In his conferences, Abdul Madjid constantly led Muslims to believe that Christ’s mission was limited to the children of Israel and that Muhammad was sent to all of humanity. God’s plan of salvation for humanity through Christ is a well-structured program that must first begin with Israel and then extend to the other nations of the earth. But who really sent Muhammad? And to which people was he sent?
In Surah 27 verse 91, Muhammad says he was commanded to worship the Lord of Mecca. The verse reads as follows: “Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “I have only been commanded to worship the Lord of this city ˹of Mecca˺, Who has made it sacred, and to Him belongs everything. And I am commanded to be one of those who ˹fully˺ submit ˹to Him˺,.” Who was the Lord of Mecca at the time of the revelation of this surah? In Ibn Kathir’s tafsir, it is written that this surah was revealed before Muhammad’s conquest of Mecca. However, before Mecca was conquered, the god Hubal was the Lord of Mecca. And it was this god that Muhammad’s grandfather Abd al-Muttalib worshipped. So when Muhammad says in Surah 27, verse 91, that he was commanded to worship the Lord of Mecca, he really had no choice, since it was to the Lord of Mecca that his grandfather had dedicated him when he was still a baby (Seera Rasul-Allah by Ibn Hisham, page 50). This confirms that Hubal is indeed the Lord of Mecca when we look at Muhammad’s biography. (i.e., the seerat rassul-allah by ibn hicham), we read on page 45 that Hubal was the greatest god in the Arab pantheon. What is surprising is that Muhammad’s grandfather called the god Hubal “Allahu-Akbar,” meaning the greatest god. (Seera rassul-allah, page 45). Hubal had his statue inside the Kaaba itself. That is why all those who worshipped the god Hubal prayed in the direction of Mecca. If you pray in the direction of Mecca, know that it is the god Hubal that you are indirectly praying to. The worst part is that the symbol of the god Hubal is a crescent moon placed on a stake. Exactly as we see on mosques today. The Lord of Mecca is a deity specific to the Arabs, which is why prayers were always addressed to him in Arabic. Otherwise, think about it: the true God is the author of all languages and hears distinctly in all languages.
We now know that Muhammad was raised up by the Lord of Mecca. Islam is nothing more than the evolution of the cult of Hubal from the stage of the statuette to the stage of veneration through a possessed man. The lord of Mecca is in fact a deity specific to the Arabs. Allahu-Akbar means the greatest of all the Arab gods of Mecca. But what is most interesting is that several verses of the Quran confirm that the Quran is for the Arabs. Surat 42, verse 7 says: “And thus We have revealed to you an Arabic Quran, so that you may warn the Mother of Cities (Mecca) and its surroundings, and warn of the Day of Gathering, on which there is no doubt that one group will be in Paradise and another in the blazing furnace.” This verse clearly defines Muhammad’s mission and explains that the reason the Quran was revealed to him in Arabic was so that he could warn those in Mecca and its surroundings. Thus, the Lord of Mecca sent Muhammad to warn the Arabs. But why did the Lord of Mecca give the Quran to the Arabs?
Surat 6, verses 155 to 156 say, “And this is a blessed book, the Quran, which We have revealed, so follow it and be pious in order to receive mercy, lest you say, ‘The book was only revealed to two peoples before us, and we were inattentive to studying them’. The author of the Quran says here that if the Quran was sent to the Arabs, it was so that the Arabs would not say afterwards that they had not received a holy book to study like the Jews and Christians. Surat 12, verse 2 says, “We have sent down a Quran in Arabic so that you may reason.” How can you reason about something you do not understand?
Surat 41, verse 3 says, “A book whose verses are detailed and clearly explained, an Arabic Quran for people who know.” For people who know what language? The verses are clearly detailed and explained for whom? For Arabs. But why does the Quran insist so much on the fact that its verses are in Arabic for those who know Arabic? Surat 41, verse 44 tells us the reason. The Quran says this in this verse: “Indeed, those who deny the Reminder1 after it has come to them ˹are doomed˺, for it is truly a mighty Book. It cannot be proven false from any angle. ˹It is˺ a revelation from the ˹One Who is˺ All-Wise, Praiseworthy. ˹O Prophet !˺ Nothing is said to you ˹by the deniers˺ except what was already said to the messengers before you. Surely your Lord is ˹the Lord˺ of forgiveness and painful punishment. Had We revealed it as a non-Arabic Quran, they would have certainly argued, “If only its verses were made clear ˹in our language˺. What! A non-Arabic revelation for an Arab audience!” Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “It is a guide and a healing to the believers. As for those who disbelieve, there is deafness in their ears and blindness to it ˹in their hearts˺. It is as if they are being called from a faraway place.”
In this verse, the author of the Quran says that if he had given the Quran in a language other than Arabic, the Arabs would find an excuse that the verses are not clearly explained to them. And in Surah 43, verse 44, the author of the Quran says this to Muhammad: “The Quran is certainly a reminder for you and your people. And you will be questioned about it.” Here, he clearly tells Muhammad that the Quran is certainly a reminder for you and your people. The Quran is certainly for whom? You and your people. Muhammad is from which people? He is Arab. And you who are listening to me, which people are you from?
And finally, Surat 62, verse 2 says, “It is He who sent among the unlettered a messenger from among themselves, reciting to them His verses, purifying them, and teaching them the Book and wisdom, although they were previously in clear error.” And all these verses are in the Quran. But Abdul Majid never mentions them in his lectures. When we put all this together, what does it mean? The Lord of the Arabs chose from among the Arabs an Arab whom He inspired with a book in the Arabic language in order to make the Arabs His slaves for life.
