The Challenge
And if you are in doubt about what We have sent down upon Our Servant [Muhammad], then produce a surah the like thereof and call upon your witnesses other than Allah, if you should be truthful.
Koran 2:23
Or do they say [about the Prophet], “He invented it?” Say, “Then bring forth a surah like it and call upon [for assistance] whomever you can besides Allah, if you should be truthful.”
Koran 10:38
Or do they say, “He invented it”? Say, “Then bring ten surahs like it that have been invented and call upon [for assistance] whomever you can besides Allah, if you should be truthful.”
Koran 11:13
Say, “If mankind and the jinn gathered in order to produce the like of this Qur’an, they could not produce the like of it, even if they were to each other assistants.”
Koran 17:88
33 Or do they say, “He has made it up”? Rather, they do not believe.
34 Then let them produce a statement like it, if they should be truthful.
Koran 52:33-34
The Islamic Challenge Paradox
First Challenger: Umar
My Lord agreed with me in three things: -1. I said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ), I wish we took the station of Abraham as our praying place (for some of our prayers). So came the Divine Inspiration: And take you (people) the station of Abraham as a place of prayer (for some of your prayers e.g. two rak`at of Tawaf of Ka`ba)”. (2.125) -2. And as regards the (verse of) the veiling of the women, I said, ‘O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! I wish you ordered your wives to cover themselves from the men because good and bad ones talk to them.’ So the verse of the veiling of the women was revealed. -3. Once the wives of the Prophet (ﷺ) made a united front against the Prophet (ﷺ) and I said to them, ‘It may be if he (the Prophet) divorced you, (all) that his Lord (Allah) will give him instead of you wives better than you.’ So this verse (the same as I had said) was revealed.” (66.5).
Sahih al-Bukhari 402, Book 8, Hadith 53
‘A’isha reported that the wives of Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) used to go out in the cover of night when they went to open fields (in the outskirts of Medina) for easing themselves.
‘Umar b Khattab used to say: Allah’s Messenger, ask your ladies to observe veil, but Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) did not do that. So there went out Sauda, daughter of Zarn’a, the wife of Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ), during one of the nights when it was dark. She was a tall statured lady. ‘Umar called her saying: Sauda, we recognise you. (He did this with the hope that the verses pertaining to veil would be revealed.) ‘A’isha said: Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, then revealed the verses pertaining to veil.
Sahih Muslim 2170 d, Book 39, Hadith 25
The Station of Abraham
And [mention] when We made the House a place of return for the people and [a place of] security. And take, [O believers], from the standing place of Abraham a place of prayer. And We charged Abraham and Ishmael, [saying], “Purify My House for those who perform Tawaf and those who are staying [there] for worship and those who bow and prostrate [in prayer].”
Koran 2:125
Veiling of the Women
And tell the believing women to reduce [some] of their vision and guard their private parts and not expose their adornment except that which [necessarily] appears thereof and to wrap [a portion of] their headcovers over their chests and not expose their adornment except to their husbands, their fathers, their husbands’ fathers, their sons, their husbands’ sons, their brothers, their brothers’ sons, their sisters’ sons, their women, that which their right hands possess, or those male attendants having no physical desire, or children who are not yet aware of the private aspects of women. And let them not stamp their feet to make known what they conceal of their adornment. And turn to Allah in repentance, all of you, O believers, that you might succeed.
Koran 24:31
O Prophet, tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to bring down over themselves [part] of their outer garments. That is more suitable that they will be known and not be abused. And ever is Allah Forgiving and Merciful.
Koran 33:59
Better Wives
Perhaps his Lord, if he divorced you [all], would substitute for him wives better than you – submitting [to Allah ], believing, devoutly obedient, repentant, worshipping, and traveling – [ones] previously married and virgins.
Koran 66:5
Joseph and the Cutting of the Hands
Surahs Like It
The Story of Joseph in the Koran is clearly derivative of the story of Joseph in Genesis 37 – 45, simplified, corrupted, mistakes made, Islamic preaching added in and even incoherent and nonsensical Islamic teaching and so on. Thus the “Surahs” better than the Koran are the Torah and Bible, the source of many of the stories Muhammad relates badly in his Koran. For many more examples of this, see Stories.

30 And he who believed said, “O my people, indeed I fear for you [a fate] like the day of the companies – 31 Like the custom of the people of Noah and of ʿAad and Thamūd and those after them. And Allah wants no injustice for [His] servants. 32 And O my people, indeed I fear for you the Day of Calling – 33 The Day you will turn your backs fleeing; there is not for you from Allah any protector. And whoever Allah sends astray – there is not for him any guide. 34 And Joseph had already come to you before with clear proofs, but you remained in doubt of that which he brought to you, until when he died, you said, ‘Never will Allah send a messenger after him.’ Thus does Allah leave astray he who is a transgressor and skeptic.”

A Psalm Like It
A psalm of David, a prophet of Islam, according to Muhammad.
1 The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. 2 He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, 3 he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. 4 Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. 5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. 6 Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

Surah Corona
By the eradicating virus. But they were surprised that it came to them from China far away. So the infidels (kafirun) said it was a stubborn disease. No, rather it is certain death. There is no difference today between the kings and slaves. So hold on to science and abandon traditions. And don’t go out to buy wheat. And stay home, for it is a strong scourge. And wash your hands with new soap. Almighty Djilou has provided this truth.

A Final Surah Like It
If you are in doubt about what Muhammad and friends have sent down upon Our Servant Muhammad, realise:
He invented it.
He copy/pasted it.
He has made it up.
Surah Copy/Paste 1:1
Met and Exceeded by Muslims
The Arabic of the Koran challenge (according to one Muslim online) followed by the English translation, is:
وَإِنْ كُنْتُمْ فِي رَيْبٍ مِمَّا نزلْنَا عَلَى عَبْدِنَا فَأْتُوا بِسُورَةٍ مِنْ مِثْلِهِ وَادْعُوا شُهَدَاءَكُمْ مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ صَادِقِينَ (23)
2:23 And if you are in doubt about what We have sent down upon Our Servant [Muhammad], then produce a surah the like thereof and call upon your witnesses other than Allah, if you should be truthful.
Quran 2:23-24
First, is the English translation of verse 2:23 the like of the Arabic 2:23? If it’s not, then the Koran can’t be translated, so the Koran is local and false, thus Muhammad, Allah and Islam are false. If it is, then the challenge has been met and exceeded by mere Muslims who produce the English translation, thus Muhammad, Allah and Islam are false. Remember that those Arabic words in Koran 2:23 were written by Muslim men – Muhammad’s Koran was oral. And let’s remember, that dots and vowels were added by Muslims to Arabic, later – thus an Arabic text with dots and vowels matches the challenge already. And remember that the original Koran was not meant to be written. All these steps show that the challenge has been met and exceeded by devout Muslims, thus Muhammad, Allah and Islam are false.
Also, what’s worse, the challenge is meta, yet, it’s in the Koran.
Another Opinion
Muhammad was a false prophet, for a false god, Allah, for a false religion, Islam, without even a false book, the Koran.
