https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxQ7U9pPEkA How much can we be  sure about the crucifixion of Jesus and  whether he was indeed crucified? I know in Islam the teaching is that he was not actually  crucified. I think on a historical basis,  Jesus was absolutely crucified. I I think  that as a historian there's almost no doubt about that. In case your audience doesn't know, I don't identify as a  Christian. I was raised a  Christian but I'm an atheist now. I don't have a particular stake in any  of this information personally but I  think the crucifixion of Jesus is probably one of  the best attested events of his life. It's found all over the place,  in our early sources, it's even mentioned  by non-Christian sources. It's not the kind of thing  that Christians…

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=677lMXleqWI Hi everyone and welcome.  This is the apostate prophet.  I talked a lot about how Islam is morally unacceptable  because it reduces human dignity to very low levels  and is completely contrary and  incompatible with the rights and freedoms of humans.  But that's not the only thing that makes Islam a bad idea.  There are major logical and scientific  issues in the Quran that claims to be the  unquestionable,  unchangeable, perfect word of an almighty God, Allah.  When you are a Muslim, as I used to be,  you'll learn that Islam is perfect  and that the Quran is superior to everything,  any idea, any observation, any evidence.  Therefore when the Quran contradicts obviously  with something very clear that we observe,  people who believe in this religion  go on and…

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDqd7vNzQ5g Let's explore the Quran's grammatical  mistakes. The Quran is actually full of glaring  grammatical mistakes. Even at the most basic elementary level  and despite what your Imams would like you  to believe, it's actually a well-known  and documented fact  by Islam's most prominent scholars,  for example al-Qurtubi, who mentions  in his tafsir of Surah 20:63 that a certain reading of that verse  by some of the companions  agreed with the grammar but was  different from the Quran. Those companions read the verse  differently in order to correct its  grammar,  and therefore it was grammatically  correct, but different  from the reading in the Quran. Interestingly, it is the grammatically  incorrect version  that appears in mushafs (Quran) today and is  still being recited by Muslims. Let's look at a detailed example…

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SaIFcuOrWB8 Surah 20:85-87  and Surah 20:95-97 When Moses  goes up to Mount Sinai, a SamirI (i.e. Samaritan) builds the golden calf. It's very clear that this was a  Samaritan because Moses said to him “And  what is your case O Samiri?” The problem is there were no Samaritans  in 1400 BC.  Samaritans were not created until the  fall of the northern kingdom by Israel  by Sargon II and that was in 722 BC. How can you have Samaritans existing  700 years earlier?  It gets the mosque much too early. The mosque at the dome of the rock was built in 691 and the al-aqsa mosque one was  built in 710. Surah 17:1 of the Quran talks about  the masjid-haram (in Mecca) and the masjid al-aqsa (in Jerusalem)  but it talks…

https://youtu.be/n4-WSjNicoA One of the most popular arguments for Islam is what we might call the “Argument from  Scientific Accuracy.”  Muslim apologists claim that the Qur’an contains numerous scientific insights that  couldn’t have been known by Muhammad apart from divine revelation and that were only  verified centuries later.  I’ve debated Muslims on this argument, and I find it very strange, because the Qur’an  is a scientific disaster.  Everything Muhammad could get wrong, he got wrong.  The Qur'an claims that: Semen is formed between the backbone and ribs (Surah 86:6-7)The earth is flat (Surah 88:20)There are seven earths (surah 65: 12)The sun and the moon chase each other around the earth (surah 36:38-40)Human embryos are blood-clots (surah 22:5)The sky would fall on the  earth if Allah didn't hold it up (surah 22:65)Stars…

https://youtu.be/ndenaGlwsjI In Surah 4:82 of the Qur’an, Allah says: “Do they not consider the Qur’an  (with care)?  Had it been from other than Allah, they would surely have found therein much discrepancy.”  There are several problems with this verse.   First, it says that if the Qur’an had been from someone other than Allah, we would have  found much discrepancy in it.  So if a book is written by anyone other than Allah, it will be filled with discrepancies.  But this is just silly.  I can write a math book right now that says, “1 plus 1 equals 2.”  “2 plus 2 equals 4.”  Such a book will contain no discrepancies, no errors, no contradictions.  According to the Qur’an, that will make my math book the Word of Allah, since any …

Surah 25:53. It is He Who has let free the two bodies of flowing water: One palatable and sweet, and the other salt and bitter; yet has He made a barrier between them, a partition that is forbidden to be passed. [53] Dan Dialah yang membiarkan dua laut mengalir (berdampingan); yang ini tawar lagi segar dan yang lain asin lagi pahit; dan Dia jadikan antara keduanya dinding dan batas yang menghalangi. 3.0pt;margin-left:1.0in;text-indent:-.5in;page-break-after:avoid'>It is possible for salt and fresh water to mix and this is a scientific error. Even the writer Bucaille (of the Bible, the Quran and Science) admits, “the mixing of their waters with the salt water usually does not take place until far out at sea.” Muslim response According to Yusuf Ali, this is a symbolic statement. Sweet…

Quran was revealed in stages “(It is) a Quran which We have divided, (into parts from time to time) in order that thou mightest recite to men at intervals: We have revealed it by stages.” Surah 17:106 106] Dan Al Qur'an itu telah Kami turunkan dengan berangsur-angsur agar kamu membacakannya perlahan-lahan kepada manusia dan Kami menurunkannya bagian demi bagian. See also Surah 25:32 But the Quran was also revealed all at once! Surah 97:1. We have indeed revealed this (Message) in the Night of Power: Surah 97[1] Sesungguhnya Kami telah menurunkannya (Al Qur'an) pada malam kemuliaan. “Ramadhan is the (month) in which was sent down the Quran, as a Guide [Hudaa] to Mankind.” Surah 2:185 See also Surah 44:3 Muslim response Muslims go round this problem by saying that the…

The Quran allows the marrying of up to four wives if a man believes that he can treat them fairly. Surah 4: 3. If ye fear that ye shall not be able to deal justly with the orphans, Marry women of your choice, Two or three or four; but if ye fear that ye shall not be able to deal justly (with them), then only one, or (a captive) that your right hands possess, that will be more suitable, to prevent you from doing injustice. 4:3 Dan jika kamu takut tidak akan dapat berlaku adil terhadap (hak-hak) perempuan yatim (bilamana kamu mengawininya), maka kawinilah wanita-wanita (lain) yang kamu senangi: dua, tiga atau empat. Kemudian jika kamu takut tidak akan dapat berlaku adil, maka (kawinilah) seorang saja, atau budak-budak yang kamu…

Egypt is watered by rain (Sura 12:49). Surah 12 49] Kemudian setelah itu akan datang tahun yang padanya manusia diberi hujan (dengan cukup) dan di masa itu mereka memeras anggur." We may point out that more than one thousand years before Muhammad made this declaration, Herodotus the Greek historian stated: "Egypt is the gift of the Nile"! In fact, the only means of watering the crops in Egypt is the Nile. This fact is also confirmed by encyclopedias. The valley and delta region contains most of Egypt's farmland.  Without the precious waters of the Nile, Egypt would be little more than a desert wasteland.  For thousands of years, annual floods of the Nile deposited valuable soils called silts upon the narrow plain on either side of the river and upon…
