You can read the Koran as a COMBAT doctrines text book which covers how soldiers running away from enemies will be punished. Those who fought and died will be rewarded handsomely in heaven. The Koran gives muslim soldiers permission to behead 'attacking' side in the name of 'defence', meaning when the opponent side countered a muslim attack, the muslim soldiers can behead them in 'self-defence'.
72 virgins is mentioned not in just one hadiths, but a few. Our islamists
@Loofydralb and
@Likemeat would come in to defend saying they are unauthentic fake hadiths.
How can they be fake when they are SO in line with the narrative of the Koran?
