The Syro-aramaic meaning of the separated letters in the Quran

introduction:
ok, what is syriac language?
Syriac (/ˈsɪriæk/; ܠܫܢܐ ܣܘܪܝܝܐ[a] Leššānā Suryāyā), also known as Syrian/Syriac Aramaic, Syro-Aramaicor Classical Syriac,[9][10][11] is a dialect of Middle Aramaic of the Northwest Semitic languages of the Afroasiatic family that is written in the Syriac alphabet, a derivation of the Aramaic alphabet.

This Luxenberg thinks the Quran contains alot of foreign words and we have to look at their syriac root to get a more etymologicals basis since arabic itself has syriac roots, and if the syriac roots gave a different but better meaning or one the make more sense then that meaning should be used.


I was watching this documentary then I was astonished to how some muslims are insecure about their faith, can they even be considered muslims? since they against the spirit of Islam of free inquiry.


I did more research and came across this gem

this guy did simple internet research of the meaning of separated letters in the Quran in syriac language and he came with this :

verse surat Ar-Ra'd
means silence, speechlessness

verse surat hud، yunus، yusuf، Ibrahim, al hijr
meditate, ponder, reflect

verse surat taha
O mankind

verse surat maryam
in this manner to advice, or in this manner to provide consultation

The thesis suggested by him is nothing new as it is just another attempt of challenging the authenticity of the quran. Just have a read below to see just how absurd some of these new syro-aramaic exegesis are

A Christian Quran? A Study in the Syriac background to the language of the Qur’ān as presented in the work of Christoph Luxenberg


If the origin of Quran was indeed based on a christian syro-armaic language then why in world would the text refer to Abraham as a heathen and contradict the bible ? Abraham is described as a man of God, a man of faith in the bible and it's nonsensical to believe that any scripture that allegedly has it's origins in christian doctrine would contradict it. Luxenberg's core thesis is to show that Quran is nothing more than a Christian lectionary ie a list of selected scripture readings to be used in worship.

and it contains more non-Arabic words as well, such as,
أباريق: Persian
جدث: Hebrew
جهنم: hebrew
أبّا :Syriac
درهم"Dirham": Greek > drakhma
قسطاس: latin - > Custodia
حور عين: Syriac
قسورة: Amhra
المشكاة : Amhra
And more Indian, Berber and latin words. But most of these words have already a meaning in the time of prophet Mohamed, like Albaab in somali which came from arabic "Baab" and means door in both languages. So they are Arabic words that have been adopted.
