Would u like to know the differences between the bible and the koran?

Question

Well, this is very important to explain the difference between the Quran and the Bible. As I said, I am holding in my hand the Quran, and by the way, there are different English translations of the Quran. And sometimes, the Muslims will say, especially the clerics, "You corrupted your Bible. Go and see, authorized version, New King James, International Versions, New Standard Bible, look, you play in the Quran." I would like to tell the Muslims, there are many different translations of the Quran. And you will see that Youssif Ali has a translation, Marmadok booklet has another translation, and so many, this is Dr. Mohammed Mouhssin Khab, and Dr. Mohammed Taki El Din El Hilali, another translation. And I want to tell you that there are differences in the translation of the Quran between one and the other. So, don't ever criticize the translation. We have to emphasize that we trust the original Bible. We don't trust translation. We have the original Bible, and because of that, we are not afraid of any criticism.
Now, let me talk a little about the Quran. Here, in the Quran, the Quran consist of 114 surat. And it starts with the Fatiha the opening surat, and in that opening surat, there is something very interesting. You know, it is a prayer, that the Muslims recite in each of the five daily prayers assigned to the Muslims. A verse in this opening prayer says, "Guide us to the straight way." I will repeat, "Guide us to the straight way." If we are already in the straight way, how could we pray 'guide us in the straight way'? If I am in the right street, I would not say, "Please, guide me to the right street." I am already there. But the Muslims are praying every day, seventeen times, "Guide us to the straight way." What does that mean? It's not yet in the straight way. You know why? Because Jesus Christ is the only way. He said, "I am the way." He didn't say, "I am a way." He said, "I am THE way, the truth, and the life. No man comes to the father, but by me." I wish that every Muslim will know the straight way, who is Jesus Christ. "I am the way, the truth, and the life."
Then we go, and we'll see something of interest in the Quran. And that is the name of the surat in the Quran. As I said, when they organize the Quran in the days of Ottoman the Kalif, they put the longest surat in the beginning, and the shortest surat in the end. It is not categorial, no, it's not historical, no, it's just this way. It goes that way. They started with the long surahs, and they ended with the shortest surat. That is what we see in the Quran. And another thing that is of interest, when you read the Quran, you will find that many of the surahs of the Quran were named after animals, after incense, after rocks, after so many things. And I will name some of these surat: in the second surat, surat number two is named 'the cow,' surat (Albakarah) in Arabic. And then, surat number six 'the catle (Alinaam) in Arabic. And then surat number 16, (Alnahel) 'the bee'. And then surat number 27, (Alnamel) 'the ant.' Then surat 52 (Altawr) that is 'Mount Sinai.' And in the end, surat 57 (Alhadid) 'the iron.' Then surat 95 (Alteen) 'the fig.' And then surat 105, (Alfeel) 'the elephant.' And then surat 72, 'the demon' (Algin).
And then you read the Quran, and when you read it, and you ask yourself, is it reasonable that the God of heaven will name the books, or the chapters of his books, and as I mentioned, the Quran is 114 surat, the surat is a chapter. Will he name a chapters of his books according to the cow, and the ant, and the bee, and the elephant? What are these things?
And when you come to the Bible, you see the book of Genesis, Exodus, Numbers. Then you come to names like Ruth, Esther. You come to Samuel, 2 Samuel. When you come to the New Testament, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John. But the elephant, iron, fig? I really cannot understand. I cannot say that these indicate that this book is really the book of God.
Then I would say that the Quran is not self-interpreted. This is different from the Bible. In surat Abasa, surat 80, we read this word, and again, I read from the Quran because I like always to refer to the original. And it is here, "he frowned and turned away because it came to him the blind man." We'll now stop. Who frowned? Who is that blind man? No answer! The Quran will not give you an answer. You have to go to the biography of Mohammed, by Ibn Hisham, to really know who frowned. Prophet Mohammed frowned. Why did he frowned? Because he was talking to some of the rich people of Kuraish, and then this blind man came. Who was that blind man? Again, in the biography, not in the Quran. And that is Ibn Maktoob, and he came, and interrupted Mohammed, and Mohammed frowned. You cannot understand it then, without going to the biography of Mohammed. That is contrary to the Bible. You cannot understand the book of Hebrews unless you read the book of Leviticus. You cannot understand the book of Revelations unless you read the book of Genesis. There is a big difference. The Bible is self-interpreted. You take the Bible as a whole, you read it as a whole, you don't need any biography outside the Bible to understand the Bible. It is not self-interpreted.
Then I go and I say here, that the Quran, also, contradicts in many, many ways what God said, in marriage and divorce, in law. I will talk about that later. In dealing with wife, when the Quran permits the Muslim to beat his wife. Banish her from bed. Don't have sex with her, because this is punishment. And then, you come to the Bible, and you see a totally different concept and command.
And then we go to the names of God in the Quran. You'll not find in the Quran the name of God as 'father'. And you cannot find in the Quran the name of God as 'love'. God the Father, God is love, there are not mentioned in the Quran. You know why? Because if we admit that God is the eternal Father, He must have an eternal son, and that means that we have to profess and declare that Jesus is the eternal Son of God.
Number two, if we declare that God is love, we have to declare also that, "God gave his only begotten son, that whoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." This is why the Quran omits the name of God as Father, and the name of God as love. This are very clear differences between the Quran and the Bible.

The Quran: Surat AN-NISA (WOMEN) 4:34



YUSUFALI: Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, because Allah has given the one more (strength) than the other, and because they support them from their means. Therefore the righteous women are devoutly obedient, and guard in (the husband's) absence what Allah would have them guard. As to those women on whose part ye fear disloyalty and ill-conduct, admonish them (first), (Next), refuse to share their beds, (And last) beat them (lightly); but if they return to obedience, seek not against them Means (of annoyance): For Allah is Most High, great (above you all).
PICKTHAL: Men are in charge of women, because Allah hath made the one of them to excel the other, and because they spend of their property (for the support of women). So good women are the obedient, guarding in secret that which Allah hath guarded. As for those from whom ye fear rebellion, admonish them and banish them to beds apart, and scourge them. Then if they obey you, seek not a way against them. Lo! Allah is ever High, Exalted, Great.
SHAKIR: Men are the maintainers of women because Allah has made some of them to excel others and because they spend out of their property; the good women are therefore obedient, guarding the unseen as Allah has guarded; and (as to) those on whose part you fear desertion, admonish them, and leave them alone in the sleeping-places and beat them; then if they obey you, do not seek a way against them; surely Allah is High, Great.

THE BIG SPACES WERE SUPPOSED TO SHOW THE PASSAGES IN ARABIC

Answer 1

Your knowledge of Mulsim ways is impressive, God bless your ministry, I am glad to see reason and not ranting. They are children of Abraham like we are, but are on the wrong path as you have said. They need to meet the loving God Yahweh, and know Jesus Christ as Lord rather than prophet.

Answer 2

so whats your point? a lot of different people translate koran and they use different words but every koran in arabic is the same its obvious that they would use different word choices because other wise they would be plagirizing........ and about the right path...tell me how many christains go to church every sunday? let me see i am in a school with about 3000 kids and no one in any of my classes goes to church..now would you say that they are on the right path? because obviosly they are christains (because they say they are) but since they dont go to church and most dont know what trinity is and most have not even read the bible so they are not on the right path. 2nd we say the prayer because no one is perfect...all we can hope for is that we can be as near as possible......so we pray that god keeps us on the right path..... 3rd about the quran's chapters name....god made every thing nothing is small or big every thing on earth has its purpose so why is that unappropriate that names of the chapters are animal names.......and as your translitions at the bottom...... dude! read them....can't you see they mean the same thing!!! in the bible there is so much difference between old testment and the new testement......besides they are just a bunch of stories! they were written after Jesus was taken AWAY!!! jesus did not even write the bible....

Answer 3

Nice information.

The biggest difference is that the Koran denies Jesus Christ the Son of God, and Lamb of God. So therefor it prevents people from coming to God's Truth and Salvation.

Answer 4

You are still missing something --- are the two books telling the same stories or not? Why have the Christians and Muslams fought with each other for so many years beside the oil and land resources?

Answer 5

you missed something

The Koran reads more like the Book of Mormon than the Bible.

Answer 6

How about the Bible is true in it's original transcriptions and the Koran is not in any of it's transcriptions.

Answer 7

This is kinda long so i didnt read it. But God Bless. Jesus Saves!!!!!!!!

Answer 8

You are sermonizing & that's against the YA rules.

If you want to preach go to college, get a degree in theology, get a yourself a church and then preach away.
