Many people think that the Quran discourages wheezing. It
discourages arguing, in fact Allah subhanaw taala says today Ibrahim
chapter 14 was Psalm 52 Your is a message let them take wanting
their off and let them know that there's one God let men of
understanding take heed.
Many of the Muslims think the Quran it discourages reasoning. It
discourages arguing with people. In fact Allah subhanaw taala says
and so in the health chapter I'm 16 was the 125 although Allah
Sabina bakeable Hikmah well more Is it the hustler version humility
acid in white all the way of dialogue with wisdom and beautiful
teachings and argue with them and reasoned with them in the ways
that our best and most gracious
so the Quran encourages reasoning. It encourages arguing with people.
But with hikma and Husna. In the ways that are best and most
gracious, let something known as exhausting of the alternatives.
You say, the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, he lied that he
was not thought of the grace grant. And he said that Almighty
God was the author of the Quran, he did for material gain. And he
proved that wrong. Later on you say he did for power, status and
glory and leadership and you prove that wrong. Later on. You say they
did for unity of the Arabs and you prove that to wrong. So your each
and every alternative is getting exhausted. So now you need to give
a hearing to the Quran. The Quran has to be from Almighty God. Allah
Subhana Allah sinteres Joshua Chaplin 45 was the one and two
hammy 10 Zero Kitab women hola hola. Aziz lucky. This is the book
from the Lord of the world's most wise full of wisdom. And this is
mentioned seven places in the Glorious Quran in surah Nam
chapter six verse, Psalm 19 Salam chapter six, verse 93, through use
of chapter 12, verse number one and two. So the TA chapter 20
verse, Psalm 130. So they start that chapter on 32 verses 1233
asti in chapter 36 was from one to three resumo chapter 39 was number
one. So there's often chapter 14 Verse number two, to the Joshua
chapter four, if I was to look into chapter five, verse number
one and two, as well as to insan chapter number 76 was number 23.
These are the way this was who Allah subhanaw taala says that
he's the author of the Quran.
Now, many of the scientists What do they say that they are very
busy did not have any time. So, when you come up with a theory,
you have to show us a way how to prove your theory wrong, then your
theory will be accepted. Albert Einstein in the 20th century, he
came up with the theory and he showed three ways how to prove his
theory wrong. Later on his theory after six years it was accepted.
So you may have a theory it may not be a great work. It may be
right or wrong, but it has to be accepted. There may be many
falsification tests that a person may come up with, but it needs to
be heard.
You may have many theories right or wrong. It may not be a great
work, but it needs to be heard. Similarly in the Quran, there are
many falsification test. If you want to put the Quran wrong. It is
so easy. There are so many falsification tests. And we'll
discuss just a few regarding Abu Lahab. And he was given the title
of Father of the flame. He was one of the staunchest enemies of the
Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam, and he was unclothed the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
When I was someone talks with the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam,
and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam when he used to tell
that person What did the Prophet tell you? They didn't tell you
they know it's night didn't tell you black No, it's white.
He many times even lied to prove the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam wrong. In fact, there's a chapter in the Glorious Quran
Chapter 111 Surah Lahab that is a flame. And Allah subhanaw taala
says that Abu Lahab and his wife, they will burn in the Hellfire
that means they will never accept Islam. Only thing what a bull have
had to do is to say that I am a Muslim, not that you would have to
have a Salah not that you would have to give the car not that you
would have to perform hajj, only thing you had to say is I am a
Muslim, and the Quran would have been proved wrong.
And after this was was revealed, he lived for 10 years. He had the
time for 10 years to prove the Quran wrong. And many of his
colleagues even accepted Islam and the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam
was constantly telling him that to accept Islam in the Quran, he
proved wrong. But Allah subhanaw taala knew it in his divine
wisdom, but Abu Lahab will not accept Islam
