Christopher Hitchens: Islam

This is an excerpt from the chapter "The Koran Is Borrowed from Both Jewish and Christian Myths" of the book "God is Not Great" by Christopher Hitchens.

In this chapter, he assesses the religion of Islam and examines the origin of its holy book, the Quran. Hitchens asserts that there is no evidence for any of the "miraculous" claims about Muhammad and that the Koran's origin was not supernatural. He contends that the religion was fabricated by Muhammad or his followers and that it was borrowed from other religious texts, and the hadith was taken from common maxims and sayings which developed throughout Arabia and Persia at the time. He identifies similarities between Islam and Christianity and notes several plagiarisms of the Jewish faith.
