π Top 10 Qur’anic Verses Abrogated by Other Qur’anic Verses
Proof That the “Perfect Book” Edited Itself — Repeatedly
π§ Introduction: What They Won’t Admit
Muslims are taught the Qur’an is:
-
Perfect,
-
Preserved,
-
Timeless,
-
Unchanging.
But the Qur’an also says:
“Whatever verse We abrogate or cause to be forgotten, We bring one better or similar to it...”
— Surah 2:106
That means verses were:
-
Replaced by new ones,
-
Contradicted or cancelled outright,
-
By Allah Himself.
So here’s the truth:
The Qur’an cancels itself.
And here are 10 undeniable examples — using only Islamic sources — where Qur’anic verses were abrogated by other verses.
π Surah 2:180 vs. Surah 4:11–12
π§© Inheritance
-
Old verse (2:180): Says to write a will for parents and relatives.
-
New verses (4:11–12): Lay down fixed shares, overriding personal wills.
π Result: Allah replaced flexible guidance with rigid math.
➡️ Wasiyyah (wills) got abrogated by inheritance law.
9️⃣ Surah 2:109 vs. Surah 9:5
π️ Forgiveness vs. Fight
-
Old verse (2:109): “Forgive and overlook until Allah brings His command.”
-
New verse (9:5): “Kill the polytheists wherever you find them…”
π Result: The peaceful option was temporary.
➡️ The “command” that came was warfare.
8️⃣ Surah 2:256 vs. Surah 9:29
π No Compulsion in Religion?
-
Old verse (2:256): “There is no compulsion in religion…”
-
New verse (9:29): “Fight those who do not believe... until they pay the jizya...”
π Result: Freedom of belief abrogated by violent enforcement.
➡️ Muslim scholars like al-Naskh confirm this.
7️⃣ Surah 8:65 vs. Surah 8:66
⚔️ Battle Ratios
-
Old verse (8:65): 20 believers can defeat 200.
-
New verse (8:66): Now 100 believers = 200 enemies.
π Result: Allah downgraded his expectations.
➡️ Why? Because the believers were “weak.”
A perfect God wouldn’t overestimate His people.
6️⃣ Surah 4:15 vs. Surah 24:2
π Adultery Punishment
-
Old verse (4:15): Women guilty of adultery to be confined for life.
-
New verse (24:2): Flogging with 100 lashes.
π Result: Eternal imprisonment replaced with corporal punishment.
➡️ Divine justice… or legal evolution?
5️⃣ Surah 2:184 vs. Surah 2:185
π Fasting Flexibility
-
Old verse (2:184): Sick people or travelers may delay fasting or pay ransom.
-
New verse (2:185): Now they must fast on other days — ransom no longer an option.
π Result: Early leniency cancelled by stricter law.
➡️ Allah tightened the screws mid-ramadan.
4️⃣ Surah 60:8–9 vs. Surah 9:5
π€ Be Kind to Non-Muslims?
-
Old verses (60:8–9): Be kind to peaceful disbelievers.
-
New verse (9:5): “Kill the polytheists wherever you find them…”
π Result: Kindness got replaced with slaughter.
➡️ The infamous "Sword Verse" didn’t just abrogate — it bulldozed.
3️⃣ Surah 2:62 vs. Surah 3:85
π Salvation for All?
-
Old verse (2:62): Jews, Christians, and Sabians who believe will be saved.
-
New verse (3:85): “Whoever seeks a religion other than Islam, it will never be accepted...”
π Result: Salvation doctrine reversed.
➡️ Inclusive promise replaced by exclusivity.
2️⃣ Surah 73:1–4 vs. Surah 73:20
π―️ Length of Night Prayer
-
Old command (73:1–4): Spend most of the night in prayer.
-
New command (73:20): Now you can pray as much or as little as you can.
π Result: The burden was too heavy — so Allah walked it back.
1️⃣ The Stoning Verse (No longer in the Qur’an)
πͺ¨ The Missing Verse
“If a man and a woman commit adultery, stone them to death.”
-
Confirmed by Umar ibn al-Khattab, Aisha, and multiple Hadiths.
-
Umar said: “It was part of the Qur’an, but we forgot it.”
π Result: A Qur’anic verse that was abrogated and erased — but still applied as law.
➡️ Wait — it’s not in the Qur’an anymore… but it still counts?
That’s not divine preservation. That’s divine deletion.
π Summary Table
π Verse | π§Ή Abrogated by | π£ Contradiction |
---|---|---|
2:256 – No compulsion | 9:29 – Fight unbelievers | Religious coercion legalized |
2:62 – Jews/Christians saved | 3:85 – Only Islam accepted | Salvation flipped |
4:15 – Confine adulterers | 24:2 – Lash them | Eternal prison replaced by corporal punishment |
8:65 – 1:10 battle ratio | 8:66 – 1:2 battle ratio | God lowered the bar |
60:8 – Be kind to unbelievers | 9:5 – Kill the polytheists | Peace to bloodshed |
π₯ Final Verdict
A perfect, timeless revelation wouldn’t contain contradictions, reversals, and cancelled laws.
But the Qur’an is riddled with abrogations — proof that it wasn’t revealed all at once… and certainly not by an all-knowing deity.
This isn’t divine revelation.
It’s a document in constant revision.
π¬ Mic-Drop Closer
“If the Qur’an was perfect, it wouldn’t need replacement parts.
But verse after verse gets overwritten.
That’s not revelation — that’s a retraction.”
