Divine Morality On Trial: The Killing Of The Innocent Child In The Quran
Thank you, but I said: I claim to be a prophet, just like Khizar. But I understand your point, Sir. I need to prove my prophethood—only then will there be no objection. How is prophethood proven? Either through miracles, or by reading the revealed text and feeling in our hearts that it must be from God—because no human could possess such knowledge beforehand. Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) did not perform any miracles, so we are left with the text. Yet even in Surah Qalam, in second surah according to chronological order, we find a degree of extremism. But Ghamidi Sahab says: to criticize a religion, we must first accept it as the word of God. Then how can you ask me to prove my prophethood, when you yourself follow the principle that one must first accept a religion before criticizing it? So, by your own rule, you must first accept me as a prophet. And if I were to take an innocent life, you would have no right to criticize me—because you apply these two principles to the Qur’an and to the Prophet (PBUH). If you refuse to apply the same to me, then that is a double standard.
