>Oh what happened to our dear Abdul and our dear Hamzah and our dear Matthew? Were they deported from the UAE and are back to India? And did they fly via al-Buraq back to India? Mashallah!
I don't know about Michael but Hamzah and Abdul Hadi were just me, so its fine.
>Mr. ignorant, the earliest extant Quranic fragments had NO short vowels, shadda, hamza, nuqat, and many missing the letter alif. How come you did not know that? So Mr. genius, as I told you before the word النساء in today's Arabic would have a rasm as: النسا (compare with Garshouni ܐܠܢܣܐ) without the dot in the letter ن and then the Persian mufasereen had to fix all that mess et voila we have the EDITED as النِّسَآءِ and more disasters for you? There is a missing Alif next to the letter Alif so it should be: النِّسَااءِ and this is why the sneaky Mufasereen edited the letter /ا/ and made it /آ/. You are lost right? It is because you are ignorant.
I mean, common sense? Where is it? ofc they would add these homophones so that the people who know not Arabic could also read it fluently and easily. Many Arabs still read the Qur'an in a version with no homophones as they know what to expect, but the people who don't know Arabic learn these very homophones and thus get the pronunciation out correctly.
>Do you see why I keep saying to you: Stop embarrassing yourself and stick to Urdu.
Oh and talking about Urdu, many poets of Urdu, i.e, Allama Iqbal, Dagh Dehlvi etc. also wrote all their works without homophones but their works were later enhanced with homophones so that the read can have a better understand of it.
>Hey do not forget to say Hi to your ex-boy friend Nicola Tesla and our dear Uri al-tablighee.
Nikola*
And btw who's Uri? I don't remember mentioning the name.
>Now get lost
I think you're going on to break the record of 'how much mockery can be fit in one message?'
And accept the Qur'anic challenge if you really criticize the Arabic so much.
