       These should already have been removed. I already asked you to
       do this here:
  HTML https://trueleft.createaforum.com/volunteer/drafting-up-a-jamia/msg15285/#msg15285
       and you assured me it was done:
  HTML https://trueleft.createaforum.com/volunteer/drafting-up-a-jamia/msg15291/#msg15291
       So why am I still finding verses like these?
       Also:
       --- Quote ---
       > 116. And on Judgment Day God will say, “O Jesus, son of Mary!
       Did you ever ask the people to worship you and your mother as
       gods besides God?” He will answer, “Glory be to You! How could I
       ever say what I had no right to say? If I had said such a thing,
       you would have certainly known it. You know what is hidden
       within me, but I do not know what is within You. Indeed, You
       alone are the Knower of all unseen. 117. I never told them
       anything except what You ordered me to say: “Worship God—my Lord
       and your Lord!” And I was witness over them as long as I
       remained among them. But when You took me, You were the Witness
       over them—and You are a Witness over all things. 118. If You
       punish them, they belong to You after all. But if You forgive
       them, You are surely the Almighty, All-Wise.”’

       Why this one?

       Done. There was a synchronization error. I would also like to
       point out that Google Docs allows anyone with a link with Editor
       permissions to edit documents themselves, so feel free to make
       any changes to the document yourself. There were some verses
       that I couldn't remove from some of the passages to preserve
       full context.
       --- Quote ---
       > Why this one?
       --- End Quote ---
       Wanted to have the entire passage for context. Removed.

       "Done."
       Are you sure?
       --- Quote ---
       > Ayat 12-14: ‘12. Ask them, O Prophet, “To whom belongs
       everything in the heavens and the earth?” Say, “To God!” He has
       taken upon Himself to be Merciful. He will certainly gather all
       of you together for the Day of Judgment—about which there is no
       doubt. But those who have ruined themselves will never believe.
       13. To Him belongs whatever exists in the day and night. And He
       is the All-Hearing, All- Knowing.
       --- End Quote ---
       If it was really done, I would not have found this verse. Try
       again.
       "feel free to make any changes to the document yourself."
       The point of me checking your work in public is to expose the
       poor work ethic that has hampered our movement year after year.
       Now everyone can understand how it literally takes me more time
       to help volunteers do the work assigned to them than it would
       have taken me to do the same work myself, which is the opposite
       of what division of labour should be about.

       "Removed."
       And then immediately I found:
       --- Quote ---
       > Ayat 59: ‘With Him are the keys of the unseen—no one knows
       them except Him. And He knows what is in the land and sea. Not
       even a leaf falls without His knowledge, nor a grain in the
       darkness of the earth or anything—green or dry—but is written in
       a perfect Record.’
       --- End Quote ---
       The point is not for me to point out one by one which verses
       need to be removed, but for me to point out a certain line of
       reasoning for removal and then for you to remove all the verses
       in the document which fall under that same line of reasoning.
       Please make sure I don't find any more after this one before
       replying again.

       @90sRetroFan Would you consider a verse like this:
       --- Quote ---
       > To Allah alone bow down in submission all those in the heavens
       and the earth—willingly or unwillingly—as do their shadows,
       morning and evening.
       --- End Quote ---
       To be Judaic?

       OK, I went through the entire document and removed the requested
       verses, but there were some I couldn't remove (e.g. Qur'an 41:9)
       because they were either in the same verse as a Judaic passage
       or their removal would've also removed the context of the
       passage, so instead of deleting those verses altogether, I have
       disemboldened them. Please let me know if there are any I
       missed.

       Not necessarily Judaic, but not necessarily Mohammedan either.
       We can get back to this after we have removed all the Judaic
       verses first.
       "Please let me know if there are any I missed."

       I am sure there are more. Please try to find them yourself.

       I'll keep looking. I'll also post suggestions for passages
       slated for deletion.
