Koran 19:16-21

19:16 And mention, [O Muhammad], in the Book [the story of] Mary, when she withdrew from her family to a place toward the east.

17 And she took, in seclusion from them, a screen. Then We sent to her Our Angel, and he represented himself to her as a well-proportioned man.

18 She said, “Indeed, I seek refuge in the Most Merciful from you, [so leave me], if you should be fearing of Allah.”

19 He said, “I am only the messenger of your Lord to give you [news of] a pure boy.”

20 She said, “How can I have a boy while no man has touched me and I have not been unchaste?”

21 He said, “Thus [it will be]; your Lord says, ‘It is easy for Me, and We will make him a sign to the people and a mercy from Us. And it is a matter [already] decreed.'”

Koran 19:16-21

Note the mistake by Muhammad in this passage, “in the Book”, together with earlier: “mention”, this shows that Muhammad is referring to the Bible, not to the Koran (still oral mostly) and not to the imaginary Qur’an. Naturally, the Bible does not come from nor is revealed by the imaginary Allah or demon “Jibril”.

Also, note that “Our Angel” isn’t named “Gabriel”. This shows that the “Jibril” of Muhammad is NOT the Gabriel who spoke to Mary, and thus shows that Jibril is a demon.

This is further confirmed by Muhammad being unable to name the place: “a place toward the east”. Muhammad was likely hearing the story of Luke from a Christian who was unable to speak the name of the place in Muhammad’s native language.

Muhammad spoke nonsense: “And she took, in seclusion from them, a screen.” A screen? Not a veil? Not a hijab as some Muslim apologists claim, so foolishly?

Compare Muhammad’s nonsense and faulty memory with the story from Luke:

The Birth of Jesus Foretold

²⁶ In the sixth month of Elizabeth’s pregnancy, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee, ²⁷ to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. ²⁸ The angel went to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.”

²⁹ Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be. ³⁰ But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God. ³¹ You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus. ³² He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, ³³ and he will reign over Jacob’s descendants forever; his kingdom will never end.”

³⁴ “How will this be,” Mary asked the angel, “since I am a virgin?”

³⁵ The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God. ³⁶ Even Elizabeth your relative is going to have a child in her old age, and she who was said to be unable to conceive is in her sixth month. ³⁷ For no word from God will ever fail.”

³⁸ “I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May your word to me be fulfilled.” Then the angel left her.

NIV Luke 1:26-38

For more comparisons between Gabriel and Jibril, see: WHO WAS THE SPIRIT THAT SQUEEZED MUHAMMAD AT THE CAVE? This article shows that Jibril was not Gabriel, and so Jibril most likely was a demon.

The best replacement for this passage is: “”, the empty sentence.
