There is a phenomenon in our intellectual reality that is strange and needs treatment… and this phenomenon is related to our repetition in raising the same intellectual issues from time to time, without a definitive and final answer, even though it is supposed that when an intellectual issue is raised, we must end the controversy. Transform it by searching for a logical and scientific answer, and do not leave it hanging without a final answer, so that we can proceed and advance in raising other intellectual issues.

Therefore…we see issues repeatedly raised in intellectual groups on social networking sites, which are an expression of our reality.

The reason is… because our answers to intellectual issues are based on emotion and faith only, and not reason, logic, and reality. Therefore, it is very natural… that these issues should always be raised in the… Our reality and the decisive factor in the issue will be emotion and faith… that is, personal conviction.

But when we can find a definitive answer to an intellectual issue……. This intellectual issue can no longer be raised again, and other new intellectual issues will be raised.

Also… university curricula have contributed to creating this phenomenon. The majority of researchers and thinkers are a direct cause. Their writings are based on this approach, which cannot provide definitive answers to the intellectual issues it raises, so it can Build on it and keep the door always open, and even provide no steps through which the door can be closed.

The truth is many issues, including the issue of (whether the Qur’an adds or minuses points, letters, words, sentences, or surahs).

We believe…that such an issue is very serious, and requires an answer that will close the door once and for all and prevent this idea from being presented again, because we believe that if a Muslim has even a shred of doubt about the Qur’an, this will prevent him from understanding it. The Qur’an’s message, and the Qur’an’s message will never be understood.

Therefore, this issue must be raised, and one should never be afraid of the idea of raising it on the pretext that it will open room for doubt. Rather, the opposite is what will open room for doubt, because the enemies of Islam exploit this fear and work on this point to create doubt within the mind of the Muslim, but when we raise it we find His answer will prevent doubts and will permanently close any entry point for those who are hostile to Islam.

————-

First, let us be very frank in our conversations.

The truth is… I saw this issue being somewhat widespread among our people of the Shiite sect, especially in Iraq, according to my reading and observation in intellectual and religious groups on social media sites.

Not all followers of the Shiite doctrine… Rather, there is a group within them that adopts the idea that (the Qur’an is incomplete or extra), and has the courage and logic to present it, which is a plus for them.

Here we ask a logical question: Why is this idea so widespread among them?!

There is a thinker who attributes himself to the Shiites (wearing a Qabanji turban) who tried to understand and analyze this reality in a video clip of his on YouTube. He believes that the intellectual difference between the Shiites and the Sunnis is the same as the difference between Christianity and Judaism.

According to his words: “The Shiites love to embody the word of Allah in reality through a human character. They want reality in front of them, while the Sunnis worship the religious text…… Therefore, the Sunnis excel in memorizing the Qur’an and worship it more than the Shiites.”

But we do not see this reality… Shiites and Sunnis memorize the Qur’an well.

We believe that these analyzes are incorrect, because the man assumes a previous social awareness that caused this phenomenon…while reality is not explained in this way, as people are one environment, and the emergence of differences between people has logical reasons.

Therefore, we believe that there is a religious institutional system, based on founding texts and ideas, that made the idea of (increase and decrease in Quran readers) spread in the Shiite environment.

It is logical that the reason for the spread of this idea is the historical hostility between Bani Hashim and Bani Umayyad… The Shiites are followers of Bani Hashim and they hate and hate Bani Umayyad.

And because the first founding texts that everyone believes in made the Umayyads the ones who compiled the Qur’an through Uthman… it is logical that this hatred among the Shiites for the Umayyads and Uthman will create among some of them a state of doubt about the Qur’an… because any work will be done. The evil Umayyads will be suspicious of him…and this is the entrance that made the idea spread somewhat in the Shiite environment.

For example, there is a belief that distortion in the Qur’an occurs through:

– Because of the dotting, there are those who played with the dots of the letters, adding or dotting them, and as everyone knows, according to history, the Qur’an was written in letters without dotting.

– There is Surah Al-Wilaya that was deleted from the Qur’an

– There are Qur’an Ahl al-Bayt that were hidden in favor of the Qur’an of Banu Umayyad.

But the logical question for these people is: How is it possible that they are from the household of prophecy and were not able to preserve the most important sacred religious text that was brought by the Prophet to whom they attribute themselves?!

How can they attribute themselves to the Household, when they were not able to preserve the primary divine text, but they preserved the secondary human text found in the stories of history?!

We memorize the Qur’an by heart without needing a Qur’an, that is, we are a living, moving Qur’an without paper… Was it that the house of prophecy most concerned with religion was unable to memorize the Qur’an by heart, such that we believe that the story is related to and based on the Qur’an of Othman?

So, Othman’s Qur’an has no importance in the story at all… because it is assumed that the Prophet’s family at that time memorized the Qur’an by heart, just like we do today.

As long as the Household memorized the Qur’an by heart, there is absolutely no realistic logic in believing that someone added or subtracted points to words within the Qur’an.

Can a person change a word inside a person’s heart?!

If the Household were able to preserve the sayings of the Messenger and the Household, and they became sacred, is it possible that they were unable to preserve a sacred text from Allah so that we believe that there is Surah Al-Wilaya or another Qur’an?!

There is no logic and no reality

——————–

In general, this is not my main topic, just a partial observation… because my topic is related to the idea in general.

What is the main point of this case?

It is the story of Islam and the story of the arrival of the Qur’an to Muslims.

The story of Islam created an image in the mind of the Muslim, that there was one place on earth in which there was a Muslim human group (Mecca and Medina) and the rest of the world was non-Muslim, and this human group was the only one that carried the Qur’an with it…..and after 50 years Almost, this group spread Islam outside its land (Mecca and Medina)… from the borders of China to Spain and delivered the Qur’an to the inhabitants of that large area.

This story made religion the specialty of one place on earth (Mecca and Medina) and a human group inhabiting that place….and that group is responsible for the religion, responsible for preserving the Qur’an, and responsible for delivering the Qur’an to people outside that place. When the Qur’an reaches outside that place, the rest of the people must surrender to that responsibility and believe in it.

But after the Qur’an reaches the people who live outside that place (Mecca and Medina), the responsibility will become on the people to preserve the Qur’an.

in another meaning

1- The first period from (50 – 0 AH)

The Qur’an exists only in Mecca and Medina, and the responsibility for preserving it falls on their residents.

2- The second period is one year (50 AH)

The Qur’an reaches people outside (Mecca and Medina)

3- The third period of (50 AH – today)

The responsibility for preserving the Qur’an falls on the rest of the people outside (Mecca and Medina).

——————–

What are the types of belief in this idea (increases and subtractions in the Qur’an)?!

There are two types, the first type because of the story of (Mecca and Medina), and the second type because of the same Quran.

1- The first type…has many examples

■ The story of collecting the Qur’an at the hands of Uthman

The story convinced the Muslim that a man other than the Messenger (Uthman) had collected the Qur’an after the death of the Messenger. He burned many Qur’ans and excluded others until the situation stabilized in this Qur’an.

This story made the Muslim assume that there was the Qur’an of Ibn Masoud and another Qur’an, and made him believe that collecting the Qur’an would lead to a mistake because it was the work of a man in a difficult reality and this man had great controversy around him, and therefore this entry would be the entry point for the majority of those who believe in the idea. ..and people will impose a lot of logic:

– That there is another Qur’an (the Qur’an of Ibn Masoud)

– That there is an increase or decrease in a word, sentence, or letter in the Qur’an (the story of the goat that ate part of the Qur’an)

But the question:

Can logic and reality make such a thing happen?!

What I mean… How can he be a messenger and not complete the task of conveying the word of Allah to people in the correct manner, and leave the process to someone who is not a messenger?!

Then the process does not need a plural story… because the Qur’an has been preserved in the chests since the days of the Messenger before his death (if we assume the story to be true). The Muslim today memorizes the Qur’an by heart without making a single mistake. It is better to believe that the characters of that story memorized the Qur’an by heart on the same day… because they have the most faith, religion, and love for the Qur’an.

Then the Qur’an itself says… that the material of the first Qur’an on which the Qur’an was written was stone tablets and not leather or paper Qur’an.

{Rather, he is a glorious Qur’an on a preserved Tablet}

We have discussed this matter, and we said that the Uthmani Qur’an was given this name in reference to the Uthmans or the Ottoman calligrapher who wrote the modern printed Qur’an, and not in reference to a person named Othman bin Affan.

■ Printer’s heritage books related to interpretations

It implanted belief in the Muslim mind with stories about the deletion and removal of some verses of the Qur’an, because of the idea of the abrogated and abrogated, the idea of arranging the Qur’an, and the story of Mecca and Medina.

There are verses that have been invalidated by law and writing because of the abrogated and abrogated.

You wonder how it is possible for a Muslim to believe in this idea when the Qur’an tells him that these stories are false and fabricated:

{Allah is the One who sent down the Book with truth and balance} {And recite what has been revealed to you from the Book of your Allah; there is no altering His words, and you will not find anyone uniting with Him apart from Him.}

■ The script in which the Qur’an was written

The story convinced the Muslim that the Qur’an was written in a non-dotted script, but after the introduction of the Persians, the Muslims decided to dot the letters, and this process generated doubt among some… because, as everyone knows, there are letters that are similar in drawing, and a single dot will make a difference in the meaning. .

We firmly believe that this story is false and fake.

Why ?

The story of the development of the current script of the Qur’an was written in the heritage books that reached the Muslim from the printer, and there was also intentionality by the West in order to convince the Muslim of this story….. The West is the only one that keeps manuscripts of the Qur’an in a non-dotted script.

That is, there is an awareness that wants to make the Muslim believe in this story of the development of the script in order to prevent the Muslim from reaching the truth of this current script.

This awareness wants from this story to create a primitive origin for this line from which it emerged, and in order to make the Muslim also doubt the Qur’an.

Because we believe that this script in which the current Qur’an was written is the first original script in which the current Qur’an was written, and there is no script similar to it in which the Qur’an was written.

In other words…if the story of Mecca is true and talks about this script, then the story of Mecca must have been written in the Qur’an in dotted script from the beginning of the era of the Messenger.

how ?!

First… There cannot be any society on earth that would think with the same mentality as the society of Mecca and write in a script with completely similar letters… This society is a donkey and stupid… Any society on earth, even if it is made up of children, when… He wants to write in a written script, so he will write in a script with different letters that are not the same… and there is no scientific, logical, or realistic reason why any society should draw one shape for two different letters with the phonetic output (d, dha).

Secondly… The Qur’an clearly says that this current script is not the first original script in which the Qur’an was written… The Muslims memorized the Qur’an from a Qur’an written in a disjointed script (its letters are not connected), that is, a script radically different from the current script.

This is the fundamental reason why the Muslim considers metaphysical memorization to be a stop and precedence over the writing of this Qur’an.

For example, in this Qur’an it is written:

1- (Prayer)…but the Muslim recites it as prayer

1- (Asaq)…but the Muslim reads it (Ain Sin Qaf) and not (Asaq).

If this drawing had been a tawqīf, and it was the first handwriting that the Messenger wrote in and had reached the Muslim through the Qur’an, the Muslim today would recite it (Salah) and (Asq), but the Muslim would read it differently.

There is a big difference and difference between memorizing the unseen Muslim, which was passed down to him, and drawing the Qur’an, and this indicates that the current drawing of the Qur’an is not my own, nor is it the first original drawing from which the Muslim memorized the Qur’an. If it were the original drawing, there would be no difference between the Muslim’s reading and the drawing. Written.

This indicates that this drawing is a new calligraphy for the Muslim and an attempt by a force to hide the original calligraphy, create confusion in the Muslim’s mind, and sow doubt within him regarding the idea of undotted letters.

2 – The second type

■ Belief due to dictation

I believe that this type reaches that idea, because of its failure to realize that the current script of the Qur’an is not my own and is not the original script of the Qur’an.

■ Belief because of meaning

This type is due to the lack of awareness of the meaning of some of the words and lines of the Qur’an. This makes it reach the idea of there being an increase or decrease in the Qur’an.

■ Belief due to grammar rules

This type is because of his belief that the grammatical rules that were established after the Qur’an are divine rules, and he has come to believe that the Qur’an does not follow those rules…. and this difference must be corrected.. and this makes him reach the idea about the presence of an increase or decrease in the Qur’an.

This type…does not realize that the Qur’an is prior to the grammatical rules that were established after the Qur’an, and it is absolutely not logically correct to make the rules after the Qur’an a standard of judgment and impose it on a primary text that is primarily responsible for the way it speaks.

For example: If the Qur’an says {Say to the believers} then you must adhere to this speech…. and not say that the correct one is {Say to the believers} and there is a missing letter… and you give me the grammatical rule (the prepositional and the prepositional).

■ A belief due to logic

This type, because of its awareness and personal logic, believes that the Qur’an must agree with its logic… and this difference in logic must be corrected, and this makes it reach the idea of there being an increase or decrease in a letter or word in the Qur’an.

This type…does not realize that the Qur’an is a revelation with its own logic, which needs a person who has purified himself of all other logic and awareness, and deals with the Qur’an’s logic that he wants. It is never logically correct to make a personal logic a standard of judgment and impose it. On the logic of a previous primary text.

—————————

People who believe in this idea can be divided into two types:

The first type believes that the increase or decrease is the result of an unintended action, and this we talked about previously.

The second type believes that the matter happened as a result of an intentional and intentional act, and this type must realize an easy and simple realistic logic:

Whoever wants to hide a fact from a book and has the ability to do so by deleting a letter in it, it is very natural that he will not be satisfied with a single letter or word, because this ability will also enable him to delete an entire sentence in the book, not even a surah, or even the entire Qur’an…. There is no need at all to deliver the Qur’an to the Muslim from the beginning if the matter is related to a letter, word, or sentence, because it is better for someone who thinks of deleting one letter in order to hide the truth in it, to hide the entire Qur’an.

Whoever can delete a letter can also delete more than one letter.

———————————-

These are approximately the types……. But the important question is: Is there an idea that brings together all of these types with a final solution?!

Where does the idea of doubting readers of all types come from?!

The answer: Because of belief in the first period of (50 – 0 AH)

Why ?

Because it is illogical that doubt arises in the Qur’an, and that there is an increase or decrease in the Qur’an after the Qur’an reaches the people.

Because after the Qur’an reaches the people, it is impossible for a being on earth to be able to increase or decrease the Qur’an, because we trust ourselves, because the Qur’an became under the responsibility of the people after the Qur’an reached them.

That is, all doubts about the Qur’an are generated by any person because of his belief in that period of time… and any researcher or Muslim cannot believe that the increase or decrease in the Qur’an occurred after the Qur’an reached the Muslim.

The doubt about the Qur’an is because he lived for a period of approximately 50 years, and he was not the responsibility of the people, but rather the responsibility of a narrow place and a human group, and when we read the history of that human group, we found that it engaged in conflict, fighting, and other events.

Therefore, it is completely illogical…….. that a person could put forward this idea about the Qur’an after the Qur’an has gone out and reached the people, because the idea of the possibility of doing (an increase or decrease in the Qur’an) will become impossible, as the Qur’an is the same for all Muslims. .. And whoever adds or subtracts from the Qur’an anywhere on earth, that increase or decrease will appear to any Muslim anywhere on earth.. But the Qur’an is the same for all Muslims.

If the story that reached the Muslim made him believe that he was a Muslim from the beginning and did not need someone to convey Islam and the Qur’an to him, and that he had gone to the main source of the Qur’an and taken the Qur’an from it, then the Muslim would be responsible and would be responsible. He is confident of himself, and it is difficult for him to imagine such a belief.

But the story made the original copy of the Qur’an…in Mecca and Medina….and the Muslim at that time was not responsible for it…but rather waited until a group from (Mecca and Medina) delivered the Qur’an to him.

And because that human group… conflict and disagreement occurred between them during (50 years)… and history wrote for us throughout that time the story of the gathering of the Qur’an…. and wrote for us the story of the first circumstances under which the Qur’an was… Therefore, this story became the source of creating doubt, and it became logical that it would generate doubt in some people.

Therefore, you find that all types of people who believe in this belief always have their reasons related to the story of Mecca that took place between (0 to 50 AH).

So….the fundamental reason for the idea of (increase and decrease in the Qur’an) is that the story of Islam removed the responsibility for preserving the Qur’an from Muslims from the beginning, and implanted in his mind that he was not a Muslim from the beginning, but after he became a Muslim, he must preserve it. ……Because of this history, the story was able to remove confidence from the Muslim and made him imagine that the Qur’an would begin to bear responsibility for the story of that period.

And now… after understanding the essence of the issue, we believe that the most important cause of the problem is the story that took place over a period of 50 years in Mecca and Medina, which the Muslim believes in, and that it was the story that brought the Qur’an to him, because it put him inside that story. He is not present and is not responsible for reciting the Qur’an, so that image was reflected in his consciousness and made him lose confidence in himself and the Qur’an.

The strange thing is that the final solution to this problem is found in the Qur’an, and the Muslim or researcher does not notice it at all.

The Qur’an addresses the Muslim about (that book)… until he addresses to him that story that reached him about the Qur’an and about religion, because that story may be fake, fabricated, and false, and there is a force that convinced the Muslim of it, and made the Muslim believe that The Qur’an came out of that story, while the real story is that the Muslim traveled himself to the first original source in which the Qur’an was located and memorized the Qur’an from it.

The Qur’an wants to make the Muslim realize this well, that he was a Muslim from the beginning and Islam was his first nature on earth, and he traveled while he was a Muslim to the original source in which the Qur’an is located, and he is completely confident in it and he memorized it from a stone tablet written in script. It is different, and Uthman did not collect it, nor did anyone come to teach him religion and the Qur’an.

{That is the Book about which there is no doubt, a guidance for the righteous (2) who believe in the unseen and perform prayer, and spend out of what We have provided them.}

{Those to whom We gave the book before it believe in it. (52) And when it is recited to them, they say, “We believe in it. It is the truth from our Allah. Indeed, before it we were Muslims. (53) Those will be given their reward twice because they were patient, and they ward off evil with good, and spend out of what We have provided them. (54)}

But there is a force of (those who are Jewish) who have distorted and falsified the reading of that writing (that book) from which all Muslims have memorized the Qur’an… in order to hide the book from the earth, so that that force can create a false, fabricated and false story for Islam, and proceed. From a fake qibla in order to control and control Muslims.

{Among those who are Al-Yahoud who distort words from their proper places}

{Do you hope that they will believe in you, when a group of them used to hear the words of Allah and then distort them after they had understood them while they knew? (75) And when they met those who believed, they said, “We believe,” and when they were alone with one another, they said, “Will you inform them of what Allah has revealed to you, so that they may dispute with you concerning it before your Allah? Will you not understand?” (76) First. They know that Allah knows what they conceal and what they declare. (77) And among them are unlettered people who do not know the Book except in wishful thinking, and they only surmise. (78) So woe to those who write the Book with their own hands and then say, “This is from Allah,” in order to exchange it for a small price. So woe to them for what their hands have written, and woe to them for what they earn.

{O People of the Book, Our Messenger has come to you, making clear to you much of what you concealed from the Book, and pardoning much. There has come to you from Allah a light and a clear Book (15) with which Allah guides those who follow His pleasure to paths of peace, and brings them out of darkness into light by His permission and guides them to a straight path (16)}
