Quran is full of moral stories and metaphors

Re: Quran is full of moral stories and metaphors

@kchughtai

one who says that there are only metaphors and moral stories in Quran is not right
one who says that everything mentioned in the Quran should be taken literally is not right as well. At many places, metaphors have been used in the holy Quran.

As far as sir syed ahmed is concerned, perhaps he tried bridge the gap between belief and reason at the onset of age of information, reason and logic. He placed contemporary understanding/knowledge as a criteria to interpret Quranic verses. He may be right at some points but his direction of thought was not right.

Do you think that Sir Syed was able to bridge up that gap with his new explanations? and why do you think that belief and reason are two different things.

Don’t you think the way Quran was revealed according to circumstances over a period of time (23 years) is itself a proof that there was a reason for revealing a particular verse on a particular time.
