We have already discussed this topic in our another page but we decided to publish this full-fledged page on this subject after watching a blasphemous video of a spokeswoman of Indian Ruling Party BJP “Nupur Sharma“, in May/June 2022. In that video, she placed slanders on Last prophet of God, Prophet Mohammad PBUH, and on the Quran too. Her slanders mainly contained three components;
1– Flying Horse Buraq on which Prophet took ride, and went to heaven to meet God. But fact is, this story of flying-horse-Buraq never exists in Glorious Quran. This fictitious story comes from fabricated hadiths. We have already dedicated a full page on this Subject of “Flying Horse”, at this link.
2– She placed slander on Prophet Mohammad PBUH for marrying nine years girl. But in fact, that Hadith which tells he married to nine years girl, is a fabricated hadith, and we have discussed this slander in full and in depth, in our page at this link. Please note: Prophet Mohammad PBUH and even four Caliphs left behind only written Quran; and this story of nine year age-marriage never exists in Quran. In Quran, marriage age starts from adulthood; and Prophet could never violate law of his Lord which has been finalized in Noble Quran. All books of extra-Quranic Hadiths, Sunnah, Contexts, Fiqh, Seera, and Tafsir were forged about 200-500 years after the death of Prophet, and these books are books of lies, folklore, rumors, propaganda, blasphemous stories, and hearsay fairytales. Most of stories which hadith-Books of Sunni and Shia sects contain were indeed forged by hypocrites, defeated Zoroastrians, Zanadqa and “People of Book”. Ibn Asakir (1106-1176 CE) wrote in his Magnum Opus “History of Damascus” that a Zandiq was brought to the Court of Caliph Harun Rashid (763-809 CE), and Caliph ordered his beheading. Just before beheading, Zindiq cried aloud, and said to Caliph, O Amir-ul-Momineen (O Chief of Believers): do you know that I have forged thousands of hadiths in which I have made those things Haram which Quran makes Halal; and I have made those things Halal which Quran makes Haram. Fact is: Caliph Umar RA banned and burned all hadiths, and he placed three companions of Prophet under house arrest for life due to their Hadith-Mongering. Dear Reader: Prophet Mohammad PBUH and four Caliphs left behind not a single page of Hadiths manuscript. Read proof here at this link.
3– Then Sweety Nupur Sharma quoted Quranic verse 88:20 out of context, and claimed that Quran, says: Earth is like a Flat piece of wood. Like all Islamophobic bigots, she also just picked one verse out of context, and misinterpreted it. Quranic verses are interconnected like brain neurons, so in this way, verses explain each other in multifaceted forms. Therefore; whole Quran must be considered “background context” of every and each verse of Quran. In this page, we will show: Quran says that earth has geo-spherical shape. We will also show in this page that Books of Hindu Religion (which Sweety Nupur Sharma follows) tell that Earth has Four Corners. Earth is Fixed. Earth is immoveable, and Earth is supported by a Bull, (wow), and Earth is supported by pillars. But Last Book of God Glorious-Quran tells us: planets are floating in their orbits. When we present translation of Hindu Books; Hindu fanatics usually say that, this and that translation is incorrect. But we have chosen that translator of Hindu Books who was a Professor of Sanskrit and other Indian Languages.
Does Quran say: Earth is Flat? Read below: In Quran 79:30 word “dahaha”
When other verses of Quran on this subject are also read, and when oldest Arabic Lexicons are consulted, it becomes clear that meaning of word dahaha of verse 79:30 is to form/shape purposely a Geo-Spherical shape like Ostrich Egg but when you tell this meaning to some Ignorant Muslims; Atheists and Islamophobic bigots who are always busy to seek any discord in Quran; they will take stand on nonsensical and irrational arguments. For example, they will show you translation of verse 79:30 from many Translators but they do not know: That these Translators are not authorized by God but they are human beings, and they have been twisting translation of not only verse 79:30 but also many other verses of Quran from centuries. i.e. they twist 4:159 at 180 degree in order to validate their false belief. They twist 4:157, 4:158, 3:144, and 25:30, 3:55, 5:116-117. From over 50 translators, 80% has translated a very simple verse 72:18 in wrong way as per their already built-in psyche of Pooja-Pot (Namaz) which never exists in Quran. Salat is not Zoroastrian Namaz. They have some already built-in false beliefs in their brains, and when they translate verses, they deform, bend, twist and even tamper translations of verses in order to reconcile verses with their false beliefs. In addition to that twist, they also add their own-made stupidities in brackets. It is like a Person who bought a Pant for him from market, and when he tested it at home, it was short. So he cut his legs in order to fit that pant to his legs. That what 99% Translators are doing with Quran during translating its original Arabic text. After this, Islamophobic bigots will start to give reference of Mullahs and Pseudo Scholars. Did God authorize these Pseudo Mullahs to explain words of Quran? No. When you listen any one, you have to use your Aqil/reason too 8:22, 7:179, 2:170. Two examples of such TWO TOP (Pseudo) Mullahs are given below. An old Imam Ibn Kathir is considered an authority on Islamic Exegesis by almost all Mullahs and their blindly following pets. But seems, that Ignorant Oldi Mullah Ibn Kathir probably copied a story from Hindu’s book “Atharva Veda 4.11.1” which says: Earth is being lifted by a Bull.
Now we see another Top Mullah. Sheik Abdul-Aziz Ibn Baaz, supreme religious authority of Saudi Arabia who in 1993 said: “The earth is flat. Whoever claims it is round is an atheist deserving of punishment.” Same Mullah gave another one of the most preposterous Fatwa (Religious Ruling) in 1970: “Whoever believes that the Earth moves around the Sun, or that man has landed on the moon is an ardent Kaafir. Furthermore, anyone doubting his infidelity would be a greater Kaafir and his wife would be automatically divorced from him. It would be haram to marry into his family, drink water in his house, pray behind him, or to attend his funeral prayer”. Amusingly, this is a prototype of the kind of Fatawa dispensed by our Mullahs rendering Kaafir whoever won’t heed them. (from book, Criminals of Islam). Read much more about this Emperor of Ignoramus Mullahs Ibn Baz at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abd_al-Aziz_ibn_Baz
We give you here another Example that Quran in its verses, relates hearing to ears, seeing to eyes but understanding (not to brain) but Heart. Islamophobic bigots and Ignorant Atheists always raised objection, why does Quran relate understanding with heart; as according to Atheists, heart is mere Blood Pump. Now, because our Mullahs were unable to answer rationally, so they started to translate Heart as Intelligence. Truth is: Neither Atheists, Scientists, and Islamophobic bigots have full knowledge of every thing nor our Mullahs know every thing. Only God knows every thing. Now, 1400 years after the landing of Quran, recently Scientists has discovered that in fact, main brain is in heart. Heart’s own brain has over 40000 neurons and heart is always shaking hands/communicating with brain, and giving him orders. Magnetic field of Heart is many times stronger than brain. So it is not brain in Head but it is Heart that understands bad or good things, and then commands brain. Decision maker is Heart. In other words, head-brain is subordinate of brain that exists in Heart. People whom hearts were transplanted, later adopted habits of those persons who donated hearts. We are not kidding with you Mr/Ms/Mrs Islamophobe: Just go to Youtube and search “Brain has its own heart”.
Quranic verse 79:30 tells that earth is made egg-shaped. The Arabic word ‘Dahaha’ comes from root word ‘Duhya’, which means: Egg-shape, and it does not refer to any normal Egg. It specifically refers to the Egg of an Ostrich, and today we know that the world is not completely round like a ball- It is Geo Spherical. It is slightly flattened from the top and bulging from the center. It is Geo Spherical. And if you analyze the shape of the Egg of an Ostrich, it too is Geo Spherical, slightly flattened from the top and bulging from the center. So the Holy Qur’an describes the exact Geo spherical earth 1400 years ago. There are some Jaahil Muslims who have started to believe in hoax, that Earth is Flat, and that kind of people twist verses in order to validate their hoax of flat earth.
in Surah Nur, Ch. 71, verse no. 19 and 20, which does say… ‘that we have spread out the Earth like a carpet’. But it gives the answer in the next verse, in verse number 20, So that you may walk and travel in the spacious path. As we mentioned – the Geologists, they tell us today, the earth which we live- on the surface is hardly one to 10 miles, and less than 1% of the total radius of the earth which is 3750 miles. The top layer is a solid shell. The deeper layers are hot and fluid, and inhospitable for existence of life. Nowhere does the Quran say, that the earth is flat. It gives a similitude that… We have spread out the Earth like a carpet. People normally have a misconception that … A carpet can only be spread on a flat surface. It is wrong – A carpet, can also be spread on a spherical surface too. For example imagine that there is big model of the earth, the globe, say about 10 feet in radius – Very big – Very well you can spread a carpet around it – It is possible. Science today tells us that if the outer crust was not spread out like a carpet around this spherical earth, we would not be able to live – Because the deeper layers are hot and fluid. So, when Qur’an says, we have spread out the earth, its referring to the earth’s crust has been spread out like a carpet. And the reason is given… “So that you may walk in the spacious path of the Lord”- Qur’an says in other places also that… ‘We have made the Earth, as spacious’. Quran says… in Surah Nabah Ch. 78, Verse No. 6, We have made the Earth as an expanse. It is referring that… The earth, We have made as wide- You know why? The answer is given in Surah Ankabut, Ch. 29, Verse, 56 which says… We have made the Earth as a wide expanse for you so that you will bow Me and Me alone’. So tomorrow you cannot say that, the situation where I lived in, may be Bombay, it was difficult circumstances, therefore I was prevented to do good deeds – So I did evil deeds. Allah says… The earth is a wide expanse for you – it is spacious’. You cannot give the excuse for doing evil deeds, because of your circumstances. In another verse Quran says: In a society does not allows to follow Divine law, then immigrate to other place. There is no place in the Holy Qur’an which says…‘The world is flat.
To be closer to understanding what it actually says, the language of the Qur’an must be understood in its original Arabic, each word according to the context of its time.
79:30: And the Earth after that He ‘eroded it/ scraped it into shape/ dahaha.‘
As we can see from the Arabic definition below, the verb ‘dahaa’ refers to its having been scraped into shape, which we may understand as erosion. Why? Because we see erosion on a small scale when rocks that crash against each other become pebbles, which are called ‘dahwa‘ in Arabic, which is also the name given to the ‘scrape’ in which ostriches lay their eggs. The definition tells us that the verb is about something being leveled and spread, like a horse pounding the earth without lifting its hooves high above the ground, or like an OSTRICH BUILDING ITS SCRAPE (ostriches don’t build nests).
Muhamad Motwali Alsharawi (April 5, 1911 – June 17, 1998) was an Islamic scholar, former Egyptian minister of Endowments and Muslim jurist. He has been called one of Egypt’s most popular and successful Islamic preachers, and “one of the most-prominent symbols of popular Egyptian culture” in the decades of 1970, 80s and 90s (Wikipedia). Whole Arab world/Islamic world knows him very well. If you like, you can see his face in Google Pictures. Let we read below what he has written:
“And after that He spread the earth”, is an old interpretation of that versus. The Quran was not intended to shock people or to be a science book. The wording of the Quran was chosen by God Almighty to bear the real meaning in a dissimulated way, so that the human mind only once informed can grasp it. This is why the “dahaha” was interpreted as expanded, or spread in the past. But I assure you that our Egyptian peasants use the word “dahya” for “egg“. 
Professor Dr. Mohar Ali PhD (1929-2007 CE) has also discussed other verses 78:6, 51:48, 71:19, 20:53, 13:3, 2:22 in the same book. We cannot post here many pages; so reader is suggested to read this book. That is very informative and Scholarly Book. In this book, Dr. Mohar Ali has debunked all slanders of Islamophobic Bigots logically and rationally.
The Arabic word “dahw” means rotundity like that of the ostrich’s egg. The above verse was also interpreted to refer to the shaping of the earth in the form of an ostrich egg. Professor Dr. Suleyman Atefl, former head of Religious Affairs in Turkey, gives the following definition of the word, based on the famous Arabic dictionary Lisan ul Arab:
“The word ‘dahw’ means to spread out, giving (something) a round shape.” The word “dahw” had also been defined as a game played with walnuts. Derived from the same stem, the word “medahi” referred to round stones. Despite the meaning of rotundity concealed in words derived from the word “dahw” there have been translators for whom a spherical earth was difficult to conceive, who had to translate it as “to spread out.” The actual shape of the earth does have the shape of an ostrich egg. Thus the shape of the earth is spheroid with depressions at the poles. The exact figure of the earth which had posed a problem throughout history was established by the Quran.
Even the books written a few centuries after the descent of the Quran likened the shape of the earth to a tray. Beliefs according to which the earth rested on the horns of an ox or was supported by a fish reigned over mentalities in the Arabic peninsula and many believed that earthquakes occurred when the fish down below waved its tail. The Prophet had no ocean-going ship to cross the earth from one extremity to the other, that would have supplied him with evidence proving the spheroid shape of the earth, nor had he a spacecraft from which he could have had an overall view of our world that would have provided him a photographic image of it, as he was not equipped with a camera. Our knowledge of the sphericity of the earth, which seems to us as an established fact, was then beyond the comprehension and imagination of the majority. Therefore, the Quran’s statement to this effect failed to be grasped. Men believed that the verse referred to the plenitude of the earth, ignoring the sense of rotundity.
Thus, at a time when most of the people believed in the shape of earth’s figure as a tray supported by an ox or fish, the Quran had beautifully described its actual shape. The fact that ostriches abounded in the Arabian Peninsula at the time must have permitted those who inquired into this mystery to hold an ostrich egg in their hands and examine it. The geoidal form is a gentle indication of this. The subtlety of the Quran’s expressions provides men with evidence.” 
Ignorant who believe in hoax of flat earth try to misuse these verses for their cause 15:19, 20:53, 43:10, 50:7, 51:48, 71:19, 78:6, 88:20 and 91:6. But these all verses tell, We have made that Earth Live-able and spacious for you. Imagine if this whole Geo-Spherical earth was like Himalaya Mountains; then where were human going to live, irrigate, run cars etc.! So, God has expanded Stretched outer surface of Geo-sphere to make this Earth Live-able. If you are an old man, then have you ever seen some old bread making shops in Asian Countries? They used to place half-Hollow-empty Steel Sphere on fire and used to place wheat dough on that sphere. It looked like a smooth Carpet on sphere. Try to Know the difference between straight, smooth, flat, and expanded. Many people do not know the difference.
He has created the Heavens and the Earth for Truth. He wraps/rolls the night up in the day, and wraps/rolls the day up in the night. (Qur’an, 39:5)
In the Qur’an, the words used for describing the Universe are quite remarkable. The Arabic word which is translated as “to wrap” in the above verse is “takwir.” In English, it means “to make one thing lap over another, folded up as a garment that is laid away.” For instance, in Arabic dictionaries this word is used for the action of wrapping one thing around another, in the way that a turban is put on. The information given in the verse about the day and the night wrapping each other up includes accurate information about the shape of the world. This can be true only if the Earth is round.

Though we do not see any verse in Quran which directly talks that earth spins but we can easily infer from other verses that earth indeed spins. It is like: A=B, and B=C. These equations never tell us directly that A=C but we can easily infer, because A=B and B=C, therefore; without any doubt, A=C is also correct. Verse 39:5 tells us: day rolls over night and night rolls of day. And this is possible only if Earth spins facing Sun.
God says in Quran 3:190 “Verily, in the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the succession of night and day, there are indeed messages for all who are endowed with insight”.
Again, we read in Quran 10:6 “for, verily, in the alternating of night and day, and in all that God has created in the heavens and on earth there are messages indeed for people who are conscious of Him!”.
We read in Quranic verse 45:5 “in the alternation of night and day, in the rain God provides, sending it down from the sky and reviving the dead earth with it, and in His shifting of the winds there are signs for those who use their reason”. So, God is repeatedly telling in Quran that people of understanding will know: how can day and night come into existence.
For the sake of argument; can day and night roll-over if Earth is stationary? Yes: it is possible too provided Sun moves around stationary earth in 24 hours. But does Sun move around earth in 24 hours? No. Therefore; only one possibility is left for rolling day over night, which is: if Earth spins facing Sun. When Facing Sun, there is day on half of Spheroid, and when earth does not face sun; there is night. Quran calls those East and West. This is why: in whole Quran, there is no any North and South because when you place a Globe in front of a lamp; there are only two divisions Day and Night. If Earth was of Square shape with four Corners (as is written in Hindu’s Books Veda and others), then Quran could mention along with East and West, also North and South.
Naturally, Hoax of Flat earth is spread by those people who believe in Flat Earth Story of their Bible and Veda. Being Faithful to their religious Books, they follow and believe in every word and every story of that Book but they do not like to accept one Truth, which is: For sure, Moses and Jesus were Prophets of God, and for sure, Torah and Gospel sent to Moses and Jesus were True Genuine Books of GOD, but but and but; that books have been heavily tampered by Priests; so, that books are no longer reliable Books. God in no way could write in his Books that Earth is Flat because in fact empirically it is not. Last Testament of GOD “Quran” which carries forward remnant Truth of Original Torah and Original Syriac Gospel (Injeel), the Quran which updates Divine Law and supersedes all previous scriptures, tells us: That Earth has Geo-Spherical shape 79:30 and it rolls over again and again daily to make day and night (39:5). And Moon is floating in its orbit and Sun is also floating in its preset track 21:33, 36:38. (Recent scientific discoveries show: Sun with his whole family is also traveling). In Bible, story of Flat earth is blended by any priest and never by God.

اس پرانے ویڈیو میں جو مثال غامدی صاحب نے روزوں کے متعلق دی ہے بالکل وہ کسی ایت کے منسوخ ہونے کا ثبوت نہیں ہے۔ اس وقت کے، اسلام کے ٹاپ پروفیسرز جیسے کہ ڈاکٹر پروفیسر یاسر عودہ ہے نے بھی لکھا ہے کہ اس نے پورے حدیث لٹریچر کی تحقیق کی ہے اور اس کو ایک حدیث بھی صحیح نہیں ملی جو قران کی کسی ایت کے منسوخ ہونے کی بات کرتی ہو۔ یہ ساری کارستانی ان جاہل سنی اماموں کی ہے جو صحابہ کے بہت بعد میں وارد ہوئے۔ ایت ۲:۱۰٦ کو اگر ایت ۲:۱۰۵ کے ساتھ ملا کر سمجھا جائے تو بات صاف ہو جاتی ہے کہ ان ایات میں، پرانی کتابوں کی شریعت کی منسوخی کی بات ہو رہی ہے۔ غامدی صاحب کی پرابلم یہ ہے کہ وہ اپنے جاہل استادوں امین اصلاحی اور فراہی کو پغمبر سمجھ کر ان کی جہالت کو بھی اندھوں کی طرح فالو کرتے ہیں۔ چونکہ جاہل امین اصلاحی نے اپنی کتاب تدبر-قران میں لکھ دیا ہے کہ قران اپنی ایات منسوخ کرتا ہے تو اصلاحی کے یہ توہین-قران کے الفاظ، غامدی صاحب کے لیے حدیث بن گئے ہیں۔ حالانکہ، گو اصلاحی اور فراہی دوسرے جنوبی ایشیا کے ملاؤں سے قدرے بہتر تھے مگر اس کا مطلب یہ نہیں کہ وہ دونوں فرشتے تھے اور انہوں نے غلطیاں نہیں کیں۔ قران تو بتاتا ہے بحثیت انسان، نبیوں سے بھی غلطیاں ہوئیں ۴۸:۲
ایک منطقی اور راشنل نقطہ یہ ہے کہ اگر قران-الحکیم کی کچھ ایات منسوخ ہوتیں تو نبی، ان ایات کی فکس تعداد صحابہ کو بتاتے۔ مگر کوئی سنی انفیڈل امام کہتا ہے کہ قران کی ۲۱۳ ایات منسوخ ہیں تو کوئی کہتا ہے کہ صرف پانچ منسوخ ہیں۔ صاف پتہ چلتا ہے کہ ان جاہل اماموں نے قران کے ساتھ کھلواڑ کیا ہے۔ جعفر نحاس لکھتا ہے کہ ۱۳۳ ایات منسوخ ہیں۔ مصری مولوی سیوطی لکھتا ہے کہ ۲۲ منسوخ ہیں۔ ابن الجوازی لکھتا ہے کہ ۲۴۷ منسوخ ہیں۔ دجال ابن سلامہ لکھتا ہے کہ ۲۱۳ ایات منسوخ ہیں۔ یہ لسٹ لمبی ہے۔ اور شاہ ولی-اللہ دہلوی لکھتا ہے ۵ ایات منسوخ ہیں۔ ایک انسان جس کا دماغ دس فیصد بھی صحیح کام کر رہا ہو ان اعداد-و-شمار سے سمجھ سکتا ہے۔ یہ ناسخ-منسوخ کی خرافات جاہل سنی اماموں کی پیداوار ہے۔ مگر یہ سچ غامدی صاحب کے دماغ میں گھسنے سے اس لیے قاصر ہے کیونکہ مسٹر غامدی کو ہر صورت میں اصلاحی اور فراحی کو فالو کرنا ہے۔
غامدی صاحب قران کو سمجھنے کی بجاۓ جاہل امین اصلاحی اور جاہل فراہی کو فرشتہ ثابت کرنے میں جٹے رہتے ہیں۔
مسٹر @azhariqbal1390
اس روزوں کی ایت کو یہاں پوسٹ کرو جو غامدی کے مطابق منسوخ ہے اور وہ ایت بھی پوسٹ کرو جو غامدی کے قریب ناسخ ہے۔ پھر میں اپ کو راشنل جواب سے بتاؤں گا کہ غامدی نے سفید جھوٹ بولا ہے۔ یہ ادمی قران کو نہیں سمجھتا، بس اپنی دکانداری چلا رہا ہے۔ اس کا مقصد قران کو سمجھنا ہے ہی نہیں بلکہ ماضی کے دو جاہل ملاؤں اصلاحی اور فراہی کو فرشتے ثابت کرنا ہے۔ پھر یہ بے-عقل ادمی کہتا ہے کہ عیسی کے مرنے کے بعد فرشتے عیسی کی لاش اٹھا کر اسمان پر لے گیے اور وہ لاش ۲۰۰۰ سال سے فریزر میں پڑی ہے۔ ان باتوں سے پتہ چلتا ہے کہ اس ادمی کے پاس نہ کامن-سینس ہے نہ ہی قران کی سجھ، نہ ہی میٹافزکس کی سمجھ۔– اس بندے نے ایت ۲۰:۵۵ نہیں پڑھی جس میں الله جَلَّ جَلَالَهُ فرماتے ہیں کہ تم کو مٹی سے بنایا ہے اور تم مٹی میں ہی واپس جاؤ گے، اسمان پر نہیں۔ بلکل ایسے ہی تورت جنیسز ۳:۱۹ میں لکھا۔ ۲۰:۵۵ مِنْهَا خَلَقْنَـٰكُمْ وَفِيهَا نُعِيدُكُمْ وَمِنْهَا نُخْرِجُكُمْ تَارَةً أُخْرَىٰ۔
موت کا ایک سٹینڈرڈ قانون ہے قُلْ يَتَوَفَّىٰكُم مَّلَكُ ٱلْمَوْتِ ٱلَّذِى وُكِّلَ بِكُمْ ثُمَّ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكُمْ تُرْجَعُونَ ۳۲:۱۱ کہ موت کے بعد مٹی کا جسم واپس مٹی میں جاتا ہے اور جو روحانی انسان جو ماں کے رحم میں بھیجا گیا تھا زندگی کے امتحان ٦۷:۲ کے بعد مر جاتا ہے اور موت کے بعد اسی روح کو، الله جَلَّ جَلَالَهُ کی طرف اٹھا لیا جاتا ہے ٦:۹۴، ۳۲:۱۱، ۳:۵۵۔ زندہ یا مردہ مٹی کا جسم الله جَلَّ جَلَالَهُ کی طرف نہ تو جاتا ہے نہ ہی جا سکتا ہے کیونکہ مٹی کا جسم الله جَلَّ جَلَالَهُ کے روحانی-ریلم میں داخل ہو ہی نہیں سکتا۔ وہ دنیا اور ہے اور یہ دنیا اور۔ اس مٹی کے جسم کی انکھ، الله جَلَّ جَلَالَهُ کو نہیں دیکھ سکتی ۷:۱۴۳

الله جَلَّ جَلَالَهُ ایت ۷:۱۴۳ میں فرماتے ہیں۔
اور جب موسیٰ ہمارے مقرر کیے ہوئے وقت پر (کوہ طور) پر پہنچے اور ان کے پروردگار نے ان سے کلام کیا تو کہنے لگے کہ اے پروردگار مجھے (جلوہ) دکھا کہ میں تیرا دیدار (بھی) دیکھوں۔ پروردگار نے کہا کہ تم مجھے ہرگز نہ دیکھ سکو گے۔ ہاں پہاڑ کی طرف دیکھتے رہو اگر یہ اپنی جگہ قائم رہا تو تم مجھے دیکھ سکو گے۔ جب ان کا پروردگار پہاڑ پر نمودار ہوا تو (تجلی انوارِ ربانی) نے اس کو ریزہ ریزہ کردیا اور موسیٰ بےہوش ہو کر گر پڑے۔ جب ہوش میں آئے تو کہنے لگے کہ تیری ذات پاک ہے اور میں تیرے حضور توبہ کرتا ہوں اور جو ایمان لانے والے ہیں ان میں سب سے اول
So-called New Testament: The earliest known complete list of the 27 books is found in a letter written by Athanasius, a 4th-century bishop of Alexandria, dated to 367 AD.[3] The 27-book New Testament was first formally canonized during the councils of Hippo (393) and Carthage (397) in North Africa. Pope Innocent I ratified the same canon in 405, but it is probable that a Council in Rome in 382 under Pope Damasus I gave the same list first. These councils also provided the canon of the Old Testament, which included the deuterocanonical books.(Wikipedia)
In order to learn; who is Bart D. Ehrman; reader is suggested to see Wikipedia. In short; he was a devout Christian (follower of Roman Paul), but later when he realized that the books upon which, he had built his faith, were indeed forged, therefore; he relinquished Pauline Christianity, and became an Atheist. Please note: dogma of Christianity was never founded by Islamic Prophet Isa PBUH (Jesus), but he was Roman Tentmaker Saul later called Paul who launched a new dogma which is called today Christianity. In the same way, he was not Islamic Prophet Moses but Talmudists who centuries after the death of Moses, converted name of a tribe “Judah” in to a new dogma “Judaism”. Last and Final Book of God which has superseded all previous scriptures “Quran” makes clear that near God, acceptable Deen is only Al-Islam. Deen Al-Islam = Divinely Prescribed Way of Life. Quran also makes clear that all Prophets including Moses and Jesus preached only Islam, and all Scriptures including original Torah and original Injeel were scriptures of Islam which have been superseded by final edition of all scriptures “Quran”. God has named all true followers of all Prophets “Muslims” 3:19, 3:85, 42:3, 42:13, 6:125, 39:22, 10:72, 3:67, 2:130-140, 10:84, 3:52, 22:78, 2:105-106, 5:48, 48:28. Being the final edition of all Scriptures and for being also Muhaymon 5:48; after consigning all previous scriptures to oblivion, Quran has superseded all previous Scriptures 2:105-106, 5:48, 28:52…54, 2:137, 6:155.
God guides only those people who are worthy of guidance and who are sincerely researching for Truth. God is nearer to man than even his neck-vein and listens even what soul of person whispers 50:16. No leaf fall but He knows it 6:59. So, He knows very well about the degree of sincerity of a person toward the search of Truth. Those who are sincerely after truth, are, for sure, guided by God.
We give you here one example: there is a Jewish Professor who teaches in a University in State of Hawaii, USA. He is Professor of Comparative Religion, which means: he has studied all religions. He is not a Scholar like Bart D Ehrman who knows about only 12% of total life of Jesus; but Professor of Comparative Religion has studied all religions. So, area of Comparative Religion is much more broader than that area of a Bible Scholar who knows only about 12% life of Jesus, and he does not know about his rest of 88% life. After reading the Quran, that Jewish Professor converted to Islam. Now, he is a Muslim; you can say: Jewish Muslim, because a person is called a Jew who belongs to tribe of Judah. According to Quran, Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob and his twelve sons including Judah, David and Solomon all preached none except Islam.
On the Contrary, God has not guided Bart D. Ehrman because God knows well the degree of sincerity of Ehrman toward the search of Truth. We have read almost all books of Bart. After reading his all work, it clearly appears to us that he is intellectually, dishonest, and also he is not a wise man. We ask reader this question: should we criticize and mock a book even without reading and understanding that Book! Of course not, but Bart Ehrman who is a scholar about 12% life of Jesus mocks even a book which he has never read nor understood with an unbiased honest mind. We ask: Mr. Ehrman: do you understand Arabic? No. Do you understand that Arabic, in which Quran is written? No. Do you understand Arabic Grammar? No. Have you understood Quran only through Quran’s own built-in Tasreef? No. Then, what is your right to comment on Quran and mock Quran? If you have even a trace of wisdom; when YouTuber host asked you about Quran; your answer was supposed to be: I am not a Scholar of Quran, so I should not comment on Quran.
Do you think, Mr. Ehrman that the Jewish Professor of Comparative Religion which we have mentioned above, is converted to Islam even without knowing about the Author of the Quran! Fact is: when that Professor read and understood whole Quran with honest unbiased mind; he fully realized that what is written in Quran, cannot be word of any human being; no way. Bart type people are placing same blame on Quran which was being placed by Meccan Pagans 1400 years ago, who used to say: Mohammad has forged this Book. Then, God challenged Meccan Pagans in Quran 10:38, 11:13, 52:33-34, 17:88, 15:99, 41:42, that if you think that Quran is not word of God, then write even one chapter like of Quran. But Arab Pagan failed to accept challenge despite the fact, they were master in Arabic Language. Meccan Pagans were aware, that the Eight Dimensional Arabic which is used in Quran, cannot be structured by any human being; no way. Within Quran, God has said numerous times that It is He, Who has sent down the Quran, and He will protect the Quran 15:9, 17:88, 41:42. And in Quran, Mohmmad “in person” is not talking but God is talking to people directly or God is commanding Prophet Mohammad: Say (Qul) this and that to people. For example; even a person with half-brain can realize that in following verses; it is God Who is speaking, and following words can never be words of Mohammad (peace be upon him).
Quran 50:16 (God says) NOW, VERILY, it is We who have created man, and We know what his innermost self whispers within him: for We are closer to him than his neck-vein (Note: “We” is majestic plural).
Quran 50:43 (God says) Verily, it is We who grant life and deal death; and with Us will be all journeys’ end (Note: Mr. Bart: if you have even trace of sense in your brain; you must realize that these are not words of Mohammad).
Quran 4:105 We have sent down the Scripture to you [Prophet] with the truth so that you can judge between people in accordance with what God has shown you. Do not be an advocate for those who betray trust
In Quran, God has called this kind of Stubborn Ignorant people “Cattle“.
Quran 7:179 (God says) And most certainly have We destined for hell many of the invisible beings and humans who have hearts with which they fail to grasp the truth, and eyes with which they fail to see, and ears with which they fail to hear. They are like cattle -nay, they are even less conscious of the right way: it is they, they who are the [truly] heedless!
Quran 10:38 “Or do they say, ‘He (Muhammad) has forged it?’ Say, ‘Bring then a chapter like unto it, and call upon whomsoever you can, besides God, if you are truthful!
Quran 11:13 “Or do they say, ‘He (Muhammad) forged it.’ Say, ‘Bring you then ten forged chapters like unto it, and call whomsoever you can, other than God (to your help), if you speak the truth.’
Quran 52:33-34 “Or do they say, ‘He (Muhammad) has forged it?’ Nay! They believe not! Let them then produce a recital like unto it if they are truthful.”
Quran 2:23 And if you doubt any part of what We have, bestowed from on high, step by step, upon Our servant [Muhammad], then produce a surah of similar merit, and call upon any other than God to bear witness for you, if what you say is true!
Quran 17:88 “Say: ‘If all mankind and all invisible beings would come together with a view to producing the like of this Qur’an, they could not produce its like even though they were to exert all their strength in aiding one another!
Quran 4:153 The People of the Book (Jews and Christians) demand that you [Prophet] make a book physically come down to them from heaven, but they demanded even more than that of Moses when they said, ‘Show us God face to face,’ and were struck by the thunderbolt for their presumption. Even after clear revelations had come down to them, they took the calf as an object of worship, yet We pardoned this, and gave Moses clear authority;
Quran 6:7 But even if we had sent down unto thee [O Prophet] a writing on paper, and they had touched it with their own hands – those who are bent on denying the truth would indeed have said, ‘This is clearly nothing but a deception!’
Quran 38:29 This is the Blessed Book that We have revealed to you, (O Muhammad), that people with understanding may reflect over its verses and those with understanding derive a lesson.
Quran 39:2 It is We who sent down the Scripture to you [Prophet] with the Truth, so serve God with your total devotion.
Quran 39:41 We have sent the Scripture down to you [Prophet] with the Truth for people. Whoever follows the guidance does so for his own benefit, whoever strays away from it does so at his own peril: you are not in charge of them.
On the Contrary; after Jesus, Original Book of God “Injeel” was lost, and after the death of Prophet Harun (brother of Moses), Original Book of God “Torah” was lost. Existing NT and OT are mere collections of those books which are books of folkloric tales. In NT and OT, not even one book is Original Scripture.
Even Bart Ehrman himself has written in his own books that Mark, Matthew, Luke, and John are Anonymous Books. And the names Mark, Matthew, Luke, and John were randomly attached to these books of contradictory folkloric tales at the end of 2nd Century. Even these four Gospels are being tampered for centuries. Gospels of 4th century from Codex Sinaiticus are different from four Gospels of today.
Then, how can this man Ehrman compare those concocted and corrupted books with the Quran, in which, God repeats several times that it is He Who has sent down the Quran, and He Himself will protect it 15:9, 17:88, 41:42
Quran 15:9 (God says) We have sent down the Quran Ourself, and We Ourself will guard it.
But Ehrman asks? Who was author of Quran? God has addressed this kind of misguided people in following Quranic verses:
Quran 2:171 And so, the parable of those who re bent on denying the truth is that of the beast which hears the shepherd’s cry, and hears in it nothing but the sound of a voice and a call. Deaf are they, and dumb, and blind: for they do not use their reason.
Quran 14:18 [This, then, is] the parable of those who are bent on denying their Sustainer: all their works are as ashes which the wind blows about fiercely on a stormy day: [in the life to come,] they cannot achieve any benefit whatever from all [the good] that they may have wrought: for this [denial of God] is indeed the farthest one can go astray.
Quran 17:45-46 (God says) But [thus it is:] whenever thou recitest the Qur’an, We place an invisible barrier between thee and those who will not believe in the life to come: for, over their hearts We have laid veils which prevent them from grasping its purport, and into their ears, deafness. And so, whenever thou dost mention, while reciting the Qur’an, thy Sustainer as the one and only Divine Being, they turn their backs [upon thee] in aversion
Quran 23:99-100 [AS FOR THOSE who will not believe in the life to come, they go on lying to themselves] until, when death approaches any of them, he prays: “O my Sustainer! Let me return, let me return [to life], so that I might act righteously in whatever I have failed [aforetime]!’’ Nay, it is indeed but a [meaningless] word that he utters: for behind those [who leave the world] there is a barrier [of death] until the Day when all will be raised from the dead!
Quran 35:36-37 But as for those who are bent on denying the truth – the fire of hell awaits them: no end shall be put to their lives so that they could die, nor shall aught of the suffering caused by that [fire] be lightened for them: thus shall We requite all who are bereft of gratitude. And in that [hell] they will cry aloud: “O our Sustainer! Cause us to come out [of this suffering]! We shall [henceforth] do good deeds, not such as we were wont to do [aforetime]!” [But We shall answer:] “Did We not grant you a life long enough so that whoever was willing to take thought could bethink himself? And [withal,] a warner had come unto you! Taste, then, [the fruit of your evil deeds]: for evildoers shall have none to succour them!”
Quran 5:72-73 Indeed, the truth deny they who say, ‘Behold, God is the Christ, son of Mary’ – seeing that the Christ [himself] said, ‘O children of Israel! Worship God [alone], who is my Sustainer as well as your Sustainer.’ Behold, whoever ascribes divinity to any being beside God, unto him will God deny paradise, and his goal shall be the fire: and such evildoers will have none to succour them! Indeed, the truth deny they who say, ‘Behold, God is the third of a trinity’ – seeing that there is no deity whatever save the One God. And unless they desist from this their assertion, grievous suffering is bound to befall such of them as are bent on denying the truth
Preservation of Quran: God tells within Quran that he appointed Scribes who wrote Quranic revelations instantly when those revelations were downloaded on the heart of Prophet Mohammad, and at the same time, Quran was memorized by Prophet and his companions. God tells in Quran 54:40, that He has made Quran easy to memorize and understand. Of course Quran will not be easy for any Islamophobic hater who neither understand Arabic nor is he honest and unbiased in his research. A person who memorizes whole Quran (about 600 standard pages), is called Hafiz, and plural of Hafiz is Huffaaz. Huffaaz are a Check on Quranic Arabic text. Prophet Mohammad was first Hafiz of Quran; then his thousands companions became Hafiz, and that Memorization of Quran is continued for 1400 years without any break of even a fraction of second. It is like a River which flows 1400 km without any break. Today we have almost 50 million Huffaaz. If these all Huffaaz are gathered, and they become habitants of a new country; population of that new country will be more than Spain.
If you call a Hafiz from Moscow, 2nd from New York, 3rd from Australia, and 4th from Saudi Arabia; they all will recite same Quran which was recited by Prophet Mohammad 1400 years ago, because as we have mentioned above that in past 1400 years, memorization chain never broke even for a fraction of a second. O Man: do you not think that preservation of Quran is itself a great miracle! Fifty millions Huffaaz are a Check on Quran’s original Arabic Text. Will any Islamophobic hater change even one word of Quran; his tampering will be challenged and exposed by 50 millions Huffaaz.
If we throw all books and computer archives in Ocean; Quran will be right back. Just bring one Hafiz, and print whole Quran. Quran itself shows that Quran as Book was present during the era of Prophet Mohammad. Quran calls itself a Book several times. God also ordained in Quran “One should not touch Quran unless he is clean”. Now, a simple rational question arises, which is: can we touch a Book if that book is not present in a physical state! We suggest reader to visit this well researched page on the Compilation of Quran. Even unbiased Non-Muslim Researchers have accepted, that the Quran which we have today is same Quran which was in the hands of Mohammad 1400 years ago. Professor Dr. John Burton PhD was Professor on Islam. He was a non-Muslim. He wrote a book “The Collection of the Quran”. After in depth research, and after heavy rational argumentation; John Burton concluded in these words: That the Quran which we have today is same Quran which was with Mohmmad”
Quran 17:9 VERILY, this Qur’an shows the way to all that is most upright, and gives the believers who do good deeds the glad tiding that theirs will be a great reward
Many of you have already heard nonsensical cacophony of Islamophobic bigots, haters, and of some Atheists, in which they scream, that Quran has copied material from Torah, Bible and Zoroastrianism. This kind of dumb Idiots do not know even basics of Comparative Religion nor have they ever read and understood whole Quran with an honest unbiased mind. Truth is: final protected edition of all Scriptures “Quran” is the Truth of all truths. Fact is: from Adam to last prophet, Mohammad; God sent many prophets to different nations, and God bestowed upon them Divine Books/Scriptures, so that, people of that era should live according to law and ethical codes of that Scripture. So, it is clear, that Author of all Genuine Real Scriptures is same One God. When an author, publishes his new edition (next scripture), He always carries forward some material from previous editions to his new edition but author also drops that material which is outdated. Therefore; if Scriptures have some common passages, that is quite normal, and question of plagiarism never arises. Quran tells that Torah, Injeel (given to Jesus). and Psalm were also books of God. Quran also indicates indirectly in verse 22:17 that Zoroaster was also a Prophet of God who taught monotheism. Therefore, if we see commonality among some laws/codes of Quran, Zoroastrian Books, Torah and Christian’s books; that is not surprising at all because author of all Scriptures is one God.
He is God who told Zoroaster, Moses, Jesus, and Mohammad to teach followers that there only one God, there are angels; there is Paradise and Hell, there is day of Judgment, people must not break promise; they must not commit adultery, should give charity, should be honest and should not tell lies, tell people that God is Omniscient, Omnipotent, and Omnipresent, tell them that God is Creator of life, God is source of all goodness and happiness, — and if God has placed same codes in his last Book, Quran; then, how can these Islamophobic Bigots and haters can say that Mohammad had copied from Zoroastrians, Jews and Christians! Does it make any sense? Not at all. He is God who commanded Zoroaster, and he is God who commanded last Prophet Mohammad through Quran, and he is God who commanded Moses through Torah, and He is God who commanded Jesus through Injeel (not through anonymous books called Mark Matthew Luke and John). So, in all cases, Author of these all codes and commandments is God. Therefore, where is Plagiarism, O Hater!
However, when we talk on this subject; we must be cautious, because after Prophet Zoroaster, his teachings were corrupted. This is why, not all Zoroastrian practices are endorsed by Quran but Quran has endorsed only some those practices which were really taught by Prophet Zoroaster. In the same way, Quran only endorses some those teachings of Torah, Psalm, and Injeel which existed in uncorrupted Scriptures. This is why, God has called Quran Muhayman in verse 5:48 which means: a Book that superseded all previous scriptures, and also that means: a Supervisor over all, and a Corrector over all. God has also called Quran “Al-Furqan” which means: a Criterion between True and False. By using that Criterion, one can Judge degree of Truth and Corruption in Torah, Injeel and Avesta which exist today. Any passage of these previous books which is endorsed by Quran is the Real Passage of those previous Scriptures. And any passage of those old books which contradicts Quranic laws and codes is either outdated or a result of tampering. For example: during Hajj, Quran has permitted round of Safa Marwa but Quran has neither mentioned kissing of black stone nor have ordained we Muslims to walk seven rounds around Kaaba. Because Safa and Marwa rite is real Abrahamic rite of Hajj, so is included in Islamic Hajj but Quran has dropped rites of kissing black-stone and walking seven rounds around Kaaba because such rites were part of Hajj of Pre-Quranic Meccan Pagans (mushrikeen). If you discuss this point with Sunni and Shia sects, they will tell you that kissing black stone is Sunnah. They are big liars because Prophet, four Caliphs and all Companions of prophet left behind no any manuscript of Sunnah and Hadiths. They left only Quran. So, all books of Sunnah and Hadiths are fabricated books which have to do nothing with that Islam which has been finalized in Quran. Meaning of “Obey Allah and Rasool” is: to follow that Divine Book which God delivered to we people through his last Prophet, and name of that Book is Quran only 6:119, 6:114, 10:15. After landing of Quran, any rite, ritual or Islamic law (Sharia law) which does not have roots in Quran , is not part of Islam.
Being the final edition of all Scriptures, Quran has carried forward almost all dietary laws of Original Torah but Quran has never said that God created man in his own image as we see in Genesis of today. But Quran says: nothing is like God. So, it is clear here, that, that verse of Genesis which tells that God created man in his own image is 100% Fabricated. You see, how does Quran correct all previous scriptures. Quran tells that Jesus was no more than a Prophet of God 5:75 but Four Hadiths Books of Christians Mark, Matthew, Luke and John show that Jesus was god and also son of god. These verses of those four hadith books of Christians 100% contradict Quranic laws; therefore, it is clear that such verses of Gospels are fabricated. On the Contrary, these gospels tell that Jesus was very much alive even after the incident of Cross, and he made over 10 meetings with disciples even after the incidence of Cross, and he ate bread and fish with disciples to show them that he is human Jesus; not Soul/Spirit of Jesus. This clearly shows that Jesus did not die on the Cross, and same is told by Quran that Jesus did not die on the Cross in 4:157. Please note: verse 4:157 never denies nailing of Jesus on the Cross but verse 4:157 denies crucifixion of Jesus because according to definition of Crucifixion, death on the Cross is binding condition of punishment which is called Crucifixion. If a person is removed from the Cross before his death; then that person is not Crucified. For full in-depth discussion on this subject, please read our page at: https://wp.me/p4GOwI-rN
Also note that Torah never commanded Jews to pray three rituals daily. Those rituals were created in Judaism by Jewish Council of Rabbis “Sanhedrin”. It is important to note that Prophet Zoroaster forbade his follower from Ritualism. Prophet Zoroaster also never told his followers to pray five Namaz Rituals daily but these five Rituals were injected among Zoroastrians by one false Prophet “Hakeem Mani” and Magi, much later. And then Sunni and Shia sects copied these Five Zoroastrian Namaz rituals, and in order to legalize those Five Namaz Rituals in Islam, Pseudo Hadith Imams forged Hadith of Flying Horse – Buraq. Quranic Salat is not any kind of Ritual. In order to learn, what is Quranic Salat, please read our this page. http://wp.me/p4GOwI-6v
Before entering in Religious meetings, according to God’s commandments, it was teaching of Zoroaster to do wudhu, and wash body if required. Same True Practice of Prophet Zoroaster is endorsed by Quran, and Quran also tells to do wudhu and washing if required before attending any Ijtamah of Salat like weekly meeting of Salat on Friday. If Zoroastrians of today worship Fire; then that practice cannot be from Prophet Zoroaster because Quran forbids such practices. Prophet Zoroaster talked about Hell and Paradise, and Quran has endorsed it. Which means: that is told by God that there is Hell and Paradise. Zoroastrians of today say that there will be a Chinvat Bridge upon which all people will pass from this world to next world after death but Quran does not endorse this story; which means: that story of Chinvat Bridge might have been concocted. Please note, Prophet Mohammad and his all companions left behind only Quran. All books of Hadiths are Fabrications. Authors of those Fabricated Books have copied tons of fables from Talmud, Corrupted Gospels, and Corrupted Books of Zoroastrians. All those Rituals in which Person places his forehead on ground toward any city or Cube cannot be part of any Scripture because all scriptures including Quran make clear that God is Omnipresent which means: All directions belong to God, and God is not confined in any one Cube or any one City.
According to Quran 3:19, 3:85, one God has only one True Path which was preached by all Prophets, and name of that path is “Islam”. According to Quran, Moses and Jesus were also Prophets of Islam. All Original Scriptures were Scriptures of Islam, which have been superseding each other with time. Being the Final edition of all Scriptures, Quran carries forward all those laws of previous scriptures which are not outdated. Quran has also abrogated some laws of previous scriptures which are outdated 2:105-106. Quran also updates Divine law. Therefore; after consigning all previous scriptures to oblivion, Quran has superseded all previous scriptures 5:48. So, after landing of Quran, all humans are bound to follow only that Divine law which has been finalized in Quran.
In addition to 2:105-106, 5:48; verses 28:52…28:54 also show us: that after landing of Quran, “people of Book” are bound to believe in Quran and follow it.
Quran 28:52…28:54 “As for those unto whom We have vouchsafed revelation aforetime – they [are bound to] believe in this one (Quran).” and whenever it is [clearly] conveyed unto them, they [are bound to] profess, “We have come to believe in it, for, behold, it is the truth from our Sustainer – and, verily, even before this, we were Muslims. These it is that shall receive a twofold reward for having been patient in adversity, and having repelled evil with good, and having spent on others out of what We provided for them as sustenance.”
Note: According to Quran, all Prophets were Prophets of Islam and all their True Followers were named by God “Muslims” 22:78, 42:13, 2:133, 3:19, 3:67, 3:85, 3:52. When a Non-Muslim reverts to Islam, in most cases he/she might face opposition and harsh behavior from his non-Muslim family and society. Therefore; in lieu of that hardship, Allah Jalla Aala has kept for them Double Reward. When we read 2:105-106, 5:48 and 28:52…28:54, it becomes crystal clear that being final edition of all scriptures, Quran has superseded all previous scriptures, and after landing of Quran, all humans are bound to follow only that Divine law which has been finalized in Quran.
Syed: The spherical shape of the Earth is indicated in following ayat of the Quran.
Allah says in Quran: He created the heavens and earth in truth. He rolls/wraps (Yukawweru) the night over the day and rolls/wraps (Yukawweru) the day over the night and has subjected the sun and the moon, all move (Kullun Yajrii) to a specified term. Unquestionably, He is the Exalted in Might, the Perpetual Forgiver. (39:5)
Here the word Yukawweru is present tense of Kawwara which means to roll into a ball, to make round, ball shaped (See Hans Wehr Dictionary). Here Allah is mentioning how night and day wrap/rolls around the Earth like a ball. If you look from space, one hemisphere is dark (night) and the other is bright (day) and when the Earth rotates about its axis, day and night continuously wrap/rolls around the globe. In fact this is the best possible description of how day and night change into each other. See the realistic video below:
Another interesting point to consider here is that when Allah mentioned that “all move to a specified term”, He did not use the dual form of verb which would have been “Kulahuma Yajriian” which would have meant that only two bodies i.e. Sun and Moon are moving while Earth is stationary (which was the popularly held belief at the time Quran was revealed). Instead Allah used the plural form which indicates 3 or more i.e. “Kullun Yajrii” hence indicating that all three i.e. Earth, Sun and Moon are moving. Thus by mentioning that everything is moving, Quran does away with geocentric or heliocentric model of the Universe.
Second Ayah:
O company of jinn and mankind, if you are able to pass beyond the regions (Aqtar) of the heavens and the earth, then pass. You will not pass except by authority [from Allah ]. (55:33)
The word Aqtar is plural of Qutr which means, in addition to regions, diameter of a circle (See Hans Wehr Dictionary). Its plural form has been used which indicates that Earth is not a perfect sphere but has “Geoid” Shape, with varying diameters from Equator to Poles.
Imam Ibn Taymiyah (1263–1328) said:
“The heavenly bodies are spherical, according to the Muslim scholars among the Sahaabah and those who followed them in guidance; that was also proven from them with isnaads (narrations) mentioned in the appropriate places. In fact, more than one of the Muslim scholars narrated that there was consensus among the Muslims on that point.” (Minhaaj as-Sunnah an-Nabawiyyah (5/442)).
Quran 55:33 (word by word)O assembly (of) the jinn and the men! If you are able to pass beyond [of] (the) diameters (of) the heavens and the earth, then pass. Not you (can) pass except by authority.
Quran 55:33 (literal) You race/society (of) the Jinns and human/mankind, if you were able that (E) you penetrate/pierce from the skies’/space’s and the earth’s/Planet Earth’s diameters, so penetrate/pierce , you do not penetrate/pierce except with power/ authority
Also note that in verse 55:33 word Aqtaar is related to earth and Heavens. From 1400 years, even a 10 year old Arab boy knows that word Aqtaar is plural of word Qutar, and meaning of Qutar is “Diameter”. We all know that word Diameter is not relevant to any flat object or to any object which has four corners. But word “Qutar” is relevant only to a perfect circle. But, because due to being bulged on two poles; earth is not a Perfect Sphere. Therefore earth does not have jsut one diameter (Quta) but more than one Diameter (Qutar), and meaning of more than one diameter is: Diameters (Aqtaar), and same word Aqtaar is used in Quran 55:33. Therefore: Quranic word Aqtaar=Diameters shows that Earth is not a perfect Sphere but is a Sphere with more than one diameters; which means: It is Geo-Spheroid. Quran is a Book for People who do Tadabbar in Quran (deep thinking about verses through Quranic Tasreef).
Mohamed Ismail:
I heard an answer once from my science teacher while I was 12 years old, he was from upper Egypt and the word دحى means eggs, so he said that this is a prove that Allah said in Quran that the earth is not only as a sphere but it has a shape that resembles the egg or ellipsoid (the Earth is flattened at the poles and bulges at the equator)
Hamzah:
In English usually it is translated: “And after that, the earth: wide has He spread its expanse”. But Amazingly, the word Dahaha “دَحَاهَا” can be translated: ”extended in egg shape.” so, the translation can be: “And the earth, moreover, hath he extended in egg shape.” More amazingly, the word “دَحَا” (dahaa) is derived from word “دحية” (duhyah) which specifically means ”egg of ostrich” (not just any egg) which closely resembles the earth shape more than any other kind of egg shape.
Alessandro Re:
The strongest meaning of that verse, especially the word “dahaha” is eggshaped.
However, many translations refer to dahaha as “spread out” in order to confer the feeling of cradel for humanity; in which mankind can settle and live (hopefully/inshallah) peacefully.
Claims about the “earth spread out like a bed, meaning that there’s the flat-earth conception in the Qur’an” are false.
First of all because every single Islamic scholar has never thought of the earth being flat (not even those ultra-conservative ones). And we all know that Islam has very strong believers, they’d rather die in the ignorant belief of a flat earth if the Qur’an (God’s word) suggested so…but it doesn’t so we are good.
You either choose in believing in the translation that describes a “bed/cradle for humanity” or egg-shaped earth, it doesn’t really matter (to me).
Kaycee Kelechi Ikeru:
You must understand that this book was written a very long time ago, well over a millennium ago. It was also describing even older scientific concepts that were discovered without the use of modern technology. In my opinion, these ancient writer(s) made a miraculous effort at describing the nature of the world considering how relatively primitive they were supposed to be – and for their league, they did a darn good job, given the circumstances I just explained. In the light of the above mentioned ideas, thousands of translations and editions have been made to these holy writings, and meanings have been warped and obscured over the centuries. I was born a Christian but I must confess that the Quran to me is closer to science fact than even the Bible. Modern day scientists have argued that the earth isn’t absolutely/perfectly round but geoid in shape, this means that it is slightly flattened at the poles. For a person making this observation nearly two thousand years ago, I would say that the ostrich egg description for the time was pretty impressive.
Sima Mohammad:
In his book, The Qur’ân and the Orientalists, Dr. Muhammad Mohar Ali, former Professor of the History of Islam at the Islamic University of Madinah and Al-Imâm University in Riyadh, provides an extensive and detailed discussion on the Qur’anic view of the earth. Here is a relevant excerpt:
Now, the very first expression in the series, dahâhâ, is noticeably distinctive and different in genre from the rest. Watt, following many other previous translators, renders it as “spread out”. But the exact and correct meaning of the term, keeping in view its root, rather provides a very positive Qur’anic evidence in support of the spherical shape of the earth. For dahâ means to “shape like an egg”, its noun being dahiyah, which the Arabs still use to mean an egg.
Mahmoud Abdul:
The word “dahaha” “دحاها ” means “made in spherical shape” and is derived from the Root Arabic word Deh (دحى ) that means “to make in spherical shape and extend”.
Maha Riz:
HISTORICALLY, Muslims believed that earth is round, from very early period of time. Ibn Hazm (d. 1064 CE), wrote in his book al-Fisal, “I do not know of a single scholar worth the title of scholar who claims other than that the earth is round. Indeed the evidences in the Quran and Sunnah are numerous to this effect” [al-Fisal, v. 2 p. 78]. Muslim scientist Al Biruni (AD 973–1048) calculated radius of earth which not very far away of the value of the modern calculation of earth’s radius (read the caption of the picture). His radius was used by early Muslim scholars to find distance and direction of Ka’ba which was needed for prayer (and they developed spherical trigonometry that helped in this calculation). Even before him, astronomers of Caliph Al-Mamun measured meridian arc, from which earth’s circumference was measured (within 200 years of revelation of Quran).
“Lord of the two Easts, and Lord of the two Wests!” (Quran 55:17)
God has combined the East with West. Why? Why didn’t he say, “he is the lord of South and North?”. The Arabic word for East and West is actually linked with sunset and sunrise. When mankind believed that sunset and sunrise were two unlinked event, God has linked them. There is no East/sunrise without West/sunset. When Sun is setting in a point, it is rising in another point. It indicates two hemispheres (southern and northern). In a flat earth, you don’t find 2 points of sunset and 2 points of sunrise (on a given day). In round earth, for a still person there is 1 point of sunset (this place is sunrise point of another person) and 1 point of sunrise (this place is sunset point for another person).
“He created the heavens and the earth in [the] truth. He wraps/rolls the night over the day and wraps/rolls the day over the night…” (Quran 39:5)
The word “he wraps” (in Arabic “yukawwiru”) means wrapping in a round form like a turban is wrapped around head. It means, day and night wraps around the round earth.
One argument often mentioned by the anti-Quran group is, Quran mentions a prayer direction (toward Mecca), that is why earth is flat. Just a commandment to pray in certain direction doesn’t mean earth is flat. Quran clearly clarifies that piety doesn’t belong to facing toward east or west, since this prayer direction is only for the ease and unity of the congressional prayer arrangement in mosque. God can be encountered anywhere we face. Also, prayer direction is not unique feature of Islam, such commandment is found in other holy scripture such as Bible (I Kings 8:44, 48; II Chron. 6:34)
To God belong the East and the West; wherever you turn, there is the face of God. [Quran 2:115]
True piety does not consist in turning your faces towards the east or the west – (Quran 2:177)
Among other verses, the most common verse used to prove earth is flat by the anti-Quran group is: The One who has made the earth (“ard”) a resting place (“firashan”) (Quran 2:22). One meaning of “farsh” is carpet. So, the anti-Quran group places the argument that Quran says earth is flat, since you can’t place a carpet on spherical object (they should watch the “soccer ball cake tutorial” in youtube to know how fondant is placed on a cake which is a sphere).
According to Quran, this word simply means laid down or ground. It doesn’t indicate any flatness or shape. For example, the animals which are laid down for slaughter are described in following verse. Definitely, they are not flat as carpet. And of the cattle (are some for) burden and (some for) slaughter (“wafarshan”) (Quran 6:142)
According to Quran, “ard” also do not ONLY mean the whole globe, but also local land. For example: neither Byzantines were defeated in whole earth nor Dhur-qarnain was established on whole earth. There are plenty of verses where “ard” is used as local land. Defeated have been the Byzantines, in the lands close-by (“adna al-ardi”) ..(Quran 30:2–3)
Behold, We established him (Dhul-qarnain) securely on earth (“fee al-ardi”)..(Quran 18:84) they will reply, “We were oppressed in the land(“ard”).” The angels will respond, “Was Allah’s earth (“ard”) not spacious enough for you to emigrate?” (Quran 4:97)
You can see in the last verse, both local land and whole earth – are described by the same word “ard”. So, in many alleged flat-earth verses , actually local land is described (that look flat from our view point). Earth has been made to appear less curved around us, to help us build roads/way in LANDS.
“… has made for you the “ard” (=land) spread out, and has made for you roads (and channels) therein, in order that ye may find guidance (on the way);” (Quran 43:10)
“…And God has made the “ard” a wide expanse for you, so that you might walk thereon on spacious paths.” (Quran 71:19–20)
Similarly, the others words used for flat earth argument do NOT have exclusive meaning to make only the “flat earth”-interpretation valid, rejecting all other interpretation. You will find details in this link.
Med Sah:
You can spread out a mat on stairs, that doesn’t mean the stairs are flat. The early scholars of Islam believed earth to be a sphere, that’s enough to refute anyone that wants to force a flat earth interpretation of any verse of the Qur’an.
Victoria:
Quran 16:15 “He (God) has made mountains stand firm on the earth, to prevent it shaking under you, and rivers and paths so that you may find your way.”
In this verse, words “to prevent it shaking under you” indicate that that Earth is spinning because a spinning body is balanced by weights. If Body is Stationary, then preventing it from shaking does not make any sense. If you have been driving a car/automobile, then you already know, why are car wheels balanced by lead pieces. Those are balanced to prevent Shaking of your car wheels. Same principle applies to any circular or any spherical shape. So pegged Mountains are also balancing rotation of earth to prevent it from shaking under your feet. Second Balancing is done by keeping core of earth in liquid state.
We also see in Quran 21:33 and 36:40 that concerning floating in their orbits; if Quran was pointing toward only Sun and Moon, then Quran had used Arabic word KulloHoMa=Both of them float but instead, in both verses 21:33, 36:40, Quran has used word “KulloHum” which mean: all planets float in their orbits. But many translators translate word KulloHum as “Each-one” which is wrong. Meaning of word “Kullohum” is not ‘each one” but is “All”.
