[Faith-talk] Koran question

[Fr. John Sheehan]

Islam says the Koran can only be read in the original Arabic. No translation is 
approved. 

Of course, the Koran is only one of the three documents that make up the 
foundation of Islam - and is only about 16% of the total. Unlike the Christian 
Bible, the Koran is not the only source of belief and practice.

Yesterday is
A path well-trod,
A familiar lane
Through sacred sod,
A road we travel
Too often, I fear,
For there are the good times
When things are hard here,
