It includes a 10-page, double-column, closely printed INDEX of THE PRINCIPAL MATTERS CONTAINED IN THE KORAN AND THE NOTES THEREON', all subject headings, long narrative pars - e.g. : Wife ought to be used justly, 68; may be chastised, 25; the number of wives allowed by the Koran, 53; their duty to their husbands, 24. See Adultery, Divorce, and Marriage Al Zakkum, what, 101, n. If you've never read the Koran, imagine a series of sermons (revelations) pieced together. There are several faith stories from the Hebrew and Christian Bible referenced but with a slightly different twist in the retelling and application or reminder where they were wrong. I wanted my first reading to be just face value without the corruption/influence of any commentary besides a few books I've read on the history of the Koran and Mohammed. On the whole I thought it sounded like somebody with a borderline personality or your favorit old-tyme, hellfire and brimstone preacher. On the one side are eloquent sayings about the wonder, power, and majesty of God. Then it turns to descriptions of the unbeliever's innards boiled lovingly by God on the day of judgment.
