Koran 23:12-16

23:12 And certainly did We create man from an extract of clay.

13 Then We placed him as a sperm-drop in a firm lodging.

14 Then We made the sperm-drop into a clinging clot, and We made the clot into a lump [of flesh], and We made [from] the lump, bones, and We covered the bones with flesh; then We developed him into another creation.

So blessed is Allah, the best of creators.

15 Then indeed, after that you are to die.

16 Then indeed you, on the Day of Resurrection, will be resurrected.

Koran 23:12-16

This passage from verse 12 through verse 14 is refuted in What are we?

The sentence: “So blessed is Allah, the best of creators.” comes from Muhammad’s scribe. He later left Islam, after realising he controlled Muhammad and was putting these words in Muhammad’s mouth.

Interestingly, Tafsir Ibn Kathir, 23:13, says that the “extract of clay” is actually “Tin”?! See for yourself:

Allah tells us how He initially created man from an extract of Tin. This was Adam, peace be upon him, whom Allah created from sounding clay of altered black smooth mud.

Adam was called Tin because he was created from it.

Adam was created from Tin.

…was created from a sticky Tin, which is a sounding clay of altered black smooth mud, and that is created from dust…

Tafsir Ibn Kathir, 23:13

The scholars then refer to Koran 30:20, which has:

And of His signs is that He created you from dust; then, suddenly you were human beings dispersing [throughout the earth].

Koran 30:20

Note the change from “extract of clay” to “tin” to “dust”. This seems to be a language translation problem. But it doesn’t matter. We’re not made of dust, clay, tin, “extract of clay” or “sounding clay”. We’re made of cells made from CHON, and even what seems like minerals or stone, our bones, aren’t made of minerals or stones. We are, in other words, meat. And indeed, cannibals around the world show this to be true, when they kill, cook and eat other people. Muhammad’s ignorance of this shows his god, Allah is ignorant, and thus Allah, Islam, Koran and Muhammad are false.

The scholars then refer to a hadith, where Muhammad boasts more about Allah’s incompetence with:

Allah created Adam from a handful which He picked up from throughout the earth, so the sons of Adam came forth accordingly, red and white and black and in between, evil and good and in between.

Muhammad, hadith (unknown)

This hadith might be the one that the scholars refer to, perhaps by another translation:

Narrated Abu Musa Al-Ash’ari: that Muhammad said: “Indeed Allah Most High created Adam from a handful that He took from all of the earth. So the children of Adam come in according with the earth, some of them come red, and white and black, and between that, and the thin, the thick, the filthy, and the clean.”

Vol. 5, Book 44, Hadith 2955, Jami` at-Tirmidhi 

Note that this story is not in the Koran, and is obviously a just-so story, a story invented by Muhammad to explain the differences in people. You know it’s false because you’ve seen mixed-race people – Muhammad’s story can’t explain that. This photo below shows an albino man, something Muhammad’s story can’t cope with:

Muhammad’s story can’t account for Asians, Japanese, Chinese, and their skin and eyelids etc:

And Muhammad’s account can’t account for freckles:

And Muhammad’s story can’t account for facial birthmarks:

Muhammad’s just-so story doesn’t account for reality, which means it’s a lie and is false, showing Allah is imaginary and is Muhammad. Thus Allah, Muhammad, Islam and the Koran are false.

Amusingly, while looking I found a stupid saying by Muhammad:

It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said:

Muhammad said: “The whole of the son of Adam will be consumed by the earth, except for the tailbone, from which he was created and from which he will be created anew.”

Sunan an-Nasa’i 2077

This is obvious nonsense, particularly after one considers modern cremation methods which result in the corpse becoming ashes completely:

Continuing on with Muhammad’s lies, there’s the obvious truism of: “15 Then indeed, after that you are to die.” Notice Muhammad’s failure to address the life in between, showing Islam is about death.

Verse 16 continues Muhammad’s lies, with Muhammad presuming that his imaginary god will resurrect people, with zero evidence, except for him noticing that the desert blooms every spring, and not realising this is from last year’s tubers and seeds. Muhammad was also ignorant of farming, which might have corrected him. As I’ve shown with the Moon Splitting?, this “Day of Resurrection” will never happen.

The scholars of Tafsir Ibn Kathir, 23:13, continue discussing the creation of humans, showing Muhammad’s incoherent doctrine of Islamic Fate and Islamic Justice with:

The creation of anyone of you is gathered for forty days in his mother’s stomach as a Nutfah, then he becomes a clot for a similar period of time, then he becomes a little lump of flesh for a similar length of time. Then the angel is sent to him and he breathes the soul into it, and four things are decreed: his provision, his life-span, his deeds, and whether he will be wretched or blessed. By the One besides Whom there is no other god, one of you may do the deeds of the people of Paradise until there is no more than a forearm’s length between him and it, then the decree will overtake him and he will do the deeds of the people of Hell and thus enter Hell. And a man may do the deeds of the people of Hell until there is no more than a forearm’s length between him and it, then the decree will overtake him and he will do finally the deeds of the people of Paradise and thus enter Paradise.

Everyone will be rewarded or punished according to his deeds — if they are good then he will be rewarded, and if they are bad then he will be punished.

Tafsir Ibn Kathir, 23:13

Notice that if Islamic Fate is true, then this means that ultimately Allah is responsible for every evil deed done by every evil human, thus showing Allah is evil, and therefore Satan.

As we do have free will and can choose to do good or evil, then Islamic Fate is incoherent nonsense, as I’ve shown in Islamic Fate? and so, Allah is imaginary and false. This also means that Islamic Justice, Allah rewarding or punishing the good or evil, is also incoherent, as it opposes Islamic Fate. Either way, this incoherence in Islam shows Islam is false. Just to reiterate, Islamic Justice opposes Islamic Fate, neither can be true and because one is false, the other is false too, showing Islam, Allah, Muhammad and Koran are false.

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