I also slightly misspoke when I said "roughly 80%" as I didn't explicitly specify that I meant 80% of its chapters mention hell, fire, doom, or punishment in some way, not that 80% of the overall text is about that... although it is arguably the most dominant theme in the Qur'an next to monotheism.
Also when you say favorite, I'm guessing from the one you chose that you mean which verses in the quran are the most easy to ridicule as being unbelievable or for being politically incorrect.
Here's a few more good examples of how fucking sick Mohammad really was:
Quote:A beseecher besought the visitation of chastisement,
(a chastisement meant) for the unbelievers, one which none can avert;
a chastisement from Allah, the Lord of the ascending steps,
by which the angels and the Spirit ascend to Him in one Day the duration of which is fifty thousand years.
So, (O Prophet), persevere with gracious perseverance.
Verily they think that the chastisement is far off, while We think that it is near at hand.
It shall befall on a Day whereon the sky will become like molten brass,
and the mountains will become like dyed tufts of wool,
and no bosom friend will enquire about any of his bosom friends
although they shall be within sight of one another. The guilty one would fain ransom himself from the torment of that Day by offering his children,
and his spouse and his brother,
and his kinsfolk who had stood by him,
and all persons of the earth, if only he could thus save himself.
By no means! It will be the fierce flame
that will strip off the scalp.
70:1-16
Quote:The unbelievers say: “We shall never believe in this Qur'an, nor in any Scripture before it." If you could only see the wrong-doers arrayed before their Lord, each bandying charges against the other. Those who were suppressed will say to those who waxed arrogant: “Had it not been for you, we would have been believers.” The arrogant ones will retort to those who were suppressed: “What! Did we bar you from the guidance after it came to you? Not at all; rather you yourselves were evil-doers.” Those who were suppressed will say to those who waxed arrogant: “By no means; it was your scheming, night and day, when you would enjoin us to disbelieve in Allah and set up others as equals to Him.” When they are confronted with the chastisement, they will be remorseful in their hearts. We shall put fetters around the necks of the unbelievers. Can people be requited except for their deeds?
34:31-33
Quote:Did you not see those who dispute concerning Allah's Signs? Whence are they, then, being turned astray?
Those who gave the lie to this Book and all the Books which We had sent with Our Messengers shall soon come to know the Truth
when fetters and chains shall be on their necks, and they shall be dragged into
boiling water, and cast into the Fire.
40:70-72
Quote:Verily We created man out of a drop of intermingled sperm so that We might try him, and We therefore endowed him with hearing and sight.
Surely We showed him the Right Path, regardless of whether he chooses to be thankful or unthankful (to his Lord).
For the unbelievers, We have kept ready chains and fetters and a Blazing Fire.
76:2-4
