| [quote]Ayah 38: �As for male and female thieves, cut off their | |

| Almighty, All-Wise.�[/quote] | |
| [quote]Ayah 40: �40. Do you not know that the kingdom of the | |
| heavens and the earth belongs to God alone? He punishes whoever | |
| He wills and forgives whoever He wills. And God is Most Capable | |
| of everything.' [/quote] | |
| These should already have been removed. I already asked you to | |
| do this here: | |
| https://trueleft.createaforum.com/volunteer/drafting-up-a-jamia/msg15285/#msg15… | |
| and you assured me it was done: | |
| https://trueleft.createaforum.com/volunteer/drafting-up-a-jamia/msg15291/#msg15… | |
| So why am I still finding verses like these? | |
| Also: | |
| [quote]116. And on Judgment Day God will say, �O Jesus, son of | |
| Mary! Did you ever ask the people to worship you and your mother | |
| as gods besides God?� He will answer, �Glory be to You! How | |
| could I ever say what I had no right to say? If I had said such | |
| a thing, you would have certainly known it. You know what is | |
| hidden within me, but I do not know what is within You. Indeed, | |
| You alone are the Knower of all unseen. 117. I never told them | |
| anything except what You ordered me to say: �Worship God�my Lord | |
| and your Lord!� And I was witness over them as long as I | |
| remained among them. But when You took me, You were the Witness | |
| over them�and You are a Witness over all things. 118. If You | |
| punish them, they belong to You after all. But if You forgive | |
| them, You are surely the Almighty, All-Wise.��[/quote] | |
| Why this one? | |

| Done. There was a synchronization error. I would also like to | |
| point out that Google Docs allows anyone with a link with Editor | |
| permissions to edit documents themselves, so feel free to make | |
| any changes to the document yourself. There were some verses | |
| that I couldn't remove from some of the passages to preserve | |
| full context. | |
| [quote]Why this one?[/quote] | |
| Wanted to have the entire passage for context. Removed. | |

| "Done." | |
| Are you sure? | |
| [quote]Ayat 12-14: �12. Ask them, O Prophet, �To whom belongs | |
| everything in the heavens and the earth?� Say, �To God!� He has | |
| taken upon Himself to be Merciful. He will certainly gather all | |
| of you together for the Day of Judgment�about which there is no | |
| doubt. But those who have ruined themselves will never believe. | |
| 13. To Him belongs whatever exists in the day and night. And He | |
| is the All-Hearing, All- Knowing.[/quote] | |
| If it was really done, I would not have found this verse. Try | |
| again. | |
| "feel free to make any changes to the document yourself." | |
| The point of me checking your work in public is to expose the | |
| poor work ethic that has hampered our movement year after year. | |
| Now everyone can understand how it literally takes me more time | |
| to help volunteers do the work assigned to them than it would | |
| have taken me to do the same work myself, which is the opposite | |
| of what division of labour should be about. | |

| "Removed." | |
| And then immediately I found: | |
| [quote]Ayat 59: �With Him are the keys of the unseen�no one | |
| knows them except Him. And He knows what is in the land and sea. | |
| Not even a leaf falls without His knowledge, nor a grain in the | |
| darkness of the earth or anything�green or dry�but is written in | |
| a perfect Record.�[/quote] | |
| The point is not for me to point out one by one which verses | |
| need to be removed, but for me to point out a certain line of | |
| reasoning for removal and then for you to remove all the verses | |
| in the document which fall under that same line of reasoning. | |
| Please make sure I don't find any more after this one before | |
| replying again. | |

| @90sRetroFan Would you consider a verse like this: [quote]To | |
| Allah alone bow down in submission all those in the heavens and | |
| the earth�willingly or unwillingly�as do their shadows, morning | |
| and evening. [/quote] | |
| To be Judaic? | |

| OK, I went through the entire document and removed the requested | |
| verses, but there were some I couldn't remove (e.g. Qur'an 41:9) | |
| because they were either in the same verse as a Judaic passage | |
| or their removal would've also removed the context of the | |
| passage, so instead of deleting those verses altogether, I have | |
| disemboldened them. Please let me know if there are any I | |
| missed. | |

| Not necessarily Judaic, but not necessarily Mohammedan either. | |
| We can get back to this after we have removed all the Judaic | |
| verses first. | |
| "Please let me know if there are any I missed." | |
| [quote]Ayah 11: �Remember when He caused drowsiness to overcome | |

| [quote]Ayah 48: �And remember when Satan made their evil deeds | |
| appealing to them, and said, �No one can overcome you today. I | |
| am surely by your side.� But when the two forces faced off, he | |
| cowered and said, �I have absolutely nothing to do with you. I | |
| certainly see what you do not see. I truly fear Allah, for Allah | |
| is severe in punishment.��[/quote] | |
| I am sure there are more. Please try to find them yourself. | |

| I'll keep looking. I'll also post suggestions for passages | |
| slated for deletion. | |
