Again,

Islam is a very beautiful religion.

You have referenced a work that is totally untrue about Islam. Shame on you my friend. This work is skewed and does not represent Islam. This guy was biased to say the least.

Maxime Rodinson, a contemporary of Lammens, and a biographer of Muhammad, characterized Lammens as

"filled with a holy contempt for Islam, for its 'delusive glory', and 'lascivious' prophet." "A Critical Survey of Modern Studies of Muhammad" p26

A Library Journal reviewer wrote:

"...one who had 'a holy contempt for Islam.' Lammens himself refers to the Qur'an as an 'infinitely shabby journal.'Michael W. Ellis, Ellenville P.L., NY
