Questionable Teachings of Islam:

One Billion People Deceived

Another theological discrepancy between Allah and Yahweh is regarding the specific color
of the heifer that is to be offered in the cleansing sacrifice. Islamic theology states that
Allah requires a "Yellow" heifer, but in the Torah, Yahweh instructs Moses to offer a pure
"Red" heifer. Herein are the instructions from both views:

The Qur'an reads:

"They said: Pray for us unto thy Lord that He make clear to us of what colour she is.
(Moses) answered: Lo! He saith: Verily she is a yellow cow. Bright is her colour, gladdening
beholders." (Qur’an: 002.069) - Some translations of the Qur'an state that the desired
heifer is to be Taupe in color.

The Torah reads:

“And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
This is the ordinance of the law which the LORD hath commanded, saying, Speak unto the
children of Israel, that they bring thee a red heifer without spot, wherein is no blemish,
and upon which never came yoke:” (Numbers 19: 1-2)

Here again we have Islamic and Judaic theology conflicting on God's instructions that were
given to Moses. However, the color of the heifer must be of significant importance in that
it determines the only one that can be acceptable to God as an offering during the Temple
rites. Did God require Moses to acquire a "Yellow" heifer or a "Red" heifer?
