The Original Sin

What the Bible Says… 

For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners. so also through the obedience of the man the many will be made righteous (Romans 5:19).
… Christ died for our sins… (1 Corinthians 15:3).

… God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe. Jews demand miraculous signs and Greeks look for wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling-block to jews and foolishness to Gentiles, but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. For the foolishness of God is wiser than man's wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man's strength. (1 Corinthians 1:21-25). 

… If any one of you thinks he is wise by the standards of this age, he should become a "fool" so that he may become wise. (1 Corinthians 3:18). 



Contradicting Verses from the Bible…

The soul who sins is the one who will die. The son will not share the guilt of the father, nor will the father share the guilt of the son. The righteousness of the righteous man will be credited to him, and the wickedness of the wicked will be charged against him. 

But if a wicked man turns away from all the sins he has committed and keeps all my decrees and does what is just and right, he will surely live; he will not die. None of the offenses he has committed will be remembered against him. Because of the righteous things he has done, he will live. the Sovereign Lord … (Ezekiel 18:20-23). 



What the Qur'an Says…

Thus did Adam disobey his Lord, so he went astray. Then  his Lord chose him and turned to him with forgiveness and gave him guidance. (Qur'an 20:121,122).

Or is he not informed of what is in the Pages (Scripture) of Moses. And of Abraham who fulfilled (All that Allah ordered him to do or convey): that no burdened person (with sins) shall bear the burden (sins) of another. And that man can have nothing but what he does (good or bad). (Qur'an, 53:36-39). 



Commentary… 

The Qur'an says, "And He is Who accepts repentance from His slaves, and forgives sins,and He knows what you do". The Bible says, "But if a wicked man turns away from all the sins he has committed and keeps all my decrees and does what is just and right, he will surely live; he will not die. None of the offenses he has committed will be remembered against him .. Do I take any pleasure in the death of the wicked?"

The Qur'an confirms that both Adam and Eve repented of their sin and Allah forgave them. Even if Allah did not forgive them, does that mean the inheritance of sin and that all humans are born in sin!

The dogma of the Original Sin was only one of the inventions of Paul and it is against the Bible, the Qur'an and the teachings of the Prophets. It is against Allah's Law and all human laws. Prophet Jesus (pbuh) never taught his dogma!


  • The Bible says, "The son will not share the guilt of the father". 
  • The Qur'an says, "No burdened person (with sins) shall bear the burden (sins) of another. And that man can have nothing but what he does (good or bad)". 
  • Human laws do not punish the son for the crime of the father.
  • Everyone of us believes that the son should not be held responsible for what the father does. 
  • Why do we then reject all that and follow Paul. Paul himself admitted that this dogma was foolishness; so, why do we become fools and accept it?
