To Syed

You say "we all Muslims" (sic) stand behind the Saudi royal family and its despicable list of prohibitions which include the Bible. The same Bible against which, Muhammad, the prophet of Islam, was told to test the truthfullness of his own message.

"If thou wert in doubt as to what we have revealed unto thee, then ask those who have been reading the Book from before thee, the truth hath indeed come to thee from thy Lord, so be in no wise of those in doubt."

Sura 10:94

The same Bible of which the Qur'an says,

"Let the people of the Gospel judge by what Allah hath revealed therein. If any do fail to judge by (the light of) what Allah hath revealed, they are (no better than) those who rebel."

Surah 5:47

"If only they had stood fast by the Law, the Gospel, and all the revelation that was sent to them from their Lord, they would have enjoyed happiness from every side……."

Surah 5:66

"Say: ‘O People of the Book! ye have no ground to stand upon unless ye stand fast by the Law, the Gospel, and all the revelation that has come to you from your Lord……..'"

Surah 5:68

The same Bible the Qur'an approvingly refers many, many times, to giving it such noble titles as:-

"the book of Allah" " the word of Allah"

"a light and guidance to man" "a decision for all matters"

"a guidance and a mercy" "the lucid book"

"the illumination (al-furqan)"

"the gospel with its guidance and light confirming the preceding law"

"a guidance and warning to those who fear Allah"

You contradict your prophet and his Qur'an by most offensively referring to it as "dirt," please explain why Syed.

With kind regards and best wishes
