FIRST OFF: Quran was the 2nd Book that was sent DIRECTLY to the 2nd Messenger Prophet – the Quranic Seal of the Prophets, just like the 1st Messenger-Prophet Moses but the only difference is that Moses was not able to see ALLAH directly but the Quranic Seal of the Prophets did! For this, please read Quran Chapter 53:01-20.

Further, ALLAH says in the Quran thru HIS Prophet

And not is for a MALE HUMAN BEING that ALLAH should speak to him except by revelation or from behind a partition or that He sends a messenger to reveal, by His permission, what He wills. Indeed, He is Most High and Wise.

From the above verse, ALLAH spoke to a male Human Being in a form of

A. Direct Revelation

B. Thru a Veil

C. Thru a Messenger - in this case it the Spiri Angel Messengers JIbril or Mikaal or both!

In the case of A, this Quran, Chapter 53 confirms that the revelation was directly reveal to the Quranic Seal of the Prophets!

In the case of B, the Prophets Joseph, Moses and his mother was spoken to "indirectly" in a veil without any 3rd party!

In the case of C, the Prophets Abraham, Lut, Esa and his mother - Mary, were spoken thru a 3rd Party - the Spirit Angel Messengers!


The use of the singular 1st Person

1 - God speaks in the singular 1st Person (I) to assert HIS absolute Oneness. This is in the Present Mode with respect to time when HE spoke directly to the Messenger-Prophet Musa and the Quranic Seal of the Prophets Ministries respectively! The following are examples:

Inform My servants that I am the Ghafoor (Forgiver), the Raheem (Merciful). 15:49

I am God, there is no god but Me, therefore you shall worship Me and observe the Salat to commemorate Me. 20:14

This is Me, God, Lord of the worlds. 28:30

Such verses relate directly to the Oneness of God, as a result we will not find any verses which speak of the Oneness of God or of worshipping God alone that employ the plural pronoun.


2 - We also note that verses which speak of God's attributes and God's beautiful names are always phrased in the singular 3rd Person. In this case these verses were spoken by the Quranic Seal of the Prophets which he was conveying to the other Messengers of his ministry!

God bears witness that there is no god but HE. 3:18

God will suffice you against them; HE is the Samee (Hearer), the Aleem (Knowledgeable). 2:137

HE is Qahir (Supreme) over His servants. HE is the Hakeem (Wise), the Khabeer (All-Aware). 6:18

To God belongs the kingship of the heavens and the earth, and what is in them; HE is Qadeer (Capable) of all things. 5:120

This is a proclamation for the people, and with which they are warned, and for them to know that HE is but Wahid (One) god, and for those who possess intelligence to take heed. 14:52

3. The following Quranic words speak of God's greatness and how it can never be comprehended by the human being.

They can never fathom the greatness of God. 39: 67


4 - The plural is also used in the Quran NOT because of Royal sense, but since the message was conveyed to his Majesty the Seal of the Prophets directly and he in turn conveyed the message to his disciples – the Messengers of his Ministry and further these verses are all in the PAST & PRESENT with respect to the Ministry of the Quranic Seal of the Prophets!

We have sent messengers before you to their people. They came to them with clear proofs. Subsequently, We inflicted retribution on those who committed crimes and it was incumbent on Us to grant victory to the believers. 30:47

In 30:47 we read of three acts executed by God:

a- Messengers sent by God to guide the people from before
b- The punishment God inflicts on the criminals of those yesteryear
c- The victory granted by God to the believers of yesteryear

The three acts mentioned are not acts which take place during the Ministry of the Seal of the Prophets but in the Past, but they are all acts that are executed by a Supreme God to His servants. The plural here denotes the message of conveyance by the Quranic Seal of the Prophets! This implies to your question where the plural were used.

When Our command was issued, We saved Shu`aib and those who believed with him by mercy from Us. 11:94

A command issued by God in the PAST, thus the word 'We' and 'Us" is once again appropriate to denote the message of conveyance! The use of the plural is employed in the same manner in 11:40, 11:58,11:66 and those verse you mentioned!

In the Present - with respect to the Quranic Seal of the Prophets Ministry, read Quran 28:44 to 46

5. In 16:40 we witness the use of the plural to denote God's supreme majestic power and authority whenever God wishes for anything to come into existence: In this case it applies to the two Messenger Prophets – Moses and the Quranic Seal of the Prophets as they were acting on behalf of God HIMSELF!

Our word to anything when We will it, is to say to it, "Be" and it is. 16:40

Hope this help.

Thank you brother for sharing your thought... I don't blame for what you perceive within quran... but let me go off topic and pose you certain questions to why you claim that the Prophet Messenger of Quran saw (physically) Allah directly and in addition to that claiming the quran was directly revealed book and not through other mediums? For you 53:1-20 seems enough to conclude your view...
But look below verses...
42:51 "And it is not for any human being that Allah should speak to him except by revelation or from behind a partition or that He sends a messenger to reveal, BY HIS PERMISSION, what He wills. Indeed, He is Most High and Wise."  ~~~~ you already used this verse to support your claim but, Prophet Messenger of Quran is also a HUMAN like us... So to see God and TALK is impossible according the very glaring manifest verse...
2:97-98  "Say, "Whoever is an enemy to Gabriel - it is [none but] he who has brought the Qur'an down upon your heart, [O Muhammad], by permission of Allah , confirming that which was before it and as guidance and good tidings for the believers. Whoever is an enemy to Allah and HIS ANGELS AND HIS MESSENGERS AND GABRIEL AND MICHAEL - then indeed, Allah is an enemy to the disbelievers." ~~~~ These two glaring verse proves that the quran came through to us with the will of God using Gibreel mainly(or initially) and looking at the order of enemy list above in which Malaika + Messengers + Gibreel + Michael are indicated to ponder that Quran or any other God's book would have been revealed through these sources...
16:102 "Say, [O Muhammad], "The Pure Spirit has brought it down from your Lord in truth to make firm those who believe and as guidance and good tidings to the Muslims."
26:192-195 "And indeed, the Qur'an is the revelation of the Lord of the worlds. The Trustworthy Spirit has brought it down Upon your heart, [O Muhammad] - that you may be of the warners"
~~~~ These crystal clear verses say entirely contrary to your claim.. Aren't they? I am sure you are aware of it already... but let's see what is your response to substantiate still what you claim..

Don't ever with mere assumption consider that God directly spoke to Musa's mother without third party behind a veil...... That only an inspiration.. How God inspire to human is mystery ... No one can say that.. Only those who are inspired knows it... Such inspirations are not only for human, probably to all his creatures at the inception... Coz He wants to guide their lives...

10:94 "So if you are in doubt, [O Muhammad], about that which We have revealed to you, then ask those who have been reading the Scripture before you. The truth has certainly come to you from your Lord, so never be among the doubters."
The above verse 10:94 will become piece of joke if you claim that Prophet received the revelation of quran directly and by seeing the God... What kind of prophet he is to doubt after seeing his Lord manifestly and knowing that it was revealed to him by God...  for what reason prophet has to approach those who read the scriptures before him while he has already seen his Creator...That's super bizarre claim...

21:25 "And We sent never a Messenger before you except that We revealed(WAHI) to him, saying, 'There is no god but I, so serve Me."
21:7 "And We sent not before you, [O Muhammad], except men to whom We revealed [WAHI], so ask the people of the message if you do not know."
In the above verses 21:25 & 21:7 God confirms that all messengers before Mohamed was revealed... word used is WAHI that same word you took to substantiate your claim that Messenger of Quran spoke to God directly without screen... so God can inspire in any mode... How do you take WAHI as direct speech of God with HIS presence and if So, All messengers before Mohamed has spoken to God directly since you used WAHI to be direct Speech of God that also seeing God..
23:27 "So We inspired(WAHI) to him (Prophet Noah), "Construct the ship under Our observation, and Our inspiration(WAHI), and when Our command comes and the oven overflows, put into the ship
21:73 "And We made them leaders guiding by Our command. And We inspired (WAHI) to THEM the doing of good deeds, establishment of prayer, and giving of zakah; and they were worshippers of US."
20:48 "Indeed, it has been revealed(WAHI) to US(Musa + Harun) that the punishment will be upon whoever denies and turns away."
If God denied to show Himself to Musa while talking to him, but the Earth couldn't  bear it... Mountains powdered... How then God descended to Earth and came close to Mohamed .. is that what you claim by 53:1-20... that's simply offline... God claimed in those verses that Prophet saw one of His signs and not God Himself..
You confused yourself.... Three Modes
A – Wahi.... Check all WAHI verses for better picture..
B – Behind a Screen
C – Sending an Angel Messenger...
Just carefully read quran and you will find the answer... B & C is very clear and totally different to 'A'..
B = God's real voice is audible to the listener but not possible to see The One who communicates with the listener ...
C = Message is from God and God RELAYS His message thru His Angel Messenger to be delivered to Human who was chosen as human Messenger to deliver to People... ...For this type of talk only God has used an extra phrase 'BY HIS PERMISSION'... So other two mediums are direct from God...
A = inspiration / revelation (direct but not audible)... this is also a way of talking to human... Since already the category 'B' God's audible voice is highlighted, then this 'A' or rather WAHI also cannot be in that group 'B'.. otherwise God doesn't need to segregate to THREE... ... see the verse 99:05 "for that her Lord has inspired HER (Earth)" .. Here God doesn't come to earth and show Himself and talk to the EARTH... but direct inspiration.. Earth knows that the Creator of IT inspired to do what it Does.. 19:11 "So he came out to his people from the prayer chamber and signaled (WAHI) to them to exalt [Allah] in the morning and afternoon." ....... Very clear that God used WAHI here while Zackariya did not opted to speak to his people but still talked to them without speaking audible voice...that's kind of real inspiration/revelation... but how God does, we have no idea.. look at this verse 6:112 "And thus We have made for every prophet an enemy - devils from mankind and jinn, inspiring (WAHI) to one another decorative speech in delusion. But if your Lord had willed, they would not have done it, so leave them and that which they invent."


God has THREE ways of COMMUNICATING, it is not at all necessary to show HIMSELF.. that's beyond truth as per Quran.. No evidence... all are mediums of mere communication and not visual... Quran or any of his previous scriptures would have been revealed in any of the three mediums (by one medium or two or three that God knows)... We can't confirm that by only ONE medium it was revealed....But if you take the verses of SEND DOWN then the weight is for option  'C'... but I am not convinced ...remember I don't say you are completely wrong in your study...further studies may make things manifest to us....
Let us die with guidance

Because the entities (yes it's plural) whose saying were recorded has less ego (I) and more empathy and 'oneness' with others (we/us).

The basic concept is explained in this video:
Law Of One: The Seven Densities of Consciousness
https://youtu.be/seaJcY0kXjk?t=607

"We" is hard to be recognized without the existence of it's opposite "Them".
The conception of "we" is still relevant as the "we" still have it's own opposite polarity which labeled as "them".
"them" are those who choose to progress towards the path of strengthening their ego, the path that requires excessive amount of narcism, hatred, pride (glorifying of one or ourselves) and greed.

Thank you brother for sharing your thought... I don't blame for what you perceive within quran... but let me go off topic and pose you certain questions to why you claim that the Prophet Messenger of Quran saw (physically) Allah directly and in addition to that claiming the quran was directly revealed book and not through other mediums? For you 53:1-20 seems enough to conclude your view...
But look below verses...

Blame? Off topic? In order to explain your question which, I find quite diverse, I need to go back to many verses chapters in the Quran and not just cherry pick!

Did you read Quran Chapter 53? I wonder how you perceive the information given in that chapter? Do not take lightly the information as those sectarians! The Quran is a Book of Explanation no Assumption!
Here is Surah An-Najm verses 01 to 12: The context of the verses in this Chapter renders it even clearer.

In the Name of ALLAH Most Gracious

وَالنَّجْمِ إِذَا هَوَى
{1} And the star when it sets!

مَا ضَلَّ صَاحِبُكُمْ وَمَا غَوَى
{2} Your companion has not strayed; he is not deluded;

The word "Your companion" is referring to the Prophet. The audience of the Arabic version Quran were the Arabs. So why was the Prophet referred to as a companion considering the fact that in the Quran mention the stories of Noah, Lut, Hud, Saleh and Shuaib, where these Messengers were referred to as Brothers to their people. Quran 14:04
And We did not send message of a Messenger except in the language of his people to state clearly for them.......
The above verse referring to the language and, in this case, the Arabic version Quran was sent to someone who spoke Arabic and his audience were the Arabs. If this is so, why in verse 2 of Chapter 53 mention the word "Companion" and not "Brother"? I will come to this later.

وَمَا يَنْطِقُ عَنِ الْهَوَى
{3} he does not speak from his own desire.

Again, this is not referring to his human words as a man - what he said to his wives, children, and friends, but to the Qur'an. The "speech" of Prophet as the Narrator of the Qur'an. We learn this from the verse:

"This is the words/speech ( qawl / قَوْل ) of a honorable messenger." (Quran 69:40)
(Very similar to Prophet Moses, where both were aka honorable Messenger and Messenger Prophet)

إِنْ هُوَ إِلا وَحْيٌ يُوحَى
{4} It is nothing less than an inspiration that is inspired to him

The Quran 69:43 - "sent down from the Lord of the two Realms." When you read this, you have to read it in context! This verse is referring to the Prophet who received the Quran directly from the AlMighty Lord! If you study 02:97 – the Quran was sent down to someone (mention in 2nd Person) thru Jibril by permission of ALLAH! IN 26:192-193 – Quran sent down from God thru Jibril - Trustworthy Spirit to someone (mention in the 2nd Person)! Whenever the Quran mention 2nd Person with regards to the Quran, it is referring to someone mention in 09-40 and 16:103. That someone was a Rasul!

عَلَّمَهُ شَدِيدُ الْقُوَى
{5} It was taught to him by one with Mighty Powers,
who can that be? Is it God Himself or the Angel Messenger?

ذُو مِرَّةٍ فَاسْتَوَى
{6} great strength, who stood
Again, the question is as above, who is this entity?

وَهُوَ بِالأُفُقِ الأَعْلَى
{7} on the highest horizon

ثُمَّ دَنَا فَتَدَلَّى
{8} and then approached––coming down

فَكَانَ قَابَ قَوْسَيْنِ أَوْ أَدْنَى
{9} until he was two bow-lengths away or even closer

فَأَوْحَى إِلَى عَبْدِهِ مَا أَوْحَى
{10} and revealed to HIS servant what HE revealed.

The verse above is in the 3rd Person – HIS SERVANT! Whose servant? Jibril as those sectarians concluded. If this is the case, the Prophet had 2 Masters – God and HIS Angel Messenger and that goes for us too! So, where it the logic?


مَا كَذَبَ الْفُؤَادُ مَا رَأَى
{11} [The Prophet's] own heart did not distort what he saw.

The Prophet's heart did not lie of what he saw! It is a grave accusation when someone accuse the Prophet of being a liar! The root word Ra Aliff Ya, means to see, to behold, to look, to notice, to regards, to consider; If you refer and compare to what Prophet Yusuf saw in his vision, the word use is Rukya – an idea or mental image of something. So, if the Prophet saw a vision, the word Rukya is use not Ro Aye!

أَفَتُمَارُونَهُ عَلَى مَا يَرَى
{12} Are you going to dispute with him what he saw?

Are you Mr Khan, having doubt / dispute about what the Prophet saw? Off course, you are having doubt just like those sectarians! Do not compare the Prophet with Prophet Moses, both have their own standards which the AlMighty God sets albeit both Prophets were of the same ranking – (they were both Messenger-Prophet and Honorable Messenger)! It is not appropriate for anyone to decide or think about the Prophets!

2:97-98  "Say, "Whoever is an enemy to Gabriel - it is [none but] he who has brought the Qur'an down upon your heart, [O Muhammad], by permission of Allah , confirming that which was before it and as guidance and good tidings for the believers. Whoever is an enemy to Allah and HIS ANGELS AND HIS MESSENGERS AND GABRIEL AND MICHAEL - then indeed, Allah is an enemy to the disbelievers." ~~~~ These two glaring verse proves that the quran came through to us with the will of God using Gibreel mainly(or initially) and looking at the order of enemy list above in which Malaika + Messengers + Gibreel + Michael are indicated to ponder that Quran or any other God's book would have been revealed through these sources...

16:102 "Say, [O Muhammad], "The Pure Spirit has brought it down from your Lord in truth to make firm those who believe and as guidance and good tidings to the Muslims."

26:192-195 "And indeed, the Qur'an is the revelation of the Lord of the worlds. The Trustworthy Spirit has brought it down Upon your heart, [O Muhammad] - that you may be of the warners"
~~~~ These crystal clear verses say entirely contrary to your claim.. Aren't they? I am sure you are aware of it already... but let's see what is your response to substantiate still what you claim..

From the verses you have shown, both Jibreel and Mikaal are the ONLY 2 Angel-Messengers who were given the permission to convey the revelation to those Prophets/Chosen one!

In 02:97 – Jibreel aka Trustworthy Spirit (26:193) was given the permission to sent down/downloaded the Quran in a "SOFTWARE FORMAT" directly into the heart of the receipient of this Quran. Nowhere in the Quran mention Jibreel sent down the Quran in a physical Book Format and taught the recipient of the Quran!

In 16:101-102 – The abrogated verses - meaning verses already existed in an existing Book, abrogated and sent down by the Holy Spirit! Trustworthy Spirit and Holy Spirit – 2 different entities! Since Jibril aka Trustworthy Spirit, that means, Mikaal is the Holy Spirit! Simple Maths – 1 + 1 = 2! So from the context of the said verses, Mikaal brought down a Book with abrogated verses in a HARWARE FORMAT! This ABORAGTED VERSES IN HARWARE FORMAT WAS THE BOOK OF MOSES which were with the Jews, contemporaries of the Ministry of the Quranic Seal of the Prophets and the Messenger who received this Quran! Quran 32:23

And certainly, We gave Moses the Book (Furqan); SO DO NOT BE IN DOUBT OF RECEIVING IT: We made it a guidance for the Children of Israel.

Base on what I have already explained, it was the Prophet who conveyed the above verse (and the whole Quran) to his disciple (mentioned in 16:103). Notice that the 1st Person Pural "We" in verse 32:23, although, the Prophet was not born during the Ministry of Moses, but since, he received the Message directly from God, and as such, he conveyed the message in the Plural We, to denote that he was not speaking on his own but rather he was speaking on behalf of his BOSS – THE ALMIGHTY GOD! This also occur in the present with regards to the Prophet's Ministry!

I believe you are the one who has been assuming all the while! The Quran is a BOOK OF EXPLANATION NOT A BOOK OF ASSUMPTION! From what you wrote, you assumed the Quran is a Book of Assumption. Then what is the point of God's explanation on 42:51? The whole verse is redundant and that makes the whole Quran a joke!

Quote from: jkhan on November 04, 2019, 01:19:37 AM
10:94 "So if you are in doubt, [O Muhammad], about that which We have revealed to you, then ask those who have been reading the Scripture before you. The truth has certainly come to you from your Lord, so never be among the doubters."

It is already a piece of joke with your understanding! I had already explained, there are 2 individuals mentioned in the Quran – 09:40, cross reference with 09:26 and 16:103 – the teacher and the student! The Prophet received the Quran directly from God and it was he who taught his disciple / Messenger assigned to their people!

10:94 – simply says that the Prophet told his disciple/Messenger assigned to Messenger's people - the Arabs, if he is in doubt, ask the People of the Book who were his contemporaries.

Can you see the logic?

Praise be to God I am not confuse, it is you who is. Erase the knowledge of sectarians from your head. I agree with you on B & C in which I have already explained earlier in my post! If what you said on Category A is correct that means Category A is redundant. There is no reason to put up Category A. B & C is enough!

Revelation Category A – WAHI
means divine or supernatural disclosure to humans of something relating to human existence or the world.
And it is not for any human being that ALLAH should SPEAK to him except by revelation (WAHI) or from behind a partition or that He sends a messenger to reveal, by His permission, what He wills. Indeed, He is Most High and Wise.
If it is what you said not audible, that means the word SPEAK should not be there! The root word for SPEAK in Arabic – Kaf Lam Mim meaning – speak to, talk to or with someone, to utter, express, to say,.

God spoke to the Prophet directly in a form of revelation and it was audible. However, the nuance of the speech is beyond our knowledge! Only the Prophet knew!

Category A can also be supported by the Biblical verse Deuteronomy 18:18.

18 I will raise up to them a Prophet of their brethren, like thee; and I will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them as I shall command him.

The above verse is one of those verses in the Book of Moses that is being protected by God Almighty!
ALLAH says to Moses that HE will raise a Prophet from among their brethrens – the majority that is the Ishmaelite 11 Tribal Nations who were Brethrens to the 1 and only Elite Prophetic descendents of Prophet Isaac! They were the Leaders as mentioned in Quran

21:73 "And We made them leaders guiding by Our command. And We inspired (WAHI) to THEM the doing of good deeds, establishment of prayer, and giving of zakah; and they were worshippers of US."

From the Elite descendents of Prophet Isaac came the Quranic Seal of the Prophets and ALLAH put words in the Prophet's mouth! This was HIS promise which already been fulfilled!

Revelation Category B
the word HIJAB, root word Ha Jim Ba – meaning
1. a thing that veils, conceals, hide, cover or protect because it prevents seeing or beholding.
2. a Thing or Body between two things or bodies or realms

So base on what you have written and that is God's real voice is audible to the listener but not possible to see The One who communicates with the listener. In this case, Prophet Moses and his mother who received the WAHI and it falls in this category. Prophet Moses saw a light and spoke to God and in a different realm in which case, God told Moses that he was on holy ground! God also spoke to Moses mother and plausible at a different realm! This also includes the Earth or whoever God inspires including Prophet Nuh and the other Prophets and Messengers who received the WAHI in this category!

Revelation Category C
God spoke to a person thru his Angel Messengers. In this case, Prophet Zakariya and Maryam mother of Esa falls in this category. Both were told not to speak after receiving the inspiration! Prophet Abraham - (NOT YUSUF – my mistake) and Prophet Lut, falls in this category, However, no information that they cannot speak! The recipient of this Quran – the Messenger in which Jibril downloaded Quran in a software format into his heart and also the abrogated Book of Moses in which Mikaal sent it down to him in a hardware format, no information that he cannot speak!

Conclusion
Whether you are convince or not believe or not, its not up to me to judge! The Prophet received the Message directly from God, and as such, he conveyed the message in the Plural We/Us, to denote that he was not speaking on his own but rather he was speaking on behalf of his BOSS – THE ALMIGHTY GOD!

Q:02:32 - They said, "Exalted are YOU; we have no knowledge except what YOU have taught us. Indeed, it is YOU who is the Knowing, the Wise."

jkhan

2:75 "Do you covet [the hope, O believers], that they would believe for you while a party of them used to HEAR the WORDS (K L M) of Allah and then distort the Torah after they had understood it while they were knowing?"

dear brother Husbulla...

K L M doesn't need to be audible sound... It is a communication... Role of any communication is to pass the message what one intend.... God communicates with people... Look above verse... They hear the KLM of Allah.. Did they hear the sound of Allah through the words, words are from Allah... ... But we can't hear the sound of God... But we heard what God communicated through someone else's sound.. 
As you claim KLM must be audible SPEACH as per grammar.. .. No way...
Even zakaria talked to his peaople ...in fact what zakaria wanted to say was passed through signals... People got the message... That's type of KLM...
Even category 'C' when angel messengers speak on behalf of God we don't hear the voice of God but angels... But God communicated KLM.. Message passed..God spoke.
If you insist KLM is direct SPEACH then that's beyond probability....

Further... I am not disputing with what prophet saw... He's not alive to dispute with him... You only dispute as if Prophet told you what he saw.  We only have quran... KLM of God and not KLM of prophet... 
But you are disputing with God what HE has written in Quran...
What prophet saw is confirmed by God by below verse .. .

53:18 "He certainly saw from the greatest signs of his Lord."

What prophet saw isn't the God... But one of God's signs... .. Unfortunately God's sign cannot become God Himself.. But you claim neglecting the glaring verse Prophet saw God.. That's real sectarian's  claim ....
You better use logic

Where did i dispute please show me.

Sectarian believe is what you believe! they do not believe the Quran but man made dogma!

Surely the Prophet is not alive but his words is. His words is the words of God HIMSELF, in which you deliberately ignore - 53:12!


Quran 53:12 - So will you dispute with him over what he saw? - You have outright dispute and ignore this verse

Quran 53:13 - And certainly he saw HIM in another descent - 2nd time the Prophet saw HIM (GOD)!

Quran 69:40 "This is the speech ( qawl / قَوْل ) of a Honorable Messenger."

Quran 69:43 - "Sent down from the Lord of the two Realms."


The Greatest signs of his Lord that the Prophet saw was the LORD HIMSELF, NOTHING IS AS GREAT AS THE LORD HIMSELF!

It is not about logic, it is about believe!

12:106 - And most of them believe not in ALLAH except while they associate others with Him

Where did i dispute please show me.

Let me show you since you ask with please... . Coz you claim that prophet saw God  physically for which there is no evidence within Quran... You twist the verses to substantiate your claim while your weaknesses are exposed within Quran while doing it... Prophet did see someone that God explains to confirm it... Since prophet has told what he saw to his people for which they argued... But God confirms what he saw was true..  Prophet and his people knew what actually prophet told them... There is no proof within Quran that prophet saw was God.... 53:18 is more than enough verdict... But you blinded in clear Arabic... Hopefully it is your language..

Sectarian believe is what you believe! they do not believe the Quran but man made dogma!

I don't need your certificate for that.. .. God knows what I believe and what my belief is... He will judge on the day of ressurection... You can be witness... Just have a look my profile picture.. That's me..so verify on that day..
Further...  I only brought quran to claim whatever I claimed... You have no right to say what you say. .had you said I have got the verses wrong then that is a different story...  Claiming secretarian is just your whim... You are simply exposed..


Surely the Prophet is not alive but his words is. His words is the words of God HIMSELF, in which you deliberately ignore - 53:12!

Who taught you that words of prophet are words of God... That's typical secretarianism...same as they claim prophet whent on a night journey and saw God..  You look identical to it by claiming whst You claim...
Words of Messenger is words of God... That's fine... They, the people of Prophet even disputed with him coz they knew that what he saw was his words not God's... Had it been from messenger as Quran probably they would not have disputed. .bur God confirmed through messenger not as prophet what he saw....


Quran 53:12 - So will you dispute with him over what he saw? - You have outright dispute and ignore this verse

I'm not part of it... I am still alive and those who disputed most probably passed away...
I don't ignore one verse and accept another... That's not me... I know the end result for those who do so..

Quran 53:13 - And certainly he saw HIM in another descent - 2nd time the Prophet saw HIM (GOD)!

By making  HIM in block letters it won't become God... That's your mere fantasy thought...

Quran 69:40 "This is the speech ( qawl / قَوْل ) of a Honorable Messenger."

Yes... Messenger honorable... Any doubt?

Quran 69:43 - "Sent down from the Lord of the two Realms."

Of course...

The Greatest signs of his Lord that the Prophet saw was the LORD HIMSELF, NOTHING IS AS GREAT AS THE LORD HIMSELF!

There you dispute like a nonsensical person while having knowledge... How would you reject the clear manifest Arabic in this  verse.... How could you claim by this verse that it is Allah he saw... That's super prejudiced and ignoring God's verse wittingly. .. If this verse gives meaning as such then quran needs to be rewritten... Don't make quran look fool....
53:18 "He certainly saw of the greatest signs of his Lord."
If the prophet in case saw God then this verse need to be reconstructed. .
"He certainly saw the greatest " or simply "He saw his Lord"
No way this verse can include SIGNS in plural . HIS LORD.... FROM./OF THE GREATEST ..
Thus it clarifies what he saw is other than his Lord...

It is not about logic, it is about believe!

Belief without logic is blindness...

12:106 - And most of them believe not in ALLAH except while they associate others with Him....

Don't be one of those... I  will take care of myself...ensure that you are not in that lot...

You deliberately ignore verses from the Quran 53:10 to 13. You cherry pick one verse just to substantiate your agenda. That shows clearly you have no knowledge of the Quran. I found many mistake in your understanding of the Quran!

Who taught me? In case you have not read or ignorant of what i wrote and quoted from the Quran - 69:40 - 43

indeed, the Qur'an is the word/saying of a Noble Messenger.

And it is not the word of a poet; LITTLE DO YOU BELIEVE.

Nor the word of a soothsayer; LITTLE DO YOU REMEMBER.

sent down from the Lord of the 2 Realms


But alas, what are these verses to you? I am sure it meant nothing to you! Right?

with your knowledge you have already make a fool out of the Quran! There are many signs of ALLAH, Seeing ALLAH in HIS physical form is  the greatest! This show clearly you read but do not understand the Quran. Further you have no knowledge of Classical Arabic. The groupings, context and some of the words used are vastly different. There are some minor differences in grammar and punctuation of words between  Quranic and modern standard versions of Arabic. These examples already show how weak your understanding within the Quran!

See yourself in the mirror and reflex - you used logic but you do not believe! i am advising myself and at the same time you! You brought up this interesting thread but it becomes dull with your ignorant and arrogant approach.

Anyways, good luck and  :handshake:

Dear Husbulla...

To date what I perceive is within me... Unfortunately I don't see within my limited knowledge that prophet saw Allah... If one day if God let me know crystal clearly through any of His Quran verses that prophet saw Allah then I will let you know isha Allah publicly saying that I was wrong on that day and you are right... Till then let me study Quran for my salvation... Okay dude.. No grudges... Keep cool... Guidance cannot be of wrong choice of verses...
If I am wrong at least few members would prove within Quran..
I never underestimate your knowledge.... Only hearty wish is let God guide us with what is right... Let the wrong path fade off
