RanSacked came up with a novel idea too.

People who do not understand the nature of mohammedanism are easily naive and gullible about it.
Find it online in a non-muslim site and read it there instead.
Thank you Chajin.
Kill them all and let allah sort them out.
Like other religions, Islam has multiple books that are to be considered as “holy books” from which their doctrines are drawn from. The Koran is basis for only about 14% of Islam’s teachings. It is a deceptive for anyone to claim something is not Islamic because it is not in the Koran.
The Sunna is comprised of 2 other books, the “Hadith”, which is snippets of Mohammed’s life and and the “Sira”, the biography of his life. The Hadith is the basis for over 1/2 of Islam’s teachings/doctrine. It is as if Muhammed’s life is to be considered an extention of the Koran.
I just finished reading the Sira, Mohammed’s biography, it is very enlightening and an easy read. Now I am working on the Hadith. I downloaded both to my Kindle from Amazon.
It is relatively inexpensive to get self-educated on Islam. Between Google and the available books, within a short time a person will be knowledgeable about Islam.
I would recommend the 2 books I downloaded, by author Bill Warner... “The Life of Mohammed (A Taste of Islam)” and “The Hadith (A Taste of Islam).”
Many Islam related books on Amazon are written by women who have left Islam. Check out the books by Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Brigitte Gabriel, and Wafa Sultan.
Sorry for length of post but it is very important to get self-educated because we are being fed so many lies from every quarter. Islamic culture and religion is nothing like Judeo_Christian cultures.
Islam is a religion that needs the conquest of non-Islamic countries to survive. It started out as a warrior culture that grew wealthy by the wealth and “skills” of the people it conquered.
In a certain sense, you are right: no president, and even anyone else, really needs to know one sentence of the Quran. Nothing beneficial can be withdrawn from that book! However, if our enemies believe the teachings of the Quran and will obey them, we need to be prepared to respond adequately. Not trying to know what our enemies really believe (from the Quran and Islam), and what evil they may attempt to do against us, is quite irresponsible, especially for a wise president! We need to have a president who understands well our enemies and who is fully ready to fight back. When I say that our president must understand well our enemies, I do not mean that he must agree with them or call them our friends, but rather that he must know where they come from (they have been poisoned by the Quranic teachings), and what they may do against us (attack us because they classify us as infidels).
The Founding Fathers already weighed in on Islam.
Knowing the Quran (Koran) is merely one facet of understanding the bloody, barbaric history of Islam—all of which emanates from the Quran, the life of Muhammad (Mohammed), and the “glory days” of the medieval Arab caliphate(s)and later Ottoman Empire. One cannot fully grasp the scope of the Muslim (Moslem) threat to Western civilization without some significant familiarity with this history. Ted Cruz tends to be more knowledgeable, disciplined, articulate, and generally cerebral than Donald Trump (who is more a man of action), although Cruz also has a noteworthy history of repeatedly challenging the Republican Establishment in congress. In contrast, Trump is (in many respects, not all) the Andrew Jackson of our time—a berserker who flings himself like a whirlwind into the thick of battle, bewildering and scattering his enemies, and (like Jackson) arousing the ire of political “moderates” who view him as too unsophisticated, crude, boorish, and even dangerous to be taken seriously as a presidential candidate. It is instructive to notes that such moderates engineered the victory of one of their own (John Quincy Adams) in the election of 1824, even though Jackson had won more popular and electoral votes than Adams; let’s hope something similar doesn’t happen to Trump or Cruz. A blend of Trump and Cruz would make the ideal conservative candidate, and I hope they can continue to support each other, regardless of which one eventually wins the nomination.
Life’s too short to spend a minute reading that trash called the Koran.
Nice try NOOB!

The only thing a US president needs to know about the koran is that it is diametrically opposed to the constitution and therefore it is his solemn duty to banish it and the people that follow it.
As for the first amendment and the freedom of “exercise of religion”, I don’t believe for a microsecond that the founders had in mind islam when they wrote it.
In light of the spread of islam, that clause in the first amendment needs to be revisited, either to define what is meant by religion or to specify that religions incompatible with the constitution are not allowed.
It is intellectually dishonest, illogical or at best sloppy to establish a fundamental law of the country (the constitution) and then allow the EXERCISE of a belief system that is anathema to that constitution, whose stated goal is to destroy the constitution.
It is a logical impossibility for believers of those two systems to peacefully coexist together.
I haven’t studied it as extensively as you it seems but that’s what I’m getting.
Islam is a problem for everyone that is not Muslim.
I was stunned and horrified the more and more I read. ISIS is truly getting their ways right out of their holy books. The Koran is a hard read and is not in chronological order, it is written based upon the length of chapters(weird).
The Sira is quite easy, as most biographies are, and it could easily be the script ISIS is following. Most Muslims have been born into their religion. But like all religions some people will not feel comfortable following all of its dictates. That is one of the reasons why there are moderate Muslims, they abhor some of the practices that are allowed by Muslims against not Muslims.
Since Islam is a religion that came out of Arabia, it was forced upon the cultures it conquered(i.e India, Irag, Iran,etc), thus it is not as embraced by the general population in some countries as it is in others. Pakistani Muslims are still influenced somewhat by being part of the British empire when Pakistan was still part of India.
Perhaps in the future this will be said of the European countries that have foolished invited it in.
Thank you. I’ll bookmark this and check it out.
You as well as others have suggested it would be a good idea.
Those of you who suggested I do this earlier, thanks to you as well.
I understand where you are coming from and I appreciate the follow-up.
Agreed...
I should hope that the President of the United States is a well-read thoughtful educated man (as were our founding fathers). But I hope in vain.
I read up on the capture of Medina by Mohammed since last we spoke. Was somewhat familiar with it beforehand. Went over it in more detail.
The parallels to the modern conflict are quite stark. I don’t see how anyone could say that not knowing the history is a good thing.
They’re running the same battle plan.
