I’m not backed into a corner. Sura 9:1-5 clearly shows what the sacred months are. 9:36 shows we are not to fight during the 4 sacred months, which is why 9:1-5 says to wait 4 months, which are stated as the Sacred months. Then, the very next verse, 9:37 says that those who alternate the 4 sacred months is a sign of excessive disbelief. I’m using the Quran, the proven word of GOD that we KNOW came from the prophet. You are using ‘possible’ sayings of the prophet through third, fourth, and fifth party information. It is hearsay. It is rumors. Yet, you are using these ‘long standing scholarly opinions and beliefs’ as correct, which, by default, you are saying the Quran, the Word of GOD, is NOT correct. I beg to differ.

There is a reason why GOD says in the Quran to look at things in light of the Quran and things will become clear. It does not say to look at the Quran in light of Bukhari (not a messenger of GOD) hadiths. Clearly, the Quran takes precedence. Obviously, you feel otherwise. … Remember, history books are always written by the victors, and guess what?! The victors always depict themselves as the ones who are ‘right’. The bottom line is do you trust Word of GOD (Quran), or the words of men (Bukhari hadiths). It is as simple as that.

Peace

Dear brother

You cannot even give the names of all 12 Islamic months from the Quran. Kindly provide complementing verses from the Quran for Surah Tauba verses 1-5 and 36-37 which even indicate the names of the months being refered to in these verses. This should be a good exercise for you because you’ll have to get those from the very literature you are turning a blind eye to.

Let me add some more to dent your arguments. Hadith collections existed even during the time of the Prophet SAW. They were just codified and sorted into jurisprudence less than a century after the Prophet SAW demise. The Muwatta of Malik came out in less than a century. The reason for the origin of the hadith collections was because it became the most sought after and esteemed field of study for the muslims after the demise of the Prophet SAW not because people wanted to setup a parallel to the Quran. That is how the science of hadith developed.

Even the Quran was only formally codified after the demise of the Prophet SAW though it existed in scattered form much similar to the way many companions had kept their private journals/collections of hadith. Bukhari was the culmination when the science of hadith reached its peak not its origin.

Your not even able to backup the translations you are posting. Now lets not divert the topic. So far you have not countered any omf my arguments with credible evidence. Your only posting Quranic verses out of context with no relevance to their chronology and calling that a winning argument. I think it would be better to move on to your next point of liking because your clearly out of gas on this one. Shall we?
