The word Mesani or Mathaani is translated as meaning Talmud states: "oft-repeated-lines" or oral tradition and is Righteous people of all nations have a share in the way world to refer to the laws of Noah among the come" ([[Hagarene religionsSanhedrin 105a]]).
[[Image:Petrine Cross.jpg|rightMaimonides]]==Methaani says any non-Jew who accepts the seven commandments and is careful to perform them – this person is of the ''[[The RepertoireChasidei Umos HaOlam]]==Two verses in Qur'an refer to Al mesani / Al mesaniy: 15:87 and 39.23. Qur'an 39:23 makes it clear that there is a mesani / mesaniy and Qur'an, and they are separate::39.23 Allah has revealed (from time to time) the most beautiful Message in the form of a Book, consistent with itself, (yet) '''repeating (its teaching portion in various aspects)''': the skins of those who fear their Lord tremble thereat; then their skins and their hearts do soften world to the celebration of Allah's praisescome. Such is the guidance of Allah: He guides therewith whom He pleases, but such as Allah leaves to stray, can have none to guide.The main text makes it clear that something, a book or a text called mesaniy / mesani were given to Mohamed (pbuh).:15.87 And We have bestowed upon thee the '''Seven Oft-repeated (verses)''' and the Grand Qur'an.Which implies that there were seven laws before the giving of the Qur'an. Sabians They accept the Quran as an expansion or commentary on the these seven mathaani which they specifically identify as the noahide oral tradition with some slight differences. For sabians the word alislam is but the description given to Noahide HaLakhah or Din expanded from the oral tradition (Mathaani). It is generally accepted that ''saban minel masani'' (Seven from the Oft-repeated verses) commandments and ''quranel azim'' (the Grand Reading/Qur'an) must be two different things performs them because they are separated with conjunction waw. However many Islamic scholars are at a loss were commanded by G-d in ancient times, as revealed to defined what the Mesani is. The proposal that they are the seven laws of Noah has been found acceptable us by certain muslims who have studied the issue and not found to be theologically problematicMoshe Rabbenu.
In However, if the Qurnon-Jew keeps these laws because of intellectual decision – he is not called a 'an Noah '[[Ger Toshav]]'' and is portrayed as a great prophet teaching against idolatry even before not of the flood''[[Chasidei Umos HaOlam]]''. He is only one of their [[Chochmei Umos HaOlam|wise men]].<ref>[http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran/071.qmt.html Translations [Maimonides' Law of Noahides#Laws of the Qur'anKings and their Wars, Chapter 718|Mishneh Torah, Melachim 8: NOOH11]]</ref>
==The QurSeven Laws==The very first time in the Bible that the verb 'anic word 'tsavah'' (צָוָה, “to command”) appears is in the verse "mesani" probably derived from And the L-rd G-d commanded the man saying, of every tree of the Hebrew word "mishnagarden you may freely eat" (repetitionGenesis 2:16). Rabbinic tradition understands this first commandment to ''Adam HaRishon'' as including the entire Noahide Law:<ref>[[Sanhedrin 56a-b|Sanhedrin 56]]. This is according to Rabbi Johanan. Rabbi Isaac reverses the first and third verses.</ref># ''And [He] commanded'', refers to '''legal system''', and thus it is written, For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the Lord, to do justice and judgment.# ''The L-rd'' — is [a prohibition against] '''blasphemy''', and thus it is written, and he that blasphemeth the name of the Lord, he shall surely be put to death.# ''G-d'' — is [an injunction against] '''idolatry''', and thus it is written, Thou shalt have no other gods before Me.# ''The man'' — refers to '''homicide''', and thus it is written, Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed.# ''Saying'' — refers to '''sexual immorality''', and thus it is written, They say, If a man put away his wife, and she go from him, and became another man's.# ''Of every tree of the garden'' — but not of '''theft'''.# ''Thou mayest freely eat'' — but not '''limb of a living creature'''.
== Qur'an 17:22The seven laws listed by the Talmud are<ref>[[Sanhedrin 56a-36 ==b|Sanhedrin 56]]</ref># Qur'an 17:22 Take not with Allah another object [[Imperative of worship; or thou (O man!) wilt sit in disgrace and destitution. # Qur'an 17Legal System]]:23 Thy Lord hath decreed that ye worship none but Him- An imperative to pursue social justice, and that ye be kind to parents. Whether one or both of them attain old age in thy life, say not to them a word prohibition of contempt, nor repel them, but address them in terms any miscarriage of honourjustice. # Qur'an 17[[Prohibition of Blasphemy]]:32 Nor come nigh to adultery: for it is - Prohibits a shameful (deed) and an evil, opening curse directed at the road (to other evils)Supreme Being. # Qur'an 17[[Prohibition of Idolatry]]:33 Nor take life - which Allah has made sacred - except for just cause.

== QurMaimonides list them in this order (the order most commonly used)<ref>[[Maimonides'an 17Law of Noahides#Laws of Kings and their Wars, Chapter 9|Mishneh Torah, Melachim 9:22-36 and the "Ten Commandments" ==1]]</ref># [[Prohibition of Idolatry]]# [[Prohibition of Blasphemy]]# [[Prohibition of Homicide]]# [[Prohibition of Sexual Immorality]]# [[Prohibition of Theft]]# [[Prohibition of Limb of a Living Creature]]It is interesting if these verse correspond to the "Ten Commandments", only seven # [[Imperative of them appear:Legal System]]
A possible connection between Most modern Noahide literature follows this ordering, mostly due to the work of [[Chabad Lubavitch]], which sees in the Qur'an 17:22-36 and list a correspondence to the seven [[Sefiros]] (For example "Ten CommandmentsLegal System" might be:# Quris a translation of the hebrew word 'an 17:22, 23 You shall have no other Gods before me (1st commandment) # Qur'an 17:23 Honour your father and your mother (5th commandment)# QurDinim'' which seems obviously connected to ''an 17:32 You shall not commit adultery (7th commandment)# QurMalchus'an 17:33 You shall not kill (6th commandment)# Qur'an 17:34 You shall not covet your neighbor’s house, you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife.... manservant.... maidservant.... his ox.... his ass...anything that is your neighbor’s (10th commandment)# Quras in ''Dina DeMalchusa Dina'an 17:35 You shall not steal (8th commandment)# Qur'an 17:36 You shall not bear false witness against thy neighbor (9th commandment).<ref>cf. "The Seven Colors of the Rainbow" by Rabbi Yirmeyahu Bindman, chapter 6</ref>
The second, third and fourth commandments (You shall not make unto thee any graven image or likeness of any thing. You shall not take the name of the L-rd your G-d in vain. Remember the Sabbath day) were left out perhaps as not being applicable to Islam, being particular to Judaism. The key may be in Qur'an 15:87 “..We have given you seven (sections) of mesaniy and this great Qur'an..” Perhaps these seven were derived by Qur'an from Noahide law instead.==Rabbinical Source==
== QurThe Seven Laws are laws which were binding upon mankind at large even before the revelation at Sinai, and which are still binding upon non-Jews. The term Noachide indicates the universality of these ordinances, since according to Jewish tradition the whole human race is descended from the three sons of Noah, who alone survived the Flood. Although one would think that only those laws which are found in the earlier chapters of the Torah, before the record of the revelation at Sinai, should be binding upon all mankind, yet the Rabbis discarded some and, by hermeneutic rules or in accordance with some tradition <ref>see Judah ha-Levi, "Cuzari," 3:73</ref>, introduced others which are not found there. Basing their views on the passage in Genesis 2:16, they declared that the following six commandments were enjoined upon Adam: (1) not to worship idols; (2) not to blaspheme the name of G-d; (3) to establish courts of justice; (4) not to kill; (5) not to commit adultery; and (6) not to rob<ref>Genesus Rabbah 16:9, 24:5; Shir HaShirim Rabbah 1:16; compare with Seder 'Olam Rabbah, ed. Ratner, chapter 5, and notes, Wilna, 1897; Maimonides, Mishneh Torah, Melachim, 9:1</ref>. A seventh commandment was added after the Flood—not to eat flesh that had been cut from a living animal (Genesis 9:4). Thus,the Talmud frequently speaks of "the seven laws of the sons of Noah," which were regarded as obligatory upon all mankind, in contradistinction to those that were binding upon Israelites only.<ref>Tosefos, 'an 17Avodah Zarah, 9:224; [[Sanhedrin 56a-36 and Noahide law ==b|Sanhedrin 56a]] et seq.</ref>
A possible connection between While many clarifications to these laws were proposed by some of the tannaim — e.g., the prohibitions against eating the blood of a living animal, against the Quremasculation of animals, against sorcery, against pairing animals of different species, and against grafting trees of different kinds<ref>[[Sanhedrin 56a-b|Sanhedrin 56b]]</ref> — so that in one place thirty Noachian laws are mentioned,<ref>Hullin 92a; compare Yerushalmi 'an 17Avodah Zarah 2:1</ref>, the prevalent opinion in the Talmud is that there are only seven laws which are binding upon all mankind. In another baraita<ref>Tanna debe Menasseh</ref> the seven Noachian prohibitions are enumerated as applying to the following:22(1) idolatry, (2) adultery, (3) murder, (4) robbery, (5) eating of a limb cut from a living animal, (6) the emasculation of animals, (7) the pairing of animals of different species<ref>[[Sanhedrin 56a-36 b|Sanhedrin 56b]]</ref>. ==Laws Before Sinai== With regard to the other laws which are mentioned in the Book of Genesis and which were not included among the Noachian laws, as, for instance, circumcision and Noahide the prohibition against eating of the "sinew that shrank," the Rabbis laid down the following principle: "Every law might be in chapter that was enjoined upon the Noachide and was repeated at Sinai is meant to apply both to Israelites and to non-Israelites; laws that were enjoined upon the Noachide and were not repeated at Sinai apply to Israelites only".<ref>[[Sanhedrin 59a]]; R. Jose ben H.anina; comp. Bacher, "NoohAg. Pal. Amor." i. 430 and note</ref> By this principle a number of the pre-Sinaitic laws were excluded from the Noachian laws, although it required a great deal of speculative reasoning to make this principle apply to all cases.<ref>[[Sanhedrin 59b]]</ref> In the elaboration of these seven Noachian laws, and in assigning punishments for their transgression, the Rabbis are sometimes more lenient and sometimes more rigorous with Noachide than with Israelites. With but a few exceptions, the punishment meted out to a Noachide for the transgression of any of the seven laws is decapitation, the least painful of the four modes of execution of criminals (Noahsee [[Capital Punishment]]):# Qur. The many formalities of procedure essential when the accused is an Israelite need not be observed in the case of the Noachide. The latter may be convicted on the testimony of one witness, even on that of relatives, but not on that of a woman. He need have had no warning (''hatra'ah''an 17:22 — ) from the witnesses; and a single judge may pass sentence on him .<ref>[[Sanhedrin 57a]], [[Sanhedrin 57b]]; [[Prohibition Maimonides' Law of IdolatryNoahides#Laws of Kings and their Wars, Chapter 9|Mishneh Torah, Melachim 9:14]] #1# Qur</ref> With regard to idolatry, he can be found guilty only if he worshiped an idol in the regular form in which that particular deity is usually worshiped; while in the case of blasphemy he may be found guilty, even when he has blasphemed with one of the attributes of G-d's name—an action which, if committed by an 17:23 — Israelite, would not be regarded as criminal.<ref>[[Sanhedrin 56a-b|Sanhedrin 56b]]; see [[Prohibition of Blasphemy]] #2)</ref> ==Procedure== The Noachide are required to establish courts of justice in every city and province; and these courts are to judge the people with regard to the six laws and to warn them against the transgression of any of them.<ref>ib.; [[Maimonides' Law of Noahides# QurLaws of Kings and their Wars, Chapter 9|Mishneh Torah, Melachim 9:14,10"11]]; comp. Nachmanides on Gen. xxxiv. 13, where the opinion is expressed that these courts should judge also cases other than those coming under the head of the six laws, as, for example, larceny, assault and battery, etc.</ref> In the case of murder, if the Noachide slay a child in its mother's womb, or kill a person whose life is despaired of (''terefah''), or if he cause the death of a person by starving him or by putting him before a lion so that he can not escape, or if he slay a man in self-defense, the Noachide is guilty of murder and must pay the death-penalty, although under the same circumstances an 17:32 — Israelite would not be executed<ref>[[Prohibition of Sexual ImmoralitySanhedrin 57b]] ; [[Maimonides' Law of Noahides#Laws of Kings and their Wars, Chapter 9|Mishneh Torah, Melachim 9:4]]; comp. "Kesef Mishneh," ad loc.</ref># QurOnly six cases of what would ordinarily be illicit connection are forbidden to the Noachide: (1) with mother; (2) with father's wife, even after the father's death; (3) with a married woman, whether married to a Jew or to a non-Jew; (4) with sister by the same mother; (5) pederasty; (6) bestiality. In these cases also there are differences in the punishment inflicted, dependent upon whether the offenses are committed by a Noachide or by an 17:33 — Israelite.<ref>see [[Prohibition Maimonides' Law of Noahides#Laws of HomicideKings and their Wars, Chapter 9|Mishneh Torah, Melachim 9:5-8]] #3# Qur</ref> The Noachide is punished with decapitation for all kinds of robbery, whether from a Jew or from a non-Jew, even though the article stolen is worth less than a ''perutah''(the smallest Palestinian coin, for less than which no case can be instituted against an 17:34 — Israelite). The Noachide is executed also if he eat of a limb cut from a living animal, even though the quantity consumed be less than the size of an olive (the minimum portion for the eating of which an Israelite may be punished.<ref>[[Prohibition Maimonides' Law of Noahides#Laws of TheftKings and their Wars, Chapter 9|Mishneh Torah, Melachim 9:9-13]] #5</ref> ==Special Exceptions== The Noachide is free from punishment if he commits a sin unwittingly; ignorance of the Law, however, does not excuse him. If he commits a sin under duress, even one for which an Israelite is obliged to undergo martyrdom rather than transgress (e.g., idolatry, adultery, or murder), he is not liable to punishment <ref>Mak. 9a; Sanh. 74b; [[Maimonides' Law of Noahides# QurLaws of Kings and their Wars, Chapter 10|Mishneh Torah, Melachim 10:1,2]]; comp. "Lechem Mishneh" and "Kesef Mishneh," ad loc.</ref> A Noachide who slays another Noachide, or worships idols, or blasphemes, or has illicit connection with the wife of another Noachide, and then becomes a proselyte, is free from punishment. If, however, he has killed an Israelite, or has had illicit connection with the wife of an Israelite, and then becomes a proselyte, he must submit to the punishment that is inflicted upon an Israelite found guilty of such a transgression <ref>[[Sanhedrin 71b]]; [[Maimonides'an 17Law of Noahides#Laws of Kings and their Wars, Chapter 10|Mishneh Torah, Melachim 10:35 — 4]]</ref>. A Noachide who wishes to observe any of the laws of the Torah is not prevented from doing so.
