Koran 9:23-24

9:23 O you who have believed, do not take your fathers or your brothers as allies if they have preferred disbelief over belief.

And whoever does so among you – then it is those who are the wrongdoers.

24 Say, [O Muhammad], “If your fathers, your sons, your brothers, your wives, your relatives, wealth which you have obtained, commerce wherein you fear decline, and dwellings with which you are pleased are more beloved to you than Allah and His Messenger and jihad in His cause, then wait until Allah executes His command. And Allah does not guide the defiantly disobedient people.”

Koran 9:23-24

Muhammad, ad nauseam: “who have believed”. Read, O you who have believed.

Muhammad Allah commands Muhammad to: “Say” or “Recite”. This means that this passage is addressed to Muhammad, not to all people. Thus, this passage can’t be in the perfect words of the perfect Qur’an from perfect Allah. As it is addressed to Muhammad, in his time and place, his context, this also means that this passage is locked to Muhammad’s context and can’t be in the context-free, perfect Qur’an from perfect Allah with all its perfect words. Thus, this passage is part of Muhammad’s recitation, Muhammad’s Koran, which means Islamic doctrine and Islam are incoherent and false, meaning Allah is incoherent, imaginary, fictional, and false.

Muhammad spoke about Allah in the third person. This means this passage is not the perfect words of the perfect Qur’an from perfect Allah. Thus, Allah is false, imaginary, and fictional, which means Islamic doctrine and Islam are nonsensical and false.

Note Muhammad’s hatred of the family for his men in verse 23. In other words, Muslims are commanded to even murder their relatives and family. See:

The father of Abu `Ubaydah bin Al-Jarrah was repeatedly praising the idols to his son on the day of Badr, and Abu `Ubaydah kept avoiding him. When Al-Jarrah persisted, his son Abu `Ubaydah headed towards him and killed him. Allah revealed this Ayah in his case, [58:22]…

Tafsir Ibn Kathir, 9:23

Muhammad made a mistake here: “His Messenger and jihad in His cause”. Note that it’s Muhammad that commands Jihad in his cause and it’s Muhammad that’s “divine”. Muhammad is demanding his men love him.

In the last line, Muhammad shows that Allah is incoherent and thus false. How? Recall that Muhammad was a polytheist and a member of the Quraysh tribe.

Also, did you notice the sexism? Muhammad was demanding his men love him. His MEN.

These problems show that Muhammad, Koran and Islam are evil and that Allah is false. So the best replacement for this passage is: “”, the empty sentence.
