Bible Versus Quran Versus Sciences, (40) Does the Lord Rest?
Author: Prof.dr. Ibrahim Khalil   | Posted: 09-04-2007 | Comments: 0 | Views: 43 | Rating: (50)  (?) 
The Bible declares many times that the Lord our God rest.
The Bible says that: God had finished the work by the seventh day; so on the seventh day he rested, the seventh day is holy because on it God rested from all the work, The Lord rested on the seventh day and blessed it and made it holy, The Lord abstained from work and rested, On the seventh day God rested from all his work, the Lord our God rest upon us.
Sciences say that many creatures do not rest at all e.g., the heart, the red cells, the white cells, the platelets, the Bacteria, the Fungi, the Sun etc.
If you read the Quran to Rest the Lord's case in respect to the question does the Lord Rest? The Quran utters: Rest assured, the Lord does not Rest and He never ever Rest
Does the Lord rest? In the Bible
God had finished the work by the seventh day, so on the seventh day he rested
Genesis 2:2
By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work.
The seventh day is holy because on it God rested from all the work
Genesis 2:3
And God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done.
The Lord rested on the seventh day and blessed it and made it holy.
Exodus 20:11
For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.
The Lord abstained from work and rested.
Exodus 31:17
It will be a sign between me and the Israelites forever, for in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, and on the seventh day he abstained from work and rested.'
the Lord our God rest upon us
Psalm 90:17
May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us; establish the work of our hands for us— yes, establish the work of our hands.
On the seventh day God rested from all his work
Hebrews 4:4
And yet his work has been finished since the creation of the world. For somewhere he has spoken about the seventh day in these words: "And on the seventh day God rested from all his work."
The Sciences and the Rest:
Expressions like tired, weak, or in need of rest and fatigue are among general practice of human beings. Fatigue is partially due to the accumulation of lactic acid in the muscles.
It is well known that balancing work and rest is the proper way to combat fatigue.
Researchers noticed the effect of Rest periods on productivity.
Post-exercise fatigue is the way you feel after typical enthusiastic exercises. Proper rest leads to improved performance of the muscles.
This is applicable for man and vertebrates but not for all the creatures.
Also, this is not applicable for some components inside our bodies.
Example of Non-Resting creatures:
The heart does not rest at all.
The red cells, the white cells, the platelets do not rest at all.
Bacteria do not rest at all.
Fungi do not rest at all.
The Sun does not rest at all.
Now, the Question is:
How come that many creatures do not rest while the Almighty Creator Rest?
It is the Quran which answered this question more than 1400 years ago.
Does the Lord rest? In the Quran:
Now let us go to the Quran to Rest the Lord's case in respect to the question does the Lord Rest?
The Quran says: Rest assured, the Lord does not Rest and He never ever Rest
Allah is not like us.
No one is similar to Allah.
Surah 42:11
SHAKIR: the originator of the heavens and the earth; he made mates for you from among yourselves, and mates of the cattle too, multiplying you thereby; nothing like a likeness of him; and he is the hearing, the seeing
PICKTHAL: the creator of the heavens and the earth. he hath made for you pairs of yourselves, and of the cattle also pairs, whereby he multiplieth you. naught is as his likeness; and he is the hearer, the seer.
YUSUFALI: (he is) the creator of the heavens and the earth: he has made for you pairs from among yourselves, and pairs among cattle: by this means does he multiply you: there is nothing whatever like unto him, and he is the one that hears and sees (all things).
They dispute concerning Allah, and Allah is far beyond your thoughts and imaginations.
If we get tired, Allah does not.
If we rest, Allah does not
If we get sick, Allah does not
If we die, Allah does not
Surah 13:13
SHAKIR: and the thunder declares his glory with his praise, and the angels too for awe of him; and he sends the thunderbolts and smites with them whom he pleases, yet they dispute concerning Allah, and he is mighty in prowess
PICKTHAL: the thunder hymneth his praise and (so do) the angels for awe of him. he launcheth the thunderbolts and smiteth with them whom he will while they dispute (in doubt) concerning Allah, and he is mighty in wrath.
YUSUFALI: nay, thunder repeateth his praises, and so do the angels, with awe: he flingeth the loud-voiced thunder-bolts, and therewith he striketh whomsoever he will..yet these (are the men) who (dare to) dispute about Allah, with the strength of his power (supreme)!
Allah never ever rest.
Surah 50:38
SHAKIR: and certainly We Created the heavens and the earth and what is between them in six periods and there touched us not any fatigue
PICKTHAL: and verily We Created the heavens and the earth, and all that is between them, in six days, and naught of weariness touched Us.
YUSUFALI: We Created the heavens and the earth and all between them in six days, nor did any sense of weariness touch Us.
Again, to Rest the Lord's case in respect to the question does the Lord Rest? It should be emphasized that the Quran consider saying that the Lord rest or rested as a big unforgiving offense in respect to the Lord the Almighty Creator.
Anyone who believes that the Lord the Almighty Creator rest or rested put himself in the category of unbeliever and he is responsible for himself at the Day of Judgment when the Lord the Almighty Creator asks him:" Did I Rest? Do I rest? How I rest?
Prepare your answer for that big day.

By: Nawaz | 11/10/2008
Islam has nothing to do with those who commit acts of terrorism. Therefore, it is wise to differentiate Muslims (who are exercising this) and Islam. Just as acts of terrorism committed by Christians cannot be attributed to Christianity (like in bosnia & india), acts of terrorism committed by Muslims must not be attributed to Islam or its teachings.

Who are the Lord' People in Bible Versus Quran, [3] – Jeshurun?
By: Prof.dr. Ibrahim Khalil | 09/05/2008 | Religion
In the Bible, the Lord says in Isaiah 44:2:" Jeshurun, whom I have chosen." In Deuteronomy 32:15, You read that Jeshurun grew fat and kicked; filled with food, forsook God and lightly esteemed the Rock of salvation.
On the other hand, the Quran does not favor any nation over the other and also does not favor any people over the other; it says clearly that the noblest of you in the sight of God is the most God-fearing among you.
