[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do we really think that changing a few diacritical marks, even with the blessing of a committee of scholars of Islam and 7th century Arabic, will result in extensive or progressive changes to Quranic rules on inheritance, apostasy, punishment ?[/quote] NO I do not think there ail be "extensive" changes. I think the interpretation will change because additional commentary will be provided from original texts to explain rules better. [/quote] Do you think that people who provided previous commentaries did not see the original texts? Basically, what is the basis for your expectation that the review of ORIGINAL texts will yield something different from what already exists? You may not like what people wrote in the 8th century, but you can't deny they were closer to the source than you ever will be.[/quote]
