A question for every Christian: What if the Quran said that Satan is God?
the letters of the so-called Paul and I say what would a Christian do if he found such nonsense in the Quran ...!! 2 Corinthians 4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. ( KJV)
I wonder who is the god of this age??? Let's go to the interpretations
Antonius Fikry’s interpretation ofthe God of this age = In the current state of rebellion in which humans live in this age, we find them worshipping Satan, the ruler of this world , as Christ called him (John 14:30 + John 16:11).

The Applied Commentary on the Holy Bible
The gospel is clear and declared to every human being except those who refuse to believe. The work of Satan is to deceive, and those who do not believe are blinded by Satan.
Tadros Yacoub Malaty's Commentary
What does he mean by the god of this world except the prince of this world (John 16:11) , for the kingdoms of the world and its glories have fallen under his authority (Matthew 4:8-9).

Barnes' Notes on the New Testament
The god of this world. There can be no doubt that Satan is here designated by this appellation;
http://www.studylight.org/com/bnn/vi...co&chapter=004
The commentaries have said that the god of this world is Satan ... There is no power or strength except with God.
Dr. William Barclay stated in his commentary that this belief is taken from the Zoroastrian religion.....
It doesn't end here... There is a much worse tragedy than this...
Let's go back to the origin of this number in the Greek manuscripts...
God in Greek means θεος (Theos) and is abbreviated as ΘC with a line above the letters... This site explains these abbreviations...

ΠΡΟΣ ΚΟΡΙΝΘΙΟΥΣ Β΄ 4:4 Greek NT: Westcott/Hort with
Diacritics ἐτύφλωσεν εἰκὼν τοῦ θεοῦ. ΠΡΟΣ ΚΟΡΙΝΘΙΟΥΣ Β΄ 4:4 Greek NT: Tischendorf 8th Ed. with Diacritics ἀπίστων δόξης τοῦ Χριστοῦ, ὅς ἐστιν εἰκὼν τοῦ θεοῦ. ΠΡΟΣ ΚΟΡΙΝΘΙΟΥΣ Β΄ 4:4 Greek NT: Textus Receptus (1894) εν οις ο θεος του αιωνος τουτου ετυφλωσεν του As everyone can see, the word did not come . θεος only.. . Rather, it came ὁ θεὸς (He is Theos), meaning the name of God is defined by the letter al... The devil took the word God defined by the letter al, so the matter is not limited to the god of this age... Rather, he is God and he is Theos, which is often translated as... .. God ..... for example Matthew 3:9 And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham as our father. For I say to you, that God is able from these stones to raise up children to Abraham. (KJV) yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham. (GNT) ἐγεῖραι ἐγεῖραι τέκνα I am a fan.
Let's see the translation of "He is Theos" in Matthew 3:9.

There is no power nor strength save with Allah... I know that the translator's hand failed to say that Satan is God , and for your information there is an English translation that translated it as God ... and it is the translation...murdock 04 to them whose minds the God of this world hath blinded, in order that they might not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of the Messiah (who is the likeness of God) should dawn upon the http://www.aramaicpeshitta.com/Arama...rdock_2cor.htm Everyone sees the capital letter G... and let us join the great scholar Adam Clarke... who laments his fate and is very surprised... how the word divinity is applied to Satan ...!! And we, by the Lord of the Kaaba, share the sorrows... in this calamity..... The Adam Clarke Commentary I must own I feel considerable reluctance to assign the epithet ὁ Θεος, The God, to Satan http://www.studylight.org/com/acc/vi...co&chapter=004 The Christian must know that Satan was called in his holy book _(he is Theos) and this word was never given to Christ because it was from Christ himself... nor from anyone other than Christ in the entire book??? And all this is done by Paul .. who was warning you of Christ and the Lord of the Kaaba, O Christians. Matthew 7:15 Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. 7:16 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? Yes, by their fruits you will know them.... The one who curses Christ and abolishes the law and calls Satan divinity ... and says at the top of his voice .. I tell you, I, not the Lord , this is the false prophet .. whom we know by his fruits ... as Christ told us. I ask now every Christian who is watching my topic ... For God's sake ... what would be your reaction if this verse was in the Quran ?? Would any Muslim interpretation be acceptable??? Or would you be certain that this book is from Satan and not from God ??? Ask any Christian how many episodes Father Zakaria Botros would have devoted if this verse was in the Quran ??? Ask any Christian which is the word of God ??? The words that Paul said or these words??? He said, “Then get out of it, for you are expelled … And indeed, upon you is the curse until the Day of Judgment. So fight the allies of Satan. Indeed, the plot of Satan has ever been weak. Did I not charge you, O children of Adam, that you not worship Satan? Indeed, he is to you a clear enemy.
