Dear Brothers and Sisters,
I have wonderful news. After intense study for many long periods of time I have discovered the following number miracles in the Qur'an, even more amazing and awe-inspiring than those already identified.
Let me start by giving you some of the astonishing miracles already discovered in case these have passed you by (these are readily available all over the internet and in all good book shops, but for reference and so you can check I'll link to the book, Astonishing Facts about the Quran available now as an ebook and to the site Miracles of the Qur'an ) and after each amazing number miracle I will reveal what I have discovered. (Please do check my maths on any Qur'an search engine). If any Muslim is offended at what I have discovered, please remember that it was the Muslim miracle seekers who started this whole business in the first place...
the word "Muhammad" appears 4 times in the Holy Qur'an ..the word "Sharia" appears 4 times!" ... as do the words SEX, PAIN, LIE and MURDER.
the words "wine" (khamr) and "intoxication" (saqara) are repeated in the Qur'an the same number of times: 6 ...do I need to add anything here? Seems to me Allah is doing our job for us...
day (yawm / يوم) (should that be yawn?) appears 365 times er...no it doesn't. And anyway, there are so many variants you can come up with any figure between 222 & 476!
The number of repetitions of the words "plant" and "tree" is the same: 26 OMG - I'm a believer! "Breast" is mentioned twice as many times (6) as "naked" (3) and women have two breasts and we all like...(er, that's enough -ed)
The word "payment or reward" is repeated 117 times, while the expression "forgiveness" (mughfirah), which is one of the basic morals of the Qur'an, is repeated exactly twice that amount, 234 times. Well, I'll be damned! "Muhammad" (4) used to "steal" (3) "slaves" (12) on his raiding parties (4x3=12!!)
The word "satan" (shaitan) is used in the Qur'an 88 times, as is the word "angels" (malaika). Again, is this really something you want to publicise? What does it prove exactly?
The word "land" appears 13 times in the Qur'an and the word "sea" 32 times, giving a total of 45 references. If we divide that number by that of the number of references to the land we arrive at the figure 28.888888888889%. The number of total references to land and sea, 45, divided by the number of references to the sea in the Qur'an, 32, is 71.111111111111%. Extraordinarily, these figures represent the exact proportions of land and sea on the Earth today. (I love this one! As b*llocks go, these are great, big sweaty pendulous ones. For starters, the ratio is CONSTANTLY CHANGING) The word "Prophet" appears 159 times. The word "False" appears 43 times. A ratio of 3.697 - amazingly the same ratio as the words "lies" and "war"!And that's NUMBERWANG!
My iman was weak, but this has given me all the Texan sharpshooter goodness I need! With renewed zeal, I shall proceed to make YouTube videos, visit non-Muslim forums and demand they explain these undeniable miracles - and I shall certainly not sound like an imbecile!
ReplyDeleteThese idiots ate just feuling disrespect toward Muslims with these insane things they are coming up with.
ReplyDeleteAnything that relies on a calculator & geology to prove miraculousness has already moored their point through using man made measurements in the first place.
That argument is like a straw house in a hurricane zone - destined for collapse
My intelligent, cultured friend apparently believed the day-month one as well as the land-sea rubbish. If someone like him (post-grad level educated)can fall victim to this hogwash, what hope is there for those less fortunate who haven't received a decent education?
ReplyDeleteI've often read those who've apostacised shamefully admitting that they once believed shit like this. They can see how incredibly stupid it is now. So while stupidity helps, there's a lot more to going on in their heads that cuts them off from the logical part of their brains.
ReplyDeleteI saw a documentary last night where a conspiracy theorist was shown evidence that debunked his theories. He stubbornly persisted in coming out with all sorts of crazy shit, but finally snapped out of it when another person expressed how pissed off they were with him and how illogical he was. He got really upset with the very personal criticism. The emotional shock seems to have jolted him to his senses. It seemed like there was a strong emotional pain that made him need and cling to these crazy ideas, but deep down had known it was bollocks.
These Quran miracle guys have a thick skin bearing a lot of insults of youtube comments and suchlike, but I wonder if a face-to-face, frank and very personal criticism would work wonders for a lot of them. It seems to be the guys with obvious inner conflicts that go for this miracle nonsense.
A face to face frank criticism between you and me and an Arabic Qur'an between us will get you slapped a thousand times for your sheer ignorance of Islam and the Qur'an! You and those who think like you, and pardon my language, are no more than flatus inflated balloons that stink so terribly when proven wrong....don't think for a moment that you know what you'r talking about, you may fool other balloons though , good luck with your delusions :-)
DeleteAnything to add to the debate, Sierraman or does your argument consist entirely of name-calling?
DeleteGood points, Anon. Blind faith or cognitive dissonance...call it what you will - it's pretty damn frightening whichever way you look at it.
ReplyDeleteWas this documentary you were referring to about the London bombings and presented by the Irish comedian? His one on the 9-11 conspiracy nuts was excellent.
Yeah that was the one, t'was good. Conspiracy theorists seem to have many similarities in how they think with a certain modern type of religious believer.
ReplyDeleteBoth endlessly scour the web to feed their confirmation bias. Both see a malevolent force orchestrating whatever they see as wrong in the world (NWO / Satan) and which they can blame for personal failure in life. Both get a sense of purpose or mission, both build some self esteem for seeing "the truth" that others deny, both think others are willfully blind because they love being enslaved / sin, both dream of future vindication (illuminati exposed / judgement day). But at least the conspiracy nuts lack a dogmatic text that encourages them to see non believers as wrongdoers, unlike one religion.
Why do you assume that those who follow Islam are all cretinous, gullible morons?
ReplyDeleteSome of us have reflected long and hard, weighed up the evidence and come to the conclusion that the Qur'an is the word of God and Muhammad (pbuh) is his messenger.
Just because you don't believe the miracles doesn't make them any less true, my friend.

This should have taken you a while to do!
ReplyDeletequr'an search engines are wonderful things for anally retentive researchers who don't want to spend their precious lives poring over the holy book with pencil poised...It's amazing what you can discover.

ReplyDelete....
Oh, sorry - I appear to be in the wrong blog.
(Love the discussions by the way)
hey buddy you forgot to mention
ReplyDeletethe quran says that jesus pbuh is the same as adam
jesus and adam are both mentioned 25 times.
seven heavens, 7 times
iron (im not talking about the part where it says sent down) iron is the 57th chapter; right in the middle of the quran which is 114 chapters
thats a 1/114 chance.
worry 13
reassurance 13
surat al baqarah 286 verses verse number 143 (and we have made you a just community) the arabic word wasat meaning middle &or just http://quran.com/2/143
the creator of the heavens of the earth master of the day of judgment knows best
i wish you a good life a happy life and hopefully one day the truth
to most of those idiots here claiming the Qur'an has no particular miraculous aspects I say: how thick is your skin to deny facts that are substantiated by knowledgeable Muslims and by modern scientific facts and also quantifiable numbers!? The Qur'an has an empirical evidence but you are so damn blind and so arrogant to see it...loosen up a little and use your function-less brains and maybe , just maybe, you would be able to see something. I was an idiot like you for some time, but when (unlike you) I examined every single claim objectively, I also came to the conclusion that the Qur'an is NOT just an ordinary book, it is THE book of the CREATOR. I give no shit if you see or see not what I see, what concerns me is that I see that which you see not and I believed.
ReplyDeleteThanks forthe info.. but Id like it better if you'd shown more respect towards muslims.. you may realize that this is a big deal for muslims. so if you want your religion to be respected.. respect everyone else's
ReplyDeleteThanks
I enjoyed reading this from you and wish you all the best and may Allah guide you. The Qur'an is the only HOLY book which is relevant up to date. If you read the Qur'an and compare it to other holy man-made books, the difference is clear. The bible spoke about Prophet David committing murder and Adultery , Solomon having 300 GIRL Friends of all sizes, JESUS DRINKING LEFT AND right . MAY Allah forgive those who authored the bible. In the bible, God asked his people to go and rape all virgins in the land of Canaan and slaughter all innocence infants. These are clearly stated in the bible. I can quote for you the exact chapters and verses
ReplyDeleteThe Quran is extremely wonderful and would stand the text of time. Not even a word is corrupted from the original delivered from Allah. I love your propaganda any way . But propaganda is no more working against islam as it continuous to gro faster than any other religion. after reading the Quran, if you do not convert, then Allah has blinded you just like he said " (the state of a disbeliever) is like the darkness in a vast deep sea, overwhelmed with waves topped by waves, topped by dark clouds, (layers of) darkness upon darkness: if a man stretches out his hand, he can hardly see it! And he for whom Allah has not appointed light, for him there is no light”(The Quran, 24:40 ). For the Quran to say this about you, think twice because modern scientists just found out about depth sea darkness.
ReplyDeleteyou are one silly man, I mean the author of this article, I'm laughing hardheartedly at you and in a flash dismiss you as another ignorant soul :-)...remain in your ignorance for what you don't know wont make you pleased.
