Numbers and
Deuteronomy.

Sura 3:64. Say: "O People of The Book (Bible)! come to common terms as between us and you: that
we worship none but God; that
we associate no partners with Him; that we erect not, from among ourselves, lords and patrons other than God." If then they turn back, say ye: "Bear witness that we (at least) are "True in Faith" (bowing to God's Will)."
Sura 4:36. Serve God, and
join not any partners with Him; and do good- to parents, kinsfolk, orphans, those in need, neighbours who are near, neighbours who are strangers, the companion by your side, the wayfarer (ye meet), and what your right hands possess: for God loveth not the arrogant, the conceited;-
Sura 4:48.
God forgiveth not that partners should be set up with Him; but He forgiveth anything else, to whom He pleaseth;
to set up partners with God is to devise a sin most heinous indeed.
Sura 5:4. Forbidden to you (for food) are: dead meat (
Lev. 22:8,
Deut. 14:21), blood (
Lev. 3:17,
Lev. 17:10-11), the flesh of swine (
Deut. 14:8), and that on which hath been invoked the name of other than "I AM" (
Num. 25:1-3); that which hath been killed by strangling, or by a violent blow, or by a headlong fall, or by being gored to death; that which hath been (partly) eaten by a wild animal (
Lev. 22:8); unless ye are able to slaughter it (in due form) that which is sacrificed on stone (altars); (forbidden) also is the division (of meat) by raffling with arrows: that is impiety. This day have those who reject Faith given up all hope of your religion: yet fear them not, but fear Me (
Matt. 10:28).
THIS DAY* I have perfected your religion for you, completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for YOU, submission to My will, as your religion. But if any is forced by hunger, with no inclination to transgression, "I AM" is indeed Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
*This leaves absolutely
NO wiggle room for men to fabricate additional writings about the Koran/Quran
AFTER the Koran/Quran. Only the Word of God found in the Old Covenant/Testament, New Covenant/Testament and Koran/Quran –
or prophesied or confirmed in them – is HIS Inspired Message of Truth. Everything else is from Satan, exactly as it says in the Koran/Quran. And anyone who joins/partners the self-contradictory, Koran/Quran contradicting Hadith to God's Word
has committed shirk, whether they realize it or not.
Sura 5:102. The Messenger's duty is
only to proclaim (the Message)(
John 7:16-17). But "I AM" knoweth all that ye reveal and ye conceal.
Sura 6:22-24
6:22. One day shall We gather them all together: We shall say to those who ascribed partners (to Us): "Where are the partners whom ye (invented and) talked about (
Deut. 32:37-39)?"
6:23. There will then be (left) no subterfuge for them but to say: "By "I AM" our Lord, we were not those who joined gods with "I AM"."
6:24. Behold! How they lie against their own souls! But the (lie) which they invented will leave them in the lurch.
Sura 6:78-81
6:78. When he saw the Sun rising in splendour, he said: "This is my Lord; this is the greatest (of all)." But when the Sun set, he said: "O my People! I am indeed free from your (guilt) of giving partners to God.
6:79. For me, I have set my face, firmly and truly, towards Him Who created the heavens and the Earth, and never shall I give partners to God."
6:80. His people disputed with him. He said: "(Come) ye to dispute with me, about God, when He (Himself) hath guided me? I fear not (the beings) ye associate with God: unless my Lord willeth, (nothing can happen). My Lord comprehendeth in His knowledge all things. Will ye not (yourselves) be advised?
6:81. How should I fear (the beings) ye associate with God, when ye fear not to give partners to God without any warrant having been given to you? Which of (us) two parties hath more right to security? (Tell me) if ye know.
Sura 6:93-94
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 6:136-137
6:136. Out of what "I AM" hath produced in abundance in tilth and in cattle, they assigned Him a share: they say, according to their fancies: "This is for "I AM", and this - for Our "partners"!" But the share of their "partners" reacheth not "I AM", whilst the share of "I AM" reacheth their "partners"! Evil (and unjust) is their assignment!
6:137. Even so, in the eyes of most of the Pagans, their "partners" made alluring the slaughter of their children, in order to lead them to their own destruction, and cause confusion in their religion. If "I AM" had willed, they would not have done so: but leave alone them and their inventions.
Sura 6:148. Those who give partners (to "I AM") will say: "If "I AM" had wished, we should not have given partners to Him, nor would our fathers; nor should we have had any taboos." So did their ancestors argue falsely, until they tasted of Our wrath. Say: "Have ye
ANY (certain) knowledge? If so, produce it before us. Ye follow nothing but
conjecture: ye do nothing but
lie."
Sura 6:163.
No partner hath He: this am I COMMANDED, and I am the first of those who bow to His Will.
Sura 7:33. Say: "The things that my Lord hath indeed forbidden are: shameful deeds, whether open or secret; sins and trespasses against truth or reason; assigning of partners to "I AM", for which He hath given no authority; and saying things about "I AM" of which ye have no knowledge."
Sura 7:190-199
7:190. But when He giveth them a goodly child, they ascribe to others a share in the gift they have received: but
"I AM" is exalted high above the partners they ascribe to Him.
7:191. Do they indeed ascribe to Him as partners things that can create nothing, but are themselves created?
7:192. No aid can they give them, nor can they aid themselves!
7:193. If ye call them to guidance, they will not obey: for you it is the same whether ye call them or ye hold your peace!
7:194. Verily those whom ye call upon besides "I AM" are servants like unto you: call upon them, and let them listen to your prayer, if ye are (indeed) truthful!
7:195. Have they feet to walk with? Or hands to lay hold with? Or eyes to see with? Or ears to hear with? Say: "Call your 'god-partners', scheme (your worst) against me, and give me no respite!
7:196. For my Protector is "I AM", Who revealed The Book (from time to time), and He will choose and befriend the righteous.
7:197. But those ye call upon besides Him, are unable to help you, and indeed to help themselves."
7:198. If thou callest them to guidance, they hear not. Thou wilt see them looking at thee, but they see not.
7:199. Hold to forgiveness; command what is right; but turn away from the ignorant (rude ones).
Sura 9:31. They take their priests and their monks to be their lords in derogation of "I AM", and (they take as their Lord) Jesus the son of Mary; yet they were commanded (by him) to worship only One God: there is no god but He. Praise and glory to Him: (far is He) from having the partners they associate (with Him).
Sura 10:18. They serve, besides "I AM", things that neither hurt them nor profit them, and they say: "These are our intercessors with "I AM"." Say: "Do ye indeed inform "I AM" of something He knows not, in the heavens or on Earth?- Glory to Him! And far is He above the partners they ascribe (to Him)!"
Sura 10:28. One Day shall We gather them all together. Then shall We say to those who joined gods (with Us): "To your place! Ye and those ye joined as 'partners'." We shall separate them (
Matt. 25:31-46), and their "partners" shall say: "It was not us that ye worshipped!
Sura 10:34--37
10:34. Say: "Of your 'partners', can any originate creation and repeat it?" Say: "It is "I AM" Who originates creation and repeats it: then how are ye deluded away (from the truth)?"
10:35. Say: "Of your 'partners' is there any that can give any guidance towards Truth?" Say: "It is "I AM" Who gives guidance towards Truth. Is then He Who gives guidance to Truth more worthy to be followed, or he who finds not guidance (himself) unless he is guided? What then is the matter with you? How judge ye?"
10:36. But most of them follow nothing but fancy: truly fancy can be of no avail against Truth. Verily "I AM" is well aware of all that they do.
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.
Sura 10:66. Behold! Verily to "I AM" belong all creatures, in the heavens and on Earth.
What do they follow who worship as His "partners" other than "I AM"? They follow nothing but fancy, and they do nothing but lie.
Sura 11:55. Other gods as partners! So scheme (your worst) against me, all of you, and give me no respite.
Sura 12:38. And I follow the ways of my fathers,- Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and never could we attribute any partners whatever to God: that (comes) from the grace of God to us and to mankind: yet most men are not grateful.
Sura 12:105-108
12:105. And how many Signs in the heavens and the Earth do they pass by? Yet they turn (their faces) away from them!
12:106. And most of them believe not in "I AM" without associating (others as partners) with Him!
12:107. Do they then feel secure from the coming against them of the covering veil of the wrath of "I AM",- or of the coming against them of the (final) Hour all of a sudden while they perceive not?
12:108. Say thou: "This is my Way: I do invite unto "I AM",- on evidence clear as the seeing with one's eyes,- I and whoever follows me. Glory to "I AM"! And never will I join gods with "I AM"!"
Sura 13:16. Say: "Who is the Lord and Sustainer of the heavens and the Earth?" Say: "(It is) "I AM"." Say: "Do ye then take (for worship) protectors other than Him, such as have no power either for good or for harm to themselves?" Say: "Are the blind equal with those who see? Or the depths of darkness equal with Light?" Or do they assign to "I AM" partners who have created (anything) like He has created, so that the creation seemed similar to them? Say: "("I AM") is The Creator of all things: He is the One, the Supreme and Irresistible."
Sura 13:33-36
13:33. Is then He Who standeth over every soul (and knoweth) all that it doeth, (like any others)? And yet they ascribe partners to "I AM". Say: "But name them! Is it that ye will inform Him of something He knoweth not on Earth, or is it (just) a show of words?" Nay! To those who believe not, their pretence seems pleasing, but they are kept back (thereby) from The Way. And those whom "I AM" leaves to stray, no one can guide.
13:34. For them is a Penalty in the life of this world, but harder, truly, is The Penalty of the Hereafter: and they have no defender against "I AM".
13:35. The parable of The Garden which the righteous are promised!- beneath it flow rivers: perpetual is the enjoyment thereof and the shade therein: such is the End for the Righteous; and the End of Unbelievers is The Fire.
13:36. Those to whom We have given the Book rejoice at what hath been revealed unto thee: but there are among the sects those who reject a part thereof. Say: "I am commanded to worship "I AM", and not to join partners (or wives -
Jeremiah 44:19-29) with Him. Unto Him do I call, and unto Him is my return."
Sura 16:1-3
16:1. (Inevitably) cometh (to pass) the Command of "I AM": seek ye not then to hasten it: glory to Him, and far is He above having the partners they ascribe unto Him (
Jeremiah 44:19-29)!
16:2. He doth send down His angels with inspiration by His Command, to such of His servants as He pleaseth, (saying): "Warn (Man) that there is no god but I [AM]: so do your duty unto Me."
16:3. He has created the heavens and the Earth for just ends: far is He above having the partners they ascribe to Him!
Sura 16:27. Then, on The Day of Judgment, He will cover them with shame, and say: "Where are My 'partners' concerning whom ye used to dispute (with the Godly)?" Those endued with Knowledge will say: "This Day, indeed, are the Unbelievers covered with Shame and Misery,-
Sura 16:86-88
16:86. When those who gave partners to "I AM" will see their "partners", they will say: "Our Lord! These are our 'partners,' those whom we used to invoke besides Thee." But they (the partners) will throw back their word at them (and say): "Indeed ye are liars!"
16:87. That Day shall they (openly) show (their) submission to "I AM"; and all their inventions shall leave them in the lurch.
16:88. Those who reject "I AM" and hinder (men) from The Way of "I AM" (
Deut. 31:29) - for them will We add Penalty to Penalty; because they used to spread mischief.
Sura 16:98-101
16:98. When thou dost read the Koran, seek "I AM"'s protection from Satan the Rejected One.
16:99. No authority has he over those who believe and put their trust in their Lord.
16:100. His authority is only over those, who take him as patron and who join partners with "I AM".
16:101. When We substitute one revelation for another,- and "I AM" knows best what He reveals (in stages),- they say, "Thou art but a forger": but most of them understand not.
Sura 17:111. Say: "Praise be to "I AM", Who begets no (human) son, and has no partner (
Jeremiah 44:19-29) in (His) Dominion: nor (needs) He any to protect Him from humiliation: yea, magnify Him for His greatness and glory!"
Sura 18:42. So his fruits (and enjoyment) were encompassed (with ruin), and he remained twisting and turning his hands over what he had spent on his property, which had (now) tumbled to pieces to its very foundations, and he could only say, "Woe is me! Would I had never ascribed partners to my Lord and Cherisher!"
Sura 18:52. One Day He will say, "Call on those whom ye thought to be My partners," and they will call on them, but they will not listen to them; and We shall make for them a place of common perdition.
Sura 18:110. Say: "I am only a man like yourselves, (but) the inspiration has come to me, that your God is One God:
whoever expects to meet his Lord, let him work righteousness, and, in the worship of his Lord, admit no one as His partner.
Sura 22:31. Being true in faith to "I AM", and
never assigning partners to Him (
Jer. 44:19-29): if anyone assigns partners to "I AM", he is as if he had fallen from heaven and been snatched up by birds, or the wind had swooped (like a bird on its prey) and thrown him into a far-distant place.
Sura 23:59. Those who join not (in worship) partners with their Lord;
Sura 23:92. He knows what is hidden and what is open: too high is He for the partners they attribute to Him!
Sura 25:2. He to Whom belongs the Dominion of the heavens and the Earth: no human son has He begotten, nor has He a partner in His Dominion (
Jer. 44:19-29): it is He Who created all things, and ordered them in due proportions.
Sura 28:62-64
28:62. That Day ("I AM") will call to them, and say: "Where are My 'partners'?- whom ye imagined (to be such)?"
28:63. Those against whom the charge will be proved, will say: "Our Lord! These are the ones whom we led astray: we led them astray, as we were astray ourselves: we free ourselves (from them) in Thy presence: it was not us they worshipped."
28:64. It will be said (to them): "Call upon your 'partners' (for help)": they will call upon them, but they will not listen to them; and they will see The Penalty (before them); (how they will wish) 'If only we had been open to Guidance!'
Sura 28:68. Thy Lord does create and choose as He pleases: no choice have they (in the matter): Glory to "I AM"! And far is He above the partners they ascribe (to Him)!
Sura 30:12-14
30:12. On the Day that the Hour (
Mark 13:32) will be established, the guilty will be struck dumb with despair.
30:13. No intercessor will they have among their "Partners" and they will (themselves) reject their "Partners".
30:14. On the Day that the Hour will be established,- that Day shall (all men) be sorted out.
Sura 30:40. It is "I AM" Who has created you: further, He has provided for your sustenance; then He will cause you to die; and again He will give you life (re-incarnation). Are there any of your (false) "Partners" who can do any single one of these things? Glory to Him! And high is He above the partners they attribute (to Him)!
Sura 34:27. Say: "Show me those whom ye have joined with Him as partners: by no means (can ye). Nay, He is "I AM", the Exalted in Power, the Wise."
Sura 35:14. If ye invoke them, they will not listen to your call, and if they were to listen, they cannot answer your (prayer). On The Day of Judgment they will reject your "Partnership". And none, (O man!) can tell thee (the Truth) like the One Who is acquainted with all things.
Sura 35:40. Say: "Have ye seen (these) 'Partners' of yours whom ye call upon besides "I AM"? Show Me what it is they have created in the (wide) Earth. Or have they a share in the heavens? Or have We given them a Book from which they (can derive) clear (evidence)?- Nay, the wrong-doers promise each other nothing but delusions.
Sura 40:12. (The answer will be
"This is because, when "I AM" was invoked as the Only (object of worship), ye did reject Faith, but when partners were joined to Him, ye believed! The Command is with "I AM", Most High, Most Great!"
Sura 40:42. Ye do call upon me to blaspheme against "I AM", and to join with Him partners of whom I have no knowledge; and I call you to the Exalted in Power, Who forgives again and again!"
Sura 40:84-85
40:84. But when they saw Our Punishment, they said: "We believe in "I AM",- the One God - and we reject the partners we used to join with Him."
40:85. But their professing the Faith when they (actually) saw Our Punishment was
not going to profit them. (Such has been) "I AM"'s Way of dealing with His servants (from the most ancient times). And even thus did the Rejecters of "I AM" perish (utterly)!
Sura 41:47-48
41:47. To Him is referred the Knowledge of The Hour (of Judgment: He knows all): no date-fruit comes out of its sheath, nor does a female conceive (within her womb) nor bring forth (young), except by His Knowledge. The Day that ("I AM") will propound to them the (question), "Where are the Partners (ye attributed) to Me?" They will say, "We do assure Thee not one of us can bear witness!"
41:48. The (deities) they used to invoke aforetime will leave them in the lurch, and they will perceive that they have no way of escape.
Sura 42:21. What! Have they partners (in Godhead), who have established for them some religion without the permission of "I AM". Had it not been for the Decree of Judgment, the matter would have been decided between them (at once). But verily the wrong-doers will have a grievous Penalty.
Sura 59:23. "I AM" is He, than Whom there is no other God- the Sovereign, the Holy One, the Source of Peace (and Perfection), the Guardian of Faith, the Preserver of Safety, the Almighty, the Irresistible, the Supreme: Glory to "I AM"! (High is He) above the partners they attribute to Him.
Sura 68:41. Or have they some "Partners" (in Godhead)? Then let them produce their "partners", if they are truthful!
Choosing to believe in the fabricated writings known as "the hadith" (the traditions of the fathers/elders) or in the obvious forgery that calls itself "the Gospel of Barnabas", etc. is making a partner out of those satanic writings with God, i.e.
committing shirk.
A careful, honest examination of the core, doctrinal beliefs of “Islam” reveals that few if any of their traditional beliefs are actually scriptural.
