Art. #13:  WHAT IS THE QUR’AN ABOUT?   The Qur’an, the last revealed Word of God, is the prime source of every Muslim’s faith and practice.  It deals with all the subjects that concern us as human beings: wisdom, doctrine, worship, and law, but its basic theme is the relationship between God and His creatures.  At the same time it provides guidelines for a just society, proper human conduct and an equitable economic system.

REBUTTAL:  Most persons might suppose that a “just society” would protect women and children, reject slavery and genocide, permit religious freedom, respect knowledge, and allow for individual expression.  As to “proper human conduct” and “an equitable economic system”, the Muslim interpretation or understanding of these concepts, is so foreign to that of democratic and civilized societies that there is little common ground for dialogue.
