Please pray for me, when you hear of my death. Pray Allah pardons me, shines His light in my grave and grant me paradise. Forgive me, if by any chance, I may have offended you. And if at the moment, I’m in any debt, reach out to my friends and family. 🤍🤍

Dear @DanBurmawy, I made a promise I won’t go hard on anybody today because apparently today is our Eid Celebration. But, Burmawi won’t let me. Your entire argument is a classic display of profound historical and textual ignorance, built on a desperate attempt to sound deep while completely misrepresenting both the Bible and the historical record. You call the Islamic position theological vandalism. Really? Funnily, you do not even realize you are defending a text that biblical scholars themselves have flagged for centuries as a compromised, heavily edited document. First of all, let me start with the unforgivable textual contradiction in Genesis 22:2, where your text says, "Take your son, your only son, whom you love—Isaac." Burmawi, anyone with a basic sense of logic can see the glitch here. Isaac was never, at any point in his life, Abraham’s only son. Ishmael was born fourteen years before Isaac. The only time Abraham ever had an "only son" was before Isaac was even born, when Ishmael was his single child. This is not even an Islamic argument; this is standard, objective biblical scholarship. Top Western theologians and textual critics, such as Dr. T.C. Mitchell (former Keeper of Western Asiatic Antiquities at the British Museum) and the renowned biblical scholar Dr. Robert Alter, have written extensively on how the Hebrew word Yachid (only/unique) in this text is completely irreconcilable with Isaac's historical position. The text explicitly demands a firstborn who was an only child for a period, which historically fits nobody but Ishmael. What you are reading is a clear case of later scribal interpolation, where later writers crossed out Ishmael's name and inserted Isaac to serve a nationalistic, tribal narrative. Unfortunately for them, they completely forgot to fix the "only son" blunder they left in the verse. lol 😂 Again, your attempt to reduce Ishmael to a mistake of "human performance" completely exposes your ignorance of the Old Testament itself. In Genesis 16:11, it is the Angel of the Lord who commands Hagar to name the child Ishmael, which means "God hears." God does not name mistakes. Also, in Genesis 17:20, God explicitly says, "And as for Ishmael, I have heard you: I will surely bless him; I will make him fruitful and will greatly increase his numbers. He will be the father of twelve rulers, and I will make him into a great nation." Dr. John Van Seters, a biblical historian noted here that the promises of greatness and covenant blessings given to Ishmael in the text run completely parallel to those given to Isaac. Therefore, calling Ishmael a product of mere human scheming is a direct contradiction of the very scripture you are trying to preach from. Let me also say that your reliance on Paul’s allegory in Galatians 4 to frame Ishmael as "the law and bondage" is a big chronological leap. Paul was simply writing an ideological polemic in the first century to convince a Roman-era audience to abandon Jewish legalism. So, using a first-century rhetorical allegory to rewrite a historical event that happened two thousand years before is not scholarship; it is a desperate theological spin, and that shows how ignorant and mischievous you are. Burmawi, note this: The Islamic narrative did not hijack or distort anything. Okay? It simply restored the story to its logical, geographical, and historical truth. Abraham was asked to sacrifice his firstborn, the child of his lonely old age, in absolute submission. You exchanged the historical firstborn for a younger son to fit your tribal exclusivity. Then you wrapped it in flowery language about “grace” versus “works” to hide the factual error. Next time you want to accuse an entire civilization of theological vandalism, try reading your own book with the lights on first. I hope this clears your mischief. Allah knows best.

Why Isaac, Not Ishmael? Today, Muslims around the world celebrate Eid al-Adha, believing it marks the moment Abraham was willing to sacrifice his son Ishmael. But this narrative, recast centuries later by Muhammad, hijacks the original account and distorts it. In the Bible, the foundation of both Jewish and Christian traditions, the son on the altar was not Ishmael, but Isaac. Ishmael was the result of human effort, Abraham’s attempt to fulfill God’s promise through his own performance, through Hagar, Sarah’s maidservant. It was a solution born out of impatience and control. But God’s redemptive plan was never about what man could do for God, it was always about what God would do for man. Isaac was the son of promise. He was born not through human scheming but through divine intervention. Sarah was barren. Abraham was old. His very existence was a miracle. Isaac represents grace, God doing the impossible, fulfilling His covenant not through man’s effort, but through His own power and faithfulness. The apostle Paul said that Hagar, the mother of Ishmael, represented Mount Sinai, where the law was given, a symbol of human striving, condemnation, and bondage. But Sarah, the mother of Isaac, represented Jerusalem above, freedom, grace, and divine sonship. Ishmael is law; Isaac is gospel. If God had asked Abraham to offer Ishmael, it would mean He was demanding a sacrifice born of human effort. But He wasn’t. He was foreshadowing the ultimate sacrifice, Christ, the Lamb of God, also born of a miraculous promise, also offered by His Father on a hill. Isaac was the prototype of substitutionary atonement. He symbolized the Son not born of the flesh but of the Spirit, God’s initiative, not man’s. To replace Isaac with Ishmael is theological vandalism. It exchanges grace for works, divine election for human performance, and the gospel for law. That’s why Isaac, not Ishmael. Because salvation was never meant to begin with our striving, it was always meant to begin with God’s promise.

Eid ul Adha is a reminder that nothing should be loved more than Allah. Not a person. Not your desires. Not this dunya. Because the story of sacrifice was never just about ibrahim[AS] and ismael[AS], it's also about us and what we're willing to give up for Allah.

My hot take (and it's not even that hot), is that voter registration (especially how it's done in Nigeria) is voter suppression.
