Point 1:

As for the first question I do know that the Qur’an is not in chronological order and was sent down
in divine preference from Allah swt

Proud Muslim:

The Qur'an was revealed to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) gradually, as needed, and
took about twenty three years to complete. It was written down in its entirety during the Prophet’s
lifetime, although the verses were not gathered together in one volume until after his death. The
order of the Qur'an as we see it today is not arbitrary but the order and sequence of The Qur’an
divinely inspired so it's not arranged in chronological order. Allah -swt- says in The Qur'an; "...and
We have arranged it well in arranging. " 25:32

Point 2:

Proud Muslim has directed me to the following link by Dr Zakir Naik who responds to the same
question: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rlbFSWbcVVM.

Point 3:

For this point, I would as in any instance advise that when people are twisting and spreading hatred
towards the religion and what is said in the Qur’an is to try and show them the right path but if they
are not willing to listen then you cannot do much apart from pray that they see the light. And in no
instance should you fall to their level and do the same.

Proud Muslims also provides an insight:

That's exactly what I'd do if I were put in a situation where I had to clear a non-Muslim's
misunderstandings. You give your answers as correctly and as politely as you can and it's up to them
to contemplate and do further researching or leave it and refuse considering what the other side has
to say. Of course, if the other side is willing to listen then that's great but I know it doesn't happen
often in the online world. There are only haters in youtube.

I've been online for around 9 years and spent quite a lot of time debating with atheists and non-
Muslims. From my experience, it's an absolute waste of time to even try to clarify anything to these
kind people. I know that there are plenty of atheists or non-Muslims with legitimate questions who
are still able to carry our an intelligent conversation but people like this video maker and many
others I came across the other day, there is nothing you, the one who asked you or I can do for them
except pray for their hidayah.
The person who messaged you is probably new to this kind of misinformed videos that's why s/he is
enthusiastic about trying to make things clear for them but you can tell that the video maker has his
heart and mind sealed already there is no way any answer you help with is going to affect that
person in anyway.
