The Trilogy of Qur\u2019an, Sirah and Hadith. Allah is found in the Qur\u2019an and Mohammed is found in the Sirah (his biography) and the Hadith (his traditions of small stories and sayings). There is a special name for the sum of the Sirah and the Hadith, the Sunna. The most commonly belief about Islam: it is based upon the Qur\u2019an. It is not. Let\u2019s do a statistical analysis: How important is the Qur\u2019an? It contains about 153,000 words. The Sirah (by Ibn Ishaq) contains about 292,000 words, and the Hadith has 646,000 words (using the Bukhari text). So Allah is about 14% of the total of the Trilogy and the Sunnah (Mohammed's words and deeds) is 86% of the total. These are only a quantitative measure, but still, it points out how important Mohammed is compared to Allah, based upon the amount of text. This is born out further by noticing that the Qur\u2019an does not contain enough information to practice even one of the Five Pillars of Islam. Only the Sunnah (primarily the Hadith for religious practice) tells the Muslim how to worship. The above statistical measure shows that Islam primarily is based on the saying and deeds of Mohammad, sws. Once the Qur\u2019an is rearranged in the right time order \u2013 from Mecca to Medina etc - categorized and Prophet's life is woven back into it, another fact leaps from the page. Very little of the Qur\u2019an is devoted to how to be a Muslim, the religion of Islam. Instead, the majority of the Qur\u2019an is about kafirs, non-Muslims. Kafirs are the worst of the creation. Allah hates kafirs and plots against them. Kafirs can be tortured, murdered, robbed, and enslaved etc. The Qur\u2019an is fixated on kafirs. To measure the Qur\u2019anic fixation on kafirs, let us measure the fixation by counting the amount of text devoted to them. In Mecca an astounding 67% of the text is devoted to the kafir. In Medina 51% was about kafirs. The amount of text in the entire Qur\u2019an devoted to kafirs is 61%. As an aside, Islam excludes kafirs in every way from its religious practice. Since the kafir is outside of Islam, the term political Islam is used to describe the doctrine of Islam as it is applied to the \"others\", the kafirs. So 61% of the Qur\u2019an is about political Islam, not religious Islam. The Sirah shows the importance of Islam's political nature. The Prophet preached the religion of Islam for 13 years in Mecca and only gained 150 followers. He moved to Medina where he became a politician and warrior. After 10 years -an astoundingly short time - he became a virtual ruler of all Arabia without a single enemy left standing. He was involved in an armed struggle every 6 weeks for the last 9 years of his life. The Hadith of Bukhari gives all of the tactical details of jihad. A simple counting method shows that 3% of the hadiths are about the inner struggle, whereas, 97% of the hadiths are about jihad as war. So is jihad the inner struggle? Yes, 3%. Is jihad the war against kafirs?"}
