What If the Quran Is Wrong?
A Thought Experiment Muslims Fear to Take
π Introduction
“This is the Book in which there is no doubt…” — Quran 2:2
Islam doesn’t tolerate grey zones. The Quran is either:
-
Absolutely true, or
-
Completely false.
But real truth — doesn’t fear questions.
So let’s ask the one question that Muslims are trained never to ask:
❓ What if the Quran is wrong?
πͺ Thought Experiment Rules
Let’s suspend belief — just temporarily.
No apologetics. No “context.” No “you’re not a scholar.”
Just an honest thought experiment:
π§ͺ “Assume the Quran is not from Allah. What would we expect to find?”
π What Should a Divine Book Look Like?
If a book is from an all-knowing, all-powerful Creator, it should meet objective, universal standards. It should:
-
Be free from contradiction
-
Be morally flawless
-
Transcend time, place, and culture
-
Be scientifically accurate
-
Be historically verifiable
-
Be intellectually coherent
-
And crucially: adhere to the laws of logic and contain no logical fallacies
π That means:
❌ No circular reasoning — e.g. “The Quran is true because it says so”
❌ No false dilemmas — e.g. “Either you’re a believer or arrogant”
❌ No special pleading — e.g. “You need to know Arabic”
❌ No affirming the consequent — e.g. “It’s beautiful, so it must be divine”
❌ No equivocation, vagueness, or ambiguity to mask contradictions
If a philosophy undergrad can spot the fallacies — it's not from an eternal Mind.
❌ 1. Contradictions Are Everywhere
“If it had been from other than Allah, you would have found many contradictions in it.” — Quran 4:82
And we do:
-
6 vs. 8 days of creation
-
Jesus: died or not?
-
Pharaoh: drowned or saved?
-
Torah & Gospel: preserved or corrupted?
-
Free will vs. divine control
π By its own standard — the Quran is false.
❌ 2. Science? Dead on Arrival.
-
Semen from between ribs and backbone (86:6–7)
-
Sun sets in a muddy spring (18:86)
-
Stars are missiles to chase devils (67:5)
-
Embryology: “clot of blood”?
-
Earth spread out like a carpet (88:20)
These aren’t divine insights — they’re 7th-century superstitions.
❌ 3. Morality? Not Divine.
-
Child marriage modeled by Muhammad
-
Beating wives allowed (4:34)
-
Slavery and concubinage permitted
-
Death for apostasy and blasphemy
-
Eternal Hell for finite disbelief
A divine moral system should surpass tribal ethics — not replicate them.
❌ 4. History? Full of Errors.
-
Mary (mother of Jesus) confused with Miriam (sister of Aaron)
-
No external evidence of Mecca’s religious status pre-Islam
-
Quran borrows from Gnostic gospels, Jewish folklore, and apocrypha
-
Earliest Qurans show corrections, not perfection
-
Hadiths admit verses lost, eaten, forgotten, or abrogated
❌ 5. The Author Looks Human
-
Convenient revelations to justify Muhammad’s desires (33:37, 66:1)
-
No real prophecies or verifiable miracles
-
Frequent use of threats over reason: “Believe or burn”
-
Language full of pride, vengeance, and conditional mercy
-
Personal grievances (e.g., against Abu Lahab) included in the “eternal word of God”?
π These are human fingerprints — not divine ones.
π§ The Risk of Asking
Muslims are told that even questioning the Quran is dangerous.
Because if the Quran isn’t from Allah… then:
-
Muhammad isn’t a prophet
-
Sharia isn’t divine
-
Islam isn’t true
-
And everything changes
But fear of the answer is not the same as truth.
π What If It Is Wrong?
Then:
-
Billions are trapped in an illusion
-
Truth is being censored, not discovered
-
Apostates aren’t “rebels” — they’re honest thinkers
-
And you have the right to question — without guilt, shame, or fear
✅ Final Word
This isn’t hate. This is courage.
“If it’s true, it will survive your questions.
If it’s false, it deserves them.”
So ask the forbidden question:
❓ What if the Quran is wrong?
Because if it is —
Everything you were told to never doubt… finally makes sense.
