Comparative Study between the Bible versus the Quran (21)
Chapter by Chapter and Verse by Verse;
(Chapter 21:1-10)

The Old Testament Verses from 1-10 are talking about Sarah commanded Abraham to cast out Hagar and Ishmael and said that Ishmael not be heir with Isaac.
Sarah acted as if she was the Lord! However, the women at the time of Abraham had no saying! This story is not found in the Quran.
The New Testament Verses from 1-10 are talking about How Jesus went to Jerusalem riding an ass.
The Noble Quran Verses from 1-10 are talking about man never listens carefully to his Lord's message. Your Lord knows and hears all things.
The unbelievers said about the Quran that it is medleys of dreams! Nay, Mohammad forged it! Nay, Mohammad is (but) a poet! Nay Mohammad has to bring us a Sign like the ones that were sent to the old Prophets! The unbelievers at the time of Mohammad did the as those of the ancient times whom Allah destroyed because of their transgression!

The Noble Quran:

Chapter 21 in the Noble Quran is composed of 112 verses.
Verses from 1-10 are talking about man never listens carefully to his Lord's message. Your Lord knows and hears all things.
The unbelievers said about the Quran that it is medleys of dreams! Nay, Mohammad forged it! Nay, Mohammad is (but) a poet! Nay Mohammad has to bring us a Sign like the ones that were sent to the old Prophets! The unbelievers at the time of Mohammad did the as those of the ancient times whom Allah destroyed because of their transgression!

[1] Closer and closer to mankind comes their Reckoning: yet they heed not and they turn away.
[2] Never comes (aught) to them of a renewed Message from their Lord, but they listen to it as in jest,
[3] Their hearts toying as with trifles. The wrong-doers conceal their private counsels (saying), "Is this (one) more than a man like yourselves? Will ye go to witchcraft with your eyes open?"
[4] Say: "My Lord knoweth (every) word (spoken) in the heavens and on earth: He is the One that heareth and knoweth (all things)."
[5] "Nay," they say, "(These are) medleys of dreams! Nay, he forged it! Nay, he is (but) a poet! Let him then bring us a Sign like the ones that were sent to (Prophets) of old!"
[6] (As to those) before them, not one of the populations which We destroyed believed: will these believe?
[7] Before thee, also, the messengers We sent were but men, to whom We granted inspiration: if ye realise this not, ask of those who possess the Message.
[8] Nor did We give them bodies that ate no food, nor were they exempt from death.
[9] In the end We fulfilled to them Our promise, and We saved them and those whom We pleased, but We destroyed those who transgressed beyond bounds.
[10] We have revealed for you (O men!) a Book in which is a Message for you: will ye not then understand?
