Bottom line: A well organized site doesn't mean the content nor assertions are true. And that is the whole point of these discussions, what information is true, what is false, and is it being used correctly and accurately in context (historical, philosophical, theological, etc...) and what is merely propoganda and what real conclusions can be drawn. These types of discussions are not simple. This is a place to start if a westerner was interested in seeing some very basic assertions by western Muslims regarding the religion of Islam. Nothing more.

i dont think u invested enough time to read it carefully and fully ...well yes i can agree with u that early stories are present both in islam and other religions , 2 things u can notice:
1-some stories are the same
2-there exist diffrence in others
conclusion : muhammad didnt rely on old stories from the bible or torah ,yet there exist similarities ...ie : the source of all of these is the same , but something wrong happened in our interpretation that lead to such diffrences ......which is more accurate , ok let s go to the next section
science , no one can deny that backing up with scientifical proof is a very strong argument
some quick facts about quran
1-revealed 1400years ago
2-mohammad was analphebetic and the community he lived in was mostly analphebetic .
3-the quran was revealed to mohammad ,the several revelations which were spread along 23 years , were gathered in one book directly after the death of mohammad .
4-since 1400 years we have the same copy of the quran , ie , the quran we have now is the same as the one 1400years ago : proof : same text in all copies present around the world and same when compared to previous copies which date back 1000years ago
5-a quick fact about the style of the quran : the style of quran has nothing similar to it in the arabic language , so suppose some one wanna modify or add a verse ,it s practically impossible because the style will differ greatly ,several attempts by non-muslims has been done but failed and no one was able to come up with a style ,so elegant and accurate like the style of the quran , am not using this argument to convince u since u dont know arabic am just referring to the impossibility of altering the quranic text since that will be directly discovered
the result :
a lot of verses talked about natural phenomenas , and telled details about it and gave scientifique info that were not discovered but until recently in this late century using sophisticated equipments , a lot of scientists were surprised and admitted that and a lot more embraced islam , bec such thing is a clear evidance that quran is a divine revelation, one example is prof.keith moore.....one of the most famous anatomists and embryologists in the world ....any medical student in the USA and canada should have heard of him bec his textbook is taught in most med schools , he saw the quranic description of embryo development and was surprised how accurate it was and matched recent findings in that field ,although revealed 1400 years ago where there exist no endoscopes nor any high tech equipment ............more examples can be found examples of areas covered : embryology , geology , astronomy .........
hope u enjoyed while u was reading ............
