You can't do religious flamewar like this on HN, regardless of which religion is being discussed. No more of this, please.

So za3faran can just lie about islam and you punish me for correcting his lie?

You didn't correct anything. My email is in my profile if you wish to have a proper academic discussion with primary sources.

The qur'an verse and Ibn Kathir's tafsir are not enough for you?

Not at all. I'm asking you to refrain from religious flamewar (or any flamewar) on HN, and to stick to the rules when commenting.

If you expect moderators to adjudicate complex questions of religious scholarship, we can't: we're unqualified, and it's not our job. We prefer to stick to things that (a) are our job, which (b) we're qualified for. Those tasks are altogether more mundane, such as telling HN users they're not allowed to put down entire religions or each other.
