For one, the Qur'an is considered by Muslims to consist entirely of words spoken by Allah himself.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The Qur'an is in many ways far less concrete than the Bible, relying on the esoteric more often than the apparent.
Islam will be what Muslims make of it. And it is the sum total of the interpretation that Muslims give to it.
The Qur'an, throughout all of its verses, aims mainly to establish and confirm four basic, universal truths: the existence and Oneness of the Maker of the universe; Prophethood; bodily Resurrection; and worship and justice.
God says in the Quran that there is only one true religion, God's religion. It's the same theme that God revealed to all of the prophets, even before Muhammad.
A lot of the Koran does not speak very eloquently to a Westerner. Much of it is either legalistic or opaquely poetic.
It seems like whenever you write about Muslims, people assume that you're writing about the Quran, you are writing about the Prophet Muhammad. There's no sense that Muslims are capable of individualism, that they're capable of making mistakes that are somehow not connected to Islam.
The Qur'an is God's property, not mine.
Religion is defined by the relationship between God and man. And Islam is the submission and the acknowledgment of the human being to the creator.
ISIS itself, it draws its central belief system from the Koran and from the writings of the Prophet Muhammad. That is undeniable. And it's a medieval interpretation of it. It is a literal interpretation of it.
Islam believes in many prophets, and Al Quran is nothing but a confirmation of the old Scriptures.
