The Quran utilizes "the double negative" to emphasize that the prophet
had NO duty EXCEPT delivering the Quran.
"You have NO duty EXCEPT DELIVERING the message."
42:48
"Your ONLY duty is delivering, we will call them to
account." 13:40
"The messenger has NO function EXCEPT delivery of the
message." 5:99
THE QURAN IS THE
MESSAGE
"We have sent down to you a scripture containing YOUR
MESSAGE. Do you not understand?" 21:10
MARMADUKE PICKTHALL'S TRANSLATION :
"Thine is ONLY to convey (the message)." 42:48
"..thine is BUT conveyance (of the message)." 13:40
"The duty of the messenger is ONLY to convey (the
message)" 5:99
"Now we have revealed unto you a Scripture wherein
is YOUR REMINDER." 21:10
********
"And when you preach your Lord, using the Quran
ALONE, they run away in aversion." 17:46
********
"The messenger said (on the Day of Judgment), "My
Lord, my people have DESERTED this Quran." [25:30]
PROPHET MUHAMMAD FORBIDDEN FROM ISSUING
RELIGIOUS
INSTRUCTION
OTHER THAN THE
QURAN
"This is the utterance of an honorable messenger.
Not the utterance of a poet; rarely do you believe. Nor the utterance of a
soothsayer; rarely do you take heed. A revelation from the Lord of the
universe. Had he uttered any other teachings. We would have punished him. We
would have stopped the revelations to him."
[69:40-46]
PROPHET MUHAMMAD FORBIDDEN FROM
EXPLAINING THE
QURAN
"Do not move your tongue to hasten it. It
is we who will collect it into Quran. Once we recite it, you shall
follow such a Quran. Then it is WE who will explain it."
75:16-19
GOD - TEACHER OF THE
QURAN
"The Most Gracious. Teacher of the
Quran." 55:1-2
QURAN - FULLY DETAILED AND ONLY
SOURCE OF RELIGIOUS
LAW
"Shall I seek other than GOD as a source of law,
when He has revealed to you this book fully detailed? Those who received the
scripture recognize that it has been revealed from your Lord, truthfully. You
shall not harbor any doubt. The word of your Lord is complete, in truth and
justice. Nothing shall abrogate His words. He is the Hearer, the Omniscient." 6:114-115
"This Quran could not possibly be authored by other
than GOD. It confirms all previous messages, and provides a fully detailed
scripture. It is infallible, for it comes from the Lord of the universe." 10:37
OBEYING THE PROPHET IS UPHOLDING
THE QURAN ONLY
Prophet Muhammad obviously was a believer, and as a believer he followed
the above verses from the Quran, which came from his own mouth. Now that
Muhammad is dead, obeying him is upholding what he upheld. To suggest that
Muhammad violated the above verses, by issuing religious laws or following
other sources besides the Quran (like the insistence on hadith/sunnah), is
to say that Muhammad was a disbeliever.
DEAD, NOT ALIVE
God in His infinite Wisdom, has clarified the meaning of DEAD, a meaning
the idolators cannot comprehend. Muhammad is dead. How can you obey a dead
man?
"They are DEAD, N O T A L I V E, and they have no idea how
or when they will be resurrected." 16:21
