talk about the next point that he
himself
he is the one behind he's the mastermind
behind
this quran all right so some people okay
so we have
established uh the fact that the quran
cannot have been copied from the bible
uh or else the quran would have
incorporated
those same you know quote unquote
mistakes that are present in the bible
but how come the quran left all those
mistakes and only extracted the
authentic things
right yeah unless it has to be coming
from the creator
indeed indeed right so now some people
claim that it was prophet muhammad peace
be upon him who was the author of the
quran
and now it's very important first of all
he was a person who was
did not know how to read and write on
the top of it he was given the title
of a siddiq the most honored and the
most truthful person
right not just by the muslims but also
by the non-muslims
so the most honest the best role model
person
in that community is claiming that this
book is from god
why would he be lying a person lies
a false prophet he or she lies because
of some ulterior gains
for name and fame and money and you know
power and all of those things
did he did he have a hidden bank account
did he have
is it recorded that he had all you know
lived a lavish lifestyle
that he had these worldly things that
might have uh to support these
accusations
well actually you know uh non-muslims
since they did not like the message of
the
oneness of god right they wanted to
worship all of those idols
they offered him they bribed him
actually that if you give up preaching
the oneness of god
will give you the best the most wealth
will make you the richest of the person
yeah if you desire that we'll give you
that or if you want if you're seeking
after power will make you the head of
the state of
all of the uh arab region or will give
you the best
women the best girls for you to marry
yeah
but guess what a false prophet would
have taken up the offer
right become the head of the state and
whatever but prophet muhammad peace be
upon him since he was
a true prophet he rejected that offer
and he said i'm not going to take that
offer even if they bring the sun and the
moon in my right and my left hand
so the life that he led in our brother
eddie
was a life of very modest very humble
life his house was smaller than the
studio
you know he had only like maybe just one
or two items in his house
and there are narrations by his wives
that sometimes there was
nothing for them to eat for three days
and three nights all they had to do
eat was you know just some dates and
some water so
the prophet prophet muhammad peace be
upon him he was much more richer
okay before he claimed prophethood then
after he claimed prophethood
what could have been the morty for that
yeah it's amazing is there anything in
the quran now if someone is saying that
look he's the mastermind behind this
obviously someone's going to want to
elevate himself someone's going to want
to put
themselves in the spotlight is there
anything in this
verbatim word of god now that would
support this
is there the calamity that struck him in
his
own personal life with his wife dying
or any of these other personal uh
situations
are they mentioned in there well there's
a very important point by the way
see the quran has six thousand plus
verses it speaks about you know many
individuals many prophets and all of
that it speaks about some of
the common people many tragic tragedies
struck prophet muhammad peace be upon
him right his
wife the most beloved wives khatija yeah
allah's peace be upon her she passed
away right
not mentioned not a mention about that
but what is mentioned
is about the mother of me uh jesus peace
be upon him
okay so if prophet muhammad peace be
upon him if he used to
love his wife and his daughters and his
children so much
and he had so many tragedies in his life
how come none of those things are
mentioned in there it's not mentioned in
there
yeah if he there you know god forbid a
false prophet he would have mentioned
and elevated and honored and praised
his family he did not do it he didn't do
it he didn't do it and he did not praise
himself
so much to cover so little time the next
possibility that some skeptics might
bring up
is that he got this from his visiting
with
others in different tribes other jews
and christians people from
from the greeks from other methodologies
what we got to say about this
all right they were some jews and some
christians okay not that many by the way
some scattered around the middle eastern
region okay
the three important ones that he had
interaction with were
varaha okay baraka was the uncle
of the first wife of prophet muhammad
peace be upon him her name was khatijah
yeah okay peace be upon her now he was a
christian
warah was a christian so when the
initial revelation came
the prophet peace be upon him he went to
warah
and he you know had some interaction
with him waraha confirmed that you are a
prophet
and that you your people are going to
reject you just the way that they have
rejected other people
right now now this uh worker that you're
saying for some people who are uh
hearing this name for the first time can
you kind of give more of uh
who is this person yeah this person you
used to be a pagan
he converted to christianity all right
so he knew
who prophet uh what is prophethood he
knew what revelation is
and he knew the prophecies he knew the
criteria to match to be a prophet
yeah not only that he knew the
prophecies mentioned in the old and the
new testament
about the coming of a prophet okay yeah
that could be a different show but there
are prophecies in the new and the old
testament
about prophet muhammad peace be upon him
so
after a few days after prophet muhammad
peace be upon him was appointed as a
prophet
warah he passed away yeah so the bottom
line is varaha was not alive
when the bulk of the quran was revealed
and written down so how can he have been
an author of the
about greek writings or these other
ancient sure so some people do bring up
the notion
that prophet muhammad peace be upon him
he extracted the material especially the
scientific facts
which are mentioned in the quran right
the quran has
6000 plus verses in there and no less
than 500 of them
they deal with modern scientific facts
which has been confirmed by our
scientists to be as true
yeah amazing right now there are some
scientific truths
in the greek roman persian chinese
indian egyptian writings there's no
doubt about it
okay that's the fact that they do
contain some scientific truths
besides the scientific truths they also
contain
an incorrect scientific statements
so now okay before i make that statement
suppose
if not i'm not a good student right and
if i have to take a final exam
and if i'm sitting next to a person who
is a
b average student if i'm going to
plagiarize all of his uh
uh answers right uh at the end of uh
the time at the end of the exam
am i going to get an a grade suppose if
this guy is getting a big rate would i
get an a grade if i copied 100
from that person no not at all not at
all right because
along with the right answers that he's
uh you know writing
i'm also going to incorporate the
incorrect answers
correct in the same way even if for the
sake of argument that if prophet
muhammad peace be upon him
had a laptop computer with all the
knowledge of the ancient world
and that he knew how to read and write
okay for the sake of argument
even then if he had to extract the
material
how did he only extract it the truths
from the scriptures
and left the falsehoods right unless he
was a prophet of allah
yeah unless he was a prophet right
because in those ancient scriptures
right
they say that the quran not the quran
the world
some of them used to say that the world
was flat some said that the world was
flat floating on the ocean
some say that the world was you know
round and spherical
so are of many many different notions
that they had truth and falsehood
how come the quran says in chapter
number 71 verse number three
that the the world is spherical
like a shape not the shape of a hand egg
but the shape of an
ostrich egg and that's how the the shape
of the world is
do we have any reports that because
obviously if you're sitting with people
and say you take their work now that
these people start to see that
you are uh uh people are starting to
admire your teachings and you're getting
some
some publicity and you're getting some
attention they're going to come out say
hey
hey hey hold on i taught you that did we
have people raising their hands and
saying like no no he got it from me
do we have any accounts of this in the
life of prophet muhammad peace and
blessings of allah be upon him there was
not a single person
not a single person unbeliever who
raised his hand and said
you know what you're saying in the quran
i already knew it
i taught you that i thought you did or i
knew it you know it's it's
found in this scripture none no one
raised their hand
and accused the prophet if they would
have done it islam would have been
dismantled so these are these are really
just silly arguments but obviously you
know they're worth touching upon because
for the sincere person
he kind of sees through this and and
this just confirms
with him to continue uh looking into
this because indeed i mean it's
overwhelming the amount of evidence that
proves that this is indeed
from the creator
