Well. Ibrahim. I too tried reading translation of the K by the "Prime Minister" of Hyderabadi Nizam (I mean, translation of K by a blood red royal M). It is very confusing with many contradictory statements. I was even taken aback that God approves of slavery, slave trade etc., in the chapter on Spoils where during war Moslems can enslave non-moslems and even sell the saleable amongst them in slave markets for procuring more horses, swords etc., and also retain nubile ones for one's own enjoyment. It talks of the earth being flat and the sun everyday taking a dip in a muddy spring when it sets and wakes up the following day refreshed. It is not your mistake that you hold things which we all know as untruth as truth and very dear to your heart. In your opinion the rest of the world (I mean, the non-moslem one) might be equally "ignorant". Let it be so. Let us wallow in our own respective "ignorances". Is it going to make any difference to the way we have sunrise, sunset, moonrise, moonset, rain, shine, cold and wind?
