• Thus, what our Prophet Muhammad s.a,w. received was not something new - as this phenomena had already occurred before him.

ALLAH HAS COMMUNICATED TO MANKIND THROUGH REVELATION


• Thus, what our Prophet Muhammad s.a,w. received was not something new - as this phenomena had already occurred before him.

• Thus those, termed the “People of the Book” amongst those of Abrahamic line i.e. the Jews and Christians, would be the independent parties than can corroborate - not deny but confirm this.




• Why a subsequent book of revelation is required is because:

[1]Mankind is evolving towards a higher form of civilization – a global cosmopolitan era, thus their laws need to be gradually given;





[2] the recordings of earlier Books did not survive fully intact but were corrupted.





[2] the recordings of earlier Books did not survive fully intact but were corrupted.

[3] Literacy, appropriate technology of writing & printing on a mass-scale etc. was not available until much later.

56

• It is a collection of writings.• Generally it contains recordings of the

history of the Jewish people. Written and re-written by scribes (especially when the Jews lost these during their enslavement by Persians and Romans or because the recordings tended to fade).

The Bible ...… some facts.The Bible ...… some facts.


57

• The name “Bible” is not found in the Bible.• This term “Bible” comes from the Greek

work “Biblion” which means “collection of writings or book”.

• The total number of books that make up the Bible differ between the Catholic’s (they have 73 books) and Protestant Christian’s (only accept 66 books).



58

• It can be divided into 2 parts:Old testament – Jewish writings written originally in Hebrew, compiled over a period of 2,000 years; many of its authors are unknown.New Testament – the oldest manuscripts written in Koine Greek (not Aramaic which was the language that Jesus spoke), comprise of the 4 Gospels and letters written by Paul and others.



59

• The most popular Bible e.g. the King James (the Authorized version) and the Latin Vulgate in used was based on an ancient text. Since then, they have discovered more ancient texts, and Christian biblical scholars have to revise their Bible to ensure accuracy. And they admit that there has been interpolations done to the Bible.



60

• Their admission:

“Yet the King James version has serious defects. ….. And discovery of many biblical manuscripts more ancient than those on which the King James version was based made it apparent that these defects were so many as to call for a revision.”

(Forward in the New Revised Standard version of the Bible)



61

• It may contain words of prophets; some eye-witness or even hearsay accounts of what had happened; it may contain quotations of perhaps revelations from God; it may contain interpretations and interpolations of people regarding the religion; etc.

• Biblical scholars admit that many were written by anonymous (unknown) person or persons; sometimes conveniently attributed to certain prophets.

Summary : what is the Bible?


62

• The Gospels (according to Mark, Mathew, Luke and John) are not the same as what we Muslims refer to as the “Injeel” of Prophet Jesus a.s.

• The Pentateuch (first 5 Books said to be the book of Moses : the Torah) is not the same as what we Muslims refer to as the “Taurat” of Prophet Moses a.s.



63

• The Psalm (of David) is not the same as what we Muslims refer to as the “Zabur” of Prophet David a.s.

• As the collections called the Bible have been tampered with and interpolations made by people, we cannot be certain of its total reliability and authenticity.

• For Muslims, the Qur’an is the “Furqaan” (Criterion to determine what for us, is the Truth and what is not).



64

• Revisions have been made to the Bible when a much older manuscripts were found. Still these manuscripts are not those dated to the time of Jesus a.s. (because these were written in Greek, whereas Jesus a.s. never spoke Greek but Aramaic).



65

So when we Muslims say we Believe in the Taurat, Zabur and Injeel, we do not mean we believe in the Bible!


66

• Only the Qur’an has remained the only Only the Qur’an has remained the only authentic Book of revelations from Allah, authentic Book of revelations from Allah, still preserved exactly as it was still preserved exactly as it was “recited”, in the original language as “recited”, in the original language as when it was revealed.when it was revealed.

So when we Muslims say we Believe in the Taurat, Zabur and Injeel, we do not mean we believe in the Bible!
