Brazil and the "Free" Distribution of the Koran

According to an article published in the English language "Brazzil Magazine" on June 1, 2006, free copies of the Koran were distributed by Muslim academics, to the Sao Paulo Trade Association, Sao Paulo State University and the Sao Paulo City Council. Thousands more copies will be distributed to other Brazilian institutions, courtesy of the Saudi Embassy.


Inheritance

Who Taught Allah Math?
One of the most obvious mathematical mistakes of the Quran can be found in the division of the inheritance.

The laws of inheritance are spread out in several Suras. One can find references to them in Al-Baqarah(2), Al-Maidah(5) and Al-Anfal(8). But the details of these laws are spelled out in the Surah Nisa (4).

 


Quran Teaches

Verses from the Quran (translated in English) on topics related to apostasy, terror, unbelievers, afterlife, thieves, freedom or religion, women, and adultery.


The Day of Judgment

The Day of Judgment
Muslims believe that when a person dies two angels called Nakeer and Munkar visit him in his grave. They question him about his Faith, if he is found a believer his tomb is widened 70 cubits square (each cubit is one foot six inches) and it is illumined. Then he is told to go to sleep like a bridegroom until the day of resurrection when Allah raises him up to reward him. But if he is found a "hypocrite" they order the tomb to squeeze him until his ribs are crushed.


Madina Suras Saved Islam

When Allah awarded Prophet-hood to our Prophet, he ordered him to continue the peaceful teachings of prophet Jesus. These instructions came in the initial 87 Meccan Surahs (verses of Quran).

Our poor Apostle toiled with these ineffective Suras for 13 years without much success. With these useless verses, he managed to convert only his immediate family, friends and a few destitute pagans. Others mocked and laughed at him. They called him a fake, a liar and a charlatan.

The Zul-qarnain story was narrated in Qur’an by series of verses (18:83-98). Here let me cite a few verses related to Zul-qarnain story:

Quran-18:83—84: They ask thee concerning Zul-qarnain. Say “I will rehearse to you something of his story.” Verily We established his power on earth, and We gave him the ways and means to all ends.


Divinity of Quran

By Syed Kamran Mirza

June 1, 2001

Quran is anything but a divine book! When I myself read Quran---my intention was to search something or anything that was impossible for human beings to think, know, formulate, or imagine in the 7th century period. But to my utter surprise, I could not find a single statement, or fact in the Quran which could not be said/think/formulate/imagine by human beings. This statement is true for all religious books, not just Quran.


Fitnah and "Spreading Mischief"

Read between the linesUltimately, there are three questions of prime importance in determining the threat Islam poses to our civilization. First, there is the question of the meaning of jihad, which I've already covered extensively. Inevitably the next questions that arise, sprouting from the root of jihad, are, what is the meaning of fitnah, and what does it mean to spread mischief in the land?

There is always more than meets the eye when it comes to Islamic terminology.
