Chapter 1
First words and history of hadith
[Quran 25:30] And said the Messenger, "O my Lord! Indeed, my people have deserted this Quran."
Statistics shows that Islam is the fastest growing religion and gonna be the biggest religion in the world soon by passing the Christianity, then why Muhammad will say such a words at the day of judgement?
The followers of the Islamic sects tend to stick with non-Quranic fictions because they trust the scholars and the leaders highly and follow anything they say blindly without questioning them. that’s because majority of the followers don’t have Quran awareness and they think imams, sheikhs, ulamas, mufties, etc are so pious people and don’t make any mistake.
Sometimes they even go too far and believe the religious scholars never touch sin and even worse some sincere believers fall to the abyss of idolatry because of the hearts that long for goodness but adoring the God's creation and even asking their leaders to pray for them while they can pray themselves, the God is All Hearing and far from deaf and knows what’s hidden inside their chest.
For a long period of my life, I was thinking that Quran is not complete and we need Hadiths (narratives attibuted to Muhammad) to explain the details while the Quran denies this and rejects any Hadith other than itself and claims the Book itself is perfect, complete and fully detailed for religious purposes:
[Quran 45:6] These are the revelations of God, We recite them to you with the truth. So, in which Hadith (narrative) after God and His revelations do they believe?
[Quran 17:89] And We have dispatched to the people in this Quran from every example, but most of the people refuse to be anything but rejecters!
[Quran 6:114] "Shall I seek other than God as a judge when He has sent down to you the Book fully detailed?"
The religious scholars made the Hadith as priority and degrade Quran to be the second source of judge. They even go further and say whoever disbelieves in Hadith is Kafir (rejector) while the Quran claims those who reject the Quran are Kafir:
[Quran 5:44] And whoever does not judge with what God has sent down, then these are the rejecters (Kafirun).
If we need Hadith to understand Quran, why didn't prophet Muhammad add commentaries under Quran's pages? Actually the need for Hadith to understand Quran is equal to Quran being flawed, unclear, untrustworthy thereupon not from God which is against what the God claimed.
[16:89] And We have sent down to you the Book as a clarification for all things.
Do we need clarification for the Clarification of all things? Do we need flashlight to see the Sun?
Even gets worse, they say the average person has no right to talk about religion which contradicts the Quran that encourage every reader to use AQL (thinking, reasoning). they believe the average person don't understand Arabic and may go in the wrong path by relying on man-made translations which once again contradicts their action because they themselves rely on the man-made Hadiths as tools to translate and interpret it.
According to Historic books, the Hadiths are verbal narrations heard by the collectors more than 200 years after the Prophet Muhammad's Death and are recorded (basically Chinese whispers). I can’t remember what my father told me 5 years ago, how could they remember and preserve Hadiths in their head without any change after 200 years? It’s possible only if their brain turned into a computer memory.
More interestingly, Hadith books specially Sahih Bukhari the most authentic (according to men, not the God or the messenger) and the oldest hadith book, was edited, re-written and re-issued in numerous times after bukhari’s death till now. This fact increases the untrustworthiness of the books. The version we have today is based mostly on an Ottoman government sponsored critical edition.
We have no clear idea whether what’s the actual text Bukhari dictated, or penned, no one knows for sure. While it’s possible much of the current Sahih Bukhari matches what Bukhari himself authored, it’s utterly impossible to prove this.
Imam Muhammad Bukhari bin Ismail is the collector of the “Sahih (means “authentic”) Bukhari”:
Born: 14 Shawwal 194 AH, 21 July 810 AD
Died: 256 AH
Place of Birth: Bukhara (Persia)
* Bukhari claimed that he collected about 600,000 hadiths. He accepted 7275 hadiths and considered 592725 hadiths to be unprovable lies. In other words, 99% of what he collected was fabrications.
Imam Muslim ibn Hajjaj (collector of the “Sahih Muslim”):
Born: 206 AH, 821 AD
Died: 261 AH
Place of birth: Neshapur – Khorasan (Persia)
* Muslim collected 300,000 hadiths. He accepted 4000 and rejected 296,000, which means he found almost 99% lies.
Ibn Majah:
Died: 273 AH
Place of birth: Azwin (Persia)
* He collected 16000 hadiths, except for 4000 hadiths he considered the rest to be lies.
Imam Abu Dawood:
Place of birth: Sistan (Persia)
Died: 275 AH
* He collected 500,000 hadiths and except for 4800 hadiths, considered the rest (99%) as fake.
Tirmidhi
Place of Birth: Tirmidhi (Persia)
Died: 289 AH
* He collected 300,000 hadiths and accepted 3000 and rejected 99%.
Imam Nisa'i
Place of Birth: Persia
Died: 303 AH
* He collected 200,000 Hadith, accepted 4000 Hadith and rejected 98%.
This tells us how much corruption and lies has entered Islam through the back door or has tried to enter. All six people were from Iran and they were from fire-worshiping magus background who joined the Muslims in the guise of Islam and filled the religion with fictions and unauthorised man-made beliefs.
But let’s think logically about the huge number of 600,000 hadith of Bukhari. even if he walked around in the city at Arabia and asked people to narrate Hadith and wrote down 10 hadith everyday:
600,000 / 10 = 60,000 days 60,000 / 365 = 164 year
It gonna take 164 years to collect that amount, and he lived only 62 years. Let’s say he collected 20 hadith every day, that will take 82 years to collect 600,000 hadith. That means even if he started to collect hadith from the first day of his infancy, immediately just right after being born of his mother, he won’t be able to fulfill that job. Do you feel the smell of the fish? Why the people around Muhammad in Arabia didn’t collect and write down Hadiths if they were necessary at the first place and the people of Persia traveled to Arabia to do that? We will figure it out. Read this book to the end.
Chapter 2
Hadith Contradicts Quran
By studying and having Quran awareness we can easily find out that Hadiths fundamentally contradict the Quran in hundreds of different ways, creating an entirely different religion as opposed to what we learn from the Quran. Below are a few common and easy-to-understand examples of this (red is Hadith and green is Quran):
The Prophet said: "If somebody (a Muslim) discards his religion, kill him." (Sahih Bukhari Vol 4, Bk 52, No 260)

Allah said, "Return to him and tell him to put his hand on the back of an ox and for every hair that will come under it, he will be granted one year of life." Moses said, "O Lord! What will happen after that?" Allah replied, "Then death." Moses said, "Let it come now." (Sahih Bukhari 4:55:619)

Whoever this fictional Muhammad that Hadiths talks about is, seems like he didn’t read Quran and clearly was among the misguided. He can’t be the actual prophet Muhammad:
God: “O you who believe be champions for justice and witnesses for God even if it affects you personally or affects your parents or your near of kin” (4:135)
Sunna: Champion your brother whether he be an oppressor or an oppressed one (Sahih Bukhari 2444 & 46:5 & 3:43:624)
God: “you indeed cannot make the dead hear” (27:80)

God: “then God took them for their sins” (40:21)
Sunna: if you do not commit sins then God will take you and replace you with people who commit sins (Riyad Alsalihin 1874 & 19:3)

God: “say: indeed my salat, my sacrifice, my life and my death are for God the lord of all” (6:162)
Sunna: “Should I make all of my Salat for you o Muhamad?” He said: “Then your problems would be solved and your sins would be forgiven.” (Jami at-Tirmidhi 2457 & 37:43 & 4:11:2457)

God: “wasn’t it enough for them that we have sent down the Book to you and it being recited unto them” (29:51)

God: In what hadith after this do they believe? (77:50)
Sunna: The hadith of the prophet and his Sahaba
God: Say who forbade the adornment of God which he has brought forth for his servants? (7:32)

Sunna: And who turn from the way of Muhammad but he who fools Himself
God: “Then we have given the Book as inheritance to those whom we have chosen of our servants some of them wronged them selves others upheld it only part of the time while others were eager to work righteousness” (35:32)
Sunna: The Sahaba gave the Book as an inheritance, and every single one of them is righteous, and no one wronged himself
God: “A word of truth has issued from me that indeed I will fill up Hell with man and jinn all together” (32:13)
Sunna: God would place his foot in hell and hell would say ‘enough enough‘ (sahih muslim 2848a, Book 53 hadith 46, Book 40 hadith 6823)
[Quran 41:40-42] Those who distort Our revelations are not hidden from Us. Is one who is thrown into Hell better, or one who comes secure on the Day of Resurrection? Do whatever you wish; He is Seer of what you do. Those who have rejected the Reminder when it came to them; and it is an Honorable Book. No falsehood could enter it, presently or afterwards; a revelation from One Most Wise, Praiseworthy.
Chapter 3
Hadith contradicts Hadith
The scholars of the Hadith books says Hadiths are words of the messenger and consequently words of the God Himself because the messenger’s duty is delivering the words of the God. The Almighty says:
Then do they not reflect upon the Quran? If it had been from other than the God, they would have found within it much contradiction. [4:82]
so if the hadith books are from the God we shouldn’t find any contradictions in Hadith books:

Hadith attacks to character of the prophet
Quran says:
Indeed, you (Muhammad) are of a great moral character. [68:4]
Hadith says:
Muhammad is a torturer:
Narrated Abu Qilaba: Anas said, "Some people of 'Ukl or 'Uraina tribe came to Medina and its climate did not suit them. So the Prophet ordered them to go to the herd of (Milch) camels and to drink their milk and urine (as a medicine). So they went as directed and after they became healthy, they killed the shepherd of the Prophet and drove away all the camels. The news reached the Prophet early in the morning and he sent (men) in their pursuit and they were captured and brought at noon. He then ordered to cut their hands and feet (and it was done), and their eyes were branded with heated pieces of iron, They were put in 'Al-Harra' and when they asked for water, no water was given to them." (Sahih Bukhari 1:4:234 & Sahih Bukhari 7:71:590)
Muhammad is a plunderer:
The Prophet (sa) said, “My livelihood is under the shade of my spear, and he who disobeys my orders will be humiliated by paying Jizya.” Footnote: “Under the shade of my spear” means “from war booty”. (Sahih Bukhari 4:88)
Muhammad is a mass murderer:
The Jews were made to come down, and Allah’s Messenger imprisoned them. Then the Prophet went out into the marketplace of Medina, and he had trenches dug in it. He sent for the Jewish men and had them beheaded in those trenches. They were brought out to him in batches. They numbered 800 to 900 boys and men. (Ishaq 464 & Sahih Bukhari 5:59:362 & Muslim 19:4364)
Muhammad is a child abuser:
Narrated As-Saburah: The Prophet said: Command a boy to pray when he reaches the age of seven years. When he becomes ten years old, then beat him for prayer. (Abu Dawud 2:494 & 2:495)
Muhammad is a child killer:
Narrated by As-Sab bin Jaththama: The Prophet passed by me at a place called Al-Abwa or Waddan, and was asked whether it was permissible to attack the pagan warriors at night with the probability of exposing their women and children to danger. The Prophet replied, "They (i.e. women and children) are from them (i.e. pagans)." I also heard the Prophet saying, "The institution of Hima is invalid except for Allah and His Apostle." (Sahih Bukhari 4:52:256)
Muhammad is a wife beater:
narrated from Muhammad ibn Qays: that ‘Aa’ishah stated that the Prophet gave her a painful struck on her the chest, then he said, “Do you think that Allah and His Messenger would be unjust to you?” (Muslim 4:2127)
Muhammad is a male chauvinist:
Evil omen is in the women, the house and the horse.” (Sahih Bukhari 7:62:30 & 7:62:31 & 7:62:32)
Muhammad is a cross-dresser:
Then the Prophet said to her (Um Salama): Do not hurt me with Aisha, for the inspiration did not come upon me when I was in a women’s garment (fee thawb imra’ah) except that of Aisha. (Sahih Bukhari 2393)
Muhammad is a hypocrite:
The Messenger of Allah forbade facing the Qiblah when urinating. But I saw him, one year before he died, facing the Qiblah (while urinating). (Ibn Majah 1:325:1)
Muhammad is an aggressor:
God’s Messenger said: “I have been ordered (by Allah) to fight against the people until they testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is Allah’s Apostle, and offer the prayers perfectly and give the obligatory charity, so if they perform that, then they save their lives and property from me except for Islamic laws and then their reckoning (accounts) will be done by Allah.” (Sahih Bukhari 1:2:24)
Muhammad orders to burn people alive and houses:
Allah’s Messenger sent us in a mission (i.e. an army-unit) and said, “If you find so-and-so and so-and-so, burn both of them with fire.” When we intended to depart, Allah’s Messenger said, “I have ordered you to burn so-and-so and so-and-so, and it is none but Allah Who punishes with fire, so, if you find them, kill them.” (Sahih Bukhari 4:52:259)
The Prophet said, “Certainly I decided to order the Mu’adh-dhin (call-maker) to pronounce Iqama and order a man to lead the prayer and then take a fire flame to burn all those who had not left their houses so far for the prayer along with their houses.” (Sahih Bukhari 1:11:626)
Muhammad promotes rape of female captives of war:
We got female captives in the war booty and we used to do coitus interruptus with them. So we asked Allah’s Messenger about it and he said, “Do you really do that?” repeating the question thrice, “There is no soul that is destined to exist but will come into existence, till the Day of Resurrection.” (Sahih Bukhari 7:62:137)
Narrated Buraida: The prophet sent Ali to Khalid to bring the Khumus ((one fifth) of the booty) and I hated Ali, and Ali had taken a bath (after a sexual act with a slave girl from the Khumus). I said to Khalid, “Don’t you see this (i.e. Ali)?” When we reached the prophet I mentioned that to him. He said, “O Buraida! Do you hate Ali?” I said, “Yes” He said, “Do you hate him, for he deserves more than that from the Khumus.” (Sahih Bukhari 5:59:637)
Muhammad is a sex maniac:
The Prophet used to pass by (have sexual relation with) all his wives in one night, and at that time he had nine wives. (Sahih Bukhari 7:62:142)
Anas bin Malik said: “The Prophet used to visit all his wives in a round, during the day and night and they were eleven in number.” I asked Anas, “Had the Prophet the strength for it?” Anas replied, “We used to say that the Prophet was given the strength of thirty (men).” (Sahih Bukhari 1:5:268)
Whenever someone draws a caricature of prophet Muhammad or insults him, sectarians attack or jail or kill them but those hypocrites don’t at least burn their own hadith books, the books that are filled with lies and insults to the character of the prophet and the main source for the motivation of all those non-Muslim Insulters.
[Sahih Bukhari 278] The Prophet said, 'The people of 'Bani" Israel used to take bath naked 'all together' looking at each other. The Prophet Moses used to take a bath alone. They said, 'By God! Nothing prevents Moses from taking a bath with us except that he has a scrotal hernia.' So once Moses went out to take a bath and put his clothes over a stone and then that stone ran away with his clothes. Moses followed that stone saying, "My clothes, O stone! My clothes, O stone! till the people of Bani Israel saw him and said, 'By God, Moses has got no defect in his body. Moses took his clothes and began to beat the stone." Abu Huraira added, "By God! There are still six or seven marks present on the stone from that excessive beating.

[Riyad as-Saliheen 18:181 & Sunan an-Nasa'i, 5222] The Prophet said, "The bell is one of the musical instruments of the Devil." & The angels do not enter a house in which there is a small bell, or a bell, and the angels do not accompany groups of people who have bells with them.'"

"

In our real life when someone lies to us once, the trust is gone and we will always consider that the person is capable of telling lies and won’t take him seriously anymore. These nasty liar narrators also narrated some other cool events but how can we trust them? We can’t. We don’t actually know if they are telling the truth. In fact they even admit it themselves:
[Sahih Bukhari 5355] Narrated Abu Huraira: "The Prophet said, 'The best alms is that which is given when one is rich, and a giving hand is better than a taking one, and you should start first to support your dependents.' A wife says, 'You should either provide me with food or divorce me.' A slave says, 'Give me food and enjoy my service." A son says, "Give me food; to whom do you leave me?" The people said, "O Abu Huraira! Did you hear that from Allah's Messenger?" He said, "No, it is from my pouch."
The scholars were shy and intentionally didn’t translate the Arabic word “کیس/pouch” in their websites. They conceal ridiculous Hadiths just like that sometimes.
Some of the narrators were even trying to sell their own goods by using Muhammad’s fame attributing lies to him for advertisement shamelessly:
[Sahih Bukhari, 5445 & 5768] God's Apostle said, "He who eats seven 'Ajwa dates every morning, will not be affected by poison or magic on the day he eats them."
[Sahih Bukhari 5688] I heard God's Apostle saying, "There is healing in black cumin for all diseases except death."
[Quran 31:6-7] And from the people, there are those who will purchase a baseless Hadith with which to mislead from the path of God without knowledge, and to make it a mockery. These will have a humiliating retribution. And when Our revelations are recited to him, he turns away arrogantly as if he did not hear them, as if there is a deafness in his ears. So give him tidings of a painful retribution.
Chapter 5
Quran prohibits Hadith
Now that we have a good awareness about Hadiths, let’s see if the God authorizes any second source of judge for religious matters:
[Quran 45:6] These are the revelations of God, We recite them to you with the truth. So, in which hadith (narrative) after God and His revelations do they believe?
[Quran 16:89] We have revealed to you this book to provide explanations for everything.
[Quran 7:185] Which hadith, beside this, do they believe in?
[Quran 12:111] This is not fabricated hadith; this (Quran) confirms all previous scriptures, provides the details of everything, and is a beacon and mercy for those who believe.
[Quran 77:50] Which hadith, other than this, do they uphold?
[Quran 6:114] Shall I seek other than God as a source of judge, when He has revealed to you this book fully detailed? [Quran 6:38] We did not leave anything out of this book.
[Quran 68:36-39] What is wrong with your logic? Do you have another book to uphold? in it you can choose whatever you like?
Unfortunately sectarians have another books (Sahih Bukhari, Al kafi, etc) to uphold beside Quran and in them they choose whatever they like and call it “Sahih/Authentic”. As we clearly see Quran prohibits hadith books and claims that Quran only by itself completed our religion a long time before the invention of Hadith books, 200 years before Bukhari, at the time of prophet Muhammad:
[5:3] Today I have perfected your religion/Din for you, and completed My blessings upon you, and I have approved submission/Islam as the system for you.
As we can see, the God didn’t ask us to wait for Bukhari to come 200 years later and complete our religion for us.
Chapter 6
Hadith prohibits Hadith
Even though we don’t need Hadiths to guide us and show the way, the God’s clear words are enough. But just for fun you better know that according to Hadith prophet Muhammad and the four caliphs were Hadith rejectors! Crazy! Isn’t it?
1) It was narrated from Abu Sa’eed al-Khudri that the Messenger of Allah said:
“Do not write anything from me; whoever has written anything from me other than the Quran, let him erase it and narrate from me, for there is nothing wrong with that.” (Narrated by Muslim, al-Zuhd wa’l-Raqaa’iq, 5326 & Ahmad, vol 1, page 171)
2) Prophet Muhammad said: Do not take from any thing EXCEPT Quran: The Prophet had commanded “Do not write from me except the Quran and whoever writes from me except the Quran he must destroy it!” (Musnad Ahmad hadith No 10966, Muslim Hadith No 594)
3) Zayd ibn Thabit said: "The Apostle of Allah (pbuh) ordered us not to write any of his traditions. So he erased it.” (Sunan Abu Dawud Book 25 hadith 3640)
4) Abu Hurayrah said "We were sitting down, writing what we heard from the Holy Prophet. He entered the room and asked us: What are you writing? We said: We are writing what we hear from you. He said: Another book next to the Book of Allah? We said: It is what we hear from you. He said: Then write the Book of Allah, uphold the Book of Allah, no other books but the Book of Allah, uphold the Book of Allah. Abu Hurayrah said: So we collected all that we wrote and burnt it. Then we asked the Holy Prophet: Can we talk about you? He said: Yes you can and feel no shame for it, and whoever deliberately lies about me, his seat in Hell will be secured. Abu Hurayrah said: Can we talk about Bani Israel? He said: Yes you can and feel no shame for it“. (Musnad Ahmad bin Hanbal 10611).
5) Narrated Ibn `Abbas: When Allah's Messenger was on his death-bed and in the house there were some people among whom was `Umar bin Al-Khattab, the Prophet said, "Come, let me write for you a statement after which you will not go astray." `Umar said, "The Prophet is seriously ill and you have the Qur'an; so the Book of Allah is enough for us." The people present in the house differed and quarrelled. Some said "Go near so that the Prophet may write for you a statement after which you will not go astray," while the others said as `Umar said. When they caused a hue and cry before the Prophet, Allah's Messenger said, "Go away!" (Sahih Bukhari 5669, Musnad Imam Ahmad).
6) “When Muhammad was sick on his death bed, he asked his companions to bring him pen and paper so that he could write them something for their salvation. When one of his companions rushed out to bring pen and paper, he was stopped by Omar ibn Khattab. Reportedly, Omar told him: “The Prophet has a high fever; he does not know what he is saying. God’s book is sufficient for us!” Everyone in the room accepted what Omar said.” (Sahih Bukhari: Jihad 176, Jizya 6, Ilm 49, Marza 17, Magazi 83, Itisam 2; Muslim: Vasiyya 20-22; Ibn Hanbal 1/222, 324, 336, 355)
7) "I left for you what if you hold on to, you will never be misguided, the book of God." (Muslim 15/19, nu 1218; Ibn Majah 25/84, Abu dawud 11/56.)
According to the historic books of Dhahabi in Tadhkiratul Huffadh and Ibn Saad in Tabaqat the four Caliphs always burned hadiths and 'Umar even imprisoned those who narrate ahadith amongst whom is Abu Hurayra which Umar himself hit many times with his stick.
The lack of existence of any Hadith book that can be referred back to the time before Bukhari shows Muhammad’s companions indeed were hardcore hadith rejectors as he asked them to be.
1. Abu bakr’s view on Hadith:
“Do not narrate or transmit any saying from God’s messenger. Tell those who would like you to tell hadiths: Behold! God’s Book is with us, abide by what has been made lawful for you in the Quran and avoid what has been prohibited therein.” (From the book Tazkiratul-Huffaz).
2. Omar’s view:
His dictum to the people was ‘hasbuna kitabullah/The Quran is sufficient for us’ (according to the Hadiths above).
Omar was quoted as stating that initially he had desired to write down a collection of the Prophet’s sayings, but refrained for fear of the Muslims choosing to abandon the teachings of the Quran in favor of the Hadith:
“I wanted to write the Sun’an, and I remembered a people who were before you, they wrote other books to follow and abandoned the book of God. And I will never, I swear, replace God’s book with anything.” (the book Jama ul Biyaan)
He said to a team of Qarza bin Ka’ab who were ready for a journey to Iraq:
“You are going to a country where people recite the Quran so much that the voice of the Quran echoes there like busy bees; so do not divert them from the Quran and from their true path by narrating hadiths. Qarza says, after that day, they did not remember narrating any hadith again.” (Jama ul Biyaan)
Omar was infuriated by hadith narrators like Qa’ab and Abu Hurayra, and drew a parallel between the hadiths and the Mishnah that had corrupted Judaism, saying: “These are like the Mishnah of the Jewish people.”
Omar was so categorical against transmission of hadith that when he saw Abi bin Qa’ab narrating hadiths, he went after him with his big cane (Tazkiratul-Huffaz).
Then Abu Huraira – the most prominent hadith narrator, whose negative role in Islam is considered by some as that of St Paul in Christianity – was recorded as having admitted himself his trouble with Omar:
“Abu Hurayra said: We could not utter ‘God’s Messenger spoke thus’, before Omar died.” (Sahih Muslim)
“Abu Hurayra said: If I transmitted these hadiths during the lifetime of Omar, he would surely strike me.” (Zahabi, Tazkiratul-Huffaz)
3. Othman’s view: he also did not pay any heed to the Hadith or traditions: “Once Ali’s son came to Othman with a script of command by the Prophet about zakat. Othman asked to be excused!”
It is reported that Othman threatened Abu Hurayra with exiling him to the Desh Mountains and Kab to the Kyrada Mountains as they continued transmitting hadiths. (from the book Azhir bin Saleh)
4. Ali’s view: the fourth Caliph, pronounced the following statement in a khutba: “Those who possess with them pages of hadiths should destroy them. For what causes havoc among people is their abandonment of the book of God and in abiding by the injunctions of the scholars.” (Jama e Biyaan ul Ilm, narrated by Abdullah bin Ye’saar).
Ali – like several other notable Sahaba including Omar, Othman and Aisha – accused Abu Huraira of fabricating false hadiths.
Prophet Muhammad would have been put to death immediately and thrown in hell if he had asked for his own sayings (other than those already part of the Quranic revelation) to be considered as part of the divine revelation:
[Quran 17:73-75] And they nearly diverted you (O Muhammad) from what We inspired to you so that you would fabricate something different against Us, and then they would have taken you as a friend! And if We had not made you stand firm, you were about to lean towards them a little bit. Then, We would have made you taste double (Punishment) in this life and double (Punishment) after death. And then you would not find for yourself any victor against Us.

Are the companions of Muhammad (Sahabas) infallible?
Are they pious and trustworthy enough to accept their Narrations from the prophet Muhammad according to Quran?
In fact the God warns us from so many hypocrites among them in not 1 or 2 but so many Verses! Examples:
[9:101] And from among the Arabs around you (Muhammad) are hypocrites, and from among the people of the city, they persist in hypocrisy. You do not know them, but We know them. We will punish them twice, then they will be returned to a great punishment.
[9:97] The Arabs are the worst in rejection and hypocrisy, and more likely not to know the boundaries of what God has sent down upon His messenger. God is Knower, Wise.
[4:141] Those who linger and observe you, if you have a victory from God they say: "Were we not with you?" And if the rejecters have success, they say: "Did we not side with you and deter the believers from you?" God will judge between you on the Day of Resurrection, and God will not grant the rejecters any success over the believers.
(Related verses = 9:73-80, 2:8-15, 63:1, 4:60-63, 4:142, 63:4-5, 33:18-19, 47:16, 47:29-30, 48:11, 9:38-39, 5:54, 8:27-28, 33:12, 8:25, 61:2-3, 57:16, 49:17, 9:24, 49:14 and etc.)
There's definitely pious ones among them but more likely Muhammad’s companions were filled with nasty hypocrites. you can see their Art Works in the Hadith Books. Now imagine claiming that their narrations are from Muhammad and consequently from the God. A very obvious example of Hadith written down by a hypocrite:
[Sahih Bukhari 3175] Narrated Aisha: Once the Prophet was bewitched so that he began to imagine that he had done a thing which in fact he had not done. (also Sahih Bukhari 6391)
[Quran 17:47] the wicked say: “You are following a man who is bewitched!”
You can actually find out where did this hypocrites come from by just reading the Hadiths:
[Sahih Bukhari 6227] The Prophet said, "Allah created Adam in His image”.
Wait a minute! Didn’t you hear that before, somewhere else?
Bible: [Genesis 1:26] Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness."
Yes, the hypocrite narrators came from other religions and joined Islam and attributed their own false beliefs to Muhammad:
[Quran 42:11] There is nothing like unto Him. (لیس کمثله شی)
This fact gets more brighter by comparing some penalties in Quran, Hadith and Bible:
- Penalty for apostasy:
Quran: Nothing
Hadith: Death (Sahih Bukhari 4:52:260)
Bible: Death (Leviticus 24:13-16 & Deuteronomy 13:6-11)
- Penalty for not praying:
Quran: Nothing
Hadith: Beating children (AbiDawud 495), it's Apostasy (Muslim 82)
Bible: Death (Numbers 15:32-36)
- Penalty for Adultery:
Quran: 100 lashes (24:2)
Hadith: Death (Sahih Bukhari 2:23:413 & Sahih Bukhari 3:34:421)
Bible: Death (Leviticus 20:10-12), rapist Man must marry his victim (Deuteronomy 22:28-30)
- Penalty for innocent people of Enemy:
Quran: Nothing
Hadith: Massacre (Sahih Bukhari 5:59:362 & Muslim 19:4364)
Bible: Massacre (Joshua 6:21 & Samuel 15:3)
* Hadith books are filled with corruptions of Christians, Jews and Zoroastrians who converted to Islam at the time of prophet Muhammad and later.
The current Islamic Sectarians you see all over the world, more than 80% of their Sharia (Religious Laws) ain't from Quran but from the corruptions of the Hadith books. They made up totally different religion than Islam. A real Muslim (Submitter to God Alone) is the one who upholds Quran alone:
[Quran 17:46] And when you preach your Lord, using the Quran alone (قرآن وحده), they run away in aversion.
[Quran 6:114] Shall I seek other than God as a source of law, when He has revealed to you this book (Quran) fully detailed?
Chapter 8
Some of the important beliefs of the sectarians
Now we gonna shed light of Quran on the few bold beliefs of the sectarians.
Chapter 9
1) The return of Jesus
You can find that story in the Christian sources and in Hadith books, based on those hadiths:
Jesus is not dead and he is flying in the sky and he will come back on a white horse before the Day of Judgment and he will use his sword to force Christians, Jews and infidels to convert to Islam, and he will behead anyone who does not convert to Islam, then he will judge the people and Establishes justice.
1) There is no verse about this story in the entire Quran.
2) The Quran says that only God Judges humans, Jesus cannot, and he and all other messengers will be judged by God:
[18:26] And God does not share his judgment with no one.
[7:6] We will question those to whom We have sent (book), and We will question the messengers.
3) Jesus is not alive and does not fly in the sky:
[3:55] For God said: "O Jesus, I will terminate your life (متوفیک) and raise you to Me, and cleanse you of those who have rejected, and make those who have followed you above those who have rejected until the Day of Resurrection. Then to Me is your return, all of you, so I will judge between you in what it was that you disputed."
[21:34] And We did not give immortality to any human being that came before you (Muhammad). If you are going to die, would they be immortal?
4) Jesus cannot force anyone to accept Islam:
[2:256] "There is no compulsion in religion."
[88:21-22] "So remind, for you are only a reminder, you have no power over them."
[18:29] "Then let whoever wants to believe and whoever wants to disbelieve."
[10:99] "If your Lord willed, all the people on the earth would have believed altogether, would you force people to believe?"
5) Attacking Christians, Jews and infidels with swords and horses while they are equipped with the most advanced firearms and even nuclear bombs is completely stupid.
6) Prophet Muhammad is the last prophet, so Jesus cannot return and be the last of the prophets:
[33:40] Muhammad is not the father of any of you men, but he is the messenger of God and the seal of the prophets.
✓ The hadiths themselves not only label Prophet Muhammad as the seal of the Prophets, but also go further in the title of Khatam al-Mursalin (the seal of the people sent by God)! Yet we are told that God will send the Mahdi and Jesus!
7) On the Day of Resurrection, Jesus and all the prophets, including Jesus, will not know what happened after their death:
[5:116-117] And God will say: "O Jesus, son of Mary, did you tell the people to take you and your mother as Gods other than God?" He said: "Glory to you, I cannot say what I have no right of. If I had said it then You know it, You know what is in my self while I do not know what is in Your self. You are the Knower of the unseen." I said not to them except what You commanded me to worship God, my Lord and your Lord. And I was a witness over them as long as I was among them; but when You took me up, You were the Observer over them, and You are, over all things, Witness.
[5:109] The Day God will gather the messengers (including Jesus) and He will say: "What was the response you received?" They said: "We have no knowledge, you are the Knower of all the unseen."
✓ If the apocalyptic hadiths are correct and Jesus will return before the Day of Judgment, ask yourself how Jesus can say on the Day of Judgment that he does not know what people did after his death?
If he comes, he will know what people have done!
8) In the following verses, the same words that were said about Jesus were also said about Yahya:
[19:15] And peace be upon him (Yahya) the day he was born, and the day he dies, and the Day he is resurrected alive.
[19:33] (Jesus said:) "And peace be upon me the day I was born, and the day I die, and the Day I am resurrected alive."
✓ Shouldn't Jesus have said: “Peace be upon me the day I was born and the day I die and the day I will be brought back alive again and the day I die again and the day I will be resurrected again!”?
But in fact, the life and death of Jesus and Yahya are like all of us: birth, life, death, resurrection.
As we can see, the hadiths about this incident contradicts many verses of the Quran and this is an obvious lie.
The real story is that after the death of Jesus, the Christians knew that another last prophet (Muhammad) would come in the future according to Injeel and they didn't like it, they wanted Jesus to come back again instead of Muhammad! So they made such a legendary story.
After the death of Prophet Muhammad, Christians of Yasrib accepted Islam and inserted those lies and distortions into the hadith books.
Chapter 10
2) The torment of the grave
"I always saw him (prophet) seeking refuge with Allah from the punishment of the grave in his prayers" [Bukhari 8:75:377]
1) You can't find a single verse about this in the Quran.
2) at the Day of resurrection wicked will say "Woe to us! Who has resurrected us from our resting place?" [36:51-52].
Why are they shocked if they already met Punishment and two angels in the grave?
3) [Quran 39:42] God takes back the 'Anfus' (selves) at the time of their death…"
How can people be tortured if their NAFS (self) ain't in their grave and their decayed body But with God?
4) How can God The Best Judge (Quran 10:109) torture humans before judging at the judgement Day? what's the meaning and purpose of the Day of judgement then?
5) Based on verse 2:28 God gives us Two death and Two Life:
How can you disbelieve in the God when you were lifeless and He brought you to life; then He will cause you to die, then He will bring you to life, and then to Him you will be returned.
If we accept there's grave punishment, we will be claiming that there's 3 Life: on earth, in grave and hereafter. should we disbelieve in this verse?
6) Based on verse 18:26 God ALONE will judge us. then How the two Angels (their names in Hadiths: Nakir and Munkar) in the grave can judge and punish us?
7) Muhammad didn't know the Ghayb (unseen):
[27:65] No one in the heavens and the earth knows the unseen except God. (More verses = 6:50, 46:9)
8) Not everyone who dies is buried in a grave, some are cremated, some are frozen on the tips of mountains, some are blown to pieces and etc. Are the wicked the lucky ones who escape the "punishment of the grave"?
9) Based on verses 30:55-56 wicked will swear that he remained only for 1 hour till the Day of resurrection and He won't know how many years he was in the grave!
[30:55-56] And the Day the Hour is established, the criminals will swear that they have remained only for an hour! Thus they were deluded. And those who were given knowledge and faith said: "You have remained according to the decree of God until the Day of Resurrection; so this is now the Day of Resurrection, but you did not know."
10) Why grave is introduced as a resting place and not a reward/punishment place in the Quran?
[36:52] They will say, "O woe to us! Who has raised us up from our resting place?"
there are so many other reasons but i think these are enough for a Healthy brain to understand the Truth.
Chapter 11
3) The illiterate Muhammad
Was prophet Muhammad illiterate and Sahabas or his cousins wrote down Quran?
One of the fabrications against the Prophet Muhammad that was created by the corrupt Muslim scholars was that he was illiterate and could not read or write. This fabrication originated because Prophet Muhammad, unlike the previous Prophets and Messengers of the past, did not have a physical miracle. So people invented a lie that he was illiterate and that was his miracle since he was able to produce the Quran, which was linguistically excellent. The other reason for that lie is they later could deceive the Muslims by telling them “the same people who wrote Hadith are the ones who wrote the Quran”. They tried to give credits to their fabrications and they actually succeeded. So it’s a very profitable lie But contradicts the verses of the Quran.
1) God informs us in the Quran that Muhammad did not have a physical miracle:
[Quran 10:20] They say, “How come no miracle came down to Prophet Muhammad from his Ruler?” Say, “The future belongs to God; so wait, and God is waiting along with you.”
If Muhammad was able to produce the Quran despite being illiterate then it would contradict the above verse because that would be quite extraordinary if it was true.
2) But it is obvious that Muhammad not only could read and write, but he actually wrote the Quran with his own hand. Even the contemporary adversaries to the prophet acknowledged that he could read and write. This is stated in the following verse.
[Quran 25:5] They also said, “Tales from the past that he wrote down; they were dictated to him day and night.”
3) According to scholars Muhammad was a successful merchant. The “Sectarian scholars” who fabricated the illiteracy lie forgot that there were no numbers during the Prophet’s time; the letters of the alphabet were used as numbers; similar to roman numerals. As a merchant dealing with numbers every day, the Prophet had to know the alphabet, from one to one- thousand.
4) According to scholars the first revelation given to the prophet was Sura 96 verses one through five:
[Quran 96:1-5] Read, in the name of your RULER, who created. God created man from an embryo. Read, and your RULER, Most Exalted. Teaches by means of the pen. God teaches people what they never knew.
Firstly, the word “اقرا” at the beginning means “Read”, and this word never means “Recite” in the entire Quran (the word for recite is “یتلو”). One can not read something that isn’t written down. So Muhammad had the written Quran in front of him and this contradicts the claim of the scholars who believe Quran was written after death of prophet Muhammad.
Second, If Muhammad could not read then Muhammad would have not been able to fulfill this request by God. Yet even if we say that prior to this revelation he was illiterate the verses states that God teaches man what he never knew, which means God have allowed him to read to fulfill this command.
5) It was Muhammad’s sole duty to deliver God’s final scripture to mankind. If he outsourced the critical task of physically writing the revelations he received from God during the 23 years he received Quranic revelations, then he would have been neglecting his very function as Prophet.
[Quran 42:48] If they turn away, we did not send you as their guardian. Your sole mission is delivering the message.
6) An additional confirmation that Muhammad wrote the Quran with his right hand can be found in '69:45 of the Quran'.
[Quran 69:44-47] Had he uttered any other teachings. We would have seized him by the right hand. God would have stopped the revelations to him. None of you could have helped him.
The word ”بِالْيَمِينِ” means: by the right hand. It comes from the root ” ي م ن “. The meaning of this root is the following:
To meet on the right side; bless; lead to the right; be a cause of blessing; right hand; oaths; blessed; peoples of the right hands that are blessed.
The context of Quran 64:44–47 are in reference to God’s revelations of the Quran, that was given to Muhammad to deliver. To provide assurances that God’s verses were not altered by the messenger, God is telling us that if Muhammad was to write any other teachings God would have seized his right hand, thus refraining him from being able to write any more of God’s revelations.
Quran 17:73–75, God gives us further assurances that the Quran, that Muhammad wrote with his own hand, was exactly as intended by God without alteration by any intermediary.
[Quran 17:73-75] They almost diverted you from the revelations God has given you. They wanted you to fabricate something else, in order to consider you a friend. If it were not that God strengthened you, you almost leaned towards them just a little bit. Had you done that, God would have doubled the retribution for you in this life, and after death, and you would have found no one to help you against us.
7) In the verse below we can clearly see Muhammad was using hand to write Quran:
[Quran 29:48] You did not recite the previous scriptures before this (Quran), nor did you write them with your right hand. In that case, the rejecters would have had reason to harbor doubts.
The word “من قبله/before this” indicates Muhammad wrote the Quran. If he wasn’t able to write Quran the God wouldn’t say “before this”. If a person is blind by birth can you tell him “you never saw anything before this”? or “you never saw anything”? You can’t use the first statement because the blind is still isn’t able to see. Similarly if Muhammad was illiterate the God couldn’t say “before this” cause he still wouldn’t be able to write. In other words, Muhammad wrote Quran something (writing) that he didn’t before Quran. the God taught him according to verse 96:1-5.
then what “Ummy/امی” means?
The word scholars relied on to bestow illiteracy upon the Prophet was “UMMY.” Unfortunately for those scholars, this word clearly means “Gentile,” or one who does not follow any scripture; it does not mean “illiterate”. Keep in mind:
[Quran 62:2] God is the One who sent to the Ummies a Messenger from among them, to recite to them God's revelations, purify them, and teach them the scripture and wisdom. Before this, they had gone far astray.
Quran itself clearly defines the word “Ummy” here:
[Quran 2:78] Among them are gentiles who do not know the scripture, except through hearsay, then assume that they know it.
So Ummies are the Arabs who are not Jew or Christian, in other words, those who do not know the scripture. The verse that clearly defines ummy as “gentiles” and not just one who is illiterate is in the following verse:
[Quran 3:20] If they argue with you, then say, “I have simply submitted myself to God; I and those who follow me.” You shall proclaim to those who received the scripture, as well as those who did not (Ummies), “Would you submit?” If they submit, then they have been guided, but if they turn away, your sole mission is to deliver this message. God is Seer of all people.
Notice: That this verse contrasts those who were given the scripture “الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ” with those who were not “الْأُمِّيِّينَ” the ummy e.g. gentiles. This is a typical mechanism in the Quran where God contrasts two subjects so that we can recognize each group by its opposite. So in this case the opposite of “those who were given scripture” would not be “the illiterates” but specifically “the gentiles.” It would not make any sense to think that Muhammad was commanded to proclaim the scripture to only those who received the scripture and the illiterates. What about literate Mushriks (polytheists) then? Isn’t Muhammad sent to mankind?
Even though the God’s words are enough to know the truth, It’s so funny that actually Hadith books contradicts each other and the claim of the scholars on this matter:
Narrated By Anas bin Malik: Once the Prophet wrote a letter or had an idea of writing a letter. The Prophet was told that they (rulers) would not read letters unless they were sealed... [Sahih Bukhari Volume 1, Book 3, Hadith Number 65]
Narrated By 'Ubaidullah bin 'Abdullah : Ibn 'Abbas said, "When the ailment of the Prophet became worse, he said, 'Bring for me (writing) paper and I will write for you a statement after which you will not go astray.'… [Sahih Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 3, Hadith Number 114 & Volume 7, Book 70, Hadith Number 573]
… Thereupon Allah’s Messenger said: They should either pay blood-wit for your companion, or be prepared for war.
Allah’s Messenger wrote about it to them (to the Jews)...[Muslim, Book 16, Hadith 4126]
… the Prophet of Allah (may peace be upon him) wrote to Chosroes (King of Persia), Caesar (Emperor of Rome), Negus (King of Abyssinia) and every (other) despot inviting them to Allah, the Exalted… [Muslim, Book 19, Hadith 4382]
Chapter 12
4) Man-made prohibitions
There are prohibitions made by sectarian scholars that are attributed to Muhammad through Hadiths. For example they say eating some kinds of foods ain’t allowed by the God and each sect and even subsect (such as Hanafi, Shafei, Imamiyah and etc) vary on their opinions about the foods. The question appears why there’s variations on the prohibitions? It’s like they take their laws from different gods! one god will give the same laws to all of them but they don’t have the same. Something is wrong! All of them claim they are Muslims and following the same religion and God but they all have different laws, how many gods is there?
Allah's messenger forbade the eating of donkey meat. [Sahih Bukhari 4218]
Each of those sects choose whatever hadith they like. For example some take the hadith above as law and some don’t, some make some kind of seafood or birds forbidden. Their whole fake prohibitions are exposed by the God already in the Quran:
[6:145] Say, "I do not find in the revelations given to me any food that is prohibited for any eater except: (1) carrion, (2) running blood, (3) the meat of pigs, for it is contaminated, and (4) the meat of animals blasphemously dedicated to other than God." If one is forced (to eat these), without being deliberate or malicious, then your Lord is Forgiver, Most Merciful.
The first statement of this verse is so important: "I do not find in the revelations given to me any food that is prohibited for any eater except: …” the sectarian scholars say the opposite, they believe Muhammad is given the revelation of the donkey meat too! Who’s the liar here? Is the God lying or the sectarian scholars and their hadiths?
[2:173] He ONLY prohibits for you the eating of animals that die of themselves (without human interference), blood, the meat of pigs, and animals dedicated to other than God. If one is forced (to eat these), without being malicious or deliberate, he incurs no sin. God is Forgiver, Most Merciful.
[16:115] He ONLY prohibits for you dead animals, blood, the meat of pigs, and food which is dedicated to other than God. If one is forced (to eat these), without being deliberate or malicious, then God is Forgiver, Most Merciful.
They can’t take both and can’t say ONLY this 4 foods are prohibited then go and prohibit donkey meat too that’s the rejection of the God’s words. What the god says about sectarians and scholars:
Do not utter lies that are portrayed by your tongues: "This is lawful and that is unlawful", to fabricate lies and attribute them to God. Those who fabricate lies and attribute them to God will not succeed. [16:116]
Or do they have partners who legislate for them of the religion what God did not authorise? If it were not for a decisive Word, judgement would have already been passed over them. Indeed, the transgressors shall have a painful punishment. [42:21]
[16:35] The Mushriks say, "Had God willed, we would not take any partner besides Him, nor would our parents. Nor would we prohibit anything besides His prohibitions." Those before them have done the same. Can the messengers do anything but deliver the clear message?
Another example is the spread of hate towards the dogs and calling them Haram. Muslims all over the world are led to believe that the dog is a dirty animal and that the mere touching of a dog would void the wudu (ablution) and infect the one who touched it with 'nagasah' (dirty impurity)! This non Quranic concept comes from a number of hadith. It is claimed that prophet Muhammad ordered the killing of dogs and gave numerous hadith that prohibit the keeping of dogs except for hunting and guarding, due to their dirty properties!
[Sahih Bukhari 4:54:539] The Prophet said, "Angels do not enter a house which has either a dog or a picture in it."
1) Really? Then why the western people who keep dogs at their home still die in their homes? How the Angel of death can enter their home when the dog is inside?
[Malik's Muwatta 54:54.5.13] "the messenger of God ordered all dogs (other than sheepdogs or hunting dogs) to be killed". [Ibn Hanbal's] The messenger of God said: "You shall kill all black dogs, because they are devils."
2) God tells us in the Quran about the story of the Companions of the Cave (Surah 18). In verse 13 God tells us that they were good believers and that God guided them. In verse 18 God tells us that they had their dog with them:
You would think that they were awake, when they were in fact asleep. We turn them to the right side and the left side, while their dog stretched out his forepaws at the entrance.
If dogs were prohibited and dirty, would God speak of the Companions of the Cave (who had a dog) as good believers?
3) Traditional Muslim scholars claim that the saliva of the dog contains contamination. In 5:4 God tells us that it is okay to eat what the trained dogs catch (dogs are used in hunting):
They ask you, what has been made lawful for them. Say, "Lawful for you are good foods and what you have trained of hunting animals which you train as Allah has taught you. So eat of what they catch for you, and mention the name of Allah upon it, and fear Allah." Indeed, Allah is swift in account.
If the dog is an animal which causes contamination by mere touch, would God tell us that it is perfectly alright to eat what the dog catches with his mouth (let alone just touch the dog)?
4) Is it logical that God would create an animal to be man's best friend and serve him in many ways, and then prohibit us from keeping such an animal?
Nothing is haram (unlawful) unless it is prohibited by God Himself, and since God describes the Quran as complete, perfect and fully detailed, thus all the prohibitions decreed by God are found in the Quran. Humans always want more unnecessary details. The following Quranic verses confirms this truth:
And We have dispatched in this Quran for the people from every example; but man has always been most argumentative. [18:54]
Shall I seek other than God as a lawmaker, when it is He who has brought down to you the Book fully detailed?” [6:114]
Did the prophet really issue these prohibitions? Did the prophet have the authority to issue these prohibitions?
The answer is given in the Quran:
"O you prophet, why do you prohibit what God has made lawful for you, seeking to please your wives? God is Forgiver Merciful. [66:1]
God did not include the words in 66:1 in the Quran to belittle the prophet in our eyes, but these words are placed in the Quran in order to confirm to all believers, across all times, that the prophet of God does not have the authority to prohibit anything which is not prohibited by God. God is the only judge (6:114) and the only duty of the messenger is to deliver God's message (5:92).
Chapter 13
5) Pedophilia
Narrated `Aisha: that the Prophet married her when she was six years old and he consummated his marriage when she was nine years old, and then she remained with him for nine years (i.e., till his death). [Sahih Bukhari 5133]
Narrated `Aisha: I used to play with the dolls in the presence of the Prophet, and my girl friends also used to play with me. When Allah's Messenger used to enter (my dwelling place) they used to hide themselves, but the Prophet would call them to join and play with me. [Sahih Bukhari 6130]
One of the biggest misconceptions about Islam is that it permits child marriages, and is therefore looked down upon as medieval, oppressive and illogical by non-Muslims. Shockingly, instead of viewing this as a downright tarnation and disgrace to Islam, Muslims in complete ignorance of the Quran actually defend and support this point of view! If Muslims, themselves, are going to portray such an image of their religion, then I really don’t see why they would get agitated with the criticism on Islam.
I say this with my deepest regrets, but Muslims have become their own worst enemies. Practically abandoning the pivotal commandment of Islam on independent reasoning, they have substituted it with an unprecedented trust in the “authorities” on Islam. And yet again, they have succeeded to bring shame to us all.
Part 1: Child marriage:
1) The Quran equates marriageable age to a mature and sound judgment:
“And test the orphans [in your charge] until they reach a marriageable age; then, if you find them to be mature of mind/sound in judgment, hand over to them their possessions…” [4:6]
Please pay close attention here. Marriageable age is equated to sound judgment; an age in which a person can responsibly handle their possessions. In the name of God, are you really trying to tell me that a person is sound in judgment at the tender age of, say, 6? 9? 12?
It is illogical to assume that a 12 year old child would have a mature intellectual level. After all, those years are meant to be a learning curve for the child: a crucial time in which a child shapes his whole personality by exploring different paradigms and attaining valuable experience on life. Undertaking such a huge responsibility would greatly affect the child psychologically, as they would be deprived of the time and space required to undergo a personal change and discover themselves.
Furthermore, such scenarios are by default rapes of children, since children have not developed and matured in sexual awareness to comprehend sex. To make things worse, traditional teachings involve psychological and sexual imposition of a man upon a girl who then surrenders under the circumstances, probably scarring her for life.
2) The Quran advises Muslims to marry Monotheists:
“Do not marry the females who set up partners until they acknowledge. An acknowledging servant is better than one who sets up partners, even if she attracts you. Similarly, do not marry the males who set up partners until they acknowledge. An acknowledging servant is better than one who sets up partners even if he attracts you” [2:221]
A similarity of belief systems and common ground are necessary to establish a healthy relationship. How can children be expected to have a grasp of theology, when they are mentally incapable to do so? Usually, at that age, children would blindly follow whatever their parents teach them. This type of enforcement of beliefs is severely discouraged in the Quran on many occasions. As mentioned earlier, parents have to give children their own space to formulate their views before they even think of marrying them.
3) The Quran terms marriage as a solemn oath:
“And how could you take it away (marital gift) after you have given yourselves to one another, and she has received a most solemn pledge from you?” [4:21]
Marriage is no child’s play. It demands a huge amount of responsibility from both individuals: something children are definitely not ready for. Therefore, the Quran makes no compromises on this fact, terming marriage a “most solemn pledge.” To suggest that Allah would even allow, leave aside encourage, an individual to get into a “solemn pledge” without discovering themselves from a psychological, physical, and social perspective is nothing short of insulting the idea of creation.
4) The Quran forbids forcing women to marry by compulsion:
“O You who have chosen to be graced with belief! It is not lawful for you to force women into marrying or holding on to them in marriage against their will.” [4:19]
Would an innocent child, on their own merit, entertain the idea of marriage? The immense responsibility of marriage is one that children do not even have the intellectual capacity to grasp thoroughly. They would only entertain it if they are heavily influenced by the parents. This, as you see above, is severely discouraged.
5) The Quran expects the male partner to financially support his wife:
“Let them (the divorced women) live where you live with the same standard of living that you have, and according to your best means. Harass them not to make life difficult for them. And if they are pregnant, spend on them freely until they deliver their burden. Then, if they nurse your baby, give them their due recompense. And frequently consult together amicably. And if both of you find it difficult, let another woman suckle the baby on her behalf.” [65:6]
So, how do you expect a 12 year old to earn a living now? Is he supposed to get an education, or is he supposed to labor in order to be able to financially support his spouse? Another ruling should be in order: Education is un-Islamic for children who attain puberty! Yeah, I wouldn’t be surprised!
Part 2: The Misconception about Verse 4, Chapter 65:
“And those who no longer expect menstruation among your women, if you doubt, then their (waiting) period is three months (relating to divorce), and [also for] those who did not menstruate. And for those who are pregnant, their term is until they give birth.” [65:4]
Here, traditional voices would have you believe that “those who did not menstruate” refers to prepubescent girls who have not “yet” attained puberty, thereby concluding that Islam permits child marriage. What is shameful is that they deliberately add the word “yet” to justify their medieval thought, which is to be found nowhere in the Arabic text of the verse.
Let’s dissect the verse, shall we? The verse starts off by discussing the waiting period for women who have ceased to menstruate, in the case of a divorce. Therefore, it has laid the context of adult women who are of menstruating age.
Obviously then, “those who did not menstruate” is from the context of adult women who are supposed to menstruate, but did not do so. This medical condition is called Amenorrhea where a woman does not have menstrual periods. The waiting period for such women, then, is the same – 3 months.
It is absolutely clear from the Quran that child marriage is something God never authorized. Child marriage is detrimental to the overall well-being of children, and quite frankly, is another form of slavery. The psychopathic mentality that allows this is a sign of a very sick and disturbed mind, something that seems to be much abundant within the clergy-class. Any rational person can immediately identify the evils of such an oppressive act. It surprises me to see how a beacon of light is manipulated by a bunch of misogynistic individuals to enslave billions around the world!
“Have you considered those who were asked to accept judgment from Allah’s Book? When they are asked to accept judgment from Allah’s Book, some of them turn their backs and walk away!” [3:23]
Would you then, O fellow Muslim, rethink your stance?
Chapter 14
6) Beating wife
those who interpret the word “iddribuhhunna” in 4:34 to mean "physically beat" are in fact violating three Quranic principles, and they are:
1) God prohibits all aggression. To physically beat another person is an act of aggression no matter what justification anyone may have:
Do not transgress; God does not like the aggressors. [5:87]
2) God commands husbands and wives to treat each other with love and mercy, once again beating up the wife is not a merciful act:
And from His signs is that He created for you mates from yourselves that you may reside with them, and He placed between you affection and mercy. In that are signs for a people who reflect. [30:21]
3) In Sura 4 which is given the title "Women" and in verse 19 men are told specifically to treat their wives "bil-ma'ruf" which means with kindness. Needless to say, physically beating women does not exactly qualify for anyone's definition of kindness.
The problem comes from the word "Idribuhunne" which we used to translate as "beat them". The root of this word is "DaRaBa". If you look at any Arabic dictionary you will find a long list of meanings ascribed to this word. That list is one of the longest lists in all the Arabic dictionary. It can be said that "DaRaBa" is the number-one multi-meaning word in Arabic. It has so many different meanings, we can find numerous different meanings ascribed to it in the Quran.
- To travel, to get out: 3:156; 4:101; 38:44; 73:20; 2:273
- To strike: 2:60,73; 7:160; 8:12; 20:77; 24:31; 26:63; 37:93; 47:4
- To beat: 8:50; 47:27
- To set up: 43:58; 57:13
- To give (examples): 14:24,45; 16:75,76,112; 18:32,45; 24:35; 30:28,58; 36:78; 39:27,29; 43:17; 59:21; 66:10,11 - To take away, to ignore: 43:5
- To condemn: 2:61
- To seal, to draw over: 18:11
- To cover: 24:31
- To explain: 13:17
The word 'daraba' is also used in the Quran to mean to strike out, leave out, or withhold, such as in the following verse:
Should We 'nadrib aankum' (withhold from you, strike you out) the Reminder from you, disregarding you because you are an excessive people? [43:5]
Out of the above uses of the word 'daraba' the meaning of withholding and striking out is the only meaning that makes sense and is in line with the spirit of the Book. It follows that God is instructing the man three options in dealing with his wife if she acts irrationally. If the first two options do not work, then the husband has the option of striking his wife out by separating from her.
The reason God's words in 4:34 said "strike her out" (separate from her) and not 'divorce her' is because God set a rule in the Quran which requires a couple to separate for 4 months before they can go on with a divorce. This is regarded as a cooling off period which safeguards against divorces that are executed in haste at the spur of a moment of anger.
Those who wish to separate from their wives shall wait four months. If they reconsider, then God is Forgiver, Merciful.
And if they decide to go through with the divorce, then God is Hearer, Knowledgeable. [2:226-227]
If after a separation of 4 months the couple still wish to divorce, then a divorce can be executed.
Chapter 15
Degrading women and advocating misogyny
The Quran strongly advocates the unitary origin of humankind from the same life-source, while highlighting the parallel, simultaneous descent of its male and female counterparts (4:1). Thus, far from discriminating against women, it depicts both men and women as contemporary and complimentary to each other, while often mentioning them together in mutual, reciprocal terms as equals (And for women are rights over men similar to those of men over women: 2:226). For example, in addressing the awakened people, the Quran uses the dual expression ‘men and women’ to emphasize the equality of gender with regard to their respective rights, duties, virtues and merits (2:226, 3:195, 9:71, 16:97, 33:35). While assuring both males and females the same recompense for their actions (4:32), it confirms that they both possess the same spiritual capability to enter the eternal garden of bliss if they do good (43:70, 4:124). Nobody is superior to the other, since the superiority of a person is just in the degree of closeness to God through awareness and good actions (49:13).
In sharp contrast, however, hadiths, including the so-called Sahih hadiths, constantly and blatantly contradict the Quranic positions in this regard. This can be demonstrated by quoting a few examples where hadiths degrade women and instigate misogyny:
1. Women are virtual slaves to their husbands:
The Messenger of Allah said, “If I were to command anyone to prostrate to anyone other than Allah, I would have commanded women to prostrate to their husbands. By the One in Whose Hand is the soul of Muhammad! No woman can fulfil her duty towards Allah until she fulfils her duty towards her husband. If he asks her (for sex) even if she is on her camel saddle, she should not refuse.” [Ibnmajah 1853 & abudawud 2140]
The Prophet said, “It is not permissible for a human being to prostrate to another human being. Were it permissible for a human being to prostrate to another human being, I would have commanded the woman to prostrate to her husband because of his great right upon her. By the One in Whose hand is my soul, if he (the husband) had, from his feet to the top of his head, an ulcer oozing blood and pus, and she came to lick it off for him, she would not have fulfilled his right.” [Imam Ahmad 12153 & al-Jaami’ 7725]
While the Quran depicts the relationship between husband and wife as one of love and respect and compassion and cooperation (30:21, 4:19, 7:189, 25:74, 2:228), hadiths, on the other hand, reduce a wife’s position to that of virtual servitude to her husband. Numerous hadiths exemplify this.
2. Women are not allowed to refuse if their men call them to bed:
The Messenger of Allah said, “By Him in Whose Hand is my life, when a man calls his wife to his bed, and she does not respond, the One Who is above the heaven becomes displeased with her until he (her husband) becomes pleased with her.” [Muslim B 008, H 3367 & riyadussalihin:281]
The Prophet said, “If a man invites his wife to sleep with him and she refuses to come to him, then the angels send their curses on her till morning.” [Sahih Bukhari 5193]
The messenger of Allah said, “When a man sends for his wife for the satisfaction of his need, she should go to him even if she may be occupied in baking bread.” [tirmidhi 1160]
Allah’s apostle said, “When a woman spends the night away from the bed of her husband, the angels curse her until morning.” [muslim 1436]
The Messenger of Allah said, “No woman can fulfil her duty towards Allah until she fulfils her duty towards her husband. If he asks her (for sex) even if she is on her camel saddle, she should not refuse.” [ibnmajah 1853]
Evidently this genre of Hadith goes against the very spirit of the Quranic teachings, which portray husband-wife relationship as one of mutual love, cooperation, and compassion. They also make wives virtual servants to wives and “contribute to the general denigration of the moral status of women.” They have also grave socio-economic implications.
3. Wife’s salvation is contingent on her husband’s happiness:
The Prophet said, “Any woman who dies while her husband is pleased with her enters Heaven.” [riyadussalihin 286]
The Prophet said, “If a woman prays five (times a day), fasts Ramadan, obeys her husband, and guards her chastity, she will enter Heaven.” [Ibn Hanbal Musnad 1:236-237]
God’s Messenger said, “When a woman observes the five times of prayer, fasts during Ramadan, preserves her chastity and obeys her husband, she may enter by any of the gates of paradise she wishes.” [mishkat 3254]
When God’s Messenger was asked which woman was best he replied, “The one who pleases (her husband) when he looks at her, obeys him when he gives a command, and does not go against his wishes regarding her person or property by doing anything of which he disapproves.” [mishkat 3272]
The Prophet said, “God will not look at a woman who is not grateful to her husband despite her reliance on him.” [Awn al- Mabud 6:179]
The Prophet said: "I was shown the Hell-fire and that the majority of its dwellers were women who were ungrateful." It was asked, "Do they disbelieve in Allah?" (or are they ungrateful to Allah?) He replied, "They are ungrateful to their husbands and are ungrateful for the favors and the good (charitable deeds) done to them.” [Sahih Bukhari 29]
As Abou El Fadl rightly points out, the message in these hadiths “is problematic because it makes God’s pleasure contingent on the husband’s pleasure.” All such hadiths are not only at odds with the spirit of the Quran, they also suggest that the Prophet glorified carnal pleasure – a suggestion that is fundamentally contradictory to his beautiful character.
4. A woman’s prayer or worship is not accepted if she upsets her husband:
The Messenger of Allah said, “There are three people whose prayers will not be accepted by Allah, nor do any good deed of theirs risen up to heaven: a fleeing slave until he returns to his master and helps him, a woman whose husband is angry with her until he is pleased with her, and a drunkard until he becomes conscious.” [Related by Jabir. Reported by Ibn Hibban] The Messenger of Allah said, “There are three whose prayer do not rise more than a hand span above their heads: A man who leads people (in prayer) when they do not like him; a woman who has spent the night with her husband angry with her; and two brothers who have severed contact with one another.” [ibnmajah 971]
The Prophet said, “The first things a woman is called to account for on the Day of Judgment are her prayers and her (relations with her) husband.” [As-Suyuti in Al-Jami Al-Kabir]
The Messenger of Allah said, “It is not lawful for a woman to fast (voluntarily) when her husband is present without his permission, and she may not allow anyone to enter his house without his permission.” [mishkat 2031 & riyadussalihin 282]
5. Women’s lower status is portrayable only in a derogatory way:
Allah's Messenger said, “A husband’s right upon his wife is such that if he had an ulcer and she licked it for him, she would not fulfil his right by that.” [al-Jami 3148]
The Prophet said, “By the One in Whose hand is my soul, if he (the husband) had, from his feet to the top of his head, an ulcer oozing blood and pus, and she came to lick it off for him, she would not have fulfilled his right.” [Hanbal’s Musnad, 12153 & al-Jaami 7725]
A woman approached the Prophet informing him that she intends to marry her cousin, and asked what the rights of her husband would be over her, to which he replied, “Were you to lick the snot off of his nose, even then you would not have given him his full rights he has over you.” At which the woman replied, “In that case, I do not wish to get married!”
[Reported by Ahmad, Al-Bazaar and Silsilat As-Saheeha]
6. Women are created from a crooked rib:
The Prophet said, “Take care of the women, for they are created from a rib and the most crooked portion of the rib is its upper part; if you try to straighten it, it will break, and if you leave it, it will remain crooked, so I urge you to take care of the women.” [Sahih Bukhari 5185]
7. A good woman is very rare like a white crow:
“Finding a good woman among women is similar to finding a white crow among a hundred crows." [Sahih Bukhari, Ahmad b. Hanbal’s Musnad, Nisa'I, quoted by al-Ghazali]
8. Most of the dwellers of Hell are women:
The Prophet said, “I looked at Paradise and found poor people forming the majority of its inhabitants; and I looked at Hell and saw that the majority of its inhabitants were women.” [Sahih Bukhari 3241 & Sahih Bukhari 5196]
9. Woman advances and retires in the shape of a devil:
Jabir reported that Allah's Messenger saw a woman, and so he came to his wife, Zainab, as she was tanning a leather and had sexual intercourse with her. He then went to his Companions and told them: The woman advances and retires in the shape of a devil, so when one of you sees a woman, he should come to his wife, for that will repel what he feels in his heart. [muslim 1403a]
10. Women are a source of seduction and evil:
The Prophet said, "The life of the world is sweet and green. Allah makes you generations succeeding one another so that He may try you in respect of your actions. So beware of the beguilements of the world and those of women. The first trial of Banu Israel was through women". [riyadussalihin 70]
The Messenger of Allah stood up to deliver a sermon and one of the things that he said was: “This world is fresh and sweet, and Allah will make your successive generations therein, so look at what you do and beware of (the temptations of) this world and beware of (the temptations of) women.” [ibnmajah 4000]
The Prophet said, “women are the snares of the devil.” [A-Jarrahi, Kashf al-Khafa’]
11. Women are the worst form of Fitnah (affliction/trial):
The Prophet said, “I have not left among the people after me, a Fitnah more harmful upon men than women.” [tirmidhi 2780 & Sahih Bukhari 5096]
12. A nation fails if its ruler is a woman:
The Prophet said, “A nation is doomed if it is led by a woman.” The full hadith reported by Abu Bakra reads as follows: During the battle of Al-Jamal, Allah benefited me with a Word (I heard from the Prophet). When the Prophet heard the news that the people of the Persia had made the daughter of Khosrau their Queen (ruler), he said, "Never will succeed such a nation as makes a woman their ruler." [Sahih Bukhari 92/50]
13. Women are one of the bad omens:
Allah's Messenger said "If there is any evil omen in anything, then it is in the woman, the horse and the house." [Sahih Bukhari 2859 & abudawud 3921]
14. Women are inferior in intellect and religion:
The Prophet said, “O women folk! You should give charity and be diligent in seeking Allah's forgiveness because I have seen (i.e., on the Night of the Ascension to the highest heavens) that dwellers of the Hell are women.” A woman amongst them said: "Why is it that the majority of the dwellers of Hell are women?” The Prophet replied, “You curse frequently and are ungrateful to your husbands. In spite of your lacking in wisdom and failing in religion, you are depriving the wisest of men of their intelligence.” Upon this the woman asked: “What is the deficiency in our wisdom and in our religion?” He replied, “Your lack of wisdom can be well judged from the fact that the evidence of two women is equal to that one man. You do not offer Salat (prayer) for some days and you do not fast (the whole of) Ramadan sometimes (because of period), it is a deficiency in religion.” [riyadussalihin 1879 & Sahih Bukhari 1462]
Allah's Messenger said, "Many amongst men reached (the level of) perfection but none amongst the women reached this level except Asia, Pharaoh's wife, and Mary, the daughter of `Imran. And no doubt, the superiority of `Aisha to other women is like the superiority of Tharid (i.e. a meat and bread dish) to other meals." [Sahih Bukhari 3411]
Perhaps the hadiths most demeaning to women are the ones like the above that assert that women are deficient in intellect and religion.
15. The whole of a woman is a private part:
The Prophet said, “The (whole of a) woman is Awrah (private part), so when she goes out, the Shaitan seeks to tempt her.” [tirmidhi 12/28]
16. Women are degraded and lined up with animals:
The Messenger of 'Allah said, “When any one of you stands for prayer … and in case there is not before him (a thing) equal to the back of the saddle, his prayer would be cut off by (passing of an) ass, woman, and black dog. … (on asking what feature is there in a black dog which distinguish it from the red dog and the yellow dog, he said:) The black dog is a devil.” [muslim 510a & muslim 511]
Narrated `Aisha: The things which annul the prayers were mentioned before me. They said, "Prayer is annulled by a dog, a donkey and a woman (if they pass in front of the praying people)." I said, "You have made us (i.e. women) dogs. I saw the Prophet praying while I used to lie in my bed between him and the Qibla. Whenever I was in need of something, I would slip away for I disliked to face him." [Sahih Bukhari 511]
All these Hadith depict women as inferior to men and place them in a degrading and disgraceful position in society. They reflect the patriarchal context of the society of that time.
17. Women are treatable like inferiors and objects:
Narrated Abu Usaid: We went out with the Prophet to a garden called Ash-Shaut till we reached two walls between which we sat down. The Prophet said, "Sit here," and went in (the garden). The Jauniyya (a lady from Bani Jaun) had been brought and lodged in a house in a date-palm garden in the home of Umaima bint An- Nu`man bin Sharahil, and her wet nurse was with her. When the Prophet entered upon her, he said to her, "Give me yourself (in marriage) as a gift." She said, "Can a princess give herself in marriage to an ordinary man?" The Prophet raised his hand to pat her so that she might become tranquil. She said, "I seek refuge with Allah from you." He said, "You have sought refuge with One Who gives refuge. Then the Prophet came out to us and said, "O Abu Usaid! Give her two white linen dresses to wear and let her go back to her family (i.e. she is divorced before consummation of the marriage)". [Sahih Bukhari 68/5]
18. Wives have no right over their husbands other than food and clothing:
The Messenger of Allah said (on the Farewell Sermon), “Fear Allah concerning women! Verily you have taken them on the security of Allah, and intercourse with them has been made lawful unto you by words of Allah. You too have right over them, and that they should not allow anyone to sit on your bed whom you do not like. But if they do that, you can chastise them but not severely. Their rights upon you are that you should provide them with food and clothing in a fitting manner.” [muslim 1218a & tirmidhi 1163]
19. Women are like captives and domestic animals:
The Messenger of Allah said (on the Farewell Sermon), “If they do, Allah has given you leave to debar them, send them from your beds, or (finally) strike them in a way that does no harm. But if they desist, and obey you, then you must provide for them and clothe them fittingly. The women who live with you are like captives, unable to manage for themselves: you took them as a trust from Allah, and enjoyed their sex as lawful through a word (legal ruling) from Allah...”. [Musnad 19774]
The Messenger of Allah said (on the Farewell Sermon), “God permits you to shut them in separate rooms and to beat them, but not severely. If they abstain from (evil), they have the right to their food and clothing in accordance with custom (bi’l- ma‘rūf). Treat women well, for they are (like) domestic animals ('awan) with you and do not possess anything for themselves.” [Hadith of Ibn Ḥumayd – Salamah – Ibn Isḥāq – ‘Abdallāh b. Abī Najīḥ. Extract from the account of the sermon collected by the early historian Ibn Ishaq, as quoted in Ibn Hisham's Sirah an-Nabawiyah and at-Tabari's Tarikh]
All hadiths of the final farewell sermon have different details on what the Prophet said, yet they all agree that women have no rights except food and clothing and should be beaten when required. Thus all different versions of the farewell Last Sermon contain violence and degrading of women to some degree. Disgraceful indeed!
Chapter 16
Obey the God and Obey the messenger
This words of the Almighty “Obey God and obey the messenger” is the most favorite for the followers of the sects, they somehow see this verse as “اطیعوا الله و اطیعوا البخاری / Obey God and obey Bukhari”. As we saw in the previous sections the books of man-made Hadiths can’t be the words of Muhammad, then how can we obey the messenger?
1) To answer that, first we need to know what the messenger himself followed according to the God?
[46:9] Say: "I am no different from the other messengers, nor do I know what will happen to me or to you. I only follow what is inspired to me. I am no more than a clear warner"
What’s inspired to Muhammad?
[6:19] Say: "Which is the greatest testimony?" Say: "God is witness between me and you, and He has inspired to me this Quran that I may warn you with it and whoever it reaches, that you are bearing witness that with God are other gods!" Say: "I do not bear witness!" Say: "He is only One god, and I am innocent of what you have set up!"
So the only inspiration that Muhammad followed was Quran. Did he use anything other than Quran to warn people such as his own personal words and opinions?
[21:45] Say: "I am only warning you with the inspiration." But the deaf do not hear the call when they are being warned.
Nope, he didn’t. He used only the Quran. What about Halal/Haram, what did Muhammad use as a source of judge?
[4:105] We have revealed to you the BOOK with the truth that you may JUDGE between the people by that which God has shown you (QURAN), and do not be an advocate for the treacherous.
[4:127] And they seek a ruling (FATWA/فتوا) regarding the women, say: "GOD will give you a RULING regarding them...
[5:48] And We have sent down to you the BOOK with the truth, authenticating what is between your hands of the Book and superseding it. So JUDGE between them by what God has sent down, and do not follow their desires from what has come to you of the truth.
So Muhammad used only Quran as a Judge and he was delivering the God’s Fatwa to people with Quran. Do we have any Quranic proof that indicates Muhammad followed something other than the Quran? Nope.
So basically prophet Muhammad was the first hardcore hadith rejector Quranist leader:
Follow what has been brought down to you (Quran) from your Lord and do not follow any allies besides Him. [7:3]
"I (Muhammad) follow that which is revealed to me. Were I to disobey my Lord, I would be liable to the chastisement of a terrible day." [10:15]
2) Prophet Muhammad is dead and a dead messenger isn’t a messenger, it’s dust. how can we obey the messenger Now according to the God?
[39:71] Those who rejected will be driven to hell in groups. When they reach it, and its gates are opened, its guards will say to them: "Did you not receive messengers from among you, who recited to you the Verses (Ayat) of your Lord, and warned you about meeting this day?" They said, "Yes, but the promise of retribution was destined to be upon the ingrates." [20:134] And if We had destroyed them with a punishment before him, they would have said, "Our Lord, why did You not send to us a messenger so we could have followed Your verses before we were humiliated and disgraced?"
[7:35] O children of Adam, if there come to you messengers from among you relating to you My verses (Ayati), then whoever fears Allah and reforms, there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve.
Simply by obeying the verses they bring and we will be saved. All of the verses that start with “Say/قل” are the only true Hadiths of prophet Muhammad that’s authorized by the God, obey them if you want to obey the messenger.
3) What about the verse where Muhammad is introduced as “Good example/اسوه حسنه” in it?
A good example has been set for you in the messenger of God for one who seeks God and the Last Day, and who remembers God frequently. [33:21]
The words in 33:21 are very specific in pinpointing the capacity in which the messenger has set a good example. The good example lies in his constant thinking of God and how he sought God and the Last Day. Sadly, the followers of the hadith have exaggerated the very specific meaning of the "good example", from being an example of one who constantly thinks of God and the Last Day, into an example of how to eat, which foot to use to enter the toilet, which side to sleep on, how to urinate and other ridiculous trivial matters!
If “good example” means we shall follow Hadith books, where are the prophet Abraham’s Hadith books and those with him?
[60:4] A good example has been set for you by Abraham and those with him.
4) God asserts in the Quran that the only Sunna (way) is the Sunna of God. Nowhere in the Quran is there any mention of the sunna of Muhammad or anyone else:
You will find that there is no substitute for the Sunna of God. [33:62] (also 35:43, 48:23).
The Sunna of God is described from the verse 6:151 down to 153.
5) A messenger’s only duty is to deliver the message:
Obey God and obey the messenger, and beware: if you turn away, then know that the sole duty of Our messenger is the clear delivery (of the message of God). [5:92]
The word 'messenger' is derived from the word 'message'. A messenger delivers a message. If there were no message there would be no messenger. We never read anywhere in the Quran words such as "Obey God and obey Muhammad" or obey Jesus, or Moses. The words used are always "obey the messenger". This is to emphasise that it is the "message" of God that is to be obeyed and not the personal words or views of the messenger.
The confirmation that the obedience is related to the "message" and not the person is further reinforced in the Quranic words which assert that the only duty of the messenger is to deliver God's message:
The sole duty of the messenger is the delivery (of God's message), and God knows what you reveal and what you conceal. [5:99]
6) God asserts that prophet Muhammad was warned not to teach any other teachings, or to falsely attribute anything other than the Quran to God, or he would incur severe punishment from God:
It is a revelation (Quran) from the Lord of the worlds. Had he (Muhammad) falsely attributed any sayings to Us, We would have grabbed him by the right hand, and We would have severed his aorta. None of you would be able to prevent it. [69:43- 47]
7) obeying the messenger does not mean obeying books written more than 200 years after the death of the prophet which are full of lies and fabrications attributed to the prophet, and which contain countless violations and contradictions with the Holy Quran. The command to "obey God and the messenger" is one and the same; it means that the believers must follow the Quran that came out of Muhammad's mouth, all of the Quran, and nothing but the Quran. Ultimately, following prophet Muhammad means following the light that was brought down to him from God:
So those who have believed in him, honoured him, supported him and followed the Light which was brought down with him (Quran); they are the successful ones. [7:157]
8) History is his story, it’s written by the winners. Just because it’s written in the hadith books that Muhammad did this and that, doesn’t mean he actually did them. We don’t know! To know it we have to time travel and witness it. Are we required to uphold what we have no knowledge about it according to Quran?
[17:36] And do not uphold what you have no knowledge of; for the hearing, eyesight, and heart, all these you are responsible for.
Chapter 17
Were the prophets innocent?
Were they? Should we follow their lifestyle or the message they brought according to Quran?
Quran never says they are prefect and says they are humans like you and from you and capable of Sins, in fact some of them did horrible mistakes!
- Moses killed a person:
[28:15] And he (Moses) entered the city unexpectedly, without being noticed by the people. He found in it two men who were fighting, one was from his clan, and the other was from that of his enemy. So the one who was from his clan called on him for help against his enemy, whereby Moses punched him, killing him. He said: "This is from the work of the devil; he is an enemy that clearly misleads."
- Jonah (Yunus) deserted his mission in Anger:
[21:87] The one with N, when he went off in anger, and he thought that We would not be able to take him. Then he called out in the darkness: "There is no God but You! Glory to You, I was of the wicked!"
Though the God forgave them later. prophet Muhammad was also a human like you and me, and made mistakes:
- prohibited what the god didn’t prohibit:
O prophet, why do you make unlawful what God has made lawful for you, seeking to please your wives? God is Forgiver, Merciful. [66:1]
- frowned a blind poor person and concerned about a rich person instead (money talked first):
[80:1-10] He (Muhammad) frowned and turned away. When the blind one came to him. And what makes you know, perhaps he is seeking to purify? Or to remember, so the remembrance will benefit him? As for the one who was rich. You were addressing yourself to him. And why does it concern you that he does not want to purify? And as for the one who came to you seeking. While he was concerned. You were too occupied for him.
- concerned about people instead of God:
[33:37] And you (Muhammad) said to the one who was blessed by God, and blessed by you: "Keep your wife and reverence God," and you hid inside yourself what God wished to proclaim. And you were concerned with the people, while God was more deserving that you be concerned with.
- was tempted to follow other than Quran:
[17:73-75] And they nearly diverted you (Muhammad) from what We inspired to you so that you would fabricate something different against Us, and then they would have taken you as a friend! And if We had not made you stand firm, you were about to lean towards them a little bit. Then, We would have made you taste double the retribution in this life and double the retribution in death. And then you would not find for yourself any victor against Us.
Prophet Muhammad was astray before prophethood and got saved by God:
[40:66] Say: "I (Muhammad) have been prohibited from serving those whom you are calling upon besides God, since the proofs have come to me from my Lord. And I have been commanded to submit to the Lord of the worlds."
[93:7] And He (God) found you lost, and He guided you (Muhammad).
[42:52] And thus, We inspired to you (Muhammad) a revelation of Our command. You did not know what was the Book, nor what was faith (ایمان). Yet, We made this a light to guide whoever We wish from among Our servants. Surely, you guide to a straight path.
[47:19] So know that there is no god besides God, and ask forgiveness of your sins and also for the believing males and the believing females. And God knows your movements and your place of rest.
[48:1-2] We have given you a clear conquest. So that God may forgive your present sins, and those past, and so that He may complete His blessings upon you, and guide you on a straight path.
Muhammad could never make any laws beside God:
And had he attributed anything falsely to Us. We would have seized him by the right. Then, We would have severed his life- line. [69:44-46]
Just Like us All of the prophets will be judged by God at the Day of Judgement:
[7:6] We will question those to whom We have sent (Book), and We will question the messengers.
These Quranic evidences doesn't mean they are bad people, they tried their best to be Good, in fact, God is trying to tell us we shouldn't make them our idols and worship them or their lifestyle, their interaction with people, the way they use toilet or grow beard, etc, isn't our business!
The only business we have is following their message! They are infallible only in delivering Message, nothing more:
[72:28] So that He knows that they have delivered the messages of their Lord, and He surrounds all that is with them, and He has counted the number of all things.
Therefore we can trust only The message they left, not any other man-made books.
Just like us prophet Muhammad had to hear and obey and was just as accountable:
[45:18] Then We have established you on the path of things; so follow it and do not follow the desires of those who do not know.
[10:15] "I (Muhammad) follow that which is revealed to me. Were I to disobey my Lord, I would be liable to the chastisement of a terrible day."
Muhammad the “man” was required to follow Muhammed the “messenger” and the God is the one who explains Quran:
[75:16-19] Do not move your tongue with it to make haste. It is for Us to gather and relate it. So when We relate it, you (Muhammad) shall follow its revelation. Then it is for Us to explain it.
This distinction is important and suggests why Quran never actually says “follow Muhammed” by name.
Chapter 18
Quran and Hikmah
[2:129] “Our Lord, and raise among them a messenger to recite to them Your revelations, teach them the scripture and wisdom, and purify them. You are the Almighty, Most Wise.”
Some sectarians claim the word “Hikma/Wisdom” in this verse is Sunna of Muhammad and it’s separate from the scripture! Let’s see if it’s true:
[33:34] And recall all that is being recited in your homes of the revelations of God and the wisdom. God is Sublime, Expert.
1) ((Hikmah/Wisdom)) is Quran or something in the Quran or you will be granted by reading the Quran:
[10:1] ALR, these are the signs of the Book of WISDOM.
[31:2] These are the signs of the Book of WISDOM.
[36:2] And the Quran of WISDOM.
[44:2-4] And the clarifying Book. We have sent it down in a blessed night—We were surely to warn. In it is a distinction for all decree of WISDOM.
2) [Quran 2:269] He grants 'al-hikmah' (wisdom) to whom He wills, and whoever is granted 'al-hikmah' (wisdom) has indeed been granted much good, but none will remember except those who possess intelligence.
The words "whomever He wills" in this verse indicates that God bestows wisdom upon any of the believers and not just His messengers. So Hikmah isn't Sunnah of Muhammad.
3) Did Allah give Sunna of Muhammad to Jesus?
[Quran 5:110] I taught you (Jesus) 'al-kitab' (Book/Scripture), 'al-hikmah' (the wisdom), the Torah and the Injeel.
4) God commands the prophet to rule and arbitrate between the people with ONLY the QURAN and NOTHING but the QURAN:
[Quran 4:105] We brought down to you the 'kitab' (Book) with the truth so that you may judge among the people in accordance with what God has shown you.
“Hikmah” simply means “Wisdom” and can never be man-made lies and hearsays.
Chapter 19
Sectarianism
Some sectarians such as Sunnies believes their sect and subsects ain’t actually “sects” but are “Schools of thought”. Let’s see what their hadith book and one of the great scholars say about that claim:
Shaykh Ibn Taymiyyah said: "This Hadith is authentic and is well-known in the books of Sunnah and in the Masaanid (plural of Musnad), such as the Sunnah of Abu Daawood, At-Tirmithi, An-Nasaa’i, and others. The wording of the Hadith is as follows:
'The Jews were split up into seventy-one sects, all of whom will be in Hellfire except one; the Christians were split up into seventy-two sects, all of whom will be in Hellfire except one; and my nation will split up into seventy-three SECTS, all of whom will be in Hellfire except one.'
Another narration reads: "They asked: 'O prophet of Allah, who will be the saved SECT?' He replied: 'Those who will remain on the path which I and my companions are on today.'"
Yet, another narration reads: "They are the Jamaa’ah (the main body of Muslims); the Hand of Allah is with the Jamaa’ah."
Now we understood that "Ahle Sunnah va al Jamma'ah" in other word “Sunni” sect isn't School of thought, but it's a SECT and Ibn Taymiyyah confirmed that they are SECT by authenticating the hadith, and Sunni SECT is even made of more sub sects (Hanafi, Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali). Let's see what God says about Sunni Sects in Quran!
1) Sunni, Shia, Ahmadi, Khavarij don't belong to prophet Muhammad's Ummah:
[6:159] Those who divide themselves into sects do not belong with you (Muhammad). Their judgment rests with ALLAH, then He will inform them of everything they had done.
2) Sectarianism is what Mushriks (those who attribute partner to the god) do:
[30:31-32] You shall submit to Him, reverence Him, uphold the Salat, and do not ever fall into Shirk. like those who divide their religion into sects; each party rejoicing with what they have (Sunni with Bukhari, Shia with al kafi).
3) Indeed the sectarian Sunnies and Shias have jealousy and resentment among themselves:
[42:14] Ironically, they broke up into sects only after the knowledge had come to them, due to jealousy and resentment among themselves. If it were not for a predetermined decision from your Lord to respite them for a definite interim, they would have been judged immediately. Indeed, the later generations who inherited the scripture are full of doubts.
It doesn't matter what a person calls his/her sect, it is not authorized by the god. The god condemns all sects.
How can 2 billion sectarian be in the wrong path?
Well, this is also the question of a Christian from Muslims! They want to know how can bigger religion with more population and older history and more scholars and books can be in the wrong path?
In fact according to Quran the population is nothing to be proud of, because the Majority of the believers are Mushrik:
[12:106] The majority of those who believe in the God do not do so without committing shirk.
And Large number doesn't prove being in the right path:
[7:48] Your large numbers did not avail you, nor did your arrogance!
Satan made it!
[17:62] He (Satan) said, "Shall I expose for You that thing You have honoured over me? If You respite me until the Day of Resurrection, I will claim all his descendants, except for a few".
And the people can’t bring excuse that they have followed the fabricated Sunna and hadith transmitted by their fathers and forefathers:
[2:170] If they are told, "Follow what God has sent down (Quran)" they say, "No, we will follow what we found our fathers doing!" What if their fathers did not reason much and were not guided?
[7:38-39] He said: "Enter with the multitude of nations before you from mankind and Jinn to the Fire!" Every time a nation entered, it cursed its sister nation, until they are all gathered inside it; then the last of them says to the first: "Our Lord, these are the ones who have misguided us, so give them double the retribution of the Fire!" He replied: "Each will receive double, but you do not know." And the first of them said to the last: "You have no preference over us, so taste the retribution for what you have earned!"
Most of the people on the earth are destined for hell, if you find yourself among the majority and not minority, know that you are in the wrong path:
[19:73] When our revelations are recited to them, clearly, those who disbelieve say to those who believe, "Which of us is more prosperous? Which of us is in the majority?"
[6:116] If you obey the majority of those on earth they will lead you away from God's path; that is because they follow conjecture, and that is because they only guess.
[12:103] And majority of the people, even if you are diligent, will not believe.
[3:110] from among them are the believers, but the majority are the wicked.
[16:83] They fully recognize God's blessings, then deny them; majority of them are disbelievers.
[9:8] They seek to please you with their words, but their hearts deny, and the majority of them are wicked.
[29:63] And if you ask them: "Who sends down water from the sky, thus reviving the land after its death?" They will say: "God." Say: "Praise be to God." But majority of them do not comprehend.
[12:38] That is the blessings of God over us and over the people, but majority of the people are not thankful.
[10:60] And what will those who invent lies about God think on the Day of Resurrection? God is with great bounty to the people, but majority of them are not thankful.
[10:36] majority of them only follow conjecture. While conjecture does not avail against the truth in anything. God is aware of what they do.
Chapter 20
The End
We have reached the End, congratulations! Now you know the answer of the question at the very beginning of this book. You must be one of the favorite creatures of the God because he somehow made this book reach to your hands and opened your heart to the truth of His revelations. A few people in this world gets granted by such a blessing. So go:
[26:214] And warn your closest kin.
At least by gifting this free book to them. Let’s try to save as much as people we can. No need to debate or waste your time and energy, sending this book to people around you is free of cost (unless you live in a very extremist country, in that case the cost might be losing your life, so be careful to not get accused of apostasy).
If still it is the other way for you, then maybe the questions below help you to reconsider about your position before it’s too late:
1. Who authorized Bukhari, Muslim, Abu Daud, Tirmidhi, Ibn Maja, Al-Nasai and etc to collect the Hadiths?

6. Why didn’t Prophet sign any documents himself and say these Hadiths were divine?
7. If the Hadiths allows for something the Quran does not – or forbids what the Quran does not forbid – what would you do then?
8. How can the Hadiths of Muhammad be the best of the guidance when Allah clearly says that the Prophet Muhammad cannot guide (28:56)?

13. Does Allah say that we must believe in the Messenger and follow hadiths in which so many sayings are fabricated?
14. Which verse of the Quran command Muslims to follow Hadith & Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad?
15. Why call a religious book Sahih Bukhari or Sahih Muslim instead of Sahih Traditions of Muhammad if the hadiths came from Prophet Muhammad?
16. If hadiths are supposed to explain the Quran, why did they leave out the scientific facts found in its verses which later non-Muslims had to show to the Muslims?
17. If Bukhari hadiths are supposed to explain Quran then why did Bukhari leave out the following 28 Surahs: 23, 27, 29, 35, 51, 57, 58, 64, 67, 69, 70, 73, 76, 81, 82, 86, 88, 89, 90, 94, 100, 101, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, and 109?
18. Where are the original manuscripts of Bukhari showing the application of hadith science in his work?
19. If Bukhari’s collected hadiths is preserved, why was his first biography allowed to be lost?
20. Why did Bukhari hear 600,000 hadiths from 1,000 men while he could ask from his admirer and teacher Ibn Hanbal who knew millions of hadiths which he tried to even live passionately and almost got him Prophet hood?
21. What is the definition of Sahih according to Bukhari?
22. How many people went on tour with Mr Bukhari to collect the hadiths and witnessed it?

24. Who sponsored hadith collection tours of Mr Bukhari?
25. Hadiths say “kill ex-Muslims”. Does this mean in order to stay alive they should “pretend” to be Muslim? Isn’t this forcing of deception?
26. Science of hadith talks about investigating narrators truthfulness. What tools did they use to analyze the truthfulness of people died thousands of years ago?

36. Out of 600,000, only 7275 (with repetitions) were seen as authentic by Bukhari. Does this mean the early Muslims were following a huge amount of false hadiths?
37. Can you swear that all hadiths found in the books are true? If not why do you tell others to accept them?
38. If Daeef or Weak hadiths have no importance and credibility then:

(B) Why these books are called SAHIH with these Daeef or Weak hadiths?
39. How do you know that prophet Muhammad issued that statement, did you time travel?
40. Who will confirm you that prophet Muhammad said so, can you call him and ask him now?
41. According to history Uthman the 3rd caliph distributed the Quran to other nations. This is prior to Bukhari’s existence. So he gave only the Quran, how did these nations understand Quran without Hadith books as Prophet had died and no explanation (Hadith & Sunnah) was written down?
After reading this whole book, if you still ain’t sure about the truth presented to you in this book. Then I can do nothing except putting my head on this verses:
[6:35] If their rejection gets to be too much for you, you should know that even if you dug a tunnel through the earth, or climbed a ladder into the sky, and produced a miracle for them (they still would not believe). Had God willed, He could have guided them, unanimously. Therefore, do not behave like the ignorant ones.
[18:57] And who is more wicked than he who was reminded of the revelations of his Lord but he turned away from them, and he forgot what his hands had done. We have made veils upon their hearts from understanding it, and a deafness in their ears. And if you invite them to the guidance, they will never be guided.
