According to the rules of this forum, I support my reply with evidence:
"And who is more unjust than he who fabricates against Allah a lie, or cries lies to the Truth as soon as it comes to him? Is there not in Hell a lodging for the disbelievers?" [29:68]
That is not evidence...it is a quote from a work of fiction.
Islam is a syncretism of christianity and judaism, it emerged as a reaction to the spread of christianity. If christianity had not been so successful in the early part of the first millennia CE, islam would not exist.
Allah (the arabic name for god), is like the god of the Jews and the god of christianity, a myth.
The concept of god, and concomitant religions, has clearly evolved along with human community.

Everything? No. More than I did yesterday, certainly

Are you sure 100% of your claims?
Have I claimed that?

What if there were many prophets and messengers in the past and the book of Allah which was sent to His messenger Muhammad is with us The true words of Allah?
All religion is an attempt to codify a personal spiritual experience. 'Prophets' and messangers are relating their experience of spirit.

Where will you be after less than 70 years?
Who are you now?

What is your soul?
My soul entails all thought, intellect, emotions, memories, hopes, dreams, aspirations, suffering, loves, joys, hates, sorrows, regrets, creativity, spite, knowledge, learning, understanding, empathy, sympathy, pity, greed, lust, desire, initiative, and instinct of each and every human. More so, of every organism that has mental faculty.

Who gives you life? Who takes this life?
My life (as it manifests) is not given or taken by anyone or anything other than this vessel

What do you know about yourself to think that you can know what happened in the past or will happen in the future?
I know much about my 'self'. My concern is not with the past or future, but with the eternal now.

Quran is the words of Allah, it tells us what happened in the past and the true stories of the messengers and prophets and what happened to them by the hands of their followers and Who is Jesus and where he is now and that his is not the son god but a slave, a miracle born without a father from his virgin mother Mariam a miracle from Allah and a messenger and a guide.
The Quran is a text attempting to communicate, amongst other things, a personal experience of spirit.

Quran gives us precious information in all fields of life. It gives us answers to unanswerable questions...

... and the orgin of the universe and scientific, astronomic, medical, physiological, psychological, spritual knowledge.
It tells us the purpose of your creation and what is after death.
It sets the rules, define the rights and duties of the individual and the community.
It left nothing but gives us its key.
Quran is like air and water and sun, without it our life is dark, evil, injustice as it was before Muhammad my love.
I do not doubt your love for the Beloved. I do not doubt your belief, i do not doubt that your belief brings meaning, purpose and legiticmacy to your existence.
This is love: to fly toward a secret sky,
to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment.
First, to let go of live.
In the end, to take a step without feet;
to regard this world as invisible,
and to disregard what appears to be the self.
Heart, I said, what a gift it has been
to enter this circle of lovers,
to see beyond seeing itself,
to reach and feel within the breast.
