The Quran, is the same word, from the original word of the Old Testament.

Having read the Quran, and still read, and study from it and others religious doctrine, the Quran was observed to be more or less, the same words of the God as its counter parts, the Old, and New Testaments. This is saying that the Quran has served as yet another educational tool in learning of the knowkedges of the ancestors, and of the God of...... You know.

Before continuing it should be noted: The Old Testament has informed readers to watch out for "prophets" taking the words from one another. Just like the word of the New Testament, which can be found in the Old Testament, the following verses in A Brief Illustrated Guide to Understanding Islam which are taught as recently discovered, or proven by scientists facts, are also found in the words of the prophets of the Old Testament.

These recently discovered, or proven by scientists facts found in A Brief Illustrated Guide to Understanding Islam is an education written in Arabic, for them, and anybody else.

What About Prophets taking from one another.

Jeremiah 23:30
30 Assuredly, I am going to deal with the prophets -- declares the LORD -- who steal My words from one another.

How Muhammad got the word of the God, and the Quran, is up to the individual to decide. Education of Muhammad states he recieved the instruction from the light or the Angel Gabriel. This study will show that Muhammad did get his "knowledge" of the verses from the "light", or what was, and is, public knowledge.

Light: public knowledge

In this study it was observed that the facts, only recently discovered or proven by scientists, that are in the Quran, were also found in the words spoken by the prophets of the Old Testament.

The Quran, and its words which are said to be revealed fourteen centuries ago, have mentioned the facts in the Brief Illustrated Guide to Understanding Islam that have only, recently been discovered or proven by scientists. In "fact" are also a knowledge which is found the Old Teatament.

The facts revealed in the Brief Illustrated Guide to Understanding Islam starting at page 6, are said to prove without a doubt that the recently discovered or proven by scientists facts, prove the Quran "must" be the literal word of God, revealed by "Him" (the God) to the prophet Muhammad.

This study will show that the revealed facts from the Quran, are indeed a literal Word of the "God". This literal word from the God that is in the Quran can also be found in the writings of the Old Testament, in the words of the old prophets.

The Embryo

- A brief illustrated Guide to understanding Islam page 6

The first recently discovered fact that is being looked at from - A brief Illustrated Guide to Understanding Islam, is the knowledge of the embyo. In researching the embryo in the Bibles, it is noted that many people already know that this recently discovered fact about the embryo is discribed in the Old Testaments in the book of Job.

The fact that both books cover the biology of the embryo, shows both groups as having some understanding of this knowledge in that time.


- A brief illustrated Guide to understanding Islam (page 6)

Quran 23:12-14
We created man from a extract of clay. Then We made him as a drop in a place of settlement, firmly fixed. Then We made the drop into an alaqah (leech, suspended thing, and blood clot), then We made the alaqah into wmudghah (crudled substance)

extract clay - from man

a place of settlement - in the womb

the drop into an alaqah (leech) - the fetus

the alaqah in wmudghah (crudled substance) - cell division before the fetus


In the Old Testament, in Job 10.9, there is the mention of "being fashioned like clay", but not being from clay. Then the process of conception, with being poured out like milk, then made into the congealed cheese (cell division), then skin, flesh, and bones......

Old Testament
Job 10.99
Consider that You fashioned me like clay; Will You then trun me back into dust? You poured me out like milk, Congealed me like cheese; You clothed me with skin and flesh And wove me of bones and sinews;


extract clay - You poured me out like milk - from man
wmudghah - Congealed me like cheese - cell division
alaqah - You clothed me with skin and flesh - fetus, growth


With this one example, it was observered that what has been said in the Quran about the embryo, was something spoken by the prophet Job. The knowledge that the Quran verse 23:12-14 informs as a recently discovered, or proven by scientists fact, is as old as Job.

The Pegs, or Roots Of The Mountains

- A brief illustrated Guide to understanding Islam page 11


Next in the study, the pegs, or "Roots" of the mountains are mentioned by the Quran. This recently discovered, and proven by scientists fact, corresponds with, once again, the words of the prophet Job from the Old Testament. In Job it mentions the mountains, and its pegs, but calls them roots. This clearly does show, and is proof that the Quran verse 78:6-7 can be said to be the Word of the God, with certain words changed from the original script from the book of Job.

If at most these two examples of the "Gods" word that are presented, show a understanding of geology many, many, years ago.


- A brief illustrated Guide to understanding Islam (Page 11)
Quran 78:6-7
Have "We" (the God) not made the earth as a bed, and the mountains as pegs.


Peg : a small usually cylindrical pointed or tapered piece (as of wood) used to pin down or fasten things or to fit into or close holes.

The use of bed, or couch is not uncommon in the many texts as the discription of the abode of man, and where he rests his head (Earth).

The "pegs" are similar, and a close match to the "roots" of the mountains in Job 28;9 which is submitted as the corresponding word of the God, with the Quran verse. This again would confirms the Quran is a word of the God, and a knowledge that is as old as the prophet Job.

Man sets his hand against the flinty rock; (Bed) and overturns the mountains by the roots, (pegs).

Mountains are fixed, and firm

- A brief illustrated Guide to understanding Islam page 13 Link

Here in the study the description of mountains, and their solid state is explained by the Quran, along with the Old Testament script from Pslams that mentions the solid state of mountains as well in this calibration of teachings.

Has there always been a knowledge of geology, and had it been evidant throughout the generation of the ancestors?

And He has set firm mountains in the earth so that it would not shake with you.

In the following discription of the heavens, and the earth coming together; is a verse which is interputed in different ways, and has different thought when compared with the doctrine of Psalms.

Special Note:
In the brief illustrated Guide to understanding Islam, not all the verse was present in the booklet, hence the word "brief". The rest of the verse has been added for further knowledge.


- A brief illustrated Guide to understanding Islam Page 14

Quran 41:11
Then He turned to the heaven when it was smoke, and said to it and to the earth: Come both of you, willingly or loath. They said : We come, obedient.

In the Old Testament a song from Psalms appears to say the same thing but tells a differnt story.

Jewish Study Bible
Old Testament
psalms 144.5
O Lord, bend Your sky (Heaven)and come down: touch (come together with) the mountains (earth) and "they" will smoke.


Bend: turn from a straight course, fixed direction or line of interest.

Old Testament
King James Version
Psalms 144:5
Bow thy heavens, O Lord and come down and touch the mountains (earth) and they shall smoke.


Bow: submit or yeild

A Simply Explaination

The clouds in the sky , or heavens which look like smoke. come together with the mountains (earth) and cover them, making them look like they are smoking. This happens to this day, and is a neat thing to see. It seems like the ancestors were familar with the process of irrigating of mountains.

When the next verse, Quran 21:30 is read, the heaven, and earth were combined, and then were parted. This maybe observed as more of a scientific look at the creation, with a reflection of Genesis. The prevous verse had heaven, and earth coming together, yet then they are said have been separated. This occurence is a whole different study, and is still being investagated.

Reflecting on Genesis, and associating it with the Quran verse 21:30, everything does start, or is said to have started from one source, when the God said "let there be light", (Big Bang) "everything" was scattered out into a void (Gen 1-3) the universe was born a cloud of smoke, then the earth was formed with a sea, the one continent, the sun, and moon. All of everything, starting from the same instance.


- A brief illustrated Guide to understanding Islam page 14 Link

Quran 21:30
Have not those who disbelieve known that the heavens and earth were of one piece, then We parted them, and We made ever living thing of water?

As far as all living things being made of water, the second chapter of Genesis informs readers there were no plants because of no water, or "rain". The plants needed water to grow, man was formed with mud, and water, tben all the animals, making all living things of water. Through deductive reasoning the conclusion all things are made of water is evident.

The Sin, Or Defiance, And Impudense From The Forehead.

- A brief illustrated Guide to understanding Islam page 16 Link

In the next part of the study it is apparent that both groups views are relatively the same in regards to where sin, error, or defiance and impudense comes from.......the front of the brain, or forehead.

- A brief illustrated Guide to understanding Islam Page 16

Quran 96:15-16
No! If he does not stop, We will take him by the naseyah (front of the head), a lying, sinful naseyah (front of the head)!

Corresponding Referance
Old Testament
Ezekiel 3:7-8
7 But the House of Israel will refuse to listen to you, for they refuse to listen to Me; for the whole House of Israel are "brazen of forehead" and stubborn of heart. 8 But I will make your face as hard as theirs, and your "forehead as brazen" as theirs.


"brazen: faced with defiance and impudense.

It can be agreed that the Quran verse 96:15-16 is a knowledge that sin (defiance or impudence) comes from the forehead. This understanding has been shown also to br a word of the God, spoken to the prophet Ezekiel, and how the God would make Ezekiel defiant, and impudent in mind, or the forehead.

The Waters Don't Transgress

In the next part of the study a look at barriers in the sea where the waters don't transgress, with a reference of the fact, from the Old Testament. Also being shown is a knowledge of a wave under the waves deep in the sea, a boarder where the light meets the darkness, and a knowledge that goes back as far as king Solomon.

- A brief illustrated Guide to understanding Islam Page 18
Quran 55:19-20
He has set free the two seas meeting together there is a barrier between them. They do not transgress.

This knowledge was first known about by the prophet, and king, Soloman. It was a lesson to his son about the waters not trangressing, and the power the God had in His command.

Old Testament
Proverbs 8:29
29 When He assigned the sea its limits, So that its waters never transgress His command;


Not only did king Solomon have an understanding of the waters not transgressing, there is a mention of the measures of the water, or the limits, and bounds of the waters spoken about in the book of Job.


Job 28:25 25 When He fixed the weight of the winds, Set the measure of the waters;


measure : limit; bounds

weight of the wind:
cold air; heavy:
warm air; light.

The weight of the winds.

Wind is created when warm air which is light, rises (as it can be seen with hot air balloons, they float). When warm air rises, cooler heavier air drops in to fill the space the light warm air leaves creating wind.

The water is Sweet, The water is bitter.

- A brief illustrated Guide to understanding Islam page 18 Link

- Quran 25:53
He is the one who has set free the two kinds of water, one sweet and palatable, and the other salty and bitter. And He has made between them a barrier and a forbidding partition.

The salt water, yes is bitter, and fresh water, yes is sweet, and it is known they don't trangress. This statement is of deductive reasoning, it is somewhat like saying "the God, He made some berries bitter that cannot be eaten, and other berries sweet, that can be eaten".

The only place so far in the Bible that's talks about bitter water, and sweet water, made by the God is in Exodus 15:23-25.


Old Testament
Exodus 15:23-25
23 They came to Marah, but they could not drink the water of Marah because it was bitter; that is why it was named Marah.
24 And the people grumbled against Moses, saying, "What shall we drink?"
25 So he cried out to the LORD, and the LORD showed him a piece of wood; he threw it into the water and the water became sweet. There He made for them a fixed rule, and there He put them to the test.


A Wave Below The Waves

- A brief illustrated Guide to understanding Islam page 20-21 Link

As the study progresses, interesting observations develope, and the next scientific fact from Job, and the Quran leaves it to wonder, did the ancestors of the past know about the wave under the waves in the sea where the light, and darkness meet.

- A brief illustrated Guide to understanding Islam Page 20-21

Quran 24:40
Or is like the darkness in a deep sea, It is covered by waves, above which are waves, above which are clouds. Darknesses, one above another, If a man stretches out his hand, he cannot see it...)


Old Testament
Job 26.10
He drew a boundry on the surface of the waters, at the extreme where light and darkness meet.


The Clouds

- A brief illustrated Guide to understanding Islam page 24-25

Quran 24:43
Have you not seen how God makes the clouds move gently, then joins them together, then makes them into a stack, and the you see the rain come out of it....


Just like the ancestors of the past, who through a prophet named Job, came to understand, clouds were large amoumts of water.

Old Testament
Job 26:8 8
He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.


Old Testament
Job 26:8
8 He wrapped up the waters in His clouds; Yet no cloud burst under their weight. a


rent: breach

Old Testament
Job 38-24
By what path is the west wind dispensed,The east wind scattered over the earth? Who cut a channel for the torrents and a path for the thunderstorms, To rain down on uninhabited land,


Torrent : a violent stream of a liquid (even a cloud in the sky which is liquid, moving with the course of the wind)

Hail and Lightning, and thunder from The Sky

(Quran 24,:43) And He sends down hail from mountains (clouds) in the sky, and He strikes with it whomever He wills, and turns it from whomever He wills. The vivid flash of its lightning nearly blinds the sight.


Psalms 18:12-15
12 He made darkness His screen; dark thunderheads, dense clouds of the sky were His pavilion round about Him.
13 Out of the brilliance (vivid flashes) before Him, hail and fiery coals pierced His clouds.
14 Then the LORD thundered from heaven, the Most High gave forth His voice -- a hail and fiery coals.

Pavilion: Large often sumptous tent.

Sumptous: of size or splender suggesting great expense.

Hail and fiery coals make lightning, lighting makes the thunder (Voice).
15 He let fly His shafts and scattered them, (lightning); He discharged lightning and routed them, (the lightning).


Them, is not to say at individuals, them is to ssy scatters lighting, routed lightning. Shaft: a ray, beam, or streak, esp of light
coal: cause; to burn or combust
fiery: very intence

Hail and fiery coals

Lightning is formed when cloud charges are separated by ice crystals rebound off graupel (hail). Charge separation require strong updrafts which carry water droplets upward, supercooling them to between -10 and -40 °C. These water droplets collide with ice crystals to form a soft ice-water mixture called graupel. Collisions between ice crystals and graupel pellets results in positive charge being transferred to the ice crystals, and negative charge to the graupel. Updrafts drive the less heavy ice crystals upwards, causing the cloud top to accumulate increasing positive charge. Gravity causes the heavier negatively charged graupel to fall toward the middle and lower portions of the cloud, building up an increasing negative charge. Charge separation and accumulation continue until the electrical potential becomes sufficient to initiate (combust) into a lightning discharge, which occurs when the distribution of positive and negative charges forms a sufficiently strong (very intence) electric field.

By researching the different materials available of the subject of religion, and this God of Abraham, Ishmael, Issac, Jacob, or Israeal, prophets taking from prophets in the effort to pass on knowledge, can be seen from author to author, reflecting on the Old Testament of the original Book.

We know how to interpret the appearance of earth and sky, so why do we not know how to interpret the present time? We live for a future that doesn't exist, never really living in the moment, and often we dwell in a past that is never to be changed, exceot in this moment when the future is sustained.
