For those of you who might still doubt the validity of the claim that Islam condones paedophilia and worships a paedophile, I would like to draw your attention to the second most important book in Islam after the Quran: The Translation of the Meanings of Sahih Al-Bukhari - Arabic-English. In particular I would like to draw your attention to Sahih Bukhari 5.236: After some research I have found the actual text in the Quran that proves that it does encourage sex with prepubescent girls (a.ka. girls who have not menstruated yet). Please find below the actual Arabic text, it's transliteration and it's translation. Again, I do not read/speak Arabic, but I trust my sources to be correct.

This, as many people know, is the Holy Book of Islam. It is composed of 114 chapters, called surahs, and each surah has several verses. From a statistical point of view, the opening surahs tend to be longer than the closing ones. The second surah, for example, entitled "The Cow", has 286 verses, while the 110th surah only has three. Each surah opens with In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful. Say: ‘O People of the Scripture! Do you disapprove of us for no other reason than that we believe in Allah, and the revelation that has come to us and that which came before (us), and because most of you are rebellious and disobedient?’” (Quran 2:59) The Quran is the literal, spoken Word of Allah revealed to the last Prophet Muhammad( PBUH), may the mercy and blessings of Allah be upon him, through Gabriel, the Angel of Revelation, transmitted to us by numerous channels, both verbally and in written form. Inimitable and unique, it is divinely protected from corruption. God says:

Muhammad Zafrulla Khan, The Koran ( The Koran. The Eternal Revelation Vouchsafed to Muhammed, the Seal of the Prophets. Arabic Text with a New Translation). Holy Quran is a complete code of life along with the sayings of the last Prophet Muhammad( PBUH). Quran has translations available in various languages of the world so that people can understand it in their native language. By Reading 4 times Chapter No 109 which only contains 6 verses you will again get the reward of reading full Holy Quran.

Men have authority over women because God has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them. Good women are obedient. They guard their unseen parts because God has guarded them. As for those for whom you fear disobedience, admonish them, forsake them in beds apart, and beat them. Then if they obey you, take no further action against them." And this is the word of God. Women must be obedient; disobedient women can be beaten. This is unacceptable to me. But another reason I wanted to read the Qur'an is because I wanted to put my thoughts to the test. I identify as an atheist, which means that I rejected the belief of religion in general. But in actuality, I've never known what I was rejecting, at least with respect to Islam. I need to read about it first, before I can be more comfortable in saying that I do not buy it as well. After all, it's the scientific approach, that of experimentation.

English translation by T.B.Irving (T.B Irving was an American Muslim author, professor, and scholar, who produced the first American English translation of the Quran). In a surprise move, the author has now been changed yet again to 'ALLAH "the creator" (As believed in Islam)'. Match that if you can, Infidels!

However, when they occur together, as in Surah al-Fatihah, the adjectives “entirely” and “especially” have been used to indicate the complementary relationship between the two. Quran is the only book in the world that covers all the aspects of life for the guidance of human beings.

Muhammad Muhsin Khan& Muhammad Taqi ud-din al-Hilali, Explanatory English Translation of the Holy Qur’an. I'm particularly impressed by the good sportsmanship both sides are displaying. Who says a religious war can't be carried out in a civilized and courteous manner?

In this regard, Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) said, “To me, it is better to correctly recite only Surat Al-Baqarah and Surat AalImran and reflect upon their meanings than to heedlessly recite the whole Qur’an.” Those unfamiliar with Quranic style might question the shifting of pronouns in many verses, which is again, alien to English. This cannot be eliminated in translation, however, without loss to intended meanings. I initially wanted to read the Qur'an because it is believed that the Qur'an is the most spectacular piece of Arabic literature. It also helps perhaps to understand what the cultural references are to novels that I have read in the past, especially those that dealt with Islamic characters. I previously read Orhan Pamuk's My Name is Red and Nagīb Maḥfūẓ's Palace Walk, and it would definitely have helped if I had a better idea what were the religious assumptions that the characters held. Now that I have read the Qur'an, it would be easier to see where these characters are coming from.iii) His note on verse eleven of Surah Al-Naml that “Moses had been guilty of a crime in Egypt”, 47 being too curt, tends to present Prophet Moses in a poor light. He should have clarified that Prophet Moses had inadvertently killed a Copt and as the Quran adds, he soon repented and that God had accepted his repentance. And We have indeed made the Qur’an easy to understand and remember, then is there any that will remember (or receive admonition)? ( Chapter No 54, Verse No 22 – Holy Quran )
