

                                31- Then Allah sent a crow digging up the earth so that he might show him how he should cover the dead body of his brother. He said Woe me! do I lack the strength that I should be like this crow and cover the dead body of my brother? So he became of those who regret.

                                32- For this reason did We prescribe to the children of Israel that whoever slays a soul, unless it be for manslaughter or for mischief in the land, it is as though he slew all men; and whoever keeps it alive, it is as though he kept alive all men; and certainly Our messengers came to them with clear arguments, but even after that many of them certainly act extravagantly in the land.

                                (27)
                                (2

                                -> Please before you come and tell me that the story is a metaphor and never happened, you have to be aware that Allah said in 527 the following ? ?, which means ? And relate to them the story of the two sons of Adam WITH TRUTH?, i.e. it was Haqq, i.e. a true story, because Allah does not need to tell stories like our grannies before we go to bed, He can simply tell us NOT TO KILL ANY ONE, in fact He did as such in another Muhakam verse, here it is

                                And do not kill any one whom Allah has forbidden, except for a just cause, and whoever is slain unjustly, We have indeed given to his heir authority, so let him not exceed the just limits in slaying; surely he is aided.

                                (33)

                                -> See, Allah does not need to tell us unreal stories like our grannies unless it happened for real that is why He told Mohammad to say these stories WITH HAQQ

                                -> The point is we read in verse 532, the law that was created because of what Adam son did by killing his innocent brother ? ?, i.e. ? For this reason did We prescribe to the children of Israel that whoever slays a soul, unless it be for manslaughter or for mischief in the land, it is as though he slew all men; and whoever keeps it alive, it is as though he kept alive all men;? and this law will stand from the day of Adam sons till the day of Judgment

                                All the verses posted above are Muhkam verses and will stand true in all generations, without any changes to the menaing because it is a hisorical fact, in my next example I will show you other Muhkam verses that accommodate for the changes between the generations and will stand true from the day of revelation till they day of Judgment

                                Peace

                                  Peace Ahmed,

                                  You stated

                                  Yes but only if those certain verses can not be explained using the Quran, if it will be explained using the different opinions then I will leave it out and I won?t care about it, I will only believe that it was sent by Allah and nothing more, just I donlt have the knowledge neither any human for that matter to know the meaning except Allah as per 37

                                  I respect your method, but still disagree with your conclusion on 37.

                                  come on bro, did I say they authored books?
                                  No I did not
                                  So why you are saying as such?
                                  Anyway, I meant from the history records

                                  Islamic history, as I'm sure you're aware, is tainted beyond recognition. I know they did not author books and was just illustrating that you referring to their methods cannot be validated via "history".

                                  come on, you still insisting on me interpreting it, well let me surprise you, my interoperation was exactly like prophet mohammad interpretation, LOL

                                  Perhaps when you meet him in the next life you can confirm this, inshallah. For now, it's hearsay.

                                  well, what it will indicate then?

                                  And where is those ayats you say they will be a contradiction?

                                  Come on bro, try to be a bit informative

                                  Ahmed, I think you need another nap wink
                                  You already replied to those comments 3 posts ago and I responed in kind. I re-pasted them because you said I did not offer my understanding of 37

                                  excuse me, it is not my understanding that you should accept, it is the common sense and the prophet understanding that you should accept, it just happened that m y understanding was exactly like the prophet understanding

                                  Again, you have no way of confirming what the prophet understood or did not. Let's take it at face value then. It remains your understanding.

                                  sorry, I will consider your statement a huge mistake unless youshow me WHERE IT SAYS IN 1736 THAT YOU SHOULD VERIFY THE INFORMATION FIRST

                                  I already showed you that every single translator interpreted 1736 as such. Do you recall how 1736 ends?

                                  now I got you cornered, LOL bro

                                  I slipped right past you and turned the tables wink

                                  My way only apply on me, I really care less who will buy it,

                                  That's not what you said before, but I'll let that one slide.

                                  I?m just happy and proud that my way regarding the verses in discussion was exactly as the prophet way according to the history records, but I knw that most Muslims don?t follow the prophet teachings properly

                                  What history?? You keep mentioning this history but have provided no reference.

                                  as long as the multiple meaning will not contradict each other neither it will contradict other verses in the Quran

                                  Glad to see we agree.

                                  I don?t need to provide any bro, I?m just a watcher to those whom verse 37 describes them, but I will try to explain 43 many meanings and show you the contradictions when I have a bit of time.

                                  Bro, you said there are many contradictions with the understandings of the allegorical verses. Atleast have the courtesy to give us one example.

                                  all will come later today

                                  Inshallah.

                                  Peace,

                                    Peace Tay

                                    ok, thanks but it is not my opinion, it just happen to be the opinion of the Majority

                                    come on bro, did I say they authored books?
                                    No I did not
                                    So why you are saying as such?
                                    Anyway, I meant from the history records

                                    Islamic history, as I'm sure you're aware, is tainted beyond recognition. I know they did not author books and was just illustrating that you referring to their methods cannot be validated via "history".

                                    Wrong, it is Satan who made it look this way to you and to others, I almost fell in the same trap, but I know what make sense at the end of the day and I can't feel more peacful and confident in my life

                                    History is History, and we use our minds to qualify it, also part of the required belief is to believe in the messenegers of Allah, if I put the role of a messneger a side for argument sake,m then thoise people will be as any other historical record that we belive in like hitler and others people of the past, in fact the Quran told us that Allah will make these true affairs stories in the Quran so we learn from it, He never said it is a metaphor for just learning a lesson from it

                                    anyway, it is personal choice to believe in any historical record, ironically most of my own understanidng is the same as the historical records and this on its own merit m akes feel happy and peaceful

                                    come on, you still insisting on me interpreting it, well let me surprise you, my interoperation was exactly like prophet mohammad interpretation, LOL

                                    Perhaps when you meet him in the next life you can confirm this, inshallah. For now, it's hearsay.

                                    you are missing the point, prophet Mohammad was a native Arabic speaker and I was also the same, therefore most likely our unbised understanding will match

                                    Ahmed, I think you need another nap wink
                                    You already replied to those comments 3 posts ago and I responed in kind. I re-pasted them because you said I did not offer my understanding of 37

                                    ok I will try to have a nap, so what you are saying that there will be humans who will crack the meaning of the Mutashabihat verse?

                                    yes/no?

                                    excuse me, it is not my understanding that you should accept, it is the common sense and the prophet understanding that you should accept, it just happened that m y understanding was exactly like the prophet understanding

                                    Again, you have no way of confirming what the prophet understood or did not. Let's take it at face value then. It remains your understanding.

                                    excuse me, it is the common sense behind the clear arabic words, for a non native arabic speaker, I know it may be hard, especially when thet are set on some made up ideas that are totally new to the Umaah, I call it Bidah

                                    sorry, I will consider your statement a huge mistake unless youshow me WHERE IT SAYS IN 1736 THAT YOU SHOULD VERIFY THE INFORMATION FIRST

                                    I already showed you that every single translator interpreted 1736 as such. Do you recall how 1736 ends?

                                    excuse me you said it the verse says "WE SHOULD VERIFY EVERYTHING" now there is no such thing in the arbic verse therefore it has to be a clear cut lie, sorry

                                    now I got you cornered, LOL bro

                                    I slipped right past you and turned the tables wink

                                    cool bro, LOL

                                    look mate, the arabic verse does not have this bit "WE SHOULD VERIFY EVERYTHING", now all I'm asking you to show me where it says this in the arabic verse, unless you are following the translators blindly and I see this worse than following the sunnah, wink

                                    My way only apply on me, I really care less who will buy it,

                                    That's not what you said before, but I'll let that one slide.

                                    please don't and give me a chance to clear any misunderstanding you have

                                    I?m just happy and proud that my way regarding the verses in discussion was exactly as the prophet way according to the history records, but I knw that most Muslims don?t follow the prophet teachings properly

                                    What history?? You keep mentioning this history but have provided no reference.

                                    The history of the people of the past, as I said it is a personal choice to belive in it or not, however I'm really felighted that my understanding matched those historical people who were arabs as well not a confused non arabic speakers who to stick their nose in what they don't know, this is revolting mate

                                    do you believe that your great great great great great grand pa existed?, if so can you prove it to me beyond doubt? thanks

                                    as long as the multiple meaning will not contradict each other neither it will contradict other verses in the Quran

                                    Glad to see we agree.

                                    cool, it make us feel happy indeed lol

                                    I don?t need to provide any bro, I?m just a watcher to those whom verse 37 describes them, but I will try to explain 43 many meanings and show you the contradictions when I have a bit of time.

                                    Bro, you said there are many contradictions with the understandings of the allegorical verses. Atleast have the courtesy to give us one example.

                                    yep I will inshallah, and will use 43 as an example, just give me some time bro, I do have a life lol

                                    all will come later today

                                    Inshallah.

                                    Peace,

                                    Thanks from reminding me to say Inshallah, this is actually a law according to the Quran, may Allah forgive me

                                      Hello Tay

                                      Here is an example of a few Muhkamat verses, the verses is telling us that Allah is telling Mohammad to tell us the story of Adam sons, then it goes in a bit of details then it ends with a law, that law was forced opon the children of Israel and will be forced on any human until the judgment day

                                      27- And relate to them the story of the two sons of Adam with truth when they both offered an offering, but it was accepted from one of them and was not accepted from the other. He said I I will most certainly slay you. (The other) said Allah only accepts from those who guard (against evil).

                                      28- If you will stretch forth your hand towards me to slay me, I am not one to stretch forth my hand towards you to slay you surely I fear Allah, the Lord of the worlds

                                      29- Surely I wish that you should bear the sin committed against me and your own sin, and so you would be of the inmates of the fire, and this is the recompense of the unjust.

                                      30- Then his mind facilitated to him the slaying of his brother so he slew him; then he became one of the losers

                                      31- Then Allah sent a crow digging up the earth so that he might show him how he should cover the dead body of his brother. He said Woe me! do I lack the strength that I should be like this crow and cover the dead body of my brother? So he became of those who regret.

                                      32- For this reason did We prescribe to the children of Israel that whoever slays a soul, unless it be for manslaughter or for mischief in the land, it is as though he slew all men; and whoever keeps it alive, it is as though he kept alive all men; and certainly Our messengers came to them with clear arguments, but even after that many of them certainly act extravagantly in the land.

                                      (27)
                                      (2
                                      (29)
                                      (30)
                                      (31)
                                      (32)

                                      -> Please before you come and tell me that the story is a metaphor and never happened, you have to be aware that Allah said in 527 the following ? ?, which means ? And relate to them the story of the two sons of Adam WITH TRUTH?, i.e. it was Haqq, i.e. a true story, because Allah does not need to tell stories like our grannies before we go to bed, He can simply tell us NOT TO KILL ANY ONE, in fact He did as such in another Muhakam verse, here it is

                                      And do not kill any one whom Allah has forbidden, except for a just cause, and whoever is slain unjustly, We have indeed given to his heir authority, so let him not exceed the just limits in slaying; surely he is aided.

                                      (33)

                                      -> See, Allah does not need to tell us unreal stories like our grannies unless it happened for real that is why He told Mohammad to say these stories WITH HAQQ

                                      -> The point is we read in verse 532, the law that was created because of what Adam son did by killing his innocent brother ? ?, i.e. ? For this reason did We prescribe to the children of Israel that whoever slays a soul, unless it be for manslaughter or for mischief in the land, it is as though he slew all men; and whoever keeps it alive, it is as though he kept alive all men;? and this law will stand from the day of Adam sons till the day of Judgment

                                      All the verses posted above are Muhkam verses and will stand true in all generations, without any changes, in my next example inshallah I will show a Muhkam verses that accommodate for the changes between the generations and will stand true from the day of revelation till they day of Judgment

                                      Peace

                                        Hello again Tay

                                        Here is a verse that will accommodate for the generations changes and its meaning will keep changing as humans develop their way of life on earth, we read in sura no 16 the following muhkamat verses

                                        5- And He created the Anaam for you; you have in them warm clothing and (many) advantages, and of them do you eat.

                                        6- And there is beauty in them for you when you drive them back (to home), and when you send them forth (to pasture).

                                        7- And they carry your heavy loads to regions which you could not reach but with distress of the souls; most surely your Lord is Compassionate, Merciful.

                                        8- And (He made) horses and mules and asses that you might ride upon them and as an ornament; and He creates what you do not know.

                                        (5)
                                        (6)
                                        (7)
                                        (

                                        -> In 165, Allah is telling us some important hard core facts about the ?Al Anaam? ?The Cattle and similar?, and what I mean by hard core facts that it will stand true till the judgment day, ? And He created the cattle for you; you have in them warm clothing and (many) advantages, and of them do you eat.?, the facts regarding Al Anaam are as follow

                                        1. we have in them warm clothing
                                        2. we have in them (many) advantages
                                        3. we eat them

                                        -> I guess no generation can dispute the above hard core facts, Allah continued In 166 to give us more facts about Al Anaam And there is beauty in them for us when we drive them back (to home), and when you send them forth (to pasture)., one fact can be extracted from here, this is very accurate stuff indeed, as if you go to the countryside where the farmers use the cattle for many things you will see how hard they appreciate their cattle and worry about them, 166 always amazes me with its accuracy, a very Muhkam verse indeed,

                                        -> In 167, we read more facts about Al Anaam ? And they carry your heavy loads to regions which you could not reach but with distress of the souls?, this is one hard core fact about Al Anaam, please pay attention to this fact regarding ? they carry our heavy loads to regions which we could not reach but with distress of the souls?, again very accurate stuff in here as up to this day in many undeveloped countries we see that they use many of Al Anaam for that purpose of carrying our heavy loads, another very Muhkam verse, I guess the majority now day don?t use the Anaam as a method of transporting, it is obvious that they use, cars, trucks, trains and aeroplanes, this is what the next very Muhakam verse will tell us, it did it in a way that will never cause confusion to those primitive people then , and to us assuming that we will be considered primitive to later generations

                                        -> Verse 168 is one of the most amazing Muhkam verses in the Quran, I actually managed to realize this fact over 15 years ago, and till today this verse just stuns me every time I read it, the verse started by telling us further hard core facts about Al Anaam ? And (He made) horses and mules and asses that you might ride upon them and as an ornament;?, See, the verse now started to be more specific by mentioning some Anaam (horses and mules and asses) that we might ride them as well they are an ornament , we know riding horses and similar happens up to this moment in many countries, either for fun or for real day to day life, if the verses stopped here then we have a problem in hand, according to the trend in the last 1400 years, it seems that eventually riding horses as day to day life will disappear, riding may stay for fun forever, but for day to day life I guess in 2000 years form now (a rough guess) there will be no horses or donkeys used to transfer or heavy loads and stuff, so if Allah mentioned that he will create cars in the future, the verse will cause confusion to the ones who don?t know what cars is, in fact the Quran will look silly, but instead Allah ended the verse with a mighty statement ? and He creates what you do not know?, THIS IS GREAT STUFF Tay, the verse is telling us that Allah may create other things that we don?t know, there is no question that this means cars, trucks, trains, and aeroplanes that we see now days along with the Al Anaam, carrying our heavy stuff, therefore the verses was valid then, and valid now and will be valid in 2000 years and will surely be valid until the judgment day, as every generation manages to create a new type of transport verse 168 will always stand true, you may argue and say Humans created those cars, trucks, trains and aeroplanes, well, what was used in these invention is another gift Allah gave it to us, this gift called iron, and in another Muhkam verse, this is exactly what Allah told us, that He sent to us the Iron for the benefit of mankind

                                        Certainly We sent Our messengers with clear arguments, and sent down with them the Book and the balance that men may conduct themselves with equity; and We have made the iron, wherein is great violence and advantages to men, and that Allah may know who helps Him and His messengers in the secret; surely Allah is Strong, Mighty..

                                        (25)

                                        -> Another very Muhkam verse that will stand true till the Judgment day, we can also read that The Book was sent down with the Rusul, i.e. they received books with them that was SENT down to them, like the Iron was SENT down, this must refute the confusion promoted by those saying Al Kitab is the book of the universal laws, I found it laughable as in 5725 we read that Al Kitab was sent down to them, now NONE of theses Rusul as far as I know claimed to have the same book of the universal laws

                                        In my next comment I will try to show you how verse 43 is a mutashabihat verse (inshallah)

                                        Peace be with you

                                          Hello Tay

                                          Here is a verse that I classify Mutashabihat, the reason is simply as follow

                                          1. it is the only verse that discusses polygamy, i.e. we can?t use the Quran to explain it
                                          2. There are many different understandings, some clearly conflict with the spirit of the Quran (Especially Regarding Orphans)
                                          3. Because the verse concerns an important law and is also mutashabihat, the law in it was over written with another law, IRONICALLY, the other law is in the same verse

                                          "If ye fear that ye shall not be able to deal justly with the orphans, Marry women of your choice, Two or three or four; but if ye fear that ye shall not be able to deal justly (with them), then only one, or (a captive) that your right hands possess, that will be more suitable, to prevent you from doing injustice.)

                                          (3)

                                          -> The verse started with a problem related to the orphans ? If ye fear that ye shall not be able to deal justly with the orphans?, the first impression is Orphans means Orphans ?boys and girls?, others say the orphans in the verse means ?Orphaned Girls only?, they also suggest they are ready for marriage, the problem in hand which is fearing to be just to the orphans is also understood differently by others, some suggest by noit taking good care of them, others suggest to be specifically relating to the orphaned women who are ready to marry and they have wealth and the men fear after marrying them not to be just by joining their wealth to theirs, this is a very starnage indeed, we need all that sequence of events to be true, I believe they based their understanding on the previous verse

                                          " To orphans restore their property (When they reach their age), nor substitute (your) worthless things for (their) good ones; and devour not their property (by mixing it up) with your own. For this is indeed a great sin.?

                                          (2)

                                          -> Again 42 only mentioned the Orphans in general ?Boys and Girls, Allah is advising us ? To orphans restore their property (When they reach their age), nor substitute (your) worthless things for (their) good ones; and devour not their property (by mixing it up) with your own. For this is indeed a great sin.?, the verse never stated that it is a case of marriage that we should not mix their property with theirs when we marry them, 42 is very clear and is not mutashabihat, they only selected a specific case that should be covered under the general rule of not abusing the property of the Orphans, I guess they were trying to prove their understanding to 43 that it meant this case of not being fair with the orphaned women, what is stricking that what they try to convince us with regarding the marrying the orphaned women IS MENTIOJED EXACTLY AS THEY SAID IN 4127, here it is

                                          " And they ask you a decision about women. Say Allah makes known to you His decision concerning them, and that which is recited to you in the Book concerning female orphans whom you do not give what is appointed for them while you desire to marry them, and concerning the weak among children, and that you should deal towards orphans with equity; and whatever good you do, Allah surely knows it. "

                                          (127)

                                          -> See, but the problem is, I see no relation whatsoever between 43 and 4127, neither 43 and 42, however it is still a possibility as there is nothing firm from the Quran to refute it, I guess it can be relative here, even relative regarding what orphans means, some may say losing any of the parents, some say they must loose both their parents, another confusing matter

                                          -> Now after we saw that the problem in hand is very confusing and can have more than one meaning, we will also find that the solution proposed is confusing and can have more than one meaning ? Marry women of your choice, Two or three or four;?, ok, whom exactly they will marry?, is it

                                          1. Any other woman
                                          2. The mother of the orphans, or
                                          3. Another woman but must not be an orphaned women

                                          Again each one can possibly apply with a percentage according to the logic, we may sense that one option has a higher possibility than the other, but all three option still have a percentage even if it is 1%

                                          -> How Allah do this to us? I mean we have a serious problem in hand which was not very clear and the solution is even not clearer, but what we can sense that the solution is good for men and bad for women, I guess most men know that, I guess most of them will also be in the favour of marrying more than one, but hold on a second horney men, the solution was conditioned? but if ye fear that ye shall not be able to deal justly (with them), then only one, or (a captive) that your right hands possess?, now we have a mutashabihat condition as well, I guess the condition can be mutashabihat because some men may think they can be fair with women hence they will go for marrying more than 1, and others will never even think about it and just marry more than one, it doesn?t matter for them if they will deal justly and equally with their wives, in fact they always lean not to be and even deliberately

                                          -> I found it amazing that The mutashabihat problem, the mutashabihat solution and the mutashabihat condition all fell in one verse that I call mutashabihat verse, however verse 4129 in the same sura demolish the mutashabihat condition and takes it out of the human judgment

                                          "Ye are never able to be fair and just as between women, even if it is your ardent desire...... "

                                          ??? (129)

                                          -> Here we go, clearly Allah is telling us in the above Muhkam verse that ? Ye are never able to be fair and just as between women, even if it is your ardent desire?, therefore, this important piece of information in this Muhkam verse should force the mutashabihat condition in 43, and should make our fear not to treat our multiple wives equally and justly a reality and a fact as well we were told that there no way out of it, it is in the Hu_Man nature, LOL

                                          I can?t lie and say that I didn?t try to chase the meaning of 43, but my chase was only to see where all other understanding are coming from, NOT TO FIOLLOW ANY OF THEM, as my decision was already made according to 4129 in conjunction with 43 that true submitters to Allah should only marry ONE

                                          Therefore 43 for me is a mutashabihat verse by design and a Muhkamat verse as it comply with 37, when I say it comply perfectly with 37 I meant the following

                                          1. The enemy of Islam used the verse to cause discord between the believers and the others to show that our religion is sort of a lusty one

                                          2. Many of the believers followed different understandings because it will work in their favours

                                          3. Seeing the solution practised in my culture and even in my family then realizing ?The discord? and the horrible effects it brings on the wives and the children, made me believe it is not practised right, I hardly saw the polygamy practised for the sake of orphans anyway, I only see it practised because of lust or because husbands got sick of their aging wife, yet I hardly saw any polygamy that is working in a peaceful environment between the parties involved

                                          And my strongest argument is it is obvious that 4129 overwrites 43 therefore there is no need to chase the meaning of the mutashabihat bits in 43 unless the decision was already made to follow 4129 and not to follow any of the different understandings for 43

                                          Peace be with you
