Qur'an Error: Was Mary Both the Mother of Jesus and the Sister of Aaron?

[safiyaclaire]

ps..I am not saying you don't have the right to question religion in order to understand. why don't you do the same thing to the Bible, especially catholic, i am sure you will find many errors and contraditions.

[safiyaclaire]

you are very smug and arrogant. If you have opinions, which is all this is, it is ok, but you don't have to be so arrogant. everything is open to interpretation and it depends on the person who is interpreting it: their beliefs..etc.

[8casm]

when the Quran says 'Mary the sister of Aaron' its not literal. She comes from the household and progeny of the brother of Moses who's name is..... AARON!!!!!!

my advise to Christians is to read their own book first and see the contradiction in it. Read a book called the red letter bible. It has all the quotes of Jesus without the paul, mathew, mark, luke and john writtings in it. And see exactly what Jesus SAID and what muslims believe. They are one and the same.

[mawa89g]

@8casm

If with "red letter bible" you mean the ones where Jesus' words are printed in red, you couldn't be more wrong than assuming that he teaches the same as Muslims believe.

If I go through major parts where Jesus is speaking - the sermon of the mount, for instance - I can tell so many things where Islam teaches different. There is not much "red printed" left if you remove everything that would stand against Islam. Not to mention how often Jesus said he would die.

[MrDaBBaS]

Simple. Mary is from the house of imran, Moses and Aaron are also from the house of imran, you do the math it's not rocket science

Amazing how much you people who hate Islam are more attached to it than Muslims themselves

Epic

[AtheistSpanker]

Sounds like that knucklehead Moohamhead made it all up as he went along. Islam is the most ridiculous religion on earth.

[EntrepreneurMoney]

39 muslims still think Jesus's mother Mary is Moses' sister

[hamzah938]

"Sister of Aaron" - just means she was a descendant of Aaron (House of Imran). And yes, to answer your DISTORTED question, I will ignore this as it is not an 'error'.

[JushinEmpire]

@hamzah938 either Quran or Hadith reveals that Muhammad himself said 'sister of Aaron' is a metaphorical expression from old Jewish traditions of taking names from reverned ancestors. However, there is absolutely no evidence for the Jews ever calling anybody sister of an ancestor, expecially sister of Aaron or brother of Moses.

[JushinEmpire]

@hamzah938 besides, St. Mary, the Mother of God is NOT descended from Levi tribe. (Prophet Moses was from Levi tribe).

[JesusChristAboveAll]

There are 2 genealogies given for Jesus Christ in the New Testament; Matthew 1 and Luke 3. Both record him as a descendant of Judah son of Jacob, and not of Levi. Moses, Aaron and their sister Miriam were Levites.

One NT genealogy may be that of Mary the mother of Jesus Christ, while the other is of Joseph; the adoptive father of Jesus Christ.

[nubemuffin]

@hamzah938 sister indicates a contemporary relationship. If Muhammad was trying to refer to descendents would he have not have said "Daughter of Aaron" instead of "Sister of Aaron."

You still didn't explain Muhammad's lie about such a metaphor being widespread in the first century. Or how the mother of believers (what?? not sister of believers?) thought they were the same people.

[CBALLEN]

@nubemuffin Great point! Muhammad sure made it hard for the Muslims to straighten out his mess.God Bless.

[not4u4ever]

in fact .. you said many things .. what i am sure about is ( ISLAM IS TRUE ) .. thats all .

[iwantyou9944]

lol aisha didnt have the interpetation of the prophet muhmed before  the man correct her lol realy stupid christian thats if the isnad of hadith its true and if its is hadith not interptation of ibn kather lol

[iwantyou9944]

iam muslim the answer very very simple in bible mattew 21:9 jesus was son of david very easy right ?

[ThePeacefulmuslimah]

The guy is a real trail for the ppl with weak faith he says whatever he likes with little knowledge trying to reinterpret Quran! ALTOUGH EVERYTHING IS VERY CLEAR THE SISTER OF MOSES(A:) AND THE MOTHER OF JESUS(A:) ARE DIFFERNT WITH SAME NAME PROBLEM SOLVED!!! HE BETTER WORRY ABOUT THE FAIRY TALES IN BIBLE!

[Nakdimon316]

@ThePeacefulmuslimah EXACTLY. The sister of Moses is completely different from the mother of Jesus. But the sister of Moses is also the sister of Aaron, which, as you urself said, is NOT the mother of Jesus! Therefore the Quran is WRONG! Different people with the same name, but the Quran doesnt distinguish between them. The author of the Quran thinks they are the same person! LOL. And we have a hadith to go with it as decisive proof! What do u have to prove the Quran means two different people?

[hamzahfaruq]

THIS IS SO STUPID.

[Gunderson002]

'Maryam' is the Arabic equivalent of the English name 'Mary'. so Mary, mother of Jesus, is called 'Maryam' in Arabic.

In addition, this is a different Aaron from Moses' brother. It was someone who (allegedly, at least) lived there at the time and was a relative or close associate of Mary.

I'm a critic of Islam but this is just stupid.

[karlmall]

@Gunderson002 - The quran calls "Maryam", the mother of Jesus, both, "Aaron's sister" and "Daughter of Imraan". Since according to bible Aaron did in fact have a sister called Maryam, Muhammad obviously thought of Maryam, Aaron's sister and Maryam, Jesus mother, as an identical person not realizing that those two Maryams lived around 1200 years apart. There is no doubt about that.

[salehalhadi]

Pg:3

I do not agree with the popular position that all the previous laws have been abandoned for the People of the Book and replaced by the laws of the Quran which they must follow. I find no support for this assertion in the Quran. The Quranic 'laws' are for 'Mu'mins' (believers).

In fact, if they (chiristians & jews) don't follow their laws, the Quran calls them 'Kaffir'. Please read verses in Q- 5:43-45 yourself

[salehalhadi]

Pg.2

Q-005.043

"But why do they come to you for decision, when they have (their own) Torah before them? therein is the (plain) command of God; yet even after that, they would turn away. For they are not People of Faith"

[salehalhadi]

@OneBibleOneGod Pro Muhammad & Pro Jesus are GODLY Men, Ambassador of GOD,they taught theTRUTH unlike u, where u encougrage ur daughters to have sex at a very young age,In America, 13% of the population r the product of incestuous relationship,40% of the men r homosexual,IS THAT UR SICK FATHER CHRISTMAS TAUGHT U FROM THE BIBLE!

[hetmanbasza]

@salehalhadi

Again, you try to insult me personally while you loose the faith argument becasue you have no rebutals. Neither in Islam nor in your very limited understanding of Christianity.

Incest and child abuse penalties were put in the law by God milenia before your prophet poped out into this world. As far as we know it, he liked children. 54 year old man and 9 year old girl screams for justice to high heaven. No wonder God did not allow any offspring from that one!

[salehalhadi]

@hetmanbasza I'm on another part of the globe,if u may undertstand or do u need an elucidation on it.I was wondering if u ever are educated coz after ur last message i find that u r an unprofessional individual just like those others.The People of the Book were to be judged by their own scriptures. The directives have been clearly mentioned in the Quran, but unfortunately they are not accepted in popular Muslim thought.

[salehalhadi]

@gavin238612 - PG.2

[5:117] "I told them only what You commanded me to say, that: `You shall worship GOD, my Lord and your Lord.' I was a witness among them for as long as I lived with them. When You terminated my life on earth, You became the Watcher over them. You witness all things.

IT SHOWS CLEARLY THAT JESUS NEVER SAID THAT HE IS GOD.

NIV-EXODUS-34:14-FOR U SHALL WORSHIP NO GOD.FOR THE LORD,WHOSE NAME IS JEALOUS, IS A JEALOUS GOD.

[awgamblin1987]

Nice observations. It speaks volumes that exegesis of the quran and hadiths show that Muhammad, cursed be he, was a liar.

[salehalhadi]

@awgamblin1987 look whose talking, check ur bible b4 talking, Genesis 38 - Judah having incestuous relationship with his daughter in law?

Deu-2:19 - Prophet of GOD having incestuous relationship with his daughters?

Ezekiel-23 - the bible talking about porstitutes having sexual relationship?

Are these Words of GOD? These ARE setanic verses. Is these what ur setan fathers preach u. No wonder 90% of all porn stars are christians. Patetic christians. A DISGRACE TO THE HUMAN RACE!

[Nakdimon316]

@salehalhadi YES! These are words of God and they reveal the sinfulness of man. The Bible is not a book to "honor" prophets. It is a book that reveals sinfulness of man vs the holiness of God. If that bothers you, then no wonder you are a Muslim, who are only concerned with honoring prophets, with no emphasis on sin. Satanic verses are found in the Quran that promotes pedophelia (65:4), adultery and rape (5:87, 4:24), wife beating (4:34), etc.BTW how do u know 90% of pornstars are christian?

[ThePeacefulmuslimah]

@Nakdimon316 You follow those evil antimuslims who take a tiny portion from a huge verse out of context and arabic text and start blabing lies about QURAN. If u don't understand the Quran that doesn't mean its not a divine revealation.Alhamdullih! still afterall these blaming misunderstanding Islam is entering the hearts of millions! Bible ''dishonours'' the prophets that means ur so called God choose prophets to warn humans for what ? teach humans to become evil and follow the satan?

[Nakdimon316]

@ThePeacefulmuslimah So how do we misinterpret the Quran? You know whats so funny about this? We read the Quran at face value and refer to Hadith and tafsir for support of our interpretation. Along come Muslims and tell us we lie. BUT they dont provide ANY proof that we do! All you have are emotional objections without any evidence. How about quoting an explanation from the Quran or a hadith or tafsir to prove that we lie? Just saying we lie without proof only proves WE tell the truth, NOT YOU.

[salehalhadi]

@OneBibleOneGod Pg.2

according to GOD's own law, as revealed thru Pro Moses and further to be ostracised and debarred from the Hse of GOD for generations.Check:-

Matthew 1:6-16

David to Jesus - 26 individuals

Luke 3:23-31

David to Jesus - 41 individuals

Why should GOD give a "father' Joseph to HIS "son" Jesus? u will also easily observe that the lists r contradictrory. Could both the lists have emanated form the same source, i.e. GOD?

[OneBibleOneGod]

@salehalhadi Stop avoiding the error in ur own book perhaps then i will waste my time in explaining u the Bible

[OneBibleOneGod]

@salehalhadi

I ask u to bring me one example from the Quran besides Mary of a person who is also called sister of a prophet or daughter of the father of a prophet who lived many centuries earlier. Jesus in ur quran is always called son of Mary.. so why is Mary called daughter of Imran ? u muslims need to stop making up excuses for ur erroneous incoherent book of lies i.e gospel of muhammad

[salehalhadi]

@OneBibleOneGod U can NEVER finds any error in the Quran unlike ur bible, 50000 errors, check AWAKE dated Sep 8 1957. No matter how much proofs i give u, u will never accept coz ur an IDOLWORSHIPPER.HQ-02-18,DEAF DUMB & BLIND, U WILL NEVER GO BACK [TO THE PATH OF GOD]. But since u sarcastically insist, i will sarcastically not resist ur request, if u can give me ur email add, i'll pass u the website which u can check on the topic u r interested. Not able to give u the website here.

[OneBibleOneGod]

@salehalhadi Idiot muslim, there are plenty of errors in the quran and in this video, one of them is presented.. also the hadiths are full of errors and weird and stupid sayings of muhammad.. Besides the Donald Duck doesn't have any errors either should we take the Donald Duck as the word of God too? U muslims are irrational and full of nonsense.. Did ur false pedophile prophet ever prove anything he said? Did he ever quote the prophets to prove he was speaking the truth like Jesus did? NO!

[salehalhadi]

@hetmanbasza Pg.2

Prophet Jesus is only human,He lives,eat and dies. GOD IS FOREVER. With regards to war, check urself, who are the transgressors.Be fair, dunt transgress.

[salehalhadi]

@gavin238612 - PG.1

Check the Quranic verses (The context of the verse is in the future)

[5:116] GOD will say, "O Jesus, son of Mary, did you say to the people, `Make me and my mother idols beside GOD?' " He will say, "Be You glorified. I could not utter what was not right. Had I said it, You already would have known it. You know my thoughts, and I do not know Your thoughts. You know all the secrets.

[gavin238612]

@salehalhadi men devoid of truth will only ever dispute the word of god. Islam, the only way people can make any sense of it is to defame 2 other religions, charming. even though to do so is blasfamy against quran. Ie"confirm law between their hands". It took muslims 400 years to come up with this rubbish about bible changed. So Allah preserve 5600 copies of New testament pre dating Muhammad but no true injil. Yer right

[hetmanbasza]

@gavin238612

Bravo! Well said.

[vixi92]

This guy needs to study Semetic culture and remember Mary , Moahmmad and jesus were not Americans

[vixi92]

what is the big deal? Bible calls pious people, "SONS OF GOD" AND jESUS " SON OF MAN, and " SON OF DAVID..........get over it people, smell your ass before others

[OneBibleOneGod]

@vixi92 The big deal is that ur quran says that the mother of Mary was the wife of Imran and thats why Mary is also called the daughter of Imran in ur quran.. there is no way around this error.. and why is Jesus only called son of Mary? Show us one other instance from ur quran where a person is identified as daughter or sister of a prophet who lived centuries earlier..

[salehalhadi]

@OneBibleOneGod Pg.1 Ur understanding of the Quran is zero.u dunt understand ur bible, how can u undertand the Quran,GOD KNOWS BETTER about the geneology not like ur christians father who have foisted the incestuous progenies of the OT upon their Lord and Saviour,Jesus Christ,in the NT.For a man who had no geneology, they manufactured one for him and what a geneology! 6 adulteres and offsprings of incest are imposed upon The Ambassador of GOD.Men & women deserving to be stoned to death

[salehalhadi]

@hetmanbasza What about the so called New Testament,Why does every Gospel begin with the introduction 'ACCORDING TO....ACCORDING TO...Why 'according to' because not a single one of the vaunted 4000 copies extant carries its author's autograph! Hence the supposition 'according to!' Even the internal evidence proves that Matthew was not the author of the 1st Gospel which bears his name.' Check Matthew 9:9. I am not alone in this discovery. ur fellow christians bro J B Phillips concur this.

[OneBibleOneGod]

its amazing how muslims can reject the over a hundred fullfilled Messianic prophecies by Jesus recorded in the New Testament, and accept all the historical errors and nonsense of Muhammad. Its unbelievable

[DannyAbdillah]

@OneBibleOneGod new testament is self-fullfill old testament prophecy, the roman made it so, the most wonderfull of Bible is fullfillment of prophecy that already fullfill by the prophets before Jesus. wasn't that amazing? and don't ask muslim, we accept Jesus as messenger of Allah. ask the Jews why they reject Jesus as messenger of God. and ask yourself why you reject Jesus as messenger of God.

[OneBibleOneGod]

@Danny Ah yes.. over a 100 fullfilled prophecies by Jesus was all made up by Romans.. yea right, do u have prove for that claim idiot? And ur Muhammad fullfilled not even one prophecy so why should i reject 100 fullfilled prophecies by Jesus in the New Testament and believe Muhammad instead who fullfilled not one prophecy? You have some courage to make God into a liar.. u muslims believe in prophets who never prophecized anything haha.. Go waste someone else time with ur lies & baseless claims

[DannyAbdillah]

@OneBibleOneGod Can Jesus prophecied the coming messiah, and then suddently He say "I am He"?

or when the roman give Jesus to them, but then the roman soldier that take Jesus to be crucified? or Jesus was gay, He is talk so romantic to the male disciple? or a tons of other non-sense contradiction story?

I don't have to be a scholar to know there is messed up, contradiction content in Bible.

[OneBibleOneGod]

@DannyAbdillah Learn English first because ur not making any sense

[DannyAbdillah]

@OneBibleOneGod for what? for convince you that Bible is a roman made up? to make you agree that the roman change the Bible to meet their trinitarian religion?

[OneBibleOneGod]

@DannyAbdillah ur quran was made up by muhammad what about that?

[DannyAbdillah]

@OneBibleOneGod you can see an ant across the sea, but you can't see an elephant in front of your noose?

[OneBibleOneGod]

@DannyAbdillah And Jesus quotes those prophecies concerning himself in the New Testament to prove that the New Testament is true.. and we can look up if Jesus spoke the truth by reading what the prophets of the Old Testament wrote.. we cannot do that for ur muhammad and islam because muhammad and islam contradicts every prophet and every book in the Bible.

[hetmanbasza]

Muhammad dickedup on this one as evidence showes.

Any smart coments from the muslim side?

Quaran is simply insufficient to clariffy this for muslims. Read the pertinante parts in the Bible.

[salehalhadi]

@hetmanbasza Where is ur original bible in the original language?COLLINS the publisher of the bible [RSV] at the end of their production has this to say "THIS BIBLE IS THE PRODUCT OF 32 SCHOLARS, ASSISTED BY AN ADVISORY COMMITTEE REPRESENTING 50 CO-OPERATING DENOMINATIONS. so how can the bible be word of GOD or even Prophet Jesus for that matter? Matthew 13:13...seeing they see not and hearing they hear not, neither they understand."

[hetmanbasza]

@salehalhadi

Learn Arameic, clasical Greek, Hebrew and then we shall discuss the Old and New Testament. All are available for your viewing pleasure. I am not here to convince you of anything yet, do not insult my inteligence by attempting to BLINDLY make me follow your fable written in third person that is speaking for Allah. If Quaran is his his book why is he not using "I AM...."?

[salehalhadi]

@hetmanbasza U r insulting u own intelligence.FYI no one is converting u.Dunt try to act smart.u dunt even understand the bible! U dunt even know the history of Pro Jesus! Not only that, i bet u cannot explain the essence of GOD? Tell me. I am waiting for ur ANSWER.

[hetmanbasza]

@salehalhadi

The essence of God in one word is LOVE. But you will not understand this concept. It is not in Islam.

It is allways funny how muslims are attempting to "educate" other religions about their faith.

The only puropse for Islam is to deny Jesuses divinty. No death on the cross= no resurection= need for "last prophet".

Love does not exist in Islam. Only Jihad. These 2 concepts are mutually exclusive. Muhammad said, even after the war is over you must still fight.

[salehalhadi]

@hetmanbasza Pg.1

Ur knownlege is very low. It is u who does not understand because idolworshippers can NEVER understand the essence of GOD.U dunt understand GOD how can u understand LOVE! Since u are a bro in humanity, let me explain.GOD, THE ALL TRANCANDENCE ONE,CREATOR OF THIS SPACE,TIME,EXISTENCE AND IS TRANSCANDS FROM THIS SPACE,TIME&EXISTENCE.HE IS NOT SUBJECTED TO HIS OWN CREATIONS.ALL BEINGS ARE SUBJECTED TO THIS SPACE,TIME AND EXISTENCE.That goes for Prophet Muhd,Jesus,Moses and All.

[hetmanbasza]

@salehalhadi

You really did not state any new concept for me. It sounds a bit like strictly Catholic but there is lots more to it.

This may be more news for you: Understand the Creeds and you will realize how strict Christian beliefs are.

Read the Bible as a Law Book and you will see how powerfull the judgements contained there are.

Muhammad refered fuding christians back to the Bible to solve their problems when they asked him.

If it was good enough for him it should be for you too.

[Pwnte24]

so they said 1- "O sister of (Aaron) "what else can you describe a man who was named after a prophet and was very religious except calling his name ? 2- (your father was not a man of evil) 3- (nor your mother was a woman unchaste) , they described her family to her to make her feel shame and guilt , your family was religious how could you do such a thing !! " but they didn't realize that the child was a miracle from Allah until eisa (jesus) spoke and said that Allah has made him a prophet "
