translation.en: Part of the problem, I think, is that we imagine that the Koran can be read as we usually read a book -- as though we can curl up with it on a rainy afternoon with a bowl of popcorn within reach, as though God -- and the Koran is entirely in the voice of God speaking to Muhammad -- were just another author on the bestseller list.
translation.zh: 部分原因，我认为， 是我们把可兰经想象成一本像 我们平时信手拈来就可以读的书 -- 仿佛我们可以在一个细雨蒙蒙的下午，蜷缩在椅子里悠闲品读， 手边还放着一碗爆米花， 仿佛上帝 -- 可兰经完整记录了上帝对穆哈默德的话语 -- 仅仅是另一本畅销书榜单上的作者。
