God can't forgive sins without exceptions with exceptions.
If you know the way English works and synonyms then you'd 100% understand this and this isn't to insult you because I know you don't speak English as a first language so you'll just have to trust me that it is a contradiction in English to say "All sins are forgiven" And then to say "This one sin isn't forgiven." It doesn't matter about which part of the book it's in, or if you're taking the book as a whole or anything like that.
The only time your argument might work in English is if someone said something like "All the pies were tasty except this one." Then you're immediately clarifying the exception in relation to the word "All" in the same sentence.
So this is either to do with some kind of language barrier or you're purposefully misunderstanding the way exceptions and contradictions work.
Then; associating other Gods with Allah is not a sin. It was categorized to be something else; far far more terrible than a sin:
Quote:https://quran.com/31/13?translations=
Sahih International
Sura 31, The Quran:
(13) And [mention, O Muhammad], when Luqman said to his son while he was instructing him, "O my son, do not associate [anything] with Allah . Indeed, association [with him] is great injustice."
It's crossing the sin to another category far worse; and that is " great injustice ".
I apologize, but I withdraw my previous explanation, I forgot about this verse. If we put this into the equation, we'll understand that all sins are forgiven, but a " great injustice " would never be forgiven.
Ok and just out of curiosity do you now think that "All sins are forgiven" and "there is a sin that isn't forgiven" is a contradiction now?
If so do you find it odd that your mind blocked out what the definition of the word "all" means and how it's used in English in order for you to continue believing the quran has no contradictions?
Because I don't actually believe I was teaching you the definition of the word "all" when I posted it there, I think you already knew it, but you just didn't want to know it.
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.
