Why Did Allah Allow People Of The Book To Corrupt Crucial Details?
“The ayahs r definitely talking about jewsand Christians of all times. All jews and Christians can identify Muhammad SAW.” I don’t think Ghamidi Sahab agrees with you on this. He always stated that the audience of the Qur’an are those present in front of it, that’s why Allah punished those Jews and Christians only and not their descendants. “They rejected gospel of Baranabs, they would’ve rejected the name of Muhammad SAW as well either calling it an addition by Muslims when they occupied Christian lands or something else.” Barnabas has many issues, foremost that it rejects Jesus being the Messiah (yet Qur’an calls him Messiah) and foretells the Prophet (PBUH) by the name of “Muhammad”, not “Ahmad.” Qur’an claims the name was supposed to be “Ahmad” according to verse 61:6. “There r prophecies in the Bible today about Muhammad SAW still in the Bible and yet they r ignored” They are sadly vague though, a lot of rooms for Jews and Christians to explain that they do not refer to Prophet (PBUH) henceforth an exact name like “Ahmad” could easily fix this. Regarding Ismael AS lineage, Jesus AS lineage is defined in the Bible, did Jews believed him? His lineage in the Bible is not good enough since the Messiah is supposed to be a descendant of David (AS) through Joseph (Mary’s (AS) Husband) but since we know Jesus (AS) was born from a virgin, he doesn’t have the right blood to be the Messiah, being a descendant of Aaron (AS) (as Qur’an refers to Mary (AS) as relative of Aaron (AS) in Qur’an 19:28) so modern Jews rejected him. Also it is strange to assume that Jews at the time of Jesus (AS) would believe him due to this lineage, they weren’t exactly carrying a lineage of him at the time, the lineage we have defined in the Bible was written years after his death and still manage to not connect to David (AS) as Jews required for their Messiah. This is your assumption that Christian aren’t believing because they can’t find Muhammad SAW name or Ismael AS lineage is not established neither it is necessary for itmam e hujjat at all But why would Qur’an mention the name then? Would have been better to not mention “Ahmad” in the Qur’an either right? Even, for the sake of argument, if we assume that the name was actually removed, It is not just an assumption, Ghamidi Sahab claims it was changed. You can look up Al-Bayan on Qur’an 61:6 for details. isn’t it the case for Quran too? There a so many sects that change the translation acc to their beliefs and people read it and have false beliefs even shirk. Would u say that Allah shouldn’t allow people to translate Quran wrong ? Not every Muslim have the means or time to learn arabic so how do they get to the truth? If Qur’an contained an important prophecy for an upcoming prophet and that was our means to identifying that prophet then yes, I don’t think Allah should let us falsely translate the Qur’an nor let us corrupt it. But thankfully, there is no burden of a future prophet upon us nor did Allah allow corruption of Qur’an. In fact the main prophecies and concept were not allowed to be corrupted by Allah that now we can refer back to the Qur’an and realize where we went astray should any sect goes astray. This is not as clear cut with the Bible though which is a mess upon mess, it was not preserved despite supposed to be a means to identifying Prophet (PBUH).
