Koran 39:49-52

39:49 And when adversity touches man, he calls upon Us; then when We bestow on him a favor from Us, he says, “I have only been given it because of [my] knowledge.”

Rather, it is a trial, but most of them do not know.

50 Those before them had already said it, but they were not availed by what they used to earn.

51 And the evil consequences of what they earned struck them. And those who have wronged of these [people] will be struck [i.e., afflicted] by the evil consequences of what they earned; and they will not cause failure.

52 Do they not know that Allah extends provision for whom He wills and restricts [it]? Indeed in that are signs for a people who believe.

Koran 39:49-52

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 claims that “when adversity touches man, he calls upon Us” – Note the sexism. What about women who get touched by adversity, like a stillbirth or who are unable to get pregnant? Obviously, Muhammad’s sexism is unfair, making Allah unjust, which is incoherent with Allah’s justice, so Allah, Muhammad, Islam and the Koran are false.

Muhammad claims that Allah (or “We”) bestows a favour only upon men. Again, note the sexism. What about the married woman who prays for a boy, and gets a boy in an easy childbirth? That surely seems like a favour from Allah, right? Yet, nothing about that from Muhammad.

Plus, what about children? What about the child born to a Christian or Jewish or even atheist family, surely that’s a favour of Allah right? While being born to a Muslim family with no love, that would be a lack of favour?

But, Infidel, it’s better to be Muslim! Are you sure, what if you were born as an Arab in the same tribe as Muhammad (whatever that is), surely that’s a favour? Or as a Muslim child of black African Muslim parents who have been bred to produce you as a black slave for Muslims, forever enslaved to labour for free? Surely that’s a disfavour?

But worse, Muhammad is unable to show what favours Allah provides. I’ve had to guess what could be favours of Allah and what is a restriction? of favours of Allah. This is similar to the objection from the Quraysh or Nabatean man, who Muhammad is unable to name, with: “I have only been given it because of [my] knowledge.” The favours which Muhammad earlier claimed are from Allah, are, in many cases, from the knowledge of the farmer or herder, crafter, etc. For example, the farmer knows how to plant seeds, to grow crops, the herder knows where to go, to feed and care for their herds, and the crafter knows how to craft various things.

But, Infidel, the rain! Uh huh, which falls for all people in a location, Muslim, atheist, etc.

There is no favour from Allah. Allah is a blind, stone idol, of no power, who only talks to Muhammad, when Muhammad forgets that it’s supposed to be his demon, Jibril, talking to him instead.

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