If you wish to engage in the self study of Islam (because you do not trust the word of any Muslim), then begin with learning to read the Quran in the language it was revealed in and its true meaning. Also learn Islamic history.  Anybody can opine on Islam by reading the translation. Doesn't make their opinion valuable or credible. Its just their opinion. Sort of like my picking up a Bible and casting my own opinions on the scripture. I would be better off to study the language the Bible was revealed in and read original scriptures. If I can not do that, I turn next to priests or biblical scholars. I do not refuse assuming all Christians are liars. I find a priest or biblical scholar who seems trustworthy and ask him to help me understand Christianity. [/quote]
Most Muslims don't read or speak the Quranic Arabic.

You are under the impression that unless someone agrees with your message completely, they must not have studied enough.  How arrogant.

You can never learn the truth about Islam if you embark on a self study but refuse to learn the language the Quran was revealed in, simply because you can't even trust a Muslim. If you seek knowledge but begin your investigation with that level of hatred and mistrust, you will end up in the same place you began, still full of hate and mistrust and never learning anything new.

You do not seem to be on a truth seeking journey. You are plagued by personal experiences, perhaps negative experiences. But the mistake you make is confusing Islam with practice. The way Islam is practiced in some countries is not real Islam. It is not the Islam Prophet Muhammad preached. The condition and treatment of women deteriorated after the Prophet died and these countries have returned back to ignorant thinking with oppressive rules, similar to pre islamic times.[/quote]

Most Muslims don't speak, read or understand the Quranic Arabic. Go pick on them.

Again, you seem to be under the impression that if someone doesn't agree with you, it's because they haven't studied enough.  You are simply discounting the possibility that someone could have read, explored and studied all they wanted, and arrived at the conclusions that they did. You are assuming that every opinion different from yours is unlearned. Very arrogant.[/quote]
