Is the quran nothing more then 2000 year old military regulations?

Question

Can't eat pork, Not good for soldiers to take to war,
Solders won't desert to go back to there wifes because they will never be unfaithful,No alcohol ect ect.

Answer 1

thats b.s.

Answer 2

No,

Firstly pork has been the staple of many a military campaign, many past soldiers joined an army to get AWAY from there wives and a bloody good drink was what soldiers looked forward to after a long battle.

Secondly the Qur'an is only about 1300 years old.

Thirdly if it is a military manual what has it taught?

Blow-up and kill innocent people?
Keep women subjugated?
Punish people for not having the right length beard?

Answer 3

Basically yes. So too is much of the Holy Bible - how to blow down the walls of a city while only using rams horns - Battle of Jericho. Load of baloney. Jericho has no walls and never ever had any. Propaganda then!? Probably.

Thing about the Curran is that it does go on a bit about swords.

I once found a picture on the Internet of two swords which once belonged to Mohamed.

It gets even worse when you discover that the Nazis employed thousands of Muslims in the SS. Adolf Hitler liked Muslims, because as he said, "they will die for any cause".

Answer 4

I dont think so, its just a religous doctrine in order to live the muslim lifestyle, all religions have them. Ill admit, muslim doctrine is strict but then again when it was created that was most likely the norm. Now in this day & age the world is more free & out there. I give Islam respect because throught history & up to today they have kept their traditions a way of life since its inception. But thats also its down side, even christianity changes with the times. Its just their way, but I wouldnt equal out the quaran to be a old military regulation book.

Answer 5

A stupid Troll question.

Most European Armies lived on Pork & Roast beef with the odd fowl thrown in.

One of the many reasons for desertion was a soldiers love of his family.

The U.S. Navy is dry (no booze) while at sea does that make them part time Muslims??

Answer 6

No. It does have military regulations, notably, not inflicting war upon a civilian population (something that the west ignored at the time when Islam took hold across large parts of the world), which unfortunately, is something that suicide bombers have either not been told, or have been lied to in that it 'does not apply' to today.

But as noted above, it has much much more in it as well, notably who to live your life with the minimum of temptation, as well as how to live in peace with your fellow man. (Like all religions really.)

Answer 7

Sure. That explains the pages and pages on charity, helping your neighbors, prayer, and cultural features, as well as the many, many different interpretations of the text.

Oh, wait. I guess none of that has anything to do with soldiers. Hmm.

Answer 8

Just blunders and slip-ups with human errors created back in the past without being aware of the mess that crept out in time being expose after the mystery of us-911.
Luke 10.24
The best kept dirty little secrets of the past hidden in the graves for centuries being expose in time.
Luke 6.39-40,41-45,46-49
When the cheap-skate ghostly kitchen's ghost stories and ghostly modern history of failures and horrors of the past written in ghostly kitchen's dialect with ghostly and deadly words was created from poor memories that muddled up from time to time as record keeping of the misery of past ancestors to be hidden in time.
Until the grave-diggers dig it all up in pulling down their pants in baring their backsides in exposing the misery of someone else ghostly ancestor's culture and custom without being aware of the mess of their own creation in own backyards.
Luke 8.10, 17
What do you think?
Luke 9.60
