What are the Satanic Verses? | Dr. Shabir Ally

You have to respect Dr Ally's honesty. Admitting your prophet's revelations actually came from Satan takes balls

maybe all the quran is devil origin

Satan states in the Quran he is the greatest deceiver of ALL no peaceful god would EVER say that.

Muhammad never believed in any god. He just wanted to project himself as prophet of god. For fifteen years he prayed to yeh-weh god of jews and prayed towards Jerusalem calling kaba masjid ul haram. There wasn't any al-aqsa musjid at Jerusalem. When he didn't get support of meccans he changed the god from yeh-weh to allah along with his three daughters. When jews mocked him he said it is satan who did this.Then he abolished three daughters of Allah claiming Allah is the only god.

Nothing is purpoted

Well, at least it is nice to see that some are trying to actually exercise a bit of introspection. " A life not inspected is a life not worth living!" That is a statement better than all religions, books, bibles and qurans.

I really enjoyed this guy struggling with this. It is an honest struggle. I truly respect that. Hopefully these struggles will lead him to have enough confidence in his own wisdom to actually back himself.

The best book Satanic verses read this book..🐷 dont want you to read this when u read u wil know why

8 Years later when confronted by the people of Medina

The 21st century and you have two adults discussing this nonsense.

First, the claim that the story doesn’t originate from “the most authentic sources” overlooks the fact that the "Satanic Verses" narrative is extensively documented in Islam’s earliest biographical and exegetical traditions, including the works of Al-Tabari, Ibn Sa’d, Al-Waqidi, and others. These sources, while not part of the canonical hadith collections like Sahih Bukhari or Sahih Muslim, represent some of the earliest records of Islamic history and provide rich context for Muhammad’s life and revelations. To dismiss them wholesale as unreliable risks ignoring a substantial body of evidence central to understanding early Islamic history.
Second, Dr. Shabir references John Burton's theory, which posits that Muslims fabricated or embraced the "Satanic Verses" story to explain Quranic concepts like abrogation or obscure verses. This hypothesis is speculative and lacks historical corroboration. It fails to account for the critical principle of embarrassment in historiography: the idea that narratives casting a founder or revered figure in a negative light are unlikely to be invented by their own followers. The "Satanic Verses" story paints Muhammad as momentarily influenced by Satan—a deeply compromising portrayal that undermines his prophetic reliability. It is implausible that early Muslims would fabricate such an account, given its potential to harm the Prophet’s credibility.
Moreover, Dr. Shabir’s dismissal of the narrative based on the argument that it’s incompatible with the Prophet’s pristine monotheism oversimplifies the historical context. Early Islamic sources indicate that Muhammad faced significant resistance from the Quraysh tribe, which adhered to polytheism. The compromise represented by the "Satanic Verses" aligns with a plausible attempt to reconcile this opposition. When Gabriel later allegedly corrected him, it allowed Muhammad to return to his strict monotheistic stance. This sequence of events, while problematic theologically, is historically coherent within the context of his efforts to consolidate his religious authority.
Additionally, Dr. Shabir’s interpretation of Quran 22:52, which refers to Satan interfering with the recitation of prophets, deserves scrutiny. The verse directly acknowledges the possibility of satanic influence, and early Islamic commentators linked it to the "Satanic Verses" incident. While later Islamic scholars reinterpreted this verse to distance it from such implications, the original connection to the incident cannot be dismissed without substantive evidence.
Finally, the notion that Muhammad’s alleged lapse would have undermined his credibility is speculative. Religious leaders throughout history have faced challenges to their authority, and moments of perceived fallibility have not necessarily discredited them among their followers. Instead, narratives of repentance or correction often reinforce their human relatability and divine guidance. The correction by Gabriel, as presented in the story, could have been framed as evidence of divine vigilance and the ultimate sanctity of the Quran.
In summary, Dr. Shabir’s dismissal of the "Satanic Verses" story underestimates its historical basis, relies on speculative theories, and fails to account for the principle of embarrassment or the sociopolitical context of Muhammad’s early ministry. While his theological motivations are clear, they do not provide a robust refutation of the historical plausibility of this controversial episode.

These are demons in disguise of Jokers ....Whitewashing the satans work

What does he mean that’s what they read now? I think corruption going on in those books 😊

Quran 22:52 who is “WE”?!?

The old snake had a 100 excused for Muhammad but calls Jesus confusing 😊

Religion is poison

Um confuuuuuzed. 😐
He can't even destinguish god and saitan??? How can even someone believe him???

religion of peace...what a joke!!!

Their inherited cultural values and traits

A story about 3 formal mekka idols, adopted and then disavowed by Muhammad. To disavow them, they were called satanic - the female idols and the verses Muhammad made them part of due worship. From the former mekka religiousness, the black rock (which inspired the rotschilds?) Is to this day, kept in the caaba

Well, NOTHING of this is Rushdies INVENTION. Rushdies book publicised this little known moment of the birth of islam.

This incident of reciting satanic verses by Prophet Mohammad is mentiond in all authentic Islamic history books like Islamic history by Ibn-Khuldoon and Al-Tabari, They have mentioned those 2-3 Aayats in their original arabic form in their books.The fact should not be ignored that these two are considerd most authentic historian by Islamic world. Although as Mr.Shabbir Ali claimed that the incident is not mentioned in any authenitic Hadith book like Al-Bukhari, this should be kept in mind that Al-Bukhari rejected more than 692000 hadiths and had given a place to some 7200-300 hadiths in his book, who knows that this incident would had gone under his eye but he had not given a place in the book "Sahih Al-Bukhari" (Deliberately...!!!) who knows? (Because these verses are kind of disfiguring/distorting monothiasm). Who knows that this kind of incident of Satan inducing verses in prophets mind happened only this single time or happened many times...!!!

i still don't understand how it's allowed to have a woman on this show

Even Jesus was deceived and carried around by Satan for 40 days like a sack of potatoes. Satan is always go against prophets.

How do you know that when allah talks to you that it isn't satan

friedrich nietzsche s antichrist

prophet Muhammad = shaytan can sit on his tongue
Umar= shaytan runs away when he sees him
Unbelievable 🤣
Alhamdullilah for Ahlul Bayt

long story short ... he doesnt know what hes talking about just like the pdfile so called prophet

Islam is clearly so false

If he was a prophet how come he didn't know that. A big question mark???

One now has to doubt the entire Quran.

thank you

Fake ID 😂😂😂

Muhammad is the greatest scammer of all. He has done everything, writing, copying, in right timing and so many people fall into it.

Allah of true is actually brahman of hinduism and 3 daughters of allah are actually the 3 godesses of hinduism like saraswati, lakshmi and parvati. Even their qualties are similar. So from a hindu perspective islam is indeed a corrupted almost opposite version of hinduism apart from some common things. like taking anti-clockwise rounds of idol whereas in hinduism its clockwise

Stunning

Genuine questions: the so called satanic verses were inspired by Satan. Do these verses flow in the same eloquent style that no man can imitate?

What a beautiful way to defend a satanic prophet

The guy is lier. Till date they worship the Arabian god and goddess in the kaba. Is completely pagan 👎 these godess are the one who takes prayers to Allah

So why want peaceful Muslims kill Salman Rushdie?

Islam is just an invented beyond through the imagination of Muhammad that never exist...not in reality..

satanic verses talking the satanic jews and the satanic crosstians

Did allah know that Mohammed was under influence of satan if is it so then why he didn’t let Mohammed know about this and why allah allowed Satan to alter the Quraan?

Satanic verses very convenient

the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 7:15–20), Jesus warns his followers of false prophets: "Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thorns, or figs from thistles?. As i write this, i ask with respect: Islam has been a religion of war and arms since its inception. Its also heavily relying on the truth of gospel, so am i so wrong for only believing in the gospel?

I don't believe this story because even Allah said the prophet Muhammad did not say anything but that it was from Him Allah so how was shaytan able to throw something in his recitation. Who would you believe Allah or some purported story concocted by some people who cannot validate this story. The Quran is pure free from evil influences. This story is weak and I don't think it has a basis in Islam

Islam keeps taking a massive L 🤣

Muhammad was possessed by Satan 😈
