This is a new series (1-4) of Verse No. in the Bible versus the Quran.


Verse No. 4 in the Old Testament says that God saw that the light was good, and He separated the light from the darkness.


Verse No. 4 in the New Testament says that Ram was the father of Amminadab, Amminadab the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon the father of Salmon.


Verse No. 4 in the Noble Quran says that  Allah is Allah is the Owner, the Master and the King of the Day of Judgment.


----------



The verse No. 4 in the Old Testament is Genesis 1:4


The verse continues talking about the creation of the heavens and the earth, it says: God saw that the light was good; and God separated the light from the darkness.


----------



The verse No. 4 in the New Testament is Matthew 1:4


The verse continues talking about the Genealogy of Jesus Christ, it says: And Ram the father of Amminadab, Amminadab the father of Nahshon, Nahshon the father of Salmon,



Here again, there is a problem in writing the names in the different four versions of the Bible studied. Basically, the names of the people have no translation, they have to be written as they are pronounced.


In the four versions of the Bible studied we find the following:


Nahshon, Ram, and Amminadab are found in three versions and they are written as Naasson, Aram and Aminadab in one version.


As I said in the previous article, this is a constant phenomenon that is the difference in writing and pronouncing the names of persons and places which is common throughout the different versions of the Bible.


----------



Verse No. 4 in the Noble Quran is Chapter 1:4, Surah AL-FAATEHAH (THE KEY), 1:4


The verse says



The verse says that Allah is the Master of the Day of Judgment: that is, the day of requite, the Day of Resurrection. The reason for the specific mention of the Day of Judgment is that the mastery of none shall appear on that Day except that of Allah, may He be exalted, as is indicated by Allah's words:


 ‘Whose is the Kingdom today?' ‘Allah's' [see verse 40:16]


In other words, Allah is the Owner of the Day of Judgment, the Arbitrator on the Day of Judgment which is the Day of Reckoning and settlement of disputes between created beings, i.e. the Day when people are judged according to their deeds; there is no judge save Him.


The Arabic word is "Malik" of the Day of Judgment.


It is translated to owner or master of the Day of Judgment.


However, Malik also means the one who is capable to have the Day of Judgment done and to make all of its state of affairs according to the deeds of man.


In addition, Malik means the King.


On the Day of Judgment Allah will ask:


Where are the kings?


Who is the king today?


Everyone will hear this question but no one dares to answer.


Then Allah will answer saying:


It is Allah! The King, the only King.


Then the sequences of that horrible days will start on.
