Contradiction in the Quran: Role of Muhammad according to Allah

E-mail Print PDF

Allah said Muhammad was sent for guiding people to Islam; He also said, Muhammad was not to guide.


The purpose of this article is to analyze the role of Muhammad according to Allah. Allah, the God of Islam, loved Muhammad and gave validity to his every action – savage or morally repulsive. The Quran is full of incidents where kafirs posed questions to Muhammad and Allah rushed to his rescue with ‘holy verses’. So, it would be interesting to note how Allah himself viewed the role of Muhammad as a guide to humanity.

So, let us begin with Surah Al-Baqarah:

Quran 2.272:

Yusuf Ali: It is not required of thee (O Messenger), to set them on the right path, but Allah sets on the right path whom He pleaseth. Whatever of good ye give benefits your own souls, and ye shall only do so seeking the "Face" of Allah. Whatever good ye give, shall be rendered back to you, and ye shall not Be dealt with unjustly.

Pickthall: The guiding of them is not thy duty (O Muhammad), but Allah guideth whom He will. And whatsoever good thing ye spend, it is for yourselves, when ye spend not save in search of Allah's Countenance; and whatsoever good thing ye spend, it will be repaid to you in full, and ye will not be wronged.

Shakir: To make them walk in the right way is not incumbent on you, but Allah guides aright whom He pleases; and whatever good thing you spend, it is to your own good; and you do not spend but to seek Allah's pleasure; and whatever good things you spend shall be paid back to you in full, and you shall not be wronged.

Here, we read a recurrent theme of the Quran: “Allah guides whom he pleases and leaves astray whom he pleases”. But of note is the beginning of this ayat: “The guiding of them is not thy duty (O Muhammad)”. This means that guiding people to the ‘right’ (read wrong) path is not required of Muhammad, because Allah is taking care of that. One thing must be kept in mind that this is the opinion of Allah himself.

Now let us read 13:7:

Quran 13.7:

YUSUF ALI: And the Unbelievers say: "Why is not a sign sent down to him from his Lord?" But thou art truly a warner, and to every people a guide.

PICKTHALL: Those who disbelieve say: If only some portent were sent down upon him from his Lord! Thou art a warner only, and for every folk a guide.

SHAKIR: And those who disbelieve say: Why has not a sign been sent down upon him from his Lord? You are only a warner and (there is) a guide for every people.

Whenever the kafirs asked Muhammad difficult questions, Allah rushed in with an answer.

But wait! What do we read here? Here Allah states that “Muhammad is a guide to EVERY people”. It is not hard to conclude that 2:272 and 13:7 contradicts. It seems that Islam’s Allah, the so-called creator of everything, including confusion, is himself confused about the role of Muhammad as a guide to humankind.

As Muslims start fuming like a chimney, let us quickly move on to another ‘clear’ verse:

Quran 28.56:

YUSUF ALI: It is true thou wilt not be able to guide every one, whom thou lovest; but Allah guides those whom He will and He knows best those who receive guidance.

PICKTHALL: Lo! thou (O Muhammad) guidest not whom thou lovest, but Allah guideth whom He will. And He is Best Aware of those who walk aright.

SHAKIR: Surely you cannot guide whom you love, but Allah guides whom He pleases, and He knows best the followers of the right way.

Note how the translation of Ali contradicts that of Shakir and Pickthall. A miracle indeed!

If Yusuf Ali is correct, then 28:56 is similar to 13:7, while if Shakir is correct then 28:56 reaffirms 2:272. Whatever the case, the contradiction still persists.

That guiding people to Islam is indeed a duty of Muhammad is clear from various verses of the Quran:

Quran 32.3:

YUSUF ALI: Or do they say, "He has forged it"? Nay, it is the Truth from thy Lord, that thou mayest admonish a people to whom no warner has come before thee: in order that they may receive guidance.

PICKTHALL: Or say theYusuf Ali: He hath invented it? Nay, but it is the Truth from thy Lord, that thou mayst warn a folk to whom no warner came before thee, that haply they may walk aright.

Shakir: Or do they say: He has forged it? Nay! it is the truth from your Lord that you may warn a people to whom no warner has come before you, that they may follow the right direction.

Quran 62.2:

Yusuf Ali: It is He Who has sent amongst the Unlettered a messenger from among themselves, to rehearse to them His Signs, to sanctify them, and to instruct them in Scripture and Wisdom,- although they had been, before, in manifest error;-

Pickthall: He it is Who hath sent among the unlettered ones a messenger of their own, to recite unto them His revelations and to make them grow, and to teach them the Scripture and wisdom, though heretofore they were indeed in error manifest,

Shakir: He it is Who raised among the inhabitants of Mecca a Messenger from among themselves, who recites to them His communications and purifies them, and teaches them the Book and the Wisdom, although they were before certainly in clear error,

Quran 65.11:

Yusuf Ali: A Messenger, who rehearses to you the Signs of Allah containing clear explanations, that he may lead forth those who believe and do righteous deeds from the depths of Darkness into Light. And those who believe in Allah and work righteousness, He will admit to Gardens beneath which Rivers flow, to dwell therein for ever: Allah has indeed granted for them a most excellent Provision.

PICKTHALL: A messenger reciting unto you the revelations of Allah made plain, that He may bring forth those who believe and do good works from darkness unto light. And whosoever believeth in Allah and doeth right, He will bring him into Gardens underneath which rivers flow, therein to abide for ever. Allah hath made good provision for him.

SHAKIR: A Messenger who recites to you the clear communications of Allah so that he may bring forth those who believe and do good deeds from darkness into light; and whoever believes in Allah and does good deeds, He will cause him to enter gardens beneath which rivers now, to abide therein forever, Allah has indeed given him a goodly sustenance.

From these verses, it is amply clear that role assigned to Muhammad by Allah is indeed that of a guide. Indeed, all the prophets including Muhammad were nothing but guide to people:

Quran 32.24

YUSUF ALI: And We appointed, from among them, leaders, giving guidance under Our command, so long as they persevered with patience and continued to have faith in Our Signs.

PICKTHALL: And when they became steadfast and believed firmly in Our revelations, We appointed from among them leaders who guided by Our command.

SHAKIR: And We made of them Imams to guide by Our command when they were patient, and they were certain of Our communications.

In conclusion, I must say that it is amazing to note how Allah manages to make a fool of Himself at every opportunity.

Quran 2.272: as shown is nothing more than a disclaimer and obfuscation on Mohammad's part...What he is saying is, 'don't blame me for not guiding correctly, that's not my job it's Allah's...'if you are mislead, it's Allah's fault not mine'...'So if you are in trouble, blame him not me'...I thought it was haram and a sin to 'blame' Allah for anything...That's a form of apostasy...Was Mohammad Islams first apostate?

There are some guys here who say there is no error in the Quran where are let them come here and clarify this one
written by Clement-Islam-Watch Pastor , March 06, 2012
Thank you very much author, I am wondering why there should be any contradiction at all in the Quran considering the fact that it is a book of one author, one prophet, one Angel, one Allah a product of one tribe the Arabs all located in nation Saudi Arabia, one town Mecca, one house Kaaba, One idol the Black stone all within 23 years revelation.

One will understand if it is the Bible that this apparent contradictions are noticed because the has 66 books, 40 authors, written in three languages, with many prophets, Kings, and rulers and Angels and messengers which spans over 2500 years in writing.

But this little book with only 114 chapters, a book that is just about the size of the book of Psalms in the Bible yet without intelligent transmission, chronology, full of errors and contractions. How came that such a book is being passed as a divine instructions to all humanity?

This is a great fraud.

There are no errors
written by Malem , March 06, 2012
Clement, your title asks for clarification on an error but I see none listed in your statements? Yes the Holy Quran has one author, Allah. The bible has many and even so does not contain all the books written, many were left out like the ones contained in the Gnostic writings. So when Allah sent his last messenger, he provided him divine messaging directly through an angel. One might conclude that Allah was not entirely happy with the original writings that men had tampered with so he provided a pure version.

As for the Surah verse on Guidance, there are two types of guidance discussed in the Holy Quran. Guidance of the Heart (only Allah gives guidance in the heart) and Guidance of the Proof of the Message of the Holy Quran (i.e. the messengers give the message and explain it that leads to the guidance that Allah puts in their hearts), subtle differences in these messages. The one line Duh plucks out has to do with Guidance of the Heart from Allah. You need to understand the role of the Prophet (Messenger) and the role of Allah before you can understand. If you would like soem websites than can help you in this effort please let me know.

Yes the Holy Quran has one author, Allah.

Supernatural beliefs Doctor? Just like in the Bible, God never said anything, Allah never authored anything...Everything in the way of scripture is authored by men...No disembodied god, angel, demon, jinn, spook, spirit, knew how to write or speak in Arabic...It is a well known fact that these entities speak ebonics...There was a time when when God disguised as a finger wrote some stuff on a wall for Moses to read, but it was not in Arabic...
I'm sorry, the Quran is all about Allah, but it was not authored by him...

This article under consideration outlined some apparent contradictions; Don't you think you need to clarify these few verses before going for your guardian principles?

"You need to understand the role of the Prophet (Messenger) and the role of Allah before you can understand."

What of if Allah, the prophet, and the Angel are the same person masquerading as different persons?

In the case of the Quran when you read it between lines you fine Mohammed speaking clearly but you still believe it was Allah or Angel Gabriel that was speaking. Do you want me to sight example? How can one get a correct guidance in this instance?

Mr Krishna
written by Muslim and proud , March 06, 2012
Namaste Mr Krishna,

You should maybe focus on the Vedas?

With regards to your article, It is so simple to refute that even a 10 year old Muslim can do it.

I will provide a detailed refutation later....for now, you can concentrate on the following:

1 - Allah (the exalted) revealed the Holy Qur'an to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)

2 - Angel Gibrail (as) revealed the Holy Qur'an to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)

Both statements are true and not a contradiction, however it was the will of Allah (the exalted), without which, Angel Gibrail (as) could not have done anything.

1 - Allah (the exalted) is the ultimate guide and guides whomsoever he wills - based on his own will and decision.
2 - Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) is the guide to those whom Allah (the exalted) has chosen to guide.

The ultimate "will" and "decision" remains with Allah (the exalted).

It is a shame you have made a fool of yourself.

"There was a time when when God disguised as a finger wrote some stuff on a wall for Moses to read, but it was not in Arabic... "

Yes you are right in the whole of the Bible it was only in the writing of the Ten commandment that God write directly on the Tahblet stone but for the rest of books it was by inspiration of fhe Spirit that the holy men of God were moved to write not recite as in the case of Quran.

The Quran was a recital not a book through out the period of Mohammed ministry which lasted for 23 years.
Which one is more credible a written document right from the horses mouth or recital which is capable of vanishing from the memorry in some seconds?

Can you see why there are so much contradictions in the Quran? Extradicting information from the old and dying men of Mohammed was not an easy task.

Contradictions
written by Gnostic , March 06, 2012
Is there anybody who has ever tried to write a book? I wrote some books and I know tjat It is not so easy. It is necessary to read it again and again in order to detect such errors and inconsistencies and to correct them. It does not matter what you write but the longer the text it becomes more and more difficult to keep what was written before.

If I read the quran carefully it is very obvious that this book was not written by ONE author but there were different sources were the authors took their texts from. Thats why Pharao died here while he was saved at the other olace. And there are many, many contradictions like the one mentioned in the article.

It think it maybe that Muhammad also contributed to the quran but there were other people as well, probably translators or consultants, then it seems that many texts were rearranged, by Uthman it seems, and maybe there was another guy who inserted typical quranic narrational elements such as "and Allah knows best".

And, not to forget, all this stupid stuff that the quran is not fake but true and that anybody who does not believe that will go to hell and this over and over again. And just consider all the clot-related stuff that at first humans were made from dirt, then from a clot, but hey, before it was sperm, gushed from the backbone and THEN it became a clot, then flesh and then a bone that was coated by flesh again!

This is called a REVEALATION! If this is from all knowing Allah, how stupid must the people be who believe in this???


To be honest, I think the quran is extremely boring, full of errors and contraditions and no publisher would publish this today because no educated man would accept such a nonsense and such a sloppily redacted text!

Both statements are true and not contradictory

However

It's no surprise to see that Mr Krishna is totally oblivious to any context.

So, in which case you're saying that basically when context is applied...

God approves all laws of Islam
Mohammad approves all laws of Islam

Both statements aren't contradictory.

and the clincher...

If I remember correctly the Queen doesn't make laws, the parliament makes the laws that the Queen approves.

So if I remembered correctly and based on the context you provided, God approves what Mohammad makes, no?

God is the final approver, and in the case of the real world example you give is basically a rubber-stamp process that virtually does not involve the Queen every minute. Nice example!

Mr. Krishna is certainly oblivious of your context.

Mohammed claim that is just a messenger just as him but not up to class of Mohammed who is seal of all prophet the great Lord of the throne. Let look at their score sheet and see who is greater

JESUS MUHAMMAD

1Jesus was born of a virgin. (Matthew 1:18-25) Muhammad was born of a normal woman. (Ibn Hisham pp. 68-69)
2.Jesus served God as a child. (Luke 2:39-52) Muhammad was and idolater (Sahih Bukhari vol.6, p. 452)

3. Jesus read the Bible. (Luke:16-21) Muhammad was illiterate. (Qur'an 7:156)

4. Jesus preached the gospel at God's command and lived on the donations of others. (Luke 4:16-21 and 8:1-3) Muhammad, without being commanded by God, began to steal from others and live on their goods. (Ibn Hisham pp. 281-)

5.Jesus performed miracles. (Mark 3:9-10) Muhammad could not perform miracles. (Qur'an 29:49)

6. Jesus made blind eyes see. (Luke 18:35-43 Muhammad made seeing eyes blind. (Sahih Bukhari vol. 8, p. 520)

8. Jesus healed withered hands. (Matthew 12:10-13) Muhammad cut off the hands of others. Sahih Bukhari vol.8, p. 520)

9. Jesus raised the dead. (John 11:1-45) Muhammad had the living killed. Ibn Hisham p. 308)

10. Jesus forgave his opponents. (Luke 23:43 Muhammad had his opponents murdered. (Sahih Bukhari vol. 5, pp. 248-)
11. Jesus set the condemned free. (John 8:1-11) Muhammad condemned the free and led them into slavery. (Ibn Hisham p. 466)
12 Jesus preached in God's chosen temple. (Luke 20:1) Muhammad prayed at the Ka'ba when it still contained hundreds of idols. (Sahih Bukari vol. 1, p. 151)

Melen let continue with the comparism
written by Clement-Islam- Watch Pastor , March 07, 2012
15Jesus gave Himself as a sacrifice for all mankind. (John 1:29 and 10:18) Muhammad died unexpectedly of illness (which he himself said was due to a poisoning attempt). (Sahih Bukhari vol. 5, p. 510)

16. Jesus rose from the dead on the third day after His death, and later ascended into heaven. (Luke 23 and 24)Muhammad was buried in Medina on the third day after his death. His tomb is visited by pilgrims each year. (al-Tabari vol. 9, p. 208)

17 Jesus is God's Word and God Himself. (John 1:1, 14)

18. Jesus taught that one man one wife until
Do them part Mat 19:5,6

19. Jesus taught men to love their wives as themselves, treating them with care
Mat19:5,Eph 5:25


20. Jesus taught that men should not render evil for evil, but forgiving and pray for the enemy

21.Jesus taught men not to swear for any reason. Let your yes be yes and no be no.

22. Jesus taught men to relate to God in a father children relationship when we pray and not as slaves or servants no bowing like the idol worship fashion. Ex 20:4

23.Jesus fixed his eyes on the glory to that will be revealed endure the cross and its shame in order to pay the price of our redemption.


24. Jesus died praying and blessing his enemies Muhammad was only a warner. (Qur'an 29:49)

Mohammed that one man four wives excluding concubines and slave girls until they are no longer useful to man, man can divorce at any time for any reason by just saying I divorce you 3times
Mohammed taught men to beat their wives and threat them as domestic animal good only for breeding, they have half IQ of a man and are stupid, they have half inheritance of a man and a woman’s witness is half that of a man in a law court.


Mohammed taught eye for eye, and retaliation as good virtues

Mohammed taught men to swear by Allah and anything . He swore by Allah and moon and star. Even Allah swore by moon and stars one wonders who was the god among them.Q74:32,81:15-

Mohammed taught that men should relate to Allah as slaves and servants doing the ass up five times daily as prayers. Can you imagine your child doing the ass up before you before you can meet his needs?

Mohammed fixed his eyes on Kaaba the house of idols a business heritage of the kuyrash the tribe of Mohammed and could not endure any humiliation until he mobilized an army to take it by force and made it an international business under the guise of holy pilgrimage.


Mohammed died cursing his supposed enemies the Jews and Christians.

25. Jesus resurrected from the dead and he lives! His Tomb empty, In his name miracle s and wonders are performed, souls are saved in his name alone. Muhammad is dead. He never resurrected His tomb full of bones but his name are recited five times daily in prayers but no answer or any sign and wonders, no soul is saved in his name except to die if you reject him.

The Quran is not clear
written by Gnostic , March 08, 2012
The quran is contradictious everywhere and obscure. The result is that muslims again and again cannot achieve unity about the interpretation which leads to disorientation d anger and even conflicts among muslims. Rulers have an easy job to pay corrupt scribes for fatwas that please them in order to stay in power. In fact god becomes the scapegoat for everything such as the mistakes of the ruler. Look at Syria! The recently newly introduced constitution declares that islam is the root behind any law. Any criminal can pretend to be what is considered to be a good muslim. But islam is not the solution, it is the problem. It does not help at all but it makes things more difficult.

Good article. It clearly exposes that Quran is a fabrication to satisfy the humger for political power and lechery and criminal tendencies like plunder,masacre ,slave-running, pedophilia,fornication,sodomy,etc at which Muhamad excelled . Islam is an elaborate fraud with criminal intent ,creating zombies under extreme coercion by the fanatic zealots who only want to create an immoral dispensation filled with hatred, intolerance and violence against those who do not submit to this uncouth barbarianisms.It is a racist cult that places arabs at the top with turks and iranians just behind while others are required to submit to the supremacy of the arabs,turks and iranians. Quran is not book of any good moral or philosophy ,but a criminal manual with extremely violent intent flouting basic human rights, child rights and freedom of conscience , in favour of zombie-type existence.

"Your father, Mr Khan, who is the editor of this site, did not know that Zakaat is obligatory."

If you study your scriptures very well you will discover that Zakaat has pagan root as well. Is not as if is a new obligation in new religion of Islam. There is nothing in Islam that has no paganism or historically link with the idolatrous practices before Mohammed.



However, Zaakat appear to be the only obligation that that has human face. That is if given to poor is the main purpose as defined by muslim today. I Mohammed used it enrich himself during the his time. 20% of the booty went to him and his pupet Allah.

At any case if I am to pick anything of Islam now that human can benefit from may be is this so call Zaakat.

Mr Khan, I do applaud your editorial control of the site and trying to keep the name calilng and senseless banter to a minimum, but will you be applying this equally across all posters? Seems to me there is one poster who I will let you determine, that has not replied in any post in the last week without using name calling to me. I refrain from such behavior as it does nothing to add to the discussion.

Duh - I must ask what is this ongoing need to refer to men as "sweet boy" "sweet doctor" "precious", seems quite odd from a perspective of two people jsut talking to each other doesnt it? I know that some men do refer to their wives/loves in that respect but this is the first time I have seen one man calling another that name.

In regards to Zakaat - The Holy Quran does not "state" that Zakaat is obligatory, however the general feeling is one should give to the poor as way of helping thy brothers/sisters

In the Holy Quran here is what it says "...... guiding by Our Command, and sent them inspiration to do good deeds, to establish regular prayers, and to practise regular charity; and they constantly served Us.." also "But squander not in the manner of a spendthrift." "The charity you give shall go to the parents, the relatives, the orphans, the poor, and the traveling alien" a few other mentions of charity. There is no place in the Holan Quran that states Zakaat is olbligatory.

Please check 9:60 - here it is

(9:60) As a matter of fact, Zakat collections are only for the needy and the indigent, and for those who are employed to collect them and for those whose hearts are to be won over and for the ransoming of slaves and for helping the debtors and for the way of Allah and for the hospitality of the wayfarers. This is an obligatory duty from Allah: and Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise.

Wa Alaikum Al Salam Bro
"Alms are for the poor and the needy, and those employed to administer the funds; for those whose hearts have been reconciled ; for those in bondage and in debt; in the cause of Allah; and for the wayfarer: ORDAINED by Allah, and Allah is full of knowledge and wisdom" or another way to read it is The charities are to go to the poor, the needy, those who work on their collection, those whose hearts are to be reconciled, free the slaves, those in debt, in the cause of God, and to the wayfarer. A duty from God; God is Knowledgeable, Wise.

Now that being said, it clearly indicates that Charity or Alms be directed to certain people, and earlier in the Quran it defines Charity/Alms/Zakaat as excess of what you have, not a percentage of what you have( 2.5% etc..). The Quran teaches us not to squander our wealth but rather it is out duty to help others not as fortunate.

That is much different than saying every week you have to pay 2.5% of your check to Zakaat, no matter what you make, what you need etc...that is not what it says.

The bigger pitcure is not whether you feel the your are obliged, it is your duty, or it is ordained by Allah, it is that it is done period. To give to others in the way of money, time, labor etc.. are all part of Zakaat. Getting wrapped up in a percentage % is the game of satan to distract you.

If you park the amount/% etc for a moment and think about the principal - I.e. Zakaat, then this is a duty ordained by Allah (the exalted) for those who are capable to do so. It is a requirement as a muslim to pay Zakaat - it is not a voluntary duty - it is obligatorycompulsory as per the command in the Noble Qur'an.

The writing on the wall

"There was a time when when God disguised as a finger wrote some stuff on a wall for Moses to read, but it was not in Arabic... "

To Duh and Pastor

Perhaps duh was referring to the prophesy made concerning the fall of Babylon (Hebrew bab, meaning gate, and alion, meaning of the god - Marduk, Muhammad's allah)

YHVH sent an angel disquised as a hand to write this message on the wall of a
Babylonian place where the king Bel Shazzar was having a feast:

MENE MENE TEKEL UPHAR SIN

And the Prophet of YHVH, Daniel (Book of Daniel, Chapter 5) gave the meaning:

YHVH has numbered thy kingdom, and finished it. Thou art weighed in the balances and art found wanting. Thy kingdom is divided and given to the Medes and Persians.

Quran

It was written in Arabic, actually an older version of the modern Arabic(s) spoken/written today because that was the language of the messenger. The Bible has taken even a more winding route from Hebrew to Greek with some Aramaic inserted to Latin and onto other languages. To this day they have found various meanings slightly changed from the original. Arabic can be different in Saudi vs Egypt versus Mahgreb vs Levant etc. so careful and knowledgeable effort must be taken to read it and more importantly comprehend it. Do transliterations have their place, yes, but when you are trying to pick apart a certain word etc.. like many times on this blog it is important to understand the context and mean of the entire surah as well

It would be best to actually know the original language of the Quran ,or any other ancient book for that matter. Words change in meaning over time ,and this makes things harder. Now to say that an English translation of the Quran is completely useless I would disagree. Basic meaning can be retained through translation. I don't have a problem with someone saying that an English translation of the Quran isn't the same as an Arabic one ,but I do have a problem when they say the translation is completely useless and should be ignored.

@ vbv
Just in case you see this I wanted to answer one of your questions I didn't get to answer earlier. You were saying that George Bernard Shaws was a great atheist thinker. I pointed out that he wasn't such a good guy ,and was for gas chambers. you asked who did he want in the gas chambers. It comes down to one word "unfit". This of course means different things to different people. To Hitler it meant anybody from the elderly and disable ,to his personal favorite enemy the Jews. Look at one of your own sources wikipedia ,and look at what it says under the category Eugenics for G.B. Shaws page.

The Quran itself claims to be clear. If its clear in Arabic then it can be understood. If it can be understood it can be translated in any language including English. To be on the safe side I quoted THREE TRANSLATIONS. If this doesn't satisfy you, I don't know what will.
Further, the verses I quoted didn't have high flying meanings. They are simple and easy. One says that Muhammad should guide, the other says he shouldn't. The contradiction is so clear that even further explainations aren't needed.

I don't understand why people think that Genesis 1 ,and Genesis 2 are entirely different accounts(they both have to do with creation).

Contradiction!!
written by RW , March 14, 2012
Dear Ram. You write “Allah said Muhammad was sent for guiding people to Islam; He also said, Muhammad was not to guide”. And you wish to analyze the role of Muhammad, apostle, in the light of Quran. For this purpose you have quoted various English translations of Quran verses 2:272, 13:7: 28:56, 32:3, 62:2, 65:11 and 32:24.
On reading text of respective translations you will observe that there is no ‘OMuhammad’ anywhere. Quran is addressed to humanity, to you and me, and this ‘OMuhammad’ is from the translator. He ((translator) knows it that’s why he uses brackets. Quran has no brackets. On eliminating ‘OMuhammad’, most of doubts will vanish.
Quran reader is clear that God does not share his authority with any (18:26):
َبْصِرْ بِهِ وَأَسْمِعْ ۚ مَا لَهُم مِّن دُونِهِ مِن وَلِيٍّ وَلَا يُشْرِكُ فِي حُكْمِهِ أَحَدًا
It is also clear that the Messengers of God are not more than messengers and they don’t teach and guide on their own right. It is the message they bring forth that guides. They knew their limits and were reminded their size. The verses quoted by you also endorse this. By ‘you cannot guide’ he means that there are principles formulated by God for that.
Quran clears it time and again that it is none god who is to be followed:
“Ask them, "Can any of your associates of God guide you to the Truth?" Say, "Only God guides to the Truth." Is the one who guides to the Truth a proper guide or one who himself cannot find guidance unless he is guided? What is wrong with you that you judge so unjustly? 10:35
Here “or one who himself cannot find guidance unless he is guided” includes all the apostles including apostles Jesus /Muhammad.

[Mr Krishna,

You should maybe focus on the Vedas?

With regards to your article, It is so simple to refute that even a 10 year old Muslim can do it.

I will provide a detailed refutation later....for now, you can concentrate on the following:

1 - Allah (the exalted) revealed the Holy Qur'an to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)

2 - Angel Gibrail (as) revealed the Holy Qur'an to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)

Both statements are true and not a contradiction, however it was the will of Allah (the exalted), without which, Angel Gibrail (as) could not have done anything.

1 - Allah (the exalted) is the ultimate guide and guides whomsoever he wills - based on his own will and decision.
2 - Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) is the guide to those whom Allah (the exalted) has chosen to guide.

The ultimate "will" and "decision" remains with Allah (the exalted).
/quote]
Regarding your first example: Revelation by Allah and Gibrail, consider this: if only these two statements were mentioned without any explainations, then they would surely contradict. They are not considered as contradictions because explainations are available in Quran and Sunnah. Allah allegedly revealed the Quran to Muhammad through Gibrael.
Now coming to your second example: your statement- "2 - Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) is the guide to those whom Allah (the exalted) has chosen to guide."....contradicts Q13:7 which states that M was a guide to all. Further, let us put this statement of yours to test. Kindly show us a verse from Quran where Allah says: O Muhammad guide so and so because I have chosen to guide them and don't guide so and so because I have denied them guidance.
Indeed on the contrary, Quran is rife with passages where Muhammad did attempt to warn/guide kafirs (who rejected him). So to whom he will be a guide and to whom he will not be?

1. Muhammad is a guide to all.
2. Guiding is not the duty of Muhammad.
is contradictory.
Further, does posting some apparent contadictions somehow prove that the contradiction under discussion is also apparent?

You write "According to Muslims the original, one and only Quran resides in Heaven with Allah." This should not be basis of your logic.

And then, my basis of logic should be what RW?

Yes indeed RW, there was some frustration about the sheer number of Wilson posts, that I noted on several occasions, because your Islam is not the Islam that Islam-Watch was created to watch...So most of your comments were only distractions from the 'other Islam'...But in your defense, you may be deluded in your beliefs, in my opinion, but you are always a gentleman, which is not the case with the buffoons currently representing the 'other Islam' here now...Except for Malman, they are heavy into hadis and sharia...I think they could use your guidence along those lines...Anyway Reed, I'm happy you are still alive...I wondered for a while...

The fact of the matter is this:

All guidance is from allah (the exalted)

Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) is a guide, by the will of Allah (the exalted) and through the guidance of Allah (the exalted).

None of the verses you quoted prove in any way that there is a contradiciton:

2:272, 13:7 & 28:56 are evidence that Allah (the exalted) is THE Guide - all guidance is from Allah (the exalted)

The remaining verses are evidence that Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was sent by Allah (the exalted) to guide the people (with guidance from Allah (the exalted))

Think of it like this:

A man who is deaf is being guided by a person who knows sign language. They are both lost. A third person is available to help and can guige the one who knows sign language, in order to guide the deaf person.

The source of guidance is the person who is helping the deaf person and his guide.

2 people are in this scenario are the guide. One is the man who is guiding the deaf person.........following the guidance received from the person guiding the 'guide' to the deaf person.

It's as simple as that.

Thanks.You ask "And then, my basis of logic should be what RW?

Muslims, the so called Muslims, have variety of belief. We, you and me, agreed several times that Quran is the chief source of Islam. You can very well cite from it. Your argument would be strong.

There are around 160 places in Quran where Quran as book is discussed. I restrict to following two:

َالْكِتَابِ الْمُبِينِ ﴿٢﴾ إِنَّا جَعَلْنَاهُ قُرْآنًا عَرَبِيًّا لَّعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ ﴿٣﴾ وَإِنَّهُ فِي أُمِّ الْكِتَابِ لَدَيْنَا لَعَلِيٌّ حَكِيمٌ

"By the clear Book, Indeed, We have made it an Arabic Qur'an that you might understand. And indeed it is, in the Mother of the Book with Us, exalted and full of wisdom".43:2-4

فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِمَوَاقِعِ النُّجُومِ ﴿٧٥﴾ وَإِنَّهُ لَقَسَمٌ لَّوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عَظِيمٌ
ِنَّهُ لَقُرْآنٌ كَرِيمٌ ﴿٧٧﴾ فِي كِتَابٍ مَّكْنُونٍ ﴿٧٨﴾ لَّا يَمَسُّهُ إِلَّا الْمُطَهَّرُونَ

"Indeed, this is an honorable Quran preserved in a hidden Book which no one can touch it there except the purified ones". 56:77-79

You are correct to much extent that Quran is subset of a greater documentation preserved with Allah. But the source 'according to muslims' does not suit you.

(I feel like quoting remaining about 158):--

I am sorry I mentioned your old post. I didnt mean a complaint or for an explanation from you. I always enjoyed your wits.

"Anyway Reed, I'm happy you are still alive". But that should not mean I tease people.

Well, you do know RW that I put no stock or faith in anything the Quran says...I am much more interested in Muslim behavior that is shaped by it...

That the original Quran resides with Allah, is not my idea...It is the idea of many of your Muslim semi-brothers...

"By the clear Book, Indeed, We have made it an Arabic Qur'an that you might understand. And indeed it is, in the Mother of the Book with Us, exalted and full of wisdom".43:2-4

The Quran is not all that clear...many people who do read and write Arabic do not come to the same conclusions about it...That particular verse is the book justifying the book...I don't let Christians get away with that about Bible, so I'm certainly not going to give the Quran a pass...

Quoting the other 158, all from the same self congratulatory source, does not strengthen the case...I can yell 'fake' 160 times...does that convince you of anything?

Aasma Riaz: "Thank you so much for your book "Islamic Jihad" and showing me the "Big Picture". For 7-8 days, I was glued to your book, absorbing so much information that I did not know existed. You have crisply covered so much in your book and quoted historical references extensively. I am just overwhelmed with different emotions after reading your book..., a priceless tome."
