the koran was written in a very uncompramising manner and unamenable to change, has this become a burden ...?

Question

for our islamic fellows, and has it been therefore deliberatly misinterperated to get round this??

Answer 1

Which Koran? This one or the one they commonly say is the only one?
http://cremesti.com/amalid/Islam/Yemeni_Ancient_Koranic_Texts.htm

excerpt:
Since the early 1980s more than 15,000 sheets of the Yemeni Korans have painstakingly been flattened, cleaned, treated, sorted, and assembled; they now sit ("preserved for another thousand years," Puin says) in Yemen's House of Manuscripts, awaiting detailed examination. That is something the Yemeni authorities have seemed reluctant to allow, however. "They want to keep this thing low-profile, as we do too, although for different reasons," Puin explains. "They don't want attention drawn to the fact that there are Germans and others working on the Korans. They don't want it made public that there is work being done at all, since the Muslim position is that everything that needs to be said about the Koran's history was said a thousand years ago."

Answer 2

I saw an interesting program a few weeks back that talked about the language of the koran and the era in which it was written. Can't remember the name now, but it was a pbs program.
Very war-torn times, martial thinking, etc....

Answer 3

I don't find it a burden I find living an Islamic life very easy.
There are very few things that are Haram and focusing on these few things is not something i feel the need to do.

Who is misinterpreting it? I only find non Muslims misinterpret it. God has given his revelations so who has the authority to change what God has revealed? Only God.
