How was the Quran Written & Compiled? Questions about the Quran, Part 8 | Dr. Shabir Ally

Dr. Shabir Ally explains that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) wasn't schooled in reading or writing. His companions wrote the Quran on materials such as the barks of trees and stones, and these written pieces were gathered and compiled to form the Quran that we read and recite today.

It is good that there are Muslim teachers who are willing to teach outsiders. It is good to actually learn from a Muslim teacher, and not bad students (which is how most non Muslims learn about Islam).

This is the only guy that has admitted there are textual variations in the Quran from past too present that I’ve seen

[iamfour]

Why didn't you say that the Quran was written about 100 years after he died

[السيدالمسيحعبداللهورسوله]

سبحانك اللهم وبحمدك استغفرك و اتوب اليك واشهد ان لا اله الا الله واشهد ان محمد رسول الله

[mjp-bire]

I am kind of confused. Is Dr. Shabir saying that the Quran was not perfectly preserved. Can anyone clarify?

[gabriel_of_spain]

How do we know that the companions and Muhammad didn't make up the verses in the Quran?

[tinashenyoni]

Why does Dr Shabir Ally always say peace be upon every time he says the name of the prophet

[TheTruth-hcww]

The Quran Never actually says Muhammad was Illiterate, this idea actually came from One single word that was mistranslated. The word is ‘Ummy’ found in Surah 7:157 and All over the Quran. Muslims have translated the Word ‘Ummy’ to mean ‘Illiterate’ however not a single verse in the Quran uses this word in context of reading and writing. If anything the Word actually means Gentile or those without the Scriptures. For example the word ‘Ummiyan’ is used in Surah 3:20; the verse says:
‘Say to those who were given the Scripture and the 'ummiyeen', "Have you submitted?". Now if You put the Incorrect Translation here it would read ‘Say to those who were given the Scripture and ‘those that cannot read or write’. Have you Submitted. Notice the verse has nothing to do with reading or writing but about who has the Scriptures and Who doesn’t have the Scriptures. In other words ‘Gentiles’. During that time it would be the Non-Jew/Christian. Which makes more sense since the Quran was given to the Arabs who had no prophet or Scripture at the time. Its very obvious that the notion of Illiteracy came Later, along with the New Translation of the Word ‘Ummi’ which now means Illiterate because it is taken from the Quran that poorly translated the Word.

Good Shabir. I hope you remember that the variations in the Bible do not change the Christian doctrine or practices either!

[mikemental]

What about parts that were lost and eaten by sheep, and never got into quran?

[ravikumarkb]

What about utman burning all the previous existing texts and prepared 7 new texts for different cities

[MintExplorer]

sorry... but isnt the left hand for whipping?

[chasewinslow]

The only time Gabriel ever strong armed anyone ever was Muhammad to write the Quran. Very interesting considering there is no indication in the entire bible of Gabriel strong arming anyone. In fact just the opposite. That should make you question everything.

[arthurbahho]

The first writing of Quran was in Aramic ( Assyrian) and during Ottoman bin Aafan start adding dots and vowels as we have now, and he burnt all the original writing of Quran.
When you hide something important like this, that's mean you worry about the truth.

[judahlion]

Then why are Muslims saying the Quran is the same and no one can change the word of Allah?

[freddybustos]

Who was the guy that burn all the other books and just kept one in particular?
