From Daily Galaxy - it is more of raisins than 72 virgins
A Muslim scholar was recently interviewed at CNN at GPS by Fareed Zakaria. She was kicked out of school for Muslim for being gay. She said however that the interpretation of Islam should be corrected. For instance, the 72 virgin reward for jihadist. It was wrong. It more of 72 raisins. (This did not come from Quran but from unreliable hadids)
When there are killings and violence in the name of jihadist and Muslim, the moderates are quick to defend the offenders. And apologize. But we all know that Quran asked the offenders/jihadists to do just what they did.
Quotes:
According to an Islam tradition, Muslim martyrs will go to paradise and marry 72 black-eyed virgins. But some Koran scholars point to a less sexy paradise. While beautifully written, Islamic texts are often obscure. The Arabic language was born as a written language with the Koran, and growing evidence suggests that many of the words were Syriac or Aramaic.
Specifically, the Koran says martyrs going to heaven will get “hur,” and the word was taken by early commentators to mean “virgins,” hence those 72 concubines. But in Aramaic, hur actually meant “white” and was commonly used to specifically mean “white grapes.”
So if every man gets at least 2 black-eyed virgins in paradise, each of whom comes with 70 servant girls who also are virgins, that means each man gets at least 142 virgins, not 72 virgins.
It gets better if you’re a Muslim man who’s married.
As the looney-tune cleric says, with a blissfully insane smile: “If you get married in this world, then [in paradise], you get your wife from this world, along with 70 black-eyed virgins with whom you are allowed to have sex, and each of these 70 virgins comes with 70 servant girls. So how many women do you get? That’s the minimum.”
Answer: 70 x 70 = 4,900
Truly, Islam is a cult for morons.
Are the Quran passages referring to raisins?
