Diving back into history, the god of the muslims had, at one time, three daughters (who were to be worshipped as goddesses), until their "prophet" decided he was tricked by the devil into revealing to everyone about god's three daughters.
I started reading the Qur'an about the time I started on this forum, and I would call this a mis-characterization at best. It states that one should follow Christ, and admits the sanctity of the Pentateuch. While it is written from a different pov, Christians have all the same concepts, and one, even Dordt, would be hard pressed to point to a single passage that they have any problem with.

As I'm pretty sure that all the opinions of any Muslim-haters come from Fox news, and not the Qur'an, I would invite you to post any passages, including any about Fatherhood, that you might have a problem with. When context is taken into consideration, these passages become clear; unless, of course, you pray to Christ (or Mary), or have some other Romish problem.
