In this post I will share examples of Allah using foul language in describing and/or insulting disbelievers.
For instance, Allah likens unbelievers to dogs:
Recite unto them the tale of him to whom We gave Our revelations, but he sloughed them off, so Satan overtook him and he became of those who lead astray. And had We willed We could have raised him by their means, but he clung to the earth and followed his own lust. Therefor his likeness is as the likeness of a dog: if thou attackest him he panteth with his tongue out, and if thou leavest him he panteth with his tongue out. Such is the likeness of the people who deny Our revelations. Narrate unto them the history (of the men of old), that haply they may take thought. Evil as an example are the folk who denied Our revelations, and were wont to wrong themselves. He whom Allah leadeth, he indeed is led aright, while he whom Allah sendeth astray – they indeed are losers. S. 7:175-178 Pickthall
Allah also claims that the disbelievers are filthy:
You who believe, associators are nothing but filthy (najasun), so they should not approach the Hallowed Mosque after this year that they still have. If you should fear destitution, God will enrich you out of His bounty if He so wishes. God is Aware, Wise. S. 9:28 (T.B. Irving https://www.islamawakened.com/quran/9/st47.htm)
Allah further describes folks who oppose him and Muhammad as bastards:
Do not obey every contemptible oathmonger, any faultfinder who goes around spreading gossip, hindering good, defiant, vicious, brawling, and a bastard (zaneemin) besides that even though he possesses both money and children. S. 68:10-14 (T.B. Irving https://www.islamawakened.com/quran/68/st47.htm)
Moreover, Allah classifies Jews who are ignorant of the Torah as dumb asses/donkeys:
Those who were entrusted with the burden of the Torah but failed to bear its obligations, are actually like a jackass (al-himari) carrying a load of books. Worse (in fact) is the example of a nation who rejects the signs of Allah; and Allah does not guide the nation of evil doers. S. 62:5 (Dr. Munir Munshey)
Allah even goes as far as to classify the disbelievers, be they Jews, Christians, idolators, etc., as the being the very worst of all beasts/creatures:
The unbelievers among the People of the Book and the pagans shall in the fire of Hell abide for ever. They are the vilest of all creatures (sharru al-bariyyati). S. 98:6 (N.J. Dawood https://www.islamawakened.com/quran/98/st50.htm)
Those who disbelieved among the People of the Scripture and the polytheists will abide eternally in the fire of Hell. They are the vilest of all beings. (Talal Itani https://www.islamawakened.com/quran/98/st88.htm)
This means disbelieving Jews, Christians, idolators are even worse than rodents, dogs, asses, swine, adulterers, fornicators, murderers, pedophiles, demons and even Satan himself!
