Koran


            How the Koran reflects Islamic beliefs.
             Many religions are in existence today. Major religions include Christianity, Buddhism, Judaism, Hinduism, and Islam. In Islam, Muslims have followed the Islamic tradition in pursuit of pleasing Allah. Many religions include a written word, such as the Bible for Christianity, to accompany them in their beliefs. In Islam, the Koran is one of the Muslims" sacred writings. The Koran explains certain aspects of the religion through the pursuit of the correct path, the power of God, and the betterment of the world. .
             Muslims try to please God by going on the correct path. In the opening portion of the Koran when it states, "Guide us on the straight path, the path of those whom Thou has blessed," one understands that Muslims pray to Allah that he would guide them on the path to heaven. They praise him for who he is and for everything that he has done. They believe that God is all-merciful and all-compassionate, as stated in the second line of the opening, and that God would help them as an aid to guide them on the right path. Therefore, Muslims have trust in God that he would help them throughout their life. .
             Muslims furthermore believe in the night of power, which was the night Mohammed received his final revelations. This is a special night when they believe that the angels and the Spirit descend from heaven. On this night, they believe that God's power is displayed and they believe that this night is "better than a thousand months" as stated on the third line in the second section of the Koran. Furthermore, they believe that on this day, there is peace until the rising of the dawn as stated in line six, "Peace it is, till the rising of dawn." Therefore, the night of power is significant to the Muslims as a day when the Spirit of God descends on the earth. .
             Lastly, Muslims believe in "taking refuge from the evil that God has created" as stated in the first line of the third section.
