How did the Koran influence Muslim culture?
Koran is holy book of Muslims. in each religion we have all orders ( doing and not doing, and knowledge about where we are , and where we are go to be in, and what we must do in this place ,...) of God. some times gathered in a book , like Holy Koran.
so Koran have the plan for a human life in this world to be successful according to standards he get about success.
in koran we have all about boundary of coating, way of acting with other( don't tell what is not true or you are in debt , don't tell bad thing, tribute to parent, .... ), circumstances of buying and selling and ways of invalidate or circumstances of validity , act with other people in other religion or people who don't believe in God, .. , division of finance of a man after his death, encouragement about giving knowledge, provisions of marriage , manner of steerage children, .... ,
knowledge about God and about our life and manner of being thankful in God in his all thing that gives to us, ...
and so Koran make a Islamic culture that Muslims life in it and act in it, also it brings many knowledge that is basis of this life.
How has he shari'ah changed over the years?
Islam has two main part of sharia laws.
primary (principals) and secondary.
principals are fixed and never change
secondary are flexible and depend on new conditions.
also Islam and Koran has a high potential of different interpretations and when an Islamic government is established the government can interpret the Koran as wishes and some governments differ the laws according to their benefits and not according to true meaning of Koran.
at time of prophet only prophet could interpret the Koran but after him different scholars made differed interpretations and so different sects in Islam.
prophet said: after me my people become 73 sects.
shia Muslims believe only interpretation of 14 infallible are valid.
they are prophet and his daughter Fatemah and 12 infallible Imam. (peace on them)
Chinese Korans
Although China has become one of the great exporting powerhouses and generally imports made in China are of decent quality, the Chinese have had occasional trouble with defective or tainted products. Nothing made in China could cause as much controversy as defective Korans, as this article from Jihad Watch relates.
Allan commands you to spray the unbelievers: Iran furious at cheap Chinese-made Qur’ans said to be riddled with typos
On second thought, maybe that’s where all this “misunderstanding” of Islam is coming from! Now, Islamic interest groups can blame bad Chinese reprints. “Iran says cheap “Made in China” Qurans full of typos,” by Patrick Winn for Global Post, August 31:
Iran’s Organization of the Holy Quran is scolding Iranian publishers who’ve outsourced production of the holy book to Chinese printers.
There is officially a cheap Chinese knockoff of everything.
Apparently, their copies of the Quran are riddled with typos, according to the Tehran Times.
“These tableaus are made quite cheaply in China but are sold for much more than they are really worth to make that much more profit,” said an official with the organization who monitors and evaluates Qurans available in Iran.
The official even urged importers to halt future Quran shipments from China, the Times reported….
They should look on the bright side. I doubt if the Chinese Korans tell people “Thou shalt commit adultery” like the Wicked Bible does.
Who is “Allan” anyway?

Iran: Cheap Qurans from China filled with typos
Iranian publishers are complaining that cost-saving plans to print Qurans (Korans) in China are yielding embarrassing results: A slew of typos.
The head of Iran's Quran oversight office says some of the Chinese-printed versions of Islam's holy book are littered with spelling errors.
Ahmad Haji-Sharif is quoted by Iran's semiofficial Mehr news agency as warning consumers that lower-cost Qurans may have mistakes in the holy verses. He noted earlier this week that Iranian-produced Qurans carry a higher price but have passed a careful inspection for any flaws.
Officials are now discussing a ban on Chinese-printed Qurans.
The Qurans that are in use in Iran often have both Farsi and the original Arabic.
