What independent evidence is there to corroborate this?Well I've mentioned the numerous miracles of the Qur'an. But first off I know we as humans were created by someone who is obviously a higher being than we are. So with just for example some of the astronomical knowledge of our universe, listed in the Qur'an. Whoever's words these are placed in a scripture in the 7th century, when telescopes, satellites, computers etc didn't yet exist, and these words describe exactly what is happening in our universe today, over 1,400 years later, which we can and have verified and confirmed as true due to our technology, This tells me that someone, who put these words together is the One who created us all. So He is the One, alone I worship. See Allah gives us free will to believe and accept His guidance or disbelieve and reject Him. But with His mercy He doesn't just say "believe in my word" He also gives us many examples that support and prove His word as true, that we as people can verify even further than people before our time. Same thing when telescopes and microscopes were invented before our time. People used these inventions and were able to see that whoever put the Qur'an into effect knew exactly what they were talking about. And in the 7th century, when no human had this knowledge, this word could only come from our creator Allah Almighty
You see, sheed, your problem is the same one faced by chritians, shintos, followers of traditional Ojibwe beliefs and all other religious followers. You make truth claims without showing supporting evidence, and that is why when I say your religious claims are baseless assertions, I am correct.
Circular reasoning. Do you just regurgitate crap you like, or do you actually read our posts at all?
CIRCULAR REASONING, is what every religion does. Everyone points to their holy writings and so what. Try debating a Christian or Jew or Hindu sometime. I bet they can point to "miracles" too.
"The book I like says"...... Yes and so what? Get in line take a number.
