They Compare Allah’s Light to a Lamp in a Niche Lit by Olive Oil
In the so-called heart of the Quran, Surah An-Nur (24:35) peddles one of its most laughably pretentious metaphors for what it calls Allah’s Light: a pathetic oil lamp stuck in a wall nook, fueled by olive oil. The verse drones on: Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The example of His light is like a niche within which is a lamp, the lamp is within glass, the glass as if it were a pearly white star lit from the oil of a blessed olive tree, neither of the east nor the west, whose oil would almost glow even if untouched by fire.
This isn’t divine poetry—it’s a crude, earthly sideshow masquerading as profundity. Muhammad, the self-proclaimed prophet of 7th-century Arabia, compares the supposed Creator of the universe to a flickering bedside lantern? Critics rightly demolish this as materialistic drivel, and for good reason: it exposes Islam as the satanic fraud it truly is—a pagan mishmash stolen from Jews, Christians, and Zoroastrians, repackaged to deceive the gullible. Far from masterful eloquence, this verse screams human invention, riddled with absurdities that no omnipotent God would stoop to. Let’s rip apart this dim bulb of deception, layer by ridiculous layer, and shine the real light of truth on Allah’s Light—revealing it as Satan’s counterfeit glow.
The Fraudulent Symbolism of Allah’s Light: A Dingy Niche, a Smoky Lamp, and Pagan Fuel
At its rotten core, the Allah’s Light metaphor starts with a niche (mishkat)—just a cheap recessed hole in a mud-brick wall, like those in every grubby Arabian hovel or mosque. Muhammad pretends this protects and focuses the light, but it’s a joke: real divine light wouldn’t hide in a corner; it would blaze across creation without limits. Instead, we’ve got a puny lamp (misbah) trapped in glass (zujajah) that supposedly shines as if it were a pearly white star. Pearly white? Stars don’t twinkle like greasy glass orbs smeared with olive residue—they’re massive fusion furnaces. This is pagan kitsch, not revelation.
The fuel is the punchline: oil from a blessed olive tree, neither of the east nor the west. Olives? Sacred in the pagan Near East, sure, but tying Allah’s Light to a mundane fruit tree? Muhammad rips this from pre-Islamic lore, where olives symbolized fertility gods, and slaps on a universal twist to sound profound. The oil almost glows even if untouched by fire? What nonsense! Olive oil doesn’t self-ignite; it needs a wick and flame, just like any peasant’s lantern. Muhammad’s claim of near-spontaneous luminescence is pure fantasy—no chemistry, no miracle, just illiterate boasting from a desert warlord who couldn’t invent a better analogy if his life depended on it.
Islamic apologists like Ibn Kathir babble that this represents faith in believers’ hearts, while Al-Ghazali spins Sufi fairy tales of spiritual hierarchies. Prophets with full blaze? Saints with steady flame? It’s cultish drivel, reducing eternity to a grease fire. Imagine your soul’s lamp—does it flicker out when you’re not praying five times a day? This isn’t introspection; it’s psychological manipulation, trapping followers in endless rituals to rekindle their dim faith. Allah’s Light isn’t transcendent; it’s a satanic trap, mimicking true divine radiance to lure souls into idolatry.
Why the Allah’s Light Metaphor Proves the Quran’s Satanic Plagiarism
Islam’s cheerleaders whine that skeptics miss the brilliance, but they’re the blind ones. Detractors nail it: likening the galactic Creator to a 7th-century oil lamp is blasphemous diminishment. How can God be a lantern? they mock—and they’re spot on. Muhammad’s defense? God speaks in the language of his people (Quran 14:4). Convenient excuse for mediocrity! In Muhammad’s backward era, olive lamps were everyday junk—no electricity, sure, but why not aspire higher? A real God wouldn’t pander to illiterates with such trash.
Worse, Allah’s Light reeks of theft. The Quran plagiarizes the Bible wholesale: God as light in Psalm 27:1 (The Lord is my light), His word as a lamp unto my feet (Psalm 119:105), Jesus as a light to lighten the Gentiles (Luke 2:32). Zoroastrianism, rife in Sassanid Persia, worships fire temples as divine light—eternal flames in niches! Muhammad, the caravan trader exposed to Jews, Christians, and Persians, cobbles this into his Meccan fanfic. Tafseer exegesis over centuries? Just desperate damage control for a borrowed blunder.
Apologists crow about scientific miracles—olive oil’s clean burn from oleic acid, predating science by 1,400 years. Laughable fraud! The Quran doesn’t describe chemistry; it lies about self-glowing oil. Modern tests show olive oil needs ignition—yukādu yūḍi’u (it almost glows) is poetic puffery for a substance that smokes and sputters. No prescience here, just Muhammad’s tavern tales from Byzantine markets. This Allah’s Light isn’t timeless truth; it’s Satan’s mockery of Christ, the true Light of the world (John 8:12), who needs no niche or oil—He IS the radiance piercing eternal darkness.
Exposing the Hypocrisy: Allah’s Light as Moral Blackmail
Contextually, Surah An-Nur rails against hypocrites in Medina (24:33-40), painting unbelievers as stumbling in darknesses, one upon another, like lost divers. Allah’s Light supposedly pierces veils, but it’s coercive tyranny: obey or burn. Practical power? Superstition! Recite Ayat an-Nur for protection from jinn? Hadith hawking home blessings? That’s animistic witchcraft, not godliness. Taqwa (fear-consciousness) turns sinners into stars? No— it breeds terrorists cloaked in piety.
On Judgment Day, believers walk by Allah’s Light over Hell (57:12)? Eschatological terror tactic, straight from Satan’s playbook. Archaeological proof like Umayyad niches? Circular—Muslims built them to ape the verse, propping up their hoax. Mosques with mihrabs teaching the illiterate? Indoctrination niches for the brainwashed masses, echoing Allah’s Light‘s dim glow over conquered lands.
The Laughable Relevance of Allah’s Light in the Modern World
Today, amid LEDs and lasers, Muhammad’s olive lamp is a relic of ridicule. Neon cities drown this quaint nonsense, yet Islam insists on its authenticity against existential voids. Try their stunt: light an olive lamp at Fajr, watch the wick choke on impure oil, shadows dancing like demons in the smoke. Self-glow linked to Quran 95:1’s olive oath? Pagan tree worship, period—Allah swears by figs and olives like a fertility idol.
Critics’ material objections aren’t crumbling; they’re vindicated. The like (ka-mithāli) simile? A cop-out for the Quran’s confinement of God to finite props. Allah’s Light claims to illuminate heavens and earth, yet it’s chained to earthly dross—exposing Islam’s creator as finite, fraudulent, and fiercely jealous of the true Light.
Unveiling the Satanic Core of Allah’s Light
Dig deeper, and Allah’s Light unmasks Islam as Satan’s grand deception. The Bible warns of false lights (2 Corinthians 11:14)—Satan as an angel of light. Muhammad’s niche-lamp is that exact counterfeit: olive oil from a neither east nor west tree mimics Christ’s universal salvation, the glass star apes heavenly glory, the self-glow parodies resurrection life. But it’s hollow—all wick, no eternal flame. Jesus healed blind eyes with true light (John 9); Muhammad’s had epileptic fits called revelations.
Historically, this fraud fueled conquest: mosques blazed with Allah’s Light as swords spread Sharia’s shadow. Today, 1.8 billion souls grope in its flicker—jihadists, burqa-bound women, suicide bombers—all kindled by this satanic spark. Archaeology? Umayyad niches mark Islam’s blood-soaked empire-building, not divine design.
Scholars’ hierarchies? Al-Ghazali’s mysticism devolved into dervish dances and tomb worship—idolatry exposed. Ibn Kathir’s faith light? Blown out by Islam’s fruit: 270 million dead in jihads, honor killings, apostasy murders. No barakah here—just curses.
Reclaiming True Light from Allah’s Fraudulent Glow
Allah’s Light isn’t a living beacon; it’s a dying ember of deception, from Muhammad’s cave hallucinations to modern madrasas. Critics triumph: it transforms the sublime into the satanic ordinary—a niche-lamp for demon-worshippers groping in digital-age darkness. Islam’s oil—impure, directional-biased, fire-dependent—extinguishes under scrutiny’s blaze.
Awaken! Discard this fraud. The true Light—Jesus Christ—needs no olive tree or glass prison. He declares, I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life (John 8:12). No rituals, no fear—pure, boundless radiance. Expose Allah’s Light as the satanic sham it is: a 7th-century con exposing Islam’s dark heart. Turn from the niche’s gloom; embrace the eternal dawn.
