The Sun Sets in a Muddy Spring of Water and Clay
Until, when he reached the setting of the sun, he found it sun sets in a muddy spring. (Al-Kahf 18:86)
This bizarre Quranic gem from Surah Al-Kahf isn’t some poetic flourish—it’s a glaring red flag exposing Islam’s foundational fraud. Picture it: the sun, that massive fusion-powered star 93 million miles away, literally plunging into a grubby puddle of mud and water at the edge of a flat earth. Dhul-Qarnayn (likely a mangled retelling of Alexander the Great) stumbles upon this cosmic dunking hole during his world tour. Muslims twist themselves into pretzels claiming it’s phenomenological language or mere observer perspective, but let’s cut the nonsense. This verse screams ancient superstition, ripped from pagan myths and peddled as divine revelation by a 7th-century illiterate warlord (a pattern seen with other fables in the Quran, like the mythical dog Qitmir). In this exposé, we’ll shred the apologetics, dissect the Arabic, and reveal how the sun sets in a muddy spring isn’t wisdom—it’s proof the Quran is a satanic scam designed to dupe the gullible (ironically, the same chapter of the Quran presents the freedom to believe or disbelieve as a core choice).
The Ridiculous Tale of Dhul-Qarnayn and the Sun Sets in a Muddy Spring
Dhul-Qarnayn, Islam’s mystery man often shoehorned as Cyrus or Alexander, roams the earth like a cartoon explorer in Surah Al-Kahf. He builds a wall against Gog and Magog (zombie hordes in Islamic end-times fantasy), but first, he hits the west where the sun sets in a muddy spring. The Arabic wajadaha taghribu fi ‘aynin hami’atin uses wajadaha—he found it—implying direct observation of the sun hitting a murky hot spring (‘ayn hami’ah: black, clay-choked pool). Apologists babble about the Black Sea or Atlantic, but that’s damage control. The text paints a literal scene: sun dipping into mud, like a basketball into a hoop of slime.
This isn’t poetry. Ancient Arabs knew the sun vanished into the horizon; they didn’t need Allah whispering fairy tales. Muhammad plagiarized Syriac Alexander legends (from the Alexander Romance), where the hero finds the sun setting in a fetid sea. But the Quran amps the stupidity: it’s not just ocean—it’s a muddy spring. Why? Because Muhammad’s revelation was filtered through Jahiliyyah ignorance, Bedouin campfire stories, and satanic whispers (as the Quran itself admits in Surah 53:19-20 about Lat, Uzza, and Manat).
Contrast this drivel with real science: the earth rotates, causing apparent sunset via Earth’s 1,000 mph spin. No mud pits required. Yet Islam’s holy book freezes cosmology at Iron Age levels, mocking believers who swallow it (another example of this flawed cosmology is the hadith about the sun’s prostration). The sun sets in a muddy spring? Only if your god is a flat-earth fetishist.
Flat-Earth Folly: How Sun Sets in a Muddy Spring Betrays Quran’s Cosmology
Flat-earthers today cite sun sets in a muddy spring as proof, and they’re half-right—the Quran does endorse primitive geocentrism. Muslims screech metaphor! but the tafsir (exegeses) from Ibn Kathir, Al-Tabari, and Jalalayn describe it literally: a dark, boiling spring in the west, possibly near Azerbaijan or the ocean’s edge. Ibn Abbas, Muhammad’s cousin, said it’s a real place where sun enters nightly for rest. No spin about phenomenology there.
Critics get dismissed as Islamophobes, but facts don’t care. The verse mirrors Babylonian myths (sun boat into underworld waters) and Homer’s Oceanus. Muhammad, the unlettered prophet, regurgitated this pagan pablum without a clue. Elsewhere, Quran 18:90 has the sun rising from a muddy spring in the east—symmetrical idiocy for a disc world with edge ponds.
Quran defenders cite 79:30 (earth spread out like an ostrich egg) as spherical proof. Lie: dahaha means spread out, not spherical—ostrich eggs are oblong ovoids, but the verb implies flattening. 51:47’s expanding heavens is vague expansion, not Big Bang (stolen from Indian lore anyway). 36:38’s sun runs to its resting place? Tabari says it prostrates under Allah’s throne nightly. Satanic cartoon cosmology.
This isn’t harmony—it’s hoax. Maurice Bucaille’s 1976 scam-book Bible, Quran and Science whitewashed it, but even he dodged sun sets in a muddy spring, claiming refraction illusions. Newsflash: no amount of bending light turns the Pacific into muddy clay. Islam’s miracles crumble under scrutiny, exposing a book riddled with errors: sperm from backbone/ribs (86:6), stars as missiles (67:5), mountains as pegs stopping quakes (78:7, debunked by plate tectonics).
The Satanic Deception Behind Sun Sets in a Muddy Spring
Why peddle such fraud? Control. Islam demands blind taqlid (imitation), punishing doubt with death (apostasy laws in 12+ Muslim countries). The sun sets in a muddy spring trains Muslims to literalize absurdity, brainwashing them against reason. Recite Surah Al-Kahf Fridays for Dajjal protection? It’s cult programming to ignore flaws.
Muhammad’s revelations came via seizures (hadith: buzzing bells, sweating profusely). Sahih Bukhari 9:87:194: Sometimes it was (like the sound of) a bell… my heartbeats used to beat so severely. Epilepsy? Demonic possession? The Bible warns of false prophets with signs deceiving even elect (Matt 24:24). Quran’s scientific blunders—embryology from Galen (23:12-14: chewed flesh stage?), geocentrism (21:33: sun/moon orbiting earth)—scream fraud.
Archaeology laughs: No iron wall exists (18:96). Dhul-Qarnayn’s identity flops—Cyrus worshipped Marduk, Alexander was pagan bisexual. Islam’s Alexander fanfic erases history for hagiography.
Modern Muslims flee to ijaz (miracles), but sun sets in a muddy spring is anti-science poison fueling denialism. Turkish schools taught sun orbits earth until 2017; Pakistan’s textbooks still push flat earth vibes. Satan’s genius: cloak barbarism in science, addict followers to humiliation.
Exposing the Fraud: Historical and Scientific Smackdown
Dig deeper: ancient mariners saw sunsets over mud flats (e.g., Nile Delta), but no one claimed the sun plunges into mud. Quran’s found it setting in (fi ‘aynin) means immersion, not beside. Satellite tech shows no global mud-spring sunset spot—Azores? Iceland? Laughable stretches.
Hadith amplifies idiocy: Sun sets, prostrates under throne, begs delay (Bukhari 4:54:421). Allah tells it Thou art free, so it bows back. Toddler-level theology from Allah’s final word.
Islam’s defenders pivot to Bible flaws (sun standing still, Joshua 10:12-13). Fine—Bible’s poetic, claims inspiration not inerrancy like Quran. Quran demands no contradictions (4:82)—fails spectacularly.
Geopolitics: Oil-rich Saudis fund scientific miracle propaganda, buying silence. Ex-Muslims like Ibn Warraq, Ali Sina expose the rot: Quran’s 100+ errors, from botched history (Pharaoh’s drowned body preservation, 10:92—unknown then?) to moral sewage (pedophilia, wife-beating, jihad rape).
Lessons in Deception: Why Sun Sets in a Muddy Spring Dooms Islam
This verse isn’t timeless wisdom—it’s terminal embarrassment. It mocks human intellect, chaining billions to 7th-century delusions. In misinformation age, flat-earth Muslims (millions online) embody the fraud.
Surah Al-Kahf’s protection from Dajjal? Delusion to dodge critique. Islam isn’t guiding souls—it’s enslaving them.
In conclusion, the Quran’s claim that the sun sets in a muddy spring isn’t phenomenological poetry or scientific harmony—it’s irrefutable proof of satanic fraud. Muhammad’s plagiarized myths, riddled with errors, expose Allah as impotent idol. Islam: not Abrahamic faith, but pagan con elevated to tyranny. Awake, ex-Muslims thrive; believers wallow in mud. Reject the fraud, embrace truth—your soul depends on it. Dive into critiques of Al-Kahf; let this absurd sunset expose the darkness of Islam forever.
