Reader comment on item: How the West Could Lose
in response to reader comment: Face to face

Submitted by Plato (India), Feb 5, 2007 at 12:39

"It is easy to scare off Muslims online; people may find it difficult of answer tough questions that you have relating to a faith as they themselves may have little or limited knowledge about"

Ah but it could be because of the verse that exhorts Muslims not to engage in dispute about religion ( I can't remember the verse number)

"I applaud and thank you for giving me this opportunity of learning these new ideas."

You are a good listener and that encourages me. Thank you too.

Now coming more to the rebuttal; it is our belief that the Quran is for the guidance for the whole of mankind, where it addresses mankind and human beings it does so. With the terms "Yaa Ayyu Hannas" and "Yaa Ayyul Hallazeena Aamanu" meaning "Oh Mankind (or ‘men' in your case, leaving aside whether that translate to Arabs or not) and "Oh you who believe." respectively. Rulings and legislations have been enforced on all inhabitants during the time of the Prophet (p), which included non-Arabs as well. Although we find the Quran making references to the Arabic language and the people of that language, it does not mean per se that the entire revelation and book in therefore aimed at them. If the intension was so, we would find more citations to this idea.

Let me refer you to dhimmi no more's excellent post of Feb 2, 2007 on the meaning of "Yaa Ayyu Hannas" . I know no Arabic. I will go with dhimmi as all who have disputed with him on Arabic have fallen by the wayside. You are only making assertions without any solid evidence from the Koran. I quoted verses that clearly indicate it is meant only for the Arabs and not any Arabs, but Arabs who live around the Mother of Cities, Mecca. You are twisting and turning to fit the verses to meet your expectations. Time and again dhimmi no more and I have shown that just does not wash. Before we continue this argument I suggest you refute dhimmi no more.

"That is well and good, but it is also rational and logical that those people who do not understand Arabic can learn Arabic for their understanding. It is also rational and logical that those who wish not to learn Arabic can understand from those who do possess the language..."

That is strange logic and rationality indeed. Allah sends a Prophet to a people who constitute a very small minority of mankind. He wants the rest of mankind to learn Arabic to understand Him or be at the mercy of some scholar's translation. That Allah's logic and rationality are pretty poor is demonstrated by the fact that those who understand the Koran can be easily counted using the Roman numerals. Looking at the differences in translations and tafsirs how many real Muslims exist. Allah alone knows? Very few for sure. Also think about it, most Muslims practice its rituals of five daily prayers in a language they do not know.

"An so as the Quran is complex yet easy at the same time, the average Arab cannot always benefit fully without taking on Fus'ha (classical) Arabic language studies..."

That was news to me. Allah has condemned even his chosen people to not being able to fully understand his teachings unless they take lessons in classical Arabic. You are contradicting the Koran Mo.The Koran always said it is easy to understand, never has it talked of it being complex, only about once it says there are some verses which are allegorical.

"So when you say that the Arabs can only understand the Quran, that in itself is a false statement, because the Quran is accessible to those who know the Language, and if a non-Arab by race is fluent in Arabic, surely the Quran is easily comprehended"

Let us use logic again. First you yourself said even the Arabs have to learn classical Arabic and that the Koran is also complex. Now how many tafsirs are in existence. How many translations are in existence and which are always disputed for some reason or other as not being the true meaning of the Koran. Why are they there if the Koran is easily comprehended. The very existence of numerous translations and so many tafsirs argues for the incomprehensibilty of the Koran to not only Arabic speakers but especially to non-Arabs. Simple human logic (not Allah's) will tell who is making the false statement.

"Though the above statement of yours is true to a certain extent that is only up to the individual, is they wish understand all." Equivocation instead of stating that most people do not understand.

"I do agree with your statement so a certain degree; for those Muslims who are not at all interested in gaining understanding, they merely do the bare minimum, as you say, rituals."

Some more equivocation. The vast majority of Muslims are struggling to make ends meet. What interest would you say they have to gain a good grasp of classical Arabic. Use logic my dear Mo.

"That comment of yours in very ignorant indeed, non -Arabic languages are not relegated into a second class status in Islam, your statement has made it so in your mind, in the eyes of a few perhaps, people are not somehow in despair for not being Arabic, they are not discontent with their culture because of not being Arabic, that is very funny."

Really funny that. My statement says: "Language, one of the most important markers of one's cultural identity, has been relegated to second class status because of Islam. And regretfully you seem happy and proud about it. Your religion makes you think that the Arabs are a cut above the rest because Allah has chosen them above other nations, and so you slavishly imitate their manners and customs even though the religion does not require you to, hoping perhaps then Allah will treat you on a par with them.

Like Indians of old trying to be more English than the English." I am not saying that Islam demands everyone should become classical Arabic scholars. What that above passage is saying is because of your belief in Islam and because Islam has made the Arabs into a chosen people, sadly those who believe in this religion go about imitating as much of the Arab culture as they possibly can. Just trying to curry favour with your Lord by trying to be as Arab as possible.? Read one of your old posts where you wax eloquently about the Arabic which language of which your knowledge is limited as you yourself admitted. What is amusing AND SAD are all those make-believe Arabs in Asia and Africa and elsewhere salaaming, inshallahing and trying out some broken Arabic amongst each other hoping for Allah's blessings. And sadder still taking pride in Arab achievments and heroes and looking down on their own forefathers achievements as that of jahilya.

"I will remind you that Muslims do not follow the Arabic customs, in fact that would truly be foolish, but we follow the Sunnah, keeping a beard is a Sunnah so we do it, eating while sitting is Sunnah so we do it."

Let us look at this Sunnah thing. Do only the personal habits of the Prophet qualify as sunnah? He had this consistent habit of assassinating his critics be they doddering old men or a lactating woman. Muslims follow it with zeal even now. Farag Foda, Theo van Gogh to name just two. Mo, tell me do you approve of this personal habit of the Prophet. You did approve of his mutilating the robbers who killed his camel herder.

"You see, your comments are too rigid, and give an impression that there is no hope. Scholars exist in both the Arab world and the Non-Arab world. If it was the case that the Arabs were somehow more versed in the religion of Islam and did not require a scholar, then maybe you had a real case."

Not much hope as long as you insist that it is the unchangeable, uncreated (created to some) word of Allah. And your insistence on scholars to interpret the verses directly contradicts the Koran's claim to be an easy book to understand. Now you tell me that even the poor Arabs have to depend on scholars of classical Arabic to comprehend the Koran.

"No, what you have been showing were verses that give references to the Arabic language. There is no verse in the Quran that says "This religion is for the Arabs" and equivocal statement of such or the like."

I really like that. Allah should have said "This religion is for Arabs and non-Arabs" and there would not have been all this verbiage we are indulging in. Can you tell me why the Koran instead of addressing believers, people, man etc does not have an unambiguous statement like the one I wrote.

What was your aim in quoting all those verses? Allah is God and so is for all mankind as the verses indicate. Unless you say that the God of the Arabs is different from the God of the Christians and other. None of those verses say the religion of Islam is for all mankind. How did you reach that conclusion from those verses? You are stretching it to breaking point.
