You quote from the
fabricated Hadith as evidence that the Hadith/oral traditions should be followed.
WHERE IN THE KORAN DOES IT TELL ANYONE TO READ THE HADITH? The answer:
NOWHERE.
So, in your mind God sent the Koran/Quran -- which He told us at least 10 times was to
CONFIRM THAT WHICH WAS SENT BEFORE IT -- so that someone who lived 250 years
AFTER Mohammad could spend 16 years making up whatever stories he (Sahih al Bukhari) wanted to,
falsely claiming them to be "the oral traditions handed down from Mohammad"?
Here is what Allah actually said about
HIS Koran, which was intended
NOT to start yet another
evil organized religion, but to be
A CONFIRMATION of what went before it, in the Old Covenant and New Covenant.
(
Sura 2:97-98,
3:1-3,
4:47,
5:51,
6:92-94,
6:154-157,
10:37,
12:111,
22:52,
35:31,
46:12,
61:6-7)
Sura 2:97-98
2:97. Say: "Whoever is an enemy to Gabriel - for he brings down the (revelation) to thy heart by God's Will,
A CONFIRMATION OF WHAT WENT BEFORE, and guidance and glad tidings for those who believe,-
2:98. Whoever is an enemy to God and His angels and Apostles, to Gabriel
and Michael (
Daniel 12:1;
Rev. 12:7),- Lo! God is an enemy to those who reject Faith."
Sura 3:1-3
3:1. A. L. M. (Almighty. Loving. Merciful.)
3:2. Allah (God). There is no God but He,- the Living, the Self-Existing (YHWH - "I AM"), Eternal.
3:3. It is He Who sent down to thee (step by step), in truth, the Koran,
CONFIRMING WHAT WENT BEFORE IT and He sent down The Law (of Moses) and The Gospel (of Jesus)
BEFORE THIS, as a guide to mankind, and He sent down The Criterion (of Judgment between right and wrong).
Sura 4:47. O ye People of The Book! Believe in what We have (now) revealed,
CONFIRMING WHAT WAS (ALREADY) WITH YOU, before We change the face and fame of some (of you) beyond all recognition, and turn them hindwards, or curse them as We cursed the Sabbath-breakers, for the decision of God
MUST be carried out.
Sura 5:51. To thee We sent the Scripture in truth,
CONFIRMING THE SCRIPTURE THAT CAME BEFORE IT, and guarding it in safety (
Sura 32:23): so judge between them by what "I AM" hath revealed, and follow not their vain desires (
Sura 9:107-111), diverging from the Truth that hath come to thee. To each among you have We prescribed The Law and The Open Way (
Matt. 7:13-14). If "I AM" had so willed, He would have made you a single people, but (His Plan is) to test you in what He hath given you: so strive as in a race in all virtues.
The goal of you all is to "I AM"; it is He that will show you the truth of the matters about which ye dispute;
Sura 6:92-94
6:92. And this (Koran) is a Book which We have sent down, bringing blessings,
AND CONFIRMING (THE REVELATIONS) WHICH CAME BEFORE IT: that thou mayest warn the Mother of Cities (Jerusalem -
Isaiah 1:1,
21;
Matt. 23:37) and all around her (just like almost all of the previous Prophets were also told to do). Those who believe in the Hereafter (also) believe this (Book), and they are constant in guarding their prayers.
6:93. Who can be more wicked than one who inventeth a lie against "I AM", or saith, "I have received inspiration," when he hath received none, or (again) who saith, "I can reveal the like of what "I AM" hath revealed"? If thou couldst but see how the wicked (do fare) in the flood of confusion at death! - The angels stretch forth their hands, (saying),"Yield up your souls/Beings: this day shall ye receive your reward,- a penalty of shame, for that ye used to tell lies against "I AM", and scornfully to reject of His Signs!
6:94. And behold! Ye come to us bare and alone as We created you for the first time: ye have left behind you all (the favours) which We bestowed on you: We see not with you
your intercessors whom ye thought to be partners in your affairs: so now all relations between you have been cut off, and your (pet) fancies have left you in the lurch!"
Sura 6:154-157
6:154. Moreover, We gave Moses The Book (The Torah),
COMPLETING (Our favour) to those who would do right, and explaining
ALL things
IN DETAIL,- and a
GUIDE and a
MERCY, that they might believe in the meeting with their Lord.
6:155. And this (Torah) is a Book which We have revealed as a
BLESSING:
so follow it and be righteous, that
YE may receive mercy (
Sura 32:23):
6:156. Lest
YE should say: "The Book (The Torah) was sent down to two Peoples before us, and for our part, we remained unacquainted with all that they learned by careful study:"
6:157. Or lest
YE should say: "If The Book (The Torah) had only been sent down to
US, we should have
FOLLOWED its guidance
BETTER than they (
Sura 32:23)." Now then hath come unto
YOU a clear (Sign) from your Lord,- and a
GUIDE and a
MERCY: t
hen who could do MORE WRONG than one who rejecteth "I AM"'s Signs (and The Torah - Bible), and turneth away therefrom? In good time shall We requite those who turn away from Our Signs, with a dreadful penalty, for their turning away.
Sura 10:37-38
10:37. This Koran is not such as can be produced by other than "I AM"; on the contrary
IT IS A CONFIRMATION OF (REVELATIONS) THAT WENT BEFORE IT, and a fuller explanation of The Book (Bible - on some issues) - wherein there is no doubt - from The Lord of The Worlds.
10:38. Or do they say, "He forged it"? Say: "Bring then
A SURA like unto it, and call (to your aid) anyone you can besides "I AM", if it be ye speak the truth!"
Sura 12:111. There is, in their stories, instruction for men endued with understanding. It is not a tale invented,
BUT A CONFIRMATION OF WHAT WENT BEFORE IT,- a detailed exposition of all things, and a Guide and a Mercy to any such as believe.
Sura 22:52. Never did We send an Apostle or a Prophet
before thee, but, when he framed a desire, Satan threw some (vanity) into his desire: but "I AM" will cancel anything (vain) that Satan throws in, and
"I AM" WILL CONFIRM (AND ESTABLISH) HIS SIGNS (
Sura 32:23): for "I AM" is full of Knowledge and Wisdom:
Sura 35:31. That which We have revealed to thee about The Book (Bible) is the Truth,-
CONFIRMING WHAT WAS (REVEALED) BEFORE: for "I AM" is assuredly - with respect to His Servants - well acquainted and Fully Observant.
Sura 46:12. And before this, was the Book of Moses (The Torah - The Law) as a guide and a mercy: and
THIS BOOK CONFIRMS (IT - THE TORAH) IN THE ARABIC TONGUE; to warn the unjust, and as Good News to those who do right.
Sura 61:6-7
61:6. And
REMEMBER, JESUS, the son of Mary, said: "O Children of Israel! I am the Apostle of "I AM" (sent) to you,
CONFIRMING The Law (which came) before me (the Torah), and giving Glad Tidings of a Messenger to come after me, whose name shall be the Comforter (
John 16:7-15)." But when he came to them with Clear Signs (
John 14:15-18), they said, "this is evident sorcery (
Sura 32:23)!"
61:7. Who doth greater wrong than one who invents falsehood against "I AM" (
Sura 6:154-157), even as he is being
invited to do His Will? And "I AM" guides
not those who do wrong (Satan does).
Sura 6:122. Can he who
WAS dead (Jesus), to whom We gave life (
John 11:25,
Acts 2:31-32,
3:15,
Gal. 1:1), and a Light (
Mal. 4:2,
Matt. 24:27,
John 8:3) with which he walks amongst men (Christ), be like him who is in the depths of darkness (Lucifer
2 Cor. 11:13-15), from which he can never come out?
Thus to those without Faith their own deeds* seem pleasing (
Deut. 12:8,
Sura 4:142)
.
*the rites and rituals of their organized religions
Sura 3:55-56
3:55. Behold! God said: "O Jesus! I will take thee and raise thee to Myself and clear thee (of the falsehoods) of those who blaspheme; I will make those who follow thee
SUPERIOR to those who reject faith, to The Day of Resurrection: then shall ye all return unto Me, and I will judge between you of the matters wherein ye dispute.
3:56. As to those who reject faith, I will punish them with terrible agony in this world and in the Hereafter, nor will they have anyone to help."
There are at least 30 references in the Koran instructing its readers that they
MUST read The Law and the Gospel of Jesus.

How obvious does it need to be that it's the Bible - the Old Covenant and the New Covenant - that
COMPLETE the Koran?
Sahih al Bukhari made up the self-contradictory Hadith to keep Muslims/Moslems
AWAY from the Bible, which the Saudi-trained imams teach has been "lost" or "corrupted" to ensure Muslims are without the
SOLE CRITERION that determines right from wrong: The Law, found
ONLY within the first five books of the Bible, namely
Genesis,
Exodus,
Leviticus,
Numbers and
Deuteronomy, and
THE Example of following The Law, found only in the Gospel of Jesus, recorded by
Matthew,
Mark,
Luke,
John and
Thomas.
And here is what Allah (the "I AM") said In The Law, about what all organized religions have done (including what al Bukhari did), in making up their own "oral traditions", e.g. the Talmud and Hadith,
which is a death penalty offense.
Deuteronomy 4:2
Ye shall not ADD unto the word which I command you,
neither shall ye diminish [ought] from it, that ye may keep the
Commandments of the "I AM" your God which I
COMMAND you.
Deuteronomy 12:32 What thing soever I command you, observe to do it:
thou shalt not add thereto,
nor diminish from it.
So please
THINK about Who/who exactly you should be following; should you be following Allah and what He has said in and through
HIS WORD (the Old Covenant, New Covenant and Koran), through His (Allah's) Messengers, or should you be following what the
LIAR (Lucifer/Satan/Iblis/the devil) has sent through his servants, e.g. al Bukhari.
Agreed. And they direct the readers of the Koran/Quran back to the Old Covenant and New Covenant which the Koran/Quran was sent to
CONFIRM.
No, they don't. Not when considering that the Koran was only sent to CONFIRM the Old Covenant and New Covenant that came before it. Please see those two verses you cited in context.
Sura 2:139-161
2:139. Say: "Will ye dispute with us about God, seeing that He is our Lord and your Lord; that we are responsible for our doings and ye for yours; and that we are sincere (in our trust) in Him?
2:140. Or do ye say that Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob and the [twelve] Tribes were Jews or Christians?" Say: "Do ye know better than God?" Ah! who is more unjust than those who conceal the testimony they have from God? But God is NOT unaware of what ye do!
2:141. That was a people that hath departed from The Way. They shall reap the fruit of what they did, and ye of what ye do! Of their merits there is no reference in your case.
2:142. The fools among the people will say: "What hath turned them from Abraham's Sacrifice at which they were used [to quibbling]?" Say: "To God belong both East and West: He guideth whom He will to The Way that is straight (and strait)."
2:143. Thus, have We made of you a people Justly Balanced, that ye might be witnesses over the nations, and the Messenger a witness over yourselves and We appointed the Sacrifice to which thou wast used, only to test those who followed the Messenger from those who would turn on their heels (from the Faith). Indeed it was (a change) momentous, except to those guided by God. And never would God make your faith of no effect. For God is to all people most surely full of kindness, Most Merciful.
2:144. We see the turning of thy face (for guidance) to the heavens: now shall We turn thee to a Sacrifice that shall please thee? Turn thy face in the direction of the Holy Place: Wherever ye are, turn your faces in that direction. The people of The Book (Bible) know well that that is the truth from their Lord (
1 kings 8:29-
30;
2 Chron 3:1). Nor is God unaware of what they do.
2:145. Even if thou wert to bring to the people of The Book all the Signs (together), they would not follow thy Sacrifice nor art thou going to follow their Sacrifice, nor indeed will they follow each other's Sacrifice. If thou, after the Knowledge hath reached thee, wast to follow their (vain) desires (organized religions),-then wast thou indeed (clearly) in the wrong.
2:146. The people of The Book know this as they know their own sons; but some of them conceal the truth which they themselves know.
2:147. The Truth is from thy Lord (not from satan); so be not at all in doubt.
2:148. To each is a goal to which God turns him; then strive together (as in a race)
towards all that is good. Wheresoever ye are, God will bring you together. For God hath power over all things.
2:149. From whencesoever thou startest forth, turn thy face in the direction of the Holy Place that is indeed the Truth from the Lord. And God is not unaware of what ye do.
2:150. So from whencesoever thou startest forth, turn thy face in the direction of the Holy Place (Jerusalem) and wheresoever ye are, turn your face thither: that there be no ground of dispute against you among the people, except those of them that are bent on wickedness; so fear them not, but fear Me; and t
hat I may complete My favours on you, and ye may (consent to) be guided.
2:151. A similar (favour have ye already received) in that We have sent among you a Messenger of your own, rehearsing to you Our Signs, and sanctifying you, and instructing you in Scripture and Wisdom, and in new Knowledge.
2:152.
Remember Me (God); then I will remember you. Be grateful to Me, and reject not Faith.
2:153. O ye who believe! seek help with patient Perseverance and Prayer: for God is with those who patiently persevere.
2:154. And say not of those who are slain in The Way of God: "They are dead." Nay, they are living, though ye perceive (it) not (re-incarnation).
2:155. Be sure We shall test you with something of fear and hunger, some loss in goods or lives or the fruits (of your toil), but [We] give glad tidings to those who patiently persevere,-
2:156. Who say, when afflicted with calamity: "To God we belong, and to Him is our return":-
2:157. They are those on whom (descend) blessings from God, and Mercy, and they are the ones that receive Guidance.
2:158.
Behold! Safa (being born again [as your spirit-Being] -
John 3:3-7)
and Marwa (the Water of Life -
John 4:10)
are among the Symbols of God. So for those who visit The House in the Season, it is no sin in them, if their mind should compass them round (understand) at other times. And if any one obeyeth his own impulse to good,- be sure that God is He Who recogniseth and knoweth.
2:159. Those who conceal the Clear (Signs) We have sent down, and the Guidance, after We have made it clear for the people in The Book,- on them shall be God's curse
(Deut. 28:15-68), and the curse of those entitled to curse,-
2:160. Except those who repent and make amends and openly declare (the Truth): to them I turn; for I am Oft-returning, Most Merciful.
2:161. Those who reject Faith, and die rejecting,- on them is God's curse, and the curse of angels, and of all mankind;
2:162. They will abide therein: their penalty will not be lightened, nor will respite be their (lot).
2:163. And
your God is One God.
There is no god but He, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
Sura 3:30-52
3:30. On the Day when every soul will be confronted with all the good it has done, and all the evil it has done, it will wish there were a great distance between it and its evil.
But God cautions you (to remember) Himself (
Mal. 4:4-6). And God is full of kindness to those that serve [only] Him."
3:31. Say: "If ye do love God, follow me: God will love you and forgive you your sins: for God is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful."
3:32. Say:
"Obey God and His Messenger": but if they turn back, God loveth not those who reject Faith.
3:33.
God did choose Adam and Noah, the family of Abraham, and the family of Amram above all people,-
3:34. Offspring, one of the other: and God heareth and knoweth all things.
3:35. Behold! A woman (Hannah - Anne who was a member of the British Royal Family) of Amram (who was a Levite) said: "O my Lord! I do dedicate unto Thee what is in my womb for Thy special service: so accept this of me: for Thou hearest and knowest all things."
3:36. When she was delivered, she said: "O my Lord! Behold! I am delivered of a female child!"- and God knew best what she brought forth- "And in no way is the male like the female.
I have named her Mary, and I commend her and her offspring to Thy protection from the Evil One, the Rejected."
3:37. Right graciously did her Lord accept her: He made her grow in purity and beauty: to the care of Zacharias was she assigned. Every time that he entered (her) chamber to see her, he found her supplied with sustenance. He said: "O Mary! Whence (comes) this to you?" She said: "From God: for God provides sustenance to whom He pleases without measure."
3:38. There did Zacharias pray to his Lord, saying: "O my Lord! Grant unto me from Thee a progeny that is pure: for Thou art He that heareth prayer!"
3:39. While he was standing in prayer in the chamber, the angels called unto him:
"(God) doth give thee glad tidings of John (the Baptist), witnessing the Truth of The Word from God, and (be besides) noble, chaste, and a Prophet,- of the (goodly) company of the righteous."
3:40. He said: "O my Lord! How shall I have a son, seeing I am very old, and my wife is barren?" "Thus," was the answer, "Doth God accomplish what He willeth."
3:41. He said: "O my Lord! Give me a Sign!" "Thy Sign," was the answer, "Shall be that thou shalt speak to no man for three days except with signals (
Luke 1:18-22). Then celebrate the praises of thy Lord again and again, and glorify Him in the evening and in the morning."
3:42. Behold! the angels said:
"O Mary! God hath chosen thee and purified thee- chosen thee above the women of all nations.
3:43. O Mary! worship Thy Lord devoutly: prostrate thyself, and bow down (in prayer) with those who bow down."
3:44. This is part of the tidings of the things unseen, which We reveal unto thee (O Messenger!) by inspiration: thou wast not with them when they cast lots with arrows, as to which of them should be charged with the care of Mary: nor wast thou with them when they disputed (the point).
3:45. Behold! the angels said:
"O Mary! God giveth thee glad tidings of The Word (John 1:1-5) from Him: he will be called Christ Jesus, the son of Mary, held in honour in this world and the Hereafter and of (the company of) those nearest to God.
3:46. He shall speak to the people in childhood (
Luke 2:40-47) and in maturity. And he shall be (of the company) of the righteous."
3:47. She said: "O my Lord! How shall I have a son when no man hath touched me?" He said: "Even so: God createth what He willeth: when He hath decreed a plan, He only saith to it, 'Be,' and it is!
3:48.
And God will teach him The Book (Old Covenant) and Wisdom, The Law (The Torah) and The Gospel,
3:49. And (appoint him) an Apostle to the Children of Israel, (with this message): "'I have come to you, with a Sign from your Lord, in that I make for you out of clay, as it were, the figure of a bird, and breathe into it, and it becomes a bird by God's leave: and I heal those born blind, and the lepers, and I enliven the dead, by God's leave and I declare to you what ye eat, and what ye store in your houses. Surely therein is a Sign for you if ye did believe;
3:50. (I have come to you), to affirm The Law which was before me. And to make lawful to you part of what was (before) forbidden to you; I have come to you with a Sign from your Lord. So fear God, and obey me.
3:51. It is God Who is my Lord and your Lord then worship Him. This is The Way (
John 14:6) that is Straight' (
Matt. 7:13-14)."
3:52. When Jesus found Unbelief on their part he said: "Who will be My helpers to (the work of) God." Said
the disciples: "We are God's helpers: we believe in God, and do thou bear witness that we are "True in Faith".
Mohammad (peace be upon him) was sent as a Messenger from God, just as all of the prophets before him. But His (God's) Messenger is clearly His Christ (Anointed One) as should be self-evident from the passages above taken in context, particularly the one from Sura 3.
You've cited part of a verse and left it out of context, and feel that is proof that the self-contradictory Hadith should have been written 250 years later which also contradicts the Koran/Quran? How ridiculous!
Please consider why Allah decided to mention Mohammad so infrequently in His Koran, but decided to mention Jesus -- directly or indirectly - at least 230 times. And even if we look at the references to Muhammad/Mohammad, we find instruction directing us back to the Bible which came before it,
CONFIRMING The Example we should all be following is the one set by Prince Michael/Christ -- the "Unlettered Prophet", while He was here in the body of Jesus (
John 14:6).
Sura 48:29. Muhammad is the Apostle of "I AM"; and those who are with him are strong against Unbelievers, (but) compassionate amongst each other. Thou wilt see them bow and prostrate themselves (in prayer), seeking Grace from "I AM" and (His) Good Pleasure. On their faces are their marks (
Rev. 7:4-9,
14:1-4) (being) the traces of their prostration (
Matt. 6:5-8,
Sura 7:55).
This is their similitude in the Taurat (The Torah); and their similitude in The Gospel is: like a seed which sends forth its blade, then makes it strong; it then becomes thick, and it stands on its own stem, (filling) the sowers with wonder and delight. As a result, it fills the Unbelievers with rage at them. "I AM" has promised those among them who believe and do righteous deeds Forgiveness, and a great Reward.
Sura 7:157-158
7:157. Those who follow
The Apostle,
the unlettered Prophet, whom they find mentioned in their own (Scriptures - the Bible),- in The Law (The Torah) and The Gospel (New Testament - Covenant);- for he
commands them what is just and forbids them what is evil; he allows them as lawful what is good (and pure) and prohibits them from what is bad (and impure); he releases them from their heavy burdens (
Matthew 23:1-4) and from the yokes that are upon them. So it is those who believe him, honour him, help him, and follow the Light which is sent down with him,- it is they who will prosper [
King of kings' Bible -
John 8:3 (KJV - John 8:12)]."
7:158. Say: "O men! I am sent unto you all, as the Messenger of "I AM", to Whom belongeth the Dominion of the heavens and the Earth: there is no god but He: it is He That giveth both life and death. So believe in "I AM" and His Messenger, the Unlettered Prophet (
John 7:15-19), who believeth "I AM" and His words:
follow him that (so) ye may be guided (by "The Way" -
John 14:6)."
John 7:15-19
7:15 And the Jews marvelled, saying,
How knoweth this man "Letters", having never been taught?
7:16 Jesus answered them, and said,
My doctrine is not mine, but His that sent me.
7:17
If any man will do His will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or [whether] I speak of myself.
7:18 He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh His glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.
7:19 Did not Moses give you The Law, and [yet] NONE of you keepeth The Law? Why go ye about to kill me?
John 8:3 Then spoke Jesus again unto them, saying,
I am the Light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the Light of Life.
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him,
I am The Way, the Truth, and the Life: NOT one man cometh unto the Father, EXCEPT by me.
John 3:19-21
3:19
And this is the condemnation, that Light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than Light, because their deeds were evil.
3:20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the Light, neither cometh to the Light, lest his deeds should be revealed.
3:21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the Light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
And in context...
Sura 5:46-50
5:46. But why do they come to thee for decision, when they have (their own) Law (the Torah) before them?- therein is the (plain) command of "I AM"; yet even after that, they would turn away. For they are not (really) People of Faith.
5:47. It was We Who revealed The Law (to Moses): therein is Guidance and Light. By its Standard (Criterion) have been judged the Jews, by the Prophets who bowed to "I AM"'s Will; the Rabbis and the Doctors of Law: for to them was entrusted the protection of "I AM"'s Book, and they were witnesses thereto: therefore fear not men, but fear Me, and sell not My Signs for a miserable price. If any do fail to judge by (the Light of) what "I AM" hath revealed, they are (no better than) Unbelievers.
5:48. We ordained therein for them: "Life for life, eye for eye, nose for nose, ear for ear, tooth for tooth, and wounds equal for equal." But if any one remits the retaliation by way of charity, it is an act of atonement for himself (
Matt. 5:44). And if any fail to judge by (the Light of) what "I AM" hath revealed, they are (no better than) wrong-doers (and are the accomplices of the wrong-doers and equally guilty).
5:49. And in their footsteps We sent Jesus the son of Mary, confirming The Law that had come before him: We sent him the Gospel: therein is Guidance and Light, and confirmation of The Law that had come before him: a Guidance and a Warning to those who fear "I AM".
5:50. Let the People of the Gospel judge by what "I AM" hath revealed therein. If any do fail to judge by (the Light of) what "I AM" hath revealed, they are (no better than) those who rebel (and are equally guilty).
Of course roughly 2 billion "Muslims" practicing what they refer to as "Islam" (with its
unscriptural made-up rules, rites and rituals) proves the above statement to be a
LIE.
If instead of following the traditions of men -- which make the Commandments of God of no effect -- we instead obey and follow
ONLY what God has said in His Book (
Acts 5:29), there would be no organized religions of any kind. God's Book includes the Old Covenant, New Covenant, Koran and
THE KEY to all three, referred to as "
the white stone" and "
the little book" in
Revelation 2:17 and
10:7-10.
