Koran, the Islam scripture.

 Hello, everyone! Today, I will write about Islamic scriputure, Koran. If you have the idea of Koran., you can image the man reading Koran in front of the mosque. Koran is the most important rulebook for the Muslims. All of the rules to live in Islam world is written in it. So Muslims read that and keep the faith of god. I will introduce a lot of Koran for you.

1. What is Koran??

 The revelation from god  is written in Koran in arabic. Muslims believe that these revations are perfectly correct words from god. The god made an angel "Gabriel" to tell the his word to Muhhamd.
Those words were collected and became Koran. In study, those words were not changed. So, those are abosolutely correct words from god.
 Koran has the 114 chapters.  The contents are the order to obey the only god, the cautions of end of the world, courtesy of Islam, social life, the low of family, customs, political idea. But the descriptions of Koran are ordinary daily conversation and the term of bisiness. In addition, familliar morals and cautions are used in it many times. For these reasons,  Koran do not have the stories. In short words, it is not fantasic.
  Muhhamad propagadized words of god in terrible stuation. So he experienced the difficulty and sacrifice. Threfore, the god gave to him the way of dealing with the changing situation, giving tha cautions and yells everytime he had needed. But the god gave the different, non-consistent revalation in simillar situation. Dew to this, the revalation from the god sometimes had the contradiction.

2.The reason why Koran is read by many people so long time.

 First, Koran teach the way of obeying the god by the revalations which is ordinary and simillar on it and the way of concreat life style. The factor gathering the people who believe the religion is to reveal the way of concreat life style. It is not abstract or beautiful words.
 Second,it is an Arabic. Arabic is used to write Koran. The form of Koran is the prose which use the specific character of arabic verses. To read it with the voices in Arabic, people are able to feel the its own beauty of verses. It is said that the refrain on it makes people intoxicated. When Muslims worship for the god, Koran which is translated into other languages such as English or Japanese is forbbitted to use by them. The reason why is not only Arabic is choosen by god as hoy language but also to maintain the beauty of verses of arabic. If translating it, the beauty of verses will be lost. In Islam, it is not allowed the idoratry. When Muslims worship for the god, not to use the music or vocal music. But to read Koran with thier voices may only cause the beauty of verses in that situation.

3.Conclusion.

 For Japanese people, Koran is not famillar. Of cause, me too. Nawadays, I think that there are many people who have not read the "Okyou" in Buddism. It is said that Japanese people do not beleive the religion. But I want to read the Koran and know the revelation. To read the scripure of religion, it will help you to understand other religion.
