Maybe Quran should decide, which one is it? Do they come from god as a test (64:11) or do we cause it upon ourselves due to our actions (42:30)?
@BittersweetPotato When the Quran mentions both, it means both.
Yes we come from God as a test.
That's not the right verse, (64;11) is this:
And (42:30) has a reason behindit, because nothing is commanded or done without a reason.
@MuslimBarbie Why do you say it is not the right verse?

@BittersweetPotato Sounds like if you misbehave, then you're given a test to redeem yourself. So you obviously deserve it. Yet God is forgiving, but to some extent only. 🤔 I need aspirin. 🥴

And what is exactly the logic behind having verses that contradict each other? Just to confuse people? Or to provide arguments that suit all sorts of tastes? Like for example, you would find arguments in the Quran for fanatics, and also for moderate Muslims. Simply because the Quran mentions all types of arguments that go against each other.

Does this also apply to everything else contradictory in the Quran, whereby there is usually one advice and exactly its opposite? Like do not kill people, but also kill them. Respect women, but also hit them. etc etc.?


I did mention the right reference for the verse, it is from Surah At-Taghabun which is (64;11)
