You've got a strange idea of the relationship between magic book and islamic warlords. It very much reminds me of the progressive american lefts view that christians are unchristian - and that view is similarly supported by a misunderstanding of christianity within the western revisionist history of it's institution. So, pretty much same-sies.
Christianity is already messed up because the bible is already forged and is a very ugly mixture of Jesus's Hadith and the real word of God; remember that the Romans are responsible for that forgery that happened in The First Council of Necaea:

It's a very different case from the fresh Islam, that has very obvious separation between God's word (Quran) and human word (Hadith).
Your magic book was created in the very same way. If we're taking it seriously, ofc. If we're talking about your absurd beliefs about magic book as a precognitive travel brochure, disregard.
Thing is..I wasn't talking about christinity or magic book, there - I was noticing that you, like the progressive western left with christians, see modern muslims as somehow meaningfully un-muslim.
Magic book wasn't written by Big Mo either, Winter. Before there was a magic book, it very literally was hadith, and it was the production and collection of those hadith and their method of production and collection that led to the thing you now worship as an idol. Disagreement over that final product and the succession of kings lead to the sunni shia split which is so constructive to both your personal identity and the forever war in the region.
