Ah, not this again. You can't compose something like the Qur'an while having a seizure, nor in the postictal period, because that's what the prophet did, assuming your claim is true.

Quote : "Patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) often have a brief postictal state characterized by confusion and disorientation.".
How can anyone in a state of disorientation come up with the most brilliant piece of Arabic literature of all time ? I'll wait for the answer, so you can help Muslims out of their delusion.
Because of this, modern orientalist scholars of Islam (Nöldeke, Montgomery Watt, to name a few) reject this diagnosis. The prophet PBUH's revelations are truly a mystery, and they are overall better explained by appeal to a supernatural cause.
I stand by my claim that I made almost 4 years ago -- seizures are episodic. When such things were not well understood, all manner of embellishments took place.
