Here&#8217;s this is their arrogance, despite knowing the prophet Mu\u1e25ammad was illiterate and it was impossible for him to forge it they stubbornly put this excuse out, and hence here the Qur&#8217;\u0101n refutes them stating that had this Qur&#8217;\u0101n been in foreign language the polytheists would again put another excuse stating how can an Arab bring an non-Arabic revealation , proposing that it surely has an external source (i.e. foreigners) and not divine hence the Qur&#8217;\u0101n was sent in Arabic so that the Arabs won&#8217;t have any excuse.It&#8217;s quite ridiculous to think that this verse is implying that the Qur&#8217;\u0101n is just for Arabs.Where as this verse is refuting and demolishing the excuses of polytheists.The next verse quoted by Agniveer is,<\/span><span style=\"font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;margin-left:72pt;\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;\">&#8220;Verily, <span style=\"text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>We have made it a Qur&#8217;\u0101n in Arabic <span style=\"color:red;\">that you may be able to understand<\/span><\/strong><\/span> (its meanings and its admonitions).&#8221;<\/span><span style=\"font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 &#8211; [S\u016brah <span style=\"color:black;\">az-Zukhruf (43):3]<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;\">What&#8217;s the problem with this verse it is crystal clear!

Simply put, the speculation of Agniveer is nothing but cheap trickery and is out of context quotation so as to gain the credulity of his cultist blind-followers.Further Agniveer referring to the verses (198-199) writes <em>&#8220;I also realized that Prophet did not want Quran to be followed by non-Arabs in first place. Had that not been so, why would he have asserted that non-Arabs could not have believed in Arabic Quran even if it were revealed to them?

The verse is clear that non-Arabs would have excuse , that they did not understand Arabic and that this (Qur&#8217;\u0101n) could have been a foreigners handiwork so as to gain some political advantage somehow , non-Arabs wouldn&#8217;t have believed in the Qur&#8217;\u0101n not because the Qur&#8217;\u0101n was only for Arabs but because they would have the excuse of it being in Arabic and that the Arabs have themselves have believed and the non-Arabs have learnt and mastered Arabic and can learn (those who&#8217;ve not believed), there remains no excuse. Hence this verse simply is stating that the non-Arabs would have an excuse due to their stubborness of not learning a the Arabic language, so it was revelead in Arabic and reasons why it was revelead in Arabic will be stated later in the article.<\/span><span style=\"font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;\">This was just a very short review of the verses provided by Agniveer, it could go lengthier but that would deviate the article from the topic, hence we&#8217;ve been precise.<\/span><span style=\"font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;\">Now coming to some ignorant claims and statements of Agniveer, where he tries to prove his concoctions but utterly fails at it, he writes that <em>&#8220;Quran was not supposed to be for non-Arabs in first place.

(See the sub-section &#8220;<strong>Vedas weren&#8217;t revealed at inception of humanity&#8221;<\/strong>). <\/span><span style=\"font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;\">As per M\u016blshankar Sanskrit is the Mother of all languages, but how is it possible? Let&#8217;s us explain the issue, during the <strong>gap<\/strong> (time period), when humans were doing deeds of various kinds, inorder to do various kinds of deeds, action there is a necessity of an language, for example how can a person live without a language, where in he knows not the name of anything that exists around him, how would he indulge in actions? Hence this proves that if humans existed so did a language exist, so this proves that Sanskrit isn&#8217;t the mother of all languages nor the oldest of all languages,as Sanskrit was unknown to humans until the revealation of vedas and infact even the rishis were ignorant of Sanskrit it was Ishwar who taught them Sanskrit.As stated by M\u016blshankar:<\/span><span style=\"font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;margin-left:72pt;\"><span style=\"color:black;\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;\">38. <strong>The Vedas were revealed in the Sanskrit language. <span style=\"color:red;text-decoration:underline;\">Those Rishis were ignorant of that language.

He made known unto them the meanings of the desired mantras.<\/span><\/strong><\/span> When the Vedas were thus revealed to many Rishis, they made expositions with historical illustrations of the Vedic mantras and embodied them in books called the Brahmanas which literally means an exposition of the Veda.<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;\">Thus it&#8217;s proven that Sanskrit isn&#8217;t the mother-of-all languages nor the oldest of all languages, either one or many languages existed amongst humans during the gap between inception of humanity and revelation of vedas, which enabled them to indulge in various kinds of deed and action which became the basis for Ishwar to select four humans amongst the thousands of humans so as to reveal the vedas.<\/span><span style=\"font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;\">Another important point is that this also proves that the <strong>gap<\/strong> (time period) between inception of humanity and revelation of vedas was very substantial as just developing a language requires centuries, atleast when there exists no language and work has to be started from scratch.<span style=\"text-decoration:underline;\">Thus the conclusion is that Sanskrit isn&#8217;t the mother of all languages nor is the oldest language<\/span>.<\/span><span style=\"font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;\">Now coming to the contentions of M\u016blshankar he writes that if a divine book is revelead in a language specific to a country God becomes partial.And Agniveer states that <em>&#8220;If Quran was meant for non-Arabs, it would have been sent in vernacular languages and not in a language that hardly anyone understands in non-Arab world.&#8221;<\/em><\/span><span style=\"font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;\">Applying the logic of M\u016blshankar and Agniveer, on their own creed would mean that vedas should be rejected.Due to the following reasons:<\/span><span style=\"font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;\">1) Did not Ishwar become partial by teaching Sanskrit only to 4 \u1e5bishis and not to others? As, what does a language has to do with pure hearts? Ishwar could have taught every human Sanskrit and then tested them, then revealed the vedas to four people with purest hearts. This proves that Ishwar was partial as, a language has nothing to do with pure hearts for instance, is learning Sanskrit prohibited for a terrorist? Or a terrorist by nature is unable to learn Sanskrit as; he does not have a pure heart.

Again, no one except four rishis understood Sanskrit, initially even they were ignorant but were later taught by Ishwar, so how did protestant Hind\u016bs embrace such an alien language which they did not understand? In fact, even today more thatn 95% of Hindus don&#8217;t understand Sanskrit so should they leave vedas and Hind\u016bism? <\/span><span style=\"font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;\">Few other issues which Agniveer is having hard time fathoming is that the noble Qur&#8217;an is in Arabic and that those who knew Arabic (Arabs and non-Arabs) were the first to understand it, through this he alludes that Qur&#8217;an is for Arabs only! Well, the Qur&#8217;an is in Arabic and Arabs and all those who knew Arabic had the duty to convey the message to the world for instance the companions of Prophet Muhammad those were non-Arabs but were masters of Arabic, for instance <strong>Bil\u0101l ibn Rabah, Salim bin Ma&#8217;qil, Shu&#8217;ayb ar-Rumi, Salm\u0101n al-F\u0101rsi, Abd&#8217;All\u0101h ibn Sal\u0101m, \u1e62\u0101li\u1e25 ibn Ady (Shuqran), Abu Kabasha Salim ad-Dawsi, Abu Musra Ansa.<\/strong><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;\">So the logic, \u00a0which Agniveer is applying to Isl\u0101m, let&#8217;s apply that to his own creed ,Sanskrit was taught only to the four \u1e5bishis, so does that mean its only for them, and they shouldn&#8217;t preach it? So why did Hindus accept what was preached by the \u1e5bishis? Just like Agniveer is adamantly rejecting the Qur&#8217;an because it&#8217;s in Arabic and was preached by those who knew Arabic <em>(Arabs and non-Arabs)<\/em>.

As a general statement, Yahya Ibn Sa`eed graded Ibn Ishaq as being weak in Hadith narration. Imam Ahmad Ibn Hanbal discounted the reliability of Ibn Ishaq if he alone narrates a Hadith. Also, Imams Yahya Ibn Ma`een (in another narration from him), an-Nasaii and ad-Daraqutni stated that Ibn Ishaq was weak in Hadith\u2026Imam Ibn Numair said that Ibn Ishaq reported false Hadith s from unknown narrators\u2026<\/span><span style=\"font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;margin-left:72pt;\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;\">4. <strong>Adh-Dhahabi listed some of the reasons why Ibn Is`haq was considered weak regarding Hadith narration, as follows:<\/strong><\/span><span style=\"font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;margin-left:72pt;\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;\">A) Imam A`hmad Ibn Hanbal stated that Ibn Is`haq was a\u00a0<strong>Mudallis\u00a0<\/strong>[Ibn Is`haq often started his narrations by saying, Those whom I trust narrated to me, or Some men from this city told me, etc. He also would collect Hadith s from unreliable narrators and hide the name of his teacher by saying, So and So said, meaning the teacher of his teacher, who may be trustworthy, so that the Hadith narration is not rejected if the name of his own teacher is specified.

Yet, Imam Ahmad stated that if Ibn Ishaq is the only narrator of that Hadith, then his narration is discounted. And the key words to look for here, for Ibn Ishaq&#8217;s narration not to be dismissed outright, are, If Ibn Ishaq says, So and so narrated to me&#8217;, then he did hear that narration.&#8217; Otherwise, if he says, So and so said&#8217;, then the narration is rejected.&#8217; Meaning, Ibn Ishaq would not lie; if he states that he heard the Hadith from his teacher, then his assertion is accepted.<\/span><span style=\"font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;margin-left:72pt;\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;\">&#8211; [Shaykh Jalal Abu Al Rub,\u00a0<em>The Prophet of Mercy<\/em>, Chapter 2, page 10]<\/span><span style=\"font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;margin-left:72pt;\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;\">&#8220;Imam Malik\u00a0<span style=\"color:red;text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>was not the only contemporary of Ibn Ishaq&#8217;s to have problems with him<\/strong><\/span>.

Agniveer wittingly has given just a sentence so as to indicate that Muslims tortured their slaves by putting rocks on their chest where as the source from Agniveer took this also distorts the text by cutting it short and making it look like racist whereas , we can clearly read that the one who was tortured was a devout Muslim who was being tortured by the pagans of Makkah so that he may leave the truth and worship false gods.,in the hottest part of the day under the sun in a valley but putting a great rock his chest so that his back may burn with the heat of the sand.And when Ab\u016b Bakr saw this he exchanged Bil\u0101l with another slave and set Bil\u0101l free.In fact, Ab\u016b Bakr freed numerous slave and that too women , old and weak slave hence his father stated:<\/span><span style=\"font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;margin-left:72pt;\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;\">Ab\u016b Qu\u1e25\u0101fa said to his son Ab\u016b Bakr, <strong>&#8216;My son, I see that you are freeing weak slaves.

Agniveer, very deceptively has tried to malign Isl\u0101m, why does not Agniveer relate those very few authentic narrations found in Ibn Ish\u0101q&#8217;a book, for instance this is found is various other authentic book as well as in the book of Ibn Ish\u0101q.The people of Makkah among whom the Isl\u0101mic faith emerged with the advent of prophet Mu\u1e25ammad, rejected it vehemently for many years as they were opposed to its egalitarian teaching.
