Actually, instead of saying that the Bible, which says the world is flat, is true, I would actually look into Islam. Instead of saying that Israa-al-Miraj (I believe it's called), is BS, I suggest finding out what it actually, truly, 100% is. That ending part just shows your ignorance of the religion.
Summary: You did not cover the event at all except for the part which you say is "legit as fuck".
Next: This proves your ignorance even further.
Islam is in between creationism and evolution. God is called "The Evolver" in the Quran. Islam believes evolution is very well possible. Some Muslims believe that evolution occurred, but God helped it along.
Bottom line: Muslims don't blatantly say "Evolution is impossible". Muslims don't say "Muhammad flies to space on a magic horse". You only displayed your ignorance with this post.
Extra: I've looked at these things myself, as I am a devout Muslim, and you do not know the half of it.

Okey first of all i am a muslim woman and i would like to point out a few things
1. No translation of the quran is accurate unless you take the whole context behind it under consideration.
2. Here the word fight does not literally mean to beat up non muslims, believe it or not most of my friends are non muslims and even though i do think their religion is wrong and would love to see them convert i would never want to harm them physically. It means to struggle or confront them.
3. The word tax here is wrong. It is called 'Jizya' which was applied to able non muslims males, they were supposed to give a part of their income so they can be protected as they were a minority. We muslims, are obliged to pay taxes in the name of zakat, so this was a rule applied to non muslims that they have to pay taxes in order to live in a muslim city and it has to be forced upon them.
Other than the women issue, it is a whole new topic .. my dad is an orthodox muslim ( the one with a huge beard and stuff) and never once in my life forced me to do anything against my will except to tell me to dress modestly.

you're right. instead it has 3 different accounts of creation, so it can't even decide how the universe was created. It leaves two accounts of how the hebrews escaped egypt, one where the pharaoh dies and another where he lives and says that the sun sets in a swamp. totally not bullshit

doesn't outright say that it's flat. it talks about four corners (hemispheres), people being shown 'all the kingdoms' (only implies it, plus if ya got high enough you could still see them, flat or round), and all the stuff about the earth being planted has nothing to do with flatness. he also blocked me cuz he was being a little bitch, but that's a different story.

You're exactly correct. When looking at the translation from the original Hebrew text, it can be translated a bit differently than "four corners," and is a meant to be metaphorical. Plus people need to realize that the Bible never claims to have been written by God; it was written by humans, who are fallible, and could have easily thought something incorrect.
