So the words are not both mentioned 6 times. | So the words are not both mentioned 6 times. | ||
=="Muhammad" and "sharia" both mentioned 4 times== | |||
The word Muhammad (مُحَمَّد) appears in 4 verses: | |||
* 1) 3:144 "And '''Muhammad''' is no more than a messenger; the messengers have already passed away before him; if then he dies or is killed will you turn back upon your heels? .." | |||
* 2) 33:40 "'''Muhammad''' is not the father of any of your men, but he is the Messenger of Allah and the Last of the prophets; and Allah is cognizant of all things." | |||
* 3) 47:2 "And (as for) those who believe and do good, and believe in what has been revealed to '''Muhammad''', and it is the very truth from their Lord, He will remove their evil from them and improve their condition." | |||
* 4) 48:29 "'''Muhammad''' is the Messenger of Allah, and those who are with him are severe against disbelievers, and merciful among themselves.." | |||
In the next section, a specifically Arabic letter ع (ayn), that has no equivalent in the English alphabet will be transliterated as "AA". | |||
The word "sharia" (شَرِيعَة) appears in one verse: | |||
* 45:18 "Then We put you, [O Muhammad], on an '''ordained way''' (شَرِيعَةٍ, ''shareeAAa'') concerning the matter [of religion]; so follow it and do not follow the inclinations of those who do not know." | |||
There are other 3 verses containing words derived from the same trilateral root شرع (sh-r-AA), but they are not "sharia": | |||
* 1) 5:48 ".. So judge between them by what Allah has revealed and do not follow their inclinations away from what has come to you of the truth. To each of you We prescribed '''a law''' (شِرْعَةً, ''shirAAa'') and a method. Had Allah willed, He would have made you one nation [united in religion], but [He intended] to test you in what He has given you; so race to [all that is] good.." | |||
** This word is ''shirAAa'' not ''shareeAAa''. Although the meaning is similar, they are not the same words. | |||
* 2) 42:13 "'''He has ordained''' (شَرَعَ, ''SharaAAa'') for you of religion what He enjoined upon Noah and that which We have revealed to you..." | |||
** In this case it is a verb! It is from the same root, but it is not the word (noun) ''sharia''. | |||
* 3) 42:21 "Or have they associates who '''have prescribed''' (شَرَعُوا۟, ''sharaAAoo'') for them any religion that Allah does not sanction? .." | |||
** Again this is a verb and it is not the word ''sharia''. | |||
There is also one occurrence of a word derived from the same root شرع, which however has a totally different meaning: | |||
* 7:163 "And ask them about the town that was by the sea - when they transgressed in [the matter of] the sabbath - when their fish came to them '''openly''' (شُرَّعًا, ''shurraAAan'') on their sabbath day, and the day they had no sabbath they did not come to them. Thus did We give them trial because they were defiantly disobedient." | |||
So the word "Muhammad" is mentioned 4 times, but the word "sharia" is mentioned only once. | |||
