Let Us Reason - A Christian/muslim Dialogue

Al Fadi continues his discussion of the differences between the Samarqand manuscripts and the Cairo edition of the Quran. He emphasises the writing in the margins of the original manuscripts by the 1924 Cairo edition editor. He mentions that the Samarqand MSS only contains chapters 2:7-43:10 of the Quran only while the 1924 edition contains 114 chapters. He challenges listeners to investigate and study to see what he says is true for themselves.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Is the Samarqand manuscripts the earliest Qur'anic manuscripts? Who chose that MSS to be the original MSS? Do scholars agree that it is the 3rd kalif copy of the Quran? When compared with the Cairo edition ,1924, of the Quran, what are the apparent differences? How does that disagrees with the muslim claim of the preservation of the Quran? Al Fadi discusses all these issues and more . He also refers to the website; answering-islam.org for further information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Is the Quran really preserved? A Nov. 6th facebook post by Al Fadi discusses this question. The Samarqand MSS is among the earliest manuscripts dating to the 8th century. Yet the word Allah in Q 2:283 is not found in this MSS. He compares Q 2:283 in the: 1. Samarqand MSS. 2. The Cairo 1924 Quran 3. The English translation of the Quran. He poses the question; How can muslims claim that the Quran is Preserved and without any change?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi gives a brief introduction about the recent terrorist attack in NY city. He also discusses two facebook posts: 1. Nov. 1st;Why is Jesus superior even in the Quran?He talks about the passages that talks about Jesus' miracles and God's strengthening him. 2. Oct 30; Does the Islamic good deeds salvation work? Al explains how the Quran says that the good and bad deeds are going to be weighed on a scale on Judgment day in hope that the good outweigh the bad. This is the opposite of what the Bible teaches.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Yes, the Quran does confirm the miracles found in the gospels. Al Fadi explains the answer in his facebook post on Oct. 24th by creating a table that matches the references of the miracles in the four gospels and Suras 3:49 and 5 in the Quran. He also talks about three other posts: Oct. 23rd(David Wood, Is the Quran a scientific miracle?), Oct. 22nd (The Quran variant text readings revisited, part 1), and The Islamic Dilemma/ The supposed Qur'anic Eloquency.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi discusses the article on the importance of Sura 10: 94 of the Quran , and how Muhammad doubted himself of being a prophet of God. Also what that sura confirm about the Bible. Al also talks about two facebook posts; one on August 20 called contradictory apologetics, and the second the exact phraseology syndrome.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi discusses two Facebook posts: First; 9/29/17,"The Quran in Context"where he answers muslims by saying "whatever you do with the Bible by taking it out of context can easily be done with the Quran.

Al Fadi discusses a Facebook post about Bart Ehrman who Muslims like and think that he is destroying Christianity.

Al Fadi also talks about his own videos on the crucifixion and the many historical accounts even by non Christians(ie Pliny the Younger)See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi discusses the Facebook post dealing with Muhammad claim of visiting heaven. Even though Muslims accuses Paul of corrupting Christianity and not being an eyewitness of Jesus; It seems that their prophet copies Paul's experience in 2 Corinthians 12:2-4. Al also discusses the post: Eyewitness Paul vs Muhammad.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Muslims claim that a prophet like Moses in Deuteronomy 18:15 refers to Muhammad. Al Fadi refute this desperate attempt to find Muhammad mention in the Bible. He uses the gospel of John to do that. He also gives a comparison between Moses and Jesus.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi discusses an article by Sam Shamoun on Sura 10:94 and Muhammad's doubts. This Sura also tells Muhammad to ask the those who read the scripture before him; meaning the Jews and the Christians, which proves the truth of the Bible and that the Bible is superior to the Quran. Al also talks about the three top muslim contradictions(a facebook post Aug. 20).See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi continues to discuss some facebook posts in the series:" The Islamic Dilemma". How many times does the Bible use the phrase "It is written" ? How many times does the Quran use the same phrase? What are the reasons we know that Muhammad is not a prophet of God? " Where Does it Say This in the Quran "? is another facebook post that Al discusses.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

By using John 20: 17 when Jesus is telling Mary after his resurrection to go and tell his disciples that he is ascending to his Father and their Father and his God and their God; muslims try to prove that Jesus and God are not the same . By doing that they are getting themselves into a dilemma with the Quran that denies that God is the Father and that Jesus is his son(Q 5:18 and 9:30). listen to Al Fadi as he explains this dilemma.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi discusses some of his facebook(Alfadi.cira)posts: 1. A series of test your Islamic knowledge:a. Show us the real name of Jesus in the Quran.b. What is tawheed?c. Alfatiha/ the opener. Is it a verse revealed by God or is it a part of the chapter?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Brother Sam Shamoun discusses with Al Fadi the Quran's dilemma that admits that Jesus is a Word from Allah(sura 3: 45), but refuses to admit its implications; as John 1:1 declares Jesus is the word of God; creator, eternal, and the means of God's communication to us.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Brother Sam Shamoun explains how Jesus is called the word of God and a spirit of Him in the Quran, yet the Quran denies Jesus' sonship and eternal existence. Using the Quran claims and the Bible to prove that Jesus is both uncreated and eternal.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Why do Muslims believe that Deuteronomy 18:18 talks about Muhammad? Answering-Islam.org gives detailed answers for that. We can not take a verse out of context we have to read the whole chapter. Jesus was the only one that fulfilled that prophecy. Muhammad also failed to fulfill the following verse in Deuteronomy 18:20 which makes him to be a false prophet.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Using the post on 7/11/2017 on facebook, Al Fadi discusses the Muslims' claim that Muhammad is mentioned in the Bible. What Quranic verses Muslim think refers to Muhammad mentioned in the Bible?

Al shares about the new Youtube channel; https://www.youtube.com/cirainternational He continues to explain the post on facebook on 6/24 and 6/26/17 concerning the the Quranic dilemma of the different copies of the Quran and the different diacritical markings which gives the words different meaning depending on where do you put the markings. What century where these markings invented? How many copies of the Quran do we have today? Which one does the muslim claim is preserved in heaven?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Brother Sam Shamoun shares from Psalm 2 the fulfillment of the prophecy about the Messiah; the son of God; the king over all the nations and kings. We can not serve and honor God without honoring His Son. John 5:32-33, Daniel 7:13-14, and Mark 14:61-62 confirms Psalm 2. He also compares and contrasts what the Quran accepts and denies about the Messiah, Son of God, and Eternal King overall.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
