Yes.  The Koran is based off of several sources including but not limited to Jewish scripture, Jewish Apocryphal literature, Arabic legends and myths, gnostic literature, Christian apocryphal lit., and Syrian Nestorianism (a form of Christianity that is heretical) (particularly a Syrian Catechism).\n\nBelow are some historians who have tracked the sources of the Koran and give a history to the development of ideas that are contained within.  There are more sources and more current ones than the below.  These are just for starters.\n\nTHE ORIGINAL SOURCES OF THE QUR'AN\nCLAIR TISDALL\nhttp://tinyurl.com/lpjru\n\nThe great English Historian Hilaire Belloc\nhttp://tinyurl.com/janch

It all boils down to one thing, and one thing only.  Muhammed, when he was inventing allah and islam, took and corrupted (intentionally or not) a lot of factoids from Judaism and Christianity.  His ONLY defense against his inadequate knowledge of science, astronomy, anatomy, physiology, history, religion (esp Judaism and Christianity), and many OTHER fields of thought was to declare EVERYTHING ELSE as wrong or corrupted.  (nice try, Mo)  \n\nIslam "claims" to be correct and complete, yet denies the divine nature of Jesus.  Islam is at a loss for anything spiritual (resorting instead to lavish physical pleasures and rewards for following allah/Muhammed).  There are so many blatant errors in the koran that it's not worth listing.\n\nChristianity (rightfully) views islam and allah as a false god.

ok ok the bible as it is now has been arround since at least for 1500 years. But after jesus resurections the diciples use to spread the word by mouth then they wrote the famous letters included in new testaments. The famous dead sea scroll that they found some years ago (1947) came to confirm that the current bible is 100 percent correct.\n\nNow you have the muslims and their incorrect interpretations about bible and jesus, these are their lies to make jesus not the absolut god. \n\nmuslims cant tell about bible, they barerly can tell about quran, where 70% of them dont know what in it.

Give us examples of your claims if you can particularly for the Hinduism and Zoroastrianism. The Quran is a Book without a match in human history as its accuracy is down to the level of letters. After 1400 hundred years its challenge to all humans to bring a chapter similar to it is unmet and every day a new evidences of its miraculous nature is discovered.\nSee the following site for more info:\nhttp://www.islamreligion.com

To MC Hammer,\n\nIf it is really true that Islam was advancing science during that era, the present advancement that we see with science and technology at present, should have its mark as to have started in that region. Why is it then that most muslim that I've met seemed to have retarded knowledge about science? Well, except maybe for those who really had gone into higher education. And I know some of them too. My Muslim brother in-law is one of them. What really delayed or obtunded the Islamic world to significantly progress in this field. \n\nJust asking?

well, sis i havent noticed what you have noticed. but yes quran has many miracles.\n\ni have noticed one thing, if you read the chapter 2 uptil verse 24,, Allah has tell us all about himself, hereafter, messengers, salaah, charity, and in verse 24, Allah gives challenge to humankind to produce a chapter like thereunto. \n\nAnd if ye are in doubt as to what We have revealed from time to time to Our servant, then produce a Surah like thereunto; and call your witnesses or helpers (if there are any) besides Allah if your (doubts) are true. But if ye cannot – and of a surety ye cannot – then fear the Fire whose fuel is Men and Stones – which is prepared for those who reject faith".\n[Al-Qur’an 2:23-24]\n\none thing i have noticed is that the first chapter of Quran also tell us our purpose of life. i.e. to remain on straight path. \n\nThere are many mathematical miracles of Quran in this site.. e.g. quran mentions the land and sea , 13:32 times respectively, and guess what , 13:32 is land to sea ratio of earth.. There are plenty of them.. see this site......www.islamnoon.com\n\ntake care. \nSalam alikum\n\n\n================\n\nTO WILL ... \n\n====\n\nBROTHER, THE CHRONOLOGY OF QURAN WAS CONFIRMED BY PROPHET MUHAMMAD PBUH HIMSELF. AS COMMANDED BY ALLAH SWT. ....NOT UTHMAN.\n\n=========\n\nTO tattie_herbert\n\n=========\n\nQURAN HAS MAINTAINED ITS PURITY SINCE 1400 YEARS ,, IT HAS NOT BEEN CHANGED . IT CANNOT BE CHANGE BECAUSE ITS IN ARABIC AND ARABIC IS LIVING LANGUAGE, FURTHERMORE,,, QURAN HAS BEN MEMORIZED BY 9 MILLION PEOPLE TODAY IN THE WHOLE WORLD.... ITS NOT POSSIBLE TO MAKE A SINGLE CHANGE IN QURAN ..\n\nQuran(15:9). We have, without doubt, sent down the Message; and We will assuredly guard it (from corruption)\n\n\n==============================

I am Muslim... and Will remain muslim Because the rules provided by our Holy Book, The Glorious Quran, are PERFECT in every sense logically, scientifically.. No Human Being can find a single wrong verse in the Quran... and also Quran is one of the book that still cant be written by any human being..

yes, the last one too\n\n\n"[38] And indeed We sent Messengers before you (O Muhammad (peace be upon him)) and made for them wives and offspring. And it was not for a Messenger to bring a sign except by Allâh's Leave. (For) every matter there is a Decree (from Allâh). [39] Allâh blots out what He wills and confirms (what He wills). And with Him is the Mother of the Book "\n\nThe Holy Qur'an

You're not a bad person.  Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, though that doesn't necessarily mean there is no right or wrong.  As far as the question goes, science cannot prove religion wrong a majority of the time, because science can prove something observable, recordable and repeatable, often things which religion is not.  Also, science is meant to prove the natural, not the supernatural where religion has been known to find it's base.  However, if there are parts of a religion that state something in science as always true, and it has been proven by science that it is NOT the case, then very likely the view is wrong, or at least at that one point.  However, science does often correspond to things in certain religions and is known to be true at such points.  A religion can prove that it is correct, though, depending on it's logic, recognition of human fallibility, and correspondence with things that have been observed to be true.  For example, the Bible, when it's original copies were first discovered, had a list of the ten kings of either Persia or Babylon (i'm not exactly sure which) including their names and when and where they reigned.  This list was already previously known from another manuscript and everything checked out exactly.  For it's worth, they also found three other ancient texts containing the same list, none of which were very legible.  One had only two names clear and half the dates were wrong, another had one name readable and a majority of the dates were incorrect as well as the locations, and in the third all the dates and locations were inaccurate and the only way to know any of the names was to know what the list was about.  Things like that can add to or take away from the credibility of a religion.  So before throwing out a religion entirely, take the 5 best books written for that religion, look at their best arguments, see if they make sense and if you can prove them wrong logically, and then make your decision based on that.

A Muslim should not believe in astrology and things associated with it such as fortune telling etc as it is nothing but LIES \n\nThe Islamic belief is that Allah is supreme and ONLY he has knowledge of the future, which is very logical to believe.\n\nThe argument here is that if Allah claims ONLY he has knowledge of the future believing in something or someone other than him to have powers equal to Allah is shirk (equaling partners to him) so it is a GREAT sin.\n\nStay away from astrology if you are a Muslim. If you are to comeback and ask me sometimes what the sleuth Sayers say are true ?\n\nThere is a hadith in which prophet says that they will give you stories which they intercept from Satan but for one truth Satan will add a million lies. So practically all are lies and its a sin to believe anything other than Allah has powers of future

:}\nThat Islam would choose to rely on such dribble while decrying the accuracy of the bible is telling of the veracity too Be found in the rest of Islam

When Almighty Allah Does Not Know> \n\nBy Imran Hossain \n\n  \n\n  \n\n[This write-up might be sensitive for mainstream Muslims. If you are one of them, please be advised to read it at your own risk.] \n\n  \n\nWhen I was 16 about 6 years ago, I started thinking of Allah’s book “Koran” and some sciences.  I am from a Muslim family that’s how I know Islam. In addition, I am one of the luckiest people from the Muslim society who had read Koran by knowing its words in English. Except Arabs, 99 % Muslims do not even know the proper Islam and Koran. If you are a Muslim, you are already brainwashed in the childhood by the Islamists that Allah is almighty or super powerful in all circumstances, so it is a very simple thing to understand that He knows everything of us, the Universe and so on. Otherwise, it would be funny to imagine something is God.\n\n \n\nGod or Allah has to be the only one for all human beings, no discrimination is applicable here. But, based on the information from Holy Koran, I can produce here some logical issues. When I read Holy Koran, I compare its verses with some logics. I do not find the answers of my questions after reading Koran. Let me write just a few general phenomena which Allah should know and inform us because He is almighty. However, I am not going to write why there are no Newton ’s laws, Einstein’s theory, etc in Holy Koran. These would not fit my claims.  But, after reading Holy Koran I find super powerful Allah does not know lots of things what we need today that’s why there are still some FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) left. \n\n  \n\n  \n\n1)      Earth Is Spherical (Round): There is no doubt to almost everybody that we could know the earth is round in favour of the laws of science; however, almighty Allah’s vision proves the Earth is flat. This is why still only some illiterate Mullahs do not trust the Earth is oval. Allah is all-powerful and He created us and the Universe, therefore, why doesn’t he know the earth is spherical? Can anyone produce in debate any verses from Holy Koran where He explained the acceptable information on earth?\n\n  \n\n2)      The Time Difference: Every region on Earth does not have the same time. When it is 6 pm and Monday in Bangladesh , it is 4 am and Sunday in BC, Canada . If you pray Johar Namaz in Bangladesh and take a flight to Saudi Arab, you get the time again for Johar Namaz. So, would you start praying again Johar Namaz?  Allah is almighty, why doesn’t He mention in Holy Koran the time distinction and how people would pray in that case above? Or He does not know it! So far I know that the Keamot (Doom Day) will start on Friday in the evening. Yet, when it is evening in Bangladesh , it is morning in Americas , so, where will this doom commence? \n\n  \n\n3)       Movement of the Earth: The Earth is always moving. It revolves around the Sun every 365 days at a speed of about 30 km/sec. Moreover, the Earth also has an axis, and it rotates on its axis every 24 hours at a speed of about 1670 km/hr.  But, almighty Allah is not familiar with it. On top of it He explained some wrong phenomenon in Holy Koran that Earth is motionless.  \n\n  \n\n4)      People Other Than Arabians: Surprisingly almighty Allah did not reveal even a word that people could be living in Australia , Greenland , North and South America and many other areas. He does not even know what those people are like. He was absolutely failed to send any information about Eskimos, Red-Indians (Native American Indian), Pacific-Islanders, Latin Americans, and many more. Are there any verses in Koran where I get to know about them?\n\n  \n\n5)      The Pole Regions: It is so amazing when super powerful Allah does not know North and South Pole. These areas are so cold. However, some people like Eskimos live there. It is possible to find six-month daylight hours and six-month hours of darkness a year in the poles. Almighty Allah did not give any clue how people like Eskimos wo
