| Surah 16:65: And Allah sends down rain from the sky, giving life | |

| Surah 23:1-9: '1. Successful indeed are the believers: 2. those | |

| Surah 23:18: We send down rain from the sky in perfect measure, | |

| Surah 24:21: �O believers! Do not follow the footsteps of Satan. | |
| Whoever follows Satan�s footsteps, then let them know that he | |

| He regard your adopted children as your real children. These are | |
| only your baseless assertions. But Allah declares the truth, and | |
| He alone guides to the Right Way. 5. Let your adopted children | |
| keep their family names. That is more just in the sight of | |
| Allah. But if you do not know their fathers, then they are | |
| simply your fellow believers and close associates. There is no | |
| blame on you for what you do by mistake, but only for what you | |
| do intentionally. And Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful. 6. | |
| The Prophet has a stronger affinity to the believers than they | |
| do themselves. And his wives are their mothers. As ordained by | |
| Allah, blood relatives are more entitled to inheritance than | |
| other believers and immigrants, unless you want to show kindness | |
| to your close associates through bequest. This is decreed in the | |
| Record. 7. And remember when We took a covenant from the | |
| prophets, as well as from you O Prophet, and from Noah, Abraham, | |
| Moses, and Jesus, son of Mary. We did take a solemn covenant | |
| from all of them 8. so that He may question these men of truth | |

| [quote]Surah 38:71-85: �71. Remember, O Prophet when your Lord | |

| Own creation breathed into him, fall down in prostration to | |
| him.� 73. So the angels prostrated all together� 74. but not | |
| Ibl�s, who acted arrogantly, becoming unfaithful. 75. Allah | |
| asked, �O Ibl�s! What prevented you from prostrating to what I | |
| created with My Own Hands? Did you just become proud? Or have | |
| you always been arrogant?� 76. He replied, �I am better than he | |
| is: You created me from fire and him from clay.� 77. Allah | |
| commanded, �Then get out of Paradise, for you are truly cursed. | |
| 78. And surely upon you is My condemnation until the Day of | |

| delayed 81. Until the appointed Day.� 82. Satan said, �By Your | |

| "Allah is describing his control over the weather, which tells | |
| me he's being compared to Yahweh. I posted this because you had | |
| me delete a passage where Allah is described as 'sending down | |
| rain from the sky.'" | |
| "Yahweh is the one who sends 'compelling signs' from heaven, not | |
| Allah." | |
| "Allah creating angels is Judaic." | |
| "Allah is described as being able to manipulate water, which is | |
| something Yahweh does." | |
| A hacker is not necessarily the same person as the coder. | |
| With that said: | |
| [quote]Surah 42:28. He is the One Who sends down rain after | |
| people have given up hope, spreading out His mercy. He is the | |
| Guardian, the Praiseworthy. 29. And among His signs is the | |
| creation of the heavens and the earth, and all living beings He | |
| dispersed throughout both. And He is Most Capable of bringing | |
| all together whenever He wills.�[/quote] | |
| 29 is Judaic. But 28 is not. | |
| [quote] [quote] Surah 13:38: �We have certainly sent | |
| messengers before you O Prophet and blessed them with wives and | |
| offspring. It was not for any messenger to bring a sign without | |
| Allah�s permission. Every destined matter has a set time.� | |
| [/quote] | |
| The 'messengers' include Abraham, Moses, Noah, etc.[/quote] | |
| This verse does not mention who the messengers are. You are | |
| applying your own preconceptions to it. | |
| [quote] [quote]Surah 16:49: 'And to Allah alone bows down in | |
| submission whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the | |
| earth of living creatures, as do the angels� who are not too | |
| proud to do so.'[/quote] | |
| This passage reminds me of the Iblis story.[/quote] | |
| You are illiterate. The Iblis story was about Iblis refusing to | |
| bow to Adam. From your own earlier quote: | |
| [quote]So the angels prostrated all together� 31. but not Ibl�s, | |
| who refused to prostrate with the others. 32. Allah asked, �O | |
| Ibl�s! What is the matter with you that you did not join others | |
| in prostration?� 33. He replied, �It is not for me to prostrate | |
| to a human You created from sounding clay moulded from black | |
| mud.�[/quote] | |
| Iblis' refusal to bow to Adam is in fact consistent with 16:49, | |
| since Iblis is in effect refusing to bow to someone other than | |
| Allah. | |
| [quote] [quote]Surah 16:98: 'When you recite the Qur'an, seek | |
| refuge with Allah from Satan, the accursed.'[/quote] | |
| Satan is Iblis, who is, in fact, Lucifer. Lucifer is the good | |
| guy.[/quote] | |
| This verse does not explicitly equate Satan with Iblis. You are | |
| applying your own preconceptions to it. | |
| "I put this as Judaic because it mentions Gog and Magog, which | |
| appears in the Tanakh." | |
| It is possible to use mythical elements from the Tanakh without | |
| endorsing its worldview. | |
| "Allah is giving permission for slaveowners to have sex with | |
| (r�pe) their female slaves." | |
| "Female slaves can be married, but I don't see any mention of | |
| them being freed." | |
| This does not necessarily imply a Judaic origin. Please follow | |
| procedure. We are currently only removing Judaic verses. | |
| [quote] [quote]Surah 29:46: �Do not argue with the People of | |
| the Book unless gracefully, except with those of them who act | |
| wrongfully. And say, �We believe in what has been revealed to us | |
| and what was revealed to you. Our Allah and your Allah is only | |
| One. And to Him we fully submit.��[/quote] | |
| The 'People of the Book' includes Jews.[/quote] | |
| This verse does not explicitly say this. You are applying your | |
| own preconceptions to it. | |
| [quote] [quote]Surah 33:32: �O wives of the Prophet! You are | |
| not like any other women: if you are mindful of Allah, then do | |
| not be overly effeminate in speech with men or those with | |
| sickness in their hearts may be tempted, but speak in a moderate | |
| tone.�[/quote] | |
| Subjugation of women.[/quote] | |
| You are illiterate. This verse is proclaiming the superiority of | |
| low sexual dimorphism. | |
| "Parents should not be allowed into Paradise." | |
| Mohammed himself was a parent, and said he would be going to | |
| Paradise. | |
| "Allah is not punishing these couples for procreating." | |
| Allah understands that we are at war. If the followers of | |
| Mohammed had reproduced more during Mohammed's time, perhaps the | |
| Islamic armies could have won at Poitiers, and then the | |
| Renaissance and consequently the Industrial Revolution could | |
| have been prevented from ever occurring. How many more births | |
| could then have been prevented? | |

| punishment. 98. If only there had been a society which believed | |

| Ⱬul-Qarnain. Say, �I will relate to you something of his | |

| him the means to all things. 85. So he traveled a course, 86. | |
| until he reached the setting point of the sun, which appeared to | |
| him to be setting in a spring of murky water, where he found | |
| some people. We said, �O Ⱬul-Qarnain! Either punish them | |

| will punish them with a horrible torment. 88. As for those who | |
| believe and do good, they will have the finest reward, and we | |
| will assign them easy commands.� 89. Then he traveled a | |
| different course 90. until he reached the rising point of the | |
| sun. He found it rising on people for whom We had provided no | |
| shelter from it. 91. So it was. And We truly had full knowledge | |
| of him. 92. Then he traveled a third course 93. until he reached | |
| a pass between two mountains. He found in front of them a people | |
| who could hardly understand his language. 94. They pleaded, �O | |
| Ⱬul-Qarnain! Surely Gog and Magog are spreading | |
| corruption throughout the land. Should we pay you tribute, | |
| provided that you build a wall between us and them?� 95. He | |
| responded, �What my Lord has provided for me is far better. But | |
| assist me with resources, and I will build a barrier between you | |
| and them. 96. Bring me blocks of iron!� Then, when he had filled | |
| up the gap between the two mountains, he ordered, �Blow!� When | |
| the iron became red hot, he said, �Bring me molten copper to | |
| pour over it.� 97. And so the enemies could neither scale nor | |
| tunnel through it. 98. He declared, �This is a mercy from my | |
| Lord. But when the promise of my Lord comes to pass, He will | |
| level it to the ground. And my Lord�s promise is ever | |
| true.��[/quote] | |
