Responce: So here are the first two days.

>verse 10. says that the earth
>WAS BEING CREATED. Allah says
>"He set on the (earth),
>mountains standing firm", and as
>such, HOW can the WHOLE
>EARTH be CREATED in ENTIRETY
>if He is "setting firm
>standing mountains" on it? that
>would mean it was INCOMPLETE
>at that time.

Responce: No, I disagree. Had the first period been four and the second two, the second could be included in the first since filling the earth is part of creating the earth. But it's not it says the earth was created in two the mountains and blessings in four.


>verse 10. also says that He
>CREATED and BLESSED the earth,
>and MEASURED its sustenence in
>FOUR DAYS. it doesnot say
>WHAT and WHICH He did
>in HOW MUCH time. so
>within those FOUR DAYS, the
>earth was completed in TWO.
>
Responce: No, but it does say the mountains and bestowed blessings and nourishment took four days. Seperated from the two days that he created the earth.

>
>4 DAYS (including the TWO of
>which the earth was CREATED
>IN )to "set on the
>(earth), mountains standing firm, high
>above it, and bestowed blessings
>on the earth, and measure
>therein all things to give
>them nourishment in due proportion.
>(41:10)"

Responce: THis would work if the first period were four days but the first period is two days seperated from the four.

Responce: But, explain this to me.The Qur'an solves the problem by saying that Allah used divine exclusion.But how does this happen in light of sura 37:77. Does'nt this show that it is impossible even for God that a biological son looses the property of being the seed of his father. " And made his "seed the survivors"(of the Flood) is still difficult to reconcile with Allah's answer in Sura 11:46.Also in sura 11:46 it is clear that Noah found some who believe his message and followed him. This can be found in in Sura 7:64. Those in the Ark are contrasted with those outside thie ark(those who rejected).So why are these people not saved as well. Also Noah calls out his son to embark the Ark. So he was not one "against whom the word has already gone forth". since then Noah would not have called him in disobidience to Allah's command. Noah had no knowlegde(until Allah's responce in 11:46), that he was not part of his family. . This inclusion-exclusion thing in complicated.Also this contridicts the Torah account completly where all of his family is saved. (eight people total).

But the way I've got a lot of contridictions in the Qur'an if your interested in trying to answer some of them just give me the word. I really don't worry to much about these things anymore because there always going to be more and more added the more and more you look. There are other more serious problems I have with the Qur'an, and Islam, and Mohammed. But if you want to talk about contriditions like I said I've got a lot of them.
