Flat Earth of the Quran :-

        Muhammad's followers tell the world that his Quran contains all knowledge, 1400 years ahead of its time, especially the case of the earth being round. How true are their claims ?

       Let us for a start investigate their claim that Muhammad knew that the Earth is Spherical.

       In Arabic the Earth is called is Ardth. Mountains or ships anchors are Rawasiya. Please keep these in mind when listening to or reading this chapter.

       Muhammad in his Quran shows incredible contempt and total disregard for facts and truth, even when he is plagiarising, plundering and pirating from previously inspired revelations by the Almighty. He invariably perverts and contorts what he was stealing to make it look original and or different.

          Several thousands of years ago, the Bible clearly recorded that the earth is round and that it is hung on nothing.     

Isaiah 40:22 "It is He who sits above the circle of the earth"

Job 26:7 "He stretches out the north over empty space; He hangs the earth on nothing"

        Muhammad taught his followers that just as there are allegedly seven heavens one above another (plagiarised from the traditions of the Jews), so there are seven earths one beneath another, the distance between each of these regions being five hundred years' journey.
(Mishkat al Masabih by al Tabrizi, book xxiv c I part 3)

      Muhammad's Quran challenges all established scientific facts. In many places, it asserts that the Earth is flat and stretched out like a carpet and its mountains are like poles or pegs to hold it and create a balance so that the Earth does not tilt.

        Let us investigate what Muhammad's Quran says about the Earth:

Al Hijr 15:19  "And the earth [Ardth] We have spread out (like a carpet) [maddadnaha]; set thereon mountains firm and immovable [rawasiya] …

      The modern translator of Muhammad's Quran tells us:  # 1955         In highly poetical language, the earth is described as spread out like a carpet, on which the hills act as weights to keep it steady #

Al Nahl 16:15 " And He has set up on the earth [Ardth] mountains standing firm [rawasiya] lest it should shake with you…

       He adds: # 2038        Cf. xiii. 3 and xv. 19. Here and elsewhere the earth is spoken of as a spacious carpet beneath our feet and the hills as a steadying agent to keep the carpet from rolling or shaking about. In lxxvii. 7 they are spoken of as pegs or stakes #

Ak Kahf 18: 47  "One Day We shall remove the mountains and thou wilt see the earth as a level stretch [barizata] .

Ta Ha 20:53        "He Who has made for you the earth [Ardth] like a carpet spread out [mahadda] …..
Al Anbiya 21: 31 " And We have set on the earth [Ardth] mountains standing firm [rawasiya] lest it should shake with them ….

      He explains:  # 4613        Cf. xx. 53 and n. 2576. Mihad, a carpet or bed spread out ….#

Qaf 50: 7 "And the earth [al Arth] --We have spread it out [maddadnaha] and set thereon mountains standing firm [rawasiya] …

      *** This is accompanied by the comments of the following Muslim scholars (refer to Jalalan, p. 437; Baydawi, p. 686, Tabari, p. 589, and Zamakhshari, part 4, p. 381). All of them assure us that

       "if it were not for these unshakable mountains, the earth would slip away."

      Zamakhshari, the Baydawi and the Jalalan say: "Allah has built heaven without pillars but he placed unshakable mountains on Earth lest it tilts with people."

       These are the comments of the ancient Muhammadan Muslim scholars word for word.

Al Nabaa 78: 6  "Have We not made the earth as a wide expanse [mihadda] 7 And the mountains as pegs?

       What is even more remarkable and most disturbing, is the fact that some Saudi scholars wrote a book to disprove the spherical aspect of the earth and they claimed that it is a myth, agreed with the above mentioned scholars, and said we must believe Muhammad's Quran and reject all other statements to the contrary.

       When DOGMA is so deeply embedded, logic, reality and facts are replaced by stupidity, myth and outright lies.

Al Ghashiyah 88:17-20 "Will they not regard the camels how they are created...and the Earth how it is spread [sutihat] ?"

       *** On page 509, the Jalalain say "In his phrase, 'how it is spread', he denotes that the earth is flat. All the scholars of Islamic law agree upon this. It is not round as the physicists claim."
      
       What forced Jalal al-Din to say so, because Muhammad's Quran asserts in many chapters that the earth is flat, and no true Muhammadan can ever contradict  Muhammad's Quran in public and live.

       Muhammadan scholars who agree upon the meaning of this verse believe as
Al Jalalain state (pp. 270-271), "Allah has founded firm mountains on earth lest it shake people."

       On page 429, al-Baydawi says, "Allah has made firm mountains on earth lest it sway people and quake. He also made heaven as a ceiling and kept it from falling down!"

      Al Zamakhshari agrees with the above authors and reiterates the same words (Zamakhshari part 3, p. 114)***

       It is well-known that Muhammad's Quran proclaims that there are seven earths - not just one (al Jalalan, p. 476, al-Baydawi, p. 745 as they interpret chapter)
Al Talaq 65:12  "Allah is He Who created seven Firmaments and of the earth a similar number..

       The seven earths, which are five hundred years' journey from each other, are situated one beneath the other, and each of these seven regions has its special occupants.

The occupants of the first are men, genii, and animals;

the second is occupied by the suffocating wind which destroyed the infidel tribe of 'Ad (Surah 69: 6);

the third is filled with the stones of hell, mentioned in  (Al Baqara 2:22; 66:6) as "the fuel of which is men and stones";

the fourth by the sulphur of hell;

the fifth by the serpents of hell;

the sixth by the scorpions of hell, which are in size and color like black melons, and have tails like spears;

and the seventh by the devil and his angels.

       The above is but a brief outline of the Muhammadan belief as regards the earth's formation; but the statements of Muhammadan commentators are so wild on the subject, that it seems quite useless to quote them as authorities, for they contradict each other in an endless variety.

       It is evident that the earth is not flat nor are the mountains the pillars and the towerings which prevent the earth from moving as Muhammad's Quran and the 'Muslim'scholars assert. Nor are there seven earths.

Al-Tirmidhi Hadith 5688        Narrated by Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-'As
Allah's Messenger pointed to something like a bowl and said, "If a piece of lead like this were sent from Heaven to Earth, which is journey of five hundred years, it would reach the earth before night; and if it were sent from the top of the chain it would travel forty years night and day before reaching its foot (or its bottom)."

       Zamakhshari, the Baydawi and the Jalalan say: "Allah has built heaven without pillars but He placed unshakable mountains on Earth lest it tilts with people."

       Concerning chapter 50:7, the Suyuti says that scholars indicate that "Qaf is a mountain which encompasses the entire earth" (refer to Itqan, part 3, p. 29). Qaf is an Arabic L like K

Al Dhariyat 51:48  "And We have spread out the (spacious) earth: how excellently We do spread out!

Nuh 71:19 "And Allah has made the earth for you as a carpet (spread out)

Al Inshiqaq 84: 3 "And when the Earth is flattened out
      
       Furthermore, the earth is believed by Muhammadan scholars to be surrounded by a great sea called al-Bahru 'l-Muhit, or the circumambient ocean which is bounded by the mountains of Qaf. The extent of the earth is said to be two hundred years journey being allotted to the sea two hundred to the uninhabited desert, eighty to the country of Gog and Magog (Yajuj wa Majuj) and the rest to the civilized world.

       Certain terrae incognitae in the midst of the mountains of Qaf are said to be inhabited by the Jinn or Genii. According to some, Makkah (or Jerusalem according to others) is situated in the centre of the earth. On the Muhit is the Arshu 'l-Iblis, or "Throne of Satan." The western portion of the Muhit is often called the Bahru 'z-Zulmat, or "Sea of Darkness" and in the south-west corner of the earth is the Fountain of Life of which al-Khizi drank, and in virtue of which he still lives, and will live till the Day of Judgement.

        The mountains of Qaf which bound the great sea Muhit, form a circular barrier round the whole earth, and are said to be of green chrysolite, the color of which the Prophet said imparts a greenish tint to the sky. The general opinion is that the mountains of Qaf bound our earth, but some say there are countries beyond, each country being a thousand years' journey.

       In summation, Muhammadan Muslims venerate Muhammad to the extent that they believe he represents the best man that has ever lived as well as the one with the most knowledge of almost everything.

       Even the translator confirmed the meaning of the verses and hence no 'Muslim' can accuse none Muslims of any kind of misunderstanding or misinterpretation

      It is easy to accept that a mere human being such as Muhammad can be wrong.

       It is infinitely more difficult to allow that Gabriel, the messenger of Allah - if Allah is the same as the God of Israel & Jesus - is mistaken.

       It is blasphemy to think that Allah is wrong, if Allah is God.

       Based upon the above few samples only, no divine being could have ever 'revealed' such verses regarding the spherical Earth and its mountains.

       To unravel the riddle of the above anomalies, stupidities, irrationalities, contradictions and blatant lies, the reader has to come to the one and only rational explanation, that ~

       Allah is NOT the same as the God of Moses & Jesus but only the NAME of the supreme pagan rock god of the Ka'ba.

       The reader also knows that no rock god could inspire any human being. Hence the final conclusion can only be that:

       Muhammad, Gabriel, Allah & Satan are actually Muhammad's ALTER EGO, one and the same person.

       From all the above, the reader has to come to his/her own conclusions.
