Koran 46:17-20

46:17 But one who says to his parents, “Uff to you; do you promise me that I will be brought forth [from the earth] when generations before me have already passed on [into oblivion]?”

while they call to Allah for help [and to their son], “Woe to you! Believe! Indeed, the promise of Allah is truth.”

But he says, “This is not but legends of the former peoples” –

18 Those are the ones upon whom the word [i.e., decree] has come into effect, [who will be] among nations which had passed on before them of jinn and men. Indeed, they [all] were losers.

19 And for all there are degrees [of reward and punishment] for what they have done, and [it is] so that He may fully compensate them for their deeds, and they will not be wronged.

20 And the Day those who disbelieved are exposed to the Fire [it will be said], “You exhausted your pleasures during your worldly life and enjoyed them, so this Day you will be awarded the punishment of [extreme] humiliation because you were arrogant upon the earth without right and because you were defiantly disobedient.”

Koran 46:17-20

Muhammad, in his Koran, addresses a sentence, verse, or passage to “Anonymous They”, with “they”, “them”, “he”, “your”, “the people”, and so on, without naming them. For more, read Anonymous They.

Muhammad includes the imperfect words of imperfect others, an interlocutor who is only in Muhammad’s mind, instead of the perfect words of the perfect Qur’an from perfect Allah. This means that Muhammad’s recitation, Muhammad’s Koran, is not from Allah, which means Allah, Muhammad, Islamic doctrine, Islam, and Koran are incoherent and false.

Notice how the first sentence is incomplete. I expect better.

Or it could simply be a translation issue that Allah in his pride hasn’t yet noticed and fixed. Either way, this shows an imperfection that shouldn’t be here, thus showing the Koran is imperfect, and thus not the words of Allah, thus Allah is imaginary, fictional, and false.

Also notice how there’s a local idiom: “Uff to you;”, locking this passage to Muhammad’s time and place, his context, his language, Classical Arabic, and the Quraysh culture. Worse, this local idiom is repeated from earlier passages:

And your Lord has decreed that you not worship except Him, and to parents, good treatment. Whether one or both of them reach old age [while] with you, say not to them [so much as], “uff,” and do not repel them but speak to them a noble word.

Koran 17:23

For more, see: Koran 17:23-24.

Uff to you and to what you worship instead of Allah. Then will you not use reason?”

Koran 21:67

For more, see: Koran 21:51-71.

For more, see: Uff, uff, uff!

Compare with the Torah and Bible with:

Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you.

NIV Exodus 20:12

Notice the magic number of three again? Weird how the Trinity plays upon Muhammad’s mind, causing him to make these mistakes.

Note the phrase: “This is not but legends of the former peoples”. This is a common criticism of Muhammad and his stories.

Muhammad mentions nations of “Jinn” – they’re imaginary beings. There has been no nation of Jinn that has “passed on”. Unless, of course, by “Jinn”, Muhammad means black Africans, their peoples and nations? For more, see: Jinn?

Naturally, Muhammad threatens with the Day, Muhammad’s stick, which is entirely imaginary, and is there to get Muslims to obey, not Allah, but Muhammad.

Muhammad accidentally reveals he’s a false prophet, for a false god, Allah, for a false religion, Islam, without even a false book, Koran.

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