CHRISTIANS:
Koran 5:17 “Verily they are disbelievers and
infidels who say, ‘The Messiah, son of Mary, is God.’”
Koran 5:51 “Believers, take not Jews and Christians
for your friends. They are but friends and protectors to each other.”
Koran 5:72 “They are surely infidels who blaspheme
and say: ‘God is Christ, the Messiah, the son of Mary.’ But the
Messiah only said: ‘O Children of Israel! Worship Allah, my Lord and your
Lord.’”
Koran 74:31 “We have appointed nineteen angels to
be the wardens of the Hell Fire. We made a stumbling-block for those who
disbelieve and We have fixed their number as a trial for unbelievers in order
that the People of the Book may arrive with certainty, and that no doubts may
be left for the People of the Book, those in whose hearts is a disease.”
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 72:15 “But the Qasitun (disbelievers) are the
firewood of hell.”
Koran 88:1 “Has the narration reached you of the
overwhelming (calamity)? Some faces (Jews and Christians) that Day, will
be humiliated, downcast, scorched by the burning fire, while they are made to
drink from a boiling hot spring.”
Koran 9:29 “Fight those who do not believe in Allah
or the Last Day, who do not forbid that which has been forbidden by Allah and
His Messenger, or acknowledge the Religion of Truth (Islam), (even if they
are) People of the Book (Christians and Jews), until they pay the Jizyah
tribute tax in submission, feeling themselves subdued and brought low.”
[Another translation says:] “pay the tax in acknowledgment of our
superiority and their state of subjection.”
Ishaq:552 “The Quraysh had put pictures in the
Ka’aba including two of Jesus and one of Mary. Muhammad ordered that the
pictures should be erased.”
Koran 5:14 “From those, too, who call themselves
Christians, We made a covenant, but they forgot and abandoned a good part of
the message that was sent them: so we estranged them, stirred up enmity and
hatred among them to the Day of Doom. Soon will Allah show them the handiwork
they have done.”
Koran 5:15 “O People of the Book! There has come to
you Our Apostle, revealing to you much that you used to hide in your
Scripture, suppressing and passing over much. There has come to you from Allah
a (new) light (Muhammad) and a clear Book [the Koran].”
Koran 5:17 “...Say (Muhammad): ‘Who then has the
least power against Allah, if His will were to destroy Christ, the Messiah,
the son of Mary, his mother, and everyone else on earth?”
Koran 5:18 “The Jews and the Christians say: ‘We
are sons of Allah, and his beloved.’ Say: ‘Why then does He punish you for
your sins? Nay, you are but men. He forgives whom He wishes and punishes whom
He pleases.’”
Koran 5:35 “Believers, fear Allah and seek the way
to approach Him, striving hard, fighting Jihad with all your might in His
Cause that you may be successful. As for the disbelievers [previously defined
as Christians], if they had everything on earth, two times over, to give as
ransom for the penalty of the Day of Doom, it would never be accepted from
them. Theirs will be a painful torment. They will desire to get out of the
fire, but they shall not be released from it. They shall have an everlasting
torture.”
Koran 5:47 “Let the people of the Gospel judge by
what Allah has revealed therein. If any fail to judge by what Allah has
revealed, they are (no better than) those who rebel.”
Koran 5:48 “To you [Christians] We sent the
Scripture in truth, confirming the scripture that came before it, and guarding
it in safety: so judge between them by what Allah has revealed.”
Koran 5:49 “And this (He commands): Judge between
them by what Allah has revealed and follow not their [Christian] desires, but
beware of them lest they beguile you, seducing you away from any of that which
Allah hath sent down to you. And if they turn you away [from being Muslims],
be assured that for their crime it is Allah’s purpose to smite them. Truly
most men are rebellious.”
Koran 5:57 “Believers, take not for friends those
who take your religion for a mockery or sport, a joke, whether among those who
received the Scripture before you or among those who reject Faith; but fear
Allah.”
Koran 5:68 “Say: ‘People of the Scripture Book!
You have no ground to stand upon unless you observe the Taurat [Torah], the
Injeel [Gospel], and all the Revelation that has come to you from your
Lord.’ It is certain to increase their rebellion and blasphemy. But grieve
you not over unbelieving people.”
Koran 5:72 “...Lo! Whoever joins other gods with
Allah or says He has a partner, Allah has forbidden Paradise, and the Hell
Fire will be his abode. There will for the wrong-doers be no one to help.”
Koran 5:73 “They are surely disbelievers who
blaspheme and say: ‘God is one of three in the Trinity for there is no Ilah
(God) except One, Allah. If they desist not from saying this (blasphemy),
verily a grievous penalty will befall them—the disbelievers will suffer a
painful doom.”
Koran 5:75 “The Messiah, Christ, the son of Mary,
was no more than a messenger; many were the messengers that passed away before
him. His mother was a woman of truth. They had to eat their food. See how
Allah does make His signs clear to them; yet see in what ways they are
deluded!”
Koran 4:157 “‘We [Jews] killed the Messiah,
Jesus,’ but they killed him not, nor crucified him. It appeared so to them
(as the resemblance of Jesus was put over another man and they killed that
man). Nay, Allah raised him up unto Himself. Those who differ with this
version are full of doubts. They have no knowledge and follow nothing but
conjecture. For surely they killed him not.”
Koran 4:171 “O People of the Book! Do not
exaggerate in your religion; nor speak lies of Allah. The Messiah, Christ
Jesus, the son of Mary was (no more than) a messenger of Allah, and His Word,
which He bestowed on Mary, and a Spirit proceeding from Him. So believe in
Allah and His messengers. Say not ‘Trinity.’ Cease and Desist: (it is)
better for you: for Allah is one Ilah (God). (Far it is removed from him of)
having a son. To Him belong all things in the heavens and on earth. And enough
is Allah as a Disposer of affairs. The Messiah is proud to be a slave of
Allah, as are the angels, those nearest. Those who disdain His worship and are
arrogant. He will gather them all together unto Himself to (answer)…. He
will punish with a painful doom; Nor will they find, besides Allah, any to
protect or save them.”
Koran 4:159 “And there is none of the People of the
Book but will believe in him (Jesus as only a messenger of Allah and a human
being) before his (Jesus’) death. He will be a witness against them.”
Koran 5:77 “Say (Muhammad): ‘People of the Book,
do not overstep the bounds in your religion, or follow the people who erred
and led many astray. Cursed are the unbelievers among the Children of Israel
by David and Jesus.... They do vile things, allying themselves with the
infidels so that Allah’s indignation is upon them and in torment they will
suffer for all eternity.” [Another translation reads:] “Curses were
pronounced on the unbelievers, the Children of Israel who rejected Islam, by
the tongues of David and of Jesus because they disobeyed and rebelled.”
Koran 5:80 “You see many of them allying themselves
with the unbelieving infidels. Vile indeed are their souls. Allah’s wrath is
on them, and in torment will they abide.” Koran 5:81
“If only they had believed in Allah, in the Prophet, and in what had been
revealed to him.”
Koran 5:82 “You will find the Jews and
disbelievers [defined as Christians in 5:73] the most vehement in hatred for
the Muslims.”
Koran 5:110 “And God will say: ‘O Jesus! Recount
My favor to you and to your mother. Behold! I strengthened you with the Holy
Spirit so that you spoke to the people in the cradle and in the prime of life.
Behold! I taught you the law and the judgment, the Torah and the Gospel. And
behold, you made out of clay, as it were, the figure of a bird and you
breathed into it and it became a bird by My permission. And you healed those
born blind by My permission and the lepers by My permission. And behold! You
raised forth the dead by My permission. And behold! I did restrain the Jews
from harming you when you came with clear proofs. And the unbelievers among
the Jews said: ‘This is nothing but magic.’”
Koran 5:111 “Behold! I inspired the [Christian]
disciples to have faith in Me and My Messenger. They said, ‘We are
believers, and bear witness that we prostrate ourselves to Allah as
Muslims.’” Koran 5:112 “Behold! The disciples,
said: ‘O Jesus, can your Lord send down to us a table well laid out from
heaven?’ Said Jesus: ‘Fear Allah, if you have faith.’ When the disciples
said: ‘O Jesus, son of Mary, is your Lord able to send down for us a table
spread with food from heaven?’ He said: “Observe your duty to Allah, if
you are true believers.’” Koran 5:113 “They
said: ‘We only wish to eat thereof to satisfy our hearts, and to know that
you have told us the truth. We want to witnesses a miracle.’ Said Jesus, the
son of Mary: ‘O Allah our Lord! Send us from heaven a table well laid out,
that there may be for us a feast, a Sign from you.” Koran 5:115
“Allah said: ‘I am going to send it down unto you, but if any of you after
that disbelieves, resisting Faith [Islam], I will punish him with a torment
such as I have not inflicted on any one of my creatures, man or jinn. I will
punish them with a torment such as I have not inflicted on any one of my
creatures.”
Koran 5:116 “And behold! Allah will say: ‘O
Jesus, the son of Mary! Did you say unto men, worship me and my mother as two
gods besides Allah?’ He will say: ‘Glory to You! Never could I utter what
I had no right.” Koran 5:117 “I only said what
You (Allah) commanded me to say: Worship Allah, my lord and your Lord. I was a
witness over them while I dwelt amongst them but you took me up. (This is a
great admonition and warning to the Christians of the whole world.)”
Tabari IX:15 “One of the Ansari who was plundering the
slain came upon a Thaqif boy. He discovered that he was an uncircumcised
Christian. He uncovered others and then yelled out at the top of his voice,
‘Allah knows that the Thaqif are uncircumcised.”
Tabari IX:86 “Don’t seduce the Jews or Christians
for incumbent on them is to pay the jizyah protection tax.”
Bukhari:V2B23N414 “The Prophet in his fatal illness
said, “Allah cursed Jews and Christians because they took their
Prophets’ graves as places for praying.’”
Bukhari:V5B59N727 “When Allah’s Apostle became
seriously sick, he started covering his face with a woolen sheet. When he felt
short of breath, he removed it, and said, ‘That is so! Allah’s curse be on
Jews and Christians.’”
Bukhari:V4B55N607 “Allah’s Apostle said, ‘On the
night of my Ascension to Heaven, I saw Jesus with a red face as if he
had just come out of a bathroom. And I resemble Abraham more than any of his
offspring.’”
Koran 2:111 “They say: ‘None shall enter Paradise
unless he be a Jew or a Christian.’ Those are their (vain) desires. Say:
‘Produce your proof if you are truthful.’ Nay, whoever submits His face to
Allah and surrenders, he will get his reward; on such shall be no fear, nor
shall they grieve. The Jews say: ‘The Christians follow nothing; and the
Christians say: ‘the Jews follow nothing (true);’ Yet they (profess to)
recite the (same) Scripture Book. But Allah will judge between them in their
quarrel.”
Koran 9:30 “The Jews call Uzair the son of Allah,
and the Christians say that the Messiah is the son of Allah. That is their
saying from their mouths; they but imitate what the unbelievers of old used to
say. Allah’s (Himself) fights against them, cursing them, damning and
destroying them. How perverse are they!”
Koran 9:31 “They (Jews and Christians) consider
their rabbis and monks to be gods besides Allah. They also took their Lord
Messiah to be a god but they were commanded (in the Taurat and Injeel) to
worship only One Ilah (God). There is no ilah (god) but He. Too holy is He for
the partners they associate (with Him).”
Koran 9:34 “Believers, there are many (Christian)
monks and (Jewish) rabbis who in falsehood devour the wealth of mankind and
hinder (men) from the way of Allah. And there are those who bury gold and
silver and spend it not in Allah’s Cause. (Muhammad) announce unto them
tidings of a painful torture. On the Day [of Doom] heat will be produced out
of that (wealth) in the Fire of Hell. It will be branded on their foreheads,
their flanks, and their backs. ‘This is the (treasure) which you hoarded for
yourselves: now taste it!’”
Koran 2:116 “They say: ‘Allah hath begotten a
son: glory be to Him.’ Nay, to Him belongs all that is in heavens and on
earth: All are subservient and obedient to Him.”
Koran 2:145 “Even if you were to bring to the
people of the Scripture Book all the Signs, they would not follow Your Qiblah;
nor are you going to follow their Qiblah; nor indeed will they follow each
other’s Qiblah.”
Koran 2:146 “The People of the Book, unto whom We
gave the Scripture, know/recognize this revelation/him as they know/recognize
their own sons; But lo! a party of them knowingly conceals truth.”
Koran 2:71 “The semblance of the infidels is one
who shouts to one who cannot hear. They are deaf, dumb, and blind. They make
no sense.”
Koran 2:174 “Those who conceal Allah’s
revelations in the [Bible] Scripture Book, and thus make a miserable profit
thereby [selling it to Muhammad], swallow Fire into themselves; Allah will not
address them. Grievous will be their doom.” Koran 2:175
“They are the ones who bartered away guidance for error and Torment in place
of Forgiveness. Ah, what boldness (they show) for the Fire! (Their doom is)
because Allah sent down the Book in truth but those who seek causes of dispute
in the Book are in a schism of great opposition.”
Tabari VIII:98 “Between the truce of Hudaybiyah and
his death, the Messenger dispersed his Companions with letters. ‘I have been
sent as a mercy and for all. Therefore, convey the message from me, and Allah
shall have mercy on you. Do not become disobedient to me as the Disciples
became disobedient to Jesus. He called them to the like of what I called you
to. Those whom he sent close by were pleased and accepted; those whom he sent
far off were refused. Jesus complained of their behavior to Allah, and when
they awoke the next morning, each could speak the language of the people to
whom he had been sent. Then Jesus said, ‘This is an affair that Allah has
determined for you; so go forth!’”
Koran 8:50 “If you could have seen the infidels
when the angels drew away their souls, striking their faces and smiting their
backs. The angels said: ‘Taste the penalty of the blazing Fire.’”
Koran 8:52 “They brought this on themselves.
Their case is like that of Pharaoh and of those before them. They denied and
rejected the revelations of Allah, and Allah destroyed them, punishing them
for their crimes: for Allah is strict, severe in punishment.”
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 61:14 “O Muslims! Be helpers of Allah: As
Jesus the son of Mary said to the Disciples, ‘Who will be my helpers (in the
Cause) of Allah?’ Said the disciples, ‘We are Allah’s helpers!’ Then a
portion of the Children of Israel believed, and a portion disbelieved: But We
gave power to those who believed against their enemies, and they became the
victorious.”
Koran 3:37 “Mariam was given into the care of
Zacharyah. Whenever he came to see her in her chamber he found her provided
with food, and he asked, ‘Where has this come from Mary?’ She said,
‘From Allah who gives in abundance to whomsoever He will. Zacharyah prayed,
‘Bestow on me offspring that is good [i.e., not a girl]. As he stood in the
chamber the angels said, ‘Allah sends you tidings of Yahya (John) who will
confirm a thing from Allah (the creation of Isa (Jesus), the Word of Allah)
and be a noble prophet, one who is upright and does good [a Muslim].”
Koran 3:42Koran 3:44 “Behold! the angels said: ‘Mariam!
Allah has chosen you and purified you above the women of all nations and
creation (including jinn). Mary! submit with obedience to your Lord (Allah).
Prostrate yourself, and bow down with those [Muslims] who bow down.” “This
is part of the tidings of the things unseen, which you have no knowledge and
We reveal unto you (Messenger!) by inspiration. You were not with them when
they cast lots with arrows, as to which of them should be charged with the
care of Mariam. Nor were you with them when they disputed.”
Koran 3:45 “Behold, the angels said: ‘O Mariam!
Allah gives you glad tidings of a Word from Him: his name will be the Messiah,
Isa (Jesus), the son of Mariam, held in honor in this world and the Hereafter
and of those nearest to Allah.”
Koran 4.171 “O people of the Book (Christians), do
not be fanatical in your faith, and say nothing but the truth about Allah. The
Messiah who is Isa (Jesus), son of Mariam, was only a messenger of Allah,
nothing more. He bestowed His Word on Mariam and His Spirit. So believe in
Allah and say not Trinity for Allah is one Ilah (God)…far be it from His
Glory to beget a son.”
Koran 3:46 “And he shall speak to the people when
in the cradle and when of old age, and shall be one of the good ones.”
Bukhari:V4B55N645 “The Prophet said, ‘None spoke in
cradle but three: The first was Jesus, the second was an Israeli called Juraij.
While he was offering his prayers, his mother called him. He said, “Shall I
answer her or keep on praying?” He went on praying and did not answer her.
His mother said, “O Allah! Do not let him die till he sees the faces of
prostitutes.”
Koran 3:47 “Mary said: ‘O my Lord! How shall I
have a son when no man has touched me?’ He said: ‘Even so: Allah creates
what He wills: When He has decreed a plan, He but says to it, ‘Be,’ and it
is!” Koran 3:48 “And Allah will teach him the
Scripture Book and Wisdom, the Torah and the Gospel, and appoint him a
messenger to the Children of Israel, with this message: ‘Lo! I come unto you
with a Sign from your Lord. Lo! I fashion for you out of clay the likeness of
a bird, and I breathe into it and it is a bird, by Allah’s leave. I heal him
who was born blind, and the leper, and I raise the dead, by Allah’s
leave.” [As if reading a different Arabic text, the Ali translation says:]
“He will teach him the Law and the Judgment, the Torah and the Gospel, and
he will be Apostle to the children of Israel, (saying) ‘I have come to you
with a prodigy from your Lord that I will fashion the state of destiny out of
the mire for you and breathe (a new spirit) into it, and (you) will rise by
the will of Allah.”
Bukhari:V4B55N657 “Allah’s Messenger said, ‘Isa
(Jesus), the son of Mariam, will shortly descend amongst you Muslims and will
judge mankind by the law of the Koran. He will break the cross and kill the
swine [Jews] and there will be no Jizyah tax taken from non-Muslims. Money
will be so abundant no one will accept it. So you may recite this Holy Verse:
“Isa (Jesus) was just a human being before his death. On the Day of
Resurrection he (Jesus) will be a witness against the Christians.”’”
Bukhari:V4B55N658 “Allah’s Apostle said ‘How will
you be when the son of Mary (i.e. Jesus) descends amongst you and he will
judge people by the Law of the Koran and not by the law of Gospel.’”
Bukhari:V4B55N651-2 “I heard Allah’s Apostle saying,
‘I am the nearest of all the people to Jesus. There has been no prophet
between me and Jesus. All the prophets are paternal brothers; their mothers
are different, but their religion is one.’”
Koran 3:50 “(I [Isa/Jesus] have come) to attest the
Torah which was before me. And to make lawful to you part of what was
forbidden; I have come to you with a Sign from your Lord. So fear Allah, and
obey me. Lo! Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. That is a
straight path.”
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 3:52 “But when Jesus became conscious of
their disbelief, he cried: ‘Who will be my helpers in the Allah’s Cause?
The disciples said: We will be Allah’s helpers. We believe in Allah, and do
you bear witness that we are Muslims.” Koran 3:54
“And they (the disciples from the previous verse) schemed, and Allah schemed
and plotted (against them): and Allah is the best of schemers.” [Another
translation reads:] Koran 3:54 “‘Lord, we believe
in Your revelations [the Torah and Gospels] and follow this Apostle [Jesus].
Enroll us among the witnesses.’ But the Christians contrived a plot and
Allah did the same; but Allah’s plot was the best.” [A third translation
says that “they” refers to “disbelievers,” not the disciples and they
plotted to kill Jesus.] “And they (disbelievers) plotted (to kill Isa
[Jesus]) and Allah plotted too.”
Koran 3:55 “Allah said, ‘Jesus, I will take you
and raise you to Myself and rid you of the infidels (who have forged the lie
that you are My son).… Those who are infidels will surely receive severe
torment both in this world and the next; and none will they have as a savior
for them.” [Interesting, considering...] Koran 5:72
“They are surely infidels who say; ‘God is the Christ, the Messiah, the
son of Mary.” [Another translation reads:] Koran 3:55
“Behold! Allah said: ‘O Jesus! I will take you and raise you to Myself and
clear you (of the falsehoods) of those who blaspheme; I will make those who
follow you superior to those who reject faith. Then shall you all return unto
me, and I will judge between you on the matters wherein you dispute.”
[Another:] “(Remember) when Allah said: ‘Jesus! Lo! I am gathering you and
causing you to ascend unto Me. I am cleansing you of those who disbelieve.”
[A fourth reads:] “When Allah said: ‘Jesus, I am going to terminate the
period of your stay (on earth) and cause you to ascend unto Me and purify you
of those who disbelieve.... I will decide between you concerning that which
you differed.”
Koran 3:56 “As for those disbelieving infidels, I
will punish them with a terrible agony in this world and the next. They have
no one to help or save them.” Koran 3:58 “This is
what We rehearse to you of the Signs and Message, a wise reminder. The
similitude (likeness) of Jesus before Allah is as that of Adam; He created him
from dust, then said to him: ‘Be.’ And he was.”
Koran 3:60 “The Truth (comes) from Allah alone. So be not of
those who doubt, waver or dispute. If any one disputes in this matter with
you, now after knowledge has come to you, say: ‘Come! Let us gather together
our sons and women among ourselves. Then let us earnestly pray, and invoke the
curse of Allah on those who lie!’”
Koran 3:61 “If anyone disputes with you about Jesus
being divine, flee them and pray that Allah will curse them.” Koran
3:62 “This is the true account, the true explanation: There is
no Ilah (God) except Allah; and Allah—He is the Mighty, the Wise. And if
they turn away, then lo! Allah is aware of the corrupters, the
mischief-makers. Say: ‘O People of the Book, come to common terms as an
agreement between us and you: That we all shall worship none but Allah; that
we associate no partners with him; and that none of us shall take others for
lords beside Allah.’ If then they turn back, say you: ‘Bear witness that
we (at least) are Muslims surrendered.”
Koran 3:67 “Abraham was not a Jew nor yet a
Christian; but he was a true Muslim, surrendered to Allah (which is Islam),
and he joined not gods with Allah.” 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, but they perceive not. 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 3:118 “O you who believe! Take not into your
intimacy those outside your religion (pagans, Jews, and Christians). They will
not fail to corrupt you. They only desire your ruin. Rank hatred has already
appeared from their mouths. What their hearts conceal is far worse. When they
are alone, they bite off the very tips of their fingers at you in their rage.
Say unto them: ‘Perish in your rage.’”
Koran 4:48 “Allah forgives not that partners
[Christ as God] should be set up with Him; but He forgives anything else, to
whom He please; to set up partners with Allah is to devise a sin most
heinous.”
Koran 4:50 “Behold! how they invent lies against Allah! That
is flagrant sin.”
Koran 4:51 “Have you not seen those to whom a portion of the
Book has been given? They believe in sorcery and false deities and say of
those who disbelieve: these are better guided than those who believe. They are
(men) whom Allah has cursed: And those whom Allah has cursed, you will find
that they have no savior.”
Koran 4:54 “Are they jealous and envious what Allah
has given them of his bounty? But We had already given the house of Abraham
the Book, and conferred upon them a grand kingdom. Some of them believed, and
some of them averted their faces from him. And Hell is sufficient for their
burning. Those who reject our Signs, We shall soon cast into the Fire. As
often as their skin is burnt and singed, roasted through, We shall change it
for fresh skin, so that they may go on tasting the torment.” [top]
RACISM:
Ishaq:243 “I heard the Apostle say: ‘Whoever wants
to see Satan should look at Nabtal!’ He was a black man with long flowing
hair, inflamed eyes, and dark ruddy cheeks…. Allah sent down concerning him:
‘To those who annoy the Prophet there is a painful doom.” [9:61]
“Gabriel came to Muhammad and said, ‘If a black man comes to you his heart
is more gross than a donkey’s.’”
Ishaq:144 “A rock was put on a slave’s chest. When
Abu Bakr complained, they said, ‘You are the one who corrupted him, so save
him from his plight.’ I will do so,’ said Bakr. ‘I have a black slave,
tougher and stronger than Bilal, who is a heathen. I will exchange him. The
transaction was carried out.”
Koran 9:97 “The Arabs of the desert are the worst
in unbelief and hypocrisy, and most fitted to be in ignorance of the command
which Allah hath sent down to His Messenger.”
Tabari II:11 “Shem, the son of Noah was the father of
the Arabs, the Persians, and the Greeks; Ham was the father of the Black
Africans; and Japheth was the father of the Turks and of Gog and Magog who
were cousins of the Turks. Noah prayed that the prophets and apostles would be
descended from Shem and kings would be from Japheth. He prayed that the
African’s color would change so that their descendants would be slaves to
the Arabs and Turks.”
Tabari II:21 “Ham [Africans] begat all those who are
black and curly-haired, while Japheth [Turks] begat all those who are
full-faced with small eyes, and Shem [Arabs] begat everyone who is handsome of
face with beautiful hair. Noah prayed that the hair of Ham’s descendants
would not grow beyond their ears, and that whenever his descendants met
Shem’s, the latter would enslave them.”
Tabari IX:69 “Arabs are the most noble people in
lineage, the most prominent, and the best in deeds. We were the first to
respond to the call of the Prophet. We are Allah’s helpers and the viziers
of His Messenger. We fight people until they believe in Allah. He who believes
in Allah and His Messenger has protected his life and possessions from us. As
for one who disbelieves, we will fight him forever in Allah’s Cause. Killing
him is a small matter to us.”
Bukhari: V9B89N256 “Allah’s Apostle said, ‘You
should listen to and obey your ruler even if he is a black African slave whose
head looks like a raisin.’”
Ishaq:405 “It is your folly to fight the Apostle, for
Allah’s army is bound to disgrace you. We brought them to the pit. Hell was
their meeting place. We collected them there, black slaves, men of no descent.
Ishaq:374 “The black troops and slaves of the Meccans cried out
and the Muslims replied, ‘Allah destroy your sight, you impious
rascals.’”
Bukhari:V4B52N137 “The Prophet said, ‘Let the negro
slave of Dinar perish. And if he is pierced with a thorn, let him not find
anyone to take it out for him.... If he [the black slave] asks for anything it
shall not be granted, and if he needs intercession [to get into paradise], his
intercession will be denied.’” [top]
WOMEN IN ISLAM:
Tabari IX:113 “Allah permits you to shut them in
separate rooms and to beat them, but not severely. If they abstain, they have
the right to food and clothing. Treat women well for they are like domestic
animals and they possess nothing themselves. Allah has made the enjoyment of
their bodies lawful in his Koran.”
Tabari I:280 “Allah said, ‘It is My obligation to
make Eve bleed once every month as she made this tree bleed. I must also make
Eve stupid, although I created her intelligent.’ Because Allah afflicted
Eve, all of the women of this world menstruate and are stupid.”
Koran 4:3 “If you fear that you shall not be able
to deal justly with orphans, marry women of your choice who seem good to you,
two or three or four; but if you fear that you shall not be able to do justice
(to so many), then only one, or (a slave) that you possess, that will be more
suitable. And give the women their dower as a free gift; but if they, of their
own good pleasure, remit any part of it to you, eat it with enjoyment, take it
with right good cheer and absorb it (in your wealth).”
Koran 4:11 “Allah directs you in regard of your
Children’s (inheritance): to the male, a portion equal to that of two
females…. These are settled portions ordained by Allah.”
Bukhari:V1B22N28 “The Prophet said: ‘I was shown the
Hell Fire and the majority of its dwellers were women who are disbelievers or
ungrateful.’ When asked what they were ungrateful for, the Prophet answered,
‘All the favors done for them by their husbands.’”
Muslim:B1N142 “‘O womenfolk, you should ask for
forgiveness for I saw you in bulk amongst the dwellers of Hell.’ A wise lady
said: Why is it, Allah’s Apostle, that women comprise the bulk of the
inhabitants of Hell? The Prophet observed: ‘You curse too much and are
ungrateful to your spouses. You lack common sense, fail in religion and rob
the wisdom of the wise.’ Upon this the woman remarked: What is wrong with
our common sense? The Prophet replied, ‘Your lack of common sense can be
determined from the fact that the evidence of two women is equal to one man.
That is a proof.’”
Koran 4:43 “Believers, approach not prayers with a
mind befogged or intoxicated until you understand what you utter. Nor when you
are polluted, until after you have bathed. If you are ill, or on a journey, or
come from answering the call of nature, or you have touched a woman, and you
find no water, then take for yourselves clean dirt, and rub your faces and
hands. Lo! Allah is Benign, Forgiving.” [The Koran claims women are
unclean and polluted—worse than dirt.]

the Israelis, meat would not decay, and if it were not for Eve, wives would

better.”

lewdness, take the evidence of four witnesses from amongst you against them;

them.”
Bukhari:V4B52N143/V5B59N523 “When we reached Khaybar,
Muhammad said that Allah had enabled him to conquer them. It was then that the
beauty of Safiyah was described to him. Her husband had been killed, so
Allah’s Apostle selected her for himself. He took her along with him till we
reached a place called Sad where her menses were over and he took her for his
wife, consummating his marriage to her, and forcing her to wear the
veil.’”

‘Will Safiyah be one of the Prophet’s wives or just a lady captive and one
of his possessions?’”

Messenger gave [his son-in-law] Ali a slave girl called Baytab and he gave

another.”
Bukhari:V3B48N826 “The Prophet said, ‘Isn’t the
witness of a woman equal to half of that of a man?’ The women said,

truth.’ So the Apostle called Burayra to ask her. Ali got up and gave her a
violent beating first, saying, ‘Tell the Apostle the truth.’”
Koran 24:1 “(This is) a surah which We have
revealed and made obligatory and in which We have revealed clear
communications that you may be mindful. For the woman and the man guilty of
adultery or fornication, flog each of them with a hundred stripes. Let not
compassion move you in their case, in a matter prescribed by Allah. And let a
party of the Believers witness their punishment.” Koran 24:6
“And for those who launch a charge against their wives, accusing them, but
have no witnesses or evidence, except themselves; let the testimony of one of
them be four testimonies, (swearing four times) by Allah that he is the one
speaking the truth.” [top]
STUPIDITY:
Bukhari:V6B61N550 “The Prophet said, ‘It is a bad
thing some of you say, “I have forgotten such-and-such verse of the Koran.”
For truly, I have been caused by Allah to forget it. So you must keep on
reciting the Koran because it escapes faster than a runaway camel.’”
Tabari I:299 “Scholars of the nation of our Prophet
say, ‘The tree which Allah forbade Adam and his spouse to eat was
wheat.’”
Tabari I:321 “When Eve became heavy with her first
pregnancy, Satan came to her before she gave birth and said, ‘Eve, what is
that in your womb?’ She said, ‘I do not know.’ He asked, ‘Where will
it come out from-your nose, your eye, or your ear?’ She replied, ‘I do not
know.’”
Tabari I:299 “It was the cover of fingernails that had
kept their secret parts concealed.”
Tabari I:275 “Satan wanted to meet them in Paradise,
but the keepers prevented him from entering. He went to a snake, an animal
with four feet like a camel. Satan tried to persuade it to let him enter its
mouth and take him to Adam. The snake agreed, passed by the keepers, and
entered without their knowledge, because that was Allah’s plan.”
Tabari I:278 “Adam went inside the tree to hide.
Eve cut the tree and it bled. Then feather that covered Adam and Eve dropped
off. So Allah said, ‘Now Eve, as you caused the tree to bleed, you will
bleed every new moon, and you, snake, I will cut off your feet and you will
walk slithering on your face.’”
Tabari I:279 “It was a tree which made whoever ate
from it defecate. But there must be no faeces in Paradise.”
Tabari I:281 “I heard him swear by Allah
unequivocally, ‘As long as Adam was in his right mind, he would never have
eaten from the tree. Eve gave him wine and got him drunk. She led him to the
tree.”

follows: He taught him the name of everything, down to fart and little
fart.”

prayer of a person who does Hadath (passes urine, stool or wind) is not
accepted till he performs ablution.’”

person who imagined they passed wind during prayer. He replied: ‘He should
not leave his prayer unless he hears sound or smells something.’”

makes water he should not hold his penis or clean his private parts with his
right hand. While drinking, one should not breathe in the utensil.’”
Bukhari:V1B4N163 “The Prophet said, ‘Whoever cleans
his private parts with stones should do it with an odd number of stones. And
whoever wakes up should wash his hands before putting them in the water for
ablution. Nobody knows where his hands were during sleep.’”
Bukhari:V1B4N174 “During the lifetime of Allah’s
Apostle dogs used to urinate and pass through the mosque. Nevertheless they
never used to sprinkle water on it.”
Tabari I:367 “The Apostles said to Jesus, ‘Would you
send us a man who saw the ark and could tell us about it.’ He took a handful
of the earth in his palm and asked, ‘Do you know what this is?’ ‘Allah
and His prophet know best!’ they replied. Jesus said, ‘This is the grave
of Noah’s son, Ham.’ He struck the hill with his staff and said, ‘Rise
with Allah’s permission!’ And behold there was Ham, with gray hair,
shaking the earth from his head. Jesus asked him whether he had perished in
that state with gray hair. Ham replied, ‘No when I died, I was a young man,
but I thought the Day of Doom had come, and my hair turned gray.’ Jesus
said, ‘Tell us about Noah’s ark.’ He said, ‘It was 1,200 cubits long
[nearly 4,000 feet] and 600 cubits wide. It had three stories, one for
domestic and wild animals, another for human beings, and a third for birds.
When the dung of the animals became excessive, Allah inspired Noah to tickle
the elephant’s tail. He did, and a male and female hog fell down and
attacked the dung. When the rat fell down into the seams of the planks of the
ark and gnawed at them, Allah inspired Noah to strike the lion between its
eyes and a male and female cat came out from its nose and attacked the
rat.’”
Tabari I:360 “The first animal to be put aboard was
the ant, and the last the donkey. When Noah brought the donkey in, Lucifer
attached himself to its tail, so that it could not lift its legs. Noah started
to say, ‘Woe to you. Go in.’ The donkey rose but was unable to move. Noah
said, ‘Woe to you. Go in even if Satan is with you.’ It was a slip of the
tongue, but when Noah said it, Satan let the donkey proceed. It went in, and
Satan went in with it. Noah said, ‘How did you get in here with me?’ Satan
replied, ‘You cannot escape from having me on board. Satan stayed in the
rear of the boat. Noah also carried along Adam’s corpse, making it a barrier
between the women and men.”
Tabari II:106 “Allah sent gnats against the
Babylonians, and they ate their flesh and drank their blood, and nothing but
their bones were left. But Allah gave Nimrod a single gnat which entered his
nostril and went on beating the inside of his head with hammers for four
hundred years. The most merciful of his friends was he who bunched up his
hands and beat Nimrod’s head with them.”
Tabari II:107 “Nimrod vowed to seek out Abraham’s
God. So he took four eagle fledglings and nurtured them on meat and wine so
that they grew up tough and strong. Then he tied them to a chest and sat in
it. He suspended a piece of meat over them and they flew up trying to reach
it. When they had risen high in the sky, Nimrod looked down and beheld the
earth. He saw the mountains crawling below like creeping ants. When they had
risen still higher he looked and saw the earth with a sea surrounding it.
After climbing still higher, he came into a region of darkness and could not
see what was above him nor what was below him. He became frightened and threw
the meat down. The eagles followed it, darting downward. When the mountains
saw them coming near and heard their noise, they became afraid and almost
moved from their places, but did not do so. As Allah says in the Koran,
‘Verily they have plotted their plot, and their plot is with Allah, even if
their plot were one whereby the mountains should be moved.’”

trees, hills, and dust said, ‘Here I am, my Allah, here I am.’”

vulva.”

in Jerusalem.’ ‘What was the period of construction between the two?’ He
said, ‘Forty years.’”
Tabari VI:66 “Umar said, ‘By Allah I was by one of
the idols of the Jahiliyyah. An Arab sacrificed a calf to it, and we were
waiting for it to be divided up in order to receive a share. I heard coming
from the belly of the calf a voice which was more penetrating than any I’ve
heard. The dead calf’s belly said, ‘There is no ilah but Allah.’”
Ishaq:85 “The people were afraid to demolish the
temple and withdrew in terror from it. Al-Walid said, ‘I will begin the
demolition.’ He took up his pickaxe and walked up to Allah’s House saying,

demolished part of it near the two corners.”

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 33:69 “Believers, be not like those who
annoyed Moses. Allah proved his innocence of that which they alleged.” Bukhari:V4B55N616
“Allah’s Apostle said, ‘The Prophet Moses was a shy person and used to
cover his body. An Israeli insulted him, saying, “He covers it because of
some defect like leprosy or scrotal hernia.” Allah wished to clear Moses of
this allegation, so one day he took off his clothes, put them on a stone and
started taking a bath. When he moved towards his clothes the stone took them
and fled. Moses picked up his staff and ran after the stone saying, “O
stone! Give me back my clothes!” He reached some Israelis who saw him naked,
and found him to be the best of what Allah had created. The stone stopped
there and Moses took his garments and started hitting the stone with his
stick. By Allah, the stone still has some traces of the hitting, three, four
or five marks. This was what Allah meant when he revealed the surah saying:
“Believers! Be you not like those who annoyed Moses. Allah proved his
innocence of that which they alleged.”’”

Al-Uzza in the lowland of Nakhlah. The Quraysh used to venerate her temple.
When Sulami heard of Khalid’s approach, he hung his sword on Al-Uzza,
climbed a mountain, and shouted: ‘O Uzza, make an annihilating attack on
Khalid. Throw aside your veil and gird up your train. O Uzza, if you do not
kill Khalid then bear a swift punishment or become a Christian.’ When Khalid
arrived he destroyed her and returned to the Apostle.” Tabari
VIII:187 “‘I have destroyed it,’ he said to Muhammad. ‘Did
you see anything?’ ‘No.’ ‘Then,’ Muhammad said, ‘go back and kill
her.’ So Khalid returned to the idol. He destroyed her temple and broke her
graven image. The shrine’s keeper began saying, ‘Rage, O Uzza, display one
of your fits of rage!’ Whereupon a naked, wailing Ethiopian woman came out
before him. Khalid killed her and took the jewels that were on her. Then he

Muhammad said. ‘Al-Uzza will never be worshiped again.’”

women. They flog them like slave girls. Then after flogging them like slaves
they comfort them in their beds as a result at the end of the day.’ He then
advised in regard to people laughing at the breaking of wind and said: ‘You
laugh at that which you yourself do.’”

and Syria. It has been mentioned that there were four million people in the
town.”

ISLAMIC SCIENCE:
Bukhari:V4B55N546 “Allah’s Apostle said, ‘Gabriel
has just now told me of the answer. If a man has sexual intercourse with his
wife and gets discharge first, the child will resemble him, and if the woman
gets discharge first, the child will resemble her.’”

sticky clay, meaning viscous and sweet smelling slime, being stinking. It
became stinking slime after having been compact soil.”
Koran 80:17 “Be cursed man! He has self-destructed.
From what stuff did He create him? From nutfa (male and female semen drops) He
created him and set him in due proportion.”
Tabari I:258 “Allah sent Gabriel to the earth to bring
Him some clay. The earth said, ‘I take refuge in Allah against you
mutilating me. Then He sent the angel of death. He took some soil from the
earth and made a mixture. He did not take it from a single place but took red,
white, and black soil. Therefore, the children of Adam came out different.”
Bukhari:V4B54N430 “Allah’s Apostle, the true and
truly inspired said, ‘Regarding the matter of the creation of a human being:
humans are put together in the womb of the mother in forty days. Then he
becomes a clot of thick blood for a similar period. He becomes a piece of
flesh for forty days. Then Allah sends an angel who is ordered to write four
things: the new creature’s deeds, livelihood, date of death, and whether he
will be blessed or wretched. He will do whatever is written for him.’”
Tabari I:293 “When Allah cast Adam down from Paradise,
Adam’s feet were on earth while his head was in heaven. He became too
familiar with the angels and they were in awe of him so much so that they
complained to Allah in their various prayers. Allah, therefore, lowered Adam.
But Adam missed what he used to hear from the angels and felt lonely. He
complained to Allah and was sent to Mecca. On the way every place where he set
foot became a village, and the interval between his steps became a desert
until he reached Mecca.”
Bukhari:V4B54N482 “Allah’s Apostle said, ‘The Hell
Fire complained to its Lord saying, “O my Lord! My different parts are
eating each other up.” So, He allowed it to take two breaths, one in winter,
the other in summer. This is the reason for the severe heat and bitter cold
you find in weather.’”

very hot, the severity of the heat is from the raging of the Hell Fire.’”

throwing out. Is it you who create it, or are We the Creators? [It’s only
natural—the god of lust is the god of semen.] We have
decreed/predestined/ordained Death for you all, and We are not to be
frustrated from replacing you with others in (forms) that you know not.”
Ishaq:255 “Jewish rabbis came to the Apostle and asked
him to answer four questions saying, ‘If you do so we will follow you,
testify to your truth, and believe in you.’ They began, ‘Why does a
boy resemble his mother when the semen comes from the father?’ Muhammad
replied, ‘Do you not know that a man’s semen is white and thick and a
woman’s is yellow and thin? The likeness goes with that which comes to the
top.’ ‘Agreed,’ the rabbis proclaimed. ‘Tell us about your sleep.’
‘Do you not know that a sleep which you allege I do not have is when the eye
sleeps but the heart is awake?’ ‘Tell us about what Israel [Jacob]
voluntarily forbade himself.’ ‘Do you not know that the food he loved best
was the flesh and milk of camels or perhaps two lobes of liver, kidneys, and
fat?’ ‘Tell us about the spirit.’ ‘‘Do you not know that it is
Gabriel, he who comes to me?’ ‘Agreed,’ the rabbis said. ‘But
Muhammad, your spirit is an enemy to us, an angel who comes only with violence
and the shedding of blood, and were it not for that we would follow you.”
Koran 33:72 “We did indeed offer the opportunity to
the Heavens, the Earth, the Mountains, but they refused to take it, being
afraid (of Allah’s torment). But man undertook it. He was unjust and
foolish. Lo, he has proved a tyrant and fool, ignorant. Allah has to punish
the Hypocrites, men and women, and the Unbelievers.” [top]
ALLAH’S ASTRONOMY:
Tabari I:232 “Gabriel brings to the sun a garment of
luminosity from the light of Allah’s Throne according to the measure of the
hours of the day. The garment is longer in the summer and shorter in the
winter, and of intermediate length in autumn and spring. The sun puts on that
garment as one of you here puts on his clothes.”
Tabari I:233 “When the Messenger was asked about that,
he replied, ‘When Allah was done with His creation He created two suns from
the light of His Throne. His foreknowledge told Him that He would efface one
and change it to a moon; so the moon is smaller in size.”
Tabari I:234 “Allah thus sent Gabriel to drag his wing
three times over the face of the moon, which at the time was a sun. He effaced
its luminosity and left the light in it. This is what Allah means: [in
Koran 17:12] ‘We have blotted out the sign of the night, and We have made
the sign of the day something to see by.’ The blackness you can see as lines
on the moon is a trace of the blotting.”
Tabari I:244 “Allah then created for the sun a chariot
with 360 handholds from the luminosity of the light of the Throne and
entrusted 360 of the angels inhabiting the lower heaven with the sun and its
chariot, each of them gripping one of those handholds. Allah also entrusted
360 angels with the moon.”
Tabari I:234 “Then the Prophet said: ‘For the sun
and the moon, Allah created easts and wests on the two sides of the earth and
the two rims of heaven. There are 180 springs in the west of black clay-this
is why Allah’s word says: “He found the sun setting in a muddy spring.”
[18:86] The black clay bubbles and boils like a pot when it boils
furiously.’”
Koran 18:83 “They ask you about Dhu’l-Qarnain
[Alexander the Great]. Say, ‘I will cite something of his story. We gave him
authority in the land and means of accomplishing his goals. So he followed a
path until he reached the setting place of the sun. He saw that it set in
black, muddy, hot water. Near it he found people.”
Tabari I:236 “‘When the sun rises upon its chariot
from one of those springs it is accompanied by 360 angels with outspread
wings…. When Allah wishes to test the sun and the moon, showing His servants
a sign and thereby getting them to obey, the sun tumbles from the chariot and
falls into the deep end of that ocean. When Allah wants to increase the
significance of the sign and frighten His servants severely, all of the sun
falls and nothing of it remains in the chariot. That is a total eclipse of the
sun. It is a misfortune for the sun.’”
Tabari I:235 “Allah’s Apostle said, ‘Allah created
an ocean three farakhs (918 kilometers) removed from heaven. Waves contained,
it stands in the air by the command of Allah. No drop of it is spilled. All
the oceans are motionless, but that ocean flows at the speed of an arrow. The
sun, moon and retrograde stars [planets] by which Allah swears in the Koran
[81:15], run like the sun and moon and race. All of the other
stars are suspended from heaven as lamps are from mosques, and circulate
together praising Allah. The Prophet said, ‘If you wish to have this made
clear, look to the circulation of the sphere alternately here and there.’”
Tabari I:236 “Allah created two cities out in space,
each with ten thousand gates, each 6 kilometers distant from the other. By
Allah, were those people not so many and so noisy, all the inhabitants of this
world would hear the loud crash made by the sun falling when it rises and when
it sets. Gabriel took me to them during my Night Journey from the Sacred
Mosque [the Ka’aba] to the Farthest Mosque [the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem].
I told the people of these cities to worship Allah but they refused to listen
to me.”
Bukhari:V4B54N421 “I walked hand in hand with the
Prophet when the sun was about to set. We did not stop looking at it. The
Prophet asked, ‘Do you know where the sun goes at sunset?’ I replied,
‘Allah and His Apostle know better.’ He said, ‘It travels until it falls
down and prostrates Itself underneath the Throne. The angels who are in charge
of the sun prostrate themselves, also. The sun asks permission to rise again.
It is permitted. Then it will prostrate itself again but this prostration will
not be accepted. The sun then says, “My Lord, where do You command me to
rise, from where I set or from where I rose?” Allah will order the sun to
return whence it has come and so the sun will rise in the west. And that is
the interpretation of the statement of Allah in the Koran.’”
Koran 36:38 “The sun keeps revolving in its orbit
at the dispensation of the All-Knowing. And the Moon, We have measured for her
mansions till she returns like dried date stalks. It is not permitted for the
Sun to overtake the Moon, nor can the Night outstrip the Day. Each (just)
swims along, floating in (its own) orbit as a Sign as in a race. And we made
similar vessels [chariots] for them to ride. But we could have drowned them if
we pleased.”
Tabari I:332 “The sun and the moon were in eclipse for
seven days and nights.”
Koran 67:3 “We created seven heavens, one above the
other. Muhammad, can you see any fault in Ar-Rahman’s creation? Look again:
Can you see any rifts or fissures? Then look again and yet again. Your gaze
turns back dazed and tired. We have adorned the lowest skies with lamps, and
We have made them missiles to drive away the devils and against the stone
Satans, and for them We have prepared the doom of Hell and the penalty of
torment in the most intense Blazing Fire.”
Koran 38:27 “We have not created the heavens and
earth and all that lies between for nothing.”
Koran 21:26 “Don’t the unbelievers see that the
heavens and earth were joined together in one piece before we clove them
asunder? ...Will they not believe? And We have set on the earth mountains as
stabilizers, lest the earth should convulse without them. And We have made
therein broad highways for them to pass through, that they may be guided. We
have made the heaven a roof well guarded. Yet they turn away from its Signs!
All (the celestial bodies) swim along, on a course, floating.”
Koran 2:189 “They ask you about the New Moons. Say:
They are but signs to mark fixed seasons in (the affairs of) men, and for Hajj
Pilgrimage.”
Tabari I:204 “I asked the Prophet, ‘Where was Allah
before His creation?’ Muhammad replied: ‘He was in a cloud with no air
underneath or above it.’”
Tabari I:219 “When Allah wanted to create the
creation, He brought forth smoke from the water. The smoke hovered loftily
over it. He called it ‘heaven.’ Then He dried out the water and made it
earth. He split it and made it seven earths on Sunday. He created the earth
upon a big fish, that being the fish mentioned in the Koran. By the Pen,
the fish was in the water. The water was upon the back of a small rock. The
rock was on the back of an angel. The angel was on a big rock. The big rock
was in the wind. The fish became agitated. As a result, the earth quaked, so
Allah anchored the mountains and made it stable. This is why the Koran
says, ‘Allah made for the earth firmly anchored mountains, lest it shake you
up.’” [top]
