ALLAH THE IMPOSTOR

ALLAH THE IMPOSTOR

Any accusation is invalid if it is not substantiated by facts and evidences. In recognition of this vital principle, we will provide irrefutable evidences to prove why Allah is an impostor. What is more, our evidences will be based solely on the Quran. This article is a must for Muslims. The Quran testifies that Allah revealed the Gospel and bestowed it on Jesus. It claims that Allah is the source behind the inspiration of the Gospel. But is this claim of Allah true? Let us first look at this claim of Allah:

Surah 5:46-47: And We caused Jesus, son of Mary, to follow in their footsteps, confirming that which was revealed before him in the Torah, and We bestowed on him the Gospel wherein is guidance and a light . . . Let the People of the Gospel judge by that which Allah has revealed therein. Whoso judges not by that which Allah has revealed, such are evildoers.” (Pickthall)

Allah clearly testifies that he revealed the Gospel to Jesus. We will now prove why this claim of Allah is a preposterous lie. Please read through to the end of this article to understand why this claim is absolutely false. Jesus was sent as a Messenger of God centuries after the time of Moses. As both Biblical and Historical references prove, Jesus appeared about fifteen hundred years after Moses. This means that the Gospel was revealed centuries after the time of Moses. Muslims do not dispute this fact since Allah himself acknowledges this truth in the Quran. However, Allah made a huge blunder by contradicting his own teachings. Carefully consider the evidences in the following Quranic verses.

Surah 7:155-157 reveals to us a heartfelt Prayer of Moses and the Response of Allah to his prayer:

Surah 7:155: And Moses chose seventy of his people for Our place of meeting: When they were seized with violent quaking, he prayed: “O my Lord! If it had been Your Will, You could have destroyed, long before, both them and me: Would You destroy us for the deeds of the foolish ones among us? This is no more than Your trial: By it You cause whom You will to stray, and You lead whom You will into the right path. You are our Protector: So forgive us and give us Your mercy; for You are the best of those who forgive.

Surah 7:156: And ordain for us that which is good in this life and in the Hereafter: For we have turned unto You.” He (Allah) said: “With My punishment I visit whom I will; but My mercy extends to all things. That mercy I shall ordain for those who do right, and practice regular charity, and those who believe in Our signs;-

 Surah 7:157: those who follow the messenger, the unlettered Prophet, whom they find mentioned in their own scriptures, – in the Law and the Gospel; – for he commands them what is just and forbids them what is evil; he allows them as lawful what is good (and pure) and prohibits them from what is bad (and impure); He releases them from their heavy burdens and from the yokes that are upon them. So it is those who believe in him, honor him, help him, and follow the light which is sent down with him it is they who will prosper.” (Yusuf Ali)

We will now analyze the above Quranic verses step by step to expose the blunder of Allah in the Quran:

THE PRAYER OF MOSES TO ALLAH 

The Prayer of Moses begins in Surah 7:155

Surah 7:155: And Moses chose seventy of his people for Our place of meeting: When they were seized with violent quaking, he prayed: “O my Lord! If it had been Your Will, You could have destroyed, long before, both them and me: Would You destroy us for the deeds of the foolish ones among us? This is no more than Your trial: By it You cause whom You will to stray, and You lead whom You will into the right path. You are our Protector: So forgive us and give us Your mercy; for You are the best of those who forgive.

And the Prayer of Moses continues on until the first part of Surah 7:156(a) 

Surah 7:156(a): And ordain for us that which is good in this life and in the Hereafter: For we have turned unto You.” 

THE RESPONSE OF ALLAH TO THE PRAYER OF MOSES

Allah’s Response begins in the second part of Surah 7:156(b)

Surah 7:156(b): He said: “With My punishment I visit whom I will; but My mercy extends to all things. That mercy I shall ordain for those who do right, and practice regular charity, and those who believe in Our signs;-

 And Allah’s Response continues on right to the end of Surah 7:157 

Surah 7:157: those who follow the messenger, the unlettered Prophet, whom they find mentioned in their own scriptures, – in the Law and the Gospel; – for he commands them what is just and forbids them what is evil; he allows them as lawful what is good (and pure) and prohibits them from what is bad (and impure); He releases them from their heavy burdens and from the yokes that are upon them. So it is those who believe in him, honor him, help him, and follow the light which is sent down with him it is they who will prosper.”

The structure of the above Quranic verses is simple to follow and easy to understand:

From Verse 155 to Verse 156a is the Prayer of Moses in which he pleads with Allah for forgiveness and mercy.

And Allah’s Response to the Prayer of Moses begins in Verse 156b and continues on right through to the end of Verse 157.

In response to the plea of Moses for “forgiveness and mercy,” Allah specifies the four types of persons who will be shown “mercy” by him. In Verse 156b and Verse 157, Allah identifies them as follows:

 (i) Those who do right

(ii) Those who practice regular charity

(iii) Those who believe in Our signs

(iv) And those who follow the messenger, the unlettered Prophet, whom they find mentioned in their own scriptures, – in the Law and the Gospel.

The above clarification was a direct response of Allah to the Prayer of Moses who pleaded for “forgiveness” and “mercy” on behalf of the Israelites:

 “You are our Protector: So forgive us and give us Your mercy; for You are the best of those who forgive.”

This proves that the entire conversation between Allah and Moses in Surah 7:155-157 took place during the lifetime of Moses. It is important to remember this time-setting. Muslims have no problem in identifying the “unlettered Prophet” in the above Quranic verses as referring to Muhammad. As such, is this not a powerful testimony to prove the legitimacy of the prophethood of Muhammad? It would certainly be if this was true.

But there is a major problem with this claim in the Quran. It is one of the many instances where we find anachronisms or out of time references in the Quran. For Allah to specifically inform Moses that a reference of the unlettered Prophet can be found in the Gospel is not only absurd but also absolutely impossible. Why?  This is because the Gospel did not exist at the time of Moses. It was not available to Moses or to anyone else for that matter who lived during his time. And it will not be available until centuries later. So how can Allah make this ridiculous claim in the Quran?

Allah testified that the Israelites who lived during the time of Moses can find predictions of Muhammad “in the Law and the Gospel.” This is an obvious error in the Quran. How can the Israelites who lived at the time of Moses find predictions of Muhammad in the Gospel when the Gospel was not revealed for another fifteen hundred years? Muslim apologists are aware of this gross error in the Quran. Some desperate Muslims try to reconcile this erroneous passage in the Quran by claiming that the Quran is actually referring to the Gospel that would be revealed later to the Israelites. However, Allah is clearly referring to the Gospel which supposedly existed with the contemporaries of Moses. Let us look at the Quranic verse once again:

Surah 7:157: Those who follow the Messenger, the Prophet who can neither read nor write, whom they will find described in the Torah and the Gospel which are with them. (Pickthall)

As testified in the above Quranic verse, Allah is clearly referring to the Gospel which was “with them” at the time when he spoke to Moses. He is referring to the Gospel which was allegedly in the possession of the Israelites at the time of Moses. And to further confirm this, Allah spoke in the past-tense when he revealed this Quranic verse to Moses. He stated: “whom they find mentioned in the Torah and the Gospel.” Thus, Allah is clearly testifying that the Israelites can “find” a prophecy about Muhammad “mentioned in the Torah and the Gospel” that were already in their possession.

Since the Gospel was not revealed at the time of Moses, no Israelite will be able to “find” anything in this non-existing Gospel. The claim that the Bible predicted the coming of Muhammad is as good as the non-existing Gospel at the time of Moses. If that which is given as evidence for the authenticity of Muhammad’s prophethood turns out to be false, what does this reveal to us about the Prophet of Islam? He is as fake as the non-existing Gospel.

What can we learn from this colossal error in the Quran? Muhammad cannot be a Prophet of the true God. Being truly uneducated in the knowledge of the earlier Scriptures, Muhammad was unaware of an obvious blunder in the Quran. What is significant is how this ignorance of Muhammad made its way into the Quran. This means that either Muhammad himself wrote parts of the Quran or Allah is equally ignorant as his illiterate Prophet. Either way, this proves Islam false. It also proves that Allah cannot be the one who revealed the Gospel as he claims. Allah is but an impostor.

It is impossible to accept the Quran’s claim of divine authorship. The above error is just one out of the several time compressions that can found in the Quran. There are many other accounts of anachronism in the Quran involving several persons who in historical reality are separated by hundreds of years. The existence of such anachronisms in the Quran proves that it cannot be the product of an all-knowing God. Muhammad can be excused because he was unlettered but what excuse does Allah have? This gives us a powerful reason to reject Islam. The writings of the Gospel were inspired not by Allah but Jehovah – the only true and living God. It would be wise for Muslims to turn to Jehovah for their eternal salvation.
