Pharaoh at the parting of the seas

Is this Pharaoh still around? Is there a prophecy of Muhammad about this Pharaoh in the Quran? And notice  the "we", and "our", and "us".  Allah is not singular.  Sura  10  (76) Then did we send, after them, Moses and Aaron unto Pharaoh and his princes with our signs: but they behaved proudly, and were a wicked people. (77) And when the truth from us had come unto them, they said, Verily this is manifest sorcery. (78) Moses said unto them, Do ye speak this of the truth, after it hath come unto you? Is this sorcery? but sorcerers shall not prosper. (79) They said, Art thou come unto us to turn us aside from that religion which we found our fathers practise, and that ye two may have the command in the land? But we do not believe you.  (87) And we spake by inspiration unto Moses and his brother, saying, Provide habitations for your people in Egypt, and make your houses a place of worship, and be constant at prayer; and bear good news unto the true be...

Praying for pagans and the Lord's prayer

The Quran states that it confirms the biblical scriptures as in Surah 5(48), (50)-)52). In Surah 9(112), it says that the Muslims are guaranteed the garden of paradise because Allah has promised them so through the Law, the Gospel and the Quran. In verse 114 the Muslims are directed not to pray for the forgiveness of the pagans. These verses are nothing but lies. The Quran does not confirm the biblical scriptures because the Bible, in Mark 11:15-17, states the exact opposite of what the Quran teaches. Sura 5 (48) We have surely sent down the law, containing direction and light: thereby did the prophets, who professed the true religion, judge those who judaised; and the doctors and priests also judged by the book of God, which had been committed to their custody; and they were witnesses thereof. Therefore fear not men, but fear me; neither sell my signs for a small price. And whoso judgeth not according to what God hath revealed, they are infidels. (50) We also caused Jesus the son...

Death of every soul

The Quran states that it confirms the biblical scriptures. On the subject of the soul of a person, it says that every soul shall die. But the Bible states that man is soil and returns to the soil (Genesis 3:19), the spirit returns to God who gave it and the soul is looked after as well.  The Quran has nil knowledge of the three aspects of a person. Sura 3 IN THE NAME OF THE MOST MERCIFUL GOD. (1) A. L. M. (2) There is no God but God, the living, the self-subsisting: (3) he hath sent down unto thee the book of the QurĂ¡n with truth, confirming that which was revealed before it; for he had formerly sent down the law, and the gospel a direction unto men; and he had also sent down the distinction between good and evil. (4) Verily those who believe not the signs of God shall suffer a grievous punishment; for God is mighty, able to revenge. Sura 4 (45) O ye to whom the scriptures have been given, believe in the revelation which ye have sent down, confirming that which is with you,...

Muhammad's Roman prophecy, sura 30

Note- I have quoted several translations by Muslim and non-muslim translators of  various time periods to show consistency or inconsistency  of the quranic passage under consideration. Prophecy or good politics? 1/  Tafsir Ibn Kathir Vol 7: Foretelling the Victory of the Romans These Ayat were revealed about the victory of Sabur, the king of Persia, over Ash-Sham (Greater Syria), the adjoining partisan states of the Arabian Peninsula, and the outlying regions of the land of the Romans. Heraclius, the emperor of the Romans, was forced to flee to Constantinople where he was besieged for a lengthy period. Then Heraclius regained the upper hand. Imam Ahmad recorded that Ibn ‘Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him, commented on this Ayah: He said, ‘They were defeated and then they were victorious.” He said. The idolaters wanted the Persians to prevail over the Romans, because they were idol worshippers, and the Muslims wanted the Romans to prevail over the Persians, because they...

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...

Pharaoh and Haman

Pharaoh and Haman never met. The quran states in S10(37): "And this Qur'an is not such as could ever be invented in despite of Allah; but it is a confirmation of that which was before it and an exposition of that which is decreed for mankind - Therein is no doubt - from the Lord of the Worlds." But here is one more example of something that never happened. Plagiarism at its worst. Haman, mentioned 6 times in Al-quran, was contemporary with Moses. The biblical Haman was chronologically ahead of Moses. A vizier in the Persian Empire under King Ahasuerus, he was the main antagonist in the book of Esther. Sura 28 1 Ta. Sin. Mim. 2 These are revelations of the Scripture that maketh plain. 3 We narrate unto thee (somewhat) of the story of Moses and Pharaoh with truth, for folk who believe. 4 Lo! Pharaoh exalted himself in the earth and made its people castes. A tribe among them he oppressed, killing their sons and sparing their women. Lo! he was of those who work corruption...

Queen of Saba vsits Solomon

Solomon sends the Queen of Saba a threatening letter after receiving reports from his spy bird Hoopoe. She must conform to Islam. An incredibly tall tale since in this Surah 27 Solomon talks to ants and birds.  This Sura also claims: (77) and there is nothing hidden in heaven or on earth, but it is written in a clear book.  (78) Verily this QurĂ¡n declareth unto the children of Israel most of those points concerning which they disagree: (79) and it is certainly a direction and a mercy unto the true believers. (80) Thy Lord will decide the controversy between them by his definitive sentence: and he is the mighty, the wise. (81) Therefore put thy trust in God; for thou art in the manifest truth. https://oll.libertyfund.org/title/wherry-the-quran-vol-3#lf0965-03_label_689 Disagree in what? Solomon talking to ants and birds? Sura 27 (15) We heretofore bestowed knowledge on David and Solomon: and they said, Praise be unto God, who hath made us more excellent than many of his faith...
