Islam is a socio-political system founded on a religion. Its laws are a set of irrevocable and unchanging religious commands written in the 7th century in a book called the Quran (Koran) by a man named Mohammed (Muhammad). Not all chapters in the Quran are valid because, even though the Quran is not written in chronological order, only the author’s last word on any subject stands. These facts and many more tend to obscure the true meaning and intent of Islam. Who was Mohammed? What did he teach? Was he a prophet or a warlord? Did Mohammed actually marry a six-year-old girl?
