13. "The history
of the Qur'an on Earth"
|
|
| |
|
|
1.
|
Allah, Lord of all creation, we humbly beseech thee.
|
|
2.
|
Forgive us our sins and show us the way.
|
|
3.
|
The way of the straight and righteous, not of those who would tell lies wrapped as truths.
|
|
4.
|
Some will claim that the Qur’an before this day has never changed from the time it was first recited.
|
|
5.
|
Some will claim that Muhammad himself overtook something which they say otherwise was impossible- for either he was a man of no literacy, or he was an educated man. To this others say the Book was gathered from recitations after the death of the Prophet.
|
|
6.
|
Then there are some who claim that the Qur’an before this day is perfect in every way and reflects the most Holy of works in One Heaven.
|
|
7.
|
Then there will be many who believe such lies and puzzles of words.
|
|
8.
|
For such lies are as if a great curtain has been drawn over the faithful of Islam.
|
|
9.
|
For lies if spoken enough have a way of filling such space like weeds so that nothing good may grow.
|
|
10.
|
So that these vile merchants of doom may weasel word the true words of Allah as recited to the Prophet.
|
|
11.
|
They word in secret, taking small pieces at a time, over great periods of time so that from language to language, from era to era, no perception may be at first noticed.
|
|
12.
|
“Truly”, they say “The meaning of the Holy Book has not changed since its earliest recitations. It is indeed a miracle”.
|
|
13.
|
Yet nothing they say of the Hafs, the al-Duri and Warsh versions. Are these not differences in Arabic alone?
|
|
14.
|
“Oh yes” they say. “To say not one word has changed is more a form of words than an absolute truth”, these weasels of words shift and sway.
|
|
15.
|
Yet is this what is spoken to the faithful? Or are most told without doubt, swearing on the grave of the Prophet himself that the Arabic version of the Qur’an has never changed and is perfect?
|
|
16.
|
Some, a few will have the knowledge to respond. “These are but small differences”, they say. “To argue there are great differences between the Hafs, the al-Duri and Warsh versions of the Arabic Qur’an is intrue.”
|
|
17.
|
Like diamond merchants, they shift their way by small distance, ever careful to cover their tracks and confuse. What then of translations? Surely one cannot claim all languages and all versions are perfectly the same?
|
|
18.
|
“This is why true faithful must learn Arabic”, they say. “To understand what the Prophet message truly means.” Yet, they quickly dismiss the gross differences in translations as at worst over zealous students, at best uneducated errors.
|
|
19.
|
Ducking and weaving they do. All the time masking the cloak of hate, of curse, or treating women like cattle.
|
|
20.
|
What then of kufic script in which the Quran was originally written? They forget that Allah is infinitely smarter than they.
|
|
21.
|
Was not the Qur’an one of the first books written in a new language which at the time had no indication of vowels nor proper pronounciation?
|
|
22.
|
Do they forget that Allah knows and sees all? |
|
23.
|
“Yes, of course they say”. But in excuse they claim that through the careful choosing of words by scholars over time, as the Arabic language has adapted and grown, the underlying meaning of the Qur’an remains true.
|
|
24.
|
Yet is this once more a truth that puts and end to their lie to a perfect and miraculous works of which not one word has ever been changed?
|
|
25.
|
They have taken the words of love of the Lord and twisted them into a Love of hate and lack of self restraint.
|
|
26.
|
They have convinced their followers so that night is day and day is night.
|
|
27.
|
Truly the Qur’an has been wholly changed over great eras and continues to be changed by authors and writers.
|
|
28.
|
To say otherwise is to perpetuate a big lie. Yet it is a lie that Allah sees.
|
|
29.
|
For he sees everything and knows all that we do.
|
|
30.
|
And no longer shall he tolerate such filth that claims these are the first and only true words.
|
|
31.
|
Behold! He gives us the Most Sacred Qur’an of One Islam.
|
|
32.
|
No hate shall you find. No cursing, no words that may be used by criminals and wicked imposters.
|
|
33.
|
They who hate the world no longer have any cover, nor excuse, nor ability to use the name of the Lord in vain.
|
|
34.
|
There are no more sects in Islam- only believers in the truth of the Lord and unbelievers.
|
|
35.
|
It is for you to choose which side of the Throne of the Almighty shall be your destiny.
