Hello,
Here are some questions comes to my mind about verse 3:7
This verse has been translated in many ways.
https://www.islamawakened.com/quran/3/7/
but generally could be read in two ways:
"He it is Who has sent down the Book upon thee; therein are signs determined; they are the Mother of the Book, and others symbolic. As for those whose hearts are given to swerving, they follow that of it which is symbolic, seeking temptation and seeking its interpretation. And none know its interpretation save God and those firmly rooted in knowledge. They say, “We believe in it; all is from our Lord.” And none remember, save those who possess intellect" 3:7
"He it is Who has sent down to thee the Book: In it are verses basic or fundamental (of established meaning); they are the foundation of the Book: others are allegorical. But those in whose hearts is perversity follow the part thereof that is allegorical, seeking discord, and searching for its hidden meanings, but no one knows its hidden meanings except God. And those who are firmly grounded in knowledge say: "We believe in the Book; the whole of it is from our Lord:" and none will grasp the Message except men of understanding" 3-7
Here are some questions:
1. Why there are Mutishabihat and Muhkamaat in the Quran? Why not all of it Muhkamaat?
2. How can we tell what verse is Muhkam, and what verse Mutishabih?
3. How many verses are in Quran which are Mutishabihat?
4. If no one knows interpretation of the Mutishabihat, then how do we understand them?
5. Why would God reveal Mutishabihat verses which no one knows its interpretation except God?
6. Give some examples of Mutishabihat verses, and explain how you know they are Mutishabihat.
7. What does it mean, those who in their hearts is perversity, they follow its Mutishabihat?
8. Provide some examples of some Mutishabihat verses, that some people who in their heart was perversity had followed its Mutishabihaat, and caused perversity.
9. Who are the People who are Well-grounded in knowledge? Please give a few examples of such people, and prove it from the Quran, otherwise anyone can make this claim.
Thanks
