Who's the Koranic father of Jesus?Re: Who's the Koranic father of Jesus?
What's amazing here is that NONE of the proper names in 4.163 is from Hebrew, nor from Arabic! They're ALL from plain Syriac. That goes on too about the names in 6.85-86, like: Zakarīyā, Yaĥya, Ilyāsa, Yasa`a, or again Yūnus: Syriac, while Hebrew would be expected! Ibrahim should be written Abu Raheem in Arabic. It's not! Even Musa is Syriac from Greek: Hebrew: Moshe; Greek: Mōusēs; Arabic: موسىٰ Mūsa! More so the name of Ismael as written, has no Semitic root at all... it's all but Greek! The case of Isa is even more perplexing, for Jesus is never referred to as Isa, except in the Koran. In Arabic it should be written Yasoo (or Yasu as in the Arabic bibles), but it's not so: only Isa is... Syriac Influence On The Style Of The Kur'an. By Alphonse Mingana, D.D. http://www.bible.ca/islam/library/Minga ... /index.htm
So the ONLY indication that we have about Isa is a fronton mentioning Isaniyah: the followers of Isa, which is meagre. Digging out we find out that it comes directly from Hinduism, where it meant the spiritual dominion of God over the entire, unified, Universe. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isha_Upanishad http://www.san.beck.org/Upan3-Isha.html --One seer, controller, sun, child of the creator, --spread your light and gather your brilliance --that I may see your loveliest form. --Whatever is that Spirit, that also am I. --May this life enter into the immortal breath! There we can read some attributes of Isa: Seer, child of the creator, light, Spirit, Breath! No doubt: the Koranic Isa is so defined! Or are we talking about... Issa, a Khasmiri saint? Anyway, this saint Issa is yet a divine surname for some Yuz Asaph (ie. Yusuf the Healer). Isa was unheard of as a human name in Arabia before the Koran... It's a title like al-Masih! Perplexed Islamic 'scholars' came with the idea that is was so written to rhythm with Musa! The Koran used his Hebrew name, Yeshua, to express Allah's will (Yashaa). And the etymological concordance (both YS-h) is simply too overwhelming.
Noops, AB. What 3.59 is saying is that Isa is ONE WITH Allah in Spirit as His Word (4.171), His Ruhullah and Kalimatullah! Yet created as a person in the likeness of Adam. But unlike Adam (who have sinned and to whom angels bowed down), Isa was faultless and could himself create life out of clay and raising from the dead (3.49; 5.110). Quite different from Adam, isn't it? Except from that dust thing... So Isa was timelessly 'made' as: ''A revelation for mankind and a mercy from Us, and it is a thing ordained'' (19.21). 3.55: ... O Jesus! Lo! I am gathering thee and causing thee to ascend unto Me, and am cleansing thee of those who disbelieve and am setting those who follow thee above those who disbelieve until the Day of Resurrection. Now, this ''causing thee to ascend UNTO ME'' is the equivalent of being melt into the godhead of Allah!
It's rather quite the opposite AB: The Koran acknowledges the divinity of the titled 'Isa' as Allah's yashaa (al-kalimah or Logos)! 22.40: Had it not been for Allah's repelling some men by means of others, cloisters and churches and oratories and mosques, wherein the name of Allah is oft mentioned, would assuredly have been pulled down. Verily Allah helpeth one who helpeth Him. If the name of Allah was oft mentioned in cloisters, churches and oratories, certainly it was along that of Jesus... as His Father! 43:45 Ask those of Our messengers whom We sent before thee: Did We ever appoint gods to be worshiped beside the Beneficent ? And Allah protected them as well as His mosques! So where did Islam got so wrong? ![]() Last edited by The Cat on Tue Dec 21, 2010 8:30 pm, edited 1 time in total.
Authority has the same etymological root as authenticity.
Re: Who's the Koranic father of Jesus?6:101 is just Muhammad not thinking things through thoroughly enough once again and forgetting about the attributes that his Allah hand puppet is supposed to have. He was terrible at philosophy and/or building philosophical constructs and never seemed to think the problem through deeply enough. That sort of thinking completely eluded him, and it lead to all sorts of logical errors that one picks up if they are educated enough and think it through enough. So while he appeared to be quite clever and crafty as a General, his logic and reasoning abilities were underdeveloped. Sometimes, almost childlike. And the problem is, once it was recited that way, he couldn't take it back after somebody showed him the clear, logical inconsistency. So it's quite plausible and explainable for mistakes such as this to remain in the Quran. It's not like he can come back later and correct his Allah hand puppet (unless one believes the satanic verses).

Re: Who's the Koranic father of Jesus?
Hi again Skenderberg... Yep, the mods took care of these disgraceful depictions (thanks mods)... Just a word now to say that the promised thread in Resource Center is now showing, although only the 1st part is yet completed... The Koranic Isa Study over the origin of the name & over the Koranic 'son of' (ie. Allah & Mary) viewtopic.php?f=30&t=8769 The other three parts are in my files and I'll publish them after some polishing. I hope you'll like it. Bye and thanks (again) for your good words... Btw. Since comments aren't welcome over there, they could be done right here. Authority has the same etymological root as authenticity.
