Koran 59:1-5

59:1 Whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth exalts Allah, and He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.

2 It is He who expelled the ones who disbelieved among the People of the Scripture from their homes at the first gathering.

You did not think they would leave, and they thought that their fortresses would protect them from Allah; but [the decree of] Allah came upon them from where they had not expected, and He cast terror into their hearts [so] they destroyed their houses by their [own] hands and the hands of the believers.

So take warning, O people of vision.

3 And if not that Allah had decreed for them evacuation, He would have punished them in [this] world, and for them in the Hereafter is the punishment of the Fire.

4 That is because they opposed Allah and His Messenger.

And whoever opposes Allah – then indeed, Allah is severe in penalty.

5 Whatever you have cut down of [their] palm trees or left standing on their trunks – it was by permission of Allah and so He would disgrace the defiantly disobedient.

Koran 59:1-5
Nothing exalts Allah.

Muhammad claims that “Whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth exalts Allah”, yet nothing and no one does this. Our Sun, our Earth, our Moon, our planets, moons, rings, comets and asteroids, none exalt Allah. Nothing in the universe exalts Allah. No animals, birds or insects exalt Allah. At best, only Muslims exalt Allah, and they actually exalt Muhammad, Muhammad as Allah. The rest of the human population doesn’t know how to exalt Allah, and Allah has failed to make this known for 1400 years, due to being dead and dust with Muhammad, in the grave. The photo shows a bonfire, with the shadows that supposedly exalt Allah, going in all directions. For more, read Shadow Prostration.

Muhammad continues, boasting about Allah: “and He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.” Yet, these are supposed to be the words of Allah, not Muhammad boasting about Allah. Thus, this shows that Allah is not wise in allowing Muhammad to boast, in what are supposedly the words of Allah, and Allah is weak, instead of “Exalted in Might”, for letting Muhammad put his own words into Muhammad’s Koran, instead of Allah’s words.

“…they destroyed their houses by their [own] hands…”

In the second verse, Muhammad gives credit to Allah, for the poor decisions of the Jews and of Muhammad. Check out this quote from the tafsir:

When the Messenger of Allah migrated to Al-Madinah, he made a peace treaty with the Jews stipulating that he would not fight them and they would not fight him. They soon betrayed the treaty that they made with Allah’s Messenger. Therefore, Allah sent His torment down on them; it can never be averted, and His appointed destiny touched them; it can never be resisted. The Prophet forced them to evacuate and abandon their fortified forts that Muslims did not think they would ever control. The Jews thought that their fortifications will save them from Allah’s torment, but they did not help them against Allah in the least. Then, that which they did not expect came to them from Allah, and Allah’s Messenger forced them to leave Al-Madinah.

Tafsir Ibn Kathir, 59:1

The tafsir mentions a “torment” from Allah – this is supposed to be an explanation for what the translations have as: “but [the decree of] Allah came upon them”. Obviously, this is unclear, and therefore, this verse isn’t the perfect words of Allah or Jibril, but rather from Muhammad or perhaps a scribe. Perhaps it was disease or dysentery that caused the Jews to surrender and leave, as this is common in sieges?

Three Heads of Muhammad, Moon (Allah), Child, Demon

In verse 3, Muhammad says: “And if not that Allah had decreed for them evacuation, He would have punished them in [this] world, and for them in the Hereafter is the punishment of the Fire.” Yet, in the tafsir:

The Prophet allowed them to evacuate their forts and take whatever their camels could carry. They destroyed the property that they could not carry.

Tafsir Ibn Kathir, 59:1

How did Allah communicate with the Jews to tell them of his decree? The tafsir admits: “The Prophet allowed them”. This directly shows that Allah is within Muhammad, an alternative personality of Muhammad or a demon pretending. For more, read Muhammad the Three.

But, Infidel, it was Jibril! How did Jibril whisper to all the Jews? Recall, that the tafsir admits: “The Prophet allowed them.

The Prophet left Bani Qurayzah and went back to Bani An-Nadir with his forces and fought them until they agreed to surrender in return for safe passage out of Al-Madinah. Bani An-Nadir evacuated Al-Madinah and took with them all whatever their camels could carry from their furniture, including even the wood and the doors to their houses.

Tafsir Ibn Kathir, 59:1

Again, the tafsir confirms that Allah is Muhammad. When Allah communicates with the Jews, that’s actually Muhammad as Allah doing that.

No Allah
No Muhammad

Verse 4 confirms: “That is because they opposed Allah and His Messenger.” They opposed Muhammad, who had Allah inside him.

Dates, dried

Verse 5 confirms that Muhammad’s forces cut some of the date trees – probably this was to force the Jews out, so that their lands would be devastated and they would be ruined. This confirms that when Muslims make war, they’re allowed to cut down trees to ruin an enemy.

The Messenger ordered their date trees be cut down and burned. The Jews heralded at the Prophet, “O Muhammad! You used to forbid mischief in the earth and blame those who did it. Why is it that you had the date trees cut down and burned?”

Tafsir Ibn Kathir, 59:1

That must have stung and shamed Muhammad even more, to have the Jews point out that he, Muhammad, was contradicting the supposed words of Allah, so showing he was a hypocrite and false prophet.

Also, notice how much the translation differs from the hadith about the incident:

The Messenger of Allah ordered burning and cutting down the date palms of Banu An-Nadir, and that place was called Al-Buwairah.

So Allah revealed: “What you cut down of the Linah, or you left of them standing on their trunks, it was by the leave of Allah, and in order that He might disgrace the rebellious.”

Jami` at-Tirmidhi 3302

Compare with verse 5:

Whatever you have cut down of [their] palm trees or left standing on their trunks – it was by permission of Allah and so He would disgrace the defiantly disobedient.

Koran 59:5

Verse 5 shows that this verse is specifically to ease the concerns of the Muslims who cut down the date trees and those Muslims who didn’t cut down the date trees. Thus, this verse is specifically for Muhammad’s Muslims of his time at this siege, a very local reference, so showing the Koran comes from Muhammad (and friends), not from a real god.

Planting seeds – something that Islam discourages

Notice that nothing was done to restore the land. It’s as if Muhammad expected Allah to replant these date palm trees, when, of course, it’s humans who plant and do not cut down or burn date trees to produce dates to eat later. This shows that Allah has no power and didn’t create or maintain anything.

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