If the impossible occurs...

If the impossible occurs, however, and he would do such the lord with his unlimited power would prevent him by taking his hand and then severing his aorta thus ending his life. Unfourtunately, however, these scholars relate that the lord gave Satan a free hand in this deed and the Prophet introduced similar verses in the Holy Quran based upon his suggestions, accepting them as Gods' verses!!

In view of this Quranic discussion to show the falsity and forgery of the Gharaniq fable, and keeping in mind the interpretation of the related verses, we have no need to say more and we need no more logical reasons regarding this matter. We will, however, take one more step in the way of research and study these traditions from other viewpoints. "The Transmitter Of The Gharaniq Fable Narratives".

Because of the brevity we had in mind for this discussion we will study the list of the transmitters of the "Gharaniq Fable" narratives from only one viewpoint and the time and occurance of the Surah "Najm" revelation, and whether they actually saw the event take place. This is to see whether this chain of transmitters actually go back to the actual event or not.

Just as we will see in this study notwithstanding the other weak points in the Sanad, none of the primary narrators of these tradition comprehended the time of this event, and from this viewpoint these narratives are worthless. As for the narratives are worthless.

As for the narratives we quoted from Tabaris Tafseer their chain of transmitters goes back to the persons listed below; The chain of transmitters for the first and second narratives go back to Mohammad ibn ka'b ibn Solim Qurayzi who was descended from the Jews of Bani Qurayza. He was born in the forthieth year after the migration meaning almost thirty years after the prophets death, and died in either 108 or 117 A.H. He is considered to be one of the Medinan followers (Tabein).

337 Mohammad ibn Ghais is the last transmitter in the chain of transmitters in Tabaris first narrative along with Mohammad ibn Ka'b. 338 He was the official religious spokesman during the rule of Umar ibn Abdul Aziz and died during the unrest and disturbances during the time of Valid ibn Yazid ibn Abdul Mulk, or approx. the year 126 A.H. The experts in the study of the transmitters count him as being one of the followers.
