So why doesn't the Muslim religion modernize? Whats your theory? |
I'm not a Muslim, but I do have a couple weeks of Middle Eastern Studies under my belt.
Plus, I never post in this board, so I'll give it a shot:
It's my understanding that Muslims believe that the koran (quran?) represents the final word of god, as documented by Mohammad, the final prophet. They also believe that Christians, Jews, etc. have recieved the word as well, but didn't get it on paper fast enough, and thus the word was corrupted a little bit.
Perhaps they don't want to modernize because they feel it would be marring the word of god by changing the koran in any way.
