🧵 Nuzul (نزول) in the Holy Qur'an

Many Muslims believe Isa AS is alive and will fly down from the sky only because ahadith mention his descent in the latter days.

1. Contradicts Quran and Ahadith.
2. Ahadith don't mention descent from "sky/heaven". 1) NUZUL OF MUHAMMAD ﷺ

Quran mentions that the Prophet ﷺ was sent down. Did he also fly down from the sky as the non-Ahmadis imagine?

“.. Allah has indeed sent down to you a Reminder—A Messenger, who recites unto you the clear Signs of Allah ..”
[Quran 65:10-11]

🧵Is Isa AS alive? Raf'a Explained | Quran 4:158

Many Muslims claim this verse proves Isa AS has been physically alive in heaven for 2000 years:

بل رّفعه الله إليه
"Rather, Allah raised him to Himself"
[Quran 4:157]

Let's find out! 1) ❌ REFUTATION OF THE "SUNNI"/SHIA BELIEFS

The following 🧵 refutes:
1) Isa AS is alive since the verse says he was NOT killed/crucified
2) Isa AS was raised ALIVE to HEAVEN with PHYSICAL BODY

🧵 Is Isa AS alive? | Debnking non-Ahmadis on Quran 4:158

Many Muslims use Quran 4:157-158 as proof that Isa AS is alive in the Heaven with his physical body for 2000+ years.

Let's examine how they stretch, twist, and force meanings onto the verse to support their belief. 1) ✝️ NOT CRUCIFIED & NOT KILLED = ALIVE?

Argument:
Since Isa AS wasn't killed/crucified, he must be alive.

Reality:
By this logic, EVERYONE who wasn't killed/crucified is alive in heaven - including Muhammad ﷺ!

Absurd, isn't it?

🧵 Muslim Scholars: Tawaffa = Taking of the Soul

Non-Ahmadi Muslims claim that Ahmadis have done Tahrif of the Qur'an & invented their own translations of Qur'an regarding Isa AS.

Ahmad AS claimed that when Allah takes (does Tawaffa of) a human, it only means 'taking of the soul'. It NEVER means 'taking of the BODY'.
