No kidding! The Qur'an is a revised counterfeit of 6th century polytheism, composed of previously existing pagan beliefs, practices and fairy tales In other words Muhammad did not preach anything new. Everything he taught had been believed and practiced in Arabia long before he was ever born. Even the idea of "only one God" was borrowed from the Jews and the Christians. The Koran says men were turned into apes because they broke the Sabbath. This was a popular legend in Muhammad's day (Suras 2:65; 7:163-166).

# The Quran repeats fanciful Arabian fables as if they were true.
# "Arabic legends about the fabulous jinns fill its pages" (G.G. Pfander, Balance of Truth, pp. 283).
# "The story of the she-camel who leapt out of a rock and became a prophet was known long before Muhammad" (Suras 7:73-77,85; 91:14; 54:29).
# The story of an entire village of people who were turned into apes because they broke the sabbath by fishing was a popular legend in Muhammad's day (Suras 2:65; 7:163-166).
# The gushing 12 springs story found in Sura 2:60 comes from pre-Islamic legends.
# In what is called the "Rip Van Winkle" story, seven men and their animals slept for 309 years in a cave and then woke up perfectly fine (Sura 18:9-26)! This legend is found in Greek and Christian fables as well as Arabian lore.

The tale of Abraham being delivered from Nimrod's fire came from the Midrash Rabbah (see Suras 21:51-71; 29:16, 17; 37:97,98).
It must be also pointed out that Nimrod and Abraham did not live at the same time. Muhammad was always mixing people together in the Quran who did not live at the same time.

Islam is a moralistic, rationalistic form of religion emphasizing the works of righteousness as a means of acceptability before God. Kraemer says that it is a "legalistic religion in which everything hangs upon the efforts of the believer and on whether he fulfills the requirements of the Divine Law. Thus it is, so to say, a religion permeated by a form — a somewhat inflected form — of self-deliverance, self-justification and self-sanctification with, in the end, no firm and settled basis for it.

Thank you for your great words;
"Islam is a moralistic, rationalistic form of religion emphasizing the works of righteousness as a means of acceptability before God."
AlQur'aan
Sûrat Al-Mâ’idah
(The Table spread with Nourishment) V
In the Name of Allâah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
82. Verily, you will find the strongest among men in enmity to the Believers; the Jews and those who are Al-Mushrikûn-pagans and you will find the nearest in love to the Believers; those who say: "We are those that follow IsaIbnMaryam-Christians." That is because among them are priests and monks who are not prideful.
83. And when those that follow IsaIbnMaryam amoung the Christians listen to what has been sent down to the Messenger Mohamed, you see their eyes overflowing with tears because of the Truth they have recognised. They say: "Our Lord! We believe; so write us down among the witnesses.
84. "And why should we not Believe in Allâah and in that which has come to us of the Truth-Monotheism? And we wish that our Lord will admit us in Paradise on the Day of Resurrection along with the righteous people-Prophet Mohamed Õáì Çááå Úáíå æÓáã and his Companions ÑÖí Çááå Úäåã."

While the devout Muslim believes with all of his heart that the rituals and doctrines of Islam are entirely heavenly in origin and thus cannot have any earthly sources, Middle East scholars have demonstrated beyond all doubt that every ritual and belief in Islam can be traced back to pre-Islamic Arabian culture.
In other words Muhammad did not preach anything new. Everything he taught had been believed and practiced in Arabia long before he was ever born. Even the idea of "only one God" was borrowed from the Jews and the Christians.

hammad incorporated parts of the religion of the Sabeans into Islam (Encyclopedia off Islam (ed. Eliade), pp. 303ff.; International Standard Bible Encyclopedia, pp. 1:219ff.).
He adopted such pagan rituals as:
* Worshiping at Kabah
* Praying five times a day towards Mecca (Muhammad chose five of the same times the Sabeans prayed).
* Fasting for part of a day for an entire month.

Muhammad derived some of his ideas from Eastern religions such as Zoroastrianism and Hinduism. All of these things were in existence long before Muhammad was born.
The Quran records the following things which are ascribed to Muhammad but in reality were previously known stories now attributed to him for the first time (Sell, Studies, pp. 219ff.).
* The story of a flying trip through seven heavens.
* The Houries of paradise.
* Azazil and other spirits coming up from Hades.
* The "light" of Muhammad.
* The bridge of Sirat.
* Paradise with its wine, women, and song (from the Persians).
* The king of death.
* The peacock story.
