Question to muslims. Would you believe in Islam if you didn't believe the quran was miraculous?
I've noticed a few threads, websites and youtube videos and so on about the miracles within the quran, none of which are very clear to me as miracles.
But I also watched a documentary recently about Afghanistan or some other Islamic country where the army was all muslim but the british army had to teach them how to read and write.
The literacy rate of Muslim majority countries is quite low compared to western and European countries, especially among females.
I guess my point along with my original question is it's strange how a book of miraculous scientific discoveries and a book which promotes equal rights for women has been at the root of the majority religion for countries where education seems to be below that of western countries who had no quran, especially with regards to females, and if muslims believe the quran based on its scientific mathematical and supremely elegant writings how did they manage to arrive at that conclusion if they are not able to read the writings within it or have the education to realize what the miracle is?
Just some of the literacy rates among Islamic countries, some may have improved since these statistics were gathered I don't know.
Afganistan 28.1%
Chad 35%
Somalia 37.8%
Syria 80%
Tunisia 75%
Yeman 65 %
Mauritania 58%

Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
