Discover the untold story behind one of humanity's most iconic narratives-the flood. Waters of Judgment is a groundbreaking work that takes you on a journey through ancient texts, scientific discoveries, and cultural history to uncover the deeper meanings of the Biblical and Qur'anic flood stories. Dr. Mohammad M. Mandurah presents a bold and thought-provoking analysis, challenging traditional interpretations while offering fresh insights into theology, history, and science.
In this meticulously researched book, Dr. Mandurah explores:
- The Genesis Flood vs. Nuh's Flood: The Bible describes a global catastrophe that eradicated all life except for Noah and those aboard the Ark, while the Qur'an presents Nuh's flood as a localized event targeting a disbelieving community. This comparison reveals profound theological differences, emphasizing the Qur'an's clarity and focus on moral accountability.
- Scientific Evidence: Drawing on geology, hydrology, biology, and climatology, the book explains why modern science overwhelmingly refutes the possibility of a global flood as described in Genesis. The absence of uniform sediment layers, insufficient water volume, and the impossibility of rapid ecosystem recovery are explored in detail. In contrast, the Qur'an's localized depiction aligns with scientific findings, offering a narrative free from contradictions.
- Cultural Influences: The Genesis flood narrative shares striking similarities with earlier Ancient Near Eastern myths, such as the Epic of Gilgamesh and Atrahasis. Dr. Mandurah traces how these regional myths, shaped by Mesopotamian culture, influenced the biblical account during the Babylonian Exile and earlier interactions with Canaanite traditions.
- Theological Clarity: The Qur'an emphasizes divine justice, proportional punishment, and individual accountability, avoiding the logistical and scientific challenges of a global flood. Its focus on moral lessons and prophetic warnings offers a unique perspective that resonates with contemporary readers.
