Islam - Arabic

To ask whether I can do better than Allah is pretty stupid considering I never implied I could. You are absolutely correct about programming languages having flaws but my argument wasn�t if the Qu�ran had a flaw or not! The point I was trying to make is Arabic was spoken before the Prophet Mohammad�s birth, A time when the Arab tribes were worshiping pagan Gods! God chose Mohammad because he was the right man to do the Job! Allah didn�t teach Mohammed a new holy language, Allah communicated to him through the language he already knew which was �Arabic�. To say Arabic is scientifically the most precise and perfect language would need some real study! If your point is the Qu�ran is perfect because Allah created it then you would have a point. But please bear in mind, If Allah created the Qu�ran in any language i.e. Zulu, French or English it would still be perfect because God can make things that are impossible - possible!

Actually, every Muslim here can bear witness that when I said, "If you think you can do better than Allah, then let us see you write a book that can compare to the Holy Quran. And if you cannot, then write just one chapter that compares. And if you cannot, and you surely cannot, then know Allah is God and there is no God beside Him.", that I was quoting from Allah's arguement that he gave to Muhammad (saw) to defeat the arguements of his enemies.

Your problem is not with me. You are really angry with Allah over how He decided to write His Book. So, go and fight against Allah if you want to. I will not fight over you over this.

For you is what you earn, and for me is what I earn.

If you choose Islam for yourself, good for you.

Best of luck.

Questions are a natural phenomena when wanting to know information on a religion, that shouldn�t offend you blond. It doesn�t mean I want a fight with you or Allah! If you cannot answer my question blond then please just say you can�t.

Don�t tell me Arabic is the most precise language known to man kind without any evidence except the Koran! Like I said, God can make any book precise through any language! Asking me whether I can write a better book than the Koran is nonsense, the Koran whether you believe it or not will always be unique book through the end of time.

I will ask you a question do you think you could write a better book than the bible? Well it�s obvious you can�t, so is that proof for you to become a Christian? I thought not. Everybody on this board has answered my questions and there points have been valid, yours however are not! When answering questions please Don�t compare me to God, and Don�t tell me the Koran is proof! Just answer the question and if not move along.

Thanks

I think we are missing a very important point here. We are only required to recite the Glorious Qur'an in Arabic in Salah. The most important pillar after Shahadah is Salah which we pray five times daily. The beauty of Salah is that any Muslim can perform his Salah in any Masjid anywhere in the world and it will be the same as if he was performing his Salah in his own local Masjid.

Once each nationality start substituting the Qur'an recitation in their local language the unity is gone.

During the pilgrimage season in what language will u want the Imam to perform the prayers. There are millions of people speaking millions of languages and the languages in turn have zillion dialect so what language does the Imam choose. What chaos?  

The Qur'an is the binding force that unites the Muslim into one Ummah.  It is the duty of each and every Muslim to learn its translation in his own language to understand and implement the teachings.

During Salah is the only time we are required to recite the Glorious Qur'an in Arabic. The rest of the time we can read translations along side the Arabic text.  The Glorious Qur'an was revealed in Arabic by Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala to His last Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu 'Alayhi wa Sallam) and He has instructed us to pray this way. It is that simple.
