| [quote]Ayat 2-3: �2. All praise is for God�Lord of all worlds, | |

| In my view, whenever the Qur'an praises Allah as the 'Lord of | |
| All Worlds' or 'the sole inheritor of the heavens and the | |
| earth', that implies that He created the heavens and the earth, | |
| which is a Judaic belief. | |

| With the 'male and female' aside, the Qur'an is acknowledging | |
| gender differences, which was done in the book of Genesis. | |

| "In my view, whenever the Qur'an praises Allah as the 'Lord of | |
| All Worlds' or 'the sole inheritor of the heavens and the | |
| earth', that implies that He created the heavens and the earth, | |
| which is a Judaic belief." | |
| It does not imply what you claim. On the contrary, "inheritor" | |
| implies a time (prior to inheritance) when the world was not yet | |
| ruled by Allah, which would make no sense if Allah was the | |
| creator. Thus it actually implies that someone else (the one | |
| from whom Allah will inherit the world) is the creator. | |
| "The 'Scripture' mentioned includes the Torah." | |
| Where is this explicitly stated? If it is in another verse, then | |
| that verse could have been added, which does not invalidate this | |
| one. | |
| "With the 'male and female' aside, the Qur'an is acknowledging | |
| gender differences, which was done in the book of Genesis." | |
| I also acknowledge gender differences. You cannot cure a disease | |
| without first acknowledging it! That verse is merely saying that | |
| being victims of this disease will not prevent us from being | |
| treated fairly during judgement. | |
| Before I continue checking, would you mind removing all verses | |
| lower down the document which you have included based on the | |
| same reasoning under which you included the verses above, and | |
| then posting an updated version of the document? Thanks. | |

| Also, you still haven't removed the following verses which I | |
| explicitly pointed out previously: | |
| [quote]Ayat 2-3: �2. All praise is for God�Lord of all worlds, | |
| 3. the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful,�[/quote] | |
| [quote]Ayah 79: �It is not appropriate for someone who God has | |

| I will continue checking after these have been removed. | |

| Done, but I just want you to know that you're allowing Judaic | |
| passages in the Qur'an. Qur'an 3:48 says so: | |
| [quote]Ayat 48-50: �48. �And God will teach him writing and | |
| wisdom, the Torah and the Gospel, 49. and make him a messenger | |
| to the Children of Israel to proclaim, �I have come to you with | |
| a sign from your Lord: I will make for you a bird from clay, | |
| breathe into it, and it will become a real bird�by God�s Will. I | |
| will heal the blind and the leper and raise the dead to life�by | |
| God�s Will. And I will prophesize what you eat and store in your | |
| houses. Surely in this is a sign for you if you truly believe. | |
| 50. And I will confirm the Torah revealed before me and legalize | |
| some of what had been forbidden to you. I have come to you with | |
| a sign from your Lord, so be mindful of God and obey | |
| me.�[/quote] | |

| I already explained: | |
| https://trueleft.createaforum.com/volunteer/drafting-up-a-jamia/msg15285/#msg15… | |
| [quote]If it is in another verse, then that verse could have | |
| been added, which does not invalidate this one.[/quote] | |
| So I am not asking you to keep this verse: | |
| [quote]Ayat 48-50: �48. �And God will teach him writing and | |
| wisdom, the Torah [/quote] | |
| but having removed this verse, a verse such as: | |
| [quote]Ayah 79: �It is not appropriate for someone who God has | |
| blessed with the Scripture[/quote] | |
| is fine because there is now no verse that implies "Scripture" | |
| refers to the Torah. Get it? | |
| Moving on: | |
| [quote]Ayah 44: �Have you O Prophet not seen those who were | |
| given a portion of the Scriptures yet trade it for misguidance | |
| and wish to see you deviate from the Right Path?�[/quote] | |
| Same thing. Please remove this and all others lower down in the | |
| document that you previously included on account of the term | |
| "Scripture" alone. | |
