Response by Randy Desmond to : Are angels
protectors?
Jochen gave us the obvious solution. Let's keep it.
As for the argument that this would make contradictions
in the Qur'an uncontradictory because the contradictions
would be there by the leave of God, that is a faulty logical
arguement.
Why?
Because one of the commands of Allah is that you would
have found a discrepancy if the Qur'an was not from God. To
say that a contradiction is present by God's command is to
attribute hypocrisy to God (I seek shelter in God from all
evil and ask his forgiveness). God is, afterall, the Truth.
Now, to say God protects, and by his command angels
protect is a coherent explanation. It does not attribute
double-talk to God, and logically coincides.
Would God say there are not discrepencies and then
command that there would be? No way. If you have been
following the responses I have put forth, no proposed
contradiction has been proven. It is up to you to read what
Jochen proposes and what the response is and decide if there
is any contradiction at all. I know I am convinced there are
no contradictions, but I am still looking at Jochen's web
page. Could there be a contradiction? I have enough faith
and experience to say that these proposed contradictions are
probably misunderstandings. Being honest to ourselves is the
most important step in drawing any meaningful conclusion
from these discussions.
It's time for my question to the reader. What would you
do if you also come to the conclusion that there are no
contradictions in the Qur'an? I hope you would become a
Muslim because of the simple beauty of its message; God is
One, and all worship is for him only.
