Your argument remains meaningless . I'll make it short : Sunnah is the revelation of Allah . End of the story . When I believe in Quran and follow it , I am OBLIGED to obey it when it tells me to obey the prophet peace upon him .
Where is your proof that sunnah is a revelation from Allah? None.
You have NOT made a counter argument against the verse that defeats the sunnah being a revelation of Allah. I will re-state. I ask that you prove me wrong--which you continuously fail to do.
Quran 45:6 "These are God's revelations (Quran) that We recite to you truthfully. In which statement other than God and His revelations (Quran) do they believe?" THESE are God's revelation that gets RECITED to you. So in what statement other than God and his revelation (Quran) will you believe?
Does this verse leave any room for the sunnah or does it make it clear that the Quran is the only statement you are to believe in?
If you reject the teachings of the prophet because you want a filthy animal like a dog in your house then that's your own bloody problem . And unlike you , when we don't understand something , WE ASK ! In your case , arrogance and worship of your so called "logic" forbid you to do so . If a narration doesn't narrate an order from the prophet or a teaching , then it narrates incidents and writes them down including his high morals and ethics . What does that mean ? It means the Islamic nation doesn't cherrypick its history .
And no one , I say NO ONE here deserted Quran except you . I can almost bet you don't read it at all except when you want to misquote and lie about it to support your ideologies . YET another cheap - pathetic - attempt to corrupt the other's picture . And you talk about that Homing nonsense ?!
They are NOT teachings of the prophet. The prophet is forbidden to teach anything besides the Quran. You have read the verses I present and made no counter-arguments. That is when we KNOW that you are the one failing to grasp Allah's message.
I think it is over brother, You have lost. No arguments made, just more rants. I think there is a level of arrogance that you can meet where it is just hopeless for you. I'm truly sorry you are failing Allah's test.
I will ask again, present Quranic verses that validate the sunnah (another source of law/revelation). I know you won't because no such verses exist. Like I said, it is hopeless for you. You have 2 options:
1.) Leave your arrogance aside and accept Allah and the Quran
2.) Continue persisting arrogantly and await your humiliating punishment (just as 45:8)
4:115 And whoever opposes the Messenger after guidance has become clear to him and follows other than the way of the believers - We will give him what he has taken and drive him into Hell, and evil it is as a destination.
A whole nation cannot be misguided . If you say it can , then your opponent isn't just that nation , the companions , and the prophet peace upon him , not at all , your opponent is the almighty himself . So take your Argumentum ad populum and shove it down the nearest toilet .
Let me ask you this, Who is opposing the messenger? You or me? The messenger never gave another source of law, because Allah said the only source is the Quran.
And a again a whole nation can be misguided. you are again making the argumentum ad populum fallacy. If you cannot accept logical fallacies and tell me to shove it down the toilet, then that when I know you are either too arrogant to accept the reality or remain irrational.
A fallacios argument does not give you any credit.
Secondly, a whole nation WILL be misguided as the Quran informs us:
The Messenger will say, my Lord, my people have deserted this Qur’an. (25:30)As I had said before, it is hopeless for you. There is no way out of this, you have to face the reality that the sunnah is not Allah's revelation and the nation currently is misguided.
My opponent is that nation. That sick, twisted, corrupted nation that calls itself submitters to Allah. What a shame. Shame on you, shame on every sunni, shia and all the other cults. This nation you are following is NOT the ummah of the prophet.
99.99% against 0.01% . A losing battle .
Argument from popularity fallacy.
And what deludes you that YOU are right in your explanations ? Here we are , every freaking nobody opens his/her mouth and rant nonsense following YOUR line of thought . These are the same people who say a woman can wear a bikini in public , these are the same who say one can follow Judaism or Christianity and go to heaven . Using your twisted logic , you have no right object . You keep ranting how God will explain Quran to you . As if Allah the almighty would talk to you personally and make revelations to you that he didn't to his prophet ! Exalted he is from what you describe ! That's one the dubmest and lamest excuses I've ever heard ! Any bloody person can explain things however he bloody wants with that !! That is why there is a need for people of knowledge . This is a basic common sense for any field of knowledge in life . I wouldn't bring an ironsmith to fix my TV , neither am I gonna bring a joiner to fix the kitchen sink . That said , we DEFINITELY won't let some unknown nobodies talk whatever they want about Quran and Sunnah .
Twisted logic, I'm not committing logical fallacies and continue to commit them even after I know they were fallacies, pal.
Secondly, your underlined statement above means that you reject that Allah guides us? Really? Is that how low you can go? -->Especially when Allah said that HE will also explain the Quran? You rejecting Allah's words?
So your argument is that the prophet had to explain the Quran to everyone, even us. Well this argument falls flat on its face! Let me further show you how bad your argument is:
(Please please slowly read the entire thing-
I expect a counter-argument for this!)
While it is correct to state that the messengers duty was not restricted to merely reciting the Qur’an to his people, as is evident by the words:
"...He will give them the knowledge of the Book ..." (2:129), it is also an incontestable fact that the books of traditions that are upheld by varous sects and attributed to the messenger, do not contain the explanation of each and every verse of the Qur’an. What exists in those compilations are some ascribed paradoxical reports limited to certain verses only. No book of tradition contains the complete commentary and explanation of the Qur’an from Surah Al-Fatiha, the first chapter to Surah An-Naas, the last chapter, that it could attribute to the messenger of Allah.
This being the case, the question arises that how did the messenger confer the knowledge of the Book of Allah to his audience? And where can we find those explanations? The Qur’an provides us the adequate answer to these questions of extreme importance.
Allah informs us that His Book has been kept independent of all sorts of traditions for its exegesis, by indicating that the Qur’an is its own commentary.
The Qur'an is not like an ordinary book, such that most other books discuss a specific topic at one place and have their subjects compiled and bifurcated within specific chapters.
Unlike this, the Book of Allah has its topics spread out throughout itself within various chapters. For example, if we were to ascertain as to what Allah's Book says about the topic of divorce we find verses dealing with the subject of divorce in Surah Al-Baqara which is the second Surah (chapter) of the Qur'an, Surah Al Nisa the fourth Chapter , then in Surah Al Ahzaab the thirty third chapter and further in Sura At Tal'aaq which is the sixty fifth chapter of the Qur'an.
By compiling all the verses about the topic of divorce as discussed in all the locations of the Qur'an we come to know what the Book of Allah has to say about this subject. And we observe that each verse clarifies and explains the other. It is by this manner that Allah Himself has dealt with different subjects in His Book, i.e. by repeating topics in various chapters throughout the Qur'an. The manner of exegesis is <Tasreef ul Ayaat> or recurrence and repetition of subjects within the Qur’anic verses, and it is by this method that the Book of Allah deals with various topics and provides its own explanation. We are reminded:
<unzur kaifa nusarriful a_ya_ti la'allahum yafqahu_n>
"See how We repeat the verses that they may understand." (6:65)
<Wa laqad sarrafna_ lin na_si fi ha_zal qur'a_ni min kulli masal(in), fa aba_ aksarun na_si illa_ kufu_ra>
"And certainly We have repeated for mankind in this Quran, every kind of similitude, but the majority of mankind do not consent to aught but denying." (17:89)
Allah Himself has circulated topics within His Book, and what is unclear at one passage is made distinct by another verse in another passage within the Qur’an itself. One verse will throw light on the other. Furthermore we are informed that the messenger of Allah also explained the Qur’an by the Qur’an itself:
<Wa kaza_lika nusarriful a_ya_ti wa liyaqu_lu_ darasta wa linubayyinahu_ liqaumiy ya'lamu_n>
"And thus do We repeat the verses and that they may say: You have read; and that We may make it clear to a people who know." (6:108)
It is evident from the above that the messenger’s lectures on the Qur’an were based on <tasreef_ul_ayat>, i.e. recurrence of Ayat, to clarify topics within the Qur’an. The messenger gave Dars ul Qur-an, by this manner, and the Qur’an was clarified by the Qur’an itself. This is further supported in Surah Al-Furqan, where a certain objection of the unbelievers is identified:
<Wa qa_lal lazina kafaru_ lau la_ nuz zila alaihil qur a_nu jumlataw wa_hidah kaza_lika linusab bita bihi fu a_daka wa rat talna_hu tartila_Wa la_ yatu_naka bimasalin il la_ jina_ka bil haq qi wa ahsana tafsira>
"The unbelievers say: "Why is not the Qur'an revealed to him all at once? Thus (is it revealed gradually) that We may strengthen thy heart thereby and We have rehearsed it to thee in slow well-arranged stages gradually. And no example do they bring to thee but We bring to thee the truth and the best explanation." (25:32-33)
The above verses inform us about a matter of grave importance. To the objection of unbelievers as to why is not the Qur’an revealed all at once, it is stated that the Qur’an is revealed in stages due to the following reasons:
1.) So that the messengers heart may be strenghtened. This is confirmed when it is stated: "Thus (is it revealed gradually) that We may strengthen thy heart thereby and We have rehearsed it to thee in slow well-arranged stages gradually." Hence the messenger was encouraged and enjoined to be stead fast by the revelation of Qur’anic verses.
2.) So that the arguments that the unbelievers may bring forth should be answered sufficiently by ‘Haqq’, i.e. the Qur’anic truth. As it is stated: "And no example do they bring to thee but We bring to thee the truth.."
3.) The third reason for the gradual descent of the Qur’an is to provide <Ahsan_ul_Tafsir>, i.e. the best explanation and exegesis of Allah’s Book.
<Wa la_ yatu_naka bimasalin il la_ jina_ka bil haq qi wa ahsana tafsira>
"And no example do they bring to thee but We bring to thee the truth and the best ‘Tafsir’ (exegesis)" (25:33)
Thus Allah revealed verses which provided Tafsir of other verses themselves. What remained ambigous in one verse, its clarification and exegesis was provided by
Allah Himself by the gradual descent of other verses of the Qur’an. Hence Allah provided the Tafsir of the Qur’an by the Qur’an itself, and did not make His Book dependent on any compilations of traditions for its exegesis. It is by this manner that Allah gave the Tafsir of His Book to the messenger and the messenger inturn conveyed to his audience. The messenger did not give any separate book of Tafsir to the Ummah as the Tafsir of the Qur’an which he imparted on the Ummah was contained inside the pages of the Qur’an itself.
While it is identified that the Qur’an explains its self by repetition of verses, we are also instructed to ponder and reflect on Allah’s Book, for the message of the Qur’an will be evident to those who will strive to comprehend its meaning and conduct research on it. It is mentioned that those who will use their faculties of understanding and engage in an inquiry into the meaning of the divine message, for them the Qur’anic verses will be rendered plain:
"Thus do We make the verses distinct for a people who reflect." (10:24)
"Indeed We have made the verses distinct for a people who will utilize their understanding." (6:98)
Along with stating the above, we are also advocated to ponder and reflect on the Book:
"A Book We have revealed to you abounding in good that they may ponder over its verses, and that those endowed with understanding may be mindful." (38:29)
Thus the injunction to reflect and ponder over the Book has been given for all generations, so that in the light of divine guidance they seek the solutions to the problems of their times. The meaning of the Qur’an will be made clear by the repetition of verses and likewise people are asked to use their abilities of reason and intellect to understand the Qur’an. The following verses shed further light in stating that the meaning of Allah’s Book will be evident by <Tasreef ul Ayat> and it is in this manner that Qur’an should be understood:
" See how We repeat the verses that they may understand." (6:65)
"See how We repeat the verses, yet they turn away (from the truth rendered by recurrence of Ayat)." (6:46)
Note: the word for 'repeat' is also correctly translated as 'explain'. So if Allah explains the verses in the Quran through the Quran, is there really a need to follow the prophet's explanation of the Quran? All we need to do is read the Quran to understand it! We don't need another revelation to understand it.
It is Allah, who is the ‘Mufasir’ i.e commentator of the Qur’an, and the Tafsir of one verse was provided by the revelation of other verses which would throw light on the subject under discussion. Thus it is said:
"Ar-Rahmaan (The Beneficent God). It is He who teaches the Qur’an." (55:1-2)
Not only was the revelation, compilation and protection of the Book taken up by Allah himself, but also its
explanation. As we are informed:
"Do not move your tongue with this (Qur'an) to make haste with it. Surely on Us (devolves) the collecting of it and the reciting of it. Therefore when We have recited it, follow its recitation. Again on Us (devolves) the explaining of it." (75:16-19)
Here Allah relieves the prophet from explaining the Quran and says the duty is on Allah.
Hence it is Allah who provides the Tafsir of His Book by <Tasreef ul Ayat>, that is, by repetition of verses.
I hope I made it clear to you.
In hopes of making it even more clear, I have one more verse you need to read:
"We know best what they say, and you are not one to compel them; therefore remind him by means of the Quran who fears My Promise." (50:45)Thus Allah commands the messenger to admonish people by the Qur’an, and the messenger confirms himself that his mission is "Admonishing with the Qur’an",
not any other book! cause I'm not a scholar or someone qualified , I do have a hard time calling you "Kafir" . Somone ignorant of anything of the sort would just rant whatever he wants however . So go ahead and call the majority of Muslims through the entire history as that , that's when I won't hesitate to say that your act is "Kufr" .
I know you do brother, it is because I am following the Quran. I have no issue with calling anyone a kaffir if they reject even ONE quranic verse.
FALSE . The nineteeth sign of Al-an'am is as follows :
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 [truly] testify that with Allah there are other deities?" Say, "I will not testify [with you]." Say, "Indeed, He is but one God, and indeed, I am free of what you associate [with Him]."
It says that Quran is a revelation . It doesn't say there is no other revelation with it . Do you understand the joke now ?
Aha! The whay is defined as the Quran! Not the sunnah! What is the wahy? the Quran. Why would Allah neglect to mention the sunnah if we were to follow it? In fact, WHERE in the Quran did Allah mention this alleged other source of revelation/law besides the Quran?
Plus did you forget about the other verses that state that the Quran is fully detailed, and that we are only to follow THESE verses??
So back to my argument:
'Also, the next verse 53:4 says that what he speaks is nothing but wahy - revelation. And wahy is defined in 6:19 as the Quran."
Is wahy defined anywhere in the Quran as the sunnah or just as the Quran? Wahy is defined as the Quran. Especially when the Quran is the only source of law as defined in 6:114 and 45:6?
The wahy that the prophet received is the Quran. did the Quran say there is another wahy?? We both know it didn't. Wahy is therefore defined as the Quran.
The messenger of Allah is ordered to deliver what has been revealed on him. . Now what are those divine teachings and laws that are revealed on the messenger? The following verses clarify as to what consists of "what has been revealed to you".
"And We have revealed the Book to you which has the clear
explanation of everything, and a guidance and mercy and good news for those who submit." (16:89)
Thus it is the Book of Allah which contains the clarity for all matters requiring guidance, that has been revealed on the messenger. In Surah An-Nisa, the divine teaching received by the messenger is again identified as:
"Surely We have revealed the Book to you with the truth that you may judge between people by means of that which Allah has shown you; and be not an advocate on behalf of the treacherous." (4:105)
Once again it is the book of Allah which has been identified as the divine teaching which has been bestowed upon the messenger and through which the messenger himself is to judge people.
"And We have revealed to you the Book with the truth, verifying what is before it of the Book and a guardian over it, therefore judge between them by what Allah has revealed, and do not follow their low desires
(to turn away) from the truth that has come to you;" (5:48)
It is confirmed that the messenger received the Book of Allah and he is to govern among people by Allah’s Book and he cannot deviate the slightest bit from the Qur’an. Now it has been confirmed by the above and many other verses in the Qur’an that the messenger has received the Book of Allah as divine teaching. Now what is that teaching that the messenger is to pass on to people, through which they are admonished by him? What is this book?
So what is this book? In 6:19, we learn it is the Quran.
"Allah is witness between you and me; and this Quran has been revealed to me that with it I may warn you and whomsoever it reaches." (6:19)The book, the revelation that the prophet Muhammad received is the QURAN.
In all these instances, Allah did not mention another revelation besides the Quran (the book). So HOW can you possibly assert that there is another revelation the prophet received besides the Quran!!! The only wahy is therefore the Quran, the book.
Then why do you fail in writing the signs ? Or maybe you fear you'll be exposed ?
16:44 [We sent them] with clear proofs and written ordinances. And We revealed to you the message that you may make clear to the people what was sent down to them and that they might give thought.
6:114 [Say], "Then is it other than Allah I should seek as judge while it is He who has revealed to you the Book explained in detail?" And those to whom We [previously] gave the Scripture know that it is sent down from your Lord in truth, so never be among the doubters.
Looking at the first or the second sign , you can't claim that it denies there is a revelation with Quran that explains it for people .
There is
NO revelation with the Quran that explains it for people. What there is is the prophet making evident/clear the the people that the Quran was sent down to them and he would preach the Quran through ONLY the Quran. He would not add anything to the book that is fully detailed and the ONLY source of law.
The prophet explained to the people what the Quran wants them to do. Let me give you an example.
A man goes to the prophet and asks him how to do wudu for Salat, so the prophet would show him that by reading 5:6 to him, so the prophet SHOWED him what the Quran says, this is the meaning of 16:44 .... The prophet did not guide the man, for if the man does not accept the Quran there is nothing the prophet can do, he cannot guide anyone, he can only show them what the Quran tells them to do.
All the prophet did was teach the man what the Quran requires him to do. A failing attempt . You claim you explain Quran with Quran and that's a laughable lie . What about THIS sign ?
42:51 And it is not for any human being that Allah should speak to him except by revelation or from behind a partition or that He sends a messenger to reveal, by His permission, what He wills. Indeed, He is Most High and Wise.
So in or out , the prophet peace upon him explains the noble Quran for people .
Did I reject that the prophet explains the noble Quran for people? I said the prophet and Allah had that role.
I stated that the prophet explains the Quran and DOES NOT add anything to the Quran. He does not make a sunnah or a way of life or other commandments other than the Quran--this is because the Quran is the only source of law.
Secondly, if you look at that verse you stated--the messenger is not the only mechanism in which Allah can explain the Quran because another mechanism is using a partition.
If someone asks him how to do wudu, the prophet would recite the Quran and tell them exactly what it says without adding anything to the Quran--since the Quran is the only source of law
And where did you bring THAT from ? How could you know that he used to do this when someone asks him ? How could you know there was a man named Muhammad to begin with ? In or out , you'll have to admit that you need Sunnah to view history . And I would like to see you bringing the way Muslims perform it from Quran . Oh right , we are all doomed to hellfire because you said so .
The Quran. The prophet can not add his own teaching to the Quran. That means he cannot add more steps to the wudu. He can only show them the steps in the Quran. This of course, rejects the sunnah.
Then say it flat out . You follow a religion other than Islam so don't call yourself a Muslim ! It is finally revealed . We are no "brothers" . This is a clear fight between right and wrong , belief and disbelief ! Your insanity reached a level of claiming everyone except you and the likes are destined to hell . There is no word to explain this . Ignoranc was a thing , arrogance was a thing , but this , this madness , this outrageous madness , it leaves no room for doubt , you , are an enemy of Allah and his prophet . And I don't show a shred of holding back in battles against such enemies .
Am I the one claiming it, or is Allah almighty telling you that the nation of Islam will be all wrong and most of them will be destined to a punishment.
The Messenger will say, my Lord, my people have deserted this Qur’an. (25:30)It is a clear fight between right and wrong. Absolutely. You just have realize who is wrong here. Your corrupted tradition that the prophet received another source of law besdies the Quran (which contradicts the Quran).
Now I would support you as a Muslim if you stated that:
1.) The prophet did not add anything to the Quran when explaining it--he just showed people what the Quran requires them to do
2.) The ONLY source of law is the Quran and both the prophet and Allah had a duty in explaining it
Once you support these 2 points, you have to reject the Sunnah (the other source of law besides the Quran)--which means you have to reject all the extra laws that are not found in the Quran.
Once you support these 2 points, you become a Muslim.
It is important that you take these Quranic words seriously brother, for your own soul,
do not turn a blind eye to the words of God in the Quran.
Why is it so difficult to believe all the words of God which I showed you?
Do you want to be sorry on Judgement day and say I wish I did not let my ego blind me from the truth?
I am here to help you as a brother and a friend, but I cannot do so unless you decide to believe the Quran.
I hope you find yourself on the right path.
