Judaism v. Islam

I hope it is fruitful. Fact 1: The Koran states that the Torah, Bible and Koran are from God! We gave Moses the Book and followed him up with a succession of apostles; we gave Jesus the son of Mary clear (Signs) and strengthened him with the Holy Spirit. It is that whenever there comes to you an apostle with what ye yourselves desire not, ye are puffed up with pride? —Some ye called imposters, and others ye slay! –Koran 8:87 Now, here come my first questions in cross examination: Is the Torah from G-d? If so, did you know that G-d said in the Torah he would preserve His Word? If it is corrupt, doesn’t that make G-d a liar? Rejected were the messengers before thee: with patience and constancy they bore their rejection and their wrongs, until the Our aid did reach them: there is none that can alter the words (and decrees) of Allah. Already hast thou received some account for those messengers. (6:34 The word of thy Lord doth find its fulfillment in truth and in justice: NONE CAN CHANGE HIS WORDS: for He is the one who heareth and knoweth all (6:115 For them are glad tidings, in the life of the present and in the Hereafter; no change can there be in the words of Allah. This is indeed the supreme felicity. (10:64) These verses are clear. You cannot add or change the words of Allah. This leads me to my next set of cross examination: The Torah says that G-d promised to preserve his word. Did he break that promise? Why does Allah need 3 revelations? Does the Koran really mean that the Torah and Bible are from G-d? Fact 2: The Koran is WRONG in the formation of sperms! "Now let man but think from what he is created! He is created from a drop emitted-Proceeding from between the backbone and the ribs," (Qur'an 86:5-7). At first reading of this Qur'anic verse, it is obvious that the error is that sperm comes from a man's chest. After all, the chest is "between the backbone and the ribs"? The abdomen is below the backbone and ribs, and the male testicles are far below that. This error is important because in Islam, if one thing in the Qur'an is false, then Islam is false. In Islam the Qur'an was supposedly transmitted directly to Muhammad from God through the angel Gabriel. Therefore, it cannot have even a single mistake. But, as you can see, it does. A drop The verse says that it is the "drop" that is emitted from the chest area. It is not referencing the testicles that descend from the abdominal area (not the chest). In addition, by definition, a drop is a small quantity of liquid that is separated from a larger body of liquid. Gravity acts upon it and it drops; hence, the term "drop". Drops are not in the human body. They are outside of it. Human blood flowing through the veins is not in drops, neither is the seminal fluid, which is emitted from the prostate, in drops. It is the seminal fluid that carries the sperm from the testicles as it exits the body that then forms drops. Therefore, what the Qur'anic verse is talking about is not the testicles, but the seminal fluid and sperm mixture that has left the body during sexual intercourse. It is the drop that the Qur'an says is formed from "between the backbone and the ribs. " This is an obvious and blatant error. Where do testicles form? "The testicle originally forms in the back of the abdominal cavity, similar to the position of the ovaries in girls. Near the end of pregnancy, the testis begins to descend to the scrotum. "The testicles begin inside the abdominal cavity. " At seven months, "The testicles begin to move down from the abdomen into the scrotum. ” "Normal testicular development begins at conception and the testicles first appear in the abdomen at about the level of the kidneys. ” Even if it can be surmised that the testicles were formed in embryonic development in the very lower part of the chest area, it still does not solve the problem wherein the Qur'an states that man is formed from the drop that is emitted from between the backbones and the ribs. The drop, the liquid, is not formed in embryonic development and does not begin such development until the testicles begin to mature. This occurs after the birth of the baby and after the testicles has descended out of the body. Conclusion: The Koran is wrong. Source: 1.

Fact 3: The Koran CONTRADICTS itself! What was man created from, blood, clay, dust, or nothing? "Created man, out of a (mere) clot of congealed blood," (96:2). "We created man from sounding clay, from mud moulded into shape, (15:26). "The similitude of Jesus before Allah is as that of Adam; He created him from dust, then said to him: "Be". And he was," (3:59). "But does not man call to mind that We created him before out of nothing? " (19:67, Yusuf Ali). Also, 52:35). "He has created man from a sperm-drop; and behold this same (man) becomes an open disputer! (16:4). Does Allah forgive or not forgive those who worship false gods? Allah forgives not that partners should be set up with Him; but He forgives anything else, to whom He pleases; to set up partners with Allah is to devise a sin Most heinous indeed," (4:48). Also 4:116 The people of the Book ask thee to cause a book to descend to them from heaven: Indeed they asked Moses for an even greater (miracle), for they said: "Show us Allah in public," but they were dazed for their presumption, with thunder and lightning. Yet they worshipped the calf even after clear signs had come to them; even so we forgave them; and gave Moses manifest proofs of authority," (4:153). Are Allah's decrees changed or not? "Rejected were the messengers before thee: with patience and constancy they bore their rejection and their wrongs, until Our aid did reach them: there is none that can alter the words (and decrees) of Allah. Already hast thou received some account of those messengers," (6:34). "The word of thy Lord doth find its fulfillment in truth and in justice: None can change His words: for He is the one who hears and knows all, (6:115). None of Our revelations do We abrogate or cause to be forgotten, but We substitute something better or similar: Know thou not that Allah Hath power over all things? " (2:106). When We substitute one revelation for another,- and Allah knows best what He reveals (in stages),- they say, "Thou art but a forger": but most of them understand not," (16:101). Cross Examination The Qur'an says, "O ye who believe! Turn unto Allah in sincere repentance! It may be that your Lord will remit from you your evil deeds and bring you into Gardens underneath which rivers flow, on the day when Allah will not abase the Prophet and those who believe with him. Their light will run before them and on their right hands; they will say: Our Lord! Perfect our light for us, and forgive us! Lo! Thou art Able to do all things," (66:8-9). Notice how it says if you are sincere you may receive forgiveness. Question: How do you know you are sincere enough to be forgiven of Allah? Question: Does it give you peace to know that even if you are very sincere then, at best, you may receive forgiveness? Question: If you say that you know you are sincere enough in your repentance before Allah, how do you know you are not deceiving yourself? Question: Is your heart really good enough to muster enough sincerity before a Holy and Righteous God? Question: If you say yes, I honestly and humbly ask you "Are you being prideful? " Question: If you say you are not being prideful, then are you boasting in your sincerity?
