Allah sends down verses and claims that the Quran is not complete and not clear.
Allah says that some verses in the Quran—no one knows their meaning except Allah.
Dear readers,
Today we will look at the confusion that fills the Quran, which many scholars claim is straightforward, while Allah Himself contradicts them and sends down verses saying that the Quran is not straightforward and is not clear.
First, let’s start by looking at the verses that say the Quran is clear and its verses are explained as guidance for those who are guided.
Surat HUD (11:1)
Alif Lam Ra. This is a Book whose verses are set clear, then explained in detail, from One Who is Wise and All-Aware.
Surat Al An’am (6:114)
Shall I seek a judge other than Allah, while He it is who has sent down to you the Book explained in detail? Those unto whom We gave the Book know that it is revealed from your Lord in truth, so be not you of the doubters.
Surat An-Nahl (16:89)
And (warn of) the Day when We will raise up from every nation a witness against them from amongst themselves; and We will bring you as a witness against these. And We have sent down to you the Book explaining everything, a guidance, mercy, and glad tidings for Muslims.
The above verses claim that the Quran is clear and its verses are explained in detail. This means that, when reading the Quran, you should not have questions or find confusion in the verses revealed by Allah.
BUT THESE CLAIMS CONTRADICT THE CONFUSION FOUND IN THE FOLLOWING VERSE, WHICH CLAIMS THAT THERE ARE VERSES IN THE QURAN WHOSE MEANING IS KNOWN ONLY TO ALLAH
Let’s read that verse:
Surat Al Imran (3:7)
He it is Who has sent down to you the Book; in it are verses that are precise—they are the foundation of the Book—and others ambiguous. As for those in whose hearts is deviation, they follow what is ambiguous of it, seeking discord and seeking its interpretation. And no one knows its interpretation except Allah. But those firm in knowledge say, "We believe in it. All [of it] is from our Lord." And none will be reminded except those of understanding.
Dear brothers and sisters, this is another disaster in Islam. In Surat Al Imran, which was revealed in Medina, Allah says:
i. Within the Quran there are “muhkam” (precise) verses whose meaning is clear;
ii. There are also allegorical verses which those who follow seek discord and search for their meaning;
iii. There are verses whose meaning no one knows except Allah.
Friends, this Surat 3:7 contradicts Surat HUD 11:1, Surat Al An’am 6:114, and Surat An-Nahl 16:89, which claim that the verses of the Quran are clear and explained in detail.
So, which should Muslims follow?
What do Muslims believe in this Quran that contradicts itself and is not clear?
Why does Allah contradict Himself in these verses above?
Or was the problem Muhammad, who could neither read nor write and failed to memorize Gabriel’s instructions?
Furthermore, why did Allah reveal verses whose meaning only He knows?
How do these verses benefit a Muslim?
What benefit do Muslims get when reading these verses, knowing that their meaning is known only to Allah?
Finally, I’d like to understand: how do Muslims know that the verses they read are the ones they are supposed to understand, knowing that Allah set a trap by saying there are verses in the Quran whose meaning only Allah knows?
Perhaps this is why Muslims fight among themselves, like ISIS, Sunni vs Shia, etc.
Maybe that’s why the Quran needs the help of Sahih Hadith and the Sunnah of Muhammad.
This is another disaster in the religion of Allah.
Why did Allah reveal verses that only He understands?
Welcome to Jesus, the living One, who brought us the Holy Spirit as our Guide.
John 16:13-15
But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on His own; He will speak only what He hears, and He will tell you what is yet to come. He will glorify me because it is from me that he will receive what he will make known to you. All that belongs to the Father is mine. That is why I said the Spirit will receive from me what he will make known to you.
John 16:26
But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.
1 John 2:27
As for you, the anointing you received from him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about all things and as that anointing is real, not counterfeit—just as it has taught you, remain in him.
Dear readers, Jesus has already made it clear that if you follow Him, you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit, and that same Holy Spirit will live within us and will teach us all things.
Come to Jesus.
God bless you all.
