Islam cannot be reformed. Islam is what it is. The Qur’an means ‘The Recitation’. Or ‘The Reading’. Muslims believe that the Qur’an was recited to the Prophet Muhammad by the Angel Gabriel, who was conveying Allah’s actual words. So, if Muslims believe that the Qur’an contains Allah’s actual words, it would be considered heresy to change even one syllable of Allah’s words. It would be a brave man who would try to change anything!
Pinning one’s hopes on a reformation in Islam is tantamount to whistling Dixie! Period! – © Mark Alexander
