DIFFERENT INTERPRETATION OF THE HOLY QURAN

Submitted by Mohamad Nozzi (Singapore), May 1, 2009 at 18:22

The way we, moderate muslims, interpret the Holy Quran is entirely different from those, muslim extremists. Certainly we would like muslim extremists to interpret the Holy Quan in a right way so that they would not abuse the Holy Quran for holy war.

This cerainly occurs the same to other religions that have different kinds of divisions and yet they use the sources to guide the path of their people.

Buddhism was founded in Northern India by Siddhartha Gautama and yet there are different divisions in the practice of Buddhisms and there are Theravada Buddhism, Mahayana Buddhism, Vajrayana Buddhism, Tibetan Buddhism and Zen Buddhism and etc.

Jews, Christians and Catholics use the Old Testament scripts to guide the teaching of God and yet there are many divisions in their own religions and there ae Orthodox Judaism, Liberal Judaism, reform Judaism, Protestan, Presbysterian, Methodist, Catholics and etc.
