52- The Quran

Saloni 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?
