Michael’s Reviews > THE QUR'AN (Oxford Classic Edition - BEST TRANSLATION in English): A new translation by M.A.S. Abdel Haleem > Status Update

i think islamophobia, like antisemitism, is basically a disease.

what i think of a sacred text is not important to the world. for example, i think the old testament glorifies intolerance & vandalism (smashing idols); swindling (jacob & esau); forced circumcision (judah mac); & new glorifies snappy comebacks. who cares; what do believers think?

i don’t love this text. interested to find two distinct “voices.”
