Flaws of Islam

Continued from previous page.
Islam has no means of salvation other than it is achieved through obedience to the teachings of Allah. In other words, man has to earn his salvation.
In Christianity, one has only to believe in Christ and salvation is obtained. Works are never an issue.
Islam claims that the Qur'an is the literal Word of God and is perfect and without error.
However!
If the Bible is the foundation uncorrupted, of the Qur'an, then the following are just the beginning of the inconsistencies between the two.
Qur'an - one God, one person; Bible - one God, three persons.
Qur'an - Jesus was a prophet but only a man; Bible - Jesus is God incarnate.
Qur'an - Salvation is by works, salvation is uncertain; Bible - Salvation is by grace through faith and is assured.
Qur'an - contains historical corruptions; Bible - contains no corruptions and has been proven accurate throughout history.
Since it is generally agreed that God cannot inspire errors, then any and all revelations must be accurate, otherwise God would not be God if He made mistakes.
Errors within the Qur'an.
Qur'an states that the Ark of Noah came to rest on the Mt. Judi (Sura 11:44); Bible states Mt. Ararat.
Qur'an states that Abrahams father was Azar (Sura 6:74); Bible states that his father was Terah.
Qur'an claims that Abraham attempted to sacrifice Ishmael (Sura 37:100-112); Bible claims Isaac was the son placed on the sacrificial alter.
Qur'an claims that it was Pharoah's wife who adopted Moses (Sura 28:8-9); Bible states it was Pharaoh's daughter who adopted Moses.
Qur'an claims that the flood of Noah occurred in Moses' day (Sura 7:136, 7:59); Bible claims the Flood occurred many centuries earlier.
Qur'an claims that Mary had Jesus under a palm tree (Sura 19:22); Bible claims the Jesus was born in a stable.
Qur'an claims that Muhammad was described in the Bible (Sura 7:157); Bible has no reference to Mohammad.
The Qur'an mentions many episodes in the Bible, however it adds or confuses many of the facts.
Qur'an claims that the Jews returned to Egypt after the Exodus (Sura 2:56-57:61); Bible calls them Israelites, the term Jew did not occur until many centuries later, and they did not return to Egypt.
Qur'an claims that Zechariah would be speechless for three days (Sura 3:41); Bible states that he lost his voice for nine months and regained it when John the Baptist was born.
Qur'an gives the story of Joseph (Sura 12:11-20), which is totally different than the story written in the Bible, Gen. 37.
Qur'an confuses the two men Saul and Gideon (Sura 2:241) when compared to the Bible.
Qur'an tells a totally different story when compared to Gen. 37-45 (Sura 12:21-32, 36-55.
Qur'an teaches that one of Noah's sons did not enter the Ark (Sura 11), then states that all of Noah's family entered into the Ark (Sura 21), compare with the Bible in Gen. 6-7.
Qur'an has within it conflicting accounts of Muhammad's call to be a prophet, Sura 52:2-18, 81:19-24, Sura 16:102, 26:192-94, Sura 15:18, 2:97.
Qur'an teaches that it took God eight days to create the world (Sura 41:9-12), where Sura 7:51, 10:3, and 11:6 claim that it took him only six days.
The Qur'an challenges men to find contradictions in the Qur'an (Sura 4:84)
The Bible has been challenged and proven accurate and is independently verified by prophecy, archaeology, manuscript evidence and so forth. The Qur'an has none of these verifications, nor even independent proof of Muhammad's claim of his inspiration. Although Muhammad obviously had a rather thorough knowledge of the Bible, many of his remembered facts were in error.
The Qur'an calls itself the 'mother of books,' Sura 43:3. Sura 2:23 and 10:37-38 challenges anyone to find any book better.
Qur'an claims that Allah inspired the Old and New Testaments, however it then contradicts within itself the fundamental stories contained in the Bible.
And finally the Qur'an claims to have been written in perfect Arabic, Sura 12:2, 13:37, 41:41,44, however it is filled, within its original documents, non-Arabic words and many grammatical errors (Morey, pgs 117-120).
The Qur'an claims that it is the word-for-word copy of that which is in heaven, Sura 85:21-22.
If indeed its words did come from Allah then Allah could not have made so many errors if he were in fact, God.
Through the centuries, Christians have questioned, examined, tested, and proven the scriptures of the Bible. In Islam even to question is a form of blasphemy, removing one from a chance at heaven.
