  • I believe everything  that Allah sent down  as Book (42:15)
  • We believe in that which has been revealed to us and revealed to you (29:46)
    • But it contradicts our book
  • So bring the Torah and recite it, if you should be truthful. (3:93)
    • The Torah is correct because it is used to settle problems

Mohammed has to ask the people of the book

  • if you are in doubt => ask those who have been reading the Scripture before you (10:94)  
    • After he has spoken about the stories of Moses
  • we send people with revelation => so ask the people of the message(Book) if you do not know (21:7)

    • that [behavior] was troubling the Prophet, and he is shy of [dismissing] you …
    • And when you ask [his wives] for something, ask them from behind a partition => That is purer for your hearts and their hearts (33:53) (see Hadith Bukhari 79:45, 79:13)
  • It not allowed to marry a spouse of the Prophet after him: it is an enormity for Allah  (33:53)
  • All wives who give himself to the prophet and if he wants to marry them (33:50)
  • Mohammed can divorce his wives and God will give him better wives (66:5)
  • If the wives of the prophet are against him => the angels will be against them (66:4)
    • Read hadith to know the full stories (Bukhari 67:125, Bukhari 46:29)
  • The spouses of the prophet  have to show between the present life (this means divorce )and hereafter  (33:28)
    • Read the full stories in (Bukhari 46:29)

Particularity over the other prophets

    • … those who follow the messenger, the unlettered prophet, whom they find mentioned in their own (scripture), in the law(Torah) and the Gospel … 
      • It means Mohammed was mentioned in the Torah and the Gospel, it is not in the past,  when they receive the law from Moise or the Gospel of Jesus. 
    • where? Deut 18:18 (in the middle of their brothers), read Deut 18:15 (in middle of you(Israel))
  • Jesus announced a messenger with the name „Ahmad“  to the children of Israel (61:6)
    • where did Jesus announce this messenger with this name?
