Anyone knows any true contradictions in the Quran?

Answer 1

Besides Muhammad himself? He was supposed to be a prophet of God but did nothing but sin. And he's supposed to come after a sinless Jesus. How about allah claiming to be God but does not have a Son? How about claiming the Torah and Bible are corrupted but then use the Torah and Bible to try and predict Muhammad and justify the very existence of the quran? The basis for the quran is contradictions, deceits and falsehoods.

May God Bless you.

Answer 2

Contradictions? Lain found some on the Wired. You wanna see?


Sura 29:46 "And dispute ye not with the People of the Book, but say, "We believe in the revelation which has come down to us and in that which came down to you; Our Allah and your Allah is one;" A friendly way of trying to say Jews and Christians believe in the same god as Arabs

Suras 6:34, 6:115, 10:64 and 50:28,29 clearly says to Muslims, "No change can there be in the words of Allah" and that Allah cannot alter (or abrogate) his words." This would mean that everything from the Israeli uprising to the Commandments like "Thou shall not kill." were all the work of Allah. Sounds good...... but what about Jesus? There's some explanation for this too, and I forget exactly how it goes. But basically the Qu'ran is still trying to promote friendship and unity between all 3 "peoples of the book," right?

[Shakir 5:51] O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people.
Wait a second, so now Allah ISN'T the Judeo-Christian God after all! Or is he?

[Yusufali 9:29] Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.
Now I don't even really have to try.... I'll just let you read the rest

Volume 9, Book 89, Number 271:
Narrated Abu Musa:
A man embraced Islam and then reverted back to Judaism. Mu'adh bin Jabal came and saw the man with Abu Musa. Mu'adh asked, "What is wrong with this (man)?" Abu Musa replied, "He embraced Islam and then reverted back to Judaism." Mu'adh said, "I will not sit down unless you kill him (as it is) the verdict of Allah and His Apostle

Volume 4, Book 52, Number 177:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Apostle said, "The Hour will not be established until you fight with the Jews, and the stone behind which a Jew will be hiding will say. "O Muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me, so kill him."

Somehow this is still supposed to be the God of Moses, Jesus, and everyone else from the old book. Who taught us not to kill and to try and love each other.........

If I'm "taking this the wrong way," and some quote here needs a further explanation or an excuse, please enlighten LaiN.

Answer 3

Contradictions with itself or with science? There are plenty of both...

Criticism of the science in the Qur'an
Critics point to a statement the Qur'an makes regarding the setting of the sun (18:86), which they take to mean that the sun sets in an actual body of water. They believe the verse is couched in such a way that it was meant to be taken literally instead of figuratively, which would imply a belief in a flat instead of a round Earth. Modern-day Muslims interpret this verse differently, saying that this part of the Qur'an is describing the man Dhul-Qarnain's point of view, and is indeed to be taken as a figurative description of what he saw - that the sun appeared to be setting into the sea, but was not actually doing so.

In a similar vein, critics point to verses they think imply that the moon gives off light instead of reflecting it from the sun, (25:61, 10:5, 71:15-16) and are skeptical of Muslim statements that the verses should be taken to mean reflective light only. Some critics also think that the Qur'an says that mountains were created to prevent earthquakes, (16:15, 21:31), a view which is incompatible with modern geology. Another criticism of the Qur'an involves verses 86:5-7. These verses are interpreted by critics and some Muslims to mean that sperm comes from the lower back. This contradicts the scientific fact that semen is produced by the testicles, prostate gland, and seminal vesicles, none of which are between the backbone and the ribs. Critics note that Hippocrates, whose writings were widely available in the pre-Islamic Middle East, had taught that semen passes from the kidneys via the testicles into the penis, and believe that this is a plausible source for the idea in this verse. Muslim apologist Maurice Bucaille states that these verses are "hardly comprehensible" and finds his own translations of them using meanings not found in dictionaries.

Quranic verses 3:59, 35:11, 96:2, 20:55, 6:1, 24:45, 15:26, 7:11, and 19:67 are all related to the origin of mankind. Some critics of Islam and some Muslims state that the Qur'an and modern evolutionary theory are not compatible. This has led to a contribution by Muslims to the creation vs. evolution debate. Some Muslims have pointed to certain Qur'anic verses that they think are in fact compatible with evolutionary science, but others think that only creationism is supported by the Qur'an and the hadith.

Ahmad Dallal, Professor of Arabic and Islamic Studies at Georgetown University, writes that many modern Muslims believe that the Qur'an does make scientific statements, however many classical Muslim commentators and scientists, notably al-Biruni, assigned to the Qur'an a separate and autonomous realm of its own and held that the Qur'an "does not interfere in the business of science nor does it infringe on the realm of science." These medieval scholars argued for the possibility of multiple scientific explanation of the natural phenomena, and refused to subordinate the Qur'an to an ever-changing science.

Contradictions in the Qur'an
Critics believe that there are many mutually contradictory passages in the Qur'an. Examples are of verses that supposedly conflict regarding the length of Allah's day (22:47 and 32:5 vs. 70:4), on whether or not all Jews and Christians will go to hell (3:85 and 5:72 vs. 2:62 and 5:69), [30] and on how disbelievers should be treated (2:256, 18:29, and 109:6 vs. 3:32, 18:29, 3:28, and others). The Skeptic's Annotated Qur'an asserts that there are contradictions in the Qur'an related to how many angels spoke to Mary (19:16-19, vs. 3:42,and 3:45), whether the Pharaoh was drowned or saved (17:102-103, 28:40, 43:55 vs. 10:90-92), whether Muhammad asks for money (2:195, 8:41, 9:103, etc. vs. 12:104, 36:21, 42:23, etc.), whether heaven or earth came first (79:27-30 vs. 2:29, 41:9-12), whether Allah will forgive everything (4:110, 39:153 vs. 4:48, 4:116, 4:137, etc.), the number of angels that fought for Muhammad (3:124, 3:126 vs. 8:9-10), whether everyone is free to believe in what he or she wishes (2:256, 109:6 vs. 3:85, 3:28, 5:51), and whether or not Allah is merciful (1:1-3, 2:37, 2:128 vs. 2:7, 2:17, 4:56)

Answer 4

The Koran writes that Jesus isn't the Son of God and that He didn't shed His blood for the remission of our sins and that He didn't raise from the dead.

This is the opposite of what the Messianic prophecies of the Old Testament and the New Testament teach about Christ and the foundation of His Church.

Answer 5

There are no Contradictions in the Qur'aan with science or anything else. If you dont beleive me check out http://www.speed-light.info/angels_speed_of_light.htm
but be warned it a long read.

I can not say the same about the bible as in (Titus 1:12-14) it states "Even one of their own Prophets has said, "Cretans are always liars, evil brutes, lazy gluttons." This testimony is true. Therefore, rebuke them sharply, so that they will be sound in the faith and will pay no attention to Jewish myths or to the commands of those who reject the truth"
This is a paradox becauses it states "ONE OF THEIR OWN PROPHETS SAID (in other words the prophet is a Cretan.) "Cretans are ALWAYS LIARS, evil brutes, lazy gluttons"... "
So if the Cretans arew ALWAYS LIARS and the Prophet WAS "ONE OF THEIR OWN" doesnt it mean that the prophet is lying? but if he is lying it means that the cretans are NEVERL LIARS, but that means that he is not lying... see the paradox?

Answer 6

There are things that look like contradictions because they confuse the casual reader.

But in reality theyre not fundamental contradictions like that existing in the Bible: God is one but Hes three.

Answer 7

there r none.

Neither with itself, neither with science.
Qur'an described long time ago the process of embryo formation, the fact that water is the base of life anywhere....etc..

If anyone THINKS that there r contradictions, let him tell me what contradiction he thinks he has

Mr 11: u r interpreting stuff by urself, 4 example:who told u that mountains are not stabilizing the earth?"proved by modern geology"?that's ur best prove?LOLLLLLL

Answer 8

It trully contridicts itself with science.

Answer 9

Nope.

Answer 10

'The Prophet of Doom'.
