Has Abraham violated God' Law in Bible versus Quran?

By Dr. Ibrahim Khalil
In the Bible: Was Sarah Abraham' Sister or Abraham's wife or Both?

She was Both!
Yes she was the daughter of Abraham's father i.e. she was Abraham' Sister. In addition, she was Abraham's wife.
Read what Abraham said about her in Genesis 20:12

Genesis 20:12 in different versions of the Bible:

New International Version (NIV)
Besides, she really is my sister, the daughter of my father though not of my mother; and she became my wife.

King James Version (KJV)
And yet indeed she is my sister; she is the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.

American Standard Version (ASV)
And moreover she is indeed my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife:

What God' Law says about a man marries his sister?

It is forbidden by God' Law
It is a disgrace.
it is a wicked thing.
it is a shameful thing.
He has dishonored his sister and will be held responsible.
He is Cursed; Amen.
They must be cut off (Killed).

Leviticus 18:9 in different versions of the Bible:

New International Version (NIV)

Leviticus 20:17 in different versions of the Bible:

New International Version (NIV)
'If a man marries his sister, the daughter of either his father or his mother, and they have sexual relations, it is a disgrace. They must be cut off before the eyes of their people. He has dishonored his sister and will be held responsible.

King James Version (KJV)
And if a man shall take his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's daughter, and see her nakedness, and she see his nakedness; it is a wicked thing; and they shall be cut off in the sight of their people: he hath uncovered his sister's nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.

American Standard Version (ASV)
And if a man shall take his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's daughter, and see her nakedness, and she see his nakedness; it is a shameful thing; and they shall be cut off in the sight of the children of their people: he hath uncovered his sister's nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.

Deuteronomy 27:22 in different versions of the Bible:

New International Version (NIV)
"Cursed is the man who sleeps with his sister, the daughter of his father or the daughter of his mother." Then all the people shall say, "Amen!"

In the Quran: Was Sarah Abraham' Sister or Abraham's wife or Both?

She was Abraham's wife
She was not Abraham' Sister
According to the Noble Quran, it is forbidden for a man to marry his sister
It is a big sin to marry your sister
Its punishment is severe on the Day of Judgment.
I wonder why the Biblical writers said that Abraham married his sister Sarah while she was not!
According to God' Law in the Bible:
Had Abraham done a forbidden thing?
Has Abraham violated God' Law?
Had Abraham done a shameful thing?
Had Abraham dishonored his sister?
Was Abraham Cursed?
Would Abraham and Sarah have been cut off?
No Muslim believes in that.
Abraham was a great Prophet and the father of many Prophets.

However, what the Western Media would have said if the Quran was the book which says Abraham married his sister?
