I am now reading the Qur'an out of curiousity and because knowledge is power (especially on the debate circuit) and I am wondering if any Moslems out there (or at least persons familiar with the book) might be able to direct me to some important, inspiring, or provacative Surahs that I should read or pay close attention to.

I will appreciate your responses.

It is spelled muslim.

It is also spelt Moslem, although this spelling is seen less frequently these days.

Hello. Im muslim. Tell me what topics you're interested in most. I'll try to help.

You can start with Fatiha, Yasin, and last 20 pages of KORAN. Those are most recited among muslims. Yasin is believed to be "heart of Koran" as is mentioned in one of hadiths of prophet Muhammad(S.A.W).

Feel free to ask.

actually both spellings (moslem, and muslim) are correct. So is the diffrence between Qur'an and Koran, since the original language does not use the latin character set.

Thank you.

Have you been to a christain church?

If so then you can help me with my next question.

Yes I've been to 2-3 christian churches. These were really old churches, and I visited out of curiosity. But I dont understand why you are asking. I never was a christian, but I know enough (I think) about christianity. What will be your next question? ))

I am also a Muslim (Moslem is considered offensive by some)and a former Catholic. The brother has mentioned the Surah's that you should read, a very well versed idea of Islam. If you have questions.. shoot.

What is the difference between services and how people treat each other? In american chirstain churches its a place to go worship, but the local mosque its a community where members can go if they are in need.

Is this true where you live?
