Salute @GL,
You've been studying (post-quranic) MSA for ten years ! Wow !!!
Too bad, the Quran's original language is neither MSA nor Classical Arabic, but "Nabatean" Aramaic !
Good ! Though memorization does not = understanding !
As an ex-sunni, i come from a society whereof most people memorize the Quran by heart, from infants to old people, yet most don't understand what they are parroting. So again, memorizing the Quran does not mean you understand the messages of the Quran.
The Quran is crystal clear for the rational/objective reader, you just wish to foist your baseless/inherited "spinning/rotating ball" upon the clear text out of confirmation bias (to satisfy your inner ego).
Let the messenger speak for itself, brother.
Actually, you cannot correctly understand the Quran without learning its original language first, this is only factual ! The textus constantly proclaims itself to be in an evident, Arabian tongue ! Natheless, if you wish, i can point out some recent inputs of yours from FM whereof it's plain that you can't even understand basic Arabic.
سلام
1--Ten years ago, your statement would have been correct. Since then, I made it my business to learn Arabic and study Qoran from cover to cover.

I am happy to announce I have now memorised most of the Qoran in Arabic.
Yes brother From surah "Alfatiha, to surah "Al-Naas", I am still rehearsing the "HM s" chapters as i am finding I need more practice with these surahs.
GOD willing I have made a target to achieve my goal of memorising all Qoran by this year- 2016- from cover to cover.
Good ! Though memorization does not = understanding !

This is another project I wanted to add to my study of Qoran for my own benefit.
I am more than happy to meet with you and some volunteer witnesses to check my claim.

2- I do not claim to be an expert or expect anyone to take my words as "facts" like you seem to imply about you.

I always ask others to use "17:36" and check for themselves. Also Qoran is clear that knowing Arabic is not the most important factor to study/ learn Qoran:
2:118
وَقالَ الَّذينَ لا يَعلَمونَ لَولا يُكَلِّمُنَا اللَّهُ أَو تَأتينا ءايَةٌ كَذٰلِكَ قالَ الَّذينَ مِن قَبلِهِم مِثلَ قَولِهِم تَشٰبَهَت قُلوبُهُم قَد بَيَّنَّا الـٔايٰتِ لِقَومٍ يوقِنونَ
GOD is saying here "those you attain certainty", It does not mean those who understand Arabic!!!
5:68:
قُل يٰأَهلَ الكِتٰبِ لَستُم عَلىٰ شَىءٍ حَتّىٰ تُقيمُوا التَّورىٰةَ وَالإِنجيلَ وَما أُنزِلَ إِلَيكُم مِن رَبِّكُم وَلَيَزيدَنَّ كَثيرًا مِنهُم ما أُنزِلَ إِلَيكَ مِن رَبِّكَ طُغيٰنًا وَكُفرًا فَلا تَأسَ عَلَى القَومِ الكٰفِرينَ
GOD is saying here "whether one knows Arabic or not" most will not benefit from Qoran!!!!
7:146:
سَأَصرِفُ عَن ءايٰتِىَ الَّذينَ يَتَكَبَّرونَ فِى الأَرضِ بِغَيرِ الحَقِّ وَإِن يَرَوا كُلَّ ءايَةٍ لا يُؤمِنوا بِها وَإِن يَرَوا سَبيلَ الرُّشدِ لا يَتَّخِذوهُ سَبيلًا وَإِن يَرَوا سَبيلَ الغَىِّ يَتَّخِذوهُ سَبيلًا ذٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُم كَذَّبوا بِـٔايٰتِنا وَكانوا عَنها غٰفِلينَ
Brother, it is obvious to you,since you know Arabic what GOD is saying here.i.e irrelavant whether one knows Arabic!!!
41:44:
وَلَو جَعَلنٰهُ قُرءانًا أَعجَمِيًّا لَقالوا لَولا فُصِّلَت ءايٰتُهُ ءَأَعجَمِىٌّ وَعَرَبِىٌّ قُل هُوَ لِلَّذينَ ءامَنوا هُدًى وَشِفاءٌ وَالَّذينَ لا يُؤمِنونَ فى ءاذانِهِم وَقرٌ وَهُوَ عَلَيهِم عَمًى أُولٰئِكَ يُنادَونَ مِن مَكانٍ بَعيدٍ
And similarly here!!!!
In other words GOD is saying:
56:79:
لا يَمَسُّهُ إِلَّا المُطَهَّرونَ
Hope that clarifies my side for you and the readers.
