Muslim Apologists Concerned About The Growing Response To So-Called Scientific Evidences For The Qur’an

2 Thessalonians 2:9-10, “The coming of the [lawless one] is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.”

Qur’an Sura 3:54, “… Allah is the best of the deceivers.”

By David Wood, Answering Muslims – “Some Muslims will say anything in defense of Islam, and some people are so gullible that they convert to Islam after hearing a load of outright deception.

For the past few decades, Muslims have been relying heavily on so-called ‘scientific evidences’ for the divine inspiration of the Qur’an. The claim is that, because the Qur’an contains numerous scientifically accurate statements that couldn’t have been known by Muhammad, the Qur’an must be the Word of Allah.

The problem is that the Qur’an doesn’t contain a single scientifically accurate statement that couldn’t have been known by Muhammad. Indeed, the Qur’an contains precisely the sort of nonsensical material we would expect from a seventh-century illiterate caravan trader.

For instance, the Qur’an claims that the sun sets in a muddy pool (18:86), that semen is formed between the backbone and ribs (86:6-7), that the earth is flat (88:20), that there are seven earths (65:12), that the sun orbits the earth (36:38-40), that human embryos are blood-clots (22:5), that the sky would fall on the earth if Allah didn’t hold it up (22:65), and that stars are missiles that Allah uses to shoot demons who try to sneak into heaven (37:6-10; 67:5).

Some critics of Islam are catching on to the deceptive tactics of certain Muslim apologists, and have begun correcting the propaganda. Muslim apologists like Dawahman and Hamza Tzortzis are concerned:
