Islam: Another peaceful religion or a cult of terror? You decide.

EYE WITNESSES:

Koran 38:3 “They wonder that a warner has come to them from among themselves. And the disbelievers say, ‘This (Prophet Muhammad) is a sorcerer, a charlatan, an wizard telling lies. He has made the alihah (gods) into one Ilah (God). This is a curious and strange thing to be sure!’ Their leaders said, ‘Walk away from him…there is surely some motive behind this—something sought after—a thing he has designed against us…It is surely a forgery.’”
Koran 38:7 “‘We have not heard of this in the religion of later days. This is nothing but an invention! What! Has this been sent to him?’ Nay, but they are in doubt about My reminder (this Koran). Nay, but they have not tasted (My) Torment yet! Let them climb up the ladders to the heavens. They will be one more army vanquished among the many routed hordes.... They rejected my Messengers so My Torment was justified.”
Koran 52:29 “Therefore remind: By the grace of your Lord you are no vulgar soothsayer, nor are you a possessed madman.” [Another translation reads:] “Therefore warn (Muhammad). By the grace of Allah you are neither soothsayer nor madman.”  Koran 52:30 “Or do they say: ‘A Poet! We await for him some evil accidental calamity (hatched) by time!’ Do they say: He is a poet from whom we expect an adverse turn of fortune?”
Koran 52:32 “Is it that their mental faculties of understanding urge them to this, or are they an outrageous folk, transgressing beyond the bounds?”  Koran 52:33 “Or do they say, ‘He fabricated it (the Koran)?’ Nay, they will never believe. Let them then produce a recital like unto it, if they speak the truth!”  Koran 52:38 “Or have they a ladder, by which they can (climb up to heaven and) listen (to its secrets)? Then let (such a) listener of theirs produce a warrant manifesting proof.”
Koran 52:40 “Or is it that you demand a reward or fee from them (for preaching Islam), so that they are burdened with expense and a load of debt? Or that the Ghaib (unseen) is in their hands that they have it written down? Or do they intend a plot (against you), staging a deception? But those who defy and seek to ensnare (the messenger) are themselves being  plotted against and will be tricked!”
Ishaq:155 “Khadija was the first to believe in Allah and His Apostle. By her Allah lightened the burden on His prophet. He never met with contradiction and charges of falsehood but he was comforted by her when he went home. She strengthened him and belittled the opposition.”
Bukhari:V4B54N440 “The Prophet said, ‘Aisha, this is Gabriel. He sends his greetings and salutations to you.’ Aisha replied, ‘Salutations and greetings to him.’ Then addressing the Prophet she said, ‘You see what I don't see.’”
Koran 74:21 “Again, woe to them; may they be cursed for how they plotted. They looked around, frowned, and scowled with displeasure. Then they turned back and were haughty with pride. They said: ‘This is nothing but magical enchantment, derived and narrated from others. This is nothing but the words of a mortal man!’”
Koran 74:49 “What is the matter with them that they turn away from admonition as if they were freighted asses!” 
Koran 74:52 “Each one of them wants to be given scrolls of revelation spread out! No! By no means! They fear not the hereafter. Nay, this is an admonishment. Let them keep it in remembrance! But they will not heed unless the Lord wants them to. He is the fountain of fear. He is the fount of mercy.”
Ishaq:118 “Muhammad is trying to bewitch you.”
Ishaq:119 “‘Abu Tabib, your nephew Muhammad has cursed our gods [at this point he had cursed all of them, including Allah], insulted our religion [more correctly, insulted them by trying to steal their religion], mocked our way of life and accused our forefathers of error. Either you stop him or let us get to him. For you, like us, are in opposition to him. He gave them a conciliatory reply. They returned a second time and said, ‘We have asked you to put a stop to your nephew’s activities but you have not done so. By Allah, we cannot endure having our fathers reviled and our customs mocked.’ Muhammad thought that his uncle had the idea of abandoning and betraying him, and that he was going to lose his support. The Apostle broke into tears.”
Tabari VI:93 “The Quraysh went to Abu Talib and said, ‘Your nephew [Muhammad] has reviled our gods, denounced our religion, derided our traditional values, and told us that our forefathers were misguided [and burning in hell]. Either curb his attacks on us or give us a free hand to deal with him, for you are as opposed to him as we are.’ They said, ‘We asked you to forbid your nephew from attacking us, but you did nothing. By Allah, we can no longer endure this vilification of our forefathers, this derision of our traditional values, and this abuse of our gods.’ This breach and enmity with his tribe weighed heavily on Talib. ‘Abu Talib, you are our elder and our chief, so give us justice against your nephew and order him to desist from reviling our gods, and we will leave him to his god.’”
Tabari VI:95 “Abu Talib sent for Muhammad. ‘Nephew, here are the shaykhs and nobles of your tribe. They have asked for justice against you. You should desist from reviling their gods and they will leave you to your god.’”
Tabari VI:96 “Abu Talib said to Muhammad, ‘Nephew, how is it that your tribe is complaining of you and claiming that you are reviling their gods and saying this, that, and the other?’ The Messenger said, ‘I want them to utter one saying. If they say it, the Arabs will submit to them and the non-Arabs will pay the jizyah [submission tax] to them.”
Ishaq:121 “‘If we say contradictory things about Muhammad, we might lose our credibility [and thus the financial benefits of being heir to Qusayy’s religious scam]. Therefore, let us agree upon one criticism, which we can all claim without dispute. Some say that we should call Muhammad a deranged soothsayer. But is his the incoherent speech of a madman? [Yes] Some say he is possessed. But there is no choking, spasmodic movements, or whispering.’ [Actually, this is how Muhammad said that he endured revelations.] Others said, ‘Then let’s say he is a poet.’ ‘No, he is no poet. We know poetry in its forms.’ [They knew that the Hanif Zayd, among others, was a far better poet than Muhammad and his god.] Then they said: ‘He is a sorcerer.’ ‘No, we have seen sorcerers and their sorcery. With him there is no spitting and no blowing. [There are dozens of Hadiths depicting Muhammad spitting and blowing to exorcize illness and evil spells.]”
Ishaq:121 “‘The nearest thing to the truth is that he is a sorcerer who has brought a message by which he separates a man from his father, brother, wife, children and family.’ They all agreed. Then, according their scheme, the men of Quraysh spread the word that ‘this is nothing but ancient sorcery among the pilgrims in the hajj season. They warned everyone they met that Muhammad was a possessed sorcerer, stirring up divisions in the families.”
Ishaq:130 “When the Quraysh became distressed by the trouble caused by the Apostle they called him a liar, insulted him, and accused him of being a poet, a sorcerer, a diviner [occult soothsayer], and of being possessed. However, the Apostle continued to proclaim what Allah had ordered him to proclaim. He excited their dislike by condemning their religion.”
Ishaq:116 “I heard the Apostle say, ‘I have never invited anyone to accept Islam who hasn’t has shown signs of reluctance, suspicion and hesitation.’”
Koran 69:38 “But nay! I swear that this is truly the word of an honored, illustrious, and noble Messenger; it is not the word of a poet, nor is it the word of a soothsayer.”
Koran 70:36 “What is the matter with the disbelievers that they rush madly to listen to you (Muhammad in order to belie you and mock you and Allah’s Book)? Doesn’t every man long to enter the Garden of Delight?”
Koran 68:1 “I call to witness the Pen and what it writes. You are not a demented madman or possessed.”
Koran 68:4 “You are an exalted character of tremendous morality. Soon you will see, and they will see, which of you is afflicted with madness. Surely the Lord knows best who errs from His way, and who follows the right course. So don’t listen to those who deny, or those who would form compromises with you to get you to relent. Heed not despicable men or contemptible swearers or back-biters, neither obey feeble oath-mongers, or slanderers, going about defaming, hindering good, transgressing beyond bounds, crude, deep in sin, violent and cruel, greedy, and intrusive, ignoble, and besides all that, mean and infamous.”
Koran 68:15 “When you recite Our (Koran) proofs and verses they cry, ‘Tales of the ancients, mere fables of long ago.’ Soon shall We muzzle them and brand the beast on the snout!”
Ishaq:180 “According to my information, the Apostle often sat by a young Christian slave named Jabr. The Meccans said, ‘He is the one who teaches Muhammad most of what he brings.’ Then Allah revealed, Koran 16:103 ‘We know what they (pagans) say: “It is only a mortal man who teaches him (Muhammad). But the tongue of the man they wickedly point to is notably foreign, while this (Koran) is pure Arabic.’”
Koran 16:103 “When we replace a message with another, and Allah knows best what He reveals, they say: ‘You have made it up.’”
Koran 68:51 “And the unbelievers would almost smite you (Muhammad) with their eyes, tripping you when they hear the Message. And they say: ‘Surely he is possessed!’”
Koran 81:22 “And people, your comrade is not one who is possessed, or one who has gone mad.”
Koran 6:66 “The people reject this (Book) and call it a lie though it is the truth.’ ...When you see men who meddle with Our Revelations, turn away, withdrawing from them. Satan makes you forget.”
Koran 66:8 “Believers, turn to Allah with repentance. That Day, He will not permit His Prophet to be humiliated.”
Koran 47:16 “And among them are men who listen to you (Muhammad), but in the end, when they leave you, they say: ‘What is this he is saying now?’”
Koran 9:61 “Among them are men who vex, annoy, and molest the Prophet, saying, ‘He is (all) ear and believes every thing that he hears.’ ...But those who offend the Messenger will have a grievous torment, a painful doom.”
Koran 9:64 “The Hypocrites are afraid that a surah will be sent down about them, showing them what is (really) in their hearts. Say: ‘Go ahead, scoff and mock, will you! Lo, Allah is disclosing what you fear.’ If you question them (Muhammad about this), they declare: ‘We were only talking idly, jesting in play.’ Say: ‘Was it at Allah and His proofs, signs, verses, lessons, and Messenger that you were mocking?’”
Tabari VIII:173/Ishaq:547 “Alas, Sufyan, isn’t it time for you to admit that I am the Messenger of Allah?’ Sufyan replied, ‘As to that I have some doubt.’ ‘Woe to you! Submit and recite the testimony that there is no Ilah (God) but Allah and that Muhammad is the Apostle of Allah before your head is cut off!’”
Koran 5:64  “The Jews say: ‘Allah’s hands are fettered.’” [i.e., Allah is powerless.]
Koran 5:104 “When it is said to them: ‘Come to what Allah has revealed; come to the Messenger.’ They say: ‘Enough for us are the ways we found our fathers following.’ What! Even though their fathers were void of knowledge and guidance?”
Tabari IX:36/Ishaq:596 “‘Prophet, this group of Ansar have a grudge against you for what you did with the booty and how you divided it among you own people.’ ‘Ansar, what is this talk I hear from you? What is the grudge you harbor in your hearts against me? Do you think ill of me? Did I not come to you when you were erring and needy, and then made rich by Allah?’ ‘You came to us discredited, when your message was rejected by the Quraysh, and we believed you. You were forsaken and deserted and we assisted you. You were a fugitive and we took you in, sheltering you. You were poor and in need, and we comforted you.”
Tabari IX:187 “When the Prophet died, Umar stood up threatening the people, saying, ‘Some of the hypocrites allege that the Messenger of Allah is dead. I swear by Allah that he is alive, not dead. By Allah,the Prophet will return and he will go after those who are spreading lies about him. He will cut off the hands and the feet of those who claim that he is dead. He will crucify them.’”
Bukhari:V5B59N733 “While Umar was talking to the people, Abu Bakr said, ‘Sit down, Umar!’ But he refused. So the people came to Abu and left him. Bakr said, ‘To proceed, if you used to worship Muhammad, then Muhammad is dead, but if anyone of you used to worship Allah, then Allah is alive and shall never die.’”
Koran 76:4 “For the rejecters We have prepared chains, iron collars, manacles, and a blazing fire.”
Koran 77:39 “If you have a trick or plot, use it against Me!  If you have any wit, outwit Me. Woe to the rejecters!” Koran 78:28 “They called Our proofs, signs, and verses false with strong denial. We have recorded everything in a book, so taste (that which you earned). We give you nothing but torment.” 
Koran 83:10 “Woe to those who deny, reject Our message, and repudiate. When Our Verses are rehearsed they say, ‘Tales of the ancients! Mere fables of old.’”
Koran 83:29 “The disbelievers used to laugh at believers. When they passed by them, they winked at one another (in mockery). When they returned to their folk, they would jest…but soon the believers will laugh at the unbelievers sitting on high thrones, gazing. The unbelievers will be paid back for what they did.”
Koran 84:22 “The unbelievers reject (Muhammad and the Koran); they deny and lie. Allah has full knowledge of what they secrete. So announce to them tidings of a terrible torment.”
Koran 84:20 “What is the matter with them that they do not believe, and when the Koran is recited to them, they do not fall prostrate in adoration.”
Koran 85:10 “Those who try or tempt the believers will have the penalty of Hell: They will have the doom of the burning fire. Verily, the Seizure of the Lord is severe and painful…. Allah will encompass them from behind! He will punish them. Nay! This is a Glorious Koran.”
Koran 86:15 “They are plotting a scheme against you, but I am also planning a scheme against them.”
Tabari VI:98 “The situation deteriorated, hostility became bitter, and people withdrew from one another, displaying open hatred. The Meccan chiefs conspired to seduce their sons, brothers, and clansmen away from the new religion. It was a trial which severely shook the Muslims who had followed the Prophet. Some were seduced. Muhammad commanded Muslims to emigrate to Abyssinia.”  Tabari VI:98 “The main body went to Abyssinia because of the coercion they were being subjected to in Mecca. His fear was that they would be seduced from their religion. There is a difference of opinion as to the number of those who emigrated in stealth and secret. Some say there were eleven men and four women. …Ibn Ishaq claims there were ten.”
Tabari VI:101 “The Messenger remained in Mecca preaching in secret and openly, protected by his uncle Abu Talib. When the Quraysh saw that they had no means of attacking him physically, they accused him of sorcery, soothsaying, and madness, and of being a poet. They began to keep those away from him whom they feared might listen and follow him.”
Ishaq:130/Tabari VI:101 “‘The nastiest thing I saw the Quraysh do to the Messenger occurred when their nobles assembled in the Hijr [standing place]. They discussed Muhammad, saying, “We have never seen the kind of trouble we have endured from this fellow. He has derided our traditional values, declared our way of life foolish, abused and insulted our forefathers, reviled our religion, caused division among us, divided the community, and cursed our gods. We have endured a great deal from him.’ While they were saying this, the Apostle walked up and kissed the Black Stone. Then he performed the circumambulation of the Ka’aba. As he did they said some injurious things about him. I could see from the Messenger’s face that he had heard them. When he passed a second time they made similar remarks. When he passed them the third time, the Prophet stopped and said, ‘Hear me, O Quraysh. By Him who holds Muhammad’s life in his hand, I will bring you slaughter.’”
Tabari VI:102 “‘They were gripped by what he had said. The word he used struck the people so not one could move. It was as though everyone had a bird perched on his head. Even those of them who had been urging the severest measures against him, now spoke in a conciliatory way, using the politest expressions they could muster. They said, “Depart Abu al-Qasim [Muhammad’s real name]; for by Allah, you were never violent [before Islam].”’”  Tabari VI:102 “The Prophet left, and the next day they gathered in the Hijr, and I [Abdallah] was again present. ‘You were talking about the unpleasantness which you endured and the things Muhammad has done, but when he said something disagreeable you shrank from him.’”  Ishaq:131/ Bukhari:V5B57N27 “‘Then I saw Uqba coming to the Prophet while he was praying. He seized his robe. Abu Bakr came crying and pulled Uqba away. Then they left him. That is the worst that I ever saw the Quraysh do to him.’”
Ishaq:143 “When they heard the Koran they said in mockery, ‘Our hearts are veiled, we do not understand what he is saying. There is a load in our ears.’ Then Allah revealed, ‘And when you recite the Koran we put between you and those who do not believe a hidden veil. They turn in aversion.’ In secret counsels the mockers say, ‘They are following a man bewitched.’”
Tabari VI:106 “The revelation from Allah was coming to the Prophet continuously, commanding and threatening those who showed open hostility to him, and vindicating him against those who opposed him.”
Koran 21:2 “Never comes to them a renewed reminder from their Lord, but they listen to it in jest, playing in sport, their hearts toying with trifles. The wrongdoers conceal their private counsels, conferring in secret, ‘He is just a man like yourselves—a mortal. Will you succumb to his witchcraft with your eyes open?’ Say: ‘My Lord is the One that hears and knows.’ ‘Nay,’ they say, ‘these are merely medleys of muddled dreams! He forged it! He is just a poet! Let him then bring us a miracle like the ones that were sent to (prophets) of old!’”
Koran 21:24 “Say, ‘Bring your proof: this is the Reminder Book for those before me but most do not know and are adverse.’”
Koran 21:36 “When the disbelievers see you (Muhammad), they treat you with ridicule, choosing you out for mockery: ‘Is this he who mentions your gods? Yet they disbelieve at the mention of Ar-Rahman.”
Koran 21:41 “Mocked were messengers before you, but their scoffers were hemmed in by what they mocked. Say: ‘Who can protect you from (the wrath of) Ar-Rahman?’ Yet they turn away from the mention of their Lord. Have they alihah (gods) who can defend them against Us?”
Ishaq:132-3 “Utba, who was a chief, said while sitting in a Quraysh assembly, ‘Why don’t I go to Muhammad and make some proposals to him? If he accepts, we will give him whatever he wants, and he will leave us in peace.’ They thought it was a good idea, because if they tried to negotiate with him they would no longer be blamed for his actions. So Utba went to the Prophet, who was sitting in the mosque by himself, and said, ‘My nephew, you are one of us yet you have come to our people with a matter that is dividing the community. You are ridiculing our customs. You have insulted our gods and our religion. You have even declared that our forefathers were infidels. So listen to me and I will make some suggestions, and perhaps you will be able to accept one of them.’ The Apostle agreed. Utba said, ‘If what you want is money, we will gather for you some of our property so that you may be the richest man in town. If you want honor, we will make you a chief so that no one can decide anything apart from you. If you want sovereignty, we will make you king. And if this demonic spirit which has possession of you is such that you cannot get rid of him, we will find a physician for you, and exhaust our means trying to cure you. For often a demonic spirit gets possession of a man, but he can be rid of it.’ The apostle listened patiently.”
Ishaq:134 “‘Muhammad if you don’t accept our offer then ask your Lord to give us the land and water we lack, for we are shut in by these mountains, we have no river, and none live a harder life than we do. If you speak the truth, resurrect Qusayy for us for he was a true shaikh, so that we may ask him whether what you say is accurate. If you do this we will believe you and know that God has sent you as an apostle as you claim. Well then at least ask your god to send an angel to confirm your depictions of paradise and give you the mansions and gold you obviously crave. If not that, then send us the Day of Doom you threaten us with, for we will not believe you until you perform a miracle. Why doesn’t your god help you? Didn’t he know that we were going to present you with these opportunities to prove yourself? Listen, Muhammad; we know the truth. Information has reached us that you are taught by this fellow in Yemen called al-Rahman. By Allah, we will never believe in Ar-Rahman. Alright then, our conscience is clear.’ When they said this the Prophet got up and left.”
Ishaq:135 “‘Muhammad, your people have made certain propositions…. They asked you for things so that they might know that your position with God is as you say it is so that they might believe and follow you, and yet you did nothing. They even asked you to hasten the punishment you are frightening them with, but you could not do it.’ The Prophet went to Khadija, sad and grieving.”
Ishaq:136 “Ask him about the Mighty Traveler who reached the confines of both East and West. Ask him what the spirit is. And ask him what happened to the men who disappeared in ancient days. If he does not know he is a rogue, a forger, so treat him as you will. So Muhammad said to the emissaries, ‘I will give you the answers tomorrow.’ But the Apostle waited for fifteen days without a revelation from God on the matter, nor did Gabriel come to him, so the people of Mecca began to spread evil reports.”
Tabari VI:106 “The Quraysh promised Muhammad that they would give him so much wealth that he would become the richest man in Mecca [money], they would give him as many wives as he wanted [sex], and they would submit to his commands [power].... The Quraysh said, ‘This is what we will give you, Muhammad, so desist from reviling our gods and do not speak evilly of them.’”  Tabari VI:107 “‘If you will do so, we offer you something which will be to your advantage and to ours.’ ‘What is it,’ Muhammad asked. They said, ‘If you will worship our gods, Al-Lat and Al-Uzza, for a year, we shall worship your god for a year.”
Ishaq:162 “Abu Jahl met the Apostle and said, ‘By Allah, Muhammad, you will either stop cursing our gods or we will curse the god you serve.’ So the Koran verse was revealed, ‘Do not insult those [gods] to whom they pray lest they curse God wrongfully through lack of knowledge.’ [Koran 6:108] I have been told that the Apostle then refrained from cursing their gods, and began to call them to Allah [rather than Ar-Rahman].”
Tabari VI:107/Ishaq:165 “Walid, As, Aswad, and Umayyah said, ‘Muhammad, come and let us worship that which you worship and you worship what we worship. We shall combine in the matter and shall make you a partner in all our undertakings. [The Ka’aba Inc.—the legacy of Qusayy’s religious scam was still the principle game in town.] If what you have brought is better than what we already have, we will be partners with you and take our share, and if what we have is better than what you have, you shall be a partner with us in what we have, and you shall have your share of it.’ ‘Let me see what revelation comes to me from my Lord [not Allah],’ he replied.”
Tabari VI:107 “Satan Cast a False Revelation on the Messenger of Allah’s Tongue: The Messenger was eager for the welfare of his people and wished to effect reconciliation with them in whatever way he could. It is said he wanted to find a way to do this, and what happened was as follows: Tabari VI:108/Ishaq:165 “The Messenger saw his tribe turn on him. He was pained to see them shunning the message he had brought. So he [abandoned both his message and his god because he] longed for something that would reconcile his tribe to him. With his anxiety over this it would have delighted him if the obstacle which had made his task so difficult could be removed [so he could accept their offer of power, sex, and money]. So Muhammad debated with himself and fervently desired such an outcome. Then Allah revealed: ‘By the Star when it sets, your comrade does not err, nor is he deceived; nor does he speak out of his own desire. [In truth, he did all three and was about to prove his guilt.] And when he came to the words: “Have you thought about Al-Lat, Al-Uzza and Manat,” Satan, when he was meditating upon it and desiring to bring reconciliation, cast on his tongue, because of his inner longings and what he desired, the words: “These are exalted high-flying cranes (goddesses). Verily their intercession is accepted with approval.”’”  abari VI:108/Ishaq:166 “When the Quraysh heard this, they rejoiced and were delighted at the way in which he spoke of their gods, and they listened to him. While the Muslims, trusting their Prophet in respect to the messages which he brought, did not suspect him of a vain desire or slip. When he came to the prostration, having completed the surah, he prostrated himself and the Muslims did likewise, obeying his command and following his example.”
Tabari VI:108/Ishaq:166 “Those polytheists of the Quraysh and others who were in the mosque likewise prostrated themselves because of the reference to their gods which they had heard, so that there was no one in the mosque, believer or unbeliever, who did not prostrate himself. Then they all dispersed from the mosque.”
Tabari VI:109/Ishaq:167 “The news of this prostration reached those of the Messenger’s Companions who were in Abyssinia. The people said, ‘The Quraysh have accepted Islam.’ Some rose up to return. Then angel Gabriel came to the Messenger and said, ‘Muhammad, what have you done?’”
Ishaq:166 “‘You have recited to the people that which I did not bring to you from Allah, and you have said that which He did not say to you.’ The Messenger was grieved and feared Allah greatly. So Allah sent a revelation to him, consoling him and making light of the affair [of worldly bargains and Satanic indulgences]. He informed him that there had never been a prophet or messenger before who desired as he desired and wished as he wished but that Satan had cast words into his recitation, as he had interjected them on Muhammad’s tongue and into his desires.”
Ishaq:166 “Then Allah annulled what Satan had cast, and established his verses by telling him that he was like other prophets and messengers.’ Every Messenger or Prophet before you recited the message Satan cast into his recitation. Allah abrogates what Satan casts. Then Allah established his verses.’”
Koran 22:52 “Never did We send a messenger or a prophet before you, but, when he framed a desire, Satan threw some vanity into his desire: but Allah will cancel anything that Satan throws in.”
Koran 53:1 “I call to witness the Star when it dips. Your Companion (Muhammad) is neither confused, deceived, nor misled [except by Satan, in the guise of Allah]. Nor does he speak out of (his own) desire [unless he is tempted with money, sex, and power]. It is a revelation revealed, He was taught (this Koran) by the Supreme Intellect (Gabriel [actually Lucifer]), One free from any defect in body or mind: for he rose and became stable (in stately form), clear to view.”
Koran 53:10 “So He did reveal to His slave whatever He revealed. The (Prophet’s) heart did not falsify what he perceived he saw. Will you then dispute with him about what he saw? For indeed he saw him [him who] at a second descent. [A “descent” is a journey down.] Near the Lote Tree beyond which none may pass. Near it is the Garden of Abode (the Seventh Haven). [Muhammad’s heaven is down, not up.]”
Koran 53:25 “They follow nothing but conjecture and what they themselves desire! Whereas guidance has come to them from their Lord!”
Koran 53:56 “Do you then wonder at this recital? And will you laugh at it and not weep, wasting your time in amusements? So fall you down in prostration to Allah, and serve [me]!”
Tabari VI:110 “When Muhammad brought a revelation from Allah canceling what Satan had cast on the tongue of His Prophet, the Quraysh said, ‘Muhammad has repented of [reneged on] what he said concerning the position of our gods with Allah. He has altered [the bargain] and brought something else.’ Those two phrases which Satan had cast on Muhammad’s tongue of were in the mouth of every polytheist. They became even more ill-disposed and more violent in their persecution of those of them who had accepted Islam and followed the Messenger.”
Tabari VI:115 “The deaths of Abu Talib and Khadija were a great affliction to the Messenger. After the death of Abu Talib, the Quraysh went to greater lengths in molesting him than they had ever done during his lifetime. One of them even poured dust upon his head. The Prophet said, ‘The Quraysh never did anything unpleasant to me until Abu Talib died.’”
Ishaq:192 “When Abu Talib died, the Messenger went to Ta’if to seek support and protection against his own people. He spoke to them about the requests which he had come to make, (that is,) that they should come to his aid in defense of Islam and take his side against those of his own tribe who opposed him.”  Tabari VI:116/Ishaq:192 “One of them said, ‘If Allah has sent you, I will tear off the covering of the Ka’aba.’ Another said, ‘Couldn’t God find somebody better than you to send?’ The third added, ‘I shall not speak to you, for if you are Allah’s messenger as you say, you’re too important for me to reply to, and if you’re lying, you’re too despicable to address.’”
Tabari VI:116/Ishaq:192 “Muhammad left them, despairing of getting any good out of the Thaqif. I have been told that he said to them, ‘If that is your decision, keep it secret and do not tell anyone about it,’ for he did not want his tribe to hear about this matter and be emboldened against him. However, they did not comply with his request, and incited against him their ignorant rabble who reviled him, shouted at him and hurled stones.”
Tabari VI:118 “The Messenger came back to Mecca and found that its people were more determined to oppose him and to abandon his religion, except for a few weak people who believed in him.”
Koran 40:4 “None can argue or dispute about the Signs of Allah or His Revelations but the Unbelievers. Let not their strutting about or their turn of fortune deceive you (for their ultimate end will be the Fire of Hell)!”  Koran 40:5 “Before them, folk denied, the People of Noah, and the Confederates (of Evil) after them; and every nation has plotted against their prophet, to seize and destroy him. They disputed by means of falsehood to condemn the truth. So I seized and destroyed them! How (terrible) was My punishment! In this way the sentence [behavior] of your Lord against the disbelieving infidels was justified. They will be the inmates of the Hell Fire!”
Bukhari:V4B56N830-1 “The Meccan people requested Allah’s Apostle to show them a miracle, and so during the lifetime of the Prophet the moon was split into two parts. On that the Prophet said, ‘Bear witness [to my god].’”
Ishaq:184 “The Apostle went on no journey except while he was in my house. He slept in my home that night after he prayed the final night prayer. A little before dawn he woke us, saying, ‘Umm, I went to Jerusalem.’ He got up to go out and I grabbed hold of his robe and laid bare his belly. I pleaded, ‘O Muhammad, don’t tell the people about this for they will know you are lying and will mock you.’”
Ishaq:183 “Upon hearing this many became renegades who had prayed and joined Islam. Many Muslims gave up their faith. Some went to Abu Bakr and said, ‘What do you think of your friend now? He alleges that he went to Jerusalem last night and prayed there and came back to Mecca.’ Bakr said that they were lying about the Apostle. But they told him that he was in the mosque at this very moment telling the Quraysh about it. Bakr said, ‘If he says so then it must be true. I believe him. And that is more extraordinary than his story at which you boggle.’ Then Allah sent down a Koran surah concerning those who left Islam for this reason: ‘We made the vision which we showed you only, a test for men. We put them in fear, but it only adds to their heinous error.’” [Koran 13:33]
Koran 13:7 “The unbelievers say, ‘Why was no sign or miracle sent down to him by his Lord?’”
Koran 13:27 “The unbelievers say, ‘How is it that no sign miracle was sent down to him by his Lord?’ Say, ‘God leads whosoever He wills astray.’”
Koran 13:32 “Many an Apostle have they mocked before you; but I seized them. How awful was My punishment then! …The unbelievers plot, but for them is torment in this life and a far more severe torture in Hell.”
Koran 13:38 “It was not for any Apostle to come up with a miracle or sign unless it was granted by Our permission. For every age there is a Book revealed. Ar-Rahman abrogates, blots out, or confirms (whatever He wants).” 
Koran 13:41 “Do they not see Us advancing from all sides into the land (of the disbelievers), reducing its borders (by giving it to believers in war victories)? (When) Allah dooms there is none who can postpone His doom. Sure, they devised their plots, but We are the best schemers.” 
Koran 13:43 “Yet the disbelievers say: ‘You are not a Messenger.’ Tell them: ‘This Scripture is sufficient witness between me and you.’”
Koran 17:59 “Nothing stops Us from sending signs and proofs except that earlier people rejected them as lies. We sent to Thamud the she-camel as a clear sign, but they treated her cruelly.”
Koran 17:90 “They say, ‘We shall not believe you (Muhammad), until you cause a spring to gush forth from the earth [like Moses]. Or until you have a garden, and cause rivers to flow in their midst [like you claim Allah does]. Or you cause the sky to fall upon us in chunks, as you say will happen [like Yahweh did to Sodom and Gomorrah].  Or you bring angels before us face to face [like Abraham]. Or you have a house adorned with gold [like David or Solomon], or you ascend up into the skies [like Jesus]. No, we shall not have faith in you unless you send down to us a book that we can read [like the Bible].’”
Ishaq:194 “The Apostle offered himself to the Arab tribes at the fairs whenever an opportunity arose. He used to ask them to believe in him and protect him.” Ishaq:195 “The Apostle stopped by the Arab encampments and told them that he was the Prophet of Allah ordering them to worship Him, to believe in His Messenger, and protect him until Allah made plain His purpose. He went to the tents of the Kinda and offered himself to them, but they declined. He went to the Abdallah clan with the same message, but they would not heed. The Apostle went to the Hanifa, where he met with the worst reception of all. He tried the Amir, but one of them said to him, ‘I suppose you want us to protect you from the Arabs with our lives and then if you prevail, someone else will reap the benefits. Thank you, No!’”
Ishaq:197 “The Apostle heard about Abdul. He asked them if they would like to get something more profitable than their present errand. Their leader took a handful of dirt and threw it in Muhammad’s face.”
Tabari VI:125 “After the Messenger had spoken to the group from Yathrib they said, ‘Take note. This is the very prophet whom the Jews are menacing us with. Don’t let them find him before we accept him.’ Because of this, they responded to his call and became Muslims.”
Ishaq:212 “The Quraysh persecuted his followers, seducing some from their religion and exiling others. They became insolent towards Muhammad’s God. They accused His prophet of lying. So He gave permission to His Apostle to fight those who had wronged him. He said in his Koran: ‘Fight them so that there will be no more seduction [i.e., no more exposing Islam’s faults], until no Muslim is seduced from Islam. Fight them until the only religion is Islam and Allah alone is worshiped.’” [22:40 & 2:198]
Tabari VI:140 “The Quraysh were now anxious about Muhammad going there as they knew he had decided to join them in order to make war on them.”
Ishaq:221 “They deliberated as to what to do about Muhammad as they had come to fear him. ‘Keep him in fetters, lock him up, and wait for the same kind of death to overtake him which overtook other poets of his sort.’ ‘If you imprison him, his followers will attack and snatch him away. Then their numbers will grow so large, they will destroy the authority of the Quraysh.’ ‘Let us expel him from among us and banish him from the land. The harm which he has been doing will disappear, and we shall be rid of him. We shall be able to put our affairs back in order and restore our social harmony.’”
Tabari VI:143/Ishaq:222 “Among those who had gathered against him was Abu Jahl. He said, while waiting at his door, ‘Muhammad alleges that if we follow him, we shall be kings over the Arabs and Persians. Then after we die fighting for him, we shall be brought back to life and live in gardens like those in Jordan. He also claims that if we do not submit to him, we shall be slaughtered. And after his followers kill us, we shall be brought back to life and thrown into the fires of hell in which we shall burn.’ Allah’s Messenger came out and took a handful of dust and said, ‘Yes, I do say that; and you are one of them.’ Allah took away their sight so that they could not see him. [Just as we have been blinded today.] And Muhammad began to sprinkle the dust [of ignorance and complacency] on their heads while reciting the following verses: ‘Ya Sin. I call to witness the Koran. You are one sent on a straight path…The sentence is justified against most of them, for they do not believe. We will certainly put iron collars on their necks which will come up to their chins so that they will not be able to raise their heads. And We have set a barrier before them, and cover them so that they will not be able to see.’” [Koran 36:1]
Koran 20:133 “They say: ‘Why does he not bring us a sign or miracle from his Lord?’ Has not a Clear Sign come to them in the former scripture Books of revelation?”
Koran 46:6 “And when men are gathered they will be hostile enemies and reject worship!” “When Our Clear Signs are rehearsed to them, the unbelievers say: ‘This is evident sorcery! It is a fabrication.’”  Koran  46:8 “Or do they say, ‘He has forged it?’ Say: ‘If I fabricated it, still you have no power to support me against Allah. He knows best of that whereof you talk (so glibly)! Sufficient is He a witness between me and you!’”  Koran 46:9 “Say: ‘I am no bringer of new-fangled doctrine among the messengers,’”
Koran 46:10 “Bethink you: If (this) be from Allah, and you reject it, and a witness from among the Children of Israel testifies to its similarity (of Allah’s Koran with earlier Torah), and believed while you are arrogant and spurn it. Lo! Allah guides not wrong-doing folk.’”
Koran 46:11 “The disbelievers say to the believers: ‘Had this (Islam) been a good thing, (such men as) they would not have gone to it before us!’ And seeing that they do not guide themselves thereby, they will say, ‘This is an ancient falsehood, the same old lie!’”
Koran 46:22 “They said: ‘If you have come in order to turn us away from our gods then bring upon us the (calamity) you threaten us with, if you are telling the truth.’ He [Muhammad] said: ‘The knowledge (of when it will come) is only with Allah. I proclaim to you the mission on which I have been sent: But I see that you are a people in ignorance!’”
Ishaq:191 “Abu Jahl with sundry other notables went to Abu Talib and said, ‘We acknowledge your rank with us, but now that you are at the point of death we are deeply concerned. You know the trouble that exists between us and your nephew, so call him and let us make an agreement that he will leave us alone and we will leave him alone.’ The Messenger arrived and Abu said, ‘Nephew, these noble men have come to give you something and gain something in return.’ Muhammad said, ‘Can you give me words by which you can rule the Arabs and subject the Persians to you?’ ‘How about ten words,’ Abu Jahl said [knowing the drill]. Muhammad replied, ‘You must say, “There is no ilah but Allah” and “Muhammad is his Messenger.”’ They clapped their hands and said, ‘Do you want to make all the Gods into one Ilah, Muhammad? That would be an extraordinary thing.’”
Ishaq:284 “I am amazed at the causes of anger and folly and at those who stir up strife by lying controversy. They abandon our fathers’ ways. They come with lies to twist our minds. But their lies cannot confound the wise. If you give up your raids we will take you back for you are our cousins, our kin. But they chose to believe Muhammad and became obstinately contentious. All their deeds became evil.”
Tabari VII:20/Ishaq:288 “The Quraysh said, ‘Muhammad and his Companions have violated the sacred month, shed blood, seized property, and taken men captive.’ The polytheists spread lying slander concerning him, saying, ‘Muhammad claims that he is following obedience to Allah, yet he is the first to violate the holy month and to kill our companion in Rajab.’”
Tabari VII:21 “The Muslims who were still in Mecca refuted this.”
Ishaq:288 “The Jews, seeing in this an omen unfavorable to Muhammad, said, ‘Muslims killing Meccans means war is kindled.’ There was much talk of this. However, Allah turned it to their disadvantage. When the Muslims repeated what the Jews had said, Allah revealed a Koran to His Messenger: ‘They question you with regard to warfare in the sacred month. Say, “War therein is serious, but keeping people from Islam, from the sacred mosque, and driving them out is more serious with Allah.’ [2:217] The Muslims now knew that seduction [speaking out against Islam] was worse than killing.”
Ishaq:239 “About this time Jewish rabbis showed hostility to the Apostle in envy, hatred, and malice, because Allah had chosen His Apostle from the Arabs. The Jews considered the Prophet a liar and strove against Islam.” “The Aus and Khazraj joined the Jews by obstinately clinging to their heathen religion. They were hypocrites. When Islam appeared and their people flocked to it, they were compelled to pretend to accept it to save their lives.”
Ishaq:239 “Jewish rabbis used to annoy the Apostle with questions, introducing confusion.”
Ishaq:244 “Hatib was a sturdy man steeped in paganism. Yazid, his son, was one of the best Muslims when he was disabled by wounds. At the point of death, Muslims said, ‘Rejoice, son of Hatib, in the thought of Paradise!’ Then his father’s hypocrisy showed it self. He said, ‘Humph! It is a Garden of Rue. You have sent my son to his death by your deception.’ Concerning him, Allah said: ‘Argue not on behalf of those who deceive themselves.’” [4:107]
Ishaq:256 “The Jews used to ask Muhammad questions which annoyed and confused him.”
Ishaq:257 “Your situation seems obscure to us, Muhammad.”
Ishaq:257 “‘O Jews, fear Allah and submit, for you used to hope for the Messiah’s help against the Arabs when we were pagans. You told us that he would be sent and then told us about him.’ A Jew responded, ‘Muhammad has not shown us anything we recognize as prophetic. He is not the one we spoke to you about.’ So Allah revealed, ‘We confirmed what they had, and We sent one they recognized, but they rejected him so We are cursing them.’ The Jews replied, ‘No Covenant was ever made with us about Muhammad.’”  “‘Muhammad, you have not brought anything we recognize. And God has not sent down any sign or miracle suggesting that we should believe you.’ So Allah said, ‘We have sent down to you plain signs and only evildoers disbelieve them.’”
Ishaq:257 “The Jews told Allah’s Messenger, ‘Bring us a book. Bring us something down from heaven that we might read it.’”
Ishaq:258 “The Jews used to turn men away from Islam. So Allah said, ‘Many Scripture folk wish to make you unbelievers after you have believed. They are envious. But be indulgent until Allah gives you his orders [to rob them and murder them.]”
Koran 2:12 “They are mischief-mongers, but they realize not. When it is said to them: ‘Believe as the others believe:’ They say: ‘Shall we believe as the fools?’ Nay, surely they are the fools, but they know not. When they meet the faithful, they say: ‘We believe;’ but when they are alone with the devils, they say: ‘We are really with you: We (were) only mocking.’”  Koran 2:15 “Allah mocks them, paying them back, increasing their wrong-doing so they wander blindly.”
Koran 2:23 “If you are in doubt of what We have revealed to Our Votary, then bring a surah like this, and call any witnesses apart from Allah. But you cannot, as indeed you cannot guard yourselves against the Hell Fire whose fuel is men and rocks, which has been prepared for the infidels.”
Koran 2:43 “Perform prayer; pay the zakat tax; bow down and prostrate yourself with Ar-Raki’un (the obedient bowers). You read, recite and study the Scripture. Why don’t you understand? [Why don’t you capitulate?] Nay, seek [Islamic prostration] prayer: It is indeed hard, heavy, and exacting, except for those who obey in submission.”
Tabari VII:63 “The Messenger uttered these words: ‘O people of the pit, you were evil fellow tribesmen to your Prophet! You disbelieved me when other people believed me. You drove me out when other people gave me shelter. You fought me when other people came to my aid.’”
Koran 8:30 “Remember how the unbelievers plotted against you (Muhammad), to get you out (of your home). They plotted, and Allah too had arranged a plot; but Allah is the best schemer.”
Koran 8:31 “When Our Verses are rehearsed to them, they say: ‘We have heard this (before) [i.e., it’s plagiarized]. If we wished, we could say (words) like these. These are nothing but stories of the ancients.’”
Koran 8:32 “Remember how they said: ‘O Allah, if this (Koran) is indeed the Truth (revealed) from You, rain down on us a shower of stones from the sky, or send us a painful doom!’ But Allah was not going to send them a penalty while you (Muhammad) were among them. But what plea have they that Allah should not punish them; what makes them so special?”
Tabari VII:85/Ishaq:363 “The Jews of the Qaynuqa replied, ‘Muhammad, do you think that we are like your people? Do not be deluded by the fact that you met a people with no knowledge and you made good use of your opportunity.’”
Koran 61:5 “Moses said: ‘O my people, why do you annoy and insult me, when you well know I am Allah’s Messenger?’ Then when they turned away, Allah caused them to be deceived.”
Koran 64:5  “Has not the story reached you of those who disbelieved before? They tasted the ill effects of their unbelief. They tasted a painful torment because there came to them messengers with Clear Proofs, but they said: ‘Shall (mere) human beings direct us?’ So they rejected and turned away. But Allah can do without (them): Allah is Rich, the Owner of Praise. Those who reject Faith and treat Our Signs as falsehoods, they will be Companions of the Fire, to dwell therein forever: an evil resort.”
Ishaq:383 “One of the young men’s fathers confronted Muhammad and said, ‘You have robbed my son of his life by your deception and brought great sorrow to me.’”
Koran 3:19 “Lo! religion with Allah (is) Surrender. Nor did the People of the Book differ except out of envy after knowledge had come to them. But if any deny the proofs, signs and lessons of Allah, Allah is swift in reckoning.” Koran 3:20 “If they argue with you, (Muhammad), say: ‘I have surrendered to Allah (in Islam) and those who follow me.’ And say to those who were given the Scripture (Jews and Christians) and to the illiterates (Arabs): ‘Do you also submit? If they surrender, then they are rightly guided.”
Koran 3:69 “It is the wish of the followers of the People of the Book to lead you astray. But they make none to go astray except themselves. You People of the Book! Why reject you the signs, proofs, and verses of Allah, of which you are witnesses? You People of the Book! Why do you clothe Truth with falsehood, and conceal the Truth?”
Koran 3:77 “As for those who sell for a small price the covenant and faith they owe to Allah and their own plighted word for a small price, they shall have no portion in the Hereafter. Nor will Allah speak to them or look at them on the Day of Judgment, nor will He cleanse them: They shall have a grievous torment, a painful doom. There is among them a section who distort the Book with their tongues. (As they read) you would think it is from the Book, but it is not from the Book; and they say, ‘That is from God,’ but it is not from Allah: It is they who tell a lie against Allah, and (well) they know it!”
Ishaq:395 “Muslims, if you listen to the unbelievers you will retreat from the enemy and become losers. Ask Allah for victory and do not retreat, withdrawing from His religion. ‘We will terrorize those who disbelieve. In that way I will help you against them.’”
Koran 3:184 “Then if they reject you (Muhammad), so were rejected messengers before you, who came with miracles and with the prophetic Psalms and with the Scripture giving light.”
Koran 33:11 “In that situation the Believers were sorely tried and shaken as by a tremendous shaking. And behold! The Hypocrites and those in whose hearts is a disease said: ‘Allah and His Messenger promised us nothing but delusion!’”
Ishaq:459 “Allah sent against them bitter cold winter nights and a wind that overturned their cooking pots, blowing away their tents. This combined with the disagreement and how Allah had disrupted their unity sowed distrust. [So... ] Muhammad began to wonder what they were doing.” Tabari VIII:26 “The Prophet asked, ‘Who will go and spy on the enemy?’ The Messenger stipulated that should he come back, Allah would cause him to enter paradise. But no one stood up. The Prophet prayed and then uttered the same words, but no one volunteered. Again he asked, ‘Whoever goes may be my companion in paradise.’ Yet none stood, so intense was the fear, hunger, and cold.”
Ishaq:475  “Those who call Muhammad a liar disbelieve and go astray. They attacked our religion and would not submit.”
Tabari VIII:52/Ishaq:491 “Jahjah and Juhani fought. Juhani shouted, ‘People of the Ansar [Medina Muslims].’ Jahjah shouted, ‘People of the Emigrants [Meccan Muslims].’ Abdallah bin Ubayy [the leader of the Ansar] became enraged and said, ‘Why are they doing this? Are they trying to outrank us and outnumber us in our own land? The proverb “Feed a dog and it will devour you” fits these Quraysh vagabonds [Muhammad’s Muslims]. When we go back to Medina, those who are stronger will drive out the weaker. Then he turned to his tribe and said, ‘This is what you have done to yourselves! You have allowed them [the Meccan Muslims] to settle in your land [Yathrib/Medina] and divide your wealth. Had you kept from them what you had, they would have moved to another place.’”  Tabari VIII:53 “Abdallah said, ‘Those who are stronger will drive out the weaker from Medina.’”
Ishaq:499 “Many Bedouins were slow in coming to him.
Koran 24:47 “They say, ‘We believe in Allah and in the Messenger, and we obey,’ but even after that, some of them turn away: they are not (really) Believers. When they are summoned to Allah and His Messenger, in order that He may judge between them, behold some of them decline (to come) and are averse.”  Koran 24:50 “Is there is a disease in their hearts, do they have doubts? Do they in fear that Allah and His Messenger will deal unjustly, acting wrongfully toward them?”
Koran 24:11 “Those who brought forward the lie are a body among you: but think it not an evil to you; on the contrary, it is good for you. Every man among them (will get the punishment) their sin earned. For him who took the lead in the slander, his will be an awful doom. Why did not the believers, when you heard of the affair, put the best construction on it in their minds and say, ‘This is an obvious lie?’ Why did they not bring four witnesses to prove it? Since they produce not witnesses, they are liars in the sight of Allah. Were it not for His mercy a grievous penalty would have seized you in that you rushed glibly into this affair. You said out of your mouths things of which you had no knowledge; and you thought it to be a light matter, while it was most serious in the sight of Allah, a grave offense. And why did you not, when you heard it, say? ‘It is not right of us to speak of this: this is a most serious slander, an awful calumny!’ Those who love scandal to be broadcast among the Believers will have a painful punishment in this life and the hereafter.”
Tabari VIII:89 “When the Messenger had finished his pact, he said to his Companions, ‘Arise, sacrifice, and shave.’ Not a man stood even after he had said it three times. When no one stood up, went into Umm’s tent and told her what he had encountered from the Muslims. She said, ‘Do you approve of this?”
Koran 4:81 “They have obedience on their lips; but when they leave you, a  section of them plots things that are different from what you commanded them. So keep clear of them.”
Koran 4:140 “You have been commanded in the Book that whenever you hear Verses of Allah denied, derided, ridiculed, or mocked [as is the only reasoned response], do not sit with them and engage them in this talk or you will be no different from them. Indeed, Allah will collect the Hypocrites and Infidels together and put them all in Hell.”
Koran 4:142 “The Hypocrites try to deceive Allah, but it is He Who deceives them. When they stand up performing the prayer, they stand sluggishly, to be seen, but they are mindful of Allah but little. (They are) distracted in mind even in the midst of it, swaying between this and that, one group or the another.”
Koran 4:153 “The people of the Book ask you to cause (an actual) book to descend to them from heaven. Indeed they asked Moses for an even greater (miracle), for they said: ‘Show us Allah in public,’ but they were dazed for their presumption.” [top]

Tabari VIII:181 “People of the Quraysh, Allah has taken from you the haughtiness of the Time of Ignorance and its veneration of ancestors…. For now I have humbled you, made you Muslims, submissive unto me…. People of the Quraysh and people of Mecca, what do you think I intend to do with you?”
Ishaq:553 “The people assembled in Mecca to swear allegiance to the Messenger in submission. They gathered to do homage to the Apostle in Islam. Umar remained below the Prophet, lower than the place where he sat, imposing conditions on the people as they paid homage [reverence] to Muhammad, promising to submit and obey. Umar administered the oath, receiving from the Meccans their pledge of allegiance to Muhammad. They promised to heed and obey Allah and His Messenger.”
Tabari VIII:183 “When the Messenger was finished with the men’s swearing of allegiance, the women swore allegiance.” “He said, ‘You shall not disobey me in carrying out my orders.’ The Messenger told Umar, ‘Receive their oath of allegiance and their homage.... Now go, for I have accepted your allegiance and praise.”
Ishaq:555 “It is not lawful for anyone to shed blood in Mecca. It was not lawful to anyone before me and it will not be lawful after me. If anyone should say, ‘The Apostle killed men in Mecca,’ say, ‘Allah permitted his Apostle to do so but He does not permit you.’”
Ishaq:557 “Allah gave you a seal imprinted. [The “Seal of Prophethood” was a hairy mole.] Allah’s proof is great. [Now there’s a delusional thought.] I testify that your religion is true and that you are great among men. Allah testifies that Ahmad [it means “praised”] is the chosen. You are a noble one, the cynosure [someone who attracts attention or admiration] of the righteous, a prince.”
Tabari IX:8/Ishaq:569 “Our people were routed and fled, no one turning to look back. Allah’s Apostle withdrew and cried, ‘Where are you going? Come to me. I am Allah’s Apostle! I am Muhammad, son of Abdallah!’ It was of no avail. The camels just bumped into one another as the Muslims ran away.”
Tabari IX:8 “When the polytheists overwhelmed the Muslims, the Prophet got off his mount and started reciting verses in the rajaz meter: ‘I am the Prophet, it is no lie.”

Ishaq:182 “While I was in the Hijr, Gabriel came and stirred me with his foot. He took me to the door of the mosque and there was a white animal, half mule, half donkey, with wings on its sides yet it was propelled by its feet. He mounted me on it. When I mounted, he shied. Gabriel placed his hand on its mane and said [to the jackass], ‘You should be ashamed to behave this way. By God, you have never had a more honorable rider than Muhammad.’ The animal was so embarrassed, it broke into a cold sweat.”
Muslim:C75B1N309 “The Messenger said: ‘I was brought on al-Buraq, an animal white and long. I mounted it and came to the Temple in Jerusalem. I tethered it to the ring used by the prophets and entered the mosque, praying two rak’ahs in it. Then I came out [of the nonexistent  building] and Gabriel brought me a vessel of wine and one of milk. I chose the milk, and he said: “You have chosen the natural thing,” and took me to heaven.’”
Ishaq:182 “When we arrived at the Temple in Jerusalem, we found Abraham, Moses, and Jesus, along with a company of prophets. I acted as their imam in prayer.”
Ishaq:184 “After the completion of my business in Jerusalem, a ladder was brought to me finer than any I have ever seen. An angel was in charge of it and under his command were 12,000 angels each of them having 12,000 angels under his command.”
Bukhari:V4B54N429/Muslim:C75B1N309 “‘Then we ascended to the second heaven. The guard at the gate asked, “Who is it?” Gabriel said, “Gabriel.” The gatekeeper asked, “Who is with you?” He said, “Muhammad” “Has he been sent for?” He said, “Yes.” The guard said, “He is welcomed. What a wonderful visit his is!” and opened the gate. Then I met Jesus and Yahya (John) who said, “You are welcomed, O brother and Pious Prophet.... Then we ascended to the sixth heaven and again the same questions and answers were exchanged. There I met and greeted Moses. When I proceeded on, he started weeping and on being asked why, he said, “Followers of this youth who was sent after me will enter Paradise in greater number than my followers.’”
Bukhari:V8B77N610 “We granted the vision of the ascension to the heavens, Miraj, which We showed you as an actual eye witness but as a trial for people.’ [17:60] Allah’s Apostle actually saw with his own eyes the vision of all the things which were shown to him on the Night Journey to Jerusalem. It was not a dream.”
Ishaq:203 “‘Choose what you want for yourself and your Lord.’ The Messenger recited [lurid tales of virgins from] the Koran and made us desirous of Islam. Then he said, ‘I will enter a contract of allegiance with you, provided that you protect me as you would your women and children.’”
Tabari VI:133 “We pledge our allegiance to you and we shall defend you as we would our womenfolk. Administer the oath of allegiance to us, Messenger of Allah, for we are men of war possessing arms and coats of mail.”

Koran 2:104 “You of Faith, say not (to the Prophet) words of ambiguous import like ‘Listen to us,’ but words of respect; and obey (him): To those who don’t submit there is a grievous punishment.”
Ishaq:235 “When the Apostle was settled in Medina and his comrades were gathered to him, the affairs of the workers were arranged, and Islam became firmly established. Prayer was instituted, the zakat tax was prescribed, legal punishments were fixed, as were all things permitted and forbidden.”
Tabari VII:54 “Muhammad turned toward his new Qiblah and said. ‘Allah, if this band perishes today, you will be worshipped no more.’ Abu Bakr picked up his cloak and put it on him, grasping him from behind. ‘Prophet whom I value more than my father and mother, this constant calling on your Lord is annoying.’ Then Allah revealed, ‘When you sought the help of your Lord he answered, “I will help you with a thousand angels, rank on rank.”’” [8:9]
Ishaq:306 “Allah’s Apostle ordered the dead to be thrown into a pit. All were thrown in except Umayyah. He had swollen up in his coat of mail and filled it. They went to move him, but he fell apart, so they left him where he was and flung some rocks over him. As the dead were being thrown in, Muhammad stood over them and said, ‘O people of the pit, have you found what your Lord promised you to be true? For I have found what my Lord promised me to be true.’ The Muslims said to him. ‘Allah’s Messenger, are you speaking to dead people who have been putrefied?’ He replied, ‘They know what I promised them is the truth.’ You hear what I say no better than they, but they cannot answer me.”
Bukhari:V5B58N193 “The Prophet cursed those that had teased him. He said, ‘O Allah! Destroy the chiefs of Quraysh, Abu Jahl, Utba, Shaba, Umaiya, and Ubai.’ I saw these people killed on the day of Badr battle and thrown in the pit except Ubai whose body parts were mutilated.”
Bukhari:V5B59N314-7 “At Badr, the Prophet ordered the corpses of twenty-four Quraysh leaders to be thrown into a pit. It was a habit of the Prophet that whenever he conquered some people, he used to stay at the battlefield for three nights [to gloat]. So, on the third day he ordered that his she-camel be saddled and he set out. His Companions followed, saying: ‘The Prophet is proceeding for some great purpose.’ When he halted at the edge of the pit, he addressed the corpses of the Quraysh infidels by their names, ‘O so-and-so, son of so-and-so! Why didn’t you obey Allah’s Apostle?’ Umar said, ‘Apostle! You are speaking to the dead!’ Muhammad said, ‘Allah brought them to life (again) to let them hear me, to reprimand them, to slight them, and so that I might take my revenge over them.’ Then he quoted the Holy Verse out of the Koran: ‘You cannot make the dead listen or the deaf hear your call…until they believe Our Signs and come into submission.” [30:52]
Ishaq:231 “Whenever you differ about a matter it must be referred to Allah and Muhammad.”
Koran 61:6 “And Jesus, the son of Mary, said: ‘Children of Israel, I am the Messenger of Allah (sent) to you, confirming that (which was revealed) before me in the Torah, and giving Glad Tidings of a Messenger to come after me, whose name shall be Ahmad, the Praised One.’ But when he came to them with Clear Signs, they said, ‘this is sorcery!’”
Koran 62:2 “It is He Who has sent to the unlettered ones a Messenger from among them, to rehearse and recite to them His Verses, to purify them, and to instruct them in the Book and Sunnah (of Muhammad); they had been in manifest error.”
Tabari VII:126 “The Prophet went up the mountain. He had become stout and heavy with age. When he tried to climb up, he could not manage on his own. Talba Ubaydullah squatted beneath him and lifted him up until he settled comfortably on a rock.”  Ishaq:383 “That day I heard the Prophet saying, ‘Talha earned paradise when he did what he did for me.’”
Ishaq:391 “O people, Allah’s Apostle is among you. Allah has honored and exalted you by him. So help him and strengthen him. Listen to his commands and obey them.’”
Ishaq:398 “Allah sent you an Apostle of your own, reciting to you His verses concerning what you did, and teaching you good and evil that you might know what is good and do it, and know what is bad and refrain from it, and so that you might gain much from obeying Him and avoid His wrath proceeding from disobedience and thereby escape His vengeance.”
Bukhari:V4B52N220 “Allah’s Apostle said, ‘I have been sent with the shortest expressions bearing the widest meanings, and I have been made victorious with terror. While I was sleeping [besieging], the keys to the treasures of the world were brought to me and put in my hand.’”
Ishaq:440 “Helped by the Holy Spirit we smited Muhammad’s foes. He is a true Messenger from the Compassionate, an Apostle reciting Allah’s Book. He became honored in rank and station. So the Apostle sent a message to them with a sharp cutting sword.”
Koran 33:53 “O ye who believe! Enter not the Prophet’s apartments until leave is given you for a meal. (And then) not (so early as) to wait for its preparation. But when you are invited, enter; and, when your meal is ended, then disperse. Linger not for conversation. Lo! that would cause annoyance to the Prophet. Such (behavior) bothers him. He is ashamed to dismiss you, but Allah is not ashamed (to tell you) the truth. And when ye ask (his ladies) for anything, ask them from behind a screen: that makes for greater purity for your hearts and for theirs. Nor is it right for you that you should annoy Allah’s Messenger, or that you should marry his widows after him at any time. Truly such a thing is in Allah’s sight an enormous offense.”
Tabari VIII:40 “Aisha, the Mother of the Faithful, was asked, ‘How did the Messenger of God behave?’ She replied, ‘His eye did not weep for anyone.’”
Koran 4:12 “Those who obey Allah and His Messenger will be admitted to Gardens to abide therein and that will be the supreme achievement. But those who disobey Allah and His Messenger and transgress His limits will be admitted to a Fire, to abide therein: And they shall have a humiliating punishment.”
Koran  4:80 “He who obeys the Messenger obeys Allah.” [top]

INSPIRATION:

Bukhari:V1B1N2 “‘Allah’s Messenger! How is the Divine Inspiration revealed to you?’ He replied, ‘Sometimes it is like the ringing of a bell. This form of Inspiration is the hardest of all and then this state passes off after I have grasped what is inspired. Sometimes the angel comes in the form of a man and talks to me and I grasp whatever he says.’”
Bukhari:V7B67N427  “The Prophet  said, ‘If I take an oath and later find something else better than that, then I do what is better and expiate my oath.’”
Bukhari:V6B60N8 “Umar said, ‘Our best Koran reciter is Ubai. And in spite of this, we leave out some of his statements because Allah’s Apostle himself said, “Whatever verse or revelation We abrogate or cause to be forgotten We bring a better one.”
Bukhari:V4B54N457 “Whoever claims the Prophet Muhammad saw his Lord is committing a great fault for he only saw Gabriel in his genuine shape in which he was covering the horizon.”
Bukhari:V6B60N378 “‘O Mother of the faithful, did Muhammad see his Lord?’ Aisha said, ‘What you have said makes my hair stand on end! Know that if somebody tells you the following things, he is a liar. Whoever tells you that Muhammad saw his Lord, is a liar. [i.e., the Koran isn’t from God] Whoever tells you that the Prophet knows what is going to happen tomorrow, is a liar.[i.e., Muhammad wasn’t a prophet] Aisha added. ‘The Prophet saw Gabriel in his true form twice.’” [i.e., the Koran is 112 surahs too long]
Bukhari:V4B54N455 “So (Allah) conveyed the Inspiration to His slave (Gabriel) and then he (Gabriel) conveyed (it to Muhammad).”
Ishaq:558 “Gabriel, Allah’s messenger is with us and the Holy Spirit has no equal.”
Bukhari:V4B54N440 “The Prophet said, ‘Aisha, this is Gabriel. He sends his greetings and salutations to you.’ Aisha replied, ‘Salutations and greetings to him.’ Then addressing the Prophet she said, ‘You see what I don’t see.’”
Bukhari:V4B54N455 “The Prophet informed us that he had seen Gabriel and he had 600 wings.”
Koran 74:43 “Each one of them wants to be given scrolls of revelation spread out! No! By no means!”
Koran 2:106 “When we cancel a Verse or throw it into oblivion, We replace it with a better one.” [Or:] “Whatever Revelation We abrogate or cause to be forgotten, We substitute something better.”
Koran 16:103 “When we replace a message with another, and Allah knows best what He reveals, they say: ‘You have made it up.’”
Koran 4:82 “Do they not ponder over the Koran? Had it been the word of any other but Allah they would surely have found a good deal of variation in it, much discrepancy and incongruity...those who check and scrutinize will know it.”
Ishaq:326 “Abdullah told me that when this verse came down it was a shock to the Muslims who took it hard. They were afraid, as the odds were too great. So Allah relieved them and cancelled the verse with another: ‘Now has Allah relieved you and He knows that there is a weakness among you, so if there are 100 [rather than 20] they shall vanquish 200.’”
Bukhari:V6B60N478 “The commencement of divine inspiration to Allah’s Messenger was in the form of dreams…. The Prophet loved the seclusion of a cave in Hira. The angel came to him and asked him to read. The Prophet replied, ‘I do not know how to read.’ The Prophet added, ‘Then the angel caught me forcefully and pressed me so hard that I could not bear it any more. He released me and asked me to read. I replied, “I do not know how to read.” Thereupon he caught me again and pressed me till I could not bear it any more. He asked me to read but I replied, “I do not know how to read or what shall I read?” Thereupon he caught me for the third time and pressed me, “Read in the name of your Lord who has created man from a clot. Read!” Then the Apostle returned from that experience; the muscles between his neck and shoulders were trembling, and his heart beating severely. He went to Khadija and cried, ‘Cover me! Cover me!’ She did until his fear subsided. He said, ‘What’s wrong with me? I am afraid that something bad has happened to me.’”
Tabari VI:67 “The Prophet said, ‘I had been standing, but fell to my knees; and crawled away, my shoulders trembling. I went to Khadija and said, “Wrap me up!” When the terror had left me, he came to me and said, “Muhammad, you are the Messenger of Allah.’” Muhammad said, ‘I had been thinking of hurling myself down from a mountain crag, but he appeared to me as I was thinking about this and said, “I am Gabriel and you are the Messenger.” Then he said, “Recite!” I said, “What shall I recite?” He took me and pressed me three times. I feared for my life.’”
Ishaq:106 “When I thought I was nearly dead I said, ‘What shall I read;’ only to deliver myself from him, lest he should do the same thing to me again. He said, ‘Read in the name of your Lord who created man of blood coagulated. Read! Your Lord taught by the pen.’ So I read it, and he departed from me. I awoke from my sleep. These words were written on my heart. None of Allah’s creatures was more hateful to me than an ecstatic poet or a man possessed.’ I thought, ‘Woe is me, I’m a possessed poet.’”
Ishaq:105 “Aisha said that when Allah desired to honor Muhammad, the first sign of prophethood was a vision in brightness of day shown to him in his sleep. He liked nothing better than to be alone. When he left Mecca and there was no house in sight, every stone and tree that passed by said, ‘Peace be unto you, Allah’s Apostle.’ Muhammad would turn around and see naught but trees and stones. He stayed seeing and hearing things as long as it pleased Allah.”
Bukhari:V9B87N113 “The Prophet said, ‘A good dream is from Allah, and a bad dream is from Satan.’”
Tabari VI:76 “The inspiration ceased to come to the Messenger for a while, and he was deeply grieved. He began to go to the tops of mountain crags, in order to fling himself from them; but every time he reached the summit of a mountain, Gabriel appeared to him and said to him, ‘You are Allah’s Prophet.’ Thereupon his anxiety would subside and he would come back to himself. [Muhammad explains:] I was walking one day when I saw the angel who used to come to me at Hira. I was terror-stricken by him.”
Koran 73:1 “O you who have been wrapped in your garments! Who said, ‘Cover me, cover me. I’m afraid of the angel.’ Keep watch all night except a little. And recite the Koran as it ought to be recited, in slow, measured rhythmic tones. Surely We will soon entrust you with Our weighty Word. Surely the night is the most devout way when the soul is most receptive and the words most telling.”
Ishaq:115 “Now Muhammad did not want his secret to be divulged before he applied himself to the publication of his message.”
Ishaq:155 “The revelations stopped for some time so that the Apostle was distressed and grieved. Then Gabriel brought him the ‘Morning,’ in which he swore that he had not forsaken him and did not hate him.”
Koran 93:1 “I swear by the early hours of the day, and the night when it covers with darkness. Your Lord hath not forsaken thee, nor doth He despisith thee.”
Ishaq:117 “Three years elapsed from the time that Muhammad concealed his state until Allah commanded him to publish his religion according to information that has reached me. ‘Proclaim what you have been ordered and turn away from the polytheists.’ [15:94] ‘Warn your family, your nearest relations.’ [26:214] When these words came down to the Apostle he said, ‘Allah has ordered me to warn my family and the task is beyond my strength. When I make my message known to them I will meet with great unpleasantness so I have kept silent. But Gabriel has told me that if I do not do as ordered my Lord will punish me.’”
Bukhari:V6B61N550 “The Prophet said, ‘It is a bad thing that some of you say, “I have forgotten such-and-such verse of the Koran.” For indeed, I have been caused to forget it. So you must keep on reciting the Koran because it escapes from the hearts of men faster than a runaway camel.’” [Contradicting himself, Allah tells his illiterate messenger...] Koran 87:4 “We shall make you read so that you will not forget.”
Tabari VI:75 “‘Messenger, how did you first know with absolute certainty that you were a prophet?’ He replied, ‘Two angels came to me while I was somewhere in Mecca…. One angel said, “Open his breast and take out his heart.” He opened my chest and heart, removing the pollution of Satan and a clot of blood, and threw them away. Then one said, “Wash his breast as you would a receptacle.” He summoned the Sakinah, which looked like the face of a white cat, and it was placed in my heart. Then one said, “Sew up his breast.” So they sewed up my chest and placed the seal between my shoulders.’”
Koran 94:1 “Have We not opened up your chest and removed your burden which left you hopeless?”
Koran 75:6 “Move not your tongue concerning the Koran to make haste. It is for Us to collect it, put it together, and promulgate it. When We have read it, follow its recital as promulgated. It is for Us to explain it.”
Koran 47.024 “Do they not understand the Koran? Nay, on the hearts there are locks preventing them from understanding.”
Koran 5:101 “Believers! Do not ask questions about things which if made plain and declared to you, may vex you, causing you trouble.”

Koran 5:109 “One day Allah will gather the messengers together, and ask: ‘What was the response you received (to your teaching)?’ They will say: ‘We have no knowledge.’”
Bukhari:V2B24N555 “I heard the Prophet say, ‘Allah has hated for you for asking too many questions.’”
Koran 3:7 “He it is Who has sent down to you the Book. In it are entirely clear verses, decisive, or fundamental (with established meaning); they are the foundation of the Book: others are unclear or allegorical. As for those who are perverse, they follow the part that is not entirely clear, trying (to cause) dissension by seeking to explain it and searching for hidden meanings. But no one knows its explanation or meaning except Allah. And those who are firmly grounded in knowledge say: ‘We believe in the Book; the whole of it (clear and unclear) is from our Lord.’ None will grasp the Message except men of understanding.”
Koran 69:38 “But nay! I swear that this is truly the word of an honored, illustrious, and noble Messenger; it is not the word of a poet, nor is it the word of a soothsayer.”
Koran 69:43 “This is a Message sent down from the Lord of men and jinn [demons]. And if the Messenger were to attribute any false words to Us, We would seize him and cut his aorta. None of you would be able to stop Us. So truly this is a Message for those who fear. Yet We know that there are those who deny and belie (this Koran). But truly this (Koran) revelation is a cause of sorrow and anguish; the nemesis of unbelievers.”
Ishaq:180 “According to my information, the Apostle often sat by a young Christian slave named Jabr. The Meccans said, ‘He is the one who teaches Muhammad most of what he brings.’ Then Allah revealed, Koran 16:103 ‘We know what they (pagans) say: “It is only a mortal man who teaches him (Muhammad). But the tongue of the man they wickedly point to is notably foreign, while this (Koran) is pure Arabic.’”
Bukhari:V4B56N814 “There was a Christian who embraced Islam and he used to write the revelations for the Prophet. Later on he returned to Christianity again he used to say: ‘Muhammad knows nothing but what I have written for him.’”

Koran 72:1 “Say (Muhammad): ‘It has been revealed to me that a group of Jinn [demons or devils] listened (to the Koran). They said, “We have heard a really wonderful recital (of this Koran)! It guides to the Right Path. We have come to believe it. We shall not associate anything with our Lord.”
Bukhari:V5B58N199 “‘Who informed you Prophet about the Jinn [Demons] when they heard the Koran?’ He said, ‘A tree informed me about them.’”

Muslim:C14B39N6757 “Allah’s Messenger said: ‘There is none amongst you with whom is not an attaché from amongst the jinn, a devil.’ The Companions said: ‘Allah’s Messenger, is there a devil with you too?’ Thereupon he said: ‘Yes, but Allah helps me against him so I am safe from his hand and he does not command me but for good.’”

Bukhari:V5B59N716-V4B52N288 “The ailment of Allah’s Apostle became worse. He said, ‘Fetch me something so I may write something to keep you from going astray.’ The people differed in this matter, and it was not right to differ before a prophet. Some said, ‘What is wrong with him? Do you think he’s delirious? Let’s ask him.’ So they went to the Prophet and asked. He said, ‘Leave me, for my present state is better than what you question me about.’ Then he ordered them to do three things. He said, ‘Turn the pagans out of the Arabian Peninsula; give gifts to the foreign delegations as you have seen me dealing with them.’”
Tabari IX:175 “Bring me a tablet, or a plank of the shoulder blade and an inkpot, so that I can write for you a document, after which you will not go astray.’ Some said, ‘The Messenger of Allah is out of his mind.’”

Muslim: C24B20N4609 “The Messenger said: ‘Do not take the Koran on a journey with you, for I am afraid lost it would fall into the hands of the enemy.’ Ayyub, one of the narrators in the chain of transmitters, said: ‘The enemy may seize it and may quarrel with you over it.’”
Koran 56:75 “Furthermore I call to witness the falling Stars, and that is indeed a mighty adjuration, a tremendous oath, if only you knew, that this is indeed a noble recitation (of the Koran). In a Book kept hidden that is protected which none shall touch but those who are clean, the purified ones. A Revelation from the Lord of men and jinn [devils]. Is it such a talk that you would hold in light esteem, a statement to scorn? Do you then hold this announcement in contempt?”

One day the companions of the Prophet were assembled together [all five of them] and remarked, ‘The Quraysh have never heard this Koran recited aloud to them. Who will make them listen to it?’” Ishaq:141 “The next day Ibn Mas’ud went to the Ka’aba in the late morning when the Quraysh were gathered in groups. He turned toward them as he recited: Koran 55:1 “Ar-Rahman bestowed the Koran. He created man. He has taught man eloquent speech (and intelligence). The sun and moon are made punctual, following courses, they revolve to a computation.”

Koran 89:12 “All made mischief so your Lord poured on them the disaster of His torment, a scourge of diverse chastisements. Most surely your Lord is in laying in wait, watching.”

Koran 40:21 “Do they not travel through the earth and see the end of those before them? They were superior to them in strength, and in the traces (they have left) in the land, yet Allah seized and destroyed them, and they had no one to defend them against Allah. That was because their Messengers kept bringing them Clear (Signs and Proofs) (of Allah’s Sovereignty), but they rejected them: So Allah seized and destroyed them: for He is Strong, Severe in Punishment and Retribution.”
Tabari VII:3 “I recommend to you the fear of Allah, for the best thing which a Muslim can enjoin upon a Muslim is that he should…fear Allah. [Koran 87:10 “He who fears will obey.”] Beware of what Allah has warned you concerning himself. The fear of Allah, for whoever acts according to it in fear and dread of his Lord is a trusty aid to what you desire. Allah says, ‘The sentence that comes from me cannot be changed, and I am in no wise a tyrant unto the slaves.’ The fear of Allah will ward off Allah’s hatred, retribution, and wrath.”

It was not you (Muhammad) who threw (a handful of dust), it was not your act, but it was Allah who threw (the sand into the eyes of the enemy at Badr) in order that He might test the [Muslim] Believers by doing them a gracious favor of His Own: for Allah is He Who hears and knows.”
