Refuting Islam

🧠 15 Advanced Debate Questions Muslims Can’t Answer –

Part 3

Where theology, law, and logic destroy Islam from the inside

📘 Introduction

This isn’t for surface-level Dawah. This is for the ones who bring:

Arabic terms,
Ashari/Maturidi theology,
Usul al-Fiqh technicalities,
Tafsir footnotes.

This wave meets them on their turf — and buries them in their own material.

❓ 1. How can the Quran be uncreated if it contains temporal events and speech?

Islam teaches:

The Quran is eternal, uncreated (per Sunni Aqidah).
But it says things like:
“We will [future tense] punish the disbelievers...”
“When you meet the unbelievers in battle...”

📌 Trap: If it speaks of time-bound events, it’s not eternal.
If it is eternal, then time exists in the divine essence — a contradiction in Islamic theology.

❓ 2. If Allah has no likeness, why does He have a face, eyes, hands, and shin?

Scriptural affirmations:

Face – Quran 55:27
Hands – Quran 38:75
Eyes – Quran 52:48
Shin – Quran 68:42

📌 Trap: Either these are literal (which makes Allah physical), or metaphorical (which violates the claim that Allah cannot be likened to creation).

This is the tashbih vs. ta’wil contradiction.

❓ 3. How can the Quran claim to be free of contradictions while contradicting itself repeatedly?

Quran 4:82 – “Had it been from other than Allah, they would have found much contradiction in it.”

Then we get:

Creation contradictions – clot vs. blood vs. dust vs. sperm
Peace vs. Jihad – 2:256 vs. 9:5
Who was first Muslim? – Moses? Abraham? Muhammad? (26:51, 6:14, 39:12)

📌 Conclusion: The Quran fails its own divine test.

❓ 4. How is Allah “most merciful” while threatening eternal torture for disbelief?

Quran 4:56, 98:6 – Skin-burning, Hellfire, etc.
Quran 7:156 – “My mercy encompasses all things.”

📌 Trap: Mercy and eternal torture for finite disbelief cannot coexist.

Either Allah is not merciful, or His justice is disproportionate — both fatal.

❓ 5. If Islam is universal, why did Allah send different laws to different nations?

Muslims claim all prophets were Muslims, yet:

Moses had Mosaic Law,
Jesus had the Gospel,
Muhammad brought Sharia.

📌 Trap: Why would an eternal, perfect God need to change the rules across time?

This exposes progressive revelation contradictions in Islam.

❓ 6. How can the Quran deny the crucifixion but confirm the Gospel?

Quran 4:157 – Jesus wasn’t crucified.
Quran 5:46–47 – Christians are to judge by the Gospel.

📌 Trap: The Gospel affirms the crucifixion.
Denying it = denying the very text Allah told Christians to follow.

❓ 7. If Muhammad is the final prophet, why did he leave Islam dependent on Hadith?

Quran alone is insufficient for prayer, fasting, or zakat details.
Yet Hadith were compiled 100–200 years later.

📌 Trap: A prophet who completes the message shouldn’t leave followers guessing.
Either the Quran is insufficient, or Hadith are unauthoritative. You can't have both.

❓ 8. If Allah is sovereign, why do humans have moral responsibility?

Islam says:

Everything is decreed by Allah (Qadar).
Yet humans are judged and punished for what Allah decreed.

📌 Trap: If Allah wills evil, punishing people for His will is unjust.
If He doesn’t will evil, then He’s not sovereign — and Ashari theology collapses.

❓ 9. Why does Allah “pray” in Quran 33:56?

“Indeed, Allah and His angels send prayers (yusalloona) upon the Prophet...”

Same root word as humans praying (salah).
Tafsir scramble to redefine it as “blessings,” but the verb is the same.

📌 Trap: Who is Allah praying to?
If it’s not prayer, why use the same root and grammar?

❓ 10. Why does the Quran have abrogated verses if it is eternal and perfect?

Quran 2:106 – Verses are abrogated or forgotten and replaced.

📌 Trap: A perfect divine book shouldn't contain obsolete content.
Abrogation implies error, revision, and human-like adaptability.

❓ 11. If Sharia is perfect, why did Caliphs repeatedly change it?

Examples:

Uthman’s Quran: destroyed variant Qurans
Umar banned temporary marriage (mut’ah) despite Hadith affirming it.
Shafi’i reformulated legal theory (usul al-fiqh)

📌 Trap: Either the early Caliphs tampered with Islam, or Islam allows man-made legal innovation.

❓ 12. If Hadith are divinely preserved, why are they full of contradictions and fabrications?

Sahih Bukhari: 7,000+ Hadiths chosen from 600,000+.
Major disagreements across schools: stoning, age of Aisha, jihad conditions.

📌 Trap: Either divine preservation failed, or Allah allowed hadith chaos to guide His religion.

❓ 13. Why does Allah use "We" in the Quran if He is one?

Plural pronouns: “We created,” “We sent down,” “Our signs” – over 2,000 times.

📌 Trap: Plurality in speech suggests multiplicity.
Tawhid (oneness) is violated by divine plurality unless explained away — which leads back to Christian-like theology.

❓ 14. If Hell is eternal, what happens to justice for finite sins?

Quran promises Hellfire for disbelief, even if lifelong deeds were good.
No second chance. No purgatory.

📌 Conclusion: This violates proportionality — a moral failure incompatible with divine justice.

❓ 15. Why does Islam have no assurance of salvation?

Even Muhammad said:

“I do not know what will happen to me or to you.” – Sahih Bukhari 5:58:266

📌 Trap: A prophet unsure of salvation can't provide certainty for anyone else.
Islam offers deeds and fear, not grace or security.

🧠 Final Word

Wave 3 isn’t for casual polemics. These are questions that cut into the theological, metaphysical, and legal veins of Islam. Once you ask them, there are only 3 responses:

Contradiction
Deflection
Collapse

You’re not attacking — you're holding Islam accountable to its own claims.
