As a Muslim, i thank you for willing to read the Quran. Me myself everytime i read it, i always learnt something new. So i do encourage/welcome you to keep reading it over and over again. You will probably not going to understand certain (or even most) parts of it. However by God's willing, He will enlighten the path sooner or later (based on my own experience).
eewhat about the stuff about being allowed to have sexx with slaves/captives and out not being a sin? Doesn't that show Allah is not moral? Or how Allah said you can have sex with a 9 year old. That's plainly evil. Choose Chariot. he is never evil. If your God is telling you things that you have to say, "oh we don't do that anymore..." he wasn't giving GOOD advice but evil advice. Good and evil don't change.
Allah the Muslim god has just one prophet, an illiterate prophet called Mohama. (SAWS, SAWS) Allah has no prophet other than Mohama. Allah popped up in the 6th century in Arabia out of nowhere. How than can he be God ? Where are the uncorrupted writings of the prophets, the so called original message of Allah ? If Allah is indeed God, why is there no record of the uncorrupted writings of the prophets, that Allah supposedly sent ? That the Bible is corrupted, is a lie fabricated by Muslims, to cover up for the fact that Allah has only one illiterate prophet Mohama. If the Jews inserted the name of Issac, what was Allah doing ? Was he busy looking for a wife ? Where are Allah's original uncorrupted writings ? if Allah could not protect and preserve his word from corruption by the Jews and Christians, that he is impotent , and cannot be the creator or sustainer of this universe. Allah sending his prophets was a vain exercise by a helpless god. All of God's word is Eternal and not for a specific period of time. as Allah or his camel doctor Zakir Naik claims. If he could perfectly preserve the Quran, why was he not able to preserve the writings of the prophets ? If he says the Torah and the Gospels were for a specific period period of time, than the same reasoning could be applied to the Quran, that it was only for his illiterate prophet and Arabs of the 6th century. By this reasoning, it is clear that Allah is a illegitimate god, and a deceiver and a liar and he cannot be the creator or sustainer of this universe.
This book isn’t for a specific groups but for guidance for humankind/mankind and those who believe and implement the verses/fully submits to the will of Allah are called muslimeen quran 43:69
We sent down the Quran as a healing and mercy for the believers, but it only increases the wrongdoers in loss When we grant people our favors, they turn away acting arrogantly. But when touched with evil they lose all hope Say, “Everyone acts in their own way. But your Lord knows the best whose way is rightly guided” Surah 17 (82 - 85) I believe this last verse was a sign for you Subhanallah
the biggest msitake in my opinion is when you assume that Quran is a different message from a different God. You have to read witn a mindset that this message is from the same God of Ibraham Moses and Jesus, then u might start to understand. This is a continuation of God's msg to Humans. this is advanced religion, you are already past elemetary, middle school. high school, college, and MBA, this is your PHD if you are willing to go there. As in all scienses, it get refined and corrected by the passage of time and thats what the Quran is.
100%. Even if you watch "Ten Commandments" from 1953, the arab bedouins who sheltered Moses, they talking about descending from Abraham through Ishmael. Those same arabs fall into idolatry and receive the Last Prophet
@@seekthetruthandthetruthwil2388 🌹🌿🌺☘🌻🍀🍁🌷🪴🌱💐Haha, do you know Hubble? Dear sir, please calm down, why are you angry? Who told you that Muhammad worships the god Hubal? Whoever tells you that is deceiving you and lying to you. Muhammad believes in the same God as Abraham, Moses, Noah, Jacob, David, Solomon, and all the prophets. Muhammad believes in the same God whom Jesus prostrated to and hoped that He would forgive him and forgive people. Muhammad believes in the same God, but who is this God that Muhammad, Abraham, Moses, Noah, and Jacob worshiped? And Solomon, Yahya, and Jesus? He is God, not Jehovah. Abraham, Joseph, Jacob, Isaac, Noah, and David died and did not know that there was a God named Jehovah. I prove to you what is the name of the angels Gabriel. Michael. The name is made up of two words, Mica and El, so it is Mica, El. Likewise, the names Ishmael, Ishmael, El, Israel, Asrael, El. The name is made up of two syllables, the second of them. It is the name of the god, Deer, and it is a pronunciation of the name of the god to which Muhammad turned. Deer = God was known in Iraq 6000 years ago. Note that Babylon is called Bab El = God’s Gate = God’s Gate = God’s Gate Also in Yemen, the god Deer was known, and the Yemenis worshiped him and depicted him in the form of a deer. =The sheep stands tall and proud, raising its head to the sky. The Yemenis painted the god El in the image of a sheep in its lofty stance. In Yemen, Noah, Lot, Abraham, Moses, Jacob, David, Solomon, and Christ lived. I hope you will search to find out. Unfortunately, your scholars are deceiving you.💐💐
Good of you to share your thoughts, you mentioned that you did not find the Quran “Ground breaking” but what do you think will happen when AI fails and the world is plunged into poverty, when the curtain is lifted what remain is your ability to withstand darkness with your moral code and continue to persevere. If your expecting innovation in order to believe then you have completely over looked the fact that enriching of the heart is done on the inside not with fancy knowledge and materialism and the Quran and the teachings of the Prophet give us all we need to know to let go of our attachments to desires and our fears. The work is measured on the inside not with external materialistic variables that will soon perish away, we work on whats permanent the refinement of the heart and the soul
We already live in a poberty of having so much, cathegorising one another as "us" "them", when we are all humans AI will never raise, we just are too dependent as we often get dependend either by technology, gurus and stuff
@@deeZerV2 Quran challenges you to find missing information..... If the information is not complete, irrational, contradictory, then it cannot be from God. Good luck....😂😂😂
@@deeZerV2even now today scientists persist in the their ignorant pursuit of progress seeking prestige at the cost of their own freedoms, they have been developing the apparatus that enslaves mankind to day through the use of their technology.
Hi thanks for your reading.in 8:30 there is misunderstanding Muslims don't conquered but seek freedom of poeple to pray as they want and a lot of nations were oppressed by romans...now there is church every were in Muslim countries Etc. For so called *taxes* called "jizya" are for protection and non Muslim keep their faith and don't fight for muslim who are in charge to protect theme. Islam fight the oppressor who are like corporet or bigpharma or crapy politicians nowadays.also Their is no taxes in islam. Excuse my English. Greating from Morocco
> _They conquer through conversion. They had few choices, either you convert or you pay tax._ Why do people want muslims only to pay taxes? Why do people not want non-muslims who live in muslim states to just enjoy a tax-free life? Is that fair in your book? Muslims pay Zakat, non muslims had to pay something at some point ... jizya, which, a lot of times, was lower than zakat.
Congratulations my brother for first taking your time to read the Qur'an and i believe if you read it the second time and contemplating on its verses you will be able God willing to understand
Very good analysis. Please read the life history of Prophet Muhammad PBUH first. This will provide you the perspective of the 23 years over which Quran was revealed. May Allah Guide you.
@@phoenixdestinyhgh I am an ex atheist. I think the most critical verse is surah 13 verse 27. There are similar verses. In essence they say Allah guides those who turn to him. 40:13 42:13 have a similar message.
@@phoenixdestinyhgh This is a starting point for those agnostic about religion. Supposing you only know there is there is some God (since you have figured out that part) and no other information about who or what he is Thus you are with no information of which God may be the true god. Consider the Following Statements. If I say Worship A who is the true god. This statement may or may not be true.. If I say Worship B who is the true god. This statement may or may not be true.. if I say Worship John, the man who is the true god. This statement may or may not be true.. if I say Worship the Sun, the Star who is the true god. This statement may or may not be true.. However if I say Worship the creator the universe, who is the true God. That is a true statement! Since you are specifying God as he who created the universe and not a particular object person. That is the true God and to worship him is the true religion. God is specified exactly this way in the Quran including Surah Kahf. Point is Muhammad SWAS came and basically told us to worship that God. Look the the mulsim prayers and duas, they apply on the creator of the universe. If you mean Allah to mean the creator, then Subhan Allah (Allah is perfect), Alhamdolillah (All praise if for Allah), Allah o Akbar (Allah is the greatest), La ilaha illalah (The is no God but Allah), La huwal walquwata illah billah (There is no power but with Allah). Surah Fatheha. You list them, they are all completely valid prayers for the creator.
i do have to say, although you may already know, but the Quran is truly best experienced when listened and followed along to, as the lands of Arabia prior to Islam was one wherein poetry was highly valued and determined status, and so the Quran came to convince these people using their own prized methods. I recommend listening to some of the later Meccan Surahs like Surah Takwir to get get the feeling. But God bless you for seeking the truth🙏
@@MrSlaternaterit is not a matter of understading what is being said. As you pointed out, the translation is essential if you are not speaking arabic. But listening to it may help you appreciate another aspect of it, mainly literary, that is the unique style and beauty of recitation that add value to the meaning. As an example I can say that it is like translating poetry, only the original language has all aspects that contribute its beauty, while if you translate you will get the message but you will not be able to grasp all of its beauty and complexity
You deserve to read for yourself and decide, the book says in chapter 2 verse 256 "Let there be no compulsion in religion, for the truth stands out clearly from falsehood.1 So whoever renounces false gods and believes in Allah has certainly grasped the firmest, unfailing hand-hold. And Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing." thank you
The Quran is the epitome of Islam. I congratulate this young man for his willingness to engage with the information on some level, which is a basic requirement for any kind of meaningful consideration. Islam holds the presupposition that mankind has a numinous nature toward the Divine Creator. And it's for this very reason there's an undenible universal religiosity in all human cultures. While simultaneously, we seem to owe it to ourselves to bring the best intellectual prowess to the subject matter ,due to its profound implications on what it means to be sapient creatures. Moreover, all things considered human beings' intellect has a finite ability" to know", and we presuppose our senses and intellect are able to determine what is suffice based upon what seems ito be most plausible , and what proves to be most credible. And this is morally and intellectually the foundation of a knowledge-based Faith system found in Islam.
It's great that you are reading the English translation of the Quran. I think there are some misunderstandings here. Firstly, your comments on the Quran being a lot like the bible. Each book was given over time, the Torah, Injeel (Bible) and finally Quran which was the end of revelation. The Torah and Injeel have not been preserved as we can see i.e. the different versions, change in text, as you mentioned here, language has a lot to do with this, but there are significant differences within the different versions. The Quran, which is very different again in nature as it was not written down initially, it was recited by the Prophet (peace be upon him), and completed during his lifetime. Until today it has not been altered in any way. Here begs the questions, why weren't the Torah and Injeel (Bible) preserved but the Quran is. To understand the beauty and depth of Quran we need to understand the Arabic language used to write it, and Tafsir (explanation of the meaning). It also helps to read and understand the life of the Prophet (pbuh), I strongly recommend The Sealed Nectar which is a book about the life of the Prophet (pbuh). You also mention there is some manipulation, excuse me if I have misunderstood what you mean, but I assume you mean the warnings of hell if you don't live according to the text. I don't see this as manipulation at all. I see this as this is going to happen whatever you believe, and Allah is telling us a way to avoid this, if we choose to. 'There is no compulsion in religion' (Surah Baqarah vs 256). I hope you decided to do more research as it will give you a greater understanding.
I think you’d love watching Jeffrey Lang Purpose of life it’s very good the way he explains it is very interesting and I’m sure it would help you find the groundbreaking stuff you’re looking for Also the Arabic is something that shocked the Arabs at the time and to this day they thought it was magic or poetry and the prophet Pbuh could not read or write that’s a miracle that amazed many I suggest you listen to it in Arabic with English translation
The only book read repeatedly by the largest number of people and I never get bored with or tired of reading it. The more I read read, the more tranquility I feel.
You mentioning it's not "ground breaking" reminded me the verse of the Quran: Have they not travelled throughout the land so their hearts may reason, and their ears may listen? Indeed, it is not the eyes that are blind, but it is the hearts in the chests that grow blind. [22:46] ... What I learnt about the Qur'an was that it's a serious book for people who reason, who think, who ponder etc. Thank you for reading :)
Brother thank you for having an open mind, i hope you re-read it , take your time and ponder each chapter and in context, maybe research further and it resonates with you by revisiting. Take care brother 🤲🏾
Given your outlook to this, as you said with an open mind, from where you stand presenty, it can be said you're all good and only wish you all the best. Cos what ever is in store for you is as what is willed by Allah for you, as was the case from your conception in your mother uptil now.
Firstly, the speaker has earned my respect ✊🏾! He was objective in presenting his views but in my point of view, it was an observation of the surface! His final analysis at the end was just fascinating! He will read the Quran again. Watch till the end to find the real meaning of the professor’s findings! Professor is a real lifelong learner!
Regarding Islamic Expansion, it was TWO options. Convert or Pay Jizyah Tax (and keep any religion that you practice.). This Jizyah tax was less than what the Muslims paid to the government (Zakat) and this Jizyah tax provided non-Muslims protection from the caliphate and it provided non-muslims exempt from military status. Meaning in case of any war whether was against the caliphate or against that specific religious group, non-muslims were not required to fight.
It's good to be informed. You just have to realize that what you read is a translation... May God give you guidance to follow the right path & welcome to Islam 😊😊😊
Hey im a muslim and the first time reading the Quran i also had the feeling about some verses why they were there or i didnt understand some. But after reading more and getting more knowledge about the world we live in and the history, a lot more things started conecting and my faith increased. Also when you sin less and truly ask God for guiding you, you will get more knowledge, in sha Allah. May Allah guide us, ameen.
By reading Quran you can get closer to the creator of everything, but as you said there may be problematic translations, many of them interpolate meanings from their tradition because they believe the Quran can not be understood without the hadith. There are some independent linguists who have translated the Quran, namely Sam Gerrans and Shuaib Abdullahi (the correctional officer on youtube).
After reading the Quran,take what you learned from the Quran and read the Bible and implement the ideals of it into it,like a standard.you’ll see a different point of view and what Jesus was preaching.because what Jesus preach people tend to put their own beliefs into the Bible.not the other way around.
Reading it 2nd or 3rd would be more interesting… that’s what happened to me i am finally getting it It’s a beautiful read and loved it I will read it again
If guidance prerequisites were intellect, enlightenment, intelligence, knowledge, etc. then simple people would be deprived. So God's will to guide the person, the person's need, seek, readiness and acceptance of guidance are also important factors.
I'm a Luciferian, striving to become a true Muslim. To fully understand Islam and to see the groundbreaking aspect, is when you're given the full truth and light in where you're led, with an open heart to seek ultimate truth. Many polytheistic religions, and 3 main monotheistic religions, you must crossreference, from a gnostic standpoint. healthy pragmatism, unbiased skepticism, but open to change in our cognitive dissonances. For me, it was the concept of the hereafter, that led me astray, to question God's authority, and using my conscious understanding of the world and what i knew, through these questions; i refused to believe the concept of Hell, or that it was simply unfair. I have a strong, unconditional love for the world, i can feel it within my heart and soul, and I empathize to all. It's a dark place, but through my journeys, ive realized that life is beautiful in its own dark ways. I grew to understand that, we really dont know it all. What we understand is limited in contrast to that of the Most HIgh. You also have to dive into the Hadith, and other histories, to gain a grander understanding. I'm still undergoing my journey, ive had my fair share of psychedelics and dives into the esoteric; all around i see what is considered shirk/"magic", simply a secret science- alchemical teachings as to how the Universe works, and it's principles etc. When you open your third eye, you're gifted sight of the unseen- but this also in turn is in its own way make the individual susceptible to being misguided by a false light, which the Quran strictly warns you about. We're here in the Dunya, this "matrix" or simulation of life, with tests to guide us and whether or not we choose to accept a truth once shown or not would lead us either further or closer to Divine alignment. Salvation is not from a person who died for our sins, but within oneself, to understand that "Christ Consciousness", and what they really meant. Mind you, the bible was corrupted by secret societies like Knights Templar etc- the Freemasons are active up till this day. Look around what's going in the world, politics, who are strongly being targeted, from the Uyghurs in China, to the children suffering in Palestine- who are the peddlers of evils, the tyrants, who do they want to silence? The Quran cannot be corrupted, there are attempts, and other sects. But acknowledge the Hafiz, where the Quran is memorized top to bottom, every vowel. You can kill a person, but not an idea. Also note, a lot of these "Muslim Countries" that enforce such rules, have long been hijacked as corruption seeps into positions of power. You don't follow these wrongs, you can only ponder on what scholars say, but truth is from within, and worldly history, and sciences. Keep asking the questions, keep searching for truths, but with an open heart and don't let the fear consume you, but Love. I pray and i will work and strive to continue expanding my knowledge and wisdom, and that i can find the strength within me to fully give up my worldly desires from the money, drugs, women, parties, and other "fun" worldly temptations, in submission for true salvation, to embody the 5 pillars in Islam, and to raise my frequency and my ranks in what goes down in the ether, to prepare for the divine prophecy and future wars, and to attain salvation from Allah swt.
also get some rest brother, kinda going thru rough patches myself and really searching and learning more, but well rest, balance, healthy diets, fresh air. Stay Zen, much love- Zen.
In Quran, Ayats (verses) rarely ends with letter "H" but in Surah al Shams (The Sun), all the ayats ends with letter "H". And Sun is mostly (%98) made of Hydrogen (H) and Helium (He).
I did I can read very fast, like in college i would last minute study and read full textbook in a few hours and end up doing well on the exam. I also read 3/4 of the bible in a few days, but tbh something like the Bible of Quran you should really take time to digest and reflect.. i just wanted an understanding of it so sped read it
Islam is the truth and the only way to paradise, all Prophets from adam(as) to Muhammed(saw) were muslims(submitting their will to god) To allah we belong and to him we will return
You are almost there brother just open your heart and lean towards reasoning and logic. God is all wise all knowing. Be sincere and you will submit I suggest you listen to it as well.. once you do you will find peace.
@@phoenixdestinyhgh just the Theravada branch in general (one of the three major branches active upto today); flaws in how and what they say about the world, morality, ethic, humanity, human mind etc (ofc the worlds 'lokas' can be a fantasy, a plant-usage vision or a real thing, bu I mean your critical view on the practices of Budda's teachings). Thank you and perhaps you will find something helpful ^^
@@Justme-vz4px ok I will look into it and brush up on some things about Buddhism it has been about 12 years since I studied it in depth, but this is a good excuse for me to rediscover some Buddhist concepts and philosophy so thank you
@@phoenixdestinyhgh thank you as well, for taking my proposition for a topic to cover. I have way less study experience than you (a year of a semi-real practise, reading, contemplating, changing bits of myself), but I started being into Buddhsim less than two years ago, although Indo-Asian culture has always been present in my life and heart through what I was focusing on as a kid, values I had and so on (balance, honour, loyality etc). Either way, thanks again, I would recomend you reading some suttas/nikayas if you'd like to or just going the way you did, because you know better haha
i wanna thank you for reading the quran, Islam and Muslims have been given a lot of unnecessary hate thanks to the media and people who probably never met a Muslim person in their entire life, the first step to understanding each other as people is to always learn, and no better way to learn about Islam than the core of it which is the quran, may Allah bless you and guide you
Well, good on you for reading it as this means you know what is in this book and no one can feed you lies. However, Islam forbids the killing of people of the Muslims conquer. Allah says "Let there be no compulsion in religion, for the truth stands out clearly from falsehood. So whoever renounces false gods and believes in Allah has certainly grasped the firmest, unfailing hand-hold. And Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing". Therefore, you cannot force people to accept Islam if they do not wish to accept it. Islam is a way of life, not something you do once a week or a faith you declare. Pretty much everything a Muslim does is according to Islam. Second, the options are either accept Islam if you wish to do so or if not, you are free to live here and worship whatever you were worshipping and live your life as you were living before but you pay Jizya. The reason why non-Muslims are not asked to pay Zakat which is 2.5% of Muslim's wealth of that year which is collected during Ramada before Eid, is that zakat is a religious obligation and thus does not apply to non-Muslims, therefore, they pay jizya which tax for them to live and be protected in the country. Just like I pay tax here in Australia. If the person did not wish to accept Islam nor pay Jizya, they were free to leave.
If you decide to do another read through, I suggest choosing another translation. The Saheeh international translation and The Noble Quran by Muhammad Muhsin Khan are considered unanimously by scholars to be the best in the English language
I hope Allah floods your heart w light and guidance and more North Americans embrace Islam. Islam = is the science of being a good human being. The greatest gift of Allah to us is the technology of prayer. ❤
Read the Quran for the second time, you'll feel as if you read it for the first time! Every time you read it, you find new knowledge as if you read for the first time! Try it.
Islam.. is simple and straightforward. No BS! Simple message , worship the Creator and not the creation, submit to the will of Allah... Allah has made it that way, so that the people, world over can understand its message.. its simple and true message.. Then nobody will have excuses, in the afterlife. There is no compulsion in religion...no force , no threat, up to us to follow it...
And no, if you don't accept the Qur'an you don't have to die or be conquered etc. Because Qur'an says: "Let there be no compulsion in religion, for the truth stands out clearly from falsehood. So whoever renounces false gods and believes in Allah has certainly grasped the firmest, unfailing hand-hold. And Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing." [2:256]
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate. There is no god but God, He is One, He has no partner; His is the dominion, and His is the praise; He alone grants life, and deals death, and He is living and dies not; all good is in His hand, He is powerful over all things, and with Him all things have their end.
The fact that it is not ground breaking is actually right on the mark. Islam is the continuation of monotheism from all of the prophets, including Adam, Noah, Moses, and Jesus. Muhammad ﷺ is the continuation of the monotheistic message since Jesus’ teachings have been changed and are thus corrupted.
Thanks for your response! Btw, you misread in the video that it is a continuation of the Jew’s message while I wrote Jesus. No prob, just want to make sure that it understood. Islam is the continuation of both actually, but Jesus being more recent. Jesus is a beloved prophet of Islam-we love and revere him and his noble family.
Thank you so much for allowing time to read the Qura’n! Most importantly; Qura’n is meant to make you a good person; help you face life challenges and also consequential to that; you die peacefully and enjoy eternity in the afterlife! It’s not meant for you to be ruled over or conquered by anyone! Rather it helps you to submit totally to the will of your creator; Allah for which He rewards you with bliss in eternal life! Please give it a second read; you will emerge with a different and better perception!
As a muslim that not really religious and rarely pray even though its is a commands from The Father/God/Allah, i felt ashame for not even read arabic quran and not even read translation at all meanwhile others non muslim started they journey to seeking the truth as they can and meanwhile im already got the truth since birth but yet never ever want to read or spread its, even though God is the most forgiving but yet i felt like i already creat a place a house in hell 💔
Btw if you can raise ur voice Abit more would b better since I think it's was to low, I need to put my phone at my ear with full volume on x.x or maybe my phone problem
" Yet most men will not become believers, no matter how eager you may be." Quran 12:103 My question to you, do you want to be of these men? Or do you want to be a believer. May Allah guide you my friend
Hi You mentioned the themes of justice and afterlife their are also some other consistent message 1) The stories of the prophets. Essentially prophets emerging from within a nation or community commanding the people to worship God and God alone and a day of judgement. The stories of pharoah, ad, Thamud, lut as such Muhammed pbuh is as such a messenger. You will see in the quran God commanding or advising muhammed pbuh on certain issues. ..but the key difference is he is the last and not restricted to the arabs but mankind as a whole 2) Signs. The intention is for people to reflect. I don't know If the bible does this but the quran really encourages people to think, ponder and reflect based on the observation of the creation of the stars, rainfall, life and death how everything on earth is essentially subservient for us. It serves as proof but also an opportunity for us to be reminded it's all from God. You will see words similar to 'will you not reflect' Their are more but the point im trying to make is that the quran isn't simply trying to reform people from less civilised to moral. Its telling them their will be accountability. You should also look at the miracles of the quran.
The core of the Nobel Quran is to worship the one and only God. The All-Knowing . Anyhow, you need to read it by more understanding it . thanks for your consideration, and I wish you the best in your journey towards understanding Islam. ❤ ❤ ❤
Among other things, I'd like to say we're individualistic through our personalities, not just what we wear. Muslims are not just arabs. All of muslims around the world wear different things. Also, thank you for taking the time to read The Quran
Yes, i understand that perhaps was an oversimplification on my part, but it's still an obervation i notice.. of course, there are individuals and different personalities in islamic world, just maybe is less individualistic than Western countries and culture
The Prophet Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, said : * ( I swear ) By the One in Whose Hand is the life of Muhammad, no one from this nation, whether Jew or Christian, hears of me, then dies without believing in that with which I was sent, he will be one of the inmates of the Hell fire *
Thank you for your honest review and commentary of what (we Muslims believe) is the final, and finest, Word of God. May I respectfully state that modernist political analysis of any pre-modern culture, let alone one as thoroughly concerned with human justice as Islam, is a mistake of categories. "Conversions" even under the most ruthless Catholic kings were a walk in the park compared with modern options given to conquered and/or immigrated people. We must not only believe as our overlords do, we must eat, dress, govern, and establish cultural norms as the colonizing culture because they are "superior" by virtue of their material prowess. Never mind that such superiority was gained extremely dubiously. The ends justify the means, etc., etc. Anyone ascendant will push to remain so; anyone unfortunate has the natural impulse to change their fortunes for the better. Nothing is more human. The only question is how harmful or harmless to the rest of humanity are these impulses. Finally, is there any parallel to the worldwide savagery caused by western ascendancy? Your own people are answering (vehemently) in the negative.
Actually, when the Quran was being revealed, Islam was not a major force to be reckoned with in the region. In fact it was a very small group who were prosecuted and pretty powerless as far as military and political power is concerned.
To make it simple brother just ask Allah a question that if he is the one and only creator and that if Islam is the truth, ask him to give you a sign or 1,2, or 3. Surely, he will give you signs, but when those signs appear to you you must believe.
I recommend Imam Al-Bouti’s Fiqh As-Seerah as the work covers the life of the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) along with TRADITIONAL Islamic jurisprudence and contextualises many verses and expressions in the Qur’an. Islam is not just the Qur’an but the life of the Prophet and Hadith and more as well. Islamic law is the real meat of things when it comes to Muslim practice.
If you’re talking about the uniform/dress that men or women wear in gulf countries, that would account for about 3% of all muslims, so I don’t see how that point of yours holds… only when performing hajj there is a set of 2 plain cloths which all pilgrims wear.
Since you are born with your own free will like the rest of us, true muslims will be happy for you if you embrace Islam, otherwise it's you and only you who decide how the result of your existence should be and the Almighty Allah won't bring you that miraculous change, if you don't decide to change yourself
Just a comment on conversion: 1. Forced conversion to Islam is prohibited (Quran 2:256) and Muslims may only invite people to Islam (Quran 16:125) 2. The 3 choices you mentioned are not accurate! Muslims would invite people to Islam, if they don't embrace it, they will be paying jizyah, a tax that is paid only by financially capable males who can fight in the army, which means that women, children, elderly, the poor, monks and priests won't be paying jizyah. As written by many western historians such as Will Durant, jizyah is much lass than the taxes paid to the Byzantines and the Persians! Besides, Muslims pay zakat, 2.5% of their amassed wealth, while non-Muslim citizens don't have to pay zakat. The 3rd option would be fighting, and that would be army versus army, not attacking civilians, as it's strictly prohibited to harm civilians of any faith! (Quran 2:190) Last but not least, Muslims are commanded to be just and kind with peaceful non-believers who are citizens of the Muslim state (Quran 60:8) For more on Islamic tolerance to non-Muslims, I recommend "The Spread of Islam in the World" by Sir Thomas Arnold, and you may check many quotes on this topic from my RUclips channel. Go to playlists, and select: The Great Muslim Civilization. Have a nice day.
You misunderstood a few elements about Islam, but I will address only one : the meaning of Monotheism in Islam. You see, you described as if we're talking about homogeneity, the fact that we are all similar as Muslims and this couldn't be farther from the truth. Muslims across the globe speak different languages, have different cultures, have different ways of doing things... You can't find any more of a diverse religious group. That said, we all adhere to Monotheism which is the worship of one God. In the Islamic tradition, we believe messengers were sent to mankind to remind them to worship one supreme God, and if I remember the story correctly, it started with the first the grand children of Adam as some of his progeny started to worship to idols, statues and other man made diety. As Muslims, we believe every prophet that came was to remind mankind to worship One God, to abandon idolatry. If you study the stories of prophets in Islam, this is the one consistent red thread from earlier prophets to the last one Muhammed (peace and blessings upon them all). There's no compulsion in religion, Islam allowed people to keep their faith and the jizya paid was for their protection. If they didn't pay and were attacked they were on their own. "Let there be no compulsion in religion, for the truth stands out clearly from falsehood.1 So whoever renounces false gods and believes in Allah has certainly grasped the firmest, unfailing hand-hold. And Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing." Surah Al Baqarah (The cow), verse 256 We don't and can't force someone into becoming a Muslim as Allah looks at what's in the heart. We can all pretend outwardly to be Muslims and the intention holds a very importance place in the islamic tradition. The same can't be said about the crusades, Muslims especially in Spain and other parts of Europe had to convert and change their names to survive a brutal regime that terminated them without mercy. I hope you continue to research and educate yourself. Allah calls us to ponder and reflect, research and learning is encouraged. The worse kind of believe is the one that follows blind faith. The very first word of the Quran which was revealed through archangel Gabriel was "Read". “Proclaim! (or read!) in the name of thy Lord and Cherisher, Who created - Created man, out of a (mere) clot of congealed blood: Proclaim! And thy Lord is Most Bountiful, He Who taught (the use of) the pen, Taught man that which he knew not” [Quran, 96:1-5]. There are many more verses promoting learning and studying, to reflect... this is the only religion that encourages you to seek knowledge. Ignorance is truly an ennemy for all.
In order to learn about something, you have to get it from its primary source, so i encourage you to read about and discover about Islam from Islamic sources such as Islamic scholars who have good knowledge & understand of such topics, Islamic literature and etc. To get a better understanding of some topics or points that you are interested in Good luck, and may Allah guide you to the truth🤲
If you go back to the first verse of Quran, it really depends on your intent. The verse says this is a book were there is no doubt, a guide those mindful of Allah. So if your reading to breeze through it and interpret it? You must be of very high intellect and know all the books of religion to determine or critique a book. We’re as if you read it with intent to determine truth and falsehood or any other intent then you will hear the truths your seeking. You seem emotionally charged a little when you mention how the creator Allah gives a verse and not make to take another choice as it being manipulative. Remember Islam means submission to the creator named Allah but in Quran Allah is described by many names. The Quran is your instruction manual to save yourself from the evil in this world and to follow and submit your will to God and not enslave your being to any other ideology or master ( master could be a company, government or occult? Etc) Remember the context of Quran, Bible or Torah life is a test and obligations from Allah are to give maybe 20 minutes of your time in the day to worship and other acts of worship etc and to follow the doctrine for example laws, shall not kill, not have sexual relations out of wedlock etc, Yet most of us and Muslims live their life as it’s this life means everything and little preparation of here after. The test is to believe in unseen which is a hard act to follow for some and take the message seriously. If one were to follow teachings they are surely tested and may feel I have not followed my dream of creating their heaven on earth and fall for the whisper of Satan inspired to commit sin. In the end you decide it’s fact or fiction and that is kind of your test
@@phoenixdestinyhgh Thank you for sharing. You come across to me as a thinker and that is going to take a lot of work and reflection on your part. The Quran is not just a book but a living doctrine with each letter being speech of Allah, so each letter is charged with energy and life and even embodied with creation from Allah for its protection on earth. Whether you use this social engineering for what ever reason is no one’s concern but let me tell you in advance the truth will prevail and you already witnessed that phenomena from other social channels. Enjoy the journey and again if your intent is to prove Quran is right or wrong, it doesn’t matter as the Almighty knows your intent and guides whom he wills! And ignore negative comments and do not get caught up in them as it will just drain you of your energies and it’s better served to build your channel
I'm a Muslim and I'm not angry with you. God tells us in the Koran that man is free to believe or not to believe. Ultimately, it's God who holds people responsible for their actions, but God's religion is Islam. It's the religion of the prophets Adam, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Mohammed.
I appreciate your sincerity and effort. The truth is very strange. Its effect is different as it depends on the receptor. "Good" would like it and enjoy its feel, "evil" doesn't like it and doesn't wanna be near it, as it reminds him of being wrong. Good vs. evil is when a very sweet man, an honoured prophet like jesus Pbuh, gets labelled as a bad guy and gets tortured. One of God's names is Alhaq, meaning the truth. You could try to wipe out the truth, but the truth will always win. 14 centuries of disaterous history of constant attacks to demolish islam to erase the quran, and they've failed. It's god swt who preserved it, and it's done by his wisdom. It's not going to heal you unless you're sincere about looking for the truth of our existence. I wish you blessings and guidance to the truth.
Its a good first read , i like ur honesty, but as u said u want to read again ,but this time take ur time and think about each verse and the surrounding context and that their is a bigger context spread out in thr book, for example u read about ismail and some of his attributes, question is why is there a verse that talks about these attributes, u want to bring all the verses that talk about ismail and read between them, same for other matters , it helps if u use ur phone for a few different translations , itll give u a better insight on the original verses since u cant read it in arabic and thus will miss fine details (i am fluent in arabic i know the difference) , ill give u an example, when u read verses that give examples like and lightning (all but) snatches away their eyesight; every time a flash gives them light, they walk by it; and when darkness falls upon them, they stand still. And if Allah willed, He would certainly take away their hearing and their eyes: surely Allah is powerful to do anything. { یَكَادُ ٱلۡبَرۡقُ یَخۡطَفُ أَبۡصَـٰرَهُمۡۖ كُلَّمَاۤ أَضَاۤءَ لَهُم مَّشَوۡا۟ فِیهِ وَإِذَاۤ أَظۡلَمَ عَلَیۡهِمۡ قَامُوا۟ۚ وَلَوۡ شَاۤءَ ٱللَّهُ لَذَهَبَ بِسَمۡعِهِمۡ وَأَبۡصَـٰرِهِمۡۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَیۡءࣲ قَدِیرࣱ } [Surah Al-Baqarah: 20] Take a seat back and imagine it ,put urself in that senario and see what type of pshyc it will cause and then look in the surrounding verses talking about these types of people and what they did and what their attributes are , and the scatered verses that talks about people with such attributes , itll give u a deeper insight , i hope this helps in ur journey , best of luck brorher , and rememeber the last verse u quoted
This book is for everyone it's the final revelation from god

Allah the Muslim god has just one prophet, an illiterate prophet called Mohama. (SAWS, SAWS)
Allah has no prophet other than Mohama. Allah popped up in the 6th century in Arabia out of nowhere.
How than can he be God ?
Where are the uncorrupted writings of the prophets, the so called original message of Allah ?
If Allah is indeed God, why is there no record of the uncorrupted writings of the prophets, that Allah supposedly sent ?
That the Bible is corrupted, is a lie fabricated by Muslims, to cover up for the fact that Allah has only one illiterate
prophet Mohama.
If the Jews inserted the name of Issac, what was Allah doing ?
Was he busy looking for a wife ?
Where are Allah's original uncorrupted writings ? if Allah could not protect and preserve his word from
corruption by the Jews and Christians, that he is impotent , and cannot be the creator or sustainer of this universe.
Allah sending his prophets was a vain exercise by a helpless god.
All of God's word is Eternal and not for a specific period of time. as Allah or his camel doctor Zakir Naik claims.
If he could perfectly preserve the Quran, why was he not able to preserve the writings of the prophets ?
If he says the Torah and the Gospels were for a specific period period of time, than the same reasoning could be
applied to the Quran, that it was only for his illiterate prophet and Arabs of the 6th century.
By this reasoning, it is clear that Allah is a illegitimate god, and a deceiver and a liar and he cannot be the creator or sustainer of this universe.
This book isn’t for a specific groups but for guidance for humankind/mankind and those who believe and implement the verses/fully submits to the will of Allah are called muslimeen quran 43:69

the biggest msitake in my opinion is when you assume that Quran is a different message from a different God. You have to read witn a mindset that this message is from the same God of Ibraham Moses and Jesus, then u might start to understand. This is a continuation of God's msg to Humans. this is advanced religion, you are already past elemetary, middle school. high school, college, and MBA, this is your PHD if you are willing to go there. As in all scienses, it get refined and corrected by the passage of time and thats what the Quran is.

100%. Even if you watch "Ten Commandments" from 1953, the arab bedouins who sheltered Moses, they talking about descending from Abraham through Ishmael. Those same arabs fall into idolatry and receive the Last Prophet

@@seekthetruthandthetruthwil2388 🌹🌿🌺☘🌻🍀🍁🌷🪴🌱💐Haha, do you know Hubble? Dear sir, please calm down, why are you angry? Who told you that Muhammad worships the god Hubal? Whoever tells you that is deceiving you and lying to you. Muhammad believes in the same God as Abraham, Moses, Noah, Jacob, David, Solomon, and all the prophets. Muhammad believes in the same God whom Jesus prostrated to and hoped that He would forgive him and forgive people. Muhammad believes in the same God, but who is this God that Muhammad, Abraham, Moses, Noah, and Jacob worshiped? And Solomon, Yahya, and Jesus? He is God, not Jehovah. Abraham, Joseph, Jacob, Isaac, Noah, and David died and did not know that there was a God named Jehovah. I prove to you what is the name of the angels Gabriel. Michael. The name is made up of two words, Mica and El, so it is Mica, El. Likewise, the names Ishmael, Ishmael, El, Israel, Asrael, El. The name is made up of two syllables, the second of them. It is the name of the god, Deer, and it is a pronunciation of the name of the god to which Muhammad turned. Deer = God was known in Iraq 6000 years ago. Note that Babylon is called Bab El = God’s Gate = God’s Gate = God’s Gate Also in Yemen, the god Deer was known, and the Yemenis worshiped him and depicted him in the form of a deer. =The sheep stands tall and proud, raising its head to the sky. The Yemenis painted the god El in the image of a sheep in its lofty stance. In Yemen, Noah, Lot, Abraham, Moses, Jacob, David, Solomon, and Christ lived. I hope you will search to find out. Unfortunately, your scholars are deceiving you.💐💐

Good of you to share your thoughts, you mentioned that you did not find the Quran “Ground breaking” but what do you think will happen when AI fails and the world is plunged into poverty, when the curtain is lifted what remain is your ability to withstand darkness with your moral code and continue to persevere. If your expecting innovation in order to believe then you have completely over looked the fact that enriching of the heart is done on the inside not with fancy knowledge and materialism and the Quran and the teachings of the Prophet give us all we need to know to let go of our attachments to desires and our fears. The work is measured on the inside not with external materialistic variables that will soon perish away, we work on whats permanent the refinement of the heart and the soul
In a world deprived of progress, Quran is far from giving us all the knowledge and moral teaching we need on a society level.
We already live in a poberty of having so much, cathegorising one another as "us" "them", when we are all humans
AI will never raise, we just are too dependent as we often get dependend either by technology, gurus and stuff

Why do people want muslims only to pay taxes? Why do people not want non-muslims who live in muslim states to just enjoy a tax-free life? Is that fair in your book? Muslims pay Zakat, non muslims had to pay something at some point ... jizya, which, a lot of times, was lower than zakat.
Actually, it was Military Service exemption tax for Men of age. No jizya for Women, Old Men, Children, Insane, I have doubt in case of Impotent men.

@@phoenixdestinyhgh I am an ex atheist. I think the most critical verse is surah 13 verse 27. There are similar verses. In essence they say Allah guides those who turn to him. 40:13 42:13 have a similar message.
@@phoenixdestinyhgh This is a starting point for those agnostic about religion.
Supposing you only know there is there is some God (since you have figured out that part) and no other information about who or what he is
Thus you are with no information of which God may be the true god.
Consider the Following Statements.
If I say Worship A who is the true god. This statement may or may not be true..
If I say Worship B who is the true god. This statement may or may not be true..
if I say Worship John, the man who is the true god. This statement may or may not be true..
if I say Worship the Sun, the Star who is the true god. This statement may or may not be true..
However if I say Worship the creator the universe, who is the true God. That is a true statement! Since you are specifying God as he who created the universe and not a particular object person.
That is the true God and to worship him is the true religion.
God is specified exactly this way in the Quran including Surah Kahf.
Point is Muhammad SWAS came and basically told us to worship that God. Look the the mulsim prayers and duas, they apply on the creator of the universe. If you mean Allah to mean the creator, then Subhan Allah (Allah is perfect), Alhamdolillah (All praise if for Allah), Allah o Akbar (Allah is the greatest), La ilaha illalah (The is no God but Allah), La huwal walquwata illah billah (There is no power but with Allah). Surah Fatheha. You list them, they are all completely valid prayers for the creator.

i do have to say, although you may already know, but the Quran is truly best experienced when listened and followed along to, as the lands of Arabia prior to Islam was one wherein poetry was highly valued and determined status, and so the Quran came to convince these people using their own prized methods. I recommend listening to some of the later Meccan Surahs like Surah Takwir to get get the feeling. But God bless you for seeking the truth🙏
Thank you for your recommendation, I will look into that and perhaps listen to Quran as opposed to reading next
What greater understanding would be gained from listening to the Quran recited in Arabic, as opposed to reading a translation of it?
@@MrSlaternaterit is not a matter of understading what is being said. As you pointed out, the translation is essential if you are not speaking arabic. But listening to it may help you appreciate another aspect of it, mainly literary, that is the unique style and beauty of recitation that add value to the meaning. As an example I can say that it is like translating poetry, only the original language has all aspects that contribute its beauty, while if you translate you will get the message but you will not be able to grasp all of its beauty and complexity
@@MrSlaternaterI may suggest someone like Al Afasy or Al Sudais
@@MrSlaternateras reciters I mean

The Quran is the epitome of Islam. I congratulate this young man for his willingness to engage with the information on some level, which is a basic requirement for any kind of meaningful consideration. Islam holds the presupposition that mankind has a numinous nature toward the Divine Creator. And it's for this very reason there's an undenible universal religiosity in all human cultures. While simultaneously, we seem to owe it to ourselves to bring the best intellectual prowess to the subject matter ,due to its profound implications on what it means to be sapient creatures. Moreover, all things considered human beings' intellect has a finite ability" to know", and we presuppose our senses and intellect are able to determine what is suffice based upon what seems ito be most plausible , and what proves to be most credible. And this is morally and intellectually the foundation of a knowledge-based Faith system found in Islam.
Wow, mind blowing that last passage you just read actually applied directly to you !!!!!

The main message of the Quran is to worship no one but the one true God. And no body else. And to follow His Guidance.
It's great that you are reading the English translation of the Quran. I think there are some misunderstandings here. Firstly, your comments on the Quran being a lot like the bible. Each book was given over time, the Torah, Injeel (Bible) and finally Quran which was the end of revelation. The Torah and Injeel have not been preserved as we can see i.e. the different versions, change in text, as you mentioned here, language has a lot to do with this, but there are significant differences within the different versions. The Quran, which is very different again in nature as it was not written down initially, it was recited by the Prophet (peace be upon him), and completed during his lifetime. Until today it has not been altered in any way. Here begs the questions, why weren't the Torah and Injeel (Bible) preserved but the Quran is. To understand the beauty and depth of Quran we need to understand the Arabic language used to write it, and Tafsir (explanation of the meaning). It also helps to read and understand the life of the Prophet (pbuh), I strongly recommend The Sealed Nectar which is a book about the life of the Prophet (pbuh). You also mention there is some manipulation, excuse me if I have misunderstood what you mean, but I assume you mean the warnings of hell if you don't live according to the text. I don't see this as manipulation at all. I see this as this is going to happen whatever you believe, and Allah is telling us a way to avoid this, if we choose to. 'There is no compulsion in religion' (Surah Baqarah vs 256). I hope you decided to do more research as it will give you a greater understanding.
I think you’d love watching Jeffrey Lang Purpose of life it’s very good the way he explains it is very interesting and I’m sure it would help you find the groundbreaking stuff you’re looking for
Also the Arabic is something that shocked the Arabs at the time and to this day they thought it was magic or poetry and the prophet Pbuh could not read or write that’s a miracle that amazed many
I suggest you listen to it in Arabic with English translation

You mentioning it's not "ground breaking" reminded me the verse of the Quran: Have they not travelled throughout the land so their hearts may reason, and their ears may listen? Indeed, it is not the eyes that are blind, but it is the hearts in the chests that grow blind. [22:46] ... What I learnt about the Qur'an was that it's a serious book for people who reason, who think, who ponder etc. Thank you for reading :)

Regarding Islamic Expansion, it was TWO options. Convert or Pay Jizyah Tax (and keep any religion that you practice.). This Jizyah tax was less than what the Muslims paid to the government (Zakat) and this Jizyah tax provided non-Muslims protection from the caliphate and it provided non-muslims exempt from military status. Meaning in case of any war whether was against the caliphate or against that specific religious group, non-muslims were not required to fight.
It's good to be informed. You just have to realize that what you read is a translation...
May God give you guidance to follow the right path & welcome to Islam 😊😊😊

Hey im a muslim and the first time reading the Quran i also had the feeling about some verses why they were there or i didnt understand some. But after reading more and getting more knowledge about the world we live in and the history, a lot more things started conecting and my faith increased. Also when you sin less and truly ask God for guiding you, you will get more knowledge, in sha Allah. May Allah guide us, ameen.

By reading Quran you can get closer to the creator of everything, but as you said there may be problematic translations, many of them interpolate meanings from their tradition because they believe the Quran can not be understood without the hadith. There are some independent linguists who have translated the Quran, namely Sam Gerrans and Shuaib Abdullahi (the correctional officer on youtube).

I enjoyed reading it, it was enlightening and gave me a better understanding of what Islam truly is
My follow up video, is Islam compatible with the West based on reading the Quran ruclips.net/video/SRXf-58I56Q/видео.html
After reading the Quran,take what you learned from the Quran and read the Bible and implement the ideals of it into it,like a standard.you’ll see a different point of view and what Jesus was preaching.because what Jesus preach people tend to put their own beliefs into the Bible.not the other way around.
Reading it 2nd or 3rd would be more interesting… that’s what happened to me i am finally getting it

If guidance prerequisites were intellect, enlightenment, intelligence, knowledge, etc. then simple people would be deprived. So God's will to guide the person, the person's need, seek, readiness and acceptance of guidance are also important factors.
I'm a Luciferian, striving to become a true Muslim. To fully understand Islam and to see the groundbreaking aspect, is when you're given the full truth and light in where you're led, with an open heart to seek ultimate truth. Many polytheistic religions, and 3 main monotheistic religions, you must crossreference, from a gnostic standpoint. healthy pragmatism, unbiased skepticism, but open to change in our cognitive dissonances. For me, it was the concept of the hereafter, that led me astray, to question God's authority, and using my conscious understanding of the world and what i knew, through these questions; i refused to believe the concept of Hell, or that it was simply unfair. I have a strong, unconditional love for the world, i can feel it within my heart and soul, and I empathize to all. It's a dark place, but through my journeys, ive realized that life is beautiful in its own dark ways. I grew to understand that, we really dont know it all. What we understand is limited in contrast to that of the Most HIgh. You also have to dive into the Hadith, and other histories, to gain a grander understanding. I'm still undergoing my journey, ive had my fair share of psychedelics and dives into the esoteric; all around i see what is considered shirk/"magic", simply a secret science- alchemical teachings as to how the Universe works, and it's principles etc. When you open your third eye, you're gifted sight of the unseen- but this also in turn is in its own way make the individual susceptible to being misguided by a false light, which the Quran strictly warns you about. We're here in the Dunya, this "matrix" or simulation of life, with tests to guide us and whether or not we choose to accept a truth once shown or not would lead us either further or closer to Divine alignment. Salvation is not from a person who died for our sins, but within oneself, to understand that "Christ Consciousness", and what they really meant. Mind you, the bible was corrupted by secret societies like Knights Templar etc- the Freemasons are active up till this day. Look around what's going in the world, politics, who are strongly being targeted, from the Uyghurs in China, to the children suffering in Palestine- who are the peddlers of evils, the tyrants, who do they want to silence?
The Quran cannot be corrupted, there are attempts, and other sects. But acknowledge the Hafiz, where the Quran is memorized top to bottom, every vowel.
You can kill a person, but not an idea.
Also note, a lot of these "Muslim Countries" that enforce such rules, have long been hijacked as corruption seeps into positions of power.
You don't follow these wrongs, you can only ponder on what scholars say, but truth is from within, and worldly history, and sciences.
Keep asking the questions, keep searching for truths, but with an open heart and don't let the fear consume you, but Love.
I pray and i will work and strive to continue expanding my knowledge and wisdom, and that i can find the strength within me to fully give up my worldly desires from the money, drugs, women, parties, and other "fun" worldly temptations, in submission for true salvation, to embody the 5 pillars in Islam, and to raise my frequency and my ranks in what goes down in the ether, to prepare for the divine prophecy and future wars, and to attain salvation from Allah swt.
also get some rest brother, kinda going thru rough patches myself and really searching and learning more, but well rest, balance, healthy diets, fresh air. Stay Zen, much love- Zen.

In Quran, Ayats (verses) rarely ends with letter "H" but in Surah al Shams (The Sun), all the ayats ends with letter "H". And Sun is mostly (%98) made of Hydrogen (H) and Helium (He).
You can read the entire Quran in 3 days? Well that's certainly a key difference with regards to the Bible.
I did I can read very fast, like in college i would last minute study and read full textbook in a few hours and end up doing well on the exam.

Well, good on you for reading it as this means you know what is in this book and no one can feed you lies. However, Islam forbids the killing of people of the Muslims conquer. Allah says "Let there be no compulsion in religion, for the truth stands out clearly from falsehood. So whoever renounces false gods and believes in Allah has certainly grasped the firmest, unfailing hand-hold. And Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing". Therefore, you cannot force people to accept Islam if they do not wish to accept it. Islam is a way of life, not something you do once a week or a faith you declare. Pretty much everything a Muslim does is according to Islam. Second, the options are either accept Islam if you wish to do so or if not, you are free to live here and worship whatever you were worshipping and live your life as you were living before but you pay Jizya. The reason why non-Muslims are not asked to pay Zakat which is 2.5% of Muslim's wealth of that year which is collected during Ramada before Eid, is that zakat is a religious obligation and thus does not apply to non-Muslims, therefore, they pay jizya which tax for them to live and be protected in the country. Just like I pay tax here in Australia. If the person did not wish to accept Islam nor pay Jizya, they were free to leave.

In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate.
There is no god but God, He is One, He has no partner; His is the dominion, and His is the praise; He alone grants life, and deals death, and He is living and dies not; all good is in His hand, He is powerful over all things, and with Him all things have their end.
The fact that it is not ground breaking is actually right on the mark. Islam is the continuation of monotheism from all of the prophets, including Adam, Noah, Moses, and Jesus.
Muhammad ﷺ is the continuation of the monotheistic message since Jesus’ teachings have been changed and are thus corrupted.

Thanks for your response! Btw, you misread in the video that it is a continuation of the Jew’s message while I wrote Jesus. No prob, just want to make sure that it understood. Islam is the continuation of both actually, but Jesus being more recent. Jesus is a beloved prophet of Islam-we love and revere him and his noble family.
Thank you so much for allowing time to read the Qura’n! Most importantly; Qura’n is meant to make you a good person; help you face life challenges and also consequential to that; you die peacefully and enjoy eternity in the afterlife! It’s not meant for you to be ruled over or conquered by anyone! Rather it helps you to submit totally to the will of your creator; Allah for which He rewards you with bliss in eternal life!
Please give it a second read; you will emerge with a different and better perception!

Hi
You mentioned the themes of justice and afterlife their are also some other consistent message
1) The stories of the prophets.
Essentially prophets emerging from within a nation or community commanding the people to worship God and God alone and a day of judgement. The stories of pharoah, ad, Thamud, lut as such Muhammed pbuh is as such a messenger. You will see in the quran God commanding or advising muhammed pbuh on certain issues. ..but the key difference is he is the last and not restricted to the arabs but mankind as a whole
2) Signs. The intention is for people to reflect. I don't know If the bible does this but the quran really encourages people to think, ponder and reflect based on the observation of the creation of the stars, rainfall, life and death how everything on earth is essentially subservient for us. It serves as proof but also an opportunity for us to be reminded it's all from God. You will see words similar to 'will you not reflect'
Their are more but the point im trying to make is that the quran isn't simply trying to reform people from less civilised to moral. Its telling them their will be accountability.
You should also look at the miracles of the quran.
The core of the Nobel Quran is to worship the one and only God. The All-Knowing . Anyhow, you need to read it by more understanding it . thanks for your consideration, and I wish you the best in your journey towards understanding Islam. ❤ ❤ ❤
Quran never won any Nobel.

Thank you for your honest review and commentary of what (we Muslims believe) is the final, and finest, Word of God. May I respectfully state that modernist political analysis of any pre-modern culture, let alone one as thoroughly concerned with human justice as Islam, is a mistake of categories.
"Conversions" even under the most ruthless Catholic kings were a walk in the park compared with modern options given to conquered and/or immigrated people. We must not only believe as our overlords do, we must eat, dress, govern, and establish cultural norms as the colonizing culture because they are "superior" by virtue of their material prowess. Never mind that such superiority was gained extremely dubiously. The ends justify the means, etc., etc.
Anyone ascendant will push to remain so; anyone unfortunate has the natural impulse to change their fortunes for the better. Nothing is more human. The only question is how harmful or harmless to the rest of humanity are these impulses. Finally, is there any parallel to the worldwide savagery caused by western ascendancy? Your own people are answering (vehemently) in the negative.

Just a comment on conversion:
1. Forced conversion to Islam is prohibited (Quran 2:256) and Muslims may only invite people to Islam (Quran 16:125)
2. The 3 choices you mentioned are not accurate! Muslims would invite people to Islam, if they don't embrace it, they will be paying jizyah, a tax that is paid only by financially capable males who can fight in the army, which means that women, children, elderly, the poor, monks and priests won't be paying jizyah. As written by many western historians such as Will Durant, jizyah is much lass than the taxes paid to the Byzantines and the Persians! Besides, Muslims pay zakat, 2.5% of their amassed wealth, while non-Muslim citizens don't have to pay zakat. The 3rd option would be fighting, and that would be army versus army, not attacking civilians, as it's strictly prohibited to harm civilians of any faith! (Quran 2:190)
Last but not least, Muslims are commanded to be just and kind with peaceful non-believers who are citizens of the Muslim state (Quran 60:8)
For more on Islamic tolerance to non-Muslims, I recommend "The Spread of Islam in the World" by Sir Thomas Arnold, and you may check many quotes on this topic from my RUclips channel. Go to playlists, and select: The Great Muslim Civilization.
Have a nice day.
You misunderstood a few elements about Islam, but I will address only one : the meaning of Monotheism in Islam.
You see, you described as if we're talking about homogeneity, the fact that we are all similar as Muslims and this couldn't be farther from the truth. Muslims across the globe speak different languages, have different cultures, have different ways of doing things... You can't find any more of a diverse religious group.
That said, we all adhere to Monotheism which is the worship of one God. In the Islamic tradition, we believe messengers were sent to mankind to remind them to worship one supreme God, and if I remember the story correctly, it started with the first the grand children of Adam as some of his progeny started to worship to idols, statues and other man made diety.
As Muslims, we believe every prophet that came was to remind mankind to worship One God, to abandon idolatry. If you study the stories of prophets in Islam, this is the one consistent red thread from earlier prophets to the last one Muhammed (peace and blessings upon them all).
There's no compulsion in religion, Islam allowed people to keep their faith and the jizya paid was for their protection. If they didn't pay and were attacked they were on their own.
"Let there be no compulsion in religion, for the truth stands out clearly from falsehood.1 So whoever renounces false gods and believes in Allah has certainly grasped the firmest, unfailing hand-hold. And Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing." Surah Al Baqarah (The cow), verse 256
We don't and can't force someone into becoming a Muslim as Allah looks at what's in the heart. We can all pretend outwardly to be Muslims and the intention holds a very importance place in the islamic tradition.
The same can't be said about the crusades, Muslims especially in Spain and other parts of Europe had to convert and change their names to survive a brutal regime that terminated them without mercy.
I hope you continue to research and educate yourself. Allah calls us to ponder and reflect, research and learning is encouraged. The worse kind of believe is the one that follows blind faith. The very first word of the Quran which was revealed through archangel Gabriel was "Read".
“Proclaim! (or read!) in the name of thy Lord and Cherisher, Who created - Created man, out of a (mere) clot of congealed blood: Proclaim! And thy Lord is Most Bountiful, He Who taught (the use of) the pen, Taught man that which he knew not” [Quran, 96:1-5].
There are many more verses promoting learning and studying, to reflect... this is the only religion that encourages you to seek knowledge. Ignorance is truly an ennemy for all.
I understand and thank you for the comment

If you go back to the first verse of Quran, it really depends on your intent. The verse says this is a book were there is no doubt, a guide those mindful of Allah. So if your reading to breeze through it and interpret it? You must be of very high intellect and know all the books of religion to determine or critique a book. We’re as if you read it with intent to determine truth and falsehood or any other intent then you will hear the truths your seeking. You seem emotionally charged a little when you mention how the creator Allah gives a verse and not make to take another choice as it being manipulative. Remember Islam means submission to the creator named Allah but in Quran Allah is described by many names. The Quran is your instruction manual to save yourself from the evil in this world and to follow and submit your will to God and not enslave your being to any other ideology or master ( master could be a company, government or occult? Etc) Remember the context of Quran, Bible or Torah life is a test and obligations from Allah are to give maybe 20 minutes of your time in the day to worship and other acts of worship etc and to follow the doctrine for example laws, shall not kill, not have sexual relations out of wedlock etc,
Yet most of us and Muslims live their life as it’s this life means everything and little preparation of here after. The test is to believe in unseen which is a hard act to follow for some and take the message seriously. If one were to follow teachings they are surely tested and may feel I have not followed my dream of creating their heaven on earth and fall for the whisper of Satan inspired to commit sin. In the end you decide it’s fact or fiction and that is kind of your test

@@phoenixdestinyhgh Thank you for sharing. You come across to me as a thinker and that is going to take a lot of work and reflection on your part. The Quran is not just a book but a living doctrine with each letter being speech of Allah, so each letter is charged with energy and life and even embodied with creation from Allah for its protection on earth. Whether you use this social engineering for what ever reason is no one’s concern but let me tell you in advance the truth will prevail and you already witnessed that phenomena from other social channels. Enjoy the journey and again if your intent is to prove Quran is right or wrong, it doesn’t matter as the Almighty knows your intent and guides whom he wills! And ignore negative comments and do not get caught up in them as it will just drain you of your energies and it’s better served to build your channel
I'm a Muslim and I'm not angry with you. God tells us in the Koran that man is free to believe or not to believe. Ultimately, it's God who holds people responsible for their actions, but God's religion is Islam. It's the religion of the prophets Adam, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Mohammed.
I appreciate your sincerity and effort. The truth is very strange. Its effect is different as it depends on the receptor. "Good" would like it and enjoy its feel, "evil" doesn't like it and doesn't wanna be near it, as it reminds him of being wrong. Good vs. evil is when a very sweet man, an honoured prophet like jesus Pbuh, gets labelled as a bad guy and gets tortured. One of God's names is Alhaq, meaning the truth. You could try to wipe out the truth, but the truth will always win. 14 centuries of disaterous history of constant attacks to demolish islam to erase the quran, and they've failed. It's god swt who preserved it, and it's done by his wisdom. It's not going to heal you unless you're sincere about looking for the truth of our existence. I wish you blessings and guidance to the truth.

Its a good first read , i like ur honesty, but as u said u want to read again ,but this time take ur time and think about each verse and the surrounding context and that their is a bigger context spread out in thr book, for example u read about ismail and some of his attributes, question is why is there a verse that talks about these attributes, u want to bring all the verses that talk about ismail and read between them, same for other matters , it helps if u use ur phone for a few different translations , itll give u a better insight on the original verses since u cant read it in arabic and thus will miss fine details (i am fluent in arabic i know the difference) , ill give u an example, when u read verses that give examples like
and lightning (all but) snatches away their eyesight; every time a flash gives them light, they walk by it; and when darkness falls upon them, they stand still. And if Allah willed, He would certainly take away their hearing and their eyes: surely Allah is powerful to do anything.
{ یَكَادُ ٱلۡبَرۡقُ یَخۡطَفُ أَبۡصَـٰرَهُمۡۖ كُلَّمَاۤ أَضَاۤءَ لَهُم مَّشَوۡا۟ فِیهِ وَإِذَاۤ أَظۡلَمَ عَلَیۡهِمۡ قَامُوا۟ۚ وَلَوۡ شَاۤءَ ٱللَّهُ لَذَهَبَ بِسَمۡعِهِمۡ وَأَبۡصَـٰرِهِمۡۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَیۡءࣲ قَدِیرࣱ }
[Surah Al-Baqarah: 20]
Take a seat back and imagine it ,put urself in that senario and see what type of pshyc it will cause and then look in the surrounding verses talking about these types of people and what they did and what their attributes are , and the scatered verses that talks about people with such attributes , itll give u a deeper insight , i hope this helps in ur journey , best of luck brorher , and rememeber the last verse u quoted
Thank you i appreciate your comment
