Bigotry:
The Dark Danger

It is impossible for some verses in a book which is "preserved"
and whose commandments apply to all Muslims to be regarded as
valid, while others are not. The perfection in the entirety of the
Qur'an, its mathematical and scientific miracles, the fact that it is a
guide and the verses regarding how it has been preserved all rebut
these claims made by fanatics and some opponents of Islam.

Those who reject the Remembrance [the Qur'an] when it comes
to them - truly it is a Mighty Book; falsehood cannot reach it from
before it or behind it - it is a revelation from One Who is All-
Wise, Praiseworthy. (Qur'an, 41:41-42)
Its collection and recitation are Our affair. So when We recite it,
follow its recitation. Then its explanation is Our concern.
(Qur'an, 75:17-19)
As these verses explicitly state, the Qur'an is a peerless book,
and falsehood cannot catch up with it from before or behind. This
book is under the protection of our Lord. It is therefore a blatant

slander to suggest that some commandments have replaced those in
the Qur'an.

We need to state here that the supposed scholars who slander
Islam and the Qur'an in this way are in intense disagreement among
themselves as to the number of verses that are supposedly abrogat-
ed. Each one in his own way replaces a verse he regards as abrogated
with another commandment, and these rules therefore lead to new

and different faiths; some supposed scholars have even gone so far
as to maintain that hadiths can replace verses. These people com-
pletely ignore God's verse that reads "… We have not omitted any-
thing from the Book…" (Qur'an, 6:38). They reject verses of the

Qur'an and replace them with hadiths, some of which are total fabri-
cations. This logical collapse perpetrated in the name of Islam also
represents the basis for the actions of radicals. We shall be looking at
this in detail in due course.
