Is Quran from Satan?

A common allegation, which was raised by polytheists of Makka, responded by Quran is again raised by Christian brothers:

"Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was under the influence of Satan, who dictated Quran."

Let's analyze this claim, allegation logically. As it is said the "the taste of pudding is in eating".
Jesus Christ said:

Matthew 7:16-18
"You will know them by their fruits. Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes nor figs from thistles, are they? "So every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit. "A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, nor can a bad tree produce good fruit.…

Matthew 12:33
"Make a tree good and its fruit will be good, or make a tree bad and its fruit will be bad, for a tree is recognized by its fruit.

Matthew 12:35
A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him.

If Quran was from Satan, the teachings should reflect the same, there should be praises for Satan and appreciation not curses. All messengers of God from Noah, Abraham, Jacob, Moses, to Jesus Christ preached : Obedience and worship of One God. Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) did not preach worship of 2 or 3 gods or Gods. His message is the same monotheistic: Obedience and surrender to the will of God [one word for it in Arabic word ISLAM] hence it is rightly claimed that the religion of all TRUE messengers of God is same. God is "All Knowing" how can a true God change His basic message? Change was only in law. Shari'a according to the people and time. Now it stands resolved for ever for humanity.

The Quran makes it clear that God is the author of the Quran…not Satan:


26:210-212:
The devils did not bring it (the Quran) down. It is not meet for them, nor is it in their power, Lo! verily they are banished from the hearing.

55:1-2:
The Most Beneficent (Allah)! Has taught (you mankind) the Qur’an (by His Mercy).

The Quran opposes Satan as a staunch enemy…

2:168 :
O mankind! Eat of that which is lawful and wholesome in the earth, and follow not the footsteps of the devil. Lo! he is an open enemy for you.

7:200 :
And if a slander from the devil wound thee, then seek refuge in Allah. Lo! He is Hearer, Knower.

16:98:
“Whenever you read the Qur’an seek refuge with Allah from Satan, the accursed”

36:60:
 Did I not charge you, O ye sons of Adam, that ye worship not the devil – Lo! he is your open foe! -

Now anyone who studies the Quran and knows about its scientific miracles , prophecies , falsification tests etc. can do nothing but conclude that it came from a supernatural source, the God.

If Jesus Christ heard such allegation he would have rebuked it just like how he rebuked the Pharisees who accused him of casting out Satan with the power of Satan…

Mark 3:22-26:

"And the teachers of the law who came down from Jerusalem said, “He is possessed by Beelzebub[c]! By the prince of demons he is driving out demons.”  So Jesus called them and spoke to them in parables: “How can Satan drive out Satan? If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.  If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand. And if Satan opposes himself and is divided, he cannot stand; his end has come."

The story is repeated in the gospel of Matthew…

Matthew 12:24-26: 24
But when the Pharisees heard this, they said, “It is only by Beelzebub,[d] the prince of demons, that this fellow drives out demons.” 25Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself will be ruined, and every city or household divided against itself will not stand. 26If Satan drives out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then can his kingdom stand?

Devil tempted Adam, Eve got them out of gardens of bliss , tempted Jesus Christ but was rebuked:

“Away from me, Satan! For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.”[Matthew 4:10]

The disappointed Satan later got Paul in vision [as did David Koresh and Jim Jones] and possessed him. It is not allegation its proved from Bible:

Paul under Satanic influence:


According to 2 Corinthians 12:6-9, Paul, in the Bible says:
“But I refrain, so no one will think more of me than is warranted by what I do or say, or because of these surpassingly great revelations. Therefore, in order to keep me from becoming conceited, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. ” -2 Corinthians 12:6-7

”According to ‘Saint’ Paul, God sent a Messenger of Satan to teach him the reality of grace.

If it is a Messenger from God,why then, does Paul call it a Messenger of Satan?
Since it is from God, shouldn’t it be a Messenger of God? Since Paul calls Messengers sent by Christ to teach him grace, Satan, and since Paul is tormented and Christ is unwilling to remove the ‘Messenger of Satan’,

then we must conclude that Paul was a man possessed by some demon. His teachings contradict Jesus Christ, so it suffice to prove the Satanic influence:

"A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him."(Matthew 12:35)


The dubious VISION of Paul and conversion story is exposed due to conflicting account at Act, chapters 9,22 & 26. Then the influence of Messenger of Satan, resulted in such doctrines which Jesus Chrsit never preached, he said:

Matthew 7:21-26:
“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Master, Master ‘will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven; but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will tell me in that day, ‘Master, master didn’t we prophesy in your name, in your name cast out demons, and in your name do many mighty works?’ Then I will tell them, ‘I never knew you. Depart from me, you who work iniquity.‘ “Everyone therefore who hears these words of mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man, who built his house on a rock. The rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house; and it didn’t fall, for it was founded on the rock. Everyone who hears these words of mine, and doesn’t do them will be like a foolish man, who built his house on the sand.”

“For this people’s heart has become calloused; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts and turn, and I would heal them.” [Matthew 13:15]

“But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand” [Matthew 7:26]

“And He said to them, “Rightly did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written: ‘THIS PEOPLE HONORS ME WITH THEIR LIPS, BUT THEIR HEART IS FAR AWAY FROM ME. ‘And in vain they pay reverence [Greek sebomai sebomai, revere, worship, adore] to me as they teach doctrines of commandments of the sons of men.’ “Neglecting the commandment of God, you hold to the tradition of men.” [Mark 7:6-10]

These arguments should satisfy our Christian brothers and create awareness in their hearts to follow true teachings of Jesus Christ not of the Paul.

"But nay! I swear by all that ye see . And all that ye see not. That it is indeed the speech of an illustrious messenger. It is not poet's speech - little is it that ye believe! Nor diviner's speech - little is it that ye remember! It [Quran] is a revelation from the Lord of the Worlds.  And if he had invented false sayings concerning Us, We assuredly had taken him by the right hand. And then severed his life-artery, And not one of you could have held Us off from him. And lo! it is a warrant unto those who ward off (evil). And lo! We know that some among you will deny (it). And lo! it is indeed an anguish for the disbelievers. And lo! it is absolute truth. So glorify the name of thy Tremendous Lord. (Quran; 69:38-52)

Islamic Revival اسلام کی تجدید

Unlike the earlier tradition of Islamic philosophy from al-Farabi to Averroës, which had consciously cultivated political science and investigated the political dimension of philosophy and religion and the relation between philosophy and the community at large, the new approach from its inception lacked genuine interest in these questions, had no appreciation for political philosophy, and had only a benign toleration for the affairs of the world. No worthwhile political philosopher or reformer came up with solution to real problems confronted by Islamic world. The divine guidance in the form of Qur’an and Sunnah of Prophet (peace be upon him) was available so that: “they may ponder its revelations, and that men of understanding may learn lessons from it.”(Qur’an;38:29). But the ‘men of understanding’ were rare.  Centuries have passed but Muslims have failed to correct the historic mistake, to set the priorities right. The result is frustration, extremism, disunity, loss of dignity, self esteem, poverty, deprivation, illiteracy, oppression, economic and political domination by West and others economic giants.

آج کل لوگوں کی زبانوں سے اسلام کی تجدید کی ضرورت کی بات بہت سننے کو ملتی ہے لیکن دین کی تجدید کا مطلب اس میں پیوند کاری نہیں ہے، نہ ایمان کے کسی شعبہ کو نظرانداز کرکے جدید تہذیب کے ساتھ قدم بقدم چلنا ہے۔

اسلامی تجدید کا مفہوم ایک ہی ہو سکتا ہے کہ ماحول، عام جہالت، ذاتی خواہشات اور حکمرانوں کے انحرافات وغیرہ کی وجہ سے اس پر جوگرد پڑ گئی ہو، اسے صاف شفاف کر دیا جائے جیسے پانی کو صاف کرکے پینے کیلئے تیار کیا جاتا ہے۔ رسول اللہ ﷺ نے فرمایا تھا کہ اس علم کو ہرنسل کے مستند لوگ اٹھائیں گے جو اس سے غلوپسندوں کی تحریف، باطل پسندوں کی ایجادات اور جاہلوں کی تاویلات دور کریں گے۔ ان مختصر الفاظ میں رسول اللہ ﷺ نے ساری بات سمیٹ لی ہے۔ قدیم زمانے میں غلو پسند لوگ زندگی سے نفرت کرتے تھے، شادی نہیں کرتے تھے، ہمیشہ روزے رکھتے تھے اور رات رات بھر جاگ کر نمازیں پڑھتے رہتے تھے لیکن اسلام نے انہیں اعتدال اور غلو سے کنارہ کشی کرنا سکھایا۔ ہم دیکھ چکے ہیں کہ قرآن کی بعض سورتوں کے فضائل میں کچھ لوگوں نے حدیثیں گھڑیں جب ان سے کہا گیا کہ یہ کیا کر رہے ہو جبکہ رسول اللہ ﷺ فرما چکے ہیں کہ جس نے مجھ پر جان بوجھ کر جھوٹ باندھا وہ اپنا ٹھکانا جہنم بنالے تو کہنے لگے ہم تو آپؐ کیلئے جھوٹ بول رہے ہیں آپؐ کے خلاف نہیں۔ یہ باطل پسندوں کی ایجاد کی مثال ہے۔ 

یہی صورت دین میں ہر بدعت کی ہے۔ لوگوں نے گھٹیا روایات کو رواج دیکر امت کو ٹھپ کرکے رکھ دیا ہے جبکہ دنیا تیز آندھی کی طرح آگے کی طرف دوڑ رہی ہے۔ رہیں جاہلوں کی تاویلیں تو ہمارے دور نزدیک کی تاریخ میں اس کی کتنی مثالیں ملتی ہیں۔ کچھ دنوں پہلے جزیرہ عرب کے کسی احمق کی کتاب دیکھنے کوملی جس میں اس نے یہ دعویٰ کیا تھا کہ اس کی چالیس سے زیادہ دلیلیں ہیں کہ زمین اپنی جگہ ٹھہری ہوئی ہے اور سورج اس کے اردگرد گردش کر رہا ہے میں نے پڑھا تو معلوم تو معلوم ہوا چالیس سے زیادہ قرآنی آیات کی اوٹ پٹانگ تفسیر کی گئی تھی تاکہ یہ ثابت کیا جا سکے کہ اسلام اور سائنس ایک دوسرے کی ضد ہیں۔ اس طرح کی حرکتیں کبھی نادانی کی بنا پر سرزد ہوتی ہیں کبھی کچھ مفاد پرست لوگ کسی ملت دشمن کے زرخرید آلہ کاربن کرکرتے ہیں۔ تجدید اسلام کا مطلب ہے آسمان سے نازل ہونے والے اصل دین کی طرف لوٹنا۔ اچھا نمونہ اور اعلیٰ مثال تو حضرت محمدؐ اور آپؐ کے صحابہؓ کی سیرت ہی سے لی جا سکتی ہے کیونکہ وہی صحیح اسلام کی نمائندگی کرتے ہیں اور وہی اتباع کے لائق ہیں۔ بعد میں زمانہ گزرنے کے ساتھ انحراف پیدا ہوتا گیا اگر کوئی پچھلی صدی یا اس سے پہلے کی صدی کو نمونہ بنانا چاہے تو صرف کجی تک پہنچے گا کیونکہ انہیں صدیوں کے انحرافات نے ہمیں دنیا میں سب سے پیچھے دھکیل دیا ہے۔ آج انفرادی حکومتوں کی جن برائیوں سے ہم دوچار ہیں وہ کئی صدیوں سے ہمارا پیچھا کر رہی ہیں۔ ہم جس طرز عمل سے روشنی حاصل کر سکتے ہیں وہ حضور رسول اللہ ﷺ اور خلفائے راشدینؓ کے دور کا شورائی نظام ہے، جب حکمران غرور و تکبر سے دور رہتا تھا، حق کے سامنے جھکتا تھا، اہل علم سے مشورہ کرتا تھا اور اپنے آپ کو امت کا خادم سمجھتا تھا۔ جو اپنی مقررہ تنخواہ سے زیادہ نہیں لے سکتا تھا۔ جسے بلاتکلف ٹوک دیا جاتا تھا کہ خداسے ڈرو، جو اپنے خاندان کو عوام کا حصہ سمجھتا تھا، اگر غلطی کرتا تھا تو اپنے آپ کو سزا دیتا تھا جیسا کہ حضرت عمرؓ نے بڑے افسران سے کہا تھا کہ میں نے رسول اللہ ﷺ کو دیکھا ہے کہ خود سے بدلہ دلایا کرتے تھے۔ نظام حکومت کی یہی روایات مالی معاملات، عدالتی نظام اور اجتماعی معاملات میں بھی جاری تھیں بلکہ عبادتی امور میں بھی۔ پھرمسلمان دھیرے دھیرے اس راستے سے دور ہوتے گئے یہاں تک کہ ان کا شمار دنیا میں سب سے پیچھے یعنی تیسری دنیا میں ہونے لگا۔ کیونکہ انہوں نے اپنے نبیؐ کی سنت اور اپنے بزرگوں کی روایات کو بھلا دیا اور دین کی صحیح سمجھ سے دور ہوگئے۔ زمانہ اور حالات کے ساتھ وسائل بھی بدل جاتے ہیں۔ شوریٰ حق ہے اور پہلے اس پر عمل بہت آسان تھا۔ جو لوگ موجود ہوتے تھے ان سے رائے لے لی جاتی تھی۔ لیکن اب اس کیلئے ایک مرتبہ اور منظم نظام چاہیے۔ اب جو لوگ فکر اسلامی کی تجدیدکرنا چاہتے ہیں انہیں ان وسائل پر غور کرنا ہوگا اور وہ صورت اختیار کرنی ہوگی جس سے مقصد حاصل ہو اور اسلام کے محاسن اجاگر ہوں۔ ادھرادھر سے استفادہ کرنے میں بھی کوئی حرج نہیں۔ عالم اسلام میں کتنے ہی المناک واقعات رونما ہو چکے ہیں جن کے خلاف ساری دنیا کی راجدھانیوں میں مظاہرے ہوئے لیکن کسی عرب راجدھانی میں کوئی مظاہرہ نہیں ہوا۔ کیوں ؟ اس لئے کہ ظالمانہ نظام ہائے حکومت کے تحت لوگ اتنے دبائے ہوئے ہیںکہ بول بھی نہیں سکتے ، وہ جانتے ہیں کہ اگر وہ سڑکوں پر نکلے تو گولیوں سے بھون ڈالے جائیں گے۔ ان کی حکومتیں نہیں چاہتی ہیں کہ ان میں اتنی جرأت پیدا ہو۔ اگر آج وہ کسی بیرونی واقعہ کے خلاف احتجاج کیلئے نکلتے ہیں تو کل انہی کے خلاف اٹھ کھڑے ہوں گے اس لئے پہلے ہی سے دروازہ بند رکھنا چاہیے۔ آپ نے دیکھا انفرادی آمرانہ نظام کے رواج اور شورائیت کے فقدان نے معاملہ کہاں تک پہنچا دیا۔ ساری دنیا میں کرپشن کی روک تھام کے انتظامات ہیں۔ اسلامی خصوصاً عرب ممالک میں چند لوگوں کے ہاتھوں میں بے حساب دولت سمٹی ہوئی ہے اور بغیر محنت کی کمائی ہے۔ کیا اس کجی کا اسلام سے کوئی تعلق ہے؟ ہمارے دین نے تو سب سے پہلے بدعنوانی کے خلاف اعلان جنگ کیا تھا پھر ہم نے اس سے بچنے بچانے کیلئے کیا انتظامات کیے؟ کچھ لوگوں نے کبھی کبھی وعظ و تلقین سے کام لے لیا، باقی نے خاموشی ہی میں عافیت سمجھی۔ ہم میں چھوٹی چھوٹی چیزوں پر بھڑکنے والے بہت ہیں، بڑی باتوں پر توجہ دینے والا کوئی نہیں۔ خدا کے علاوہ کسی دوسرے نام پر قسم کھانا تو شرک بتایا جاتا ہے لیکن یہ نہیں بتایاجاتا کہ ریاکاری بھی گناہ ہے اور ظالموں کی خوشامد تو کفر تک پہنچ سکتی ہے۔ اب اگر ہمارے پاس مرض کے علاج کیلئے دوائیں نہیں اور دوسروں سے دوائیں لیں تو لوگ ہم پر الزام لگانے لگتے ہیں۔ سچ تو یہ ہے کہ اسلام کی ترجمانی کے دعویدار بیشتر ناسمجھ ہیں اور وہ اسلام کو زندہ کرنے کے بجائے موت سے ہمکنار کر رہے ہیں۔ ہر میدان میں خود کفالت ناگزیر ہے ۔ بغیر اس کے کوئی قوم کامیاب نہیں ہوسکتی۔ دینی فکر کی تجدید کیلئے پختہ عقل اور پاک دلی درکار ہے۔ وہ تاریخ کی غلطیوں اور کوتاہیوں پر گہری نظر چاہتی ہے۔ وہ کتاب و سنت میں گہری مہارت چاہتی ہے۔ وہ گندی اور پست ذہنیت اور روایت پرستی کی بجائے صائب نظر، بلند خیالی، پاکیزہ ذہنیت اور گہری بصیرت چاہتی ہے۔

Ignorance, Progress & Muslims

Sadly, we are just not prepared to face reality. The reason Muslims have been left so far behind is their refusal to embrace modern education, and to cling to rote learning and dogma. By confusing Western thought and influence with rationality, we think we are better Muslims by rejecting modernity. As a prime example of this, consider the Ottoman refusal to install printing presses when they were first invented. The reason given was that this would result in the mass production of holy texts by machines instead of being calligraphed. Keep reading >>>>

عید مبارک Eid Mubarak


Say, "Who prohibited the nice things GOD has created for His creatures, and the good provisions? Say, "Such provisions are to be enjoyed in this life by those who believe. Moreover, the good provisions will be exclusively theirs on the Day of Resurrection." We thus explain the revelations for people who know. Say, "My Lord prohibits only evil deeds, be they obvious or hidden, and sins, and unjustifiable aggression, and to set up beside GOD powerless idols, and to say about GOD what you do not know." [Quran; 7:32-33]

Eid al-Fitr (عيد الفطر‎ ʻĪd al-Fiṭr], "festival of breaking of the fast"), also called Feast of Breaking the Fast, the Sugar Feast, Bayram (Bajram), the Sweet Festiva and the Lesser Eid, is an important religious holiday celebrated by Muslims worldwide that marks the end of Ramadan, the Islamic holy month of fasting (sawm). This has to do with the communal aspects of the fast, which expresses many of the basic values of the Muslim community; e.g., empathy for the poor, charity, worship, steadfastness, patience etc. Fasting is also believed by some scholars to extol fundamental distinctions, lauding the power of the spiritual realm, while acknowledging the subordination of the physical realm. It also teaches a Muslim to stay away from worldly desires and to focus entirely on the Lord and thank Him for his blessings. It is a rejuvenation of the religion and it creates a stronger bond between the Muslim and his Lord. After the end of Ramadan, is a big celebration of Eid that is very importance Islamic tradition.
