I only have 20 pages.
54 for me
is this 50 pages pre-publication leak same as that 20 pages one? may be he is writing book chapters ... or up for that internal review for the job....
..... the usual dingo scheme in Academics.. ..
.....
I knew I got it: it is a draft of 54 pages.Please do not quote or cite without author’s permission
I do not want to quote it (yawn...), do not ask me why.
what is in it to Quote? there are plenty of Quran stories from Academics out there as publications in libraries
Anyways Altara giving me new ideas on Quran.....
There is no contradiction ; they have some Quranic texts (among them 2,127) totally outisde of the Mecca/Zem Zem frame. How they got them? Allow me to say that it is not the place here to talk about that (for me...) I have, (of course) an explication...
I'll do no commentary. Why not? But you have to ground this idea.
One of these things was building mosques with Qiblas to the south (not to Jeruslaem, not to Mecca). We see from early on that their own mosques were built. Someone must of directed people to perform according to a specific ideology that you see connected to the Quran (eg 2:127).
The sole ideology of 2:127 is that Ishmael, therefore Arabs, are allowed by God to build something on the Temple Mount to pray God, as did (falsely...) Ishmael with his father Abraham in 2:127.
Falsely? Yes. The Quran lies when it need it for its agenda
now you are making me to re-read Quran dear Altara ., but on those deleted words
.................
Yes. The Quran lies when it need it for its agenda...........
why you say that
Quranic authors were lying on that verse or around that verse?? [2.120 ] And the Jews will not be pleased with you, nor the Christians until you follow their religion. Say: Surely Allah’s guidance, that is the (true) guidance. And if you follow their desires after the
knowledge that has come to you, you shall have no guardian from Allah, nor any helper.
[2.121 ] Those to whom We have given the Book read it as it ought to be read. These believe in it; and whoever disbelieves in it, these it is that are the losers.
[2.122] O children of Israel, call to mind My favor which I bestowed on you and that I made you excel the nations.
[2.123 ] And.be on your guard against a day when no soul shall avail another in the least neither shall any compensation be accepted from it, nor shall intercession profit it, nor shall they be helped.
[2.124] And when his Lord tried Ibrahim with certain words, he fulfilled them. He said: Surely I will make you an Imam of men. Ibrahim said: And of my offspring? My covenant does not include the unjust, said He.
[2.125] And when We made the House a pilgrimage for men and a (place of) security, and: Appoint for yourselves a place of prayer on the standing-place of Ibrahim. And We enjoined Ibrahim and Ismail saying: Purify My House for those who visit (it) and those who abide (in it) for devotion and those who bow down (and) those who prostrate themselves.
[2.126] And when Ibrahim said: My Lord, make it a secure town and provide its people with fruits, such of them as believe in Allah and the last day. He said: And whoever disbelieves, I will grant him enjoyment for a short while, then I will drive him to the chastisement of the fire; and it is an evil destination.
[2.127 ] And when Ibrahim and Ismail raised the foundations of the House: Our Lord! accept from us; surely Thou art the Hearing, the Knowing:
[2.128 ] Our Lord! and make us both submissive to Thee and (raise) from our offspring a nation submitting to Thee, and show us our ways of devotion and turn to us (mercifully), surely Thou art the Oft-returning (to mercy), the Merciful.
[2.129 ] Our Lord! and raise up in them an Apostle from among them who shall recite to them Thy communications and teach them the Book and the wisdom, and purify them; surely Thou art the
Mighty, the Wise.
[2.130] And who forsakes the religion of Ibrahim but he who makes himself a fool, and most certainly We chose him in this world, and in the hereafter he is most surely among the righteous.
[2.131] When his Lord said to him, Be a Muslim, he said: I submit myself to the Lord of the worlds.
[2.132 ] And the same did Ibrahim enjoin on his sons and (so did) Yaqoub. O my sons! surely Allah has chosen for you (this) faith, therefore die not unless you are Muslims.
[2.133] Nay! were you witnesses when death visited Yaqoub, when he said to his sons: What will you serve after me? They said: We will serve your God and the God of your fathers, Ibrahim and Ismail and Ishaq, one God only, and to Him do we submit.
[2.134] This is a people that have passed away; they shall have what they earned and you shall have what you earn, and you shall not be called upon to answer for what they did
what do you think was their purpose? for the sake Mecca Story?? To move Citadels of Islam to Mecca Madina?? like the one Dan Gibson Petra story??
you really need to publish.............with best wishes
