Qur’an 80:1-16

A Qur’an Like It.

Here’s the Sahih International translation:

80:1 He [i.e., the Prophet (ﷺ) ] frowned and turned away

2 Because there came to him the blind man, [interrupting].

3 But what would make you perceive, [O Muḥammad], that perhaps he might be purified

4 Or be reminded and the remembrance would benefit him?

5 As for he who thinks himself without need,

6 To him you give attention.

7 And not upon you [is any blame] if he will not be purified.

8 But as for he who came to you striving [for knowledge]

9 While he fears [Allāh],

10 From him you are distracted.

11 No! Indeed, they [i.e., these verses] are a reminder;

12 So whoever wills may remember it.

13 [It is recorded] in honored sheets,

14 Exalted and purified,

15 [Carried] by the hands of messenger-angels,

16 Noble and dutiful.

Koran 80:1-16

Here’s my improved version:

80:1 He frowned and turned away

2 Because there came to him the blind man,

3 But what would make you perceive, that perhaps he might be purified

4 Or be reminded and the remembrance would benefit him?

5 As for he who thinks himself without need,

6 To him you give attention.

7 And not upon you if he will not be purified.

8 But as for he who came to you striving

9 While he fears

10 From him you are distracted.

11 No! Indeed, they are a reminder;

12 So whoever wills may remember it.

13 in honored sheets,

14 Exalted and purified,

15 by scribes [Pickthall translation]

16 Noble and dutiful.

Removing the translator additions shows Muhammad is trying to justify his own foolish actions to himself.

Qur’an 80:1-16

As I’ve produced a better verse than Muhammad, this shows Muhammad is Allah, Allah is Muhammad, the Koran comes from Muhammad (and friends), and Islam is false.
