      Yes Mufti was the first person I myself heard this from. I latter added some other links/verses as backup in livestream No.22. That essentially it is all about God's "call" ... for that is how He will resurrect the dead, via a "call" as is said in other verses

    57:47 but what do you know about what the Prophet believed about the verse? About pretty much the majority of verses? Since there are virtually no narrations of the Prophet expressing what he "believed" about any verses. Like he said ... you can only back- project what you think is correct onto the Prophet (though I personally think one shouldn't do that)

    • @IbnAshur
      @IbnAshur 9 месяцев назад +1

      Agree - I was just clarifying my conception of tafsir which seeks after the original, intended meaning. If we’re right to support what Abu Muslim said, do we think he was the first to understand 2:260 that way? There may be many who already did, but we just don’t have it stated and recorded. But I have to assume that the Prophet ﷺ is the first of those, because nobody could understand the Quran better than he. We may well be claiming to have got the point of this verse while many great scholars missed it, but there is a line to be drawn somewhere. ~SS

      How would anybody prove the non-existence of the divine authorship of the Quran? One could argue for the existence of the divine element in the Quran, but non-existence? It would be like asking to prove the non-existence of the supernatural by natural empirical means. It can't be done.

    Could it be that there was a dialog happening with Jews/Christians in the community ?around/including Genesis 15? and what was eventually recorded of the dialog in the Uthmanic Codex was the part with:
    1. God correcting a part of Genesis 15...excluding cutting/killing birds as outlined by Abu Muslim (meaning the story present in popular imagination at the time of the historical event amongst the Jews/Christians was incorrect). or
    2. God appropriating the ahistorical Genesis 15 narrative, and then retelling it but intentionally carrying both meanings (cutting or not cutting birds).
    Ultimately to teach some people amongst the Jews of the revelatory community that perhaps did not believe in any form of life after death that there would be a life after death? Assuming Jews with such beliefs (no "after-life" like some of the pagans) could have existed at that time/local.

    • @azhar4049
      @azhar4049 9 месяцев назад

      If I understand correctly, Sh. Saeed takes the parable of the Hamlet in Ruins literally? That is God un-alived someone physically and resurrected them after 100 years (a supernatural phenomena as he calls it) ? If yes, it would make more sense from that perspective the birds were killed as it would be consistent with that line of interpretation.
      Unless he views the parable as allegorical or something happening in the "imaginal", that is the person had a vision where they were un-alived and re-alived after 100 years, I don't see what the point is in giving this an interpretation beyond literal cutting/killing birds.

      @jamesgames7841 thanks for your personal opinion. The creativity that comes with justifying the Qurans shortcomings are really amusing.
      The Quran (I'll speak particularly in reference to the Hafs version of the Quran) is supposed to be written by god himself. So in your example, what would have been impressive is if the semi illiterate, understood it the exact same way as a high level philosopher. But we see many disagreements amongst even the high level scholars, let alone the laymen. You're attempting to turn a bug into a feature but the issue is that Islamic law is derived from the Quran (primarily), I can ask you a simple question to demonstrate the opposing contradictory views within the Hafs version of the Quran
      For example, is it halal to engage in intercourse with prepubescent girls?

      The Arabic language has a huge influence in non-arab languages of Muslim lands. This happened because of the spread of Islam and Quran. The message of the Quran and its meaning has been transmitted and spread throughout the Muslim world even those who do not know Arabic.
      There are no such predictions in the quran, it is just a book of the message that God wants the creation to know.
      Also it clearly targets explicitly all of mankind in its language.
