I think I just received a new surah, so am I officially a prophet now?

Guys, it finally happened.

After years of overthinking and random existential crises, I have officially received a revelation.

Humanity has entered a new era. Pork is back on the menu. Science has been acknowledged. Earlier, people were compensated with heavenly pork in Jannah. Everything has been resolved.

I present to you, Surah At-Tabaddul, the Surah of Transformation.

>سورة التبدّل

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

إِنَّ مِنَ الأَشْيَاءِ مَا حُرِّمَ فِي زَمَانٍ خَوْفَ الضَّرَرِ وَالفَسَادِ، ثُمَّ أَذِنَ اللَّهُ بِهِ لَمَّا اتَّسَعَ عِلْمُ الإِنسَانِ وَعَرَفَ أَسْبَابَ السَّلَامَةِ وَالشِّفَاءِ.
فَكُلُوا لَحْمَ الخِنزِيرِ إِذَا كَانَ طَيِّبًا سَلِيمًا، وَكُلُوا مِمَّا فِي الأَرْضِ بِالعِلْمِ وَالعَقْلِ، فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحِبُّ المُتَفَكِّرِينَ.
وَلَا يَقُلْ أَهْلُ الأَزْمِنَةِ الأُولَى إِنَّهُمْ حُرِمُوا خَيْرًا، فَإِنَّ لَهُمْ فِي الجَنَّةِ مَا يَشْتَهُونَ وَمَا تَلَذُّ الأَنفُسُ وَالأَبْصَارُ.
وَإِنَّ الفَسَادَ لَيْسَ فِي الطَّعَامِ وَلَٰكِنْ فِي ظُلْمِ العِبَادِ وَقَسْوَةِ القُلُوبِ وَأَكْلِ حُقُوقِ الضُّعَفَاءِ.
وَاللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ مَا كَانَ وَمَا يَكُونُ، وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ.

I downloaded this before its removal. So here it is as asked.

Context for the video:

This is from a YouTube channel called “Koran and Roll” that used to upload Quran verses as songs, for example Surah Al Ankabut. The channel got taken down pretty quickly, most likely due to mass reporting.

I saved this before it disappeared, so this is one of the few clips still around. Posting it here for reference and discussion.

Does anyone here remember that YouTube channel “Quran and Roll” where they were singing Quran verses like songs, I think Surah Al Ankabut was one of them?

I knew it would get taken down, so I downloaded one of the videos before it disappeared. I am not into this kind of stuff, but it was one of a kind to have, and the music honestly had a vibe to it.

But I know why Muslims would want it taken down.

For a long time, the West has felt like a kind of safe space for ex-Muslims. Somewhere you can finally breathe, think freely, and not live under constant pressure from family or society in the same way.

And to be clear, yes, it is still better than most Muslim countries in terms of freedom and personal safety. But lately I keep thinking about something uncomfortable.

Even there, things do not feel fully stable. Nationalism is rising in a lot of places. Racism is not disappearing, it is shifting and coming back in different forms. And extremism is not only on one side, it is growing on both the far right and the far left in different ways.

It makes me wonder what the long term picture actually looks like. Maybe it is still safer, maybe it is still better, but it does not feel like a guaranteed safe ending anymore. More like a temporary stability that could change.

Curious what others think, especially ex-Muslims who have already moved or are planning to. How do you see it?
