The Complete Infidel's Guide to the Koran

De: Robert Spencer

Narrado por: Lloyd James

The Koran: It may be the most controversial book in the world. Some see it as a paean to peace, others call it a violent mandate for worldwide Islamic supremacy. How can one book lead to such dramatically different conclusions? New York Times best-selling author Robert Spencer reveals the truth in The Complete Infidel's Guide to the Koran: not many Westerners know what's in the Koran because few have actually read it---even among the legions of politicians, diplomats, analysts, and editorial writers who vehemently insist that the Koran preaches tolerance. Now Spencer unveils the mysteries lying behind this powerful book, guiding listeners through the controversies surrounding the Koran's origins and its most contentious passages. Stripping out the obsolete debates, Spencer focuses on the Koran's decrees toward Jews, Christians, and other infidels, explaining how they were viewed in Muhammad's time, what they've supposedly done wrong, and, most important, what the Koran has in store for them.©2009 Robert Spencer (P)2009 Tantor

eye opening and concerning.

shocking info that affirms my suspicion. I wish it weren't true because their art and architecture is so interesting to me.

Very informative

Extremely thorough and informative. Everyone no matter politics should listen and learn the dangers we face.

Educational

I understand the difference and similarities with other religions Eye opener. I’ll be better prepared for the future.

Great analysis

I have read the Koran and did get much from this analysis. It is an insightful and easy to understand interpretation of what I read in the Koran. Since I have read a few different translations I wanted to see what is said about the different versions. I am not surprised to find out that what I read is what it says regardless of translation and the only reason it cannot be agreed on attributed to translation is not in fact a language problem but a deception problem.

Shocking violence of this he Koran

I think this is a must trade for all our leaders of all nations. And what's good for Christians and Jews? Should also be the same for Muslims

Is "complete" acurate?

Perspective felt so one-sided that its hard to judge how truely factual/balanced it is.

The student was ready

After Paris and San Bernardino I was ready to learn about Islam. Since then I've read or listened to at least 4 of Robert Spencer's books as well as one by Islamic apologist, John Esposito. Spencer's knowledge of Islam, the Koran, Sharia law is encyclopedic & he's also pretty funny.

Ignorance and wishing something to be real

The desire to ignore a threat. The wish for something to be real when it's not. The believe the hiding your head in the ground and pushing the ideas we want to believe is dangerous and threatens our security. If you have a child that could possibly be involved in drugs your constant repeating that it is impossible for that to be so and that he is a good boy would not make it real. Our politicians both Bush and Obama are enabling the ultimate threat to our security and peace.

Great book!

A very in depth look at the teaching of the Koran and Shariah law. Great for people new to the precepts of Islam and veterans alike.

A MUST READ for all non Muslims - esp. gvmt. !

I found this book when I went searching to answer questions I had in my mind. I wanted to understand what the truth was concerning Muslims and Islam. What I saw happening in the world and what we were being told by news outlets, and the government didn't add up. all the questions I had, were answered by the Koran itself. Don't let anyone tell you the truth on this, let the Qur'an tell you the truth on this. Don't repeat soundbites you've heard because they sound good and make you feel more comfortable or tolerant. Be willing to understand the truth for yourself.
