Magicians’ Miracles?
Moses turned all the waters to blood, fish died, river stank.
And the magicians of Egypt did so with their enchantments.
This raises questions about the Bible’s internal logic. If the miracle affected all water, magicians couldn’t duplicate it. Such logical flaws undermine claims of perfect preservation. Muslims emphasize this to contrast the Quran’s coherent account of miracles, reinforcing its credibility.
THE CHRISTIAN RESPONSE
Possibly not all water was turned to blood, leaving some for magicians to mimic. Or magicians used illusions.
THE ISLAMIC POSITION
Muslims highlight this logical inconsistency. If all water turned to blood, how did magicians replicate it? Such contradictions suggest human error. The Quran avoids such narrative gaps.
