Christian/Muslim ThreadsWhy does Allah use the word We to refer to HimseFor the sake of our English speaking spectators. Does "ONE" in 2:163 and 112:1 mean the same same ? No. In English yes, but in the original language of the Quran, No. How ? In 2:163 which is repeated many times through out the Quran, perhaps hundreds of times, the Arabic word used for "ONE" is "waahid". In 112:1 the Arabic word for "ONE" is "ahad" in which both arabic words are derived from the same root. What is the significant difference between these two words? THe significance of waahid means 1 in number that also denotes the first and the begining ~ awwal. The significance of Ahad means One that is indivisable and absolute in oneness. Both verses discribe Allah's oneness which leave no room for ambiguity. On the other hand, being that Christians may claim they worship ONE ~ waahid G-D that is a TRIUNE G-D as they believe they cannot claim their TRIUNE G-D ~ the man Jesus whom they worship ~ to be "Ahad" in which the word is unapplicable and contradictory to their monotheistic beliefs. (Note: We are only addressing Trinitarian Christian, as all Christian no not believe in the Trinity.) |
