Can we understand the message in quran just by reading it? It seems there are contradictions like whether God's day is equal to 10,000 years of human or 50,000 years

1 day =1,000 years:
22:47 "Yet they ask thee to hasten on the Punishment! But Allah will not fail in His Promise. Verily a Day in the sight of thy Lord is like a thousand years of your reckoning."

and

32:5 "He rules (all) affairs from the heavens to the earth: in the end will (all affairs) go up to Him, on a Day, the space whereof will be (as) a thousand years of your reckoning."

but then, 1 day = 50,000 years:
70:4 "The angels and the spirit ascend unto him in a Day the measure whereof is (as) fifty thousand years."

The excuse they use to reconcile this contradiction goes something like this:
"Learn Arabic before you talk!" Because they'll say by "day" it really means "time period"

No it's not clear at all,it accepts many explainations to the same verse,besides,there is the proplem of what is called NASIKH & MANSOUKH,manifested in verses that contadict,scholars say 62% of the Quran verses are from this category.

i'm sorry yet ought to you supply the best verse the place the Quran says there is in basic terms one foodstuff in hell then provides 3 thoughts of which the tormented will consume? i'm undecided what you're touching on. Then the explanation why Iblis (the Jinn in question) develop into banished from Hell develop into with the aid of fact he develop into too proud and consequently acted arrogantly. And conceitedness is a sin, and whilst somebody commits a sin the organic mild, the mild of God is long gone and there is not something yet darkness. what's the absence of sunshine suggested as? Darkness. what's the absence of excellent suggested as? Evil. what's the absence of distinctive function suggested as? Sin. Heaven is a place of distinctive function and lightweight. whilst Iblis displayed his conceitedness and refused to prostate till now Adam he committed a sin, meaning his mild develop into long gone and develop into replaced with darkness. consequently, God grew to become him remote from Heaven with the aid of fact Heaven is a place freed from sin and of darkness. It in basic terms is smart that God might turn Iblis away style Heaven whilst permitting him to stay might mean letting darkness stay in Heaven. If God permit Iblis stay in Heaven whilst he introduced darkness with him then Heaven does not be Heaven. Heaven is a place the place no darkness can enter, it rather is a place of distinctive function and of sunshine. It thoroughly defeats the purpose of Heaven if darkness can enter it. does not Heaven only be yet another earth then? As on your actual question i might want to ask what does the Hadith being compiled 2 hundred years after Muhammed ought to do with the Quran? The Quran is clean in its meaning. some human beings only ensue to take the metaphors in the Quran heavily only as some human beings have taken the metaphors in the Bible heavily. same is the case with the different revealed e book. The metaphors used in the e book are taken heavily by utilising some. with the aid of fact of this they could not understand the meaning or be perplexed on the subject of the meaning. with the aid of fact of this i ought to assert all revealed books are clean of their meaning, some understand that meaning at the same time as others do not and then refuse to cut up from their fake understandings.

so clear that there's no miswriting in it. all the words in it comes from Allah(so it's all speak of truthness) and it is sent to the Prophet Muhammad. so, Quran is a very clear book.

Time of Allah is incomparable to earthly time
The Qur’an says in two verses, (22:47 and 32:5), that the measure of one day in the sight of Allah is equal to 1,000 years of our reckoning. In another verse (70:4) it says that the measure of one day in the sight of Allah is equal to 50,000 years of our reckoning.

These verses generally mean that the time of Allah (swt) is incomparable to the earthly time. The examples given are of one thousand years and fifty thousand years of the earthly time. In other words thousands of years or a very, very long time of the earth a day in the sight of Allah is equal to:

Yaum also means Period
The Arabic word used in all these three verses is yaum, which, besides meaning a day also means a long period, or an epoch. If you translate the word yaum correctly as ‘period’ there will be no confusion.

The verse from Surah Hajj reads as:
"Yet they ask thee to hasten on the Punishment! but Allah will not fail in His promise. Verily a Day in the sight of thy Lord is like a thousand years of your reckoning".

[Al-Qur’an 22:47]

When the unbelievers asked to hasten the punishment the Qur’an says Allah will not fail in His promise. Verily a period in the sight of Allah is like a thousand years of your reckoning.

The verse from Surah Al-Sajdah says:
"He rules (all) affairs from the heavens to the earth: in the end will (all affairs) go up? To Him, on a Day, the space whereof will be (as) a thousand years of your reckoning".

[Al-Qur’an 32:5]

This verse indicates that a period required for all the affairs to go up to Allah (swt), is a thousand years of our reckoning.

A verse from Surah Al-Maarij says:
"The angels and the spirit ascend unto Him in a Day the measure whereof is (as) fifty thousand years".
[Al-Qur’an 70:4]

This verse means that the period required for angels and the spirits to ascend unto Allah (swt) is fifty thousand years.

The period for two different acts need not be the same. For example the period required for me to travel to destination ‘A’ say Vashi is one hour and the period required for me to travel to destination ‘B’ i.e. Kashmir is 50 hours. This does not indicate that I am making two contradictory statements.
Thus the verses of the Qur’an not only do not contradict each other, they are also in perfect harmony with established modern scientific facts.

the qu'ran is full of wrong information and contradictions, just like every piece of religious work. the qur'an generally is not interpreted without being related to hadith..however in the qu'ran it says there are no other "hadith" that a muslim needs..it is all right there in the quran.

so it's full of bullshit, does this really surprise anyone?
