The Koran is a fascinating read, at first glance, it looks like a very Abrahamic text, with members of the Bible referenced in its pages. You could almost mistake the Koran as the Bible it is that similar. There are extreme parts that terrorist groups have harnessed, and it has given these groups reference points, but apart from one or two moments where it is advocating violence, it appears as a very peaceful text, reminiscent of a song or a long poem. The halal diet is very intriguing also, with high ranking doctors like Michael Mosley praising the period of Ramadan and fasting in general as ways ordinary people can seriously lose weight
