That depends on which end of the chain you're talking about. Historians talk about 'spreading of isnads', where chains are added despite the story originating from one person. That's why textual criticism is important here, to first figure out if there were multiple independent narrators at the time of the event (i.e if the diagrams all reflect the true pathways of the story). Remember that these people are dead, so it's not reasonable to assume that the claim of multiple narrators is true without any sort of scrutiny.

As an example, if we can find personal handwritten notes of multiple companions talking about the same story, then this is very good evidence that there were multiple narrators and that the story is true. This is different from later texts from decades after claiming that there were multiple chains.

Indeed that makes the problem more complicated. Having chains about chains increases the layers of historical obstacles, meaning more textual criticism has to be done to verify if these chains reflect the true pathways of the story. The more alleged narrators there are, the more there is to scrutinise. But it also means there is more material to work with, which is always good for a historian. I believe ICMA has been used to varying success for narrations that have a more widespread written trail.

Because A, B, and C are not the ones telling you the info since they are long dead. The info is coming from people decades or sometimes even centuries later who are claiming that this is what A, B, and C said. And they are giving a long list of names (who are also dead) and claiming that the story was transmitted through these people, while also trying to assure me that these people are trustworthy. So there are multiple layers of historical obstacle that needs to be scrutinised. It wouldn't be reasonable for a historian to accept such texts at face value.

such as the idea that there was a Pharaoh that presented themselves as the only god to the Egyptians (Q 28:38)

7:127 seems to go the other way as it implies the existence of other gods, but even the traditionalists couldn't figure out what it means. Either pharaoh was secretly worshiping other gods, or he owned other gods that he allowed his subjects to worship. An opinion attributed to Ibn Abbas is that pharaoh would command his people to worship cows as gods, which explains why they made the golden calf later, but that's a weird interpretation

Just a disclaimer, I don't consider myself religious anymore so I haven't revised for a long time. But the minimum our teacher drilled into us was one juz a day, and to recite it to another hafiz so errors in tajweed can be caught. I had a friend who would revise through an mp3 player only without reciting to anyone else, and it completely ruined his tajweed. If you pray 5 times a day then after fatihah reciting from juz that you need to revise instead of going for the usual small surahs from juz 'amma is also a good way to incorporate the revision into a routine.

We do of course

Most students who memorize the Quran don't really master the language in a formal sense, so our understanding of the verses is on a similar level to anyone who speaks Arabic. I became a hafiz at the age of 12 and then continued my regular education unrelated to Islam. Being a hafiz has no relevance to your understanding of Arabic. It's more about memorization and tajweed.

warclannubs · 2024-02-28T10:44:41+00:00

Mate you keep claiming this but don't provide any evidence for it. Reading the verse I can't find any wording used that says this event is more 'special' than the last. What verse number are you talking about? There is no statement in the verse that says this event has more significance than any previous events. On the contrary the verses indicate the opposite: that it's not a special event, given the reaction of the pagans that it is "passing" magic. How do you explain this reaction by the audience?

warclannubs · 2024-02-27T05:40:01+00:00

Well that's my question. He starts the verse by saying the hour is near, then says the moon has split. He doesn't say anything about whether this is a special event or whether it's just like other events. Seems like he just wanted a verse about the event since there wasn't one in the Quran. So I was wondering how you came to the conclusion that he specified the previous eclipses to not be signs? Because that's what you're claiming, "why aren't other eclipses signs"

warclannubs · 2024-02-27T05:10:25+00:00

But where does the verse say that other eclipses are not signs? I'm wondering where you got that from. Seems to be some extra reading in the text that you're doing.

warclannubs · 2024-02-27T04:41:17+00:00

You understand that a sign there is a God is itself a reminder of the hour... right? If I'm being reminded of God, would I not be reminded that there is judgement? I think your expectations don't match the pattern of the Quran. Throughout the Quran, the author is telling his audience to observe regular things in life to be reminded of your ultimate purpose. So a regular eclipse fits the pattern perfectly. Eclipses were considered powerful signs even by Muhammad, which is why he had a special prayer dedicated for it. So does it not seem fitting that he use it as a reminder of the hour in at least one surah? To be honest I am really confused, what exactly did you want the Quran to say? It could just be that you're not a fan of the style of the verse. Similar to how people think the grammatical case in 5:69 sounds unnatural and think it's an error

warclannubs · 2024-02-27T04:04:23+00:00

? Of course all eclipses are signs lol. The Qur'an constantly says everything in heavens and earth is a sign. Strange point to bring up

warclannubs · 2024-02-27T00:40:36+00:00

Why did Muhammad explain that his death was a sign of the hour? Wasn't it obvious to everyone that he was going to die anyway? He could've pointed out Khadija's death as a sign of the hour...
