52- The QuranSaloni Jain

The holy book of the Islamic religion is the Quran. The Quran contains 114 chapters, which is also known as suras and is the words transcribed from God. The founder on earth of this religion is Muhammad, he had taught his 28 disciples that the Quran is the book for all religions, however Jews and Christians adjusted it to fit their religions needs.

Every religion has different views on how mankind is created. In Islamic religions it was believe that mankind was created via a blood clots. Religions during this time had many arguments regarding the law, since each religion believes that their law is the one from god. Although Abraham was the first one to be sent down, divergence was created due to disputes in beliefs.

In Islamic religions women are inferior to men because they believe that god has bestowed upon them with certain qualities, which make them the superior ones. An obedient woman makes a good woman. Woman are not property and nor should they be treated as inferior. Woman can do all the things men do and can do it better depending on the situation. Woman, in current times, can give birth, go to work, and take care of the house and family. This makes woman a superwoman because she can do it all. Women are equal to men and should never be considered otherwise. Women have to cover themselves and hide their ornaments to prevent temptations of others. This is a protection mechanism from evil and wandering eyes. Is this truly necessary? Women arent animals or dirt where they should be controlled or given instructions on how to live their life. Woman who covers their head to symbolizes commitment to god, but then men should do it too. The creation of mankind wasnt created with veils and clothing to cover them. They were brought into this world naked. I feel that men and women should be treated equally.

Abraham was neither a Jew nor Christian; he was the messenger of god. The sacred house created by Allah, and the only person who everyone should be worshipping is Allah. Muslims believe that since Islamic religion was created before others that it is the only religion that should be followed. Everyone in this world has different opinions and faiths and they should be respected. Religion should be followed to a certain extent, and people should believe what they think is right. It is good to have guidance from your religion but it should be seen with and open mind. When it comes to religion, I look at it with an open mind and I ask questions until it makes sense. It is similar to science it has to be proven to me to believe it. After reading this passage, I have realized based on my interpretation that Abraham was the messenger of god and transcribed his words and shared it with the people. Do we have proof that god actually spoke to him or is it his beliefs that he shared with other Muslims?
