Isangs low level argument busted !

Honestly, this guy Isang has become a stand-up comedian. I really can’t imagine anyone, whether a Muslim or Christian taking such a man seriously. the guy is an embarrassment to his fellow Christians. Even though we’ve exposed his foolish lies, the shameless man is still at it. His recent posts on Facebook on, who was the Angel that came to Cave Hira is absurd.

Isang claims the Angel who came to Cave Hira and visited Prophet Muhammed Pbuh was unknown unlike the Angel who came to visit Mary Pbuh. He goes on to say the Hadith which talk about the first Revelation of Prophet Muhammed Pbuh does not mention the name of the Angel who visited him, and “modern day Muslim Scholars” gave the name Gabriel Pbuh to identify who the Angel was? Whereas the story of Mary Pbuh mentions the name of Gabriel Pbuh, thus Gabriel came to Mary Pbuh and not Prophet Muhammed Pbuh, so who was that Angel at Cave Hira? He also states the Hadith in Sahih Bukhari says, Waraqah used the name of Gabriel Pbuh, yet the name of Gabriel Pbuh is in brackets so its not part of the Hadith and was added by the “Modern day Scholars”

Firstly, there is no need for Isang to search whether the Hadith mentions the name of Gabriel Pbuh or not, we can assure you  the Quran does. Before we get to the Hadith lets read what the Quran says.

Say: “Whoever is an enemy to Gabriel (should know that) he revealed this (Qur’an) to your heart by Allah’s leave: it confirms the Scriptures revealed before it, and is a guidance and good tiding to the people of faith. (2:97)

Tell them: "It is the spirit of holiness that has brought it down, by stages, from your Lord so that it might bring firmness to those who believe, and guidance to the Right Way, and give glad tidings of felicity and success to those who submit to Allah." (16:102)

Indeed this is a revelation from the Lord of the Universe; which the truthful spirit has carried down to your heart that you might become one of those who warn (others on behalf of Allah), (a revelation) in clear Arabic language, (26:192-195)

Notice from the above verses how Allah Swt is telling us through the Quran, that Angel Gabriel Pbuh was the one who brought down this Revelations of the Quran to Prophet Muhammed Pbuh. Surah Baqarah explicitly mentions the name Gabriel Pbuh. This is sound evidence that Gabriel Pbuh was the Angel who came to Cave Hira and have the first Revelation to Prophet Muhammed Pbuh. For Muslims the Quran comes first. And we read from the Quran, the Word of Allah Swt, that Angel Gabriel Pbuh was responsible for bringing down the Revelations to Prophet Muhammed Pbuh. How then could Isang make such a bold claim that “modern day Muslim Scholars” added the name Gabriel?

Now whether the Hadith mentions the name of Gabriel Pbuh or not, the Quran is clear Gabriel Pbuh was responsible for bringing down the Revelation to Prophet Muhammed Pbuh. So Isangs entire false claim on “we don’t know who came to Cave Hira”  has been destroyed by the Quran. It doesn’t stop here, we have more evidence from the “Hadith and Seerah” where Gabriel Pbuh introduced himself using his real name.

 Yahya reported:

I asked Abu Salama what was revealed first from the Qur'an. He said:" 0, the shrouded one." I said: Or" Recite." Jabir said: I am narrating to you what was narrated to us by the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). He said: I stayed in Hira' for one month and when my stay was completed, I come down and went into the heart of the valley. Somebody called me aloud. I looked in front of me, behind me, on the right of my side and on my left, but I did not see any body. I was again called and I looked about but saw nothing. I was called again and raised my head, and there on the Throne in the open atmosphere he, i. e. Gabriel (peace be upon him) was sitting. I began to tremble on account of fear. I came to Khadija and said: Wrap me up. They wrapped me up and threw water on me and Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, sent down this: you who are shrouded! arise and deliver warning, your Lord magnify, your clothes cleanse."

(Sahih Muslim Book 1, Hadith 316)

The Hadith is clear that Gabriel Pbuh was the Angel who came to Cave Hira. The Hadith even uses his name جِبْرِيلَ. One wonders why Isang would even make such a claim, that the name of the Angel was unknown?  I intentionally added the Arabic writing just in case Isang tries to say, the Arabic doesn’t mention the name. the narration below is taken from the Seerah.

 When I was midway on the mountain, I heard a voice from heaven saying, 'O Muhammad! Thou art the Apostle of God and I am Gabriel.' I raised my head towards heaven to see, and lo! Gabriel in the form of a man, with feet astride the horizon, saying, 'O Muhammad! Thou art the Apostle of God, and I am Gabriel.' I stood gazing at him, moving neither forward nor backward; then I began to turn my face away from him, but towards whatever region of the sky I looked, I saw him as before. (Ibn Hishām p. 62-63)

Once again, Isang has shot himself proving what kind of a low level “Christian apologist” he is. The narration from the “earliest Seerah” is crystal clear. Prophet Muhammed Pbuh saw Angel Gabriel Pbuh, who made mention of his real name. from the Seerah of Ibn Hisham we read this happened directly after Prophet Muhammed Pbuh received his first Revelation “Iqra”. Whilst leaving Cave Hira and going down the Mountain, Gabriel Pbuh revealed his name.

1:  The Quran explicitly mentions Gabriel Pbuh by name, who brought down the Revelations of the Quran to Prophet Muhammed Pbuh

2: the Hadith is clear mentioning the name of Gabriel Pbuh, who came with the Revelations of the Quran to Prophet Muhammed Pbuh

3: the earliest Seerah again explicitly mentions the name of Gabriel Pbuh.

Conclusion :

Isang is a disgrace to Christians and should not be taken seriously at all.
