Fake Scholars and posers

This maybe irrelevant. Look at what a so called scholar of Islam/Arabic language has done.

He thinks that the Quran challenges you to make a chapter or a verse that resembles the Quran in order to prove its miraculous nature and has done a chapter in Arabic. Now he has taken upon himself to write a chapter just like the Quran in order to prove it wrong.

If you know a bit of classical Arabic you would see that this is the epitome of an embarrassment for scholarship. Its so shameful. Lol. He has even simply transliterated the English word Whiskey into Arabic letters. Is that Quranic language?

This does not even deserve a scholarly response. Neither does it deserve a laymans response. For someone who claims to be a Muslim, while in his videos he says "when I was a Muslim" which means he no longer is a Muslim, a supposed scholar of the language, his pronunciation is as bad as it can get. I hate doing this but this has to be posted here for the comical nature to be understood. Laughable.

The Qur'an challenges others to produce a verse or sura like it - so this is not blasphemy. I'm simply responding to the challenge and having a go. I am aching to print his name but well, I shall not.

Seems someone is upset because the unnamed scholar nailed it.
Now we all know the Koran is false.

I do have to agree that this is pretty pathetic, not that the Qur'an is much better, but... still...
Perhaps the "crates of whiskey" part is simply to show that the "challenge" sura is a farce.

Whether the Quran is a miracle or not is a matter for Muslim belief. But, that said, this to me is dumb. I've sometimes mangled Shakespeare for amusement but that has nothing to do with Shakespeare's literary genius.

To smite, or not to smite, that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to inflict
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune on others,
Or to nuke a Sea of troubles,
And by exploding end them: to slay, to murder
some more; and by a slaying, to say we end
the heart-ache, and the thousand unnatural aftershocks that H-bombs are heir to? '

I want to see a Muslim comment on Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven" or Jeff Wayne's "War of the Worlds" soundtrack. Or, for that matter, the Tao Te Ching.

If the Qur'an is supposedly demonstrated of divine origin by virtue of its style and contents, what are we to conclude of those wildly superior works?

Yes.


What have you got against the completely incompetent ignorant?
One wonders why you think yourself so much better than them.

Because I read the book. Its not about being better, it is about being better informed.

Alright. Explain to me why the so called scholar nailed it..

Let me give one example. If you are to replicate a chapter of the Quran I believe you absolutely can but then the language has to be the same, classical Arabic, not google translate.

He has translated the word whiskey as a transliterated arabic word "Whiskey". Do you understand? That is what google translate returns for words that cannot be translated. That is disingenuous, fake scholarship.

And that is only one.

I want to see a Muslim comment on Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven" or Jeff Wayne's "War of the Worlds" soundtrack. Or, for that matter, the Tao Te Ching.

If the Qur'an is supposedly demonstrated of divine origin by virtue of its style and contents, what are we to conclude of those wildly superior works?

With all due respect, it is not if the Quran is divine or not. That is another whole subject and you would know it better.

This is about pretending to be scholars which I think is a trend. Everyone wants to pretend to be a scholar of the Arabic language, bible, religion, theology etc. This is the work of layman and a false effort.

I know that its also something that doesnt pose a purpose but lying is worse.

I do sympathize with you on this topic, @firedragon as it is obviously not a serious contender.
I'm still stuck on why anyone would want to create a passage as dreary as the Qur'an.

Lol. YmirGF. You cant help being sarcastic can you??

And are you done with your gaming life? Hell, apologies for not remembering correctly but your name or YmirGF has something to do with your old gaming name or something right?

Because I read the book. Its not about being better, it is about being better informed.

Alright. Explain to me why the so called scholar nailed it..

Let me give one example. If you are to replicate a chapter of the Quran I believe you absolutely can but then the language has to be the same, classical Arabic, not google translate.

He has translated the word whiskey as a transliterated arabic word "Whiskey". Do you understand? That is what google translate returns for words that cannot be translated. That is disingenuous, fake scholarship.

And that is only one.
Interesting that you ask a subjective question which requires a subjective answer then get upset when the subjective answer is not what you want to hear.
