The Qur’an and the Bible

Gen. James Green

T HE ORIENTALIST Samuel Zwemer wrote in “The Muslim Doctrines of God,” that: “There has been a strange neglect on the part of most writers who have described the religion of Muhammad to study his idea of God. It is so easy to be misled by a name or by etymologies. Nearly all writers take for granted that the God of the Qur’an is the same being and has like attributes as Jehovah or as the Godhead of the New Testament. Is this view correct?” (1905, American Tract Society). NO! The name Allah (Arabic) and Jehovah (God, Hebrew) are not the same in character.

Dr. Samuel Schlorff wrote in “Theological and Apologetical Dimensions of Muslim Evangelism,” the following: “I believe that the key issue is the question of the nature of God and how He relates to his creatures; Islam and Christianity are, despite formal similarities, worlds apart on that question” (“Westminster Theological Journal,” vol. 42, n. 2, 1980, p. 338). Most uniformed Christians go along with the Politically Correct Bull—that Christianity and Islam are compatible—Allah and God are the same. WAKE UP!

For Starters

OUR HOLY BIBLE states in John 17:3 that: “…this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent.”

“Eternal life” is more than endless existence, it is a SUPERNATURAL QUALITY (divine) we receive at salvation (this grows in us of course). Eternal Life lives in the born-again believer. Does Eternal Life live in the Muslim? NO! According to Islam, Allah is UNKNOWABLE (see my other articles). Allah is known ONLY thru the Qur’an, not personally.

Our Bible teaches that God does not lie (Titus 1:2 and Heb. 6:18). God of the Bible does not deceive, but in Islam, their god is a deceiver. Since Allah tricks and deceives, the Muslims are free to do the same. And they do!

Allah in the Bible?

MUSLIMS TRY to make Allah appear in our Scriptures. They point out that “Allah” is found in the Biblical word “allelujah.” The claim that the “alle” in the first part of this word is actually “Allah.” Really? This word is not Arabic, but Hebrew; plus, this Hebrew word is not a compound. It is a single word which means in Hebrew: “praise to Yahweh” (International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [ed. Orr.], II: 1323).

(The “jah” is reference to Yahweh, or Jehovah.)

They also try to convince us that Jesus’ words on the Cross, “Eli, Eli,” meant: “Allah, Allah.” Really? The Greek New Testament gives us the Aramaic, not the Arabic translation of a portion of Ps. 22:1.

Frankly, history proves all their attempts to be vain. Up until the 7th century when Islam’s (false) prophet made “Allah” in the “ONLY GOD,” Allah was the name of a pagan god/deity (moon god).

Names are supposed to represent nature. Even if “God” and “Allah” mean the same, this in no wise makes the Arabic god and the Hebrew/Greek/Aramaic God the same in nature.

Frankly, the Holy Bible and the unholy Qur’an are two competing books that DIFFER in their contents/texts and concept of deity. Muhammad came 600 years after Jesus Christ. The Qur’an thus comes after the completion of the New Testament.

Bible: Corrupt or Not?

I KEEP BRINGING up this point because millions of Bible-believing Christians have been MURDERED for owning, reading, and believing in the Holy Bible. As already shown, Muhammad pointed Muslims to the “People of the Book” for guidance and truth. Yet, these same “people” have been MURDERED over the centuries. Why?

When Muslims are challenged by Scripture and their (false) book contradicts our Bible, they always counter with: “The Bible is corrupt!” I’ve asked for proof many times, but they CAN’T produce any. Why? They do not have an UNCORRUPTED Bible to point out today’s CORRUPT Bible. Their word is enough. TO HELL with “their word,” I need proof. After all, the blood of the millions are on their hands over this very point. “Put up or shut up!!”

Tell Me!

IS THERE ANY manuscript evidence existing that we can view to show us ANY textual corruption? We must TRASH the BIG LIE that Islam means PEACE. HA!...It means SUBMISSION—all must submit to their murderous, hate-filled book called the Qur’an and the hadiths (and all others that quote them).

Muslims cannot produce ONE piece of evidence that our Bible has been corrupted (go back to when the New Testament was put together, not now. Today we do have corruptions—even a “Queen James” homosexual bible!).

Since the Qur’an claims to be free from ALL error as proof of its inspiration (85:21, 22), why don’t Muslims believe their own prophet—that the “Book” is true (see Suras 2-13, 16, 17, 20, 21, 23, 25, 26, 28, 29, 32, 34, 35, 39-48, 53, 54, 61, 62, 66, 74, 80, 87, 98 etc., etc. One really ought to ponder 2:136:

“Say ye: ‘We believe in God [Allah], and the revelation given to us, and to Abraham, Isma’il, Isaac, Jacob, and the Tribes, and that given to Moses and Jesus, and that given to (all) Prophets from their Lord: we make no difference between one and another of them: And we bow to God [Allah] (in Islam).” This is Islam’s creed. But this is hypocritical, for Muslims do not consider all the above truthful, for the Qur’an distorts their teachings.

Below are Things to Consider:

[WHAT THE QURAN SAYS:]

3:24 “They [Christians and Jews] say: The Fire will not touch us save for a certain number of days. That which they used to invent hath deceived them regarding their religion” (The Fire will burn them forever.)

3:28 “Let believers not make friends with infidels in preference to the faithful. He that does this has nothing to hope for from God.”

3:54 “Lord, we believe in Your revelations (the Torah and Gospels) and follow this Apostle (Jesus). Enroll us among the witnesses.’ But the Christians contrived a plot and Allah did the same; but Allah’s plot was the best.”

3:56 “As for those disbelieving infidels, I will punish them with a terrible agony in this world and the next. They have no one to help or save them.”

3:85 “He that chooses a religion other than Islam...in the world to come he will be one of the lost.

3.118 Believers, do not make friends with anyone but your own people.

4.101 The unbelievers are your inveterate enemies.

4.156 “They denied the truth and uttered a monstrous falsehood against Mary. They declared, “We have put to death the Messiah Jesus, the son of Mary, the apostle of Allah.” They did not kill him, nor did they crucify him, but they thought they did.”

4:171 “O people of the Book (Christians), do not be fanatical in your faith, and say nothing but the truth about Allah. The Messiah who is Isa (Jesus), son of Mariam, was only a messenger of Allah, nothing more. He bestowed His Word on Mariam and His Spirit. So believe in Allah and say not Trinity for Allah is one Ilah (God)...far be it from His Glory to beget a son.”

5.14 “With those who said they were Christians...we stirred among them enmity and hatred which shall endure until the day of Resurrection.”

5:37 “The (Christian) disbelievers will long to get out of the Fire, but never will they get out there from; and theirs will be an enduring torture.” 

9.5 Slay the idolaters wherever you find them...lie in ambush everywhere for them.

9.34 Many of the rabbis and the monks devour the wealth of mankind and wantonly debar men from the way of Allah.

9.73 “Prophet, make war on the unbelievers and the hypocrites and deal rigorously with them. Hell shall be their home, an evil fate.”

9:113 Don’t pray for idolaters (not even for your family) after it is clear they are people of hell-fire.

16:27-29 Disbelievers are evil and will dwell in hell forever.

16:94 Those who oppose Islam will face an awful doom.

18:52 Christians will cry out to Allah’s “partners,” but they won’t hear them; Allah will send them to their doom.

19:35-37 Jesus was not the Son of God. Those who say he was (Christians) are going to hell.

20:127 Those who do not believe Allah’s revelations will face doom in the Hereafter.

21:15 The people cried out for mercy, but Allah killed them anyway.

22:25 Allah will provide the disbelievers with a painful doom.

22:25 How many towns Allah has destroyed!

22:51 Those who disregard Allah’s revelations are the owners of the Fire.

22:57 Those who disbelieve Allah’s revelations will have a shameful doom.

22:72 Those who disbelieve Allah’s revelations will burn in the Fire.

22:9 Garments of fire have been prepared for the unbelievers. Scalding water shall be poured upon their heads, melting their skins and that which is in their bellies. They shall be lashed with rods of iron.

28:62-64 Allah will taunt Christians on the day of their doom, saying: Where are My partners whom ye imagined?

33:26 “And He brought those of the People of the Book [Jewish people of Banu Qurayza] who supported them from their fortresses and cast terror into their hearts, some of them you slew (beheaded) and some you took prisoners” (captive).

33:27 “And He made you heirs of their lands, their houses, and their goods, and of a land which ye had not frequented (before). And Allah has power over all things.” [Merciful Allah asked Prophet Muhammad to confiscate entire properties of surrendered Jews]

62:5 A hypocritical Jew looks like an ass carrying books. Those who deny the revelations of Allah are ugly.

Again, it is important to understand that Islam is not anti Jewish. Islam is anti kafir - the Jews being just one category of kafirs (of course the most reviled of kafirs.) Allah hates all kafirs no matter their race or color.

Repeating , - how can any rational, reasonable, normal, moral person believe that God would have as His prophet a killer, a murderer, a terrorist, and a sex pervert like Muhammad? He didn’t/doesn’t!

Muhammad was one of the greatest criminals in history. He ordered 60 massacres and personally was involved in 27 atrocities. The most important massacre of Muhammad was at Banu Qurayza because it is cross referenced by Allah (the AntiGod) in the Quran. 600 to 900 Jewish men were beheaded at Banu Qurayza and the women and young Jewish girls (who were not selected as sex slaves by the Muslim SS killers known as the (Companions) were sold into slavery. Muhammad selected one of the Jewish women to rape and be his sex slave.

In Muhammad- God had selected - the perfect executioner for enforcing the will of God. Here was a true apostle who would show no mercy. Here was an apostle who would not allow the crying of kafir women and children to touch his heart. Here was an apostle, who would stand as a moral example for all Muslim men to emulate through the ages.
