Koran 24:1-10

24:1 [This is] a surah which We have sent down and made [that within it] obligatory and revealed therein verses of clear evidence that you might remember.

2 The [unmarried] woman or [unmarried] man found guilty of sexual intercourse – lash each one of them with a hundred lashes, and do not be taken by pity for them in the religion of Allah, if you should believe in Allah and the Last Day. And let a group of the believers witness their punishment.

3 The fornicator does not marry except a [female] fornicator or polytheist, and none marries her except a fornicator or a polytheist, and that has been made unlawful to the believers.

4 And those who accuse chaste women and then do not produce four witnesses – lash them with eighty lashes and do not accept from them testimony ever after. And those are the defiantly disobedient, 5 Except for those who repent thereafter and reform, for indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.

6 And those who accuse their wives [of adultery] and have no witnesses except themselves – then the witness of one of them [shall be] four testimonies [swearing] by Allah that indeed, he is of the truthful. 7 And the fifth [oath will be] that the curse of Allah be upon him if he should be among the liars.

8 But it will prevent punishment from her if she gives four testimonies [swearing] by Allah that indeed, he is of the liars. 9 And the fifth [oath will be] that the wrath of Allah be upon her if he was of the truthful.

10 And if not for the favor of Allah upon you and His mercy… and because Allah is Accepting of repentance and Wise.

Koran 24:1-10

This chapter abrogates Muhammad’s earlier passage on adultery way back in Koran 4:15-16. Also, there’s more in Koran 4:25 and Koran 5:41-44 about the Jews and adultery, in Koran 6:151 which is about Muhammad being UNABLE to forbid adultery.

Muhammad commits shirk with: “We”, “Us” or “Our”, placing Allah as a companion to himself, showing that Allah is incoherent, imaginary, and fictional, and so Islam is incoherent with monotheism, thus Islam is contradictory 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.

Notice Muhammad’s deliberate ignorance of the best witness of all, Allah. The demand by Muhammad of 4 Muslim witnesses shows that Muhammad knows that Allah is not a witness. Notice also the justice of Muhammad, swift, violent, and worse, immediate. Compared with the justice of Allah, it is nonexistent, never and nothing happens.

Muhammad is unable to confirm the testimony of the witnesses with Allah. Thus Allah is imaginary, false, merely a threat to the Muslims, who have to be relied upon to be honest when they’re told to lie for Islam.

And worse, where’s Islamic Fate in all this? These Muslims demonstrate that they make choices, they choose to commit adultery or not, Muslim witnesses choose to witness or not, and Allah, the greatest witness, is shown to be unavailable. Muhammad has to threaten all the Muslims to tell the truth, instead of simply telling the truth from Allah of what has happened.

Notice that Allah, contrary to Muhammad’s earlier assertions, is not involved in this at all with “creating” new baby Muslims. Surely if Allah creates new baby Muslims, then why are Muslims, humans, concerned about adultery? Surely Allah is smart enough not to give baby Muslims to an adulterous couple? That way the marriage of a Muslim couple is preserved, and there’s no incentive for the husband or wife to stray. And if Allah controls our thoughts and feelings, then there’s no desire for others, from husband or wife.

Note also the incoherence of Muhammad, produce four witnesses, and then a fifth oath needs to be sworn to invoke Allah for a non-existent punishment. Shouldn’t Allah be invoked first to reveal the truth instead?

Notice the Roman punishment of lashing, instead of the Jewish punishment of stoning.

The requirement for Muslims to lie about Islam shows up in all their lives, peer pressure, and lying are “better” than the truth-telling of Judaism and Christianity. Violence has to be used, instead of trust. No justice, just violence. Such evil.

Adultery happens, but Allah doesn’t control it or anything in our lives, because Allah is imaginary, Muhammad is dead, Islam is false and the Koran is nonsense and lies.

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