Modern science shows that they never existed in a literal sense. So at least in this respect the Bible (as well as the Quran) is wrong. If God was almighty (is he in your eyes ?) he would not make this kind of error. Airmano Edited by airmano - 22 June 2015 at 11:48am |

The word God is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses (Albert Einstein 1954, in his "Gods Letter")

If anyone think or believe that the Bible is not the word of God, please step out and tell me why you say so.

Many Christian scholars agree that it is not the word of God entirely. It contains parts that might be word of God, but the overwhelming evidence that is the inconsistencies within suggests man's handiwork.

The friends of God will certainly have nothing to fear, nor will they be grieved. Al Quran 10:62

Who will decide when a verse is as good as or better than what is in the Torah or Quran? If one cannot innovate you're stuck in the 7th century so the teaching only applies to that setting |

Chalky!
I did not mention this book to you: ISBN 9781872531-652/656. You may also see ISBN 978-1467883931. Understand that reading one or two books does not make you understand Islam. The best source is to read many Arabic texts on a particular subject. Friendship. |

1. There is no mention in the Bible of Adam or Abraham praying these prayers. It would appear to be a fiction. 2. Solomon is not mentioned in the Torah as it was written long before he was even born. 3. As I understand it you don't have copies of the injeel and never have so you cannot know what is in it. |

Well in general it is almost impossible to know who created differences. Nothing can be said about the text of Uthman since no verifiable copies still exist. In any case one supposed that There was a text before Uthman or more likely several texts. |

some don't. For example, here is a case where there is a difference in
the word and its meaning. An example is found in Q 56.29 where the word
talhin (a massive thorny tree found in Hijaz) was substituted with the
word tal'in (bananas). Another example is found in Q2:36 where the word
fa'azallahuma (he made them slip) was substituted by the word fawaswasa
(hc whispered).
Response: I am sure the author did not mention who and when that mistake was made. certainly not in the text of Uthman. Now, a reciter often makes mistake reciting the Qur'an from memory especially the long verses. I do that often. Thus why it is advisable top recite the Qur'an directly from the script. Sometimes one can change past to present, singular to plural etc while reciting from memory. Note you are suppose to understand what you are reciting. For example Umar recited fam duu and not fas aw. But he was corrected. We do not hide facts in explaining the history of Islam. Friendship. |
