The Qu'ran also proves why Christianity is wrong... It simply says that the people before Islam changed the teachings of the Gospels and therefore the Gospels are corrupt.
Pharoah of Moses
The scientists were headed by Professor Maurice Bucaille. The scientists were trying to restore the mummy while Professor Maurice Bucaille was mainly concerned with how did this mummy die? The final report of the scientists was released late at night which states that the remaining salt in the mummy is an overt evidence that it was drawn in the sea, and the body was rescued very shortly where it was immediately embalmed to be saved.
An amazing thing was still confusing Professor Maurice Bucaille is that how could this body possibly be safer than any other mummy despite being taken out of the sea up until this time. Professor Maurice Bucaille was writing his final report on what he thought would be a new discovery about saving Pharaoh's body immediately after his death and embalming it.
Note: The picture shown above is the dead body of Ramses II, the Egyptian King in the era of Prophet Moses (pbuh). Its age is approximately 3000 years old and it was found by the Red Sea, at the place called Jabalain, and is now on display in the Royal Mummies Chamber of the Egyptian Museum in Cairo.
And there, someone whispered to him that Muslims claim to know something about the drowning of this mummy. Yet Professor Maurice Bucaille firmly denied such thing saying that it's impossible to discover this without the development of science and without using his high-tech and complicated laboratories and computers.
To his surprise, he was told that Muslims believe in a book called "Holy Quran" and this Holy Quran narrates the story of Pharaoh's drowning and ensures the safety of his body after his death as to be a Sign to mankind.
“We delivered the Children of Israel across the sea. Pharaoh and his troops pursued them, aggressively and sinfully. When drowning became a reality for him, he said, “I believe there is no god except in the One whom the Children of Israel have believed; I am a submitter. Too late! For you have rebelled already, and chose to be a transgressor. Today, we will preserve your body, to set you up as a lesson for future generations. Verily, many among mankind are totally oblivious to our signs.” (Holy Quran, from 10:90 to 10:92)

If the Exodus is a Myth,
why has the body of Pharoah been found with evidence that his death was the result of drowning?
Thutmose IV: Steven Collins (Executive Dean of Trinity Southwest University) has stated that he thinks Thutmose IV to be the most likely candidate for pharaoh of the exodus.
Horemheb (1319-1292 BC): Ahmed Osman surmised that he was the Pharaoh of the Oppression.[citation needed]
Ramesses I (c.1292-1290 BC): Surmised by Ahmed Osman to be the Pharaoh of the Exodus.[citation needed]
Ramesses II (c.1279-1213 BC) Also known as Ramesses the Great, he is the most commonly imagined figure in popular culture, but there is no documentary or archaeological evidence that he had to deal with the Plagues of Egypt or anything similar or that he chased Hebrew slaves fleeing Egypt. Ramesses II's late 13th century BC stela in Beth Shan mentions two conquered peoples who came to "make obeisance to him" in his city of Raameses or Pi-Ramesses but mentions neither the building of the city nor, as some have written, the Israelites or Hapiru.[7] Additionally, the historical Pithom was built in the 7th century BC, during the Saite period.[8][9]
Merneptah (c.1213-1203 BC): Isaac Asimov in his "Guide to the Bible" makes a case for him to be the Pharaoh of the Exodus
The many attempts to identify the proud Pharaoh of the Exodus have so far failed to provide convincing proof as to his identity.
Unlike the biblical pharoah, who was drowned in the Red Sea, Rameses II was buried in a tomb in the Valley of Kings. His body was later moved to a royal cache. Assuming there really was an Exodus from Egypt, which few scholars now accept, Ramses II could not have been that pharaoh, regardless of popular tradition.
By the time of his death, aged about 90 years, Ramesses was suffering from severe dental problems and was plagued by arthritis and hardening of the arteries.
Ramesses II was originally buried in the tomb KV7 in the Valley of the Kings but, because of looting, priests later transferred the body to a holding area, re-wrapped it, and placed it inside the tomb of queen Inhapy. Seventy-two hours later it was again moved, to the tomb of the high priest Pinudjem II. All of this is recorded in hieroglyphics on the linen covering the body.[57] His mummy is today in Cairo's Egyptian Museum.
t is believed that Ramesses II was essentially crippled with arthritis and walked with a hunched back for the last decades of his life.[62] A recent study excluded ankylosing spondylitis as a possible cause of the pharaoh's arthritis.[63] A significant hole in the pharaoh's mandible was detected. Researchers observed "an abscess by his teeth (which) was serious enough to have caused death by infection, although this cannot be determined with certainty".
Funnily enough, the Qu'ran does say that the body of Pharoah would be preserved as a warning to future generations.
Maurice Bucaille’s concordist theories have faced some criticism. William F. Campbell maintains that Maurice Bucaille does not evaluate the Qur'an with the same standards he uses to judge the Bible. Indeed, Bucaille demands that the Bible comply with 20th-century scientific language, while he finds acceptable that the Quran is not written with such scientific rigor, because the Qur'an, as he writes: “is expressed in a language that suits farmers or nomads of the Arabic peninsula”.[9] Thus, he claims Bucaille is not objective.[10]
According to Sameer Rahim, writing in The Daily Telegraph, Bucaille's "assertions have been ridiculed by scientists and sophisticated theologians".

Science proves the Abrahamic folklores wrong. Adam and Eve ... Impossible. Noahs Ark .... impossible. Exodus ... didn't happen. It's just that simple. The Abrahamic religions are WRONG. And therefore, since God doesn't get things wrong, those stories didnt' come from God. And if they didn't come from God, then those who claimed that God told them the stories, are just retelling telling old lies.
Very simple. The stories, and therefore the religions, are proven wrong.
"Given the genetic variation of people today, [Venema] says scientists can't get that [starting] population size below 10,000 people at any time in our evolutionary history," NPR reported.2 But this claim fails for three reasons. First, it relies on the presumption of "evolutionary history," not scientific data. Second, the idea that an initial group of 10,000 humans evolved from primates is mathematically impossible. Third, a descent from Adam and Eve actually does explain the patterns in modern human genetics.

It's not 'opinion'. It's fact. Adam and Eve have been proven not to have happened. Same with Noahs Ark. Same with Exodus. FACT - All three Abrahamic religions are wrong. And Muhammads Qu'ran is wrong because he copied stories from other religions that were wrong.

I did. It's not a pharoah let alone the alleged exodus pharoah.
some guy said it was ... but gave no proof and he has been proven wrong.
And a mummy couldn't survive 3000+ years in ocean water.
demus and lighteningstrikeshere ... all proven wrong.
I pity you people ... posting crap and giving each other stars for crap ... and refusing to see truth because the indoctrination you suffer from is too damn thick. Seriously pathetic. Evolve and educate yourselves ... or continue to wallow in ignorance. Your choice. I have proven you wrong.
