Lying for God

And here is the ones I referenced:

اللَّهُ نُورُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ ۚ مَثَلُ نُورِهِ كَمِشْكَاةٍ فِيهَا مِصْبَاحٌ ۖ الْمِصْبَاحُ فِي زُجَاجَةٍ ۖ الزُّجَاجَةُ كَأَنَّهَا كَوْكَبٌ دُرِّيٌّ يُوقَدُ مِنْ شَجَرَةٍ مُبَارَكَةٍ زَيْتُونَةٍ لَا شَرْقِيَّةٍ وَلَا غَرْبِيَّةٍ يَكَادُ زَيْتُهَا يُضِيءُ وَلَوْ لَمْ تَمْسَسْهُ نَارٌ ۚ نُورٌ عَلَىٰ نُورٍ ۗ يَهْدِي اللَّهُ لِنُورِهِ مَنْ يَشَاءُ ۚ وَيَضْرِبُ اللَّهُ الْأَمْثَالَ لِلنَّاسِ ۗ وَاللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمٌ {35}
[Shakir 24:35] Allah is the light of the heavens and the earth; a likeness of His light is as a niche in which is a lamp, the lamp is in a glass, (and) the glass is as it were a brightly shining star, lit from a blessed olive-tree, neither eastern nor western, the oil whereof almost gives light though fire touch it not-- light upon light-- Allah guides to His light whom He pleases, and Allah sets forth parables for men, and Allah is Cognizant of all things.
[Pickthal 24:35] Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The similitude of His light is as a niche wherein is a lamp. The lamp is in a glass. The glass is as it were a shining star. (This lamp is) kindled from a blessed tree, an olive neither of the East nor of the West, whose oil would almost glow forth (of itself) though no fire touched it. Light upon light. Allah guideth unto His light whom He will. And Allah speaketh to mankind in allegories, for Allah is Knower of all things.
[Yusufali 24:35] Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The Parable of His Light is as if there were a Niche and within it a Lamp: the Lamp enclosed in Glass: the glass as it were a brilliant star: Lit from a blessed Tree, an Olive, neither of the east nor of the west, whose oil is well-nigh luminous, though fire scarce touched it: Light upon Light! Allah doth guide whom He will to His Light: Allah doth set forth Parables for men: and Allah doth know all things.

Sahih International: [It is] He who made for you from the green tree, fire, and then from it you ignite.

Pickthall: Who hath appointed for you fire from the green tree, and behold! ye kindle from it.

Yusuf Ali: "The same Who produces for you fire out of the green tree, when behold! ye kindle therewith (your own fires)!

Shakir: He Who has made for you the fire (to burn) from the green tree, so that with it you kindle (fire).

Muhammad Sarwar: He has created fire for you out of the green tree from which you can kindle other fires.

Mohsin Khan: He, Who produces for you fire out of the green tree, when behold! You kindle therewith.

Arberry: who has made for you out of the green tree fire and lo, from it you kindle.'




And a tree (olive) that springs forth from Mount Sinai, that grows (produces) oil, and (it is a) relish for eaters.* (Surat al-Mu’minun (The Believers):20).



By the figs, and the olives. By Mount of Sinai. And this city of security. *(Surat at-Tin (The Fig): 1-3)



And there is many verses. Like "it's not for you to make it's tree"

And other verses like "do not approach this tree"... and Iblis promising eternality and exaltdness through it.

No. You said that the "tree" mentioned in Moses's story is not actually a tree.
My reply to you was "no; it is a tree".
Then I provided you with links from both "Sunni and Shiite" interpretations, some are as ancient as 1000 years.

But you replied to me with what is above.
Obviously you are not reading what I'm writing because we all know what you're here for. So please; if you have a reply worthy of a scholar; provide it.
