Koranic prophesies?

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
Got sent this chain email by a friend, can anybody tell me if this passage actually exists in the Koran? sounds like a wind up big style but before I reply I would like the facts.


"This is something to think about! Since
America is typically represented by an eagle. Saddam should have read up on his Muslim passages...

The following verse is from the Koran, (the Islamic
Bible) Koran (9:11) - For it is written that a son of Arabia
would awaken a fearsome Eagle. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo, while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced; for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah; and there was peace.

(Note the verse number!) Hmmmmmmm?!"

    Sounds like a conpiracy theory to me. There was something about the flight numbers being a prophesy when you put it into windings font in Word.

    The Qu'ran has books just like the Bible, so if it was true I'm sure they'd be able to provide a better reference than that.

    And anyway, it seems to be saying that there will be peace when Islam is wiped out which doesn't seem right.

    Didn't the Soviet Union also have an eagle?

    I think if any kind of democracy can succeed in Iraq...it will revolutionize the Arab world. But I'm against the war because the militants and others...perhaps the Shiite feel democracies are wrong because their should be no laws above those of Allah.

    Right, well that was facinating. And more than likely total bollocks.

    It's not a question of whether the passage exists or not, or even that the word exisits in that place. Any idiot can try and make something significant out of anything.

    Nothing certain computer software can't do...

    It's exactly the same trick used by those people who 'discovered' the so-called Bible Code.

    They all ended up with rather red faces when a group of scientists found pretty similar 'miraculous' coincidences and predictions... in a copy of Moby Dick.
