Re: Details of interpreting verses from the Qur’an and obvious blunders
Peace Mr.Popat
There is a promise in the Holy Qur’an that Allah (SWT) would safeguard Islam at the time of trials and dangers as is said:
‘We Ourself have sent down this Admonition and We shall surely safeguard it.’(15:10)
According to this promise Allah (SWT) safeguarded His word in four ways.
First, by means of those who have committed the Holy Qur’an to memory, its text and sequence were safeguarded. In each century there have been hundreds of thousands of peoplewho had committed this Holy Word to memory and thus safeguarded it in such a way that if they were asked about one word they could recite its context. In this way, theHoly Qur’an was safeguarded against verbal perversion in every age.
Secondly, through great divines who were bestowed an understanding of the Qur’an in every century, who interpreted the Qur’an with the help of the Ahadith, and thus safeguarded the Holy Word of Allah (SWT) and its holy teaching against the perversion of its meaning in every age.
Thirdly, through scholars who set forth Qur’anic teachings in the light of reason and thus safeguarded the Holy Word of Allah (SWT) against the attacks of short-sighted philosophers.
Fourthly, through those upon whom spiritual bounties were bestowed who safeguarded the Holy Word of Allah (SWT) in **every age against the attacks of those who denied miracles and spiritual insights. **
So you see in Islam our Tafsir that we use today are purified from being misconstrued … And the moment people say otherwise those rogue opinions stop in their tracks … Do you agree with this post, Mr. Popat?
The answer to this will lead on to your question’s answer.
