Answering Questions Through The Holy Qur'an: How the Qur’an corrects Judaism?

How the Qur’an corrects Judaism?

5:18 And the Jews and the Christians said "We are the children of Allah and His beloved." Say, "Then why does He punish you for your sins?" Nay, you are human beings from among those He created. He forgives whom He wills and punishes whom He wills. And for Allah is the dominion of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them, and to Him is the final return.

(The concept “sons of God” in the Hebrew Bible is wrong. Mankind is not children of God, but God’s creation. According to Verse 112:3, “He neither begets nor is begotten”)(According to Verse 9:30, the concept “son of God” is not from God, but from those who disbelieved before. “They imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before” (9:30))(See the link below “Is the Bible corrupted?”)(Allah knows best)

62:5 The likeness of those who were entrusted with the Torah then they did not bore it, is like the donkey who carries books. Wretched is the example of the people who deny the Signs of Allah. And Allah does not guide the wrongdoing people.

(Men is entrusted with the scripture (the Torah), but if they do not follow it, they would be like an animal having a book, the animal is not able to understand or read a book, so those who do not follow the Scripture do likewise)(Allah knows best)

3:93 All food was lawful for the Children of Israel except what Israel made unlawful to himself before the Torah was revealed. Say, "So bring the Torah and recite it, if you are truthful." 3:94 Then whoever fabricates a lie about Allah after that, then those are the wrongdoers.

(The Children of Israel fabricated lies after the Torah was revealed (e.g., in regard to the Messiah, and the “promised land”, and they deny the existence of Hell, etc.))(Allah knows best)

2:111 And they said, "None will enter Paradise except one who is a Jew or a Christian." That is their wishful thinking. Say, "Bring your proof if you are truthful."

2:120 And the Jews and the Christians will never be pleased with you until you follow their religion. Say, "Indeed, the Guidance of Allah is the Guidance." And if you follow their desires after what has come to you of the knowledge, you will have neither any protector from Allah nor any helper.

(According to this Verse, there are Jews how do not follow the correct religion anymore, but they follow their desires, instead of obeying God)(Allah knows best)

4:157 And for their saying, "Indeed, we have killed the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah." And they did not kill him nor did they crucify him; but it was made to appear so to them. And indeed, those who differ in it are surely in doubt about it. They have no knowledge of it except the following of assumption. And certainly they did not kill him. … 4:159 And there is none from the People of the Book but must believe in it/him before his death. And on the Day of Resurrection he will be a witness against them.

(According to Verse 4:157, the Jews, at that time, knew that Jesus was the Messiah. This is implicitly supported by the Gospel, in John 3:1-2, “now there was a Pharisee, a man named Nicodemus who was a member of the Jewish ruling council. He came to Jesus at night and said, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the signs you are doing if God were not with him.”)(The disciples were also among the Children of Israel and believed, and became Muslims (aka “Submitted (to God)”)(3:52), so it is a fact that the Children of Israel acknowledged that Jesus was the Messiah. E.g. Mark 8:29 says, “he asked. “Who do you say I am?” Peter answered, “you are the Messiah.”)(The Jews do not believe today that Jesus is the Messiah because they falsely attributed things which they think that Jesus did not fulfill, while Jesus came to them with clear evidences (2:87, 5:110, 61:6), which proves that he is the Messiah)(According to the site “jewfaq”, the messianic concept comes from Isaiah 2, 11, 42, 59:20, Jeremiah 23, 30, 33, 48:47, 49:39, Ezekiel 38:16, Hosea 3:4-5, Micah 4, Zephaniah 3:9, Zechariah 14:9 and Daniel 10:14, but the specific expression “the Messiah” does not occur in the Tanakh (Torah, Nevi’im and Ketuvim), so the Jews falsely attributed specific events to the coming of a “Messiah”, other than Jesus (e.g. the return of Jews to their homeland and the rebuilding of the Temple, etc.). And since Jews believe that none of these events occurred during the time of Jesus (nor have they occurred afterwards), he was not the Messiah. But, considering the context, for example, Ezekiel 38:21 mentions the word “sword”, and Ezekiel 38:15 mentions the words “riding on horses” (instead of “cars” or “airplanes”), so it suggests that the stories in Ezekiel refer to something that already happened, or to the past, not to a future event, so the Jews are wrongly attributing events to the coming of a “Messiah”, other than Jesus. Likewise, Isaiah 30:16 speaks about riding horses, and there is no mention of the word “Messiah”, but someone is called “branch” in Isaiah 11:1-9. Jeremiah also used the name “branch” in Jer. 23:5-8, but there is no mention of the word “Messiah”)(The Jews say that the Messiah must be a human being, so they also use the Christian belief that he was God as an excuse to reject him as the Messiah, but Jesus never claimed divinity. In fact the Jews invented that he claimed divinity in order to kill him, and Christians made such a lie the foundation of their religion)(See the article below: “Is Jesus God and/or the son of God?”)(Allah knows best)

3:79 It is not for any human to whom Allah has given the Book, and the wisdom, and Prophethood to say to the people, "Be my worshipers besides Allah,” but "Be worshipers of the Lord because you have been teaching the Book and you have been studying." 3:80 And he will not order you to take the Angels, and the Prophets as lords. Would he order you to disbelief after you (have become) Muslims? 3:81 And when Allah took the covenant of the Prophets, "Certainly, whatever I have given you of the Book and the wisdom, then there comes to you a Messenger confirming that which is with you, you must believe in him and you must help him." He said, "Do you affirm and take on that (condition) My Covenant?” They said, "We affirm." He said, "Then bear witness, and I (am) with you among the witnesses."

(Verse 3:81 says, “when Allah took the covenant of the Prophets, "Certainly, whatever I have given you of the Book and the wisdom, then there comes to you a Messenger confirming that which is with you, you must believe in him and you must help him.")(Jesus and Muhammad confirmed that which is with them (10:37, 5:46), and came with evidences, so Jews are required to believe in Jesus and Muhammad)(Allah knows best)

9:31 They have taken their rabbis and their monks and the Messiah, son of Mary, as Lords besides Allah. And they were not commanded except to worship One God. There is no god except Him. Glory be to Him from what they associate.

(You have to “obey the Messenger” (2:285, 24:47, 26:125, 5:92, 4:64, 64:12). You don’t have to obey or take the rabbis as lords (9:31))(Obeying the devils implies polytheism (6:121))(Allah knows best)

5:70 Certainly We took a Covenant from the Children of Israel and We sent to them Messengers. Whenever any Messenger came to them with what their souls did not desire, a group they denied and a group they kill.

5:32 From that time, We ordained on the Children of Israel that whoever kills a soul other than for a soul or for spreading corruption in the earth, then it is as if he has killed the whole mankind, and whoever saves it then it is as if he has saved the whole mankind. And surely Our Messengers came to them with clear Signs, yet after that, indeed, many of them surely commit excesses in the earth.

2:84 And when We took your covenant, "Do not shed your blood and nor evict yourselves from your homes," then you ratified while you were witnessing.

(In Islam (Submission (to God)), you cannot evict anyone from their home, so the Jews are the ones who make trouble in Palestine and make God an excuse to evict Palestinians from their homes. The Prophets were not Jews, but they were Muslims (submitted (to God))(Note: “Jew” in the Qur’an refers to their religion, while “Children of Israel” establish their lineage)(See the article below ”Does the Qur'an say that Palestine/Israel belongs to the Muslims or to the Jews?”) (Allah knows best)

2:190 And fight in the way of Allah those who fight you, and do not transgress. Indeed, Allah does not like the transgressors.

(In Islam, fighting is in self-defense and against oppression. On the other hand, the world should be concerted that the Jewish Bible tells in 1 Samuel 15:3 about putting to death women, children, babies, cattle, etc; and in Ezekiel 9:5-6 there is killing of old men, women, mothers and children; while It is not about self-defense. As a result of their scripture, they use it as an excuse to kill and expel Palestinians from their homes. And if they were to gain dominance against Christians, they would kill Christians as well. Jews massacred Christians in the past (e.g. in AD 524 the Yemeni Jewish Himyar tribe, led by King Yusuf Dhu Nuwas, massacred more than 22,000 Christians). It was alleged that the Talmud contained slanderous references to Jesus and Mary, etc)(Paradoxically, the roots of Nazism seem to be the Jewish Bible, because Jews innovated unlawful killing. Historically, some Jews were Nazis, and voted Hitler, despite of Hitler’s speech; and some Jews are Nazis today (aka resemble Nazi ideas or behavior), by killing and expelling Palestinians from their homes)(Besides the killing of innocent people, mentioned in 1 Samuel 15:3 and Ezekiel 9:5-6, the Nazi persecution of the disabled also seems based on the Jewish Bible (Leviticus 21:18-21))(Allah knows best)

60:8 Allah does not forbid you from those who do not fight you in the religion and do not drive you out of your homes, that you deal kindly and justly with them. Indeed, Allah loves those who act justly.

2:224 And do not make Allah an excuse in your oaths that you do good, and be righteous and make peace between people. And Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing.

2:275 Those who consume interest cannot stand except as stands the one who is confounded by Satan with touch. That is because they say, "Trade is like interest." But Allah has permitted trade and has forbidden interest. So whoever has received an admonition from his Lord and desists may have what is past, and his case with Allah . But whoever returns - those are the companions of the Fire; they will abide eternally therein.

(There are many Jewish bankers. There is social harm produced by the banking system in non-Muslim countries; and they are supported by unjust man-made laws. God has forbidden interest. According to the Verse, those who consume interest are to abide eternally in the Fire)(Another point is that their racist and xenophobic religion makes them charging interest rates to non-Jews, while there is no charging of interest rates among themselves)(Allah knows best)

4:161 And for their taking of usury while certainly they were forbidden from it and for their consuming wealth of people wrongfully. And We have prepared for the disbelievers among them a painful punishment.

4:160 Then for the wrongdoing of those who were Jews, We made unlawful for them good things which had been lawful for them, and for their hindering many from the way of Allah.

(The law was more severe for those who did wrong (e.g. Jews), for example in the matter of Sabbath (16:124), or making unlawful for them good things which had been lawful for them (4:160). Verse 7:157 says about Muhammad, “he relieves them of their burden and the fetters which were upon them”, and Jesus announced them the coming of Muhammad, so Jews are required to follow the Qur’an, which is in fact the religion of Abraham)(See the articles below “Does the Qur'an replace the Bible?” and “Is Muhammad mentioned in the Bible?”)(Allah knows best)

6:146 And to those who are Jews We forbade every (animal) with claws, and of the cows and the sheep We forbade to them their fat except what carried their backs or the entrails or what is joined with the bone. That is their recompense for their rebellion. And indeed, We are surely truthful.

7:157 Those who follow the Messenger, the unlettered Prophet, whom they find written in what they have - the Torah and the Gospel. He commands them to the right and forbids them from the wrong, and he makes lawful for them the pure things and makes unlawful for them the impure things and he relieves them of their burden and the fetters which were upon them. So those who believe in him, and honor him, and help him and follow the light, which has been sent down with him, those are the successful ones."

4:19 O you who believe, it is not lawful for you to inherit women by force. And do not constraint them in order to take part of what you have given them unless they commit a clear immorality. And live with them in kindness. For if you dislike them - perhaps you dislike a thing and Allah has placed much good in it.

(In Judaism, according to Genesis 38:8, women must have relations with her husband’s brother, while in Islam women have no obligation or cannot be forced to have relations)(In Deuteronomy 22:28-29, if a man rapes a girl, he must marry her forever and can never divorce. So, this could rather punish the victim, and the rapist would go unpunished)(In Judaism, in Ecclesiasticus / Sirach 36:21, “a woman will accept any husband”; while the reality is that a woman is selective, so she does not accept any husband. The sentence in Ecclesiasticus is another way to oppress, force, and disrespect women in Judaism)(Allah knows best)

24:2 The adulteress/fornicatress and the adulterer/fornicator, flog each of them with hundred lashes. And (let) not withhold you pity for them concerning the religion of Allah, if you believe in Allah and the Last Day. And let a group of the believers witness their punishment.

(In Judaism, there is honor killing, the adulterers are “to be put to death” (Leviticus 20:10-11); and also anyone who curses their parents is to be put to death (Exodus 21:17, Leviticus 20:9); and a priest’s daughter must be burned to death if she defiles herself (Leviticus 21:9); and those who has sexual relations with an animal are to be put to death (Leviticus 20:15); “if a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads” (Leviticus 20:13); “Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men” (1 Corinthians 6:9); “Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable” (Leviticus 18:22))(There is no honor killing in Islam. In regard to homosexuals, one interpretation of Verse 4:15 is that they are not sentenced to death, so, “until death comes to them” indicates that they are confined forever, unless they repent and correct themselves in order to get a way out (4:16). In regard to adulterers or fornicators (male and female), they are not sentenced to death or stoning, but to lashes (24:2). And there is freedom of religion)(Allah knows best)

33:28 O Prophet, say to your wives, "If you desire the life of the world and its adornment, then come, I will provide for you and release you with a good release.

(There is no compulsion in the religion of Islam (2:256), nor are they killed but released (33:28))(According to the Bible, Jews must kill the apostates (Deuteronomy 13:6-9, 17:3-5; 2 Chronicles 15:13))(Allah knows best)

18:29 And say, "The truth is from your Lord, so whoever wills - let him believe and whoever wills - let him disbelieve." Indeed, We have prepared for the wrongdoers a Fire, its walls will surround them. And if they call for relief, they will be relieved with water like molten brass, which scalds the faces. Wretched is the drink, and evil is the resting place.

33:32 O wives of the Prophet, you are not like anyone among women. If you fear, then do not be soft in speech, lest he, in whose heart is a disease, should be moved with desire, but say an appropriate word. ... 33:34 And remember what is recited in your houses of the Verses of Allah and the wisdom. Indeed, Allah is All-Subtle, All-Aware.

(In Judaism, the Talmud says, “women are exempt from the study of the Torah”. So, the rabbis would be preventing women from salvation)(On the other hand, Muslim women are allowed to learn the Qur’an (33:34). It also implies to have knowledge in different fields (astronomy, biology, geology, etc.). So, it implies that women are allowed to receive education)(Allah knows best)

2:35 And We said, "O Adam, dwell you and your spouse in Paradise, and (you both) eat freely from wherever you (both) wish. But do not (you two) approach this tree, lest you (both) be of the wrongdoers." 2:36 Then Satan made (both of) them slip out of it, and he got (both of) them out from that in which they (both) were. And We said, "Go down (all of you), as enemies to one another; and on the earth, for you is a dwelling place and a provision for a period."

(Jews wrongly made a woman solely responsible for the original sin, so historically they made rules against women)(See the article below “Was a woman responsible for the “original sin”?”)(Allah knows best)

14:22 And Satan will say, when the matter has been decided, "Indeed, Allah promised you a promise of truth. And I promised you, but I betrayed you. But I had no any authority over you except that I invited you, and you responded to me. So do not blame me, but blame yourselves. I (can)not be your helper, nor (can) you be my helper. Indeed, I deny your association of me before. Indeed, the wrongdoers, for them is a painful punishment."

20:90 And verily Aaron had said to them before, "O my people, you are only being tested by it, and indeed, your Lord is the Most Gracious, so follow me and obey my order."

(Jews wrongly made Aaron responsible for the golden calf)(Allah knows best)

43:63 And when Jesus came with clear proofs, he said, "Verily, I have come to you with wisdom and to make clear to you some of that over which you differ. So fear Allah and obey me. 43:64 Indeed, Allah, He is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. This is a Straight Path."

(The Jews made people think that Jesus made himself equal with God in order to have an excuse to kill him (John 5:18), but Jesus did not make such a claim. Jesus said that he was a servant of God (19:30))(Allah knows best)

62:6 Say, "O you who are Jews, if you claim that you are allies of Allah , excluding the people, then wish for death, if you are truthful."

3:85 And whoever seeks other than Islam as religion - then never will it be accepted from him, and he, in the Hereafter, will be from the losers.

(Islam is an Arabic word meaning “submission (to God)”. That’s the religion preached by all Prophets. Islam is older than Judaism, because Muslims follow the religion of Abraham (E.g. The first House set up for mankind was that at Mecca. It was built by Abraham and Ishmael, and it was the standing place of Abraham (2:125-127), but the House did not exist before Abraham). Before Abraham, people also had Laws in order to submit (Islam). Jews differ in that which was more severe to them (4:160, 16:124), for their wrongdoing, and in what they forgot (5:13), and in following their desires (2:120). They have to follow the Qur’an in order to submit to God)(Jews and Christians are required to follow the Qur’an (5:19). Muhammad was sent to the whole mankind (7:158, 34:28, 3:96, 21:107, 6:19, 36:70), including Jews and Christians. And those who deny the verses of the Qur’an are disbelievers (2:91, 52:33-34, 46:10, 10:95-97, 23:38-39, 40:70))(Allah knows best)

3:64 Say, "O People of the Book, come to a word that is equitable between us and you - that we worship none except Allah, nor we associate any partners with Him and that we will not take others as lords besides Allah." Then if they turn away, then say, "Bear witness that we are Muslims."

3:95 Say, Allah has told the truth, then follow the religion of Abraham, upright; and he was not of the polytheists. 3:96 Indeed, the first House set up for mankind was that at Bakkah, blessed and a guidance for the worlds. 3:97 In it are clear signs, the standing place of Abraham. And whoever enters it - is safe. And to Allah upon the people is a pilgrimage to the House – for whoever is able to it a way. And whoever disbelieves - then indeed, Allah is free from need of the worlds.

(Bakkah (3:96) refers to the Kaaba and its surroundings, while Mecca is the name of the city in which the Kaaba and its surroundings are located)(This place of pilgrimage, for mankind, is confirmed in the Bible: Psalm 84:4-7 “Blessed are those who dwell in your house; they are ever praising you. Blessed are those whose strength is in you, whose hearts are set on pilgrimage. As they pass through the Valley of Baka, they make it a place of springs; the autumn rains also cover it with pools. They go from strength to strength, till each appears before God in Zion”)(Non-Muslims object that Zion is Jerusalem, as if pilgrimage were to Jerusalem in that verse, but Zion is not Jerusalem; it is confirmed by Isaiah 2:3, in which the two places are differentiated: “The law will go out from Zion, the word of the Lord from Jerusalem”. In that sense, the Law is “from Mecca” (but it is called Zion in Isaiah 2:3), because Muslims follow the religion of Abraham (4:125, 16:123), and Abraham and Ishmael built the House in Mecca (2:127). The two places, Zion and Jerusalem, are also differentiated in Amos 1:2 and Micah 3:12)(According to the “dictionary of the Old Testament” by “Tremper Longman”, “the etymology of the word Zion is uncertain”, the word “Zion” might refer to “castle”, or “dry land”; in that sense, Mecca is a dry land; or “Zion” might be derived from the Arabic “sana” (protect or citadel); in that sense, the House in Mecca is a safe place (3:97))(Another interpretation is that Zion is in the Hereafter, because Psalms says that that’s where they appear before God; people can also appear before God in the Hereafter (34:31, 6:30, 11:18, 32:11-12); and believers are also “protected” in the Hereafter from the fire (2:201, 3:16). And Joel 2:1 confirms that Zion is in the Hereafter: “blow the trumpet in Zion … for the day of the Lord is coming”; in that sense, the Qur’an confirms that the trumpet is blown on “that Day” (23:101, 69:13-15)(e.g. Day of Resurrection). In addition, Joel 3:21 says “the Lord dwells in Zion”; according to the Qur’an God’s Throne extends over the heavens and the earth (2:255), but “earth” is in the context of “matter” (space contains matter), rather than referring to a certain location on planet earth. On the other hand, Zephaniah 3:16 says, “On that day they will say to Jerusalem, “Do not fear, Zion”, as if Jerusalem and Zion were the same place, but notice that the context is “on that day” (Zephaniah 3:15-16), so, there is a distinction between this world and the Hereafter. Why using different words of the same place in the same sentence, unless they are different places?)(The Gospel might confirm that Jews falsely invented that Jerusalem is the main or only place of worship; they were the only ones claiming so, in addition, there is a prediction of a place other than Jerusalem: John 4:20-21 says, “Our ancestors worshiped on this mountain, but you Jews claim that the place where we must worship is in Jerusalem. Woman, Jesus replied, believe me, a time is coming when you will worship the father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem”. Another point is that, according to John 4:22, the woman, opposing Jerusalem, is Samaritan. The origin of Samaritans is traced back to the time of Moses; in other words, an older source says that the main or only city to worship is not Jerusalem. See the article below “Samaritans existing in ancient Egypt?”)(Another point is that, even if the Torah were to contradict the Qur’an: the Torah is not a reliable source because it is said that it had multiple authors and that its composition took place over centuries. See the links below: “Is the Bible corrupted?”)(Allah knows best)

2:91 And when it is said to them, "Believe in what Allah has revealed," they say, "We believe in what was revealed to us." And they disbelieve in what is besides it, while it is the truth confirming that which is with them. Say, "Then why did you kill the Prophets of Allah before, if you were believers?"

2:87 And indeed We gave Moses the Book and We followed him up with Messengers. And We gave Jesus, the son of Mary, clear signs and supported him with the Holy Spirit. Is it not so, that whenever there came to you a Messenger with what yourselves did not desire, you acted arrogantly? So a party you denied and another party you killed. 2:88 And they said, "Our hearts are wrapped." Nay, Allah has cursed them for their disbelief; so little is that which they believe.

16:123 Then We revealed to you to follow the religion of Abraham, upright; and he was not of those who associate." 16:124 The Sabbath was only appointed for those who differed in it. And indeed, your Lord will surely judge between them on the Day of Resurrection in that over which they used to differ.

(Muslims follow the religion of Abraham, so they leave trade on Friday (62:9). Verses 16:123-124 implicitly say that Friday was also appointed for the Jews, because Verse 16:124 says that the Sabbath was only appointed for those who differed in it. According to the context, “it” refers to “following the religion of Abraham” (16:123), so, they differed in following the religion of Abraham (leaving trade on Friday), then they were burdened with the sabbath)(Allah knows best)

22:78 And strive for Allah with the striving which is due to Him. He has chosen you and has not placed upon you any difficulty in the religion. The religion of your father Abraham. He named you Muslims before, and in this, that the Messenger may be a witness over you and you may be witnesses over mankind. So establish prayer and give zakah (charity) and hold fast to Allah. He is your Protector - so an Excellent Protector and an Excellent Helper.

("Muslim" is an Arabic word meaning "one who submits (to God)". According to the definition, all Prophets were Muslims)(In regard to the word “Jew” (in Hebrew, “Yehudi”), it is derived from the name “Judah”, which was the name of one of Jacob’s twelve sons. Judah was the ancestor of one of the tribes of Israel (tribe of Judah), which was named after him. In the Qur’an, the word “Jew” (H-W-D) is used in the context of religion, not ethnicity or lineage, because it is mentioned together with other religious groups (Christian and Sabians (2:62)), so Jacob and the descendants were not Jews (2:140))(The religion in the sight of God is Islam (3:19, 3:85), and in that regard, the Prophets were not Jews or Christians (2:140), but they were Muslims/submitted (to God))(The Qur’an also uses the words “Children of Israel” (Bani Israel), but, in this case, the words “Bani Israel” establish their lineage, so they are referred in the Qur’an as the descendants of Israel (Jacob))(Allah knows best)

2:140 Or do you say that Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob and the descendants were Jews or Christians?" Say, "Are you more knowing or is Allah?" And who is more unjust than one who conceals a testimony he has from Allah? And Allah is not unaware of what you do.

14:35 And when Abraham said, "My Lord, make this city secure and keep me and my sons away from worshiping idols. 14:36 My Lord, indeed, they have led astray many among mankind. So whoever follows me, then indeed, he is of me, and whoever disobeys me, then indeed, You are Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

10:84 And Moses said, "O my people, if you have believed in Allah, then put your trust in Him, if you are Muslims."

3:65 O People of the Book, why do you argue concerning Abraham while the Torah and the Gospel were not revealed except after him? Then why don't you use your intellect?

3:67 Abraham was neither a Jew nor a Christian, but he was a true Muslim, and he was not of the polytheists.

2:135 And they said, "Be Jews or Christians, then you will be guided." Say, "Nay, the religion of Abraham, the upright; and he was not of those who associated partners."

2:133 Or were you witnesses when death came to Jacob, when he said to his sons, "What will you worship after me?" They said, "We will worship your God and the God of your fathers, Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac – One God. And we are Muslims/submissive to Him."

5:111 And when I inspired to the disciples to believe in Me and in My Messenger they said, "We believe and bear witness that indeed we are Muslims. 5:112 When the disciples said, "O Jesus, son of Mary, Is your Lord able to send down to us a table spread from the heaven?" He said, "Fear Allah, if you are believers."

6:161 Say, "Indeed (as for) me, my Lord has guided me to a straight path – a right religion, the religion of Abraham - a true monotheist. And he was not of the polytheists.

6:91 And they did not appraise Allah with His true appraisal, when they said, "Allah did not reveal to a human being anything." Say, "Who revealed the Book which Moses brought as light and guidance for the people? You make it into parchments, disclosing and concealing much. And you were taught that which you did not know – neither you nor your forefathers." Say, "Allah." Then leave them to play in their discourse.

(It is said that the Torah had multiple authors and that its composition took place over centuries, so it is not a reliable source. See the article below “Is the Bible corrupted?”)(Allah knows best)

5:48 And We have revealed to you the Book in truth, confirming the Book that came before it and as a guardian over it. So judge between them by what Allah has revealed and do not follow their vain desires when the truth has come to you. For each of you We have made a law and a clear way. And if Allah had willed, He would have made you one community [and] but to test you in what He has given you; so race to good. To Allah you will all return, then He will inform you concerning that over which you used to differ.

(The Qur’an is a Criterion (3:4) to know what is true)(Christians and Jews distort, corrupt and/or contradict each other, then a new revelation was needed, but this time the new Revelation is preserved (the Qur’an)(15:9), then, this time, there is no need for a new book after the Qur’an)(Allah knows best)

5:13 So for their breaking of their covenant We cursed them and We made their hearts hard. They distort words from their places, and forgot a part of what they were reminded of. And you will not cease to discover treachery from them except a few of them. But forgive them and overlook. Indeed, Allah loves the good-doers.

(According to Verse 5:13 the Jews “forgot a part of what they were reminded of”. Jews do not believe in Hell, but all Messengers said that the disbelievers would be punished eternally in the fire)(The Jews did not erase or failed to erase everything about “hell” from their scripture, according to Daniel 12:2 “multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt”, Psalm 145:20 “The Lord preserves all who love him, but all the wicked He will destroy”, Psalm 78:65-66 “then the Lord awoke as from sleep, as a warrior wakes from the stupor of wine. He beat back his enemies; he put them to everlasting shame”)(Allah knows best)

55:43 This (is) Hell which the criminals deny [of it].

32:20 But as for those who are defiantly disobedient, then their refuge is the Fire. Every time they wish to come out from it, they will be returned in it, and it will be said to them, "Taste the punishment of the Fire, which you used to deny."

(God is not unjust to the people (8:51). A believer and a disbeliever are not the same (45:21, 32:18-20, 40:58), so those who believed and did righteous deeds would be eternally in Paradise, and those who disbelieved and made bad deeds would be eternally in Hell)(God is not unjust; in order to go to Paradise forever, the wrongdoers go to Hell forever)(Allah knows best)

22:10 That is for what your hands have sent forth, and that Allah is not unjust to His slaves.

41:43 Nothing is said to you except what was said to the Messengers before you. Indeed, your Lord is Possessor of forgiveness, and Possessor of painful penalty.

46:34 And the Day those who disbelieved are exposed to the Fire, "Is this not the truth?" They will say, "Yes, by our Lord." He will say, "Then taste the punishment because you used to disbelieve."

46:10 Say, "Do you see if it is from Allah, and you disbelieve in it, and a witness from among the Children of Israel testifies to the like thereof, then he believed, while you are arrogant?" Indeed, Allah does not guide the wrongdoing people.

9:63 Do they not know that he who opposes Allah and His Messenger, that for him is the Fire of Hell, wherein (he will) abide forever? That is the disgrace, the great.

17:53 And say to My slaves to say that which is best. Indeed, Satan sows discord between them. Indeed, Satan is a clear enemy to man.

(In Judaism, “satan” is mentioned in the Torah and Talmud, but the Rabbis usually interpreted the word “satan” as referring strictly to human adversaries, so they usually translate the term “Satan” as “opponent” or “adversary”, while the Hebrew Bible confirms that it is also in reference to a non-physical creature. For example, in the Book of Job, Satan causes trouble to Job, because he wanted Job to say something against God; while Job or any other human did not see Satan (Job 1:6-12; Job 2:1-13))(See the links below, “Who are the Jinn?” and “Which category of creature does the Qur’an put ‘Iblees’ into?”)(Allah knows best)

61:6 And when Jesus, the son of Mary, said, "O children of Israel, indeed I am the Messenger of Allah to you confirming what came before me of the Torah and bringing good tidings of a Messenger to come after me, whose name is Ahmad." But when he came to them with clear evidences, they said, "This is obvious magic."

(According to Verse 61:6, the Jews are required to follow the Qur’an, because Jesus was sent to the children of Israel, and he announced them the coming of Muhammad)(Noah was sent to his people (11:25), Jesus was sent to the Children of Israel (3:49), Salih was sent to Thamud (7:73), Lot was sent to his people (11:89), etc. And Muhammad was sent to all mankind (34:28), including Jews)(See the link below: “Do the Jews have to follow the Qur’an / Islam?”)(Allah knows best)

4:46 Among the Jews are those who distort words from their places and they say, "We hear and disobey" and "Hear but be not heard” and "Raina", twisting their tongues and defaming the religion. And if they had said, "We hear and obey" and "Hear and look at us”, it would surely have been better for them and more suitable. [And] but Allah cursed them for their disbelief, so they believe not, except for a few.

4:156 And for their disbelief and their saying against Mary a great slander.

(It is said that Christians censored the Talmud because it was alleged that the Talmud contained slanderous references to Jesus and his mother, Mary)(Verse 4:156 confirms that they said a great slander about Mary. In regard to Verse 19:28, the Jews referred to Mary as “sister of Aaron”. One interpretation is that they called her so because they thought that Aaron was responsible for the golden calf, so “O sister of Aaron” could have been used in a pejorative or derogatory way)(Allah knows best)

5:78 Those who disbelieved from the Children of Israel were cursed by the tongue of David and Jesus, son of Mary, because they disobeyed and they used to transgress.

50:38 And certainly, We created the heavens and the earth and whatever is between both of them in six periods, and fatigue did not touch Us.

(God does not rest, so the Qur’an (50:38) corrects Genesis 2:2-3)(The term “was refreshed” in Exodus 31:17 is wrong too)(Allah knows best)

28:76 Indeed, Qarun was from the people of Moses, but he oppressed them. And We gave him treasures which indeed the keys of it would burden a company (of men) possessors of great strength. When his people said to him, "Do not exult. Indeed, Allah does not love the exultant.

(if a Jew is a murder or rapist or terrorist, etc., he is still a Jew, because according to Jews, someone is a Jew if he has a Jewish mother. That makes them to belong to a group in which there are wrongdoers. On the other hand, "Muslim" is an Arabic word meaning "one who submits (to God)". By definition, if someone doesn’t submits to the will of God, he is not a Muslim, whether he considers himself a Muslim or not. So Muslims are never criminals (68:35-36), because they obey God. And what God commands is good)(If Jews support the wrongdoers among themselves, they would become like them)(Allah knows best)

58:14 Do you not see [to] those who take as allies a people upon them/(whom) (is) (the) wrath (of) Allah? They (are) not/(neither) of you and not/(nor) of them, and they swear to the/(a) lie while they know. 58:15 Allah has prepared for them a severe punishment. [They] evil indeed, is what/(that which) they used to do.

(If someone is a wrongdoer (e.g. murder, rapist, blasphemer, thief, etc.), you do not have to support him, just because his mother is Jewish, but you have to support righteousness)(Mankind is divided into believers and disbelievers, rather than Jews vs. gentiles. They follow their desires)(Allah knows best)

4:140 And surely He has revealed to you in the Book that when you hear the Verses of Allah being rejected and ridiculed, then do not sit with them until they engage in a conversation other than that. Indeed, you then, (would be) like them. Indeed, Allah will gather the hypocrites and disbelievers in Hell all together.

45:19 Indeed, they will never avail you against Allah in anything. And indeed, the wrongdoers, some of them are allies of others, and Allah is the Protector of the righteous.

21:92 Indeed, this is your religion – one religion, and I Am your Lord, so worship Me.

2:40 O Children of Israel, remember My Favor which I bestowed upon you, and fulfill My Covenant, I will fulfill your covenant, and fear Me and Me alone. 2:41 And believe in what I have sent down confirming that which is with you, and be not the first disbeliever of it. And do not exchange My Signs for a small price, and fear Me (and Me) Alone. 2:42 And do not mix the Truth with falsehood and conceal the Truth while you know. 2:43 And establish the prayer and give zakah (charity) and bow down with those who bow down.

4:150 Indeed, those who disbelieve in Allah and His Messengers and they wish to differentiate between Allah and His Messengers and they say, "We believe in some and we disbelieve in others." And they wish to take a way (in) between that. 4:151 Truly, those - they (are) the disbelievers. And We have prepared for the disbelievers a humiliating punishment.

2:177 It is not righteousness that you turn your faces towards the east and the west but righteous is he who believes in Allah , the Last Day, the Angels, the Book, and the Prophets and gives wealth in spite of love for it to the near relatives, the orphans, the needy, the wayfarer, and those who ask, and in freeing the necks (slaves); and who establish prayer and give zakah and those who fulfill their covenant when they make it; and those who are patient in suffering, hardship, and periods of stress. Those are the ones who are true and it is those who are the righteous.

(Islam does not encourage slavery or having sex slaves. See these articles in the links below: “Is slavery allowed in Islam?” and “Are sex slaves allowed in Islam?”)(In regard to “sex slaves”, in Judaism, according to Genesis 38:8, women must have relations with her husband’s brother, while in Islam women have no obligation or cannot be forced to have relations. In Deuteronomy 22:28-29, if a man rapes a girl, he must marry her forever and can never divorce. So, this could rather punish the victim, and the rapist would go unpunished; according to Numbers 31:17-18, “Now kill all the boys. And kill every woman who has slept with a man, but save for yourselves every girl who has never slept with a man”. This verse is in a context of slavery “save for yourselves”, and in a context of sex, because they take the virgin ones for themselves)(In Leviticus 25:44-46, “Your male and female slaves are to come from the nations around you; from them you may buy slaves. You may also buy some of the temporary residents living among you and members of their clans born in your country, and they will become your property. You can bequeath them to your children as inherited property and can make them slaves for life, but you must not rule over your fellow Israelites ruthlessly.”)(So, slavery is allowed in Judaism, while it is not in Islam)(Allah knows best)

29:8 And We have enjoined upon man goodness to his parents, but if they both strive against you to make you associate with Me that of which you have no knowledge, then do not obey both of them. To Me is your return, and I will inform you about what you used to do.

(In Judaism, even the children could be oppressed and killed by the parents; according to Deuteronomy 21:18-20, “If someone has a stubborn and rebellious son who does not obey his father and mother and will not listen to them when they discipline him, his father and mother shall take hold of him and bring him to the elders at the gate of his town. They shall say to the elders, “This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious. He will not obey us. He is a glutton and a drunkard.”. Then all the men of his town are to stone him to death. You must purge the evil from among you. All Israel will hear of it and be afraid.”)(Allah knows best)

5:38 And for the male thief and the female thief - cut off their hands as a recompense for what they earned as an exemplary (punishment) (nakalan) from Allah. And Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise. 5:39 But whoever repented after his wrongdoing and reforms, then indeed, Allah will turn to him in forgiveness. Indeed, Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

(In regard to mutilation, in Islam, there is a punishment for the thieves, but if they repent and reform, Allah will turn to him in forgiveness (5:39))(In regard to Judaism, in Deuteronomy 25:11-12, the context is that woman is punished by cutting off her hand if she seizes in self-defense the private parts of someone who is not her husband. So, it is male Jewish chauvinism and oppression against women)(Note: the root of “nakalan” (5:38) is “Nun-Kaf-Lam”, and it means “desist; prevent; any punishment serving to give warning to others than the sufferer or that restrains the offender from repeating the offense”. It can be understood as an example to avoid or a deterrence)(Allah knows best)

2:222 And they ask you about menstruation. Say, "It is a hurt, so keep away (from) women during (fi) (their) menstruation. And do not approach them until they are cleansed. Then when they are purified, then come to them from where Allah has ordered you." Indeed, Allah loves those who turn in repentance and loves those who purify themselves.

(The root of “mahidi” (menstruation) is “Ha-Ya-Dad”, and it means “to have her courses, menstruate; her blood flowed from her womb, to attain the age of menstruation, to make a thing flow”. So, according to the definition, Verse 2:222 can be interpreted as keeping away in or from her blood flowing, so from that specific part, not from “women”. In regard to Judaism, Leviticus 15:19-20 says, “when a woman has her regular flow of blood, the impurity of her monthly period will last seven days, and anyone who touches her will be unclean till evening. Anything she lies on during her period will be unclean, and anything she sits on will be unclean”)(Allah knows best)

2:35 And We said, "O Adam, dwell you and your spouse in Paradise, and (you both) eat freely from wherever you (both) wish. But do not (you two) approach this tree, lest you (both) be of the wrongdoers." 2:36 Then Satan made (both of) them slip out of it, and he got (both of) them out from that in which they (both) were. And We said, "Go down (all of you), as enemies to one another; and on the earth, for you is a dwelling place and a provision for a period."

(Jews and Christians make a woman solely responsible for the so-called “original sin”; and they made laws and tradition against women’s rights, while the Qur’an protects women)(See the link below “Do non-Muslims oppress women?”)(Allah knows best)

19:16 And mention in the Book Mary, when she withdrew from her family to an eastern place. 19:17 Then she took a screen (hijaban) from them. Then We sent to her Our Spirit, then he appeared to her in the likeness of a well-proportioned man.

(Some non-Muslims try to oppress/deny Muslim women’s right to wear the veil/hijab, while the veil is modesty (24:31) and protection of women (33:59), and Mary also wore it (19:16). There are no objections in the Torah on using veil/hijab (Genesis 24:65, Genesis 38:14-15). Women is obligated to wear veil/hijab in the New Testament (1 Corinthians 11:5-7))(Allah knows best)

49:12 O you who believe, avoid much assumption. Indeed, some assumption is sin. And do not spy and do not backbite each other. Would one of you like to eat the flesh of his dead brother? Nay, you would hate it. And fear Allah; indeed, Allah is Oft-Returning, Most Merciful.

(Cannibalism is implicitly rejected in Verse 49:12. It is addressed to the believers, who are righteous and moral people, so they would not eat such flesh)(In regard to Judaism: Jeremiah 19:9 says, “I will make them eat the flesh of their sons and daughters, and they will eat one another’s flesh because their enemies will press the siege so hard against them to destroy them”; Lamentations 4:10, “with their own hands compassionate women have cooked their own children, who became their food when my people were destroyed”; Deuteronomy 28:53-55, “because of the suffering your enemy will inflict on you during the siege, you will eat the fruit of the womb, the flesh of the sons and daughters the Lord your God has given you. Even the most gentle and sensitive man among you will have no compassion on his own brother or the wife he loves or his surviving children, and he will not give to one of them any of the flesh of his children that he is eating. It will be all he has left because of the suffering your enemy will inflict on you during the siege of all your cities.”; “2 Kings 6:28-29 “Then he asked her, “What’s the matter?” She answered, “This woman said to me, ‘Give up your son so we may eat him today, and tomorrow we’ll eat my son.’ So we cooked my son and ate him. The next day I said to her, ‘Give up your son so we may eat him,’ but she had hidden him.”)(Allah knows best)

4:95 Not equal are those among the believers who sit, except those who are disabled, and those who strive in the way of Allah with their wealth and their lives. Allah has preferred in rank those who strive with their wealth and their lives to those who sit. And to all Allah has promised the best. And Allah has preferred those who strive over those who sit, with a great reward,

4:5 And do not give the foolish your wealth, which Allah made a means of support for you, but provide for them with it and clothe them and speak to them words of kindness.

(Disabled people are socially excluded in the Hebrew Bible, in Deuteronomy 23:1: “no one who has been emasculated by crushing or cutting may enter the assembly of the Lord”; Leviticus 21:17 says “for the generations to come none of your descendants who has a (physical) defect may come near to offer the food of his God”; Leviticus 21:18 “no man who has any defect may come near: no man who is blind or lame, disfigured or deformed”; Leviticus 21:19, “no man with a crippled foot or hand”; Leviticus 21:20 “or who is a hunchback or a dwarf, or who has any eye defect, or who has festering or running sores or damaged testicles”; Leviticus 21:21 “no descendant of Aaron the priest who has any defect is to come near to present the food offerings to the Lord. He has a defect; he must not come near to offer the food of his God”; Leviticus 21:23 “yet because of his (physical) defect, he must not go near the curtain or approach the altar, and so desecrate my sanctuary. I am the Lord, who makes them holy”)(The world should be concerned that such verses in Judaism might inspire evil ideas to people, who might make the Hebrew Bible an excuse and their inspiration, in order to commit evil deeds. For example, in Germany, their sacred book is the Bible; the (German) Nazi ideology killed approximately 300,000 disabled people)(Allah knows best)

9:114 And Abraham’s asking of forgiveness for his father was not except because of a promise he had promised it to him. But when it became clear to him that he was an enemy to Allah, he disassociated from him. Indeed, Abraham was compassionate, forbearing.

(In Judaism, some people are unjustly and wrongly excluded because of their ancestors’ errors; Deuteronomy 23:2 says, “no one born of a forbidden marriage nor any of their descendants may enter the assembly of the Lord, not even in the tenth generation”)(Allah knows best)

21:74 And to Lot We gave him judgment and knowledge, and We saved him from the town which was doing wicked deeds. Indeed, they were an evil people, defiantly disobedient.

(Likewise, Deuteronomy 23:3 says, “no Ammonite or Moabite or any of their descendants may enter the assembly of the Lord, not even in the tenth generation” (Note: according to the biblical account, Moab and Ammon were born to Lot and Lot’s elder and younger daughters, respectively. The Bible refers to both the Moabites and Ammonites as Lot’s sons, born of incest with his daughters (Genesis 19:37-38)). So, Deuteronomy is unjustly and wrongly excluding people because of “what their ancestors did”, and, on the other hand, Deuteronomy is defaming Lot. Actually Lot did not commit wicked deeds (21:74). Besides Lot, the Jews defame other Prophets (e.g. Jesus, Aaron))(Allah knows best)

9:11 But if they repent, and establish prayer and give zakah, then (they are) your brothers in religion. And We explain the Verses in detail for a people (who) know.

2:221 And do not marry polytheistic women until they believe. And a believing bondwoman is better than a polytheistic woman, even if she pleases you. And do not give in marriage to polytheistic men until they believe, and a believing bondman is better than a polytheistic man, even if he pleases you. They invite to the Fire, and Allah invites to Paradise and forgiveness by His permission. And He makes clear His Verses for people so that they may take heed.

(In Islam, you cannot marry someone solely motivated by her beauty. In regard to Christianity and Judaism, Ecclesiasticus / Sirach 36:18 says, “the stomach takes in all kinds of food, but some foods are better than others”; Ecclesiasticus / Sirach 36:22-23, “a woman’s beauty delights the beholder, a man likes nothing better. If her tongue is kind and gentle, her husband is the happiest of men”. So, according to the Bible there is “nothing better” than woman’s beauty, in addition, if she talks kindly, even happier. In that regard, women may suffer discrimination)(Allah knows best)

2:128 Our Lord, and make us Muslims (submissive) to You and from our descendants a Muslim community (submissive) to You. And show us our rites and turn to us. Indeed, You are the Oft-Returning, the Most Merciful. ... 2:183 O you who believe, fasting is prescribed to you as it was prescribed to those before you, so that you may become righteous.

(According to Jewish tradition, non-Jews should only follow the “seven laws of Noah”. So, they try to prevent non-Jews from the rites/obligations, because many things are not mentioned in those seven laws. For example, fasting is prescribed for all of humanity, so, the Jews were concealing other prescribed rites by mentioning only seven)(Allah knows best)

3:187 And when Allah took a Covenant (from) those who were given the Book, "You certainly make it clear to [the] mankind and (do) not conceal it. Then they threw it behind their backs and [they] exchanged [with] it (for) a little price. And wretched (is) what they purchase.

6:91 And they did not appraise Allah with His true appraisal, when they said, "Allah did not reveal to a human being anything." Say, "Who revealed the Book which Moses brought as light and guidance for the people? You make it into parchments, disclosing and concealing much. And you were taught that which you did not know – neither you nor your forefathers." Say, "Allah." Then leave them to play in their discourse. … 6:93 And who is more unjust than one who invents a lie about Allah or said, "It has been inspired to me" while nothing was inspired to him, and one who said, "I will reveal like what Allah has revealed." And if you could see when the wrongdoers are in the agonies of death while the Angels are stretching their hands, "Discharge your souls, today you will be recompensed with a humiliating punishment because you used to say against Allah other than the truth and you were being arrogant towards His Verses."

91:1 By the sun and its brightness, 91:2 And the moon when it follows it, 91:3 And the day when it displays it, 91:4 And the night when it covers it,

(There must be no scientific errors in order to know that a revelation is from God. For example, according to the Qur’an, the sun is immobile in terms of night and day, because it is the day what displays the brightness of the sun (91:3), and it is the night what covers the brightness of the sun (91:4). Then, the earth, which is also involved in the day and night, is the one that is moving (rotating). The Verse also says that the moon “reads / follows” the sun’s brightness, so it implies that the moon has a reflected light. So, the Qur’an is scientifically correct. See also the link below “Is the Qur'an scientifically correct?”)(On the other hand, the Bible says in Joshua 10:12-13, “Sun, stand still over Gibeon, and you, moon, over the Valley of Aijalon. So the sun stood still … The sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day”. It is an order addressed to the sun and about the sun itself, instead of to the rotation of planet earth, so it is unscientific)(Allah knows best)

27:76 Indeed, this Qur’an relates to the Children of Israel most of that (concerning which) they differ in it.

(In regard to Palestine / Israel, according to Genesis 15:18, God gives the land to the descendants of Abraham, from Wadi of Egypt to the great river, the Euphrates; the Arabs are also descendants of Abraham, then the Arabs are included in the covenant)(In regard to Genesis 17:19-21, these Verses are used by Jews to say that Palestine was given only to the descendants of Isaac, but that’s in direct contradiction with the covenant with Abraham in Genesis 15:18; on the other hand, Genesis 17:4 explicitly says that the covenant is that God will make Abraham the father of many nations; Muslims follow the religion of Abraham, so the covenant is fulfilled with the descendants of Ishmael, not Isaac. Genesis 17:7 says, “I will establish my covenant … to be your God and the God of your descendants after you”; it has also been fulfilled with the descendants of Ishmael, because God in the Torah is also the One Who revealed the Qur’an; Genesis 17:8 says, “the whole land of Canaan … I will give as an everlasting possession to you and your descendants after you”; Abraham’s descendants are both, Ishmael and Isaac’s descendants; Genesis 17:10 says, “the covenant you are to keep: every male among you shall be circumcised”; Muslims are also circumcised)(After Abraham heard that Sarah will bear Isaac, Abraham said, in Genesis 17:18, “if only Ishmael might live under your blessing”, then Genesis 17:19 says, “then God said “Yes, but your wife Sarah will bear you a son, and you will call him Isaac. I will establish my covenant with him as an everlasting covenant for his descendants after him”. These verses does not abrogate the verse about giving Canaan to Ishmael’s descendants (as a descendant of Abraham), but it is including Isaac’s descendants, together with Ishmael’s descendants; on the other hand, Genesis 17:19 says “YES” to Abraham’s petition: “ONLY Ishmael might live under your blessing” (after hearing the news about having Isaac)(Note: some translations say “no” instead of “yes”, so it might have been corrupted). And Genesis 17:21 says, “but my covenant I will establish with Isaac”, which is understood by Jews as if it were to abrogate that the covenant is also for Ishmael’s descendants, while according to the context, Abraham wanted “only Ishmael”, then “establishing the covenant with Isaac, in addition” implies that it is not only Ishmael, but the covenant is with both, Isaac and Ishmael’s descendants; and under the condition of good deeds (Leviticus 18:24-28), but Jews deny the Prophets (Jesus, Muhammad), so Palestine is for “Muslims”, whether a Muslim Arab, or a Jew converted to Islam)(See the article below, “Does the Qur'an say that Palestine/Israel belongs to the Muslims or to the Jews?”)(Allah knows best)

2:136 Say, "We have believed in Allah and what is revealed to us and what was revealed to Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob and the descendants, and what was given to Moses and Jesus and what was given to the Prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them. And to Him we are submissive."

(Isaac and Ishmael and all other Prophets were Muslims (aka Submitted (to God)), not Jews or Christians)(In order to practice Islam it is irrelevant to think whether it was Isaac or Ishmael the one to be sacrificed by Abraham)(According to the Bible, Isaac was the one to be sacrificed (Genesis 22:2), but that verse says, “take your son, your only son, whom you love - Isaac”. Isaac was not his “only son”, but Ishmael was Abraham’s first son, according to Jews, Christians and Muslims. So, at first Ishmael was Abraham’s only son, because Ishmael came first, so the Bible could implicitly suggest that Ishmael was the one to be sacrificed. The mention of “your only son” could raise doubts about who was the one to be sacrificed. So, it is not a matter invented by Muslims, but the Bible seems corrupted and contradicts itself by saying that the second son is the only son)(Another point is that Judaism became a racist religion, because according to themselves, a person is or can be a Jew only if his mother is a Jew, so for them it is an important matter that he was Isaac instead of Ishmael, so Genesis could have been corrupted. In that sense, it is said that the Torah is not a reliable source because it is said that it had multiple authors and that its composition took place over centuries. According to Verse 5:13, about the Jews, “They distort words from their places, and forgot a part of what they were reminded of”)(Jesus announced Muhammad; the coming of a non-Jewish Prophet/Messenger could have also been their reason, for the Jews, to reject Jesus)(See the link below: “Is the Bible corrupted?” and “Is Muhammad mentioned in the Bible?”)(Allah knows best)

9:23 O you who believe, do not take your fathers and your brothers as allies if they prefer disbelief over belief. And whoever of you takes them as allies, then those are the wrongdoers.

(The believers do not take disbelievers as allies. Jews take disbelievers among themselves as allies. According to Verse 9:23, those who do that are wrongdoers)(According to the article “Irreligion in Israel” in wikipedia, “Israeli Jewish society is highly secularized when compared to the rest of the Middle East. Israeli Arab society is much more religious, with any degree of secularity barely acknowledged”)(So, Palestines have more right over the land)(The practicing Jews do not believe in some religious matters (e.g. Jews do not believe in Hell; they do not believe in Jesus as the Messiah, etc.). Those who disbelieve in part of the Scripture are to be punished (2:85))(Allah knows best)

12:90 They said, "Are you indeed Joseph?" He said, "I am Joseph, and this is my brother. Indeed, Allah has favored us. Indeed, he who fears Allah and is patient, then indeed, Allah does not let go waste the reward of the good-doers." 12:91 They said, "By Allah, certainly Allah has preferred you over us, and indeed, we have been sinners."

(According to Verses 12:90-91, God preferred / favored Joseph and his brother (Benjamin?), over their other brothers. So, among the Children of Israel, the good-doers were favored over the wrongdoers / sinners)(Another point is that, among the sons of Jacob, only Joseph was a Prophet; Joseph’s descendants are (at least) half Egyptian because Joseph’s wife was Asenath, an Egyptian woman. According to the article “Asenath” by “Mary Jane Chaignot” in “biblewise(dot)com”, “she was an Egyptian princess, aristocratic, and high-born. Together, she and Joseph had at least two sons: Ephraim and Manasseh. These sons would become the progenitors of the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh”)(Some Jews say that the Palestinians are Egyptian, as if Egyptians did not belong to Palestine, and as if Jews were not genetically related to Arabs (e.g. Egyptians), while Arabs are descendants of Abraham. So, some Jews are in fact fratricides (aka “the act of murdering one’s own brother or sister”). Even if they were not genetically related, expelling and murdering someone for such a reason is still an abominable and a sinful act)(Actually, Palestine was part of Egypt at the time of Moses, so if Palestinians are Egyptian, as Jews say, then Palestinians are at home, while modern day Jews came from different parts of Europe, mixed with Europeans, and deviated. According to the Jewish Bible, they were commanded not to marry gentiles: Deuteronomy 7:3-4, “Do not intermarry with them. Do not give your daughters to their sons or take their daughters for your sons, for they will turn your children away from following me ...”)(Allah knows best)

12:99 Then when they entered upon Joseph, he took his parents to himself and said, "Enter Egypt if Allah wills, safe."

(Moses is to settle his people in Egypt (10:87), and Joseph said to his parents “enter Egypt”. The Scripture does not say about entering a place to be named “Israel”)(Allah knows best)

4:47 O you who (have) been given the Book, believe in what We (have) revealed confirming what is with you, before We efface faces and turn them on their backs or We curse them as We cursed companions of the Sabbath. And the command of Allah is executed.
