The Qur’an Can­not Be A Text of Divine Origin

Hesham Azmy

The Chris­t­ian mis­sion­ar­ies tend to make the gen­er­al con­clu­sion that the Qur’an can­not be a text of divine ori­gin because of the unac­cept­able mean­ings includ­ed in it. Per­haps they are cor­rect in this con­clu­sion and we may be inclined to agree with them due to the fol­low­ing rea­sons, which are :

    1. The Qur’an does not say a prophet slept with his daugh­ters.Gen­e­sis 19:30 – 38

    2. The Qur’an does not say a prophet slept with his neigh­bour’s wife and plot­ted to kill him2 Samuel 11:1 – 27

    3. The Qur’an does not say a prophet wor­shipped the Gold­en Calf.Exo­dus 32:1 – 6

    4. The Qur’an does not say a prophet changed his reli­gion, wor­shipped idols and built for them tem­ples.1 Kings 11:1 – 13

    5. The Qur’an does not say a prophet told lies and that God deceived and destroyed anoth­er prophet.1 Kings 13:1 – 30

    6. The Qur’an does not say David, Solomon and Jesus were orig­i­nal­ly bas­tards from the seed of Pharez, son of Judah.Gen­e­sis 38:12:30

    7. The Qur’an does not say the first­born of the Great Prophet who was the first­born of God slept with his step­moth­er.Gen­e­sis 35:22 and 49:3 – 4

    8. The Qur’an does not say the sec­ond son of the same Great Prophet (first­born of God) slept with his daugh­ter-in-law.Gen­e­sis 38:12:30

    9. The Qur’an does not con­tain lurid details and explic­it pornog­ra­phy involv­ing men of Assyr­ia and whores from Egypt.Ezekiel 23

    10. The Qur’an does not say John the Bap­tist, who was the great­est Israelite Prophet ever accord­ing to Jesus — though the least in the king­dom of God was greater than him ! — failed to rec­og­nize his sec­ond lord on earth, although this lord fol­lowed him and got bap­tized by him. At least not until he saw the third god descend­ing on this sec­ond god as a pigeon.Matthew 3:13 – 17, Mark 1:9 – 11 and Luke 3:21 – 22

    11. The Qur’an does not say the apos­tle of this god, Judas Iscar­i­ot, who per­formed many mir­a­cles in his name and was among the dis­ci­ples who were greater than Moses and oth­er Israelite Prophets accord­ing to Jesus, deliv­ered his god to the hands of his ene­mies for 30 pieces.Matthew 26:14 – 16, 27:3 – 9, Mark 14:10 – 11, Luke 22:3 – 6 and John 18:1 – 5

    12. The Qur’an does not say Caiaphas, the high priest — who was a prophet accord­ing to John the Bap­tist — reject­ed, insult­ed and made a ver­dict to kill his god.Matthew 26:57:68, Mark 14:53 – 65, Luke 22:54 – 71 and John 18:12 – 24

For all the above rea­sons, we con­clude that the Qur’an, unlike the Bible, can­not be a text of divine origin. The Qur'an Cannot Be A Text of Divine Origin 1
