Our dear Muslims whose Amazigh ancestors were brutalized by the imperialist Arabs that invaded al-Maghtreb you do not seem to be aware of the so called literary topos of 4, 40, 400, 4000 in the late antique world of the Middle East and the fact that in literary sources any of these numbers would really mean perfection, completion, culmination and also many and a long time

And yes this topos that was made up by mere human beings made it to the Qur'an and if you turn to Surat Yunus 16 where it says

فقد لبثت فيكم عمرا من قبله

Or I lived among you for a period of umr or عمر was read by your Ulama as 40 years oh you do not believe me? here is what al-Tabari says about the meaning of the word umr

لبث اربعين سنة

Or he lived (among you) for 40 years

And based on this topos the ulama declared that Muhammad must have started to receive his mab3ath when he was 40 years old! Did you learn something new today our dear Muslim?

Do you know what this means our dear Muslim it means that the Ulama tell us that your Allah is using the human made topos of 4, 40, 400, 4000 which means that if this bogus al-Lawh al-Mahfuz is uncreated then the people of the Middle East that created this topos must pre-date al-Lawh al-Mahfuz! Do you see why we kuffar say that Islam is ridiculous?

Now back to Rab3a al-3Adawiyya does this make sense to you our dear Muslims whose ancestors the Amazigh were brutalized by the Muslim invaders of al-Maghreb and do you know why number 4 really means? Oh Rab3a al-3Adawiyya? I doubt very much that she existed
