      Even if a few words in the Holy Quran are not purely Arabic so what? What is the problem and what does it prove? Arabic itself is derived from some Phoenician language. For example the names of Israelite prophets are not purely Arabic words. The Holy Quran uses the word Israil, but this word has no meaning in the Arabic language, as it is an originally Hebrew word Yisra'El meaning Up to the standard of God.

          The Quran says Angels are not women

          Those who believe not in the Hereafter, name the angels with female names (5327)

          By the way how true this verse is, these days the nominal and ignorant Christians name their baby girls Gabriel, but there is no indication whatsoever Gabriel as mentioned in the Bible is a female.

            Probably it is Christians who can answer your query not anyone else.

              Gabriel, but there is no indication whatsoever Gabriel as mentioned in the Bible is a female.

              Nice try, Gabrielle is the female version. Gabriel is a male-name. That has nothing to do with christianity or the bible whatsoever. If I named my girl Muhammad that means that all 'muslims' believe muhammad is a female? That's the kind of absurd logic you are using.

              Btw, I know/have known many christians and ex-christians and they all believe that Gabriel as mentioned in the bible is a MALE

                I believe that, but a lot of other Muslims believe that Arabic is the Language of God.

                  Dear Leoxyz,

                  Perhaps your habit to take something out of the text and then deduce things is so deep rooted that instinctively you can't help doing it. She said the same thing what you have now said; didn?t you find some wit therein?

                  Some names are being referred as of non Arabic origin. If a non Arab?s proper name was to be mentioned in Quran could it be in Arabic?

                  Someone has said Arabic was evolved from some other language.
                  Can anything be created without first there being a language? Everything created is to be given simultaneously a name and a name is of some language. Allah created everything. Should it be presumed that He created things without assigning those things some names?

                    No, it doesn't either. Therefore, calling them men or women is equally wrong.

                    and "women" is not synonymous to "female".

                        So, you think that "angels" are humans? "Unthaa/female" is not exclusive to humans, woman is.

                          Angels are certainly not humans {} as stated by the Quran. So woman is a female, and some people assign female names to Angels. If feminine names {conventionally thought to be appropriate for a woman or girl} are not to be assigned to the Angels and their gender cannot and should not be considered as female/feminine. And daugters are certainly woman/females

                          {Refer 4315-18}
