Is this a true passage from the Koran?

Question

Koran (9:11 ) - For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle. Th e wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo, while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced; for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah; and there was peace.

(Note the verse number!)

This has been circulating on the net. Is it a real passage? Just curious.

sunshine can you read? I didnt make this up, someone sent it to me . I didnt just read it and believe it blindly. That is why I asked the question. So i didnt pass on a lie.

thank you to everyone who responded. I am choosing the first response that includes the correct passage as the best answer. I appreciate your efforts. Thank you.

Answer 1

no it's a hoax.

9:11 But (even so), if they repent, establish regular prayers, and practise regular charity,- they are your brethren in Faith: (thus) do We explain the Signs in detail, for those who understand.

Answer 2

No, it was a hoax devised after 9/11 - notice the verse "9:11". In my copy of the Qur'an, verse 9:11 says "But if they repent and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate, then they are your brethren in faith; and We make the communicationsclear for a people who know." Quite different from the Eagle cleansing the lands of Allah.

Answer 3

In order not 2 B misunderstood for another Islam basher (if U R not) just say: someone passed on this passage 4 me, it is true?
We will say: no it is not. The "eagle" or "son of Arabia" has never been mentioned in the Quran.

Answer 4

No, the date september eleventh 2001 (9/11/01) exchange into chosen after the Quran verse: 9:111 9:11 yet while they repent and set up worship and pay the damaging-due, then are they your brethren in faith. We factor Our revelations for a people who've information. 9:111 Lo! Allah hath bought from the believers their lives and their wealth simply by fact the backyard would be theirs: they shall combat in the way of Allah and shall slay and be slain. that's a promise that's binding on Him in the Torah and the Gospel and the Qur'an. Who fulfilleth His covenant greater valuable than Allah ? have a good time then on your good deal that ye have made, for that's the ideal triumph.

Answer 5

The Truth ... this is a hoax.

The quote is not from anywhere in the Koran (or Quran).
Chapter 9 verse 11 actually says "But if they repent and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate, they are your brethren in faith; and we make the communications clear for a people who know." (M. H. Shakir translation)

Answer 6

I don't know if it is a verse from quran or not . but the eagle and the twin eagles have been banners for many civilizations thru out history . even the oldest civilizations from in iraq have had the banner of twin eagles. even the romans had it from which we inherited it .
seems like the lion and the eagle were the two favorite creatures of ancient leaders.

Answer 7

9:11 But (even so), if they repent, establish regular prayers, and practice regular charity,- they are your brethren in Faith: (thus) do We explain the Signs in detail, for those who understand.
