It is if you follow the later interpretations of the Muslim community. The word 'Quran' means 'recitation'. It is not a Testament to the things that Muhammad did or said; it is in its foundation, the Word of God, and nothing else. The later teachings in the Islamic traditions perverted the true message of God.
ARGUMENT;Some today seek discount the importance of the influence of the Koran upon the lives of moslems,
and would argue that the Koran and its contents are an anachronism, ....and that Koran verses do not reflect or guide, the intent of the moslem community, here in Australia, today,
.....I would offer, that
the Koran is,
and always has been, ~the~ most important source of religious authority for ISLAMIC religious leaders, and ~the~ most important source of religious instruction, for every moslem.
Any person who would suggest other than that, is either ignorant, OR, is being deliberately deceitful.

"The complete teachings in the Islamic traditions are an abomination to the God inspired human psyche, and, the complete teachings in the Islamic traditions are the true message of ALLAH.".....aka SATAN
Are you saying that God is Satan?
I'm saying that Allah, is NOT, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
e.g.
On keeping oaths, on keeping your word, on honouring a
verbal undertaking we make....
ALLAH;
"Allah indeed has sanctioned for you the expiation of your oaths and Allah is your Protector, and He is the Knowing the Wise."
Koran 66:2
"The Prophet said, "If I take an oath and later find something else better than that, then I do what is better and expiate my oath."."

Coz, Mohammed was a covenant breaker, and a liar,
just like Mohammed's god
.
"expiate my oath", means an obligation to Allah of penance [Kaffara], e.g. fasting for three days, or to clothe or feed poor people.
Allah and Mohammed above.+++
From the Jewish O.T. Bible;
Numbers 30:2
If a man vow a vow unto the LORD, or swear an oath to bind his soul with a bond; he shall not break his word, he shall do according to all that proceedeth out of his mouth.

I have read the O.T & N.T. Bible [KJV] through cover to cover, and i have read much of the Koran.
IMO, it is comparing chalk and cheese.
And imo, the Koran is the chalk.And believe me the Koran [by comparison], is mostly a lot of boastful, unstructured, largely violent,
gibberish!
If you don't believe me [about the gibberish claim], i encourage anyone, to read the Koran for yourself !
There is no excuse, it is available online.
And the Koran starts out on its 1st page, so, so, promising....
http://quran.com/1/1After the opening verses the Koran just seems to settle into a constant uninspiring
PRATTLE.
e.g.
Quote:
This is the Book; in it is guidance sure, without doubt, to those who fear Allah;
Who believe in the Unseen, are steadfast in prayer, and spend out of what We have provided for them;
And who believe in the Revelation sent to thee, and sent before thy time, and (in their hearts) have the assurance of the Hereafter.
They are on (true) guidance, from their Lord, and it is these who will prosper.
As to those who reject Faith, it is the same to them whether thou warn them or do not warn them; they will not believe.
Allah hath set a seal on their hearts and on their hearing, and on their eyes is a veil; great is the penalty they (incur).
Of the people there are some who say: "We believe in Allah and the Last Day;" but they do not (really) believe.
Fain would they deceive Allah and those who believe, but they only deceive themselves, and realise (it) not!
In their hearts is a disease; and Allah has increased their disease: And grievous is the penalty they (incur), because they are false (to themselves).
When it is said to them: "Make not mischief on the earth," they say: "Why, we only Want to make peace!"
Of a surety, they are the ones who make mischief, but they realise (it) not.
When it is said to them: "Believe as the others believe:" They say: "Shall we believe as the fools believe?" Nay, of a surety they are the fools, but they do not know.
When they meet those who believe, they say: "We believe;" but when they are alone with their evil ones, they say: "We are really with you: We (were) only jesting."
That is
