lol. It seems like you are arguing just for the argument sake. With no knowledge of what you are saying now. I do understand your love for Islam. I do understand that you’re trying your utmost best to defend this belief, but really.. why ?
4:15 : Will they not, then, ponder over the Qur’an, or is it that on the hearts are their locks?
12:101 Let death come to me in a state of submission to Thy will and join me to the righteous.’
This is what you said is the ‘correct’ translation.
**Take me (while I am) a Muslim, and join me with the righteous
**
Whats the problem there? You said it means ‘take my soul’. Sure.. its a dua. Take my soul (give me death) when im in total submission to you(Allah). Join me with the ‘righteous’. Do you expect Allah to raise a person bodily up and join them with righteous? does it even make sense to you?? Please do not question whats in Quran and what you think it may have meant. If you say ‘take my soul’, then i just fail to understand whats the problem? why argue?
Ok. Thank you :). So, even in this verse, it means take those ‘souls’. Thank you for confirming and even elaborating that its referring to the hereafter. Therefore death. I again fail to understand why argue? We are talkin about the word. Word is referring to ‘soul’, and then referring to hereafter. Thus, death. Your analogy of ‘after death’ is very confusing. Clear the concept in your mind first.
You very cleverly only translated the word to meet your needs without taking into consideration if it even make sense to you, if you think it means taken up as in physically or after death.
Let me help you.
[2:234] And those of you who die and leave wives behind, these (wives) shall wait concerning themselves four months and ten days. And when they have reached the end of their period, no sin shall lie on you in anything that they do with regard to themselves according to what is fair. And Allah is aware of what you do.
Here is what you say about the verse : Those who are taken from you.
If you put ur translation to that whole verse, then it would imply that when a person is taken up to heaven by Allah, their wives should wait that many months and days.. but why is it that wives are given freedom after their period, and that no sin shall lie on you, if you will be sent back to earth bodily ?? Does it really make sense to you?? Read the verse for Allah’s sake and try fitting your explanation in it.
[2:240]** And those of you who die and leave behind wives shall bequeath to their wives provision for a year without their being turned out**. But if they themselves go out, there shall be no blame upon you in regard to any proper thing which they do concerning themselves. And Allah is Mighty, Wise.
3:195 Our Lord, forgive us, therefore, our errors and remove from us our evils, **and in death number us with the righteous
**
even in this verse, it means death. Only Allah will know whose righteous and we should pray that after death, join us with the righteous.
Ok. Now comes the ‘vital clue’ verse/verses. 
[4:15] And those of your women who are guilty of lewdness — call to witness four of you against them; and if they bear witness, then confine them to the houses **until death overtake them or Allah open for them a way
**
Please come again. Try your luck again. See if there is anything I’m saying from which you can find flaw. Find me verses from quran where you find flaws? Quran is an absolute truth. No verse contradict any other verse. Everything there is crystal clear. Confine women in houses until death overtake them (not when they’re taken up bodily) ( taken up, as in , taken their souls .. hence death). or Allah open for them a way. I see no problem understanding what Allah is saying? Do you not understand ?
Same case with 6:61 ??? really ? ok lets have a look at that too , but lets also have a verse before it taken into consideration as well.
[6:60] And He it is Who takes your souls by night and knows that which you do by day; then He raises you up again therein, that the appointed term may be completed. Then to Him is your return. Then will He inform you of what you used to do.
[6:61] And He is Supreme over His servants, and He sends guardians to watch over you, **until, when death comes to anyone of you, Our messengers take his soul, and they fail not.
**SubhanAllah. This is the book that i dearly love. Alhamdulillah, i thank Allah for guiding me to the true path, and making everything crystal clear for me to see and believe in. Please read Qur’an. Its an amazing book, with no rocket science involved in it. Like Allah says.. its a perfect book, there is no doubt in it; its a guidance to the righteous.
Your translations in the verses does not make sense. Please do revise them.
2:242 : Thus does Allah make His commandments clear to you that you may understand.
2:209 But if you slip after the clear Signs that have come to you, then know that Allah is Mighty, Wise
