A commenter on the thread about The Odd Assumption of Islam as Monolith writes:
Yeah, that particular religion can’t be compared to the other great religions, not straight up. I’ve listened to those who claim that you MUST read the holy book in arabic, for example, and other translations and usages are substandard.
I’m no expert on Judaism, but wouldn’t many Orthodox Jews conclude that to fully understand the Torah you need to read it in Hebrew? I’m not sure they’d have the same theological explanation for this as Muslims would, but wouldn’t they still insist (in a way that Christians generally do not) that translations of the Torah are in some measure “substandard”?
