Qur’an 2:2-4

A Qur’an Like It.

Here’s the Sahih International translation:

2:2 This is the Book about which there is no doubt, a guidance for those conscious of Allah – 3 Who believe in the unseen, establish prayer, and spend out of what We have provided for them, 4 And who believe in what has been revealed to you, [O Muḥammad], and what was revealed before you, and of the Hereafter they are certain [in faith].

Koran 2:2-4

Here’s my improved version:

2:2 This is the book that Muhammad never read, which is doubted by all, as they never saw it, let alone read it for themselves.

3 This book is available for all, simply by asking (or clicking this link).

4 This book is in your language, speaks to you if you can’t read and is infinitely replaceable.

Qur’an 2:2-4

Note that I removed the reference to Muhammad, and removed the other problems. I’ve also made copying and translating irrelevant.

Note that I kept the conceit of the Qur’an being a book. It would be trivial for a real god to write a book into our genes and for those words to appear inside our minds when we needed guidance.

As I’ve produced a better verse than Muhammad, this shows Muhammad is Allah, Allah is Muhammad, the Koran comes from Muhammad (and friends), and Islam is false.
