# Messenger Audio 10.2 (12-Nov-1982) {% embed url="" %} (0:00) Now what's very interesting is this. The Quran is mentioning this. (0:06) When Abus and Haraj, the Arab tribes, are fighting, then Arabs are fighting with their patrons. (0:13) So Jews are killing Jews. And when Jews are killing Jews, they are disobeying the commandments of Allah given to them (0:24) that Jews should not fight Jews or kill each other. (0:27) But something very interesting would happen. (0:32) When some Arab tribes would capture Jews, the Jews combined to ransom Jewish captives. (0:42) Because there's another commandment also, the Mosaic law, which says when Jews are taken prisoners, (0:49) then it's the duty of the Jew to ransom. (0:53) So this is very strange. Jews are killing each other, and when some of them are captured, they help each other to ransom. (1:04) It's possible, and maybe this is manifest, that the Jew considers the Arab inferior, (1:12) and therefore it's not proper for an Arab to have a Jewish slave. (1:15) There's something very subtle in here. (1:17) So they will see to it that one Jew is not a slave of an Arab, but they are killing each other. (1:26) So Allah is saying, you obey one part of the law by ransoming Jews, and you disobey the other one by killing each other. (1:39) And so the message is, if the Jews are doing this with the revelations of Allah, (1:47) well, it's almost telling us Muslims now, we cannot obey one part of Quran and then say, (1:54) oh, this other part is too hard, it is convenient. (1:59) Now I'm sure that I've just confined on the historical aspect, but if not... (2:05) It's even clear in surah 15, it says, war to the dividers, who take part of the Quran and leave the other part. (2:17) It's making the Quran go with their wishes. You either take the total thing or not. (2:24) And the message is very clear, with this proof, I'm sure this Iranian proof and this Iraqi proof, (2:30) when there is a law, then they pursue and they pray. (2:34) So they follow a part of the Quran. (2:37) Then when it's time to fight, like the Polisario and the Roka, then they kill. (2:44) Now Islam is a total way of life. (2:46) You cannot just choose this when it's necessary, and then disregard something. (2:51) That's great. (2:55) Okay, 88, they said, our hearts are shielded. (3:00) Rather, it is a curse, you see, they don't accept Quran, in other words, our hearts are shielded. (3:05) Rather, it is a curse from God, because of their disbelief, that prevents them from ever believing. (3:12) Thus, when a scripture came to them from God, and even though it confirms what they have, (3:18) and even though they used to predict its coming to the idolaters, (3:22) when their own predictions came true, they disbelieved. (3:27) Thus does God's curse affect the disbelievers. (3:31) Make it all clear. (3:32) 90, miserable indeed is what they sought and sought for. (3:37) Rejecting these revelations of God out of sheer resentment, (3:42) that God should bestow His blessings upon whomever He wills. (3:46) Consequently, they incurred wrath upon wrath. (3:49) They will suffer here to get in retribution. (3:53) There may be some people who will not, they look at the Quran, there's nothing wrong with it, (4:00) there is even physical evidence that it is a divine scripture, (4:03) but they will not accept it, just out of resentment that it's coming from the Arabs, maybe. (4:08) Or for some other reason. (4:14) So what they do is they are really destroying their own soul. (4:18) It's wrong themselves. (4:21) 91, when they are told to believe in these revelations of God, (4:25) they say, we believe only in what was revealed to us. (4:30) They thus reject all subsequent scriptures, even though they know it is the truth, (4:35) and even though it confirms their own scriptures. (4:38) Say, why did you slay God and prophets in the past, if you were really believers? (4:45) See, they say we believe in our revelations, because it came to us. (4:49) But then, the question here is, you really didn't. (4:53) When you had your own scriptures, without the Quran, you didn't follow it. (4:58) And they even killed their prophets. (5:00) Thank you. (5:05) This touches a nerve. (5:09) I just want to mention something. (5:12) It's very interesting. (5:14) This one says they killed their prophet, 91, in 87, messenger. (5:21) I found out that, this is not for accounting, but what I was able to get, (5:27) there are around 9 verses, I know there might be more, (5:34) about killing the prophets and messengers. (5:38) Out of these 9, 3 mentioned messengers, and 6 prophets. (5:45) It's very interesting. (5:50) In other words, it's not just prophets, but some of these prophets were actual messengers. (5:55) And certainly, there are still messengers, and prophets, and so on. (6:00) Well, then, Mahmoud did some thinking about the killing of Moses, probably. (6:06) The killing of Moses and Aaron. (6:08) It's a possibility that they killed them. (6:11) But there are also many other prophets in that the children of Israel that they killed. (6:16) Prophets like Isaiah, Ezekiel, I don't know which ones were killed by them, (6:20) but many of the prophets were killed by them. (6:22) Jeremiah was killed. (6:23) Jeremiah. (6:24) In the way to Egypt, probably. (6:27) Zachariah. (6:29) Zachariah was killed. (6:32) The uncle of Jesus, yeah, the uncle of Jesus. (6:39) John the Baptist was killed by them. (6:41) Anyway, we were discussing this at length the other day, (6:45) and my thoughts about this are that Satan, initially, when Moses was sent to the children of Israel, (6:56) either you, Adam, give the lesson, or me. (7:02) You can't have two teachers. (7:06) When Moses came, Satan directed his attention to have them desecrate the prophets and the messengers. (7:15) Have no respect for Moses. (7:16) They don't, even now. (7:18) If you watch the Seventh Commandment, the movie, (7:22) but this technique backfired on Satan, because they ended up worshiping God. (7:31) Now, later on, of course, the scholars came and they invented the mishnah and the gemara, and the talmud. (7:36) But that was something that Satan did later. (7:41) And then when he came to the Christians, he went the other way. (7:44) He made them idolize the prophet too much. (7:47) Worship him, like a god. (7:50) So that also, that was very successful. (7:53) And he did it better with the Muslims by making it subtle. (7:58) He followed the same technique that succeeded the Christians, but it's very subtle. (8:03) Yet, the Muslims are exactly like the Christians. (8:06) They really idolize Muhammad, exactly the way the Christians idolize Jesus. (8:12) I mean, you tell them Hadith is no good, and their hair stands up. (8:17) They're very, very emotional about it, as you know. (8:23) To the extent that they don't believe the Quran. (8:25) The Quran says it's complete, it's perfect, it shall be the only source, but they cannot stand there. (8:32) So the initial attempt of Satan was to make the Jews disrespect their messengers of God. (8:45) Where are we now?
