Many people think that the Quran discourages wheezing. It

00:00:03 --> 00:00:07

discourages arguing, in fact Allah subhanaw taala says today Ibrahim

00:00:07 --> 00:00:12

chapter 14 was Psalm 52 Your is a message let them take wanting

00:00:12 --> 00:00:15

their off and let them know that there's one God let men of

00:00:15 --> 00:00:16

understanding take heed.

00:00:17 --> 00:00:21

Many of the Muslims think the Quran it discourages reasoning. It

00:00:21 --> 00:00:25

discourages arguing with people. In fact Allah subhanaw taala says

00:00:25 --> 00:00:28

and so in the health chapter I'm 16 was the 125 although Allah

00:00:28 --> 00:00:33

Sabina bakeable Hikmah well more Is it the hustler version humility

00:00:33 --> 00:00:37

acid in white all the way of dialogue with wisdom and beautiful

00:00:37 --> 00:00:41

teachings and argue with them and reasoned with them in the ways

00:00:41 --> 00:00:42

that our best and most gracious

00:00:44 --> 00:00:48

so the Quran encourages reasoning. It encourages arguing with people.

00:00:48 --> 00:00:52

But with hikma and Husna. In the ways that are best and most

00:00:52 --> 00:00:56

gracious, let something known as exhausting of the alternatives.

00:00:57 --> 00:01:01

You say, the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, he lied that he

00:01:01 --> 00:01:04

was not thought of the grace grant. And he said that Almighty

00:01:04 --> 00:01:07

God was the author of the Quran, he did for material gain. And he

00:01:07 --> 00:01:11

proved that wrong. Later on you say he did for power, status and

00:01:11 --> 00:01:15

glory and leadership and you prove that wrong. Later on. You say they

00:01:15 --> 00:01:19

did for unity of the Arabs and you prove that to wrong. So your each

00:01:19 --> 00:01:24

and every alternative is getting exhausted. So now you need to give

00:01:24 --> 00:01:28

a hearing to the Quran. The Quran has to be from Almighty God. Allah

00:01:28 --> 00:01:32

Subhana Allah sinteres Joshua Chaplin 45 was the one and two

00:01:32 --> 00:01:36

hammy 10 Zero Kitab women hola hola. Aziz lucky. This is the book

00:01:36 --> 00:01:40

from the Lord of the world's most wise full of wisdom. And this is

00:01:40 --> 00:01:43

mentioned seven places in the Glorious Quran in surah Nam

00:01:43 --> 00:01:46

chapter six verse, Psalm 19 Salam chapter six, verse 93, through use

00:01:46 --> 00:01:49

of chapter 12, verse number one and two. So the TA chapter 20

00:01:49 --> 00:01:53

verse, Psalm 130. So they start that chapter on 32 verses 1233

00:01:53 --> 00:01:57

asti in chapter 36 was from one to three resumo chapter 39 was number

00:01:57 --> 00:02:00

one. So there's often chapter 14 Verse number two, to the Joshua

00:02:00 --> 00:02:04

chapter four, if I was to look into chapter five, verse number

00:02:04 --> 00:02:07

one and two, as well as to insan chapter number 76 was number 23.

00:02:08 --> 00:02:11

These are the way this was who Allah subhanaw taala says that

00:02:11 --> 00:02:12

he's the author of the Quran.

00:02:15 --> 00:02:17

Now, many of the scientists What do they say that they are very

00:02:17 --> 00:02:21

busy did not have any time. So, when you come up with a theory,

00:02:21 --> 00:02:24

you have to show us a way how to prove your theory wrong, then your

00:02:24 --> 00:02:29

theory will be accepted. Albert Einstein in the 20th century, he

00:02:29 --> 00:02:32

came up with the theory and he showed three ways how to prove his

00:02:32 --> 00:02:36

theory wrong. Later on his theory after six years it was accepted.

00:02:37 --> 00:02:41

So you may have a theory it may not be a great work. It may be

00:02:41 --> 00:02:43

right or wrong, but it has to be accepted. There may be many

00:02:43 --> 00:02:47

falsification tests that a person may come up with, but it needs to

00:02:47 --> 00:02:48

be heard.

00:02:49 --> 00:02:53

You may have many theories right or wrong. It may not be a great

00:02:53 --> 00:02:57

work, but it needs to be heard. Similarly in the Quran, there are

00:02:57 --> 00:03:00

many falsification test. If you want to put the Quran wrong. It is

00:03:00 --> 00:03:04

so easy. There are so many falsification tests. And we'll

00:03:04 --> 00:03:08

discuss just a few regarding Abu Lahab. And he was given the title

00:03:08 --> 00:03:12

of Father of the flame. He was one of the staunchest enemies of the

00:03:12 --> 00:03:15

Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam, and he was unclothed the Prophet

00:03:15 --> 00:03:16

sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.

00:03:17 --> 00:03:20

When I was someone talks with the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam,

00:03:20 --> 00:03:23

and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam when he used to tell

00:03:23 --> 00:03:26

that person What did the Prophet tell you? They didn't tell you

00:03:26 --> 00:03:29

they know it's night didn't tell you black No, it's white.

00:03:30 --> 00:03:34

He many times even lied to prove the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa

00:03:34 --> 00:03:38

sallam wrong. In fact, there's a chapter in the Glorious Quran

00:03:38 --> 00:03:43

Chapter 111 Surah Lahab that is a flame. And Allah subhanaw taala

00:03:43 --> 00:03:46

says that Abu Lahab and his wife, they will burn in the Hellfire

00:03:46 --> 00:03:51

that means they will never accept Islam. Only thing what a bull have

00:03:51 --> 00:03:55

had to do is to say that I am a Muslim, not that you would have to

00:03:55 --> 00:03:58

have a Salah not that you would have to give the car not that you

00:03:58 --> 00:04:01

would have to perform hajj, only thing you had to say is I am a

00:04:01 --> 00:04:03

Muslim, and the Quran would have been proved wrong.

00:04:04 --> 00:04:08

And after this was was revealed, he lived for 10 years. He had the

00:04:08 --> 00:04:12

time for 10 years to prove the Quran wrong. And many of his

00:04:12 --> 00:04:15

colleagues even accepted Islam and the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam

00:04:15 --> 00:04:19

was constantly telling him that to accept Islam in the Quran, he

00:04:19 --> 00:04:23

proved wrong. But Allah subhanaw taala knew it in his divine

00:04:23 --> 00:04:26

wisdom, but Abu Lahab will not accept Islam
