. The inerrant Koran???
Contrary evidence is apparent.
EXAMPLE #1
Moslems in this age, make the claim that the Jewish Old Testament Bible, and the New Testament, are corrupted scriptures. And yet, surprise, surprise, moslems also make the claim that the Koran is pristine and miraculously inerrant [without error]. /sarc off
And yet, and yet, and yet; Within the 'inerrant' Koran, in many places, it is declared that 'the Law (of Moses) and the Gospel (of Jesus)', were revealed, and sent to Moses and Jesus, by Allah. And many 'inerrant' Koran verses actually venerate the Jewish O.T. Bible, and the New Testament scriptures, as clearly being authentic scriptures.
i.e. At that time, when the Koran was being revealed to Mohammed, Allah declares [within the 'inerrant' Koran] that the Jewish O.T. Bible, and the New Testament scriptures, are authentic scriptures!!
And the Koran states very clearly, that those scriptures which had 'come before', to Moses and Jesus, had actually been protected by Allah! ..., 'confirming the scripture that came before it [i.e. before the Koran], and guarding it in safety' .
Yet today, moslems [contradicting the contents of the 'inerrant' Koran!!] dare to declare that the Jewish Old Testament Bible, and the New Testament, are corrupted scriptures!
How can this be discrepancy be explained? This discrepancy is explained simply, as the mendacity of moslem scholars, wishing to denigrate and disparage, Judaism, and Christianity, in an attempt to deprive Judaism, and Christianity of their theological legitimacy.
2 Q's
Q1. Don't these Koran verses [below] contradict the claims made by moslems of this age, that the Jewish O.T. Bible, and the New Testament scriptures, were, or have been, corrupted by Jews, and Christians?
Q2. For if.....as moslems maintain, the Jewish O.T. Bible, and the New Testament scriptures were corrupted, by Jews, and Christians, where are the AUTHENTIC copies of these scriptures, which moslems themselves clearly venerated, as [their own] originating foundation documents state and declare?
+++ Here are some of the Koran verses, which refer to, 'the Law (of Moses) and the Gospel (of Jesus)'...
"Allah! There is no god but He,-the Living, the Self-Subsisting, Eternal. It is He Who sent down to thee (step by step), in truth, the Book, confirming what went before it; and He sent down the Law (of Moses) and the Gospel (of Jesus) before this, as a guide to mankind, and He sent down the criterion (of judgment between right and wrong)." Koran 3.2-3
"And in their footsteps We sent Jesus the son of Mary, confirming the Law that had come before him: We sent him the Gospel: therein was guidance and light, and confirmation of the Law that had come before him: a guidance and an admonition to those who fear Allah. Let the people of the Gospel judge by what Allah hath revealed therein...... To thee We sent the Scripture in truth, confirming the scripture that came before it, and guarding it in safety:......." Koran 5.46-48
"If only they had stood fast by the Law, the Gospel, and all the revelation that was sent to them from their Lord, they would have enjoyed happiness from every side.........Those who believe (in the Qur'an), those who follow the Jewish (scriptures), and the Sabians and the Christians,- any who believe in Allah and the Last Day, and work righteousness,- on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve." Koran 5.66-69 n.b. In the above quote, note the use of the present tense, 'who follow'.
"Then, in their wake, We followed them up with (others of) Our messengers: We sent after them Jesus the son of Mary, and bestowed on him the Gospel;....." Koran 57.27
"A group of Jews came and invited the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) to Quff. So he visited them in their school. They said: AbulQasim, one of our men has committed fornication with a woman; so pronounce judgment upon them. They placed a cushion for the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) who sat on it and said: Bring the Torah. It was then brought. He then withdrew the cushion from beneath him and placed the Torah on it saying: I believed in thee and in Him Who revealed thee." hadith/abudawud/ #038.4434 i.e. The Hadith declares, that Mohammed revered a clearly UNCORRUPTED Torah, which Mohammed held in his hands. n.b. "....I [Mohammed] believed in thee [the Torah] and in Him Who revealed thee. " see also, hadith/bukhari/ #008.082.809 hadith/muwatta/ #041.41.1.1
A PROPOSITION OF LOGIC; To believe the moslem assertion, made today, that the Jewish O.T. Bible, and the New Testament scriptures have been corrupted, by Jews, and Christians, you have to believe that not one uncorrupted copy of either text survived [i.e. within a single moslem jurisdiction].
How likely is that, when ISLAMIC texts themselves, clearly state that these scriptures ['the Law (of Moses) and the Gospel (of Jesus)'], were protected by Allah, and venerated by Mohammed?
