When a teacher fact-checks a student’s essay they are not handing back a plagiarized version of the essay, but rather, a fact-checked one.

So even if that is the case, it does not affect the Qur’an’s message or divinity in any way.Sharifhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03683966146725270053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5909131535009425348.post-73729807398048465212016-12-06T14:37:20.216-08:002016-12-06T14:37:20.216-08:00These clergymen mean it from a literary perspectiv...These clergymen mean it from a literary perspective, not from a historical one. Literary it's of course never a "borrowing", because the religious ideology beneath the Quranic story corpus (i.e. "dogmatic re-articulation") shaped the existing narratives to be of an "amending" purpose - it' pretty clear by itself for the most thinking sceptics, but it doesn't help the fact that these narratives existed before. And the critical point may emerge if sufficient evidence will be brought that the employed story couldn't have authentically gone back to a respective prophet's (say Jesus) time and had suffered from side influences afterwards.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09355750945752348730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5909131535009425348.post-57506167822250440472016-07-29T18:07:02.701-07:002016-07-29T18:07:02.701-07:00I think it could be taken as a parable rather than...I think it could be taken as a parable rather than a historical account, just like, for example, the story of the man of the two gardens earlier in the sura. The point in the case of parables is not whether they historically happened, but the lessons they convey. No one says, for example, that the Parable of the Good Samaritan, or the story of the man with the two gardens, must have been actual historical events, or else Jesus or the Qur'an are wrong. That would be completely missing the point of the parable.<br /><br />Similarly, I think that could be the case with the story of Dhu 'l-Qarnayn. On the other hand, a friend and mentor of mine has pointed out some significant ways in which the Qur'anic story departs from the Syriac legends, which might indicate the historicity of the Qur'anic account.
