No kidding, I would join Islam, for real, If I "found the sun in a muddy spring" like Zul qarnain did in the Quran.
The Quran is the only religious book to take the false belief of a thosand years ago (that sun setting in distance was actually setting into the earth itself) and incorporate it into its religious book.
Here it is:
Quran 18:86 “(Zul-qarnain TRAVELLED till) when he reached the setting of the sun, he FOUND IT set IN A SPRING of murky water: NEAR IT (sun in spring) he found a People” http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran/018.qmt.html#018.086
All the best transaltors use the exact same key words...'FOUND it set IN'. Thats undeniable incontrovertable error. If this is not an error, then there are no errors. No literary error could be more plain that this. You cannot show me an error more complet or certain.
Zul Qarnain didnt simply "see" the sun in a muddy spring, noooo....he FOUND it. Where did he find it? Get this, he found it IN...right INNNN the muddy spring.

I'd become a Muslim just for the sheer fact that Muslims believe in One God and that Muhammad is a Messenger of God.

Good Question!
When we say the terms 'sun-rise' and 'sun-set'. DOES THE SUN ACTUALLY 'RISE' OR 'SET'???
No, its just human terms that are said by us (humans) to convey the point to another Human.
Here you are right and you quoted << setting of the sun, he FOUND IT >>
Now is it NOT 'he FOUND it' . DOes it NOT indicate zul Qarnain's perception???
And therefore ALLAH said, it was Zul Qarnain's perception that the sun was setting in a spring of murky water. It does NOT mean that Almighty GOD also believes the same way as Zul Qarnain...

Where is the verse where monkies fly out of the Man from Utopia's bombay doors?
That would make me a believer.
