Who wrote the Quran?
Paragraph "A" - Introduction:
Paragraph "B" - Who wrote the Quran?
----------------------------------------------
Note: This note is not related to Ejabat's site in Paragraph "B" of this page..
[Why some Muslims wanted to burn the the fragments or the manuscripts of the Quran?"
The answer is found in the original statement: "Mohammed's wife, Hudhaifa had noticed the different recitations of the Quran" but kept what Mohammed wrote or his friends wrote and kept in his possession before he died.
Why the date 633 AD of the Quran's assembly as the book of Allah and Hafsah's death in 667 AD and the number 666 that is mentioned in the bible Book of Revelation chapter 13 related? The bible indicates: the 666 is a total number of a person's name, not a date, Revelation 13:18.
We shouldn't forget that the Islamic invasions by Prophet Mohammed and his followers on non-Muslims nations was around 666, which is possible that something did happen on this date. This number may also has essential meaning; therefore, it is mentioned as a prophecy in the bible. For Example: in 637 AD Muslims did invade Iran = Persia. Muslims reached Europe in their invasions on non-Muslims nations = Jihad war.
Muslims were and still aiming to convert Jews and Christians or death.
Allah says: [And the Jews say: Uzair is the son of allah; and the [nasara] = Christians say: The Messiah is the son of allah; these are the words of their mouths; they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before; may allah destroy them; how they are turned away!] sourat altawba 9:29 to 33
The Koran = (quran) commands Muslims to kill those that don't believe in Allah & Mohammed? Reference, Islamic Quran (sourat altawba 9:5); and to fight those that don't believe in Allah and Mohammed, reference Islamic Quran (sourat altawba 9:29); and to those that wage war against allah and his prophet to be murdered or crucified or to cut their hands and feet on opposite sides, reference Islamic Quran (sourat almaeda 5:33)
Why don't we consider that the date is 666 instead 667? Since many manuscripts were burnet and the Muslims were divided because of the Quran and some Muslims demanded to burn the Quran, I consider that it is very easy to change dates of any event. Especially; when there is a prophecy with evil code or a puzzle that is composed by alphabetic numbers that is mentioned in manuscripts that doesn't confirm with the Quran's theology. In the following text, the author of Ejabat's site claims that some of the original copies were burnt and some kept with Mohammed's wife Hafsah.
(Hafsah was one of Muhammad's wives. She maintained the original Qur'an until her death in 667 AD.
However, if Hafsah kept the original manuscripts of the Quran, it means Mohammed was writing his passages in a book before he died.
This theory contradicts what Muslim scholars had claimed that the Quran wasn't written until after Mohammed's death and the passages were memorized by Mohammed's followers.
As Muslims claimed: the original Qur’an was completed by 634 AD. In 633 CE, 700 Muslims died in military political conflicts in between Muslims because of the Quran's manuscripts. Some Muslims wanted to burn the Quran and other Muslims wanted to keep it. This incident confirms that something was wrong with the manuscripts of Quran, which obliged some Muslims to destroy these manuscripts.]

Paragraph "B" - Who wrote the Quran?
Lets read what Ejabat's site wrote about the authors of the Quran, and why some Muslims want
to burn the Quran after Mohammed's death.
Story Highlights:
Take note that we have no relation with the following site and text.
Ejabat's site wrote:
The "official" Qur’an version of today comes from Zaid ibn Thabit, who was the youngest writing member. Zaid, being very young, outlived the older people who had spent more time with Muhammad. However, in the end it was Zaid's version of the Qur'an that was selected by Uthman for the "official" Qur'an version.
Muslims who had been close to Muhammad became
righteously angry when Uthman insisted that only one version of the Qur’an
be used. Islamic sources show that the purity of the Qur’an from the
days of Muhammad appears to have been compromised. If no variants existed,
then no burning party would have been held.
Muslims believe that seven versions of the Qur'an exist but that only Uthman’s Qur’an is correct.
So Muslims disregard the "official" book burning party cited in Muslim source materials. However, it takes "blind faith" to believe and accept this viewpoint.

Is the Qur'an Pure?
Is the Qur’an is from the angel Gabriel:
Why did Muhammad's close companions write unique versions of the Qur'an?
Muslims believe that
seven versions of the Qur'an exist but that only Uthman’s Qur’an is correct.
Why were these unique
versions of the Qur'an later destroyed by fire?
When Muhammad died in 632 CE,
the Qur’an had not been recorded and collected into a book. Instead, Muslims
memorized large portions of the Qur'an. This was especially true people
who knew Muhammad in person. The Qur’an means to
recite. It is possible that some of the verses had been recorded on
bones, rocks, or hides before Muhammad died. Regardless, it didn’t take long
for the early Muslims to decide that they needed to have the Qur’an
collected into a book.
The original Qur’an was completed by 634 CE. It
is important to understand that a political process is what produced the
Qur’an. In 633 CE, a military battle caused
700 Muslims to be killed. A close friend of
Muhammad (named Salim) that could recite a
large portion of the Qur’an was killed. What would happen if all the close
followers of Muhammad were killed? Early Muslims wanted to maintain the
purity of the Qur’an as Muhammad had spoken it.
So the original Qur’an of 634 CE was created
during the political reign of Abu Bakr. This
original Qur’an came to be known as the Hafsah codex
(about 10 years later when Hafsah began to maintain it). However,
this most important original manuscript of the Qur’an
was destroyed by Muslim leaders in 667 CE.
(Hafsah was one of Muhammad's wives. She maintained the original Qur'an until her death in 667 CE.
Muslim leaders wanted to destroy the original Qur'an before Hafsah died. But she refused to hand over the codex for burning. She was successful until her death [Refer to Al-Masahif 24] It is most important to ask, "Why did Hafsah not wish to have this most important original manuscript of the Qur'an to be burnt?").
Based on Muslim sources alone, it appears that the
Hafsah codex was one of the last Qur’ans to be willingly
destroyed by Muslims. Since the original Qur’an
was not accepted, what happened to cause such a drastic change that required
the original Qur’an to be destroyed? Why wasn’t the Hafsah
codex maintained since it was created (in 634 CE)
within two years after Muhammad died (in 632 CE)?
To begin, an excellent procedure was in place during the collection of the original Qur’an. Abu Bakr ordered that the Qur’an could only include words that were vouched for by the testimony of two men. The earliest version of the Qur'an would have been most fresh in the minds of Muhammad's followers in 634 CE. Is it any wonder why Hafsah refused to release the original manuscript?
The history of how the Qur’an came to be recorded comes from reliable Muslim
source materials. These are called the Hadith. Problems for the Qur’an began
to occur during the reign of the 3rd political leader
of Islam, whose name is Uthman (644 TO 656 CE).
It appears that as the Islamic faith spread with military conquest across a
large area, the soldiers were reading different versions of the Qur’an.
These men wondered, "Is the Qur’an truly as pure as those close to Muhammad believed and taught?"
The 2nd most trusted Hadith is called Sahih Bukhari.
In Volume 6, Book 61, Number 510, the story about Muslim soldiers arguing about different versions of the Qur’an reads as follows: [Search on the referenced site to find the number "510" if you want to verify the written literature].
"Hudhaifa was afraid of the different
recitations of the Qur'an, so he asked 'Uthman,
"O chief of the Believers! Save this nation before they differ about the
Qur’an as Jews and the Christians did before."
In response to the request, the Caliph Uthman
sent a message to Hafsah since she had the most
important original manuscript sheets collected about
634 CE. We find written:
"Send us the manuscripts of the Qur'an so that we may compile the Qur'anic
materials in perfect copies and return the manuscripts to you." Hafsah sent
copies to Uthman.
Caliph Uthman had men who knew the Qur’an to
assemble it again. We find written:
Uthman then ordered four men to rewrite the manuscripts in perfect copies.
After this had been done, the Hafsah codex was returned to her. "Uthman
returned the original manuscripts to Hafsah."
Having obtained this new version, Uthman ordered all other Qur’ans to be
destroyed by fire. We find written:
Uthman sent to every Muslim province one copy of what they had copied, and
ordered that all the other Qur'anic materials, whether written in
fragmentary manuscripts or whole copies, be burnt.
This means that drastic changes occurred. After all,
"Why were the other copies and fragments
ordered to be burnt?" The answer is found in the original statement: "Hudhaifa
was afraid of the different recitations of the Qur'an"
Hudhaifa did not want different versions of the
Qur'an. To Hudhaifa, unity of the Qur'an meant unity of all Muslims. If
Muslims troops were not united, Islam would crumble.
Since all other copies of the Qur’an were ordered to
be burned, what was wrong with them? Is the
Qur’an pure as believed by modern day Muslims? Since the decision to burn
all other Qur’ans was politically motivated, the Qur’an of today reflects
the political whims of early Muslim political leaders, not the prophet
Muhammad. Questions like this will never be answered.
But it is certain that the Qur’an of today is not the original Qur’an recorded only 2 years after Muhammad died.
It is certain that the Hafsah codex would have been
the most accurate and original Qur’an of all time. But
Muslim political leaders made sure that it was destroyed. So what actually
happened in the early years of Islam?
Is the Qur’an from a false Gabriel:
Evidence of Multiple Qur'anic Versions
Muslim source materials report that at least four different versions of the
Qur’an existed before the political order was given to have them burned.
(Refer to "Al-Tamhid 2, 247).
The four versions were written by people who knew Muhammad in person. Each
person created their unique version of the Qur’an. Based on Muslims sources,
the differences were serious enough to cause Muslims to be divided. The
Islamic source "K. al Masahif" reports differences so serious as to cause
one Muslim group to call another group heretics:
During the reign of `Uthman, teachers were teaching this or that reading to
their students. When the students met and disagreed about the reading, they
reported the differences to their teachings. They would defend their
readings, condemning the others as heretical.'[Abu Bakr `Abdullah b. abi
Da'ud, "K. al Masahif]
So a political decision was made to have only one Qur’an. This did not go
over well with the original people who created their unique version of the
Qur’an. Who were these chosen people?
Muslim source materials reveal some of these select people who are known to
have created their unique version of the Qur'an. (Sahih Bukhari, Volume 5,
Book 58, Number 150). [Search on the referenced site to find the number
"150" if you want to verify the written literature].
I heard the Prophet saying, "Learn the recitation of Qur'an from four
persons: (1)Abdullah Ibn Mas'ud, (2)Salim (who was killed in the 633 CE
battle), the freed slave of Abu Hudhaifa, (3)Ubayy B. Ka'ab and (4)Muadh bin
Jabal."
So a few select people close to Muhammad thought they knew the Qur’an and
collected their personal version. These versions of the Qur’an became widely
distributed and used. This is why Muslim soldiers were arguing and calling
one another heretics.
After the "official" Qur’an was released and the order was given to burn all
other versions, some very bad feelings came out. The following information
from Muslim sources is probably the most important information you can learn
about people who actually knew Muhammad in person. Let’s begin with Mas’ud,
who was asked to burn his personal version of the Qur’an.
"How can you order me to recite the reading of Zaid, when I recited from the
very mouth of the Prophet some seventy Surahs?" "Am I," asks Abdullah, "to
abandon what I acquired from the very lips of the Prophet?" (Masahif" by Ibn
abi Dawood, 824-897 AD, pp. 12, 14).
Would Mas’ud accept the Qur’an of today as being pure since he refused to
destroy his unique version? Since Mas’ud did not want to have his unique
version of the Qur’an destroyed, it is doubtful that Mas’ud would honestly
answer that the Qur’an is pure. It is important to ask, "Why did Mas’ud
refuse to give in and destroy his version of the Qur’an?"
Mas'ud was a close companion and personal servant of Muhammad. The prophet
Muhammad taught the Qur'an to Mas’ud in person. Due to his close
relationship with Muhammad, Mas'ud would have had confidence that he was
qualified to create his unique version of the Qur'an.
Mas'ud, moved to Kufa, Iraq where he completed his unique version of the
Qur’an (commonly called the Kufan Codex). The unique Qur’an created by
Mas’ud was completed years after the most important original manuscript (634
CE) that Hafsah kept until she died in 667 CE. In addition, the Qur'an
version created by Mas'ud did not have chapters 1, 113, and 114 that are in
the "official" Qur'an of today. Is the Qur’an truly pure as believed by
Muslims today?
Another unique Qur’an was created by Ubayy B. Ka'ab.
He was a close companion of Muhammad and served as a secretary to Muhammad.
Ubayy could recite much of the Qur’an, which he had learned from the
prophet Muhammad. Scholars have found that
Ubayy's version differed from the "official" Qur'an with two additional
chapters (entitled: Surat Al-Khal and
Surat Al-Afd). Since Ubayy was taught the Qur'an by the prophet
Muhammad, why doesn't the "official" Qur'an contain the two additional
chapters?
Ubayy died during the reign of Umar,
which was before the "official" Qur'an was created by Uthman. Therefore,
Ubayy did not have to witness that his version of the Qur'an was burned by
Uthman's order. Since Ubayy created a unique
version of the Qur'an and had learned from the mouth of the prophet
Muhammad, would he have agreed with Mas’ud by refusing to
give in and destroy his version of the Qur’an?"
Due to Uthman’s decision to create an "official" version of the Qur'an,
Ubayy's version of the Qur’an was destroyed.
It is important to ask, "Is the Qur'an pure?"
Now consider the original Qur’an called the Hafsah
Codex. It was destroyed by Muslims leaders immediately after Hafsah
died. It is most important to ask, "Why did Hafsah not wish to have this
most important original manuscript of the Qur'an to be burnt?"
The "official" Qur’an version of today comes
from Zaid ibn Thabit, who was the youngest writing member. Zaid,
being very young, outlived the older people who had spent more time with
Muhammad. However, in the end it was Zaid's version of the Qur'an that was
selected by Uthman for the "official" Qur'an version.
Muslims who had been close to Muhammad became
righteously angry when Uthman insisted that only one version of the Qur’an
be used. Islamic sources show that the purity of the Qur’an from the
days of Muhammad appears to have been compromised. If no variants existed,
then no burning party would have been held.
Muslims believe that seven versions of the Qur'an exist but that only Uthman’s Qur’an is correct.
So Muslims disregard the "official" book burning party cited in Muslim source materials. However, it takes "blind faith" to believe and accept this viewpoint.
If Muhammad could consistently foretell the future, then the Qur’an could be
regarded as coming from God.
However, this has not been demonstrated.
The politically motivated book burning party
of early Muslim leaders confirms the Qur’an is from a false Gabriel
