Présentation de l'éditeur

THE EARLY DEVELOPMENT OF MOHAMMEDANISM LECTURE I the koran as the basis of islam It is a noteworthy fact about the Mohammedan system that since the Migration it has demanded no qualifications for admission to its brotherhood.

The Koran may not be sold to Unbelievers ; soldiers are advised not to take it with them into hostile territory for fear the Unbeliever should get hold of it; and many a copy bears upon it a warning to Unbelievers not to touch. Pious grammarians have refused to teach grammar to Jews or Christians, because the rules were apt to be illustrated by quotations from the sacred volume. The Unbeliever is by one of the codes 1 forbidden to enter a mosque; and even when 1 Malik. See Baidawi i. 10, 12. 1 1
