Dear Mr. Ibrahim:
Salam alaikum.
Being a well educated Muslim, you must not confuse with my Comments about my approach to Holy Quran.
From my personal experience, I have written in the previous posting. In every Muslim country & Society, you will find many Muslim Maulanas, Maulavis & Mullahs, who have little Knowledge of Holy Quran. They can read & recite many verses from Holy Quran but most of them are not well aware of the very Meaning & purpose of Holy Quran, some times this kind of people gives Wrong Interpretation of Holy Quran. This way they mislead many Muslims, who are not aware of the Messages in Holy Quran.
So I am very much against such Quacks / Mullahs in every Muslim Society. In view of such situation in Muslim Society, I said the Holy Quran is for the well educated Muslims like Scientists, Physicists, Physicians, Engineers, Economists & other Professionals, who have wider Knowledge & Understanding of the World & Holy Quran. In fact, well educated Muslim Professionals are Better Muslims than the Mullahs, Imams or Saudi Grand Muftis.
The Muslims, who teach Terrorism, Suicide Bombs or other Criminal activities, are not good persons & good Muslims too. We the Real Muslims are for Human Rights, Peace & Progress in the World, not any kind of Wars in any parts of the World.
Allah has made Holy Quran very Simple & Easy for those people, who are Honest & practice Good Deeds, work & Businesses. Holy Quran is Easy & again very, very difficult to understand and apply in their own life. Allah always guides & helps those, who have Faith, Absolute Faith in One God- Allah Only. Allah will NEVER, EVER guides & helps the Disbelievers. The Disbelievers will NEVER believe Holy Quran & Islam, the Last Religion from God- Allah to the Entire Humanity. The people, who believe in One God- Allah, are called Muslims in Arabic.
Islam does not force any person to be Muslims. It is upto his Freedom & Choice to accept Islam or reject Islam. Final Word: " Your Religion is for you, my Religion is for me."
I hope I have clarified my views to you about the True Message & Teaching of Holy Quran.
Ameen, Summah Ameen.
