Quote:I wanted to share that I received my very own Quran. It is very nice with Arabic and the translation beside it. I work with a Muslim who unfortunately (because of his religion) is not always treated with respect.
Here in the USA many associate Islam with terrorism, that is what is force feed through the media. I know this to be untrue with true Islam. There will always be extremists in any religion or philosophy, however that does mean that is the true representation of the organization.
I am in management where I work, I have had many discussions with one of my employees Mosi Shakur. He is Muslim and we hit it off immediately. He knows I am atheist but yet we are friends who share intimate things.
He presented me with a gift today, a Quran of my own. I have read the Quran online but do not own a copy. He gave it too me when I gave him a ride home from work. I thought this very kind of him and thanked him.
Just thought I would share some information here!
Peace to all
