Koran 24:62

The believers are only those who believe in Allah and His Messenger and, when they are [meeting] with him for a matter of common interest, do not depart until they have asked his permission.

Indeed, those who ask your permission, [O Muhammad] – those are the ones who believe in Allah and His Messenger.

So when they ask your permission for something of their affairs, then give permission to whom you will among them and ask forgiveness for them of Allah.

Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.

Koran 24:62

Surely the believers are only those who believe in Allah, not in the shirk or sin of believing in Muhammad the dead messenger from 1400 years ago?

And why is an instruction for Muhammad, from Muhammad pretending to be Allah, immediately following this verse? Surely they should be separate, like:

24:62 verse 1

The believers are only those who believe in Allah and His Messenger and, when they are [meeting] with him for a matter of common interest, do not depart until they have asked his permission.

Verse 2

Indeed, those who ask your permission, [O Muhammad] – those are the ones who believe in Allah and His Messenger. So when they ask your permission for something of their affairs, then give permission to whom you will among them and ask forgiveness for them of Allah. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.

Koran 24:62

This verse applies to Muhammad’s believers and Muhammad, not to Muslims. So why is it in “Allah’s” perfect Qur’an?

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