In 1087, William the Conqueror's corpse exploded at his own funeral. The monarchy survived. This should not have been possible. But over the next thousand years, the English crown would pass through the hands of kings who spoke no English, rulers who couldn't attend their own weddings, and at least one monarch whose final wish was to have his skeleton lead armies into Scotland. There would be deaths by lamprey, murders filed under "probably fine," and a king who talked continuously for fifty-eight hours during a mental breakdown.

Some people can name the day everything changed. For others, there is no day. There's just… the way it was. The household where love came with conditions. The parent who couldn't quite see you.

The history of the Prophet Mohammad, the development of Islam, implementation of Shariah Law, and views of Quranic interpretations are all presented along with three separate classical translations of the Holy Quran. Put simply, The Quran (Koran) is viewed as an unfolding revelation. Thus, the last statement in the Quran regarding a subject supersedes any statement that came before it. This is called ABROGATION. Thus, we list verses in chronological order and examine the list for the last verses written on a subject to see what instructions are to be followed by Islam today.

Islam is a socio-political system founded on a religion. Its laws are a set of irrevocable and unchanging religious commands written in the 7th century in a book called the Quran (Koran) by a man named Mohammed (Muhammad). Not all chapters in the Quran are valid because, even though the Quran is not written in chronological order, only the author’s last word on any subject stands. These facts and many more tend to obscure the true meaning and intent of Islam. Who was Mohammed? What did he teach? Was he a prophet or a warlord? Did Mohammed actually marry a six-year-old girl?
