Proving Islam

@RevelationsLost I disagree. I will flesh everything out in a video إن شاء الله

[Proving Islam @provingislam]

A comparison by me between what Elijah says to King Ahab in 1 Kings 18:18 (per the LXX) and what Elijah says to his people in Surah 37:125-126.

They are so close that it almost comes across as a direct quote.

[Proving Islam @provingislam]

@RevelationsLost how is it correcting it?

[Proving Islam @provingislam]

@haruninho10 Brother I’m not sure what this reply is about?

I wasn’t posting this to argue that Kings is a reliable book but to show that the Quran knows of the events recorded in 1 Kings.

@mohammed_hijab @alUkbari Brother, your laughing is what gave the impression of belittlement.

“Some ppl laugh laugh called him Taqī al-Dīn”.

If that wasn’t your intention no problem but brother al-ukbari made a natural inference.

[Proving Islam @provingislam]

@Abdulla63895964 I don’t think it’s a quote. That’s why I said “almost”. But there’s a lot of overlap to the point that one concludes the Qur’an “knows” how Elijah spoke to his people.

@sairaf21 Augustine couldn’t even read Hebrew. You’re appealing to him as a more qualified exegete of Proverbs than seculars and rabbis who at least know Hebrew. Even I know more Hebrew than augustine.

His stance on jerome is completely irrelevant to his qualification as an exegete.

[Proving Islam @provingislam]

The Cananites considered El to have a wife (asherah) & children (like baal and mot).

Quraysh believed that Allah had wives (the jinn) & children (angels like lat & manat).

Christians saying that Jesus is Elohim's child is just another variation of this same satanic trick.

[Proving Islam @provingislam]

@sairaf21 So a guy who can’t even read the original wording is somehow more qualified than every other exegete. That’s your argument.

[Proving Islam @provingislam]

@sairaf21 Augustine couldn’t even speak Hebrew. Why should I take from him?

[Proving Islam @provingislam]

@sairaf21 No but appealing to augustine is meaningless. He’s a christian. Besides. his exegesis is often very poor. That goes for the church fathers in general.

[Proving Islam @provingislam]

@sairaf21 Ibn ezra is not 20th century.

[Proving Islam @provingislam]

@sairaf21 The sarcasm being something like “tell me what family he has so i can further look for this person?!”

[Proving Islam @provingislam]

@sairaf21 That’s just handwaiving. And in this case, his interpretation is obvious and traditional- rabbis agree with it.

The point of asking the son’s name is to further confirm that no such human exists. It is further sarcastically highlighting how no such human exists…

[Proving Islam @provingislam]

@sairaf21 Its sarcastic.

This might help you;

[Proving Islam @provingislam]

@sairaf21 This verse in context is asking which human has done all these things. The answer to every question is in the negative.

@Phemmy070 👍

[Proving Islam @provingislam]

@Phemmy070 You’ll be surprised

[Proving Islam @provingislam]

@Phemmy070 It’s about the injil at that time.

[Proving Islam @provingislam]

@Phemmy070 You need this book

[Deen @Deenresponds]

My Books release is fast approaching in sha Allah. If anyone wants to pre order it just dm me here on twitter with your email in sha Allah.

Here’s a brief summary of my book:

A whole range of topics surrounding the Injil will be covered.

I’ll be discussing the two major positions and explaining why I personally hold to mine.

I’ll also be laying out intertexts between the Quran and the Gospels to demonstrate that the Quran has detailed knowledge of the Gospel traditions. Indirectly, this also addresses the argument that the Qur’an supposedly made a mistake by assuming it was not contradicting previous scripture when denying the crucifixion of Jesus or other things that may contradict with the Gospels.

Finally, I grade all the sayings attributed to Jesus into different categories based on their level of compatibility:

1) Heavy intertexts with the Qur’an and Islamic tradition

2) Generally Islamic themes

3) Neutral everyday statements
from Jesus, such as “get me a cup of water”

4) Statements that may initially seem un-Islamic and require Tawil (reinterpretation), but can still be reconciled

5) Statements that cannot be reconciled at all

Alongside these gradings, I include footnotes explaining possible reconciliations, relevant intertexts, and the reasoning behind each grading. The book currently has around 400 footnotes (a good portion are repeated due to overlap and parallel material between the Gospels).

I will also have a grading section for the Q Gospel following the grading section for the four canonical Gospels.

For whatever cannot be reconciled, I will be presenting historical arguments against its historicity at the end, without presupposing Islam.

Pricing for the book will likely be somewhere around $30 USD, though nothing is finalized yet.

If any publishing houses are interested in publishing translations in other languages, such as Spanish or Arabic, I’m open to that as well, just DM me.

BarakAllahu feekum for all the support. I pray Allah allows me to complete this project, allows people to benefit from it immensely, and uses me for many more future publications.

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته

@akchdhry @sebastien_c123 I have an interpretation for that hadith.

It says وَغُبَّرَاتٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ

So i wonder if is saying a group of ahlul kitab remained— not all of them?

But this has to be verified by someone qualified.
