Quranic trinity

Quranic boasting Sura 46 IN THE NAME OF THE MOST MERCIFUL GOD. (1) H. M. The revelation of this book is from the mighty, the wise God. (2) We have not created the heavens and the earth, and whatever is between them, otherwise than in truth and for a determined period; but the unbelievers turn away from the warning which is given them. (3) Say, What think ye? Show me what part of the earth the idols which ye invoke, besides God, have created? Or had they any share in the creation of the heavens? Bring me a book of scripture revealed before this, or some footstep of ancient knowledge, to countenance your idolatrous practices; if ye are men of veracity. (4) Who is in a wider error than he who invoketh, besides God, that which cannot return him an answer, to the day of resurrection; and idols which regard not their calling on them; Sura 55 IN THE NAME OF THE MOST MERCIFUL GOD. (1) The Merciful hath taught his servant the Qurán. (2) He created man; (3) he hath taught him distinct speec...

Quranic salvation by murderous works

How very different is the true biblical God. Sura 2  190 Fight in the way of Allah against those who fight against you, but begin not hostilities. Lo! Allah loveth not aggressors. 191 And slay them wherever ye find them, and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out, for persecution is worse than slaughter. And fight not with them at the Inviolable Place of Worship until they first attack you there, but if they attack you (there) then slay them. Such is the reward of disbelievers. 192 But if they desist, then lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. 193 And fight them until persecution is no more, and religion is for Allah. But if they desist, then let there be no hostility except against wrong-doers. 244 Fight in the way of Allah, and know that Allah is Hearer, Knower. Sura 9   19 Count ye the slaking of a pilgrim's thirst and tendance of the Inviolable Place of Worship as (equal to the worth of) him who believeth in Allah and the Last Day, and striveth in the way of Al...

Allah's pointless true nature

It's destruction and more destruction and just more destruction. Every township including Muslim townships will be destroyed or punished before the Day of Resurrection S17(60). When the Quran describes Allah as merciful, it's obviously lying. Utter pointlessness of Islam ! Sura 6 (6) Do they not consider how many generations we have destroyed before them? We had established them in the earth in a manner wherein we have not established you; we sent the heaven to rain abundantly upon them, and we gave them rivers which flowed under their feet: yet we destroyed them in their sins, and raised up other generations after them. (130) O company of genii and men, did not messengers from among yourselves come unto you, rehearsing my signs unto you, and forewarning you of the meeting of this your day? They shall answer, We bear witness against ourselves: the present life deceived them: and they shall bear witness against themselves that they were  unbelievers. (131) This hath been...

Ungracious fear mongering Allah

Ungracious Fear Mongering Allah  Allah is called most gracious and most merciful in the quran. The following text is positive proof that Allah is just made up. Which god would be gracious and yet recommend such violence?  Some fear mongering verses are underlined and notice that the muslims are also under threat of violence.   That Muhammad is the God-partner of Allah is highlighted in bold and italics.    Jesus said that he who is without sin should take action. The word "Allah" was familiar to Muhammad and to all that he spoke to. There is nil record of any protest that this "Allah " was some new unknown god. There is record of people worshipping many gods. Allah was obviously one of them. Muhammed was charged by those who heard him of being possessed and mad and of forgery. He also had an unsatisfiable lust for sex. These so called revelations were designed to prevent anyone else from having sex with his harem, while he made sure he had them all. Allah wa...

God of the people of the Book

Sura 29 and the book of Hebrews Note- I have quoted 4 translations to show consistency. The Quran states that the God of the Jews and the Christians and the Islamic Allah is the same God. It also says that the Muslims believe the Bible. Both statements are outright lies because the Quran is a complete contradiction to the Bible. Sura 29 46 And argue not with the People of the Scripture unless it be in (a way) that is better, save with such of them as do wrong; and say: We believe in that which hath been revealed unto us and revealed unto you; our God and your God is One, and unto Him we surrender. 47 In like manner We have revealed unto thee the Scripture, and those unto whom We gave the Scripture aforetime will believe therein; and of these (also) there are some who believe therein. And none deny Our revelations save the disbelievers.  (Pickthall)  https://archive.sacred-texts.com/isl/pick/029.htm Dispute not, unless in kindly sort, with the people of the Book; 12 save with...

LIMITED TIME OR ETERNITY IN HELL

A Term Sura 3 145 No soul can ever die except by Allah's leave and at a term appointed. Whoso desireth the reward of the world, We bestow on him thereof; and whoso desireth the reward of the Hereafter, We bestow on him thereof. We shall reward the thankful. Sura 6 2 He it is Who hath created you from clay, and hath decreed a term for you. A term is fixed with Him. Yet still ye doubt! 60 He it is Who gathereth you at night and knoweth that which ye commit by day. Then He raiseth you again to life therein, that the term appointed (for you) may be accomplished. And afterward unto Him is your return. Then He will proclaim unto you what ye used to do. 67 For every announcement there is a term, and ye will come to know. 70 And forsake those who take their religion for a pastime and a jest, and whom the life of the world beguileth. Remind (mankind) hereby lest a soul be destroyed by what it earneth. It hath beside Allah no protecting ally nor intercessor, and though it offer every compens...

THE CAUSE OF ALLAH

Image
https://a.co/d/j3dVFEU   Now on sale! Preamble What is the Cause of Allah? Or Al-Quran's Mandate?  Why do Muslims leave their own islamic countries? And enter and settle in a non-islamic country to live permanently? What does this book bring to light? Let the scriptures speak. They do because they are threatened to do so, as is evident in the following verses of Sura 4:(97) Lo! As for those whom the angels take (in death) while they wrong themselves, (the angels) will ask: In what were ye engaged? They will say: We were oppressed in the land. (The angels) will say: Was not Allah's earth spacious that ye could have migrated therein? As for such, their habitation will be hell, an evil journey's end;.. (100) Whoso migrateth for the cause of Allah will find much refuge and abundance in the earth, and whoso forsaketh his home, a fugitive unto Allah and His messenger, and death overtaketh him, his reward is then incumbent on Allah. Allah is ever Forgiving, Merciful. What is th...

MUHAMMAD IS THE GOD-PARTNER OF ALLAH # 2

Image
                 Sura 3 (20) If they dispute with thee, say, I have resigned myself unto God, and he who followeth me doth the same; and say unto them who have received the scriptures, and to the ignorant, Do ye profess the religion of Islám? Now if they embrace Islám, they are surely directed; but if they turn their backs, verily unto thee belongeth preaching only; for God regardeth his servants. (31) Say, if ye love God, follow me: then God shall love you, and forgive you your sins; for God is gracious and merciful. (32) Say, Obey God, and his apostle; but if ye go back, verily God loveth not the unbelievers. Muhammad’s Strategy He transferred his own bipolar characteristics onto past biblical prophets of the Israelites as obviously there were never any true Arabian prophets. He wanted obedience without question. And in order to achieve that, he placed his own words into the former prophets’ preaching. Sura 3 And (49) I come to confirm the ...

QURANIC PREACHING VIA THREATS

Al-Baqarah: The Cow 164 -167 Sura 2 164 Lo! In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the difference of night and day, and the ships which run upon the sea with that which is of use to men, and the water which Allah sendeth down from the sky, thereby reviving the earth after its death, and dispersing all kinds of beasts therein, and (in) the ordinance of the winds, and the clouds obedient between heaven and earth: are signs (of Allah's Sovereignty) for people who have sense. 165 Yet of mankind are some who take unto themselves (objects of worship which they set as) rivals to Allah, loving them with a love like (that which is the due) of Allah (only) - those who believe are stauncher in their love for Allah - Oh, that those who do evil had but known, (on the day) when they behold the doom, that power belongeth wholly to Allah, and that Allah is severe in punishment! 166 (On the day) when those who were followed disown those who followed (them), and they behold the doom, and ...

Allah's zodiacal signs

This is plagiarism at its best ever laugh! Muhammad who over and over insists on just one absolute Creator, and does so with Allah's complete backing-well, here Allah takes credit for creating astrology-the study that assumes and attempts to interpret the influence of the heavenly bodies on human affairs. And Allah guards all these from all obstinate rebellious evil spirits. Should any such spirit get close enough, it's pursued by a flaming fire.  No less of course! O by the way , this so-called  "flaming fire", is a shooting star . Utter idiocrasy! Created of plastic clay! Defi nitely proof within the Quran that the Quranic Allah is not in control. Therefore not Allah at all. Sura 15 (16) We have placed the twelve signs in the heaven, and have set them out in various figures, for the observation of spectators: (17) and we guard them from every devil driven away with stones, (18) except him who listeneth by stealth, at whom a visible flame is darted. Sura 37 IN T...
