Quote:Why is Quran mentioning that replacement of skin is necessary for them to feel penalty?
This verse says:
“as often as their SKINS are ROASTED THROUGH, We shall change them for FRESH SKINS, that they may TASTE THE PENALTY”.
Is not that detail enough to give a clear understand?
1) The quran is not mentioning that it is NECESSARY, it says that they may taste the penalty.
If I say I am opening a door so that I may leave the house, I am not saying that it is essential, needed to be done so that I can leave my house.
If I say it is necessary for me to open a door in order to leave the house I'm saying that it is essential, needed to be done.
I am opening a door so that I may leave my house, but I may also smash through a window and get out that way, I might climb through a hole in the wall or dig a tunnel out of the house, I MAY do many things in order to leave the house.
So the quran is giving no specific information, it is basically saying its going to burn the skin repeatedly as a form of punishment. So that they may feel the torment.
The quran is not saying anything about what is necessary in order to feel pain.
The only information given is that burning skin causes pain.
2) As we already discussed this is just one of the many methods people could feel punishment, other organs also have pain receptors.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
