This website has been much help to me but I have a last doubt that stops me from calling myself Muslim again. I've know this is a big topic maybe someone could do an article but there is a series by David Wood called countering Muslim claims where he uses quran authentic hadith and evidence . I really need help guys I know this will take effort but please if this can be answered I can finally turn back to Islam. I do not expect and imidiate answer of course but please it would be so much help even if you could look at the episodes and provide a link refuting each one there are just under 10 episodes maybe 1 or 2 more please it will be so much help this website has never failed me.
Thank you.

As'salamu Alaikum dear brothers,
I was away for work and couldn't do much for the website. Jazakum Allah Khayr for all of your efforts in helping brother Zakir. May Allah Almighty reward you greatly. Ameen.
Brother Zakir, don't feel restricted to ask more questions. You're always welcomed to speak your mind. Whatever doubts you have, feel free to post them here. No need for "my final doubt". You're always welcomed to post as you wish here, provided that no infidel links be posted here, as you already know. May Allah Almighty bless you and continue to lead you to Islam. Ameen.
I fought with Islam within myself for many many years! I know how hard it is. Trust me brother, all of the barking and braying out there from the doomed-to-Hell infidels is empty. Islam is the Divine and Solid Truth of Allah Almighty.
Take care,
Osama Abdallah

Jazakum Allah Khayr brother Osama

Okay on Episode 2 they discuss about the Literary Miracle of the Quran, mostly about Quran 2:23...seriously they tend to ignore lots of aspects, seems more like the reasoning of a 12 year old to be honest...anyway read these...
http://www.islamic-awareness.org/Quran/Miracle/ijaz.html
https://nosurahlikeit.wordpress.com/
Useful points in that one:
http://www.answering-christianity.com/surah_response1.htm
This episode is not really important...
-
Donot call this your final doubt,there will always come a doubt,whether it be small or big,all you have to do is find answers for it.
-
Episode 5, they discuss about Muhammad in the Bible...they make interesting points but they don't go into much detail...
I would like to show you articles but i think this debate would be enough...

In Episode 6 they talk about the growth of Islam...
Basically there are Muslims who claim that the rapid growth of Islam is a proof that it is a true religion...i wonder which Muslim brings that up but i never do that to be honest...
Then they bring stuff such as girls getting shot in Muslim countries for going to school...dude seriously...sigh...
-
Okay just a recap, we've talked about Ep 2,3,4,5,6,7...only 2 more remains, i'll try to take a look later...
-
Oh i made a mistake, number 5 is infact number 7...so we're not done with number 5 yet...

OK that's fine

@Zakir, sorry for being late...i went to sleep...i'll deal with the rest when i have some free time later...
Lets carry on tomorrow then

Alright Episode 5, They discuss whether the Prophet Performed miracles or not....though there are hadiths that clearly provides an affirmative answer about that, they simply dismiss them, and guess what? They have no concrete proofs to dismiss those hadith, on top of that they seem to forget that we have detailed chains of transmission, i mean any expert on hadiths would literally facepalm at their points...They make so much unproven statements that i had to send a couple of brothers some emails to check their claims...anyway i wouldn't spend my time talking about hadith science and stuff...
They use the Quran as their main proof so i guess that i must simply let the Quran speak for itself...a friend helped me on that one (thanks QB)
Jesus - "And behold! I did restrain the Children of Israel from (violence to) thee when thou didst show them the clear Signs, and the unbelievers among them said: 'This is nothing but evident magic." (5:110)
Moses - "He said: "Hast thou come to drive us out of our land with thy magic, O Moses?" (20:57)
Muhammad - "But if they see a Sign, they turn away, and say, "This is (but) transient magic."" (54:2)
