Yo the Quran is based wtf why didn't yall say something.
Baptists are the closest denomination to Islam so of course you like it.
Aiden Campbell
Why are we being spammed with Koran endorsements and why do none of these students of Islam know what a tafsir is?
Levi James
Which version of the Quran should I read, bros?
Luis Sanchez
None. Read The Bible, nigger.

Cringe and IslamwillsavetheWestfromitself pilled

>IslamwillsavetheWestfromitself This is a severely retarded theory. The West converting to Islam would only increase immigration from third world countries and accelerate the West's death.

This, but don't read the Bible either.

Camden Thompson
now read muhammads biography to give it some context

There's not one surah that is written nearly as well as any chapter in the Bible. The entire Quaran isn't worth even the five poetical books of the Bible (Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes and Song of Solomon).

sandniggers are Caucasian and have the same graeco-roman philosophical and abrahamic inheritance so its a lesser evil than say far east asians or blacks which have no link racially or otherwise whatsoever

I agree that the Quran has some nice prose to it, but I felt it was a little vain and trite with its superfluity for a religious text. You can say the bible is dry, but I think the somber frankness is much better when discussing things of a spiritual or metaphysical context.

The Greco-Romans of yesterday are the Europeans of today. Severe ethnic migration happened over the last 2000 years and it was all westward. For example the Iranians of today were the Indians of 2000 years ago.
Brody Phillips
The problem with reading the Koran in translation is that it was always meant to be recited publicly so the beauty and transcendence of the performance aspect of the Koran is lost when you simply read the text. Think of it this way. If you read the text of sacred choral music, it would be pretty bland. But hear a fully orchestrated performance, and what were mere words feel as though they come from God himself. m.youtube.com/watch?v=Wf3scPRLGFE

Ctrl+c, Ctrl-v the book. Unironcally worst book I've read since To Kill A Mockingbird in 9th grade.
Ian Sanders
The Quran is a vile piece of work. It's even worse when it comes to slave morality than the Bible is. Not only does it see the moral universe of Judaism and Christianity (and Zoroastrianism) as valid, but it actually turns this doctrine into a call to arms for every emotionally stunted, spiritually empoverished and intellectually insignificant subhuman to join. It's the fanatical cry of the weak and stupid to take down anything of hierarchy and value, and to replace it with a rubble of rules by the ill constituted, for the ill constituted. That you find these inane ramblings a thing of beauty tells me that you're part of this crowd of vileness, who collectively embrace this slander against the very essence of life.

Anyone have any book recommendations about Islamic history or Muslim societies.
I’ve read basic introductory books, like Karen Armstrong’s “Muhammad”, “No God but God” by Reza Aslan and the Koran, but little else with the exception of “Women of Sand and Myrrh” by Hanan al-Shaykh.
Muslims do a lot of fornicating, stop perpetuating the lie that they don't.
Camden Lewis
Don't read the koran, don't read the bible. Read into Daoism.
Robert Peterson
Jonathan A.C. Brown's book on hadith is fine if you want to learn about the meticulous lengths Muslim scholars went to preserve Muhammad's teachings. I doubt any other religion has something akin to hadith sciences.
Jose Sanders
Oxford world classics Read both, faggots. Have you read the Quran in Arabic?
