Koran 25:45-47

25:45 Have you not considered your Lord – how He extends the shadow, and if He willed, He could have made it stationary?

Then We made the sun for it an indication.

46 Then We hold it in hand for a brief grasp.

47 And it is He who has made the night for you as clothing and sleep [a means for] rest and has made the day a resurrection.

Koran 25:45-47

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.

Notice the difference in the speaker: “He extends the shadow” and then: “We hold it in hand for a brief grasp” – all lies by Muhammad as Allah and “We” the demon.

Muhammad asks a rhetorical question which is an obvious mistake, as a real god does not need rhetorical questions. For example, with a fire, obviously created by humans:

A fire with humans casting shadows, not Allah.

The humans around it are obviously casting shadows, blocking the fire’s light. None of this requires Allah to intercede. The Sun is like a very large fire, a long way away, emitting light like a bonfire, with humans casting shadows in the Sun’s light. Again, nothing requires Allah’s intervention.

But, infidel, what about the light in the sky? Rayleigh scattering.

But, Infidel, the light from the Moon? Reflected light from our Sun.

Muhammad makes a rhetorical question that is supposed to have an obvious answer, but in fact, shows his ignorance: “Have you not considered your Lord – how He extends the shadow, and if He willed, He could have made it stationary?” Consider the case of the people around the fire. The shape of their shapes is under the control of the people around the fire. They can change their position around the fire changing the direction of their shadow. They can stand up or sit down, extending or shortening their shadow. They can even spread their arms, making a sign of the cross, contradicting Islam and showing the power of Christianity over Islam.

In Indonesia, there’s Wayang, “wherein a dramatic story is told through shadows thrown by puppets and sometimes combined with human characters.” And of course, with control of artificial light, cameras, and movies we have the motion picture industry. Film: “Films were recorded onto celluloid film through a photochemical process and then shown through a movie projector onto a large screen.” This shows the power of humans over light and shadow, showing that we know more about this than ignorant and stupid Muhammad and his false god.

Muhammad gets it wrong: “Then We made the sun for it an indication.” Instead, the Sun is the source of all sunlight in the solar system, including the light reflected from the Moon at night.

There’s a translation issue with: “46 Then We hold it in hand for a brief grasp.” In Tafsir Ibn Kathir, 25:45, the scholars have:

46 Then We withdraw it towards Ourselves — a gradual withdrawal.

Tafsir Ibn Kathir, 25:45

This refers to shadows extending to the horizon as the Sun sets. Notice the language, which shows that Allah is a god of the Night (and Moon), not the Day.

Muhammad continues to lie:

And it is He who has made the night for you as clothing and sleep [a means for] rest and has made the day a resurrection.

Koran 25:47

Muhammad himself contradicts this with his occasions of staying up all night, screaming, which disturbed the Quraysh, they complained and Muhammad was forced to be quiet. It’s also contradicted by Muhammad’s demand that Muslims pray at night. If Muslims have to get up from sleep, pray, and then go back to sleep, is that two “resurrections” in one night? Obviously, Muhammad didn’t understand sleep and thought that it was Allah taking “souls” for sleep. I’ve written before about this, for more, see: Koran 6:60-62.

Naturally, the animals do not obey Muhammad pretending to be Allah. Night animals run around, hunting for prey, etc, at night. Zoos that have small night animals often shift their day/night rhythm directly, showing their nighttime behaviour during the visitor’s day. This shows that humans contradict Allah’s imaginary control over animals, thus showing Allah does NOT control animals, and thus Allah is false.

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