What do you think "every animal imaginable " means? |

So according to the tafsir, God in the Quran said to Abraham that people will come to him via "any type of means of travel/communication, imaginable". Do you agree with this interpretation? |

Go and take another look of the tafsir that I referred you on page 1 of this topic. I just duplicate it here, just in case...When the Pilgrimage was proclaimed, people came to it from every quarter, near and far, on foot and mounted. The "lean camel" coming after a fatiguing journey through distant mountain roads typifies the difficulties of travel, which Pilgrims disregard on account of the temporal and spiritual benefits referred to in the next verse.

Funnily enough, this interpretation also gives a timeline, stating �when the pilgrimage was proclaimed��, which would disqualify it from being a prophecy of the future. When it was proclaimed, people allegedly came to it �from every quarter, near and far�� I doubt they truly came from �every quarter, near and far�. The world is bigger than Arabia. |

Pilgrimage for the Muslim as per the teachings of Prophet Mohammad, though it was already in vogue before him, but he corrected some of its pagan rituals.

This doesn't explain how people were coming "from every quarter, near and far", "when the pilgrimage was proclaimed". The pilgrimage was proclaimed by Abraham. People did not come to him "from every quarter, near and far". They came maybe from all over Arabia. There are many more locations than just from all over Arabia.
