//V_E quite correct i would not read it i probably couldn't. How many people feel similar i wonder? How many muslims even have the same thoughts, i wonder if all the muslims in the world have read the entirety//
Couldn't agree more, Spath.
As it's the "perfect Word of God" and has existed unchange for all time, it is an act of piety to memorise the Koran in its entirety. (My local mosque does lessons helping Muslim children from eight to fourteen to memorise it) But that's in its classical Arabic form, so it's just meaningles rote learning.
Plenty of practising Muslims., I am sure, would be horrified if they new exactly what their scriptures teach and how their Prophet acted (which was pretty much the way ISIS acts now). But most of this country's imams, and most of the self-appointed "community" spokesmen do know these things.
