Examples of Misinterpretation of the Qur'an


           responsible for following its verses. These qualities make it unique
           and universal. Since the other books have been changed by people
           throughout history and have lost their originality, they no longer
           possess these qualities. Some of the basic principles of Christianity
           that are mentioned in the Bible, which is claimed to be a source of
           the Qur'an have been openly rejected by the Qur'an. The most
           important one is that which assumes Prophet Jesus to be the son of
           God. This belief has been appraised in the Qur'an as a lie against God.

              They say, 'The All-Merciful has a son.' They have
              devised a monstrous thing. The heavens are all but
              rent apart and the earth split open and the mountains
              brought crashing down, at their ascription of a son to
              the All-Merciful! It is not fitting for the All-Merciful to
              have a son. There is no one in the heavens and earth
              who will not come to the All-Merciful as a slave…
              (Surah Maryam: 88-93)
              Another such claim the Qur'an entirely opposes is the
           crucifixion of the Prophet Jesus by the Jews. In the Qur'an, it is
           stated that the Jews did not kill Jesus, but that is how it was made
           to look, and it is added that God raised him up to Himself.
              In conclusion, if we make a general comparison we will see that
           the important truth the Qur'an guides human beings toward is the
           Oneness of God, that there is no other deity but He and His purity
           from any defects or negative attributes. These important facts are
           repeated in each Qur'anic anecdote, information and verse. In the
           same manner, each Qur'anic anecdote carries guidance, warning
           and information.

              All of these prove that the Qur'an is a divine revelation.
