Koran 2:249

And when Saul went forth with the soldiers, he said, “Indeed, Allah will be testing you with a river. So whoever drinks from it is not of me, and whoever does not taste it is indeed of me, excepting one who takes [from it] in the hollow of his hand.”

But they drank from it, except a [very] few of them. Then when he had crossed it along with those who believed with him, they said, “There is no power for us today against Goliath and his soldiers.”

But those who were certain that they would meet Allah said, “How many a small company has overcome a large company by permission of Allah. And Allah is with the patient.”

Koran 2:249

Muhammad includes the imperfect words of imperfect others, an interlocutor who is only in Muhammad’s mind, instead of the perfect words of the perfect Qur’an from perfect Allah. This means that Muhammad’s recitation, Muhammad’s Koran, is not from Allah, which means Allah, Muhammad, Islamic doctrine, Islam, and Koran are incoherent and false.

Look carefully at this verse. You’ll see the words of defeated soldiers: “There is no power for us today against Goliath and his soldiers”, and the words of victorious soldiers: “How many a small company has overcome a large company by permission of Allah. And Allah is with the patient.” From this, you know that these words are not the perfect words of the perfect Qur’an from perfect Allah.

But there’s worse. See how Muhammad gets mixed up: “those who believed with him” are the victorious soldiers who speak as the defeated soldiers: “There is no power for us today against Goliath and his soldiers.” The ones left behind, the defeated soldiers speak as the victorious soldiers: “How many a small company has overcome a large company by permission of Allah. And Allah is with the patient.”

And there’s worse. Note how “Saul”, tells his men his test openly first. What soldier would disobey such a command in peace? Instead, this silliness is Muhammad getting the story wrong.

But there’s far worse. This river test is actually from the story of Gideon and his river test for picking the cautious of his men out from the careless. Gideon and his men never faced Goliath and the army of the Philistines.

So the best replacement for this confused nonsense is: “”, the empty sentence.
