Why people recommend it
The Koran is the central religious text of Islam, believed by Muslims to be the revelation of God. The text has appeared in various contexts across several podcast episodes. On Invest Like the Best, Lior Susan referenced the text while discussing how radical organizations twist its verses to support their own ideological agendas and propaganda. Meanwhile, an episode of My First Million included a discussion listing the Koran among the top-selling books of all time, putting it alongside texts like the Bhagavad Gita and the Bible. Stephen Dubner addressed the book on Freakonomics Radio, pointing out that the Koran and the resulting religious unity played a significant role in the historical spread and prominence of the Arabic language. In another episode of Freakonomics Radio, Mubeen Sheikh suggested that the Koran should be included among the great books studied by young people, a sentiment that led Stephen Dubner to further consider the general educational value of teaching people about the religious text.
