>>9901881>Because the Bible has been tampered with.What's ironic is that Muslims believe the Bible is corrupted so if Muhammed is the true Prophet why didn't he say so himself? Not once did Muhammed ever say the Bible was corrupted. Neither does the Quran. In fact, for a corrupted book the Quran LOVES to endorse the Bible.
The first Muslim Scholar to charge that the Bible was corrupted was in 1064 by Ibn-Khazem.
Many great MUSLIM teachers DO NOT believe the Bible has been corrupted and ACCEPT the authenticity of our PRESENT New Testament texts.
>Ali al-Tabari (died 855) accepted the Gospel texts >Amr al-Ghakhiz (869) >BUKHARI (810-870) (he gathered some of the earliest tradition of Islam quoted the Quran itself to support his belief in the text of the Bible Sura 3:72,78) >Al-Mas'udi (956) >Abu Ali Husain Bin Sina (1037) >AL-GHAZZALI (1111) (probably the greatest Muslim scholar he lived after Ibn- Khazem but did not accept his teachings) >Ibn-Khaldun (1406) (he lived after Ibn-Khazem but did not accept his teachings but rather believed the earlier Islamic teachers.) >Sir Sayyid Ahmad Khan, founder of the Aligarh College "In the opinion of us Mohammedans it is not proved that corruption (tahrif-i-lafzi)...was practiced." >Fakhruddin Razi, on the authority of Ibn Abbas, a nephew of Muhammed, "The Jews and early Christians were suspected of altering the text of the Taurat and Injil; but in the opinion of eminent doctors and theologians it was not practicable thus to corrupt the text, because those Scriptures were generally known and widely circulated, having been handed down from generation to generation."Why did it take Islam so many centuries to finally figure out the Bible is corrupted? Why didn't Muhammed himself say so and where? Why didn't Muhammed "fix" the Bible where it was corrupted? Why didn't the Quran say where the Bible was corrupted and "correct" it? Why do other Muslim scholars disagree with Bible corruption interpretation?
