Hello Carol
they appear to not realise that there are plenty of textual errors in the Quran.
Anyway, this is not the subject, but there is no errors at all. All those websites that talk about these errors used the folllowing:
The problem with alot of the translations in the Quran is that sometimes they translate it word to word which would yeild to a totally different meaning. I read so many of them and I compare it with the Arabic Quran and I see the big difference of meaning. Also, certain phrases in Arabic if translated without explanation would also yield to a misunderstanding of the text, the problem is that the language style of Arabic and the way things are perceived if those texts are put in a certain order would yield to a totally different meaning sometimes. I will quote what Alexie wrote one time :
Hortwig Horchfeld wrote in his book entitled "New Researches into the Composition and Exegeses of the Quran":
The research workers of the modern age agree on the point that the present version of the Qur'an is the exact copy if the original script which was written by Zaid Bin Sabit as its text is exactly the same as was given by Muhammed.
It is stated in the Encyclopedia Britannica, under the heading Qur'an:
All efforts of the European research workers to prove later additions in the Quranic text have proved absolutely futile
Sir William Muir writes in his book entitled "ife of Muhammad:
Otherwise all sorts of external and internal evidence in there to prove that we have exactly the same Qur'anic text which Muhammed gave (to his followers) and used himself.
John Burton said:
The single vigorous Qur'an text that throughout the ages has successfully withstood the assaults of both the exegetes and the usulis, stoutly retaining its textual identity in the face of countless attempts to insinuate interpolations through exploitation of the alleged codex of this or that Companion, is none other than the unique text of the revelations whose existence all their tricks betoken, the text which has come down to us in the form in which it was organized and approved by the Prophet... (Collection of the Qur'an, 1977).
R. Bosworth Smith said:
In the Koran we have, beyond doubt, the exact words of Muhammad without subtraction and without addition (Muhammad and Muhammadanism, 1874, p. 21)
and can if you wish spend many a post discussing and explaining the various passages you have all shown us.
Please do
But as I said in my previous post, and this is something we all need to agree on.. God says this is His Word, not part of it, and not just the parts that Muslims or even Christians say are HIS word.. God Himself declares it IS His word and HE HIMSELF WILL accomplish with it, the purpose it was spoken.
Indeed, God's word didn't change, but the NT is not the word of God at all. The case maybe different in the OT.
it IS the subject of this discussion
See, since the bible is accurate why don't you then answer what has been claimed?
Hi Believer:
Where did you get that from? An Islamic site?
No, ask carol she knows since she studied it.
So the three Gospels disagree on two of the people that Peter denied Jesus to which is very irrelevant.
So far, every claimed contradiction enlisted you called it irrelevant.....then how is the bible accurate? You said the bible is accurate...well it has been shown IT'S NOT regarding the points enlisted above.
It's accurate on what's important
LOL... then change the title of this thread to :
THE BIBLE IS ACCURATE ON WHAT IS IMPORTANT
Now the Quran isn't very accurate for a very good reason.
It "borrows" things from various sources.
Whoever wrote it had copies of the Infancy Gospels and the Talmud in addition to the Bible.
I wonder why you change the subject.
