Remember that incident where an old lady told the Holy Prophet(saw) that she didn’t want to listen to Mohammad (saw) because her ‘ulema’ said that he was a sorcerer. Exact same mentality: either we won’t read or will believe what our ‘ulema’ say about the writings.

Some of you (same bunch) relish these threads way too much to be taken seriously at your claim of unbiased academic inquiry :coughbaoandcomanycough:

I was thinking more along the lines of the incident where Umar (RA) was reading something from the Torah. Then he could see that Nabi (SAW) was upset on hearing about it and said what roughly translates to “I’m happy with Allah as my Rabb, Islam as my deen and Muhammad (SAW) as my prophet.”

That doesn’t mean that I’ll ignore all other books written by anyone else, but I will reject anyone else claiming to be a prophet. If someone does make that type of blunder, then I wouldn’t consider them a reliable source for any knowledge of deen.
