When Christians become desperate, they tend
to bring the most absurd arguments to Muslims, which only backfire on them.
take for example the claim of witness. Christians tell us who was the witness
of Prophet Muhammed Pbuh in Cave Hira when he received his first Revelation
from Gabriel Pbuh.
Now bear in mind Christians have an agenda
behind this question. They want to corner Muslims into saying, there was no
witness in the Cave, therefore the story could have been made up. This is a
totally absurd question which will only backfire on them as you will see.
Firstly, if Christians believe that without
having a witness present for a miracle event then the incident itself should be
dismissed, how then do they accept the incident of Moses and the burning bush?
Which witness was present when Moses spoke to God through the burning bush,
whilst receiving his first miracle, that is turning his staff into a serpent?
If no witness was present during Moses's
visit to the mountain, why do Christians reject the event which happened in Cave
Hira? This is called "double standards" Christians must reject Moses
and his visit to the mount of burning bush since no witnesses were present.
Second point. Jesus was alone with the devil
for days and night in the wilderness, the question is who witnessed what
happened? How could you possibly know what happened if no one witnessed it? At
least you have be assured from both Jewish and Muslim side that Both Prophets
Pbut made mention on what happened to them during their miraculous event, yet
the same cannot be said of Jesus of the Bible as there is no mention if Jesus
telling his followers what happened. In fact, the New Testament was written
decades after Jesus, unknown people wrote about him through hearsay. There is no credibility for the New Testament
stories, especially when the authors were unknown writing what they heard. This
is alone dismantles the authenticity of the New Testament "gospels"
Finally, this is where their witness in the
Cave backfire on them. according to codex Sinaiticus folio 53 in the Book of
Isaiah this is how it reads:
"And the Book (or this/that Book) will
be delivered in Hira [to] an illiterate man, and one shall say to him: 'Read
this, and he shall say: 'I’m not learned.'"
[exactly what happened with Prophet Muhammad
in cave of Hira on receiving first revelation]
In Codex Sinaiticus, the original writer –
scribe B, section Isa 29:9-30:8, folio 53 - obviously wrote word first χιρα
(chira-in Arabic Hira), but later, the corrector (fabricators) identified by
scholars as Cb3, inserted a small epsilon (ε) and sigma (ς) in order to change
its meaning from indeclinable feminine proper noun, "Hira" (χιρα), to
a plural feminine noun in accusative case, "hands" (χειραϲ).

If you put in Google’s translator the English
phrase "In the cave of Hira" and choose translation to Greek, it will
give you the following result: Στο σπήλαιο της Χίρας (Sto spílaio tis Chíras).
As you can see, it uses exactly the same letters for the word Hira. Again, if
you put the Greek phrase το ειϲ Χιραϲ ανθρωπου from Sinaiticus, it will
translate it as "the man in Hira". And once again, if you put the
Greek phrase ον τουτο ειϲ χιραϲ you will find "being these in Hira"
etc. The most striking, however, is when you type χιρα or χιραϲ alone, and you
select translation to Arabic, the alternative rendering will be غار
حراء (ghar
Hira = the cave of Hira!!!):
----------------------------
Conclusion: Old Greek text of Isaiah 29:12
according to Codex Sinaiticus gives an invaluable testimony that the sealed
book shown to an illiterate man, took place in χιρα (Hira), and Google
Translator even clearly pinpoints that it is in Arabic غار
حراء (ghar
Hira), i.e. the cave Hira, which is a famous holy place located in the Meccan
desert where Prophet Mohammed (SAAW) received his first Quranic revelation, in
610 AD.
There you have it YOUR OWN BIBLE GIVES
WITNESS TO THE CAVE EVENT. Next time you want witness check up on the
manuscripts of codex Sinaiticus and you'll see how it not only prophesises, but
also testifies as a witness to the even in Cave Hira.
Also, see for self how your modern-day bible
changes the text and tried the conceal the truth.
