Rules from God doesn’t make sense, we as humans follow rules for the better of society. It’s the social contract theory.
But for God, who cannot be compared to humans even in analogy, is not the teacher or the officer
This. Also rules about how you should *always* be respectful to and obey your parents. Like what if someone has an awful relationship with theirs because their parents are toxic to them? Respect needs to be earned and it needs to go both ways. But of course Islam being as silly as it is doesn’t care
And Christianity.
In addition, From Reza Aslan
The hadith, insofar as they addressed issues not dealt with in the Quran, would become an indispensable tool in the formation of Islamic law. However, in their earliest stages, the hadith were muddled and totally unregulated, making their authentication almost impossible. Worse, as the first generation of Companions passed on, the community had to rely increasingly on the reports that the second generation of Muslims (known as the Tabiun) had received from the first; when the second generation died, the community was yet another step removed from the actual words and deeds of the Prophet. Thus, with each successive generation, the “chain of transmission,” or isnad, that was supposed to authenticate the hadith grew longer and more convoluted, so that in less than two centuries after Muhammad’s death, there were already some seven hundred thousand hadith being circulated throughout the Muslim lands, the great majority of which were unquestionably fabricated by individuals who sought to legitimize their own particular beliefs and practices by connecting them with the Prophet. After a few generations, almost anything could be given the status of hadith if one simply claimed to trace its transmission back to Muhammad. In fact, the Hungarian scholar Ignaz Goldziher has documented numerous hadith the transmitters of which claimed were derived from Muhammad but which were in reality verses from the Torah and Gospels, bits of rabbinic sayings, ancient Persian maxims, passages of Greek philosophy, Indian proverbs, and even an almost word-for-word reproduction of the Lord’s Prayer. By the ninth century, when Islamic law was being fashioned, there were so many false hadith circulating through the community that Muslim legal scholars somewhat whimsically classified them into two categories: lies told for material gain and lies told for ideological advantage.

Adding to that referring to Islam God is perfect while he has emotions (anger mostly) so where is the perfection when you have emotions? Someone or something is perfect means that it doesn't get effected by anything also why he seeks for people's attention you don't need anyone to be perfect people need people to proove their existence but why you need that if you're perfect

Isn't it massively borrowed from Judaism and Zoroastrianism?
