Pharaoh Preserved...

Pharaoh Preserved... A sign of Many signs in the Quran...
----------------------
Pharaoh regarded himself as a deity and responded with slanders and threats to Prophet Musa's (as) calls for him to believe in Allah. This arrogant attitude lasted until he was faced with the threat of death through drowning. The Qur'an relates that Pharaoh immediately turned to belief when faced with Allah's punishment:

We brought the tribe of Israel across the sea, and Pharaoh and his troops pursued them out of tyranny and enmity. Then, when he was on the point of drowning, he [Pharaoh] said: "I believe that there is no god but Him in Whom the tribe of Israel believes. I am one of the Muslims." (Qur'an, 10:90)

However, this last-minute conversion was not accepted, for it was not sincere. According to the Qur'an, Allah exclaimed:

"What, now! When previously you rebelled and were one of the corrupters? Today we will preserve your body so you can be a Sign for people who come after you. Surely many people are heedless of Our Signs." (Qur'an, 10:91-92)

The information that Pharaoh's corpse would serve as a sign for later generations may be regarded as an indication that his body would not decay. On display in the Royal Mummies Chamber of the Egyptian Museum in Cairo is a mummified body believed to be that of this tyrant. In all likelihood, Pharaoh's body floated to shore after being drowned, was found and mummified by the Egyptians, and then carried to a previously prepared burial chamber.182

The same story is mentioned in the Midrash in the Jewish apocrypha (Book of Jonah, chapt 3:6), where the Pharaoh is plucked from the sea and shown as a symbol and then sent to Nineveh.

No text from any Islamic source manages to positively identify which Pharaoh the Koran is talking about.

Like I said, it's clearly irrelevant. Bye now.

Like I said, it's clearly irrelevant. If you cannot see that, then bye. To you is your way of life, to me is mine.

@Oo786oO Bucaille working for the Saudis is irrelevant is it? How come so many Muslim miracle seekers are so keen to deny it then? You say proof is required. Can you tell me what form of proof you'd accept, given that Bucaille himself happily admitted to this fact? So having as your star (only) witness to a miracle claim someone who was on the payroll of dictators who have spent the last 30 years promulgating by dubious means the lie that the Qur'an is full of scientific miracles is irrelevant?

@TheCaptainhaddock1

Maybe he doesn't have time to type to someone who misconstrues statements. Neither do I. The burden of proof is upon you. Whether he worked for the saudi government or not is irrelevant. If he did, proof is required. If there's proof, so what? It really doesn't strengthen your claim. I may be registered with the GMC, I may discover something great in their medical guidelines, does that mean it's "as a result of" them paying me? Ofcourse not, that is illogical.

[TheCaptainhaddock1]

@Oo786oO So does Ekilic NOT agree with me then...? If he doesn't agree that Bucaille worked for the Saudi Royal family, surely he is capable of saying so for himself. How about you, 0o7860o? Do you accept that Bucaille was the physician to the Saudi Royal family?

@TheCaptainhaddock1

"Let's say he worked for them" doesn't prove that ekilic agrees with you, nor is it a contradiction. Ekilic is just highlighting "Even "if" we were to believe...". Does this clear English make sense?

[TheCaptainhaddock1]

@ekilic111 not entirely sure what you think this proves? Apart from the fact the English makes no sense: "a lameness extraction from a small muscular tissue occurred in Cairo" means what exactly?

And by the way, do you remember writing: PROVE TO ME THAT HE WORKED FOR THE ROYAL FAMILY AND ILL BELIEVE YOU"...? You then accept that Bucaille did work for the Saudi royal family: "let's say he worked for them", but refuse to accept the truth... that this is all lies to con you into believing
