Did prophet Muhammad recieve revelations outside the Qur'an ?

Peace to the world,

The way traditional muslims (scholars too) try to justify their "writing the books with their own hands and claiming that its from Allah" is by tricking the non-suspecting masses  with statements such as "There are revelations beside the Qur'an that was given to Muhammad". To know the truth, one must atleast let the Qur'an speak on the subject of revelations. Let us begin by just doing that:


What was revealed to the prophet ?

Say, "What thing is greatest in testimony?" Say, " Allah is witness between me and you. And this Qur'an was revealed to me that I may warn you thereby and whomever it reaches. Do you testify that with Allah there are other deities?" Say, "I will not testify." Say, "Indeed, He is but one God, and indeed, I am free of what you associate  ."
[Qur'an 6:19]

Revealed: Qur'an for the purpose of warning people and whoever the message reaches. The idea can be verified in other places of the Qur'an

Alif, Lam, Ra. These are the verses of the clear Book. Indeed, We have sent it down as an Arabic Qur'an that you might understand. We relate to you, the best of stories in what We have revealed to you of this Qur'an although you were, before it, among the unaware.
[Qur'an 12:1-3]

Revealed: Qur'an in arabic where God relates to the audience the best of story.

Nowhere in the Qur'an can one point out that God informs of external revelations given to the prophet to guide us. The scholars have used a verse from the Qur'an (53:3-4) to justify that the messenger does not say anything from himself, but Allah, which implies to the masses that whatever Muhammad spoke was revelation in one sense. Let us investigate the verse, but UNLIKE the scholars/sheikhs, let us atleast try to look at the context.

By the star when it descends,Your companion has not strayed, nor has he erred, Nor does he speak from  inclination.It is not but a revelation revealed, Taught to him by one intense in strength -
[Qur'an 53:1-5]

So, in context, God never said that whatever Muhammad says is a revelation inspired of God. God was telling the audience that the messenger is not mad or gone astray, the messenger was not speaking by himself but "IT" is a revelation from God. "IT" here can not be anything outside Qur'an. The verses  are not refering to "THEM", in that case, the scholars would atleast have a case to discuss. So even here, the revelation is the Qur'an. Another point to notice is 9:43 and 66:01. If we interprete 53:1-5 as "whatever prophet says is revelation (outside Qur'an )" then what about the following verses:

May Allah pardon you, ; why did you give them permission ?  until it was evident to you who were truthful and you knew  the liars.
[Qur'an 09:43]

So, here we see Allah pointing out that Muhammad gave a wrong command.

O Prophet, why do you prohibit what Allah has made lawful for you, seeking the approval of your wives? And Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.
[Qur'an 66:01]

Here we observe that prophet made the mistake of forbidding something which Allah did not forbid.

My question is, if 53:1-5 means that whatever prophet ordered or did out of free-will is revelation from God, how can prophet make mistakes as shown in the above ayaats ? How can God tell Muhammad in one revelation to do something and in the Qur'an scold Muhammad for carrying out the order given in the other revelation ? Is your model of God schizophrenic ? In plain English, is God suffering from multiple personality disorder ? If not, ask your favourite scholars, why they interpret this ayaat in a way to degrade God.


Does the messenger act religious without Qur'anic revelation ?

The entire hadith based traditional Islam floats on judgements outside Qur'an. Qur'an bares witness that such hypocrites were present around Muhammad, who were not satisfied with the Qur'an and its judgements. Some even went as far as asking him to bring another Qur'an ( aren't the hadith collections just that ?) Let us consider the following ayaat as evidence:
And when you,  do not bring them a sign, they say, "Why have you not contrived it?" Say, "I only follow what is revealed to me from my Lord. This is enlightenment from your Lord and guidance and mercy for a people who believe."

[Qur'an 7:203]


And when Our verses are recited to them as clear evidences, those who do not expect the meeting with Us say, "Bring us a Qur'an other than this or change it." Say,  "It is not for me to change it on my own accord. I only follow what is revealed to me. Indeed I fear, if I should disobey my Lord, the punishment of a tremendous Day."
[Qur'an 10:15]
So, outside the revelations, the messenger can not provide solutions to your problems. Since the only revelation mentioned is the Qur'an, naturally the messenger was not there to teach anything outside the Qur'an.

Companions asking questions to prophet ?

Another popular explanation provided by the so called scholars/imams for the existance of outside qur'an religious teaching provided by Muhammad has to do with his companions (Sahaba). In this lie told by the scholars, it is said that when the companions asked Muhammad about certain things, Muhammad provided outside Qur'an teachings (ignoring the fact that he is just a man and God already found him faulty in 9:43,66:01). This lie is so much surprizing that it almost feels like these sheikhs/mufti/scholars are being paid to be deaf/dumb/blind when reading the Qur'an. It is shocking to note that Qur'an has ayaat on this specific subject matter. Here it is :

O you who have believed, do not ask about things which, if they are shown to you, will distress you. But if you ask about them while the Qur'an is being revealed, they will be shown to you. Allah has pardoned that which is past; and Allah is Forgiving and Forbearing.

[Qur'an 5:101]

It is surprising how these so called scholars totally missed out this ayaat. This ayaat if seen in the light of 9:43 and 66:01 and the message of the Qur'an, confirms that only God can guide. So stop troubling the messenger with questions. The messenger is just a man. But if you ask when the revelation is ONLINE in status, if God wills, He will show it.

To conclude, the Qur'an clearly talks about ONE revelations, which is Itself. None of the classical understanding of the sholars can hold their grounds in the light of the few Qur'an ayaats that I spoke about in this article.

Authentic Lies about messengers of God 2

Peace to the world,

This Student of Allah welcomes you to share the findings on lies attributed to messengers of God by the hadith narrators/collectors and their supporters. This is the second post of this series. As usual, we will look into the so called "Authentic Hadiths" that are Authentic lies ,conjectures and are being promoted by the sheikhs/imams/scholars of Islam as truth in the name of the messenger of God.

The hadith we wish to explore is about Dajjal(the one eyed anti-christ). Even though the very idea is not from Qur'an, it is indeed interesting to see the authentic hadith collections contradicting themselves as they try to narrate lies about the messenger of God.

Which eye of Dajjal is blind ?

1. Left eye according to Sahih-Muslim [Book 041, Number 7010]


 "Hudhalfa reported that Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: Dajjal is blind of left eye with thick hair and there would be a garden and fire with him and his fire would be a garden and his garden would be fire.   "


2. Right eye according to Sahih-Muslim [Book 041, Number 7005]
"Ibn Umar reported that Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him). made a mention of Dajjil in the presence of the people and said: Allah is not one-eyed and behold that Dajjal is blind of the right eye and his eye would be like a floating grape. "

My answer is that "Your both eyes are blind" if you follow these books full of contradictions and baseless Hadiths attributed to the Prophet. These criminals follow books other than Qur'an and land into these wierd PAGAN ideas. Their problems have been addressed by the Qur'an:

"What is wrong with you, how do you judge ? Or do you have a book which you study ?"
[Qur'an 68:36-37]

Surely, these scholars of islam promoting hadiths as a source of ISLAM beside the Qur'an are having other books beside the Qur'an. No matter what we say to these scholars, hadith collectors are seen by them as provider of the truth. One is not even allowed to challenge these scholars in traditional islam. Are they gods ? Otherwise why cant we challenge them ? Are they partners of God ? These collections of hadith are full of contradiction and errors . They contradict with Qur'an, common sense, and worst of all is that they contradict even with themselve (As demonstrated in this post about the eye of dajjal). For the people that follow such conjecture filled collections and baseless narrations, God says in the qur'an :

"Certainly to God belongs all who are in heavens and those who are on earth. As for those who call on partners beside God, THEY FOLLOW CONJECTURE, and THEY ONLY GUESS."
[Qur'an 10:66]

Peace be with you

Authentic Lies about messengers of God 1

PEACE,

From a muslim's perspective on the HOLY MONTH of RAMADAN, things cant get any more Holy-er. Apart from ofcourse the Pilgrimage. Even the people that do not remember that they actually have a God seems to act religious all of a sudden. With that being said, we must look at the lies that are hidden in the so called "Authentic collections of Bukhari" about the prophet/messenger of God. Let me quote how obscenely disobedient Bukhari tried to potray the messenger of God.

"Aisha said, "Allah's Apostle used to kiss some of his wives while he was fasting," and then she smiled." "
[Bukhari Volume 3 Book 31 Hadith 150]

So the messenger used to kiss his wives while fasting. Which to me looks rather wierd (I will show you why). Let us explore more on the subject from the collection of hadith by Abu Dawood:

"Narrated Aisha, Ummul Mu'minin:
The Prophet used to kiss her and suck her tongue when he was fasting."
[Abu Dawood Book 13, #2380]

So, what these people are saying is that the prophet used to kiss and even go as far as sucking the tounges of his wives while he was fasting ? Let us compare this with what God said to Muhammad to do :

"It has been made lawful for you DURING THE NIGHT OF FASTING to approach your women sexually. They are a garment for you and you are a garment for them. God knows that you used to betray your souls so He has accepted your repentance, and forgiven you; now you may approach them and seek what God has written for you. And you may eat and drink until the white thread is distinct from the black thread of dawn; then you shall complete the fast until night; and do not approach them while you are devoted in the temples. These are the boundaries of God, so do not transgress them. IT IS THUS THAT ALLAH CLEARIFIES HIS REVELATIONS to the people who they may be righteous" [ Qur'an 2:187]

And you are telling me that the prophet could not learn self control, discipline and self-restraint in the time of fasting ??? Even after Allah clarifying his Ayaat about it ???? What on earth is wrong with people ? Who authorized these idiots ? It is so sad to see that people will ignore the Quran to agree with these perverts.

"What is wrong with you, how do you judge? Or do you have a book which you study? In it, you can find what you wish?" [Qur'an 68:36]

Yes Allah, they have other books that they study for religious matters, in it they find whatever they want. Since you did not allow these perverts to approach their women while fasting, they invented their own books to permit what you forbid them. Lies in the name of Allah and his messenger.

May Allah curse these perverts. God !!!! people just find out any way to break Allah's command, and other blind fools obey like blind idiots.

Blindness is not the way to go, its through reason and logic that we must go forward. If you agree or disagree with my views, please feel free to comment.

Authentic Lies about messengers of God

Peace be with you,

I have been studying various forms of literature on Islam for long time now. I may not have been fortunate to know everything about everything, or even everything about something for that matter. But I have been able to observe the conjecture/fabrication/hypocrisy of the Imams/mullahs/sheiks/scholars of Islam. The top favourite method of these scholars and their blind herd of lambs is to quote from traditions of Muhammad collected by Bukhari/Muslim/Abu Dawood/etc. I wish to explore the ideas of "Science of Hadith", but not in this series, that will be yet another new series. In this series (Authentic lies about messengers of God), I wish to expose the hadiths from these "authentic" sources such as Bukhari/Muslim/etc.

The method will be pretty simple:
1. The hadith with references
2. Comparison with Qur'an with references
3. May by my "opinions" on the matter with commentary.

I hope this helps in educating my fellow muslims/non-muslims. The series will run as "Authentic Lies about messengers of God 1/2/3/4/so on.

UPDATE: The series is running already and the following episodes area available (click to read):
1. Authentic Lies about messenger of God 1
2. Authentic Lies about messenger of God 2
3. Authentic Lies about messenger of God 3
