This aspect of Islam may seem rational, considering the abuse of alcohol can lead to social and health-related problems. However, when used in moderation, research suggests that there are numerous benefits in the consumption of alcohol, and an all-knowing deity would have been aware of this. The Jews and Christians are allowed to consume alcohol. The pagan Arabs before and shortly after their conversion to Islam also consumed alcohol. So why did Allah prohibit something that may be beneficial and which was an accepted norm among the religions before Islam? Furthermore, if the potential health risk of alcohol was the cause of the prohibition, why not also warn against the dangers of drinking milk?

Allah and Mary's Vagina ("Farj")
Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

In Qur'anic verses 21:91 & 66:12, Allah says that he breathed into Mary's vagina in order to conceive Isa (the Islamic Jesus). When looking at the tafsirs we find that Allah did this by sending the Angel Jibreel (Gabriel) to complete this task. The word "Farj" is used in these verses to indicate where Allah/Jibreel blew, and Farj means "vagina." The verse uses "Farjaha" which means "her vagina."

“...Allah sent the angel Jibril to Maryam, and he came to her in the shape of a man in every respect. Allah commanded him to blow into a gap of her garment and that breath went into her womb through her private part; this is how `Isa was conceived...” - Tafsir Ibn Kathir (read more)
