Aleksandr Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Muslims don't worship a man, allah is the creator of the universe or just the universe itselfMuslims do worship a man - one called Mohammed. That makes it a cult you see. They also worship the 'moon god', Allah, so that makes it a religion too. It's dichotomous, and to an extent, due to the reverence that they have for Mohammed, Islam is practically polytheistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aleksandr Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Yes the qur'aan is impossible to translate 100% in englishThat's not true - anything can be translated into English! That some of it doesn't make sense when it is translated in no way reflects on the quality or accuracy of the translation. Methinks, having read the MCGB's translation, it is more the case that it is unwise to translate rather than impossible, for it is then that English speakers get an objective understanding of it, and can see it for what it is.
