Dear Nuray: You did not answer my of questions nor you replied A.A. Everything known about Mohammed and quran, comes from sources other than quran.Method of salat was asked and you quoted ayas about wudu that too is not complete.Every one knows that Haj is mentioned in quran, but ccomplete procedure comes from sources other than quran.

Yes I was born as a muslim and am over 65 years of age. I know islam as much, if not a lot more than most muslims. I left islam after reading quran with an open mind and saw the , violence,absurdities, repetitions, abrogations, silly fables,self serving ayas , personal instructions to Mohammed , allowing of sex with captured women, patronizing of slavery and allowing sex with slave girls,and complete contradictions between Mecca and Madina suras.

Islam keeps muslims in fold by the power of fear. I know many who have quietly left islam but keep quite because of fear of persecution. Islam is the only religion which calls for death for leaving it. That is the clear proof that it is a false religion .

Yes people after earthquake pray more because the imams scare the wits out of them every day saying that earthquake came because Allah was angry with them. Dont you know religious heirarchy runs the show by fear tactics and will do anything to keep their gravy train running.It is the oldest trick in the world. As famous muslim scientist Al Razi said all prophets are fake billy goats who claim to get messages from God and control masses by it.

They love blindfaithers like you who support them morally and financially.
