Leaders of Islam Have Disastrous Trust in Their Broken BasketThere is a famous proverb that has provided wisdom for thousands from many nations, "Don't put all your eggs in one basket." I have a friend who would not have lost about one million dollars on the U.S. stock market if he had not placed so much faith in one medical stock that ended up becoming worthless. But he unwisely put all his money into that one basket. Because of a new policy decision by the U.S. Government, a decision he could not control, all of the value was taken out of his one stock. He had seriously injured both himself and others by ignoring the wisdom of not putting all of his eggs in one basket. Much worse than my friend losing a great amount of money by putting his whole investment in one place, is what supposedly intelligent Muslim leaders now unwisely do. Their one unwise decision criminally results in millions of Muslims to suffer great practical, great spiritual and great eternal loss. With their eyes wide open, these leaders choose to put their own spiritual investment and millions of other Muslims' spiritual investments all into their very wrong understanding of two of the Holy Qur'an's most profound verses. They hold nothing in reserve that they do not put into their one visibly damaged basket. If they would give a close look, they can see large multiple holes in their trusted basket. Yet, into this one damaged basket they unwisely place the future of millions of Muslims. In our analogy of the broken basket with holes, the broken basket never represents verses from the Holy Qur'an. Rather, the badly damaged basket only represents leaders' profoundly unwise choices to understand the verses in a misleading way. They wrongly understand the two profound verses in the Quran's An-Nisa to declare facts that on closer examination of the verses, these verses actually do not declare. But as I discuss the many large holes that current leaders wrongly put into the meaning of these two verses, never do I suggest that the actual words in the verses are incorrect. The only mistake is in the rigid way that Muslim leaders demand that the meaning of the verses now be understood. It is only their understanding of the verses that is totally and hurtfully incorrect. Hole in the Understanding OneWhen the verse states "they killed him not nor crucified him", these leaders fail to realize that it is totally legitimate to understand that they (the Jews) did not kill or crucify him as it definitely appeared to them that they had done. Because permanence is precisely what the two precise words "kill" and "crucify" imply. But the Jews, though they had intended to kill him permanently, certainly had not killed or crucified the Messiah permanently. But they very definitely had only killed him temporarily which became a clear fact after ALLAH raised him to new life so that he was no longer dead. Hole in Understanding TwoIf there is still a bit of doubt whether it is legitimate to state that the verse 4:157 refers to the fact that it appeared to the Jews that they had killed him permanently when they had only killed him temporarily, the next verse clarifies the fact that he was definitely only killed temporarily. Because 4:158 states that ALLAH raised him up to Himself. And of course the Messiah could not have been raised up to be alive with ALLAH if he had been killed permanently. Thus his death had appeared to them (shubbiiha lahum) to have been a permanent death. But instead his death had definitely only been a temporary death because ALLAH, after the Messiah's temporary death, used His Eternal Wisdom and His Eternal Might to raise him up alive. (4:158) Hole in Understanding ThreeA strange myth has been cleverly invented by Muslims to falsely proclaim that the Messiah's appearance and identity were secretly put by ALLAH on another unnamed person so that the other person was supposedly executed in place of the Messiah. Before the execution the Messiah is said to have been secretly aided by the Eternal ALLAH to escape. However, this ridiculous myth explodes into multiple fragments when each of the words in the next concise, wonderful verse, 4:158, are closely examined because ALLAH's Eternal Wisdom and Eternal Might would never have been required to do an amateur identity switch. Hole in Understanding FourThink about it. There is absolutely no way that the Exalted Majestic ALLAH would have allowed Himself to participate in an amateur deception that involved an illegal identity switch in order to assist His Messiah to secretly escape an execution. Hole in Understanding FiveFor Muslim leaders or Muslim followers to believe for one second that ALLAH's Eternal Wisdom and Eternal Might were actually required to pull off a CIA type identity switch in order to transport the living Messiah from the official execution location to the safety of ALLAH's presence, is an absurd insult to both ALLAH and to the Holy Qur'an. That's like saying the U.N President was spitting watermelon seeds while officially addressing the Security Council. That would be a shame for both ALLAH and the U.N. President to engage in such behavior. Hole in Understanding SixMuslim leaders swallow each of these previous five holes in one basket in order to commit the crime of virtually kidnapping and imprisoning millions of Muslims so that the leaders sadistically prevent these trusting Muslims from receiving the benefits that come from embracing ALLAH's Risen Messiah. Yet, ALLAH has intended His Risen Messiah to be extensively involved in their lives and for them not to be imprisoned by a lie and therefore be totally prevented from ever benefitting from ALLAH's Risen Messiah. For Muslim leaders to deliberately prevent multitudes of sincere Muslims from enjoying the positive benefits that come from a meaningful relationship with ALLAHs own Risen Messiah is an extremely serious crime. This crime causes so many serious geopolitical problems for Muslims that it is comparable in its negative impact on sincere Muslims to the deplorable Zionist crime against Palestinians. Because this serious misunderstanding by Muslim leaders is so vitally important, we will again review the tragedy that this invented myth has caused in slightly different words, and from a slightly different perspective. Again, what is the figurative basket into which the leaders of one billion-five-hundred Muslins are putting one hundred percent (100%) of the hopes of all the great multitude of ALLAH's precious Muslims? The basket is the rigid out of date demand that each of these millions of Muslims be convinced that AN Nisa 4:157 and 158 must be understood so that the One Broken Basket or out of date demand has these four hurtful characteristics. Broken Basket Characteristic OneThat ALLAH's only Messiah did not suffer a brutal, illegal murder at the hands of jealous Israeli leaders with the complicity of the mighty Roman Empire, which left him temporarily dead. Broken Basket Characteristic TwoALLAH did not use His Amazing Eternal Wisdom and His Amazing Eternal Might spoken of in AN Nisa 4:158 to bring new life to the lifeless body of His own ruthlessly murdered Messiah. Broken Basket Characteristic ThreeInstead of ALLAH using His Eternal Wisdom and Eternal Might for such an exalted purpose as bringing new life to his brutally murdered Messiah, as unbelievable as it may sound, he chose instead, according to the man invented myth, to use His Eternal Wisdom and Eternal Might to carry out a low level CIA type identity switch so that his executioners and all the close up witnesses were successfully deceived. Each close up witness supposedly was each convinced to believe that the person being executed actually was the Messiah. Therefore, the deceased body that two of his friends carefully prepared for burial was the Messiah. But it supposedly was not him but only a look-alike. The supposed look-alike supposedly endured the long hours of a brutal crucifiction without ever offering one word of complaint to the many, many people within hearing distance that they were executing the wrong person and that he was definitely not the Messiah Jesus. And the supposed long, drawn-out execution of the look-alike Messiah allegedly occurred during the same time the Majestic ALLAH used His Eternal Wisdom and Eternal Might to virtually sneak the still alive Messiah up to Himself. So ALLAH supposedly exiled the formerly, always hard working, Messiah to spend close to 2,000 years doing not much of anything and not helping the Palestinians or anyone else while resting in heaven. In contrast, if ALLAH's Messiah were now to be recognized by Muslim leaders as an eager to help Risen Messiah who had defeated death rather than fleeing from death, he would currently be aiding millions of Muslims such as the suffering Gazans, and other Palestinians. Muslim women who are often treated as second class Muslim citizens would also be receiving his assistance, etc., etc., etc. But these wrong understanders of AnNisa 4:158 have naively convinced themselves and others that the Risen Messiah's forced inactivity in heaven is much more important than his useful activitiy among Muslims here on earth who will definitely be aided by his help. May ALLAH forgive these incompetent, confused, leaders for choosing to criminally waste ALLAH's own Risen Messiah. back to "Late 2007 - 2010" page __________________________________________________________ _________________________________________ __________________________ _____________ |
