Again you assume people were dumb or Mo sucked at descriptions

Actually it's not logically impossible if Mo was any good at his job as a prophet
Quote:And the hadith refers specifically to the fact that people will compete in building higher and higher buildings in a specific area
It's not specific if he were being specific there was a shit ton of other far more accurate ways and again competing to build grand structures wasn't new
Quote: -what nobody had any damned clue about. Back then
False
Quote:, they usually competed about conquering the largest lands, or winning poetry challenges.
Competing over tall buildings was done the ancient world and what says dominance what says power ,wealth , and populous like a grand structure to immortalized yourself that's pierces the sky . That ecilipese your rivals and forebears and projects your power far and wide . That's something any king or warlord could appreciate and is seen throughout history
Quote: I really don't know what Muhammad could've said more to make this prophecy clearer to you, while remaining intelligible to people hearing him back then.
Then your not very bright

Humans are NOT the most important species on this planet. We are just one of billions of species. We are not even the only species that has learned to use tools.
Octopi are pretty fucking smart too.
https://www.nationalgeographic.com/news/...elligence/
And considering cockroaches outnumber humans. And have been around longer than the Koran/bible/torah, Vedas ect ect ect... Everytime I try to kill one in my house, seeing it freeze feet away, then dart like a baseball player, hockey player, NFL running back, NBA player, while I do get some, far more get away.
I forgot what nature show I saw it on, but the host said it best, "Humans are good at being humans, but we are not good at being penguins".... ect ect ect... meaning any other life.
What does it mean to be able to build Skyscrapers, or to even write Shakespeare, if we are not smart enough to accept we are an invasive species? The species causing the most damage to life right now are humans.
I value the good in humanity, I always will. And of course I would not want to go back to the days before modern medicine or modern communication. But we are the same species that has managed to create so much plastic, there is a giant island of pollution bigger than the state of Texas floating in our oceans.
As smart as our species is, we are a victim of our own success at the same time.

Klor dwells under the strange notion that using grand buildings to compete or project power to rivals isn't ancient . Or even intuitive .

So to sum up
Mo wasn't specific saying people or nations will build grand structures to compete with one another for power, prestige, etc etc is ancient and very attuned to human nature . None the things listed are exclusive to the region he lived nor is the idea that arabs would embrace the aforementioned principle of building outlandish . And if Mo was able see the future there is no reason he couldn't have been more precise on things like location arabs knew about fucking locations and navigation .What people were wearing as it wasn't that different then to now . No reason he could not have given or city names . Hell even the old testament wasn't that vague or lazy .Hell Mo didn't even bother to say the towers were made of metal and glass which would have really stood out . People are smart they can understand more than Klor thinks .

What's wrong with the Quran?
Follow it, and don't follow the Hadith:
https://abuaminaelias.com/dailyhadithonl...oned-hajj/
See what I mean?
The Quran has the answer, not the Hadiths.

The Hadith gives mixed messages.
Gog and Magog -according to the Hadith- are the end of the signs signifying the advent of judgement day.
But the Quran clearly -and explicitly- says that judgement day comes instantly and surprisingly.
