Title: Does the Qur'an contradict? Verses 56:14 and 56:40
Post by: Sharif on January 25, 2016, 09:38:01 AM
SALAM ALEIKUM WARAHMATULAH WABARAKATUH, Hello brothers, some christians told me some called contradictions in the Qur'an, and they showed me a group of easy contradictions that I could refute, but this not; please help me: In the verse 56:14 says the people who will enter to Paradise will be a good many of those of olden times, (but [only] a few of later times) This is the verse 56:14. The problem is in the same chapter, in 56:39, where it says that (a good many of olden times) will be in Jan-nah. How is this possible? Many or Few? Please, review the text in arabic, I believe that the word translated as Many is Thullatun, and I believe it means a Group. However, research, please.

THANKS FOR ALL, DEAR BROTHERS, SALAM ALEIKUM WARAHMATULAH.

In Surah Waqia (56) it talks about three groups of people:
1 The companions of the right.
2 The companions of the left.
3 The companions of the front.

Ayah 14 is talking about 3rd group and Ayah 40 is talking about 1st group. Can even an idiot see any CONTRADICTION here?
It is like saying that the companions of the right will have more women than men and the companions of the front will have more man then women, and this is what they call CONTRADICTION!  ;D
