M S M Saifullah, c Abd ar-Ra h h ammad Ghoniem, c Last Updated: 9th September 1999 Assalamu 'alaikum wa rahamatullahi wa barakatuhu: This work is an addition to the refutation of Joseph Smith's apolegetic paper by c Abdur Ra h This position is now taken by Christian missionaries such as Jospeh Smith whose methodology has been well exposed by c Abdur Ra h Briefly, this work is about showing the evidence in writings, coins and inscriptions of pre-200 years AH. They are King Offa's gold coin, John of Damascus, the first Christian polemicist and Arabic inscription which are dated before 200 year AH. Gold Coin Of King Offa King Offa of Mercia (757-96CE) was the most powerful and successful of all the Mercian kings. He dominated England, and his power was acknowledged on the Continent by the great Charlemagne himself. Offa also made a significant contribution to the English coinage when he introduced his silver penny these coins were probably minted in Cantebury and influenced the design of english coins for many centuries. When a hoard of some 300 coins were found during excavations for a new school in 1877 more than 30 of the coins came from the ancient Tamworth mint. Below is the description of coin. | |
