It is also important to note that Muhammad is not worshiped as a God.  The Muslims are monotheistic.  The Qur'an states that God has no equals, nor was he begotten by a greater being, ''nor has he begotten any other being.''  Muslims may occasionally view Jesus and the Holy Spirit as infringing on God's divinity.  The Christian doctrine of the Holy Trinity is regarded as tantamount to polytheism by Muslims.

The Qur'an was revealed to the Prophet [[Muhammad]] in what the Angel said was "clear Arabic."  This has come to mean (for many reasons) that Arabic is the most beautiful language of all.  The Qur'an also contains a challenge: if you do not believe that the Qur'an is the word of God, try to make something just as beautiful and good as it!  This is the doctrine of inimitability (no copy can be made), or "i'jaz."  These two doctrines, along with the inherent difficulty of translation, severely limit the value of translations of the Qur'an.  In other words, the only Qur'an is the Arabic Qur'an.  English versions of the Qur'an are regarded as commentaries.
