And please, I am not trying to say Quran was wrong. But rather am looking for a valid explanation of the verse I referred in my original post. I totally agree with you that the Holy Quran need to be read as a whole and not in fragments. | ||

Maybe we are missing something in the translation? |

I was still in the process of looking for a scholarly reply to you, and have found one, but it is in Arabic.. I unfortunately don't have the time to translate it.. I can leave it here for one of the other Arabic memebrs to take a stab at it if they have the time http://www.elforkan.com/7ewar/showthread.php?t=4381 the gist however is, in the verse above that I have quoted you.. peace and For the skeptic, no amount of proof will be enough, and for the believer, no amount of proof is necessary.

Gender: Way of Life: Muslim | let's keep the verse standing on its own accord for now, until I find the most scholarly reply in English.. I don't like some of exegesis to text of this importance..

I found this, which is written by a Dr. Naszhmi musa... It is probably one of the best I have read on the matter, if you are interested in translating? Or I can pose a question to ask the scholar at http://www.islamonline.net/servlet/S.../FatwaCounselE Quote:
