Also the books texts look very much like they were just made up by Muhammad, it's filled with local concerns. Some of the concerns in the quran are talking about an uncle who Muhammad didn't like definitely going to hell.
It's like if a man called George came to me and said "Right I've got a book straight from god addressing the entire world" Then I read a chapter and it says "Georges uncle who used to throw rocks at George is going right to hell, those rocks that he used to throw will be chained around his neck". And the book was written in Georges dialect using localized idioms I would assume it wasn't from god and the book was from George.
The quran does talk a lot about fighting but the verses I suppose can be interpreted as only being in defense, in actual circumstances of war I don't know how well these verses would hold up, if I did become a Muslim I also wonder which Muslim group do I begin fighting for? There's a lot of Muslims fighting and being fought out there, which ones do I begin to defend? What about the Muslim groups who are fighting each other?
There's nothing about an uncle going to hell of Prophet Muhammad peace and blessings be upon him and his family.
The verse about Abu Lahab.
May the hands of Abu Lahab be ruined, and ruined is he.
His wealth will not avail him or that which he gained.
He will [enter to] burn in a Fire of [blazing] flame
And his wife [as well] - the carrier of firewood.
Around her neck is a rope of [twisted] fiber.

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.
