the one that has pig skin in the cover

One containing no pictures of living things, how dare pretentious artists draw pictures of people and animals? It's playing God, damn it!

Richard Burton's The Thousand Nights and a Night (1938). Download on Gutenberg, etc. The newer 3-volume Penguin selection is good, too.

Haddawy annotated

Every time I heard that a Palestinian terrorist, or a Palestinian child, or a pregnant Palestinian woman had been gunned down in the Gaza Strip, I felt a quiver of enthusiasm at the thought that it meant one less Muslim.

>>8632117
you are disgusting
this is the first time i say this to someone on the chan

>>8632165
i agree with him

one less muslim retard = one less potential threat for civilization

its not popular to be proisraeli on this site but i am, also

the quran and all the hadiths and its whole ideology is utter trash and mornoic also, irregardless of how islam is a threat to us

What is the best Muslim literature for a Westerner who hates homosexuals?

>>8632409
I prefer the Mardrus and Mathers translation because Burton shies away from the sensuality to make it more children's fiarytale

>>8632235
I welcome the death of all Muslims and those who will grow up to be Muslims.

Platform, after the jihadists kill his gf.

>>8632409
Why don't you read them in Arabic if you're a so called Muslim?

Not pious enough to be able to read the actual Quran?

Infidel tier.

Same here. Every time I hear about rockets get lobbied at Israel I just feel happy knowing Israel is about to unleash hell on the Palestinians

Truly you're the hero we need. The pro-muslim hordes of 4chan have finally been confronted

>>8632176
>proisraeli
This entire jihad shit started because of Israel.

You can be against both muslims and zionists. In fact, you should.

either way, your gonna be seeing a lot of spousal abuse in this one...

Step up your game newfriend.

It is expressly forbidden by the Qur'an to make images of beings with souls, as it is considered a form of idolatry.

Are you calling the Qur'an edgy you dirty kufr?

You must return to your study of the Sunnah!

Albeit a retelling, Naguib Mahfouz' Arabian Nights and Days is quite good.

If you're looking for a translation, the Burton one is my preference.

Very few Muslims actually understand classical Arabic. Do you think every Jew is fluent in Hebrew, too?

>>8633436
Sorry, I couldn't find a download for it. I have a Kindle by the way.

>>8633742
sure anon here is the epub...

>>8633742
>Very few Muslims actually understand classical Arabic.
They're bad Muslims then, including you.

I would focus on understanding what should be the most important book in your life rather than distracting yourself with decadent fairy tales filtered through a Western mind.

Submit.

>Why don't you read them in Arabic if you're a so called Muslim

Are you stupid? The original manuscripts were Persian, not Arabic, and most have been destroyed by Muslim expansion. Do you even read?

>>8633875
I don't read kuffar fairy tales.

>>8633875
The original texts don't exist anymore. Arab is as close to the sauce as you can get.

Seeing as OP is a Muslim and therefore should understand Arab, he should read those.

>>8633915
>Muslim and therefore should understand Arab
Quit being ignorant. Not every religious person speaks a foreign language. How many Christians do you know who can speak Aramaic? You don't even know what country I'm from.

>>8633763
That was a mortar strike, not a suicide bombing you dip

>>8633929
Not him you are supposed to read the Quran in Arabic if you want to be a proper Muslim

>>8633929
Christianity does not mandate reading scripture in the original language. Islam does.

It doesn't matter what country you are from.

>>8633959
>half-assed """"cultural"""" """"Muslim"""" knows less about his own religion than so called infidels

Shameful display.

>>8633973
Not OP, but you're making the Koran out to be a much bigger deal than it really is. Statistically most Muslims don't even own a copy.

>>8631462
>muslim
>actualy reads
something doesn't add up here

>>8634049
This is true about Arab countries like Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait, but then you have more civilized Muslim countries with proud literary traditions; such as Iran, Egypt, and Great Britain.

>>8634049
And statistically most Catholics fuck outside of wedlock and don't go to mass every Sunday.

That doesn't mean that therefore those things aren't a big deal in Catholicism. It just means that most of them are bad Catholics who don't take their religion seriously.

The Quran is an extremely big deal in the teachings of Islam. That most lazy """Muslims""" don't respect the beliefs they pretend to adhere to doesn't change that.

>>8631462
>So many different versions, though. What would you say is the definitive edition?
i dont know

>>8631462
that one that is not YA

>>8631462
>as a Muslim
fuck you

Burton is full of purple prose and nauseating racism. Get the Lyons.
